@RIOT FIX YOUR ARAM GRADING SYSTEM. (RANT) Post game letter grade
As a ARAM main I find it disgusting that it's so difficult for me to unlock boxes of achieving a S. I can't unlock them via Co op V AI because for some reason Riot decided it has to be PVP. Now as a ARAM main I don't even touch summoners 5v5 unless missions come out with rewards. Besides that there have been multiple occasions in which I do think I deserve a S but gotten a A.
Clarification It seems I need to add some clarification just due to the fact im getting down voted. The examples (pictures) I have showed and replays I have provided are to prove my points The pictures are to highlight my kda, cs, etc. The gameplay is to show my impact on these games.
Now people are telling me the percentile of which you are graded on is why I wasn't given a S. I understand this but IT stems from summoners rift. Meaning it is intended for you in summoners rift to get a similar result of replicating the same top percentile's.
With that said ARAM is a different game thus should not be graded the same way. There is only one lane, less cs, shorter games (in general), less objectives, no jungle, and different meta comps. Meaning the correlation of having been graded with standard of "summoners rift" or comparing to top percentile rather than your own is irrelevant because the same things are not in the same way that rift can get a player the same S as another. You cannot try and republicate that S due to the fact of having different champions on your and different CIRCUMSTANCES. They vary WAY to MUCH so it's more logically to have YOUR impact/KDA on the game rather then the top percentile. I hope this articulating the "fix".
Now to keep short and simple there is still a relation of summoners rift 5v5 to ARAM 5v5. Champion wise it would be the role you have, cs, performance, "you do need to perform better than the other aram players that have played the same champion".

Cs is also directly linked to ARAM grades. https://imgur.com/mwttTym
Yet my K/D/A is this game with blitz only got a A. https://imgur.com/ENrBc08
I will some more examples of games where I should have gotten a S. https://imgur.com/bRUC1Ao https://imgur.com/ifLG4JO https://imgur.com/RFQL97C https://imgur.com/mmI9BW2 https://imgur.com/xWLHZV1 https://imgur.com/bxLaweA https://imgur.com/S7UrIP1 https://imgur.com/7LEEcbU https://imgur.com/ZWUz9Iz
Now clearly in K/D/A some might well I can see why you got a "A". But if you watch CLEARLY the GAME PLAY aspect you can see that I deserve a S.
Now here are the actually games posted to dropbox. You don't have to watch all them just a couple of mins https://www.dropbox.com/s/kptpectvh5jacpa/NA1-2658676663.rofl?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/r7q8royrm96rxy9/NA1-2658681096.rofl?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/t96rqf707yqy4sd/NA1-2658826513.rofl?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/7fryzcn0he2qqqk/NA1-2659837596.rofl?dl=0
Final Thoughts: Riot you need to adjust and fix the grading system for LoL on ARAM. CS should not play a part. The fact that games ARE WAY SHORTER make cs a almost useless attribute to grading along with teams able to zone or teammates messing up cs. It should not individual effect your grade. K/D/A should be what your graded on rather then being a top % of player in ARAM to get a S. There is way more control in a 5v5 summoners rift game then a ARAM game to be able to achieve the scores of how it currently is for a S. ARAM is significantly different and should be graded exactly on the impact you have had on the game along with the K/D/A you finished with. Please riot FIX YOUR GRADING IN ARAM it is not correct right now!
Clarification#2 It seems I need to add some clarity (pun) due to be down voted. The correlation that is measured by a S of performance as to other players in ARAM cannot be the same. The reason is because there is to much variance to "doing better" as opposed to having the same impact/KDA.
Roles You cannot have a adc and in part of cs included to be graded on in ARAM. One there is only ONE lane the purpose to killing these wave is to push it into the tower. While Rift has the same purpose they different reasons. In that you can wait around and wait for the minion to get low but your team in ARAM will push the wave. Or it's that you want them to push the wave so that you can get the gank off, can "freeze" the wave, or are having a farming lane. ARAM reasons for pushing are different in that when you do push the significant difference is not farming for gold like in RIFT it is PUSHING FURTHER into the tower.
Cannot have the same "percentile" to be measured for the impact/K/D/A While someone might have done currently better in these standards of ARAM for a S they do not include the same face value of effect you have on the game. If you take my game for the Blitzcrank 4/1/21 I for sure can tell you whoever has gotten a S I have just as well had the same impact/effect (watch the replay ; if you have watched it im begging tell how I did not deserve a S as opposed to someone else who has gotten a S with blitz) or in fact any of the games I provided my replays for. Yet for some odd reason did not get the same grading. This is why they should change the grading system in ARAM to your own individually play.
