Gangplank and ARAM

Palaven··8 votes·1,901 views

The amount of serpent tokens needed to upgrade should be drastically reduced. ARAM is a sped up game and players don't have their own lanes. You'll be lucky to get one upgrade (500 tokens) in an ARAM game. Often with GP you can only get one, maybe two, Parrrley kills per wave. You may have teammates with massive wave clear or you may be engaged in fighting the enemy. Its simply too tough right now.

Well, lets be real. The game is not and will never be balanced around ARAM.

I honestly think the serpent pricing may be a little too steep initially as is, but I also think that's intentional for balancing on the safer side. They probably want to see You need ~100 shots with Parrrley for an upgrade (this does go down as the game goes on).

Overall, I think it's a good pricing. I remember regularly getting over 1000 gold farmed with Parrrley back when I played. But that definitely came mid-late game when I wasn't so worried about laning. I think that 250 - 500 - 750 would be a better progression.

So I find this to be a really weak argument since the only change that would need to take place is lowering the price of the tokens to like 250 or 300. No balancing or fine tuning required.

But can't it be? Dom and TT have champ specific balance? Why can't ARAM? Don't tell me it's just aram... there's a metagame that exists, and it can be more balanced.

Ever feel like nobody takes you seriously?

I keep saying the same thing. The upgrades need a reduced cost in ARAM.
