I've often wondered why there wasn't a ranked ARAM. Now I've been playing a LOT of it with my wife and now really wondering why after I've been playing LoL for 5yrs and Riot hasn't even tried to make an Ranked mode for ARAM.

I think it would be a certain bragging rights to be That good and competent as so many champs.

Maybe Riot could raise the number of Champions owned requirements

Not really a good idea. Games can be decided before it even starts just based on who has what champions. If they had ranked where it was the map and everyone choosed champions, then it might be a good idea. Too much RNG for ARAM to be ranked.

Can't really. Not until they do something about ARAM only accounts. Otherwise if you want to rise up in the ARAM rankings you would have to make your own ARAM only account.

Ranked ARAM won't work for as long as champions are picked from players mechanic. Make it all champions and it might work.

ARAM-optimized accounts are probably the most blatant problem. Ranked ARAM could work if Riot actually discouraged people from stacking the odds of rolling strong champs.

On the other hand, Dominion's been waiting for ranked longer than ARAM has been.

Well… let's see how this works: http://rankedaram.com/

We tried to consider the points mentioned here: how to account for RNG, how to penalize ARAM-optimized accounts, how to ensure gaining or losing rank isn't decided in champ select, and—most importantly—how to keep ARAM fun!

Ranked ARAM just launched this week. Next steps are to release features that focus on your personal gains and how you compare to the average ARAM player.

Send feedback if you have it!

Lol no.

ARAM is meant to be a joke mode for effing around. It is not meant to be balanced.
