New ARAM PSA! (Learn how to ban)

NAFB·4/8/2019, 2:17:39 PM·2 votes·945 views

Hello ARAM community,

Please stop banning only good champions. This is not like draft where you try to get rid of things that counter you, or are overtuned champs. By banning good champs, you make it more likely to get garbage. The gamemode is less fun now that I have 9 less fun champions to play every game.

Thanks

Edit: Did not expect the ARAM community to hate playing fun champions so much. I thought people would see this post and go, "Oh yeah that DOES make sense." And then ban Lee Sin, or Olaf, or Kayn, Nunu, Zed, Elise, Riven, Morde, Udyr, Xin, and many more. Yes I know those champions can still fight, but those are some of the most rerolled champions in the mode, and by banning 9 fun champions you make it more likely to get those inting useless melees.

Anyway, carry on community. I know I for one will be playing less ARAM now that it takes longer to get into game, and am less likely to have fun.

Well, let's either A) unlock all the roster for everyone B) let everyone limit their roster to what they want to play C) Keep all the 57%+ winrate champs permabanned on a patch to patch basis

If we don't do any of those, bans is the next best option

No, you ban the champions that will fuck you five ways till Friday in the gauntlet that is ARAM. Champions like Lux, Veigar, Illaoi, Vel'Koz, Heimderdinger, Sona, and Zyra who can, with little to no effort, turn the tide of a team fight by either trapping you in a tight box and wiping your team with massive skill shots and zone effects.

Remember, if you're banning the "good" champions, that applies to you AND your opponents.

You know, i hear the exact opposite quite a bit. This is actually the first time I have EVER heard this arguement.

Kinda nice tbh. Plus makes sense too.
