only one enemy alive, its insert champ with no shield/heal here you just landed a bomb on them. they have 50 hp left. finally! you get a kill! in just 3 seconds...

2 of your teammates flash and ignite the enemy, while also flashing in the enemy skillshot, both die and their ignite gets the kill

tell your teammates your bomb was a 100% kill "report zilean toxic"

welcome to zilean in aram.

Zilean is one of the best champs in ARAM, rated 13/15(so is Lux and Fiddlesticks) on the absorber+damager+helper tier list. There's no champ rated 15/15 and the only one that's rated 14/15 is Pyke. If you're going to rate them only by flexibility, then Zilean is in the top 4 champs in the game without question. He's a 4/4/5 while 12 champs are rated x/5/x and another 8 are rated 5/x/x so your allies that are higher value absorber/damager might feel trolled by you if you're trying to do their job instead of another one that your champ is capable of.

Keep in mind my tier list is not complete as I haven't rated every champion.

you should rate sona 15/15. whenever i check op.gg or other pages for the "top aram winrate champs" theres sona at nr 1 for like 4 years in a row now (no joke) and nr 2 is usually ziggs.

I don't see how she is a 5/5/5 but my current rating on her could perhaps use some tweaking. In any case I have her marked at a 3/3/5 (so that means 11/15) which I think is pretty reasonable. If you've got an argument for bumping her up or some stats screenshots to share that could change my mind, go for it.

I wouldn't focus too much on the out of 15 part since it's a team composition flexibility strength rating. And really, at 11/15, that's actually very good already. I got Orianna for example marked as a 4/4/3 and Jax as a 4/3/4 so they got the same 11/15 rating that Sona has and yet Sona is a higher rated helper than either of them are rated for absorber, damager, or helper.

Ziggs is a 2/5/3, which amounts to a flex strength rating of 10/15. Which goes to show you that a flexibility rating is not all that important(because he actually has a higher win rate than Sona does). However, I have to mention, I think ease of playing the champion has more impact on their win rate than their power when played well. There are a lot of casual players playing ARAM and they don't bother to learn details about most/all the champs they play so it's understandable that easier champs would have higher win rates.
