This is based on the new PBE Update:

Warmogs is an invaluable item for certain team comps. In fact, it might be the only item that makes some comps even possible/viable to fight back and win ridiculous match ups versus a poke heavy team or sustain heavy team. By removing the item, you are limiting certain team strategies to win or the ability to tank-sustain throughout a heavy fight. Allowing a complete stomping depending on the new match-up.

If you feel Warmogs is too strong of an item or making games last longer then desired. *Instead maybe limit who can buy tank items like Warmogs. But removing it completely seems like a rash decision with little explanation; IMHO.

I have had games where I have needed to buy Warmogs as a mage to survive/tank and win ARAM games; because our team wasn't given a viable tank or someone rerolled our tank.

I think ARAM isn't always about playing a champion via their meta to win. I fully believe that ARAM inspires certain outside the box builds to compete against your opponent.

I have seen things like AD Soraka, Lulu, Bard, Orianna, Ivern win games - by their off meta builds. Or ADC's who build tank items like Frozen Mallet, Spirit Visage, Warmogs, Botrk, R. Hurricane - because they were faced off against five assassins or five super tanks.

Other times you get matches where your whole team is melee. This usually goes in one of three ways. 1) Your melee team is hyper aggressive and just goes ham to win. However, this is rare win condition as most ARAM teams aren't synergized aka aggressive enough to successfully pull this off. 2) The all melee team is poked under their tower, and the game is a slow match of watching teammates gradually die and the towers crumble one by one. 3) The all melee team tanks up and buys things like Spirit Visage and Warmogs and just enough damage items to actually kill the enemy laners - and from there it could be a win or lose depending on skill during the teamfights.

Either way, this is a long drawn out story to state.... Please don't remove Warmog's from ARAM.

I honestly think its a poor decision.

Or perhaps I'm just the one random ARAM asshole who has used and abused Warmog's on Tank Ahri/Zyra/Dinger/Teemo and numerous others in order to secure an otherwise unwinnable win.

Thanks for reading.

it drags the game out to insane lengths and turns soraka into an infinite hp battery

The way I see it, no character on ARAM should be able to refill their health in under a minute. There is no fountain for a reason, to make health a scarce resource. And locking it to tanks only doesn't help 4500 HP 250 resistances tanks from becoming immortal beings.
