ARAS (formerly known as ARAM) snowball nerfs 5.10

I personally haven't played ARAM since the snowball addition in 5.8.

By looking at the numbers, it appears that the snowball may now be less overbearing but still very critical to all ARAM strategy (and still be ARAS as opposed to ARAM). Since it appears that RIOT has no intention of removing this from ARAM, I want to know if the most recent nerfs do enough to make ARAM playable again for the ARAM traditionalists?

I believe is does. No more getting finished by a snowball, cooldowns are lowered, and like any new thing, the hype is over by and large and plenty of people have gone back to heal and whatnot.

You still see alot, but not everyone is taking it if they have no reason.

The nerfs were heavily needed. Now its generally only picked by the champions who need it like Udyr . Simply because its not worth it anymore on anyone else.
