Inb4 ARAM is removed and put into RGM

I received a survey on my email which is associated with my LoL account.

They asked me random questions at first concerning my age and what not. A nice little diversion for what they had stored on the next pages.

All about ARAM.

''Do you like ARAM'' ''Do you play ARAM'' ''Do I intend on playing ARAM more often'' ''How often do I currently play it''

I know where you are going with that shit, Rito. Be straightforward about it. Are you going to remove ARAM as a permanent game mode to increase SR player base? To reduce queue times? So you can point at it and shout ''Hue hue lok Dinermic Q wurks gaise!''

I see you coming. Just wait.

Well if they remove ARAM.... myself and many other players will probably stop playing this game. Most of their rotating modes aren't that fun, and even ones that were recently fun (e.g. Ascension) they have for some reason changed into chit.

That would only increase the level of toxic players on SR. My bet is that they will remove Twisted Treeline.

But... but there's already Poro King... that's just aram with a big fluffer instead of lots of tiny ones...

ARAM has become an official mode of LOL's gameplay. I don't know if there is any ranked form of it, but Riot has embraced it and made it official. They wouldn't remove it unless it had a severe drop in games played or another way of it dropping in popularity. The reason (As far as I know) that Dominion got the axe was because it was hardly being played.

ARAM's playerbase is huge though. There's no way they'd make it a RGM. Dominion? Dominion was tiny. TT? TT also has a miniscule population comparative to SR. But ARAM? ARAM is enormous.

I know people say stuff like "if they remove TT, I will literally quit this game"...but if Riot removed ARAM as a permanent game mode, I think I actually WOULD....LITERALLY quit this game.

While I don't play it every single day, it is the best thing when you want to play, but don't want to deal with Metas, roles, or Ranked. It is a great anti-tilt mode for when you lose a few games in ranked and want to chill. It is also great if you want to "warm up" instead of just diving into a ranked game.

Will likely keep watching LCS and so on, cause I do like the game, but if ARAM goes away into just the "you'll see this mode once every two months" queue (seriously, half the time it is poro king, or all for one, and I could care less about ever seeing poro king again), I won't bother logging in.

Inb4 Riot's Ask Riot page has a section about how "People aren't playing ARAM enough and we might make it a RGM" and then sabotage it.

I very very very much doubt they would remove aram. Its incredibly popular. Most people have a few hundred games on it, compared to dominon which most people only ever played like 3 times.

That's fine they'll shoot themselves in the foot just as battlefield 1 comes out.

or maybe they're actively working on changing the gamemode because, if you didn't assume and use your brain, you'd see that they changed a lot of the features several patches ago.

ARAM / dominion was the only reason that kept me playing this crap. Hell no im gonna play that SR farmville for 20minutes before the match even starts , same map, etc

Morbazan8/18/2016, 12:02:10 AM2 votes

I've played since 2009, played ARAM since it started in customs, and i stopped playing Rift almost entirely when HA was released. If they take my ARAM I'm definitely calling it quits..

Asudurga8/18/2016, 7:54:18 AM2 votes

I made the same point using Dominion as an example, and yet I got shat on and downvoted for it.

Well who's laughing now? I WAS RIGHT! Riot is planning to get rid of ARAM eventually!

balbraaksel8/18/2016, 10:41:42 AM2 votes

I really strongly doubt they'd do that with ARAM, it's played quite a lot. It's more likely they're trying to get statistics on ARAM accounts vs accounts that own all champions to find out whether that has a negative impact on the fun on ARAM or not.

Lmao, i have lower Q times on Aram than normal blind. Aram is not remotely underplayed to not be a permanent mode

Man, all I want is for them to bring back Doom Bots. That shit was so fun.
