Please get rid of weekly champions for ARAM.

Seriously, I'm fine with the random bullshit but can we at least play with the champions we actually like to play with instead of whatever crap we get in the weekly free rotation?

It would be even better if we could make our own selection of champions the random number generator would use to pick a champion from. Just set a minimum number of champion to have a viable selection for the mode, something that could be filled with just the weekly free rotation, that guaranties the randomness and makes sure everybody could play it.

Please Riot, there are so many champions I'm simply not interested in ever playing, stop forcing me to, its not fun to play with them. This can't be that hard to fix.

Id rather every champion by default be available in ARAM. yes you get champions you dislike, but it would stop the "ARAM only" accounts people make just cause they can't deal with the random aspect. I'm glad it has Free 2 Play in the rotation.

Way to completely miss the point of ARAM

Part of the point of ARAM, unless I am misinformed, is to encourage players to play with champs they normally wouldn't. I prefer ranged characters in virtually all video games, either mages, marksmen, or healers, but, I frequently get melee champions on ARAMs. If I'm unable to trade with a teammate, there's always rerolls, and if not that, then I simply do my best to work with what I've got. If nothing else, you're getting to learn the moves of these champions first hand, and will be better able to counter them in normal games. I'm with Big Bad Doge on this one. I'd love for all champs to be available on ARAMs. I've actually found out I'm decent with a few champs I would have never tried voluntarily if not for getting them in ARAM. Found myself some new "friends". =)

I agree it can SUCK to get stuck with a champion you are TERRIBLE with, but in those situations, you can always explain your difficulty to your teammates "Hey guys, I am absolute crap with ____ champion, can someone trade me?" Try to save your rerolls for these situations. The point of ARAM is not to constantly murder with your mains, it's to try new things! =)

((Although it can be lots of fun when you DO get a champ you're really good with!))

I don't complain because I want to murder stuff with champions I'm good at, I complain because I get stuck with champions that simply don't appeal to me and playing as them simply isn't any fun even when I am good with them. I don't care if I lose, I just want to have fun doing it and I can't when I have to play with champions that I don't like.

Trading doesn't always seem to work or people don't want to trade, re-rolls don't come often enough even if you safe them for the single purpose of dodging champions you don't like.

If the mode was made for the purpose of getting people to play champions they normally won't then they would have made all champions available for this mode.

The mode is made for lighthearted fun, the randomness of the mode allows for uncommon and weird team compositions that people would normally never make which leads to unconventional fights. This however should not excuse forcing people to play champions they simply don't want to play.

Then don't play ARAM. Play a different mode and click the "random" button until you get one you like.
