I've been playing a lot of ARAM lately..

I generally get into short bursts where ARAM is the only mode that is fun to me, but I've been playing ARAM for about two weeks now, and after losing my last ranked game, I realized that I have more of a problem with the juggernaut patch than I thought I did!

It really isn't fun having 10+ champions that are absolutely a complete dread to play against... not a challenge, not a "Lets see whos the better player," but a "Oh God I hope they are really, really bad because I don't see how we have a chance" feeling. I know a lot of you are going to talk to me about having a positive attitude and believe me I am a positive attitude kind of person. My family has been into the power of positive thinking my entire life.. Our "The Bible" is essentially Norman Vincent Peale's The Power of Positive Thinking, my favorite book in the world is Maxwell Maltz's Psycho-Cybernetics (just a weird sounding positive thinking book that likens the brain to a computer, which it really is anyway). I am a positive player.

The thing is the juggernaut concept is an amazing idea, I loved it the moment I heard about it... It's first iteration, thus far, has ruined my motivation to even attempt more than a blind Team Builder, where at least if I am going to get decimated by a Fiora or Darius, I am going to play the lane and champion I want. But even now... those have become too "Well unless I queue into a group with 1 or more of these champions, we're going to have a very difficult time" and so I've just been ARAMing instead. I was completely unaware of it until I thought about it just today.

I do wonder how worlds is going to fare.. if these new "OP" champs (and believe me, again, I am using OP after heavy consideration and still putting it into quotes because it's not a term I enjoy using) are going to determine matches or if they're going to stick to what they know and maybe we won't see the juggernauts hurl themselves into the decision.

That's all. I am not saying get rid of the juggernauts, I am just ranting about a realization I had. No need to suffocate me with downvotes ;P
