Anyone else feel like ARAM games were a bit Lopsided? (Pre Bilgewater)

90% of my ARAM games ended up with extremely lopsided teams. One would have Heimerdinger Teemo Amumu Blitzcrank Xerath while the other had champions such as Udyr Taric Warwick Singed Rammus. It was so ridiculous how they used to be. It's like the game was trying REALLY hard to keep you at a 50% win ratio.

As of the bilgewater update, ive only seen one game where the teams have been somewhat like that out of the good few that I have played. And for that, Id like to say: Thank You Rito for fixing something that most people didnt even see as a problem (even though it clearly was).

Just a guess, more people playing ARAM without ARAM specific accounts means a more diverse pool of champions to be picked upon. I'll say this tho been lovely not having it be 1v2 +bots

You can be also sure to get a lot of AFKers as soon as you step a bit above the 50% win rate ;)

that's the whole point of ARAM...you simply don't know who you'll get, and the larger the champion pool you have the more like you'll get someone who isn't good on howling abyss

What's funny is that I had an heavily over 50% win ratio in ARAM before the Bilgewater changes. Despite having gotten Rek'Sai twice.

I'll throw this out there. I saw about 3-4 months ago a lot of lopsided team comps and they would go as expected. However, here lately I've seen comps that should've crushed it get crushed or go toe to toe rather well. I think if you have a certain grasp on mechanics and with the right players on the team even a lopsided comp can be a crushing victory.

just build full tank regardless of the champ you play and then their poke comps can do shit
