URF is too toxic to enjoy anymore.

Repeated queue dodging, running it down mid, opening mid, afk'ing on spawn pad, flamming people for build choices, and harassing players about their performance on a champ they may have never even played before. These are the things that every single match I have played of Urf has consisted of. How people can take a game mode as goofy and silly as URF and turn it into something so toxic it makes my ranked games look like a prayer circle is beyond me. There is nothing in league of legends goofier than URF. There is nothing in league that is supposed to be taken less seriously than URF. When you lose a match, it doesn't even say defeat on the post screen, it says 2nd place. Beginner bot matches have a more serious tone than this, and people are just absolutely acidic.

Ofc people will que dodge in ARurf cuz they dont want to spend 20min suffering instead of enjoying the game (mostly caused by matches being won without the game even starting due to RNG picking all the champs) , but the sad thing is that some people are "forced" to play it because it is the closest thing to the old urf there is, and you cant really blame them for wanting to have fun while playing the game.

there is a justified frustration with the state of the game (arurf). 10 bans urf at least allowed us to ban the most op champions that made the game a tilt fest (which it is now) - riven, ekko, zed, diana are just some mentions.

now you get handed a random champion ( "random". got handed MF and caitlyn 4 times in a row each, and I don't even play adc) that's for the most part useless in urf (seriously, check any urf tier list and it will list a total of 20 champions in the S and A tiers, at most). even if you get handed an op champion (zed, for instance), but you never played him, you're most likely going to suck and it's just a frustrating ordeal.

Let us pick our champion (I play 3-4 champions at most, all the time). Let us ban 1 champion of our individual choice. Let the game play itself out. We'd feel far less frustrated with that, than "let's make it balanced.. hmm.. by making a bullshit RNG random mode that isn't really RNG and all the frustration that comes with it, we'll just ignore!"
