VOIPing in ARAM/premades in aram

regarding topic:

I was playing an ARAM game today when it became apparent that the opposing team was just too well coordinated to be playing as randoms. They were kicking our butt, but this is ARAM and this is to be expected.

A random teammate from my team started calling the other team cheaters for using VOIP to assist their gameplay, also saying that since they were premade this was considered cheating too as we were a team of randoms.

Is this a rule? Legit question, this dude then proceeded to threaten reporting them as cheaters etc... and he seemed awfully serious about the topic. Or this dude just not have any friends =.=;;;

It makes me wonder what the situation is; am I cheating as I play in the same room as my partner IRL, with our computers pretty much perpendicular to each other? We shout at each other IRL all the time when we are in ARAM...

If you weren't allowed premades in ARAM, it would only allow you to queue solo. Of course there's no rule against it. Same with using voice chat - League even has it's own implemented voice chat these days. Don't let some angry player scare you away from enjoying the game with your friends :)

Lol wut? How is it cheating for having a 5 man ARAM? League has voice chat as well now. I play 5 man arams sometimes with my friends since we want quick games if someone needs to get off. Dw dude ur not cheating, I dunno what the other guys problem is tho. Claiming someone is cheating in an ARAM lol. The only time I reported a team is when in a teamfight our whole team ( not premade btw) lagged at the same time in solo queue. We all got the same spike at the same time. The enemy on the other hand didn't cuz they never seem to be bothered by it.

I've played in the same room as teammates, over Teamspeak, Ventrillo, Skype, Discord, and LoL's voice chat. The only time I've ever heard about a problem 3rd party comm was a few years ago, and it was because it included automatic jungle timers before Riot added them and (I think) Fog of War info, not because players could voice chat.

Nothing wrong with using comms effectively, and I wouldn't be so quick to even assume that's what happened. Some ARAM teams just click. I had a great game not too long ago where my TF teammate would ult to their back line and perfectly set up my Galio ult on top of their team, and we certainly looked damn clean doing it, but we didn't know each other and were only pinging cooldowns to coordinate.
