Addition of Ranked ARAM?

I was thinking while spending some time on the Howling Abyss that maybe it would be a fun idea to add a ranked queue for ARAM.

This would be an ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE idea unless they included the entire champion pool so aram only accounts dont just rek everything

It would be hard to balance since it's random. A lot of people would just make accounts with ARAM OP champs only ( like we don't have enough of those ).

If they had prerequisites like having the x ammount of champs of each type, or even having all champs, then maybe it would be viable. But both are unreasonable and I don't think the queue would be healthy.

It would be nice if they found a way to have ARAM ranked but for now we can only hope.

Yeah I know there is alot more to it but just an idea that ran through my head that maybe could be a consideration.

I could be mistaken but they did mention that it could be implemented in the future if all the pieces fit together. It was a long time ago so i can't really remember what was said.

If you want some alternatives there are some websites that track your ARAM matches and have their own ladder. It's not endorsed by Riot but it's something. It's only the players that register on the website but most hardcore ARAM players do. Just google "aram ranked" and it should give you a couple of them.

Ranked ARAM would be great, and there's little reason it couldn't work (though obviously with some changes from current Normal ARAM). Playerbase size is the only reasonable issue that's been brought up. Coincidentally, that's the same reason Riot cited for removing Normal Draft SR, yet the League community had no issue railing against that decision.
