ARAM Balance is trash

Shosuko·May 24, 2015·3 votes·1,331 views

The snowball was very fun to add, now ARAM is even worse than before for balance. Does anyone in Riot even care about balance? Or is it just fine that ARAM is the most 1 sided frag fest in existence.

Tank team gets ahead and snowball into tower dive all asp;ldkfja;liksjedfp;oliasjedfpoikajsl;kdfj; day long!!!

Balance this crap! Make it so that everyone has 100% champion roster to random from so that people can't have aram only accounts with only OP champs. Give poke some decay so it doesn't hit 100% damage at over a certain range. Ramp up the towers so the worst snowball dives don't recur non-stop all fkipoa;sndpofjas;lkdfja;lkwsdejfpo; game long. Give some kind of defense to counter the free snowball dive bs that is now everything of aram.

I know a million people are going to down vote and say how "aram is supposed to be 1 sided bull shit that only 5 people get to enjoy" well pre-emptive FUCK YOU~! Aram used to be fun back before it was given match making, where you could dodge the most bull shit team comps.

ARAM is supposed to be the BREAK from the frustrating hard core pvp death battle where you can be any champ randomly and ENJOY it, not get beat over the head with the stupid stick for being unlucky.

Except it's WORSE now because the threat range of a snowballing team is longer than the distance between the two starting towers.

Mark/Dash Cooldown increased to 40 from 20 Range lowered to 1600 from 2500. Total Damage is now split 50/50 instead of 25/75. Total damage still 20 + 10 per level.

It's not ideal, but at least it's an improvement.

That actually sounds a lot better. The threat range of a fed tank pushes you passed your tower... 1600 at least comes down to actual champion poke threat range so it doesn't negate other types. The longer cd is going to be great too.

They have never really tried to balance aram though. Look at sona or ziggs when they had like 60% win rates in it forever.

Before snowball, it was STILL a 1 sided frag fest.

Um. They do care. Hence the changes they put on the PBE. I've played several games with the snowball changes on PBE and it's a drastic improvement over what we have here on live. Hopefully it'll roll into the next patch.

What changes are they working on in PBE? I haven't heard anything about this.

It's random, dingus.

With all the negativity against Mark/Dash... what did people do when other spells were added to LoL? People dislike change and adapting to it. Learn and adapt to your new environment, so that you can still win? Oh my!
