ARAM Balancing
I'm not usually one to complain, as I know how much hard work and effort everyone at Riot puts into League; however, with the new Butcher's Bridge release and more people playing ARAM who usually don't, I feel like the good old team comp problem is brought pretty front and center once more.
My last match had an enemy team that consisted of Blitzcrank, Alistar, Irelia, Caitlyn, and Lux. It was one of those comps where my whole team would have had a much better time just have our own little party in base as they would have won the game quickly and painlessly that way. Two of their teammates (a duo, surprise surprise) just loved to gloat over their luck, and two of my teammates ended up raging, which is always a fun time. I understand this happens sometimes and I'll just have to deal with it, but honestly, that same frustration was sort of in me too. ARAM team comp balance issues are just such a big problem. I know that you guys feel that implementing some form of balancing system will take the fun out ARAM, and get rid of that lucky feeling when you're given a strong champ or a strong comp, but honestly, I'm willing to trade away some of that feeling if it means not being completely deleted by the enemy team more often than not.
The reduced healing was a start, as it made comps with Soraka and Sona not completely broken, but I still feel like it's not near enough to really make ARAM less frustrating. I really do appreciate all you guys have done for us, but I'm encouraged to steer clear from ARAM most times because I know what most likely awaits me.
