Talking about ARAM accounts here. ARAM account = unsportive behaviour. They refuse to play on their regular account because they only want to play fotm champions in order to win.
Riot when are you going to make every champion available for ARAM? You mentioned something like this months ago and have not done anything about them since.
You say you disapprove of negativity. Well, they're still here.. Ruining ARAM games every day.
wolferer3 votesIs there a solution to this issue that doesn't mess with Riot's business model? Maybe some kind of matchmaking system that tries to match based on number of champions unlocked?
Zielmann2 votesCan confirm this is still an issue. Need to either make all champs available to everybody for Normal Queue ARAMs, or at least make it so that as long as one player owns a champion, anybody in the game could get that champion (like they did in One For All).

Something was suggested already.

This pretty much.

Players who have a lot of champion (I have all champions unlocked for example) would have long queues then.
There are only 2 solutions and both are mentioned in this thread I'm afraid. Either that or they start implementing rules similar to ranked where you have to have a certain amount of champions available or need to have atleast x champions of every role before they can queue up.
As I mentioned in my OP though. Several months ago Riot said that they were thinking about making every champion available for ARAM to do something about these blatantly unsportive players but so far their bark was bigger than their bite which is rather disappointing coming from a company that keeps claiming they care about their players/customers.
Ricje1 votesJust had 3 ARAM account clowns on the other team. Gee what a blast I had.. /sarcasm.
Naramiel1 votesAt the least they could make the reroll points scale more based on the number of champs you own. As it is, owning even just 10 champs gets you rerolls too often, and owning all the champs isn't much of a benefit.

That's a good point.
But at this time, Riot doesn't have much choice but to reevaluate their business model due to the bot situation.

Well, it's 30 base plus 1 per champ you own, and it takes 240 (i think) points to get a reroll, so it takes 6 games to get a reroll with ten champs owned which is a fair around of time to spend to get just 1 reroll.
if you owned all the champs (121) thats 151 points a game, so every 2 games you get a reroll, one third of the time it would take with 10. However you are right that you don't need all the champs to get a reroll that often.
just to break it down, here are the break points when you get a reroll (assuming 240 points)
owned champs : games to get reroll 0 : 8 3 : 7 10 : 6 18 : 5 30 : 4 50 : 3 90 : 2
Ricje1 votesYou need 250 points for a reroll actually.
I have made a suggestion in the past to change the amount of points gained and needed which would benefit players who had a lot of champions and would be a slap in the face to those who only owned a few (aka the ARAM accounts). Never got a response on it however. Made a suggestion similar to the one I made in the past last week but it was downvoted to -2 (old forums) after it had several upvotes so it seems that ARAM account clowns weren't too happy with my ideas (gee I wonder why).
Anyway my idea is something like:
Roll cap changed from 2 to 4 Points required for a roll changed from 250 to 350 Base points gained per game changed from 30 to 16. Points gained are based on the amount of champions you own. Points per champion changed to the following:
1-10 champions: 0.2 per champion + 16 base 11-20 champions: 0.4 per champion + 18 base 21-30 champions: 0.7 per champion + 20 base 31-40 champions: 1.1 per champion + 22 base 41-50 champions: 1.3 per champion + 24 base 51-60 champions: 1.5 per champion + 26 base 61-70 champions: 1.7 per champion + 28 base 71-80 champions: 1.9 per champion + 30 base 81-90 champions: 2.1 per champion + 32 base 91-100 champions: 2.3 per champion + 34 base 101-110 champions: 2.5 per champion + 36 base 111-120 champions: 2.7 per champion + 38 base 121-130 champions: 2.9 per champion + 40 base
Comparing the current roll system to that of my idea would make it so that the amount of games you need to gain a roll will be equal to the current system once you have ~41 champions (and benefit from that amount onwards) and make it so players with an ARAM acccount will have to play roughly double the amount of games to gain a roll.
Having all champions can be disadvantageous at times (IE: I saved up 2 rolls then get Sejuani. Since we have an Amumu and Shen already I decided to reroll... Got Shyvana and then Skarner) so a roll per game (once you have over 106 champions) makes life a bit easier as well as allowing you to roll for another player.
Again: This was just an idea. I would much rather see ARAM accounts disappear than gain a roll every game instead of every 2 games but something needs to be done.
Ricje1 votesSeems Riot doesn't care.
