What does the community think about Ranked ARAM queues?

Hey guys, as the title already suggests i'd like to poll about ranked aram queues, this is an idea i came up with recently and some of my personal friends already agreed with me that it's a great idea.

A couple of my questions include: What is your thought about Ranked ARAM queues? How much do you play ARAM? Would you play ARAM more often if a ranked queue was available? If a ranked queue was available, what queue would you prefer most? Normals or ARAM?

Any other type of feedback is welcome, just make sure it's feedback ;)

Thank you for your time! Flurpaderp

People can manipulate their champs owned, also, it's random. People will get screwed because their teams will always have Sion, Poppy, and Quinn. While the other team gets Nidalee, Xerath, and good ADCs. Never going to happen.

What if instead of putting ARAM into account for the current ranked system we had a second rank list just for it? The game matching would be just as it is today, all random (ARam, right?). The only difference is that people would be benefited by a different rank system, playing with and against players that are as committed as themselves.

I know that this game mode is intended to be a fun and relaxed one but it is really frustrating when you're trying your best to win a game and someone decides to feed, leave the game or play carelessly just because they don't like the champion they get.

About the smurf accounts, people with only OP champs, and etc, maybe Riot could make available all the champions once you reach a certain level.

I hope I made myself clear as English is not my native language.

Not gonna happen. Riot won't even consider a semi-draft mode where team captains ban champions, then every is assigned a randomly-picked champion.

Riot won't even consider a ranked mode for Dominion; no way is ARAM getting ranked if Riot won't enable ranked for Dominion (or solo queue ranked for Twisted Treeline, for that matter).

would be epic that we can play ranked in aram, alot people will play it, just for each side 5 champions to ban cuz some champs are just so terrible op in that map :P

hope u do it and i'm a really happy person

i would support ranked ARAM mode, but only if ANY AND ALL CHAMPIONS can be selected for all players, that way no one can manipulate the rosters.

What is your thought about Ranked ARAM queues? It would be a fun change but IDK if I would want to risk my states on a random team of champions... Also would we still have 3 ban's a team?

How much do you play ARAM? Around 2 times a week.

Would you play ARAM more often if a ranked queue was available? I'd play it more when it first comes out but I will gravitate back to the 5v5 SR.

If a ranked queue was available, what queue would you prefer most? Normals or ARAM? Normals

if we get ranked aram before ranked dominion, I'll be mad. aram is literally random, even if they expand everyone's champ pool. I barely aram now, so I'd definitely not do it ranked. when I do play it, I don't play it to be serious and try my best to win every game.

Ranked ARAM sounds interesting. Flawed, but interesting.
Fairly often; Most days I play League it's for ARAM.
Probably. Maybe more than I play ranked now, but not by much I assume.
Neither. I'm not a fan of tension-playing trying to be pro at this game. I just want to play chill.

So the prerequisite's would be: Level 30 (Duh) Own all champions Be in good standing and considered non-toxic (30 or negative/lost less Tribunal cases) the pick ban phase will be back and forth one at a time 15 seconds each. (turn will end once ban is completed) Everyone gets to ban one champion then all are blocked except the random button and you can only hit it once(no re-rolls) If you fail to click the random button a random champion will be assigned( Teemo ) If you fail to ban on your turn a random champion will be banned( Teemo )

Have you thought of what the requirements will be to join ARAM ranked queues? Cuz you will have people making new accounts and just buying the champions who are considered OP on that map.

Luck will be an enormous factor in how good you will do, not so much skill.

As long as it is impossible to create ranked teams for ARAM that allows you to create a good team combo (think about tanks,support,adc...) ranked ARAM is going to be possible.

Literally way to luck based of a mode to be possible

Impossible. Considering the current unbalance within the game, ARAM will not work.

If they made different ranked rules maybe. With the amount of lp you get with wins/losses i think it would work. I was never big into ranked because of work so I didn't have the time to play multiple 40-50 minute games a day. On top of it the new rift map makes me ill. The visuals are too much for me on all settings. Same thing with dota. It makes me motion sick. I still would like to play ranked and get into it but now it is impossible for me too. Ranked ARAM would be amazing for me. I'd get a chance to try out ranked and not be motion sick the whole way through.
