r/ARAM

Seeing this augment just feels like a GG for whichever team it is on. I personally don't think an augment like this needs to be in the game. I don't even like seeing it on my own team. Eventually someone is just deleting people from the fight with almost no efforts. First time I ever got it and didn't know how good it was, I was insta deleting enemies with Amumu ult because I got lucky enough to get steel your heart. This augment just does not feel fun to use or have to fight against.

Both teams should have fun. If you or the other team already lost the game and the winner is on enemis nexus. End the game.
Culture of no FF in Aram making games last 30 minutes of 1 team obliterating the enemy in the fountain is no fun. For the loosing team of course.

Why is Xayah buffed in ARAM? I say this specifically as someone who loves to play her. She struggles into heavy poke, yes, but in general she is one of the best, if not THE BEST, character at infinitely kiting in one direction with navori and E... if the team is majority melee it is GENUINELY unplayable for them if you have an ounce of skill at spacing. Not to mention there is just one long lane so her feathers are extremely easy to line up on multiple enemies... It feels weird and wrong that she is buffed, I feel very strong when playing her and often playing against her feels very uninteractive because you cannot walk towards her.. that is her whole thing... anti dive/anti engage... if your team doesn't have a long range CC ability or extreme mobile champion to one shot her she can genuinely 1v5, and I have done this many times... Not to mention, the new Hexoptics item allows you to participate against longer range characters by getting an assist with your team and then engaging with 625 range.

As I've become an ARAM-only player and have over 6000+ ARAMs, there are some champions that always perform well and some that always perform horribly and are just not worth picking up.

For example, no matter who's playing him, Graves always ends up one/two-shotting everyone. The same could go for Akshan, for example.

Why is RIOT no trying to balance things out? Because it's been like this for months (maybe even years).

She is a low range, dive character with little escape tools and no tankiness. Other characters of similar playstyle are always omega buffed in ARAM, why does she TAKE more damage and deal less? Confused.

I've got Gash on Irelia and was offered Upgrade SoBD, which seemed amazing, because of 100% attack speed. It also had very nice numbers on it, but it felt like I actually should have completely ignored the second part of the augment and didn't build the item at all, because I was lacking tankiness/dps which I could have gotten instead. Am I missing something (heal is only for allies, right)? What are even the case uses of that item.
