How do people even have fun in ARAM?
Genuinely i cant understand it. Its just a mage and adc practice tool. Like how are you supposed to have fun against a 5 stack of control mages all jerking each other off in discord? This shit is all i ever play against and i'm tired of pretending getting CC'd for 17 seconds straight is "ok because its a for fun mode". What is it that people find appealing about sitting 10 clicks from you opponents just spamming spells off cool-down hoping some of them hit?
Preferably its a mix of tanks, juggs, bruisers, mages and ADC's but in my personal experience its a MAJORITY of ranged champs. The stats on Lolalytics back up my thoughts on this as well with 9/10 of the most played champs (pick rate) all being ranged champs.
What i wouldn't do for a melee only queue or forced champ "types" in champ select. But that would ruin the whole point of All random.
Now i know that its definitely tanks and juggs that are "meta" in ARAM, as far as there can be a meta in this game-mode and that mages/adcs arent the strongest, but personally i dont play ARAM to sweat my ass off and i didnt queue up to play dodgeball so...
Thoughts? Whats ya'lls personal experience with ARAM and ARAM Mayhem?
