I read on the forums somewhere they were considering making it an official mode.
that would be nice. although i would say its probably best to use the tutorial map for this., just make it a little bigger. that way there wouldn't be anyone cheating.

You need to log in before commenting.
you havn't been answering any of my calls.. but i felt like instead of building some guide for a champion that i would treat you to a general guide for an aram game, it'll be a lot shorter than my champion guides but it will still be fun
just like old times, right?
ARAM GAMES
aram is short for All Random All Middle, meaning that everyone gets a random character and has to go to the middle lane. in this short overview I will go over the dos and don'ts of aram, starting with the rules.
RULES
The host has the final say in what the rules are, but these are accepted as the rules of the game
NO BLUE PILLS (returning to base) because this game is about everyone fighting at the same time.
NO FORTIFY SPELL if everyone took fortify, the game would last for 7 hours. no kidding.
NO SNOWBALL ITEMS like mejais soulstealer, sword of the occult, and leviathans, items that get really powerful with a few champion kills, as there are a lot more kills/assists than a normal game.
NO GUARDIAN ANGEL once again if everyone got this the game would go on forever, and get really boring quickly.
NO BUSHES/JUNGLING Stay visible at all times (unless you have stealth) these areas are considered, obviously, outside the middle lane.
GENERAL DOS
For summoner spells, its best that everyone take heal and clarity, as you don't get to return to base, regens are also more important stats. if you don't have mana, its sometimes ok to take ignite or flash instead of clarity.
For character builds, if you have a viable ap build, especially with an aoe spell or one that hits multiple enemies, and you aren't tanking, then you should take it. ad carries that are melee range are pretty useless, and getting closer to hit them with your sword usually ends in major stunlock as they rape your stupid ***.
That being said, if you are tank, get more magic resist. in fact no matter who you are i suggest getting mercury treads as the mr and cc redux is really great on this game type.
Harassment is key, as the point of harassing is making them return to base, but only makes them waste heals/potions so they don't have to wait for their health to slowly regenerate.
DON'TS
Besides breaking the rules, there are a few things to mention.
Don't be an *** and farm the minions, this mode has very little gold and experience as it has to split up the experience between 5 characters. don't steal last hits from your allies.
Also, let everyone get some kills. its painful sitting there getting 50 gold for an assist when you're racking up a score of 1/3/20. I'm not saying that you should back off, but don't try to kill steal. seriously no one likes it when you steal their kills.
HEY LOOK MOVIE TIME
its all of the same game, just broken down into 3 parts.
there you go i hope you guys have fun trying this, although you have to play a practice game for it. also people usually want players of at least lvl 25+
lastly, free blitz week its a *****.
