'Startocaster' is more fun to say than I expected.
ARAM is really strange. It seems like a lot of champs have very low impact. Eve might as well not even be on the map as it neutralizes her kit almost completely. Where as on Nidalee I dominated.

But it probably is the way to go from 1 to 30. sprinkle in some normal games to understand last hitting and map objectives.

Eve can still be useful to a degree with her Q poke and frost queens gold generation, but she and many other squishy all-in heroes do very poorly in aram; if you see a riven go straight for damage its safe to assume she's going to contribute nothing.

Even with that, its still a great mode for beginners, because it's a crash course in positioning, juking skills, and CSing under pressure (from both enemies and your own allies).

Yeah, it's really hard to make 133 separate playlists by yourself. The main intention of the site right now probably is to start building those playlists.

If the creator of the site manually adds songs and checks them before listening he probably has a shitload of songs waiting for him. If Reddit picked up on this he'll be backlogged until the end of 2017 :v:

Tanks are surprisingly good on ARAM, but most players don't know how to survive a miserable early game against a poke comp. Also, screw all the champs that force you to buy an Oracle's Extract.

you need to buy a relic shield on aram as a tank / especially when the other team has better poke, so that you can clear the wave much faster and safer. most people dont understand this because ???

Because that slows them down from finishing their full damage build

Most of the ARAM pubstars I've seen have had 0 understanding of relic shield, and will merrily burn half their mana pool nuking a wave even if you're a Nasus with 3 relic charges (who gets triple stacks off Q in ARAM).

Wowzers!
In case anyone else has been playing full AP Maokai mid with protobelt first item, I just exhaustively did the math and Lich Bane is definitely a better item than Luden's for all-inning although obviously weaker for poke. But I think you should build Rabadon's second and Lich Bane further down the line.

I just lost 8 game ranked games in a row (due to a lovely combination of playing poorly, smurfs, and bad luck). AMA

Even though I lost, this Nasus build is fun af

ARAM is a great mode to learn how to fight against Viegar and Illaoi. It also can train you to fight katarina, sona, morgana, anivia , and velkoz.

It also gives you a bloodthirst so that if you do see one in a regular match you gun for them with the fury of a thousand suns now that you can get behind them or attack from the sides.

What are the odds that switching skin mid ult will make the damage proc twice?

Less than the chance that one of the skins will somehow do less damage with their ult, but only if they're playing blue side.

Support lux is a lot of fun but basically offers nothing over more meta picks. It is great to get thunderlords and all your frost queen's cash off a single e into auto tho.
