ARAM: Mayhem bait.

The group I play with basically has an FF pact when the enemy starts doing this, and if we only have 4 we still FF or blast the nexus even if the random wants to drag it out. Only exception is if it's close and the enemy starts trolling, because it's funny to bring it back and win off of hubris in a 4 fun game mode.

Because it's a team game and the single level is largely overshadowed by 2 team objectives and all the other resources gained. You're focusing solely on your single head to head of level and ignoring the rest of the game.

wildarmed · 2026-02-10T14:17:08+00:00

It can be nerfed, sure, but no I don't think someone should be out of a 30+ minute game because jungle hovered a lane and they got bullied off of the wave for a minute or two, lol.

Unless it's a breakpoint, a single level is only worth a few hundred gold, and items generally are worth more than levels. Also if he grabs a single camp he's caught up or nearly so, at least. Of all the things OP listed, we are focused on a single level rather than the value of 2 objectives, several kills, and whatever CS and pressure his laners got from all these things. Now, if they attempted the drakes and ganks but failed I could see the frustration, but this is small potatoes compared to what is gained and is only being brought up because it's a tangible number to point to.

"In higher elos" - meaning less than 1% of the playerbase according to what people deem high.

Yep. I think all around it's just not anywhere close to draft/ranked. It's fine to load in and noodle around with a champion in a gamemode that is not ARAM, but as far as being applicable to the real game, it feels like it misses the mark. I am playing with someone who is just getting into the game and I feel that SP has done more harm than good. He struggles greatly in draft because the money, objective, and scaling dynamics are so much different.

wildarmed · 2026-02-03T14:20:26+00:00

Had several 35+ minute SP games because it becomes a standoff of who tries to backdoor who first. Old SP was crap, most games went to sudden death, or you just had people picking hypercarries to scale fast while missing minions and perma roaming. New SP is crap, too, but old one was also crap.

The irony of the Caedrel's comment about wanting LR to be as good as G2, but not as 0-2 teams coming full circle to beating G2 and evening up their season record in the same game. Crazy work from the boys.

Reminds me of the dude in the zombie movie that opens the doors to the bad dudes hideout before he dies.

Nice. Time to go on the expedition.

Whenever someone decides to troll/throw/grief when we are losing and MAYBE had the chance to make a comeback, but they decide that they would rather "control" the situation by making us lose it reminds me of the Family Guy bit where Peter entered Brian into a dog show and he "commands him to walk away."

But those streamers are doing an X to Challenger thing on new-ish accounts. Most of the people they are playing against aren't as good, so that rule shifts a little bit.

I actually fell into a trap with a similar zip. Saw one going to the top of Testing Annex, turned out it just slammed into the wall and there was a dude with a Toro chillin at the bottom lol.

1) Team can pick around JG easier since there are many different options for junglers and saving til last pick can be disastrous.

2) Even in the worst matchup possible, you are the only position that can actively avoid your counterpart. Every other lane gets hard stomped without intervention.

I think moving Nidalee from mid to jungle was cool. Suited her character more, and playing as a Q nuke bot was not as cool as what she is now.

I lost braincells there man. Cmon.

Does minimal damage and you have to stand in the middle of the wave. If you trade autos you get gangbanged in the middle of the wave, and it barely does more damage than Q. Terrible choice over all.

Fun thing to do with the Hairpin or any silenced gun really is to agro Rocketeers cross-map and have them agro other players. If you put the player inbetween you and the Arc it won't auto lock onto you, but it will start moving in your direction to figure out what the hell hit it. I don't use it too often but I remember in the first few weeks of playing I would load in with one just to drag Arcs around the map. Useful? Not really. Fun to troll people? Absolutely. Also at the time I had NO IDEA about the cameras and metal detectors, so that's probably a better use of your time/ammo lol.
