Nidalee isn't even tier 1. Ziggs, Xerath, alistar, Ashe, jayce, Varus, karma, lux, fiddlesticks, viktor, twisted fate, Zyra, sivir, and sona are all better.

i hope you're joking lol.

Dunno, even if he starts with augment he can get oom pretty fast... then again if you skip boots you can get several potions, and if you go 9 utility it's some more mp5 as well.
Haven't been able to play him much in ARAM sadly, last 2 times I got him someone on the enemy team dodged (before the picks were revealed).

Viktor is quite strong in ARAMs, I can confirm. My sample size is only three games, but with thoughtful uses of grav field, and reckless uses of death laser you are the king of forcing fights when/how you want them. his Q is kinda useless until the game reaches the tug-of-war phase where there's lots of back and forth. It saves you sometimes early but once the shield fades you're still dead meat.

I was in a ranked 5 with my friends and both teams started lagging to hell. We didn't get dropped though, just sporadically came in and out.

Everyone on my team was dropped and 3 people from the other team, so I think we got the loss and the other team got the win RIP

Irelia is a baws in ARAM. Karthus is not that good, neither is Urgot.

Honestly Yi is too situational depending on the other team's cc to really put him near the top too.

Maybe. Could put Yi down in 1.5.

Also, Irelia's pretty bottom barrel with what she can do.

She can work sorta, but most of the time you'd want any other champion over her.

Everyone underestimates Urgot (it's pretty good in the right team), and Karthus is still fking Karthus on that map.

Continuous waveclear too. Not as good as Janna instaclear and "lolol you're never pushing off of turret ever", but it's alot of free damage.

Both Urgot and Karthus are weaker after tear nerfs tho way back when so you may be rite. If tear stacked the same way Blue Ez would probably be tier 1.5 or 1.

Problem with Urgot is if they have anyone good at diving, you're pretty screwed post 6. Karthus you actually have to think about when you ult because if you use it when fewer than 5 people are alive, you're wasting a very significant amount of your damage, and when it gets late he's much more of a liability because his ult cooldown is half an hour.

Irelia is far better than you're giving her credit. My winrate with her in ARAM is probably in excess of 60-70%, whereas my winrate with Udyr is probably like 10% (or less). It's not uncommon for me to be 1v3ing people by the end of the game as Irelia, whereas with Udyr you just get kited for eternity.

More or less. She really was only good because of her awesome scaling on a straight line skillshot.

And we were all thinking that 1000ap supports were going to be a thing, and that Janna would be op'd.

Janna still doesn't suck massively but nowadays she doesn't 2shot your entire team with tornados while being impossible to push against. She always had weaknesses in ARAM, especially once the game moves on from the poke stage.

Imo Soraka benefited hugely from the scaling support changes. Tanky soraka with Q/W max and rylais is pretty crazy in aramz.
