450+ unfun 'Ability Augments' removed from Mayhem
Over 450 unfun and bugged Ability Augments have been removed from ARAM: Mayhem Mode ‼️
With the newest ARAM: Mayhem update, they removed 40 augments and added 57 "new" augments. Many of these new ones were just one of the removed ones but with the new lens of being an "ability augment." One such example of this was Rejuvenation - using a specific ability heals you by a set amount. This augment is just worse Rabble Rousing (which healed you by a set amount any time you used ANY ability).
Many more augments like this were just disappointing and seemed rushed - many people started their newest witch hunt calling it all "AI slop." Plenty of these augments either didn't work at all or had misleading descriptions. To use my example above again for Rejuvenation which reads, "Using {Ability} restores health."
When I first encountered this I was playing Rammus and the ability was my W Defensive Ball Curl, reading "using defensive ball curl restores health" -this makes me think that I'll have some regen during my W to counteract the damage ill take.
"What a great augment, this is exactly what an Armordillo with his favorite vest needs!" I thought.
I begin my game as I always do with etiquette, doing my spin moves - then the fighting begins. I W with full hp and notice, I'm not healing. I W again, to recieve a measly 120 hp, ONLY UPON PRESSING THE ABILITY (a relatively longer cooldown one at that). I immediately went from the high of thinking rito made a great augment, to realizing I got baited again.
Now with them removing these offending augments, I'm left wondering, how many have joined the Twisted Treeline. They say they trashed 450 of the 'disappointing or bugged' ones, but they already removed 40 and added 57, now of these 57 how many are even left?
