League of Legends features several game modes for its players, whether they are casual gamers or ones wanting to climb up the ranks in the competitive mode. One of its most popular game modes is ARAM (All Random All Mid) which gives players random characters from the champion pool, with players occasionally given re-rolls. Here are some of the best champions that can be available in ARAM.
10 Illaoi
If players land Illaoi in champion select, the enemy’s game is over before it’s even begun. She can be an absolute powerhouse if played right. She can build tanky items while dealing tons of hard-hitting damage.
Illaoi’s passive, Prophet of the Elder God, allows her to spawn a tentacle that attacks any enemies she hits with her W, Harsh Lesson. Coupled with her E, Test of Spirit, Illaoi can decimate enemies from a distance, with her tentacles dishing out serious damage to the enemy. She can also self-heal per enemy hit, making her harder to kill.
9 Neeko
ARAM gives players two game-mode-specific Summoner Spells: Clarity and Snowball. Snowball allows players to aim a snowball at the enemy. If it hits an enemy unit, the player has several seconds to reactivate and teleport to the struck enemy’s position. Snowball is an exceptional Summoner Spell for champions that want to go all-in.
Neeko is a great candidate for Snowball. Her Ultimate Pop Blossom takes several seconds to activate. Neeko can aim a Snowball, unleash her Ultimate and swoop straight into the enemy team as her Ultimate lands. It will stun them in place, and when coupled with her E, Tangle-Garbs, it’s almost a guaranteed Penta-kill!
8 Brand
ARAM takes place on the Howling Abyss map, which features one wide lane and four turrets for players to destroy. As a result of the small space, both teams often find they are grouped together in clumps.

Brand is an excellent champion for ARAM due to his burning damage output. Coupled with the Dark Harvest rune and Liandry’s Anguish, this firey champion can burn through his opponents in one fell swoop. His Ultimate Pyroclasm provides ticking damage over time and bounces to grouped-up enemies.
7 Lillia
Lillia can be fantastic for ARAM in the right hands. All of her abilities apply her Sleep Dust passive. This can be immensely strong paired with the Liandry’s Anguish and Demonic Embrace, applying ticking damage over time. She also gains movement speed when attacking enemies with her abilities, allowing her to catch up to any escaping opponents.
If players get Lillia in the champion selection, they should pick the Snowball Summoner Spell. Lillia can be devastating up-close, using her Q and W abilities before popping Lilting Lullaby. Her Ultimate sends enemies to sleep and stuns them until they are damaged.
6 Morgana
Any form of stun or crowd-control (CC) ability work great in ARAM, as they root the enemy in place. Morgana is a perfect champion for ARAM and a must-pick for any team if she is available.
Morgana is the queen of denying and applying CC. Her Q, Dark Binding, roots enemies in place for a long duration. This can be devastating when paired with her W Tormented Shadow and her Ultimate, Soul Shackles to stun multiple enemies. Morgana can also deny CC with her protective E ability, Black Shield, preventing any disabling or immobilizing effects.
5 Dr. Mundo
The LoL 2023 pre-season patch has released some new items, including Radiant Virtue and Heartsteel. The latter is a powerful Mythic item, perfect for Tank champion builds and a must-have for Dr. Mundo. He is a strong ARAM champion, as his passive ability resists the first CC ability that hits him.

Heartsteel grants the wearer 800 bonus Health and synergizes well with Mundo’s reworked abilities. His Ultimate Maximum Dosage increases his maximum health, regeneration, and movement speed. He becomes virtually unkillable without the enemy buying anti-healing items to apply Grevious Wounds on him.
4 Mordekaiser
Mordekaiser is a versatile champion, able to build towards Ability Power or Tank items depending on what is required. He works best with Linadry’s Anguish and Ryali’s Crystal Scepter to slow enemies and burn them.
Where Mordekaiser shines is through the use of his Ultimate, Realm of Death. He can pull enemies in using his E, Death’s Grasp, before pulling them into the Realm of Death. Here, he can take a crucial enemy champion out of the fight before it even begins, allowing his team to decimate any stragglers.
3 Blitzcrank
Blitzcrank is a great Support champion no matter the game mode, either in Ranked, Draft Pick, or ARAM. Blitzcrank belongs in the frontline, as his entire kit revolves around displacing the enemy with his Q ability, Rocket Grab, followed up with his E ability, Power Fist.

Blitzcrank can be a good Tank for his team and is also great for an all-in team composition with Snowball. His Ultimate Static Field can deal some hefty damage and silence the enemy, so they cannot use any abilities.
2 Singed
Singed can use his passive to boost his movement speed from other champions and boost into the opposing team. Singed can cause havoc with his powerful Ultimate and his Q, Poison Trail, to damage enemies consistently.
His E ability allows him to Fling an enemy in whatever direction he chooses, sending them careening into his team to finish them off. Singed can fling opponents into his Mega Adhesive, rooting them for a short duration.
1 Lux
Lux is by far one of the best champions players can roll in ARAM. She has a powerful and devastating combo with her Q, E, and R in quick succession that can one-shot multiple enemies when she builds enough items.
Lux has amazing poke capability, proving annoying for the enemy team and whittling down their health. Since ARAM only has one middle lane, Lux’s Ultimate Final Spark takes up half of the map with a large range, so it is virtually impossible for players to miss this skill shot.
League of Legends is available to play on PC.
