Everything You Need to Know About ARAM: Mayhem
ARAM: Mayhem is a brand-new game mode in League of Legends. It is an alternative version of ARAM where players unlock Augments that can empower your champion.
When Does ARAM Mayhem Come Out?
ARAM Mayhem will be released on patch 25.21. You should expect to see it hit the live servers shortly after the 21st of October.
When Do Players Unlock Augments?
You will start each match with one augment. You can then pick up more augments as the game develops. These augments are available at levels 7, 11 and 15. You will choose your augments the next time you die.
Augments
There are 3 tiers to Augments in ARAM Mayhem. The first is Silver, Gold and then Prismatic.
