Tool for League of Legends Custom ARAM's to solve the issue of not having rerolls

SquadForger - ARAM Team Builder for League of Legends

Resolve the no rerolls issue in custom ARAM games with this tool! This GitHub repository houses a C#-based solution that takes the teams participating in a custom ARAM match as input and dynamically generates a pool of 15 champions for each team. The generated champion pools are then displayed and can be shared on Discord.

Features:

• Champion Pool Generation: Automatically generate X amount of champions for each team.
• Discord Integration: Post the generated champion pools directly to a designated Discord channel.

Usage:

1. Download the Latest Release

Optional: Edit PrivateData.config if you intend on using Discord Integration. If you are not familiar with Webhooks, this article will come in handy :)

2. Open SquadForger.exe

3. Input the participating teams.

This can be done manually, or by parsing a csv. Currently we have 1 simple version of CSV parser, but you can add your own parser by implementing ITeamNamesRepository interface. This is what our CSVTeamParser.cs can handle:

Very simple :)

4. Run the script to generate champion pools.

Here we have 2 options:

Safe Generate

• Uses a local json that contains info about the champions. (Up to date with patch 14.1.1)

Custom Generate

• Gets the champion info directly from Riot's Data Dragons. Take a look at the Data Dragons documentation for more info.
• Needs a valid patch number to do so

5. Discord integration automatically shares the pools.

• If you didn't specify a Discord webhook in PrivateData.config, then this will do nothing
• If you did specify this, Send to Discord button will produce the following result:

Extending the functionality

If you would like to use SquadForger's Discord integration, you must integrate your own Discord Webhook into the project. You can achieve that by doing the following:

1. Create a PrivateData.config file in your directory

2. Add your Webhook ID to PrivateData.config

3. Set the Copy to output directory property to Copy always

From this point on the project is ready to be extended :)

squadforger's Issues

Make it possible to remove individual teams

Enter team names does not support enters

When trying to write teams in the following manner:
Team1,
Team2,
Team3,

It does the following: Team1, Team2, Team3,

Better info tab

Info tab should give the following info:

• Link to Github
• Invite users to document issues on the issues tab on Github
• Current version

Better flow from generating to discord tab

Instead of displaying a message box when generating

It would make for a better flow to automatically go to the discord tab.

Update preview automatically

Updating preview is only needed after a generate so the button can be removed and the updating of the preview can happen automatically

UI doesn't update when new teams are added

In SquadVM The following function gets executed when Add button is pressed:

Which gets rid of the commas and creates new teams. The only issue is the UI doesn't show those changes.
The code inside SquadView, responsible for showing it

Automatically update to latest champions.json

It would be handy to have the champions.json that is embeded in the project automatically update.

Perhaps with Github actions

Improved webhook integration

Currently you are forced to give in the webhook in a file, this is not user friendly at all.

Make it possible to put it as a input field in the discord tab and saved to file for easy use between sessions.

More accurate preview

It would be nice if we could preview the text better. That **text** gets turned to bold and # headers are actually larger.

In general this text can be way smaller.

Configurable: number of champions per team to generate

The number of champions that each team will get when generation happens should be changeable by the user. Default value should be 15 as in ARAM if all players get 2 rerolls they have access to 15 champions in total
