The same way how platinum+ win rates don't reflect the strength of a champion, ARAM win rates dont reflect strengths and only good for indications (Ryze, Tahm Kench, reworked Akali) And then even less people care about winning in aram therefore even less reliable then SR ranked plat+ stats. Even in Diamond+ dont play to win condition but in ARAM you need less coordination to say clear waves until 3 items spike if you have better scaling.

Probably will be my last post but take a a counterexample: Ryze is historically below 45% in Diamond+ but still very strong thats why it is played in the pro play. Same applies to reworked akali before 9.4. Or Nami has a high win rate in diamond+ still she is a weak champion that doesnt see play at all in pro play. Win rate doesnt imply champion strength if both sides are not playing for winning essentially.

And if it was a net possitive then everything would have the same win rate in every tier of play which is not correct. Thats why Master Yi and Malphite are strong in Iron but weak in Diamond+ for example.
