I have just started playing League of Legends.
What does it mean the match description 'All mid all random' in game browser?

All players should pick a random hero, and everyone should only go into the middle lane.

3@Drake - it's just something you can do for fun, as a change from the normal metagame. It's not supported by matchmaking -- ARAM are done as "practice" matches only. – Raven Dreamer Oct 18 '10 at 0:25

ARAM games are custom games set to the "all random" mode. Your champion is picked for you from the pool of champions you own + champions that are free this week. ARAMs also have some player-enforced rules:
- You cannot leave mid lane. Do not enter the bushes or the jungle.
- You cannot travel back to your base to heal unless your mid lane inhibitor is down.
- You cannot use Recall.
- You cannot buy items from the shop until you die (because of #2 and #3).
- You cannot buy Guardian Angel.
- You cannot buy "snowball" items that stack on player kills: Mejiai's Soulstealer, Sword of the Occult, and Leviathan.
There are also some rules that aren't always enforced but you'll commonly see:
- The summoner skill Fortify is also banned.
- You have to give the other team a free kill on you if you break a rule. And you have to sell a banned item if you buy it.

2@Ender This answer is kind of oudated now, because Riot added The Proving Grounds custom map mode. As for casual Summoner's Rift ARAM games: I assume Ragnar's item is allowed because it's custom for him. – Corey Csuhta Oct 5 '12 at 17:14
