Hello Everybody,

First time posting on the forums and I'm hoping for some positive and constructive responses. I recently felt the urge to create a champion, and I'm hoping for some opinions, constructive criticisms, other ideas for improvement, and viability comments. I have not yet fabricated his lore (though I have ideas), or concept art; however, depending on the overall response to this post, I will make them and post them. The general concept of this champion is that he's a teamfight oriented, tanky, top lane or jungle. He wields a giant war hammer or maul. As his name denotes, he's aligned with Demacia (more lore to come). So keep in mind his general concept and visual appearance, when reviewing his abilities. Also, if this champion idea particularly inspires you and you would like to draw up some concept art, I'd love to see it. The more ideas and feedback the merrier. So here's the description of his abilities:

Lindon, Hammer of Demacia

Passive (Growing Strength): Lindon gains Attack Damage equal to 1% of his maximum health

Q (Crushing Blows): Lindon’s auto attacks “break bones” for 6 seconds, dealing additional damage equal to a percentage of the opponent’s max health (1.0/1.5/2.0/2.5). Lindon also increases his attack range (50/60/70/80/90).

**W **(Undaunted Charge): Lindon charges forward, dealing damage and knocking aside and slowing enemy champions he comes into contact with. This is a skill shot. (70/90/130/175/200 + 30% AD)[15 second cool-down]

E: Passive (Heavy Armor) - Lindon’s armor and magic resist are passively increased (5%/10%/15%/20%/25%)

Active (Shield for the Meek) - Lindon sacrifices his increased percentage of armor and magic resist, sharing it with nearby allied champions for 8 seconds. [25 second cool-down]

**R **(Mighty Leap): Lindon leaps to target enemy champion, smashing downward with his hammer, stunning the target champion and dealing area of effect damage. This effect also creates a shockwave that ripples from the center of impact, slowing enemy champions upon contact. Enemy champions take more damage the closer they are to the center of impact. (700 range) [120 second cool-down]

I hope you enjoy the idea. I welcome feedback of any kind!

And not trying to pick out things but his ult seems fairly longed ranged for a melee...

Also when you say knocking aside for his w would that just mean he pushes them aside like vayne's condemn or would it stun them?

I must say, this champion seems an awful lot like Poppy and Jayce. Poppy being the Hammer, Poppy's Q is "Devastating Blow" and Poppy's E is a charge as well (although it's not a skill shot). And Jayce's Hammer Q is just like this ulti (with a little extra).

Made some major edits to his ultimate, Q, and E. Hopefully adding some balance to his kit.

I love the concept of this champion. I really think though that the mighty leap should knockup nearby enemies rather than do more damage closer to impact. The aoe shouldn't be too big however.

does the q make the auto attack qoe? and does the w only affect champions? he seems like a more tank oriented vi and cool and etc but if he's gonna double as a laner/jungle he might need a more effective way to clear the single target autos O.o

His ult seems a lot like pantheon's by your description, and what I mean by this is more damaged is done closer to the center and that he jumps in to do the damage.

It seems like a really good idea, but why do the abilities only have 4 levels? Also, the E passive seems really op, you might want to tune the % down a bit. Also, there is already the "Might of Demacia". (Garen) Try making it the "Hammer of Ionia" or "Hammer of Noxus". And the Q is passive, right? The name also sounds like a chocolate company... :P
