Possible Champion Concept Themes

Sir ArmaMalum··3 votes·847 views

So I've been seeing a lot more champion concepts in Fan Creations of late and I am really excited to see so many cool ideas flowing. Here's a list of other themes current live champs haven't really used yet to hopefully spur on even more cool champ ideas. Feel free to link a list of your own champ concepts and their themes in the comments as well!

Note: I realize more than likely some, if not most, of these themes already have champ concepts. As I said above, feel free to link those concepts in comments below. I hope to merely give ideas and inspiration to newcomer and forum veteran alike. :)

---Smuggler

---Void Support

---Kinetic

---Draco-mancer (Dragon mage)

---Heavy Lancer

---Geo-mancer (Earth mage)

---Damacian Strategist (Swain Nemesis?)

---Master of Disguise

---Nasus/Renekton brothers/sisters (Bastet, Ra, etc.)

---Lorekeeper/Historian

---Undead Damacian (Undead Jarvan the First anyone?)

---Blacksmith

---Dancer

---Sand Mage (This one was and still is very popular)

---Miner

---Telepath

---Void Gatekeeper

---Chef

---Trainer/mentor archetype

---Deathknight

This nowhere near all the possible champion themes that can be done. Have an idea for a theme or twist yourself but haven't put pen to paper yet? Post it below!

Funny. I already made a Sand Mage, Nasus/Renekton's kind (funny thing, both are nasus/renekton rivals and in the same time a sand mage), Heavy Lancer and a Void Gatekeeper.

I've actually reviewed a few of your concepts. If I remember correctly you liked one of mine for how in-depth it was. Honestly, I'm surprised I didn't run into more of your concept themes, I think we can agree you have a lot! Feel free to link them and suggest more themes, I'm not trying to overwrite anything, just give inspiration for more ideas and also hopefully revive a few oldie but goodies in the comments!

Indeed, if I recall it right.

However, I've been posting Champion Concepts since last year march, but in the old forum of course. There's about 30 Concepts of mine, and here in the new forum probably 6-7 (they were copied from the old to the new).

You can see there the huge list of nonsense in one thread listed: http://forums.na.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?t=4002131

I don't think that they are actually good enough, but just wanted to show how much time I had.. too much time.

Anyhow, I'm currently on my 31th Concept. I'm drawing currently. It's about a Yordle who is possessed by the Void. His appearance is more of a Dark Knight, a bit similiar to Kassadin's appearance. He'll have some ridiculous funny parts like a extremely long cape that grinds on the ground and a greatsword that is about four times bigger than himself. He'll be a ad jungler with a unique Ultimate. A similiar reposition ultimate like we see on Urgot, sometimes on Shyvana and so on. His Ultimate is a small AoE around him, where he swings his blade clockwise, pulling enemies nearby to one location and fear them for short duration.

So write "Deathknight Void Yordle" as theme xD

Lol, will do, that sounds very interesting! Best of luck!

The Neverworld1 votes

Thanks. My lack of drawing skills should make it.. how should I say, unpleasant.. xD

And to start off the champ concept linking, here's one of mine: http://community.na.leagueoflegends.com/c/fancreations/KOebvyJe-champion-concept-adyn-the-tainted-flame-wip

Having Swain's nemesis as a champion would not be that good for the lore, as his leadership was already established, the Demacia VS Noxus champions are pretty much over. It would be like adding a nemesis to Vi/Jinx, the Vi/Cait/Jinx lore is already over, so they won't be releasing any Piltover crime figthers any time soon.

Sir ArmaMalum1 votes

Very true, lore is always going to be a major challenge in a MOBA where no one can die or move on with their lives in any way when they join the league. That was just my own little quip for an idea, but the point still stands, Damacia dos not have a strategist in the Institute of War, so a champ concept can happen!

IMO it's just too "many" champions of the same relation.

Hoffmisc1 votes

I don't know how long it will take but i'll try to do a dancer. :)

Hoffmisc1 votes

Not 100% done but most of the legwork is complete. Here's Elisara, The Dancing Sands. Enjoy :) Also I'm not how but she ended up being a dancer/sand mage.

Guess you can delete Deathknight Yordle. Seems it's not working like a "ghost bride" which skills are taken from other Champions, but are slightly changed. No, Deathknight Yordle really don't work, no 40 likes for it.

Sir ArmaMalum1 votes

Saw that, I thought the idea was interesting but 40 some upvotes is interestingly high, it's always hard to get those anywhere in Fan creations. I think it more the time of posting than anything else, caught a wave and rode it. Still, I'll always welcome new champ ideas no matter how outlandish or unoriginal or Teemo-related. XD

The Neverworld1 votes

Something might be fishy about that guy. I think he uses other accounts to upvote his thread, or even asked for it somewhere else, maybe facebook. However, 40 likes in two days is unbelievable and not realizeable, no matter how "good" the concept is. And honestly, he just made 4 abilities, without scaling, without cooldowns or costs, not even a lore, nothing.

But now I realize... if you want to get feedback and so on, you just have to write 4 abilities without even thinking how they will work out when ingame. And I, the idiot, try my best to write everything important. So ironic, isn't it?

Sir ArmaMalum1 votes

I will admit, through raw experience I have actually found that the abilities are the main "meat" of a champ concept, and as such is where a lot of light readers tend to gravitate. A lot of my friends like to skim concepts but skip the ones that have ample lore, stats, and work involved because when it comes down to it, they're lazy. It's definitely ironic that more work means less spotlight, but I think it can be worked around with some clever formatting. That's the main thing that's been holding me back on my 2 next concepts. That and more people coming into the Beta.

The Neverworld1 votes

I miss the old community. Once a Champion Concept was made with full attention to stats, lore, quotes and everything about abilities in detail, was rewarded with attention. But if you do the same, you won't get a single answer, because - like you said, people are lazy as hell.

Sir ArmaMalum1 votes

I think the concept council had a big play in that. There's been talk of getting them to pay a visit or two up here, but I doubt it will bear any fruit. All in all, most of the community that appreciates hard work into concepts have stuck with the old forums from what I can tell. So I'm kinda just going with the flow and popping in where I can. There are still a lot of interesting ideas that should be encouraged here! We're simply lacking a template and a few pinned posts about how to set up a concept.

-grumble- been trying to get pinning to happen -grumble-

The Neverworld1 votes

Well, I'm posting in both the old and new forum, but I can tell that sometimes you just don't get attention. The thread in the old froum has about 350 views, but no feedback nor comment. That's why I miss the old community, it was much better in the past.

Sir ArmaMalum1 votes

Ah old community time-wise not forum-wise. I'll be honest here I've played League since just after Voli patch but didn't touch the forums until a little more than a year later, so I missed out I think. I try to comment where I can but between college and family one guy can only do so much outside of nightowling the forums.

Oh, hey, before this thread gets buried I'll also drop an older Discussion I started with a list of possible Skin ideas for any bored artists out there! Here you are!
