Lore: The Second runic war dawned the birth of farming. With It the people found a way to plant, grow, and harvest, their own stationary crops something they completely overlooked in the past due to the immediate demand for military advancement. Farming eventually developed into a highly sought after resource; the apothecaries and bakeries could only produce so much, but the troops needed more supplies. As a result farms sprung up across Runeterra, and every city state had at least one. During the third runic war most farms were destroyed but somehow the one on the outskirts of Zaun Survived. There a child was born by the name of Heidi. As Heidi grew up, she was taught the skills necessary to tend to the farm; like how to farm, keep watch, feed the cattle, and fend off intruders. As a result she gained a large amount of strength and skill at a young age.

In the years following the third runic war, cattle and farms became scarce. Many could not meet the demands of a booming nation. It was well known that Heidi's farm produced the most, the healthiest, and the best cattle in all of Runeterra. As a result Heidi's cattle were legendary. People would come from all across Runeterra to purchase the goods raised by Heidi and her father. During this time, Heidi honed her skills as a wrangler, but she was a farmer first and foremost. Overtime, she became the best wrangler in all of Runterra; entering as many competitions as possible.

Eventually Zaun's runoff started damaging the crops just as the demand for production grew to a peak. This led to hostility between Heidi's father and the high council of Zaun. Her father complained constantly about pollutants in his fields and refused to trade with Zaun due to their politics and his inability to meet their demand for his crops. Tired of his insolence the Council labeled Heidi's father an enemy of the state and decided they would silence him in hopes to acquire his land and claim it for the state.

The council sent an executioner to end her father's hostility. When he came, Heidi was prepared, and while Fiddlesticks eventually got away; she did succeed in incapacitating him. She roped his neck in a noose, but he cut the noose, and escaped her grasp, barely, with the broken noose still around his neck. Her fame for being one of the only people brave and skilled enough to put fiddlesticks on the ropes made her legendary. No matter how famous she became, she remembered the figure of the scarecrow standing over her father’s corpse; encircled by crows, and from there, she vowed revenge. She just couldn't get it out of her head and decided to follow him to the Field of Justice and now seeks her own brand of justice on the field from which the scarecrow came. The Summoners compelled by her story and amazed by her courage allowed her to join the League.

"This time ... I will make sure the noose around your neck will break it." -Heidi

Explanation of lore: This is only for those idiots who say the lore can never be. First off you don't need magical powers to be in the league. If you did need magical powers teemo and tristana would never be in the league. You don't need extreme strength; again teemo, tristana, and draven. You don't need military training; janna, rumble etc. And most importantly you don't have to have some amazing technology; Tryndemere, Draven, Garen. All you need is drive and the right tools; Rumble. As explained in her lore Heidi has drive, dedication, strength and a lack of fear in the eyes of fear itself. All of these are definitely skills worthy of being in the league. Not only that but she is an amazing roper.

A wrangler does not have to only use a rope. Farmers/cattle ranchers have a multitude of tasks outside of just roping cattle... like feeding, keeping watch, fending off intruders, protecting their land...etc. etc. That being said all of these tasks do require strength and training to do them correctly and doing them for many years, as Heidi has, can make you very strong and skilled at these tasks. All of her skills hint at these abilities. The w is related to moving food/cattle. The Q is related to roping. The E is related to keeping watch/keeping away intruders and hints at the stereotypical anti-witch farmer mob. The ult hints at moving food.

Fiddlesticks does have to be moved from one place to another. Not only is he the executioner but he is also a league member. If fiddlesticks just lived in a room forever and had no way of being moved, then how the hell do the summoners use him in the league? Not only that but if you read his lore as I have many times you would understand he only stays in the room unless he is needed. Which he can be used to make executions. Only if he is completely released will he cause mayhem which is why they keep him under very careful watch and control. Not only that but it has been many years since he was originally summoned so it would only make sense that the league, summoners, and people of power would have better control over fiddlesticks.. Enough to send him on killing expoditions. If the High council was working with a summoner it would just be that much easier... Also on a side note you can break a neck even if it isnt used for breathing...

Abilities: Inates: Defiance/Rugged

Rebellion: Heidi does not perform forced actions instead she is snared for the duration of such effects. This effect can only trigger once every 12 seconds. The rest of time Heidi is stunned for the duration of such effects

Rugged: For every point of bonus armor Heidi gains one point of bonus health and for every point of bonus magic resist Heidi gains one point of bonus mana.

(note the bonus mana and bonus health act as normal health or mana however if magic resist or armor were to be lost Heidi would lose bonus health or mana equal to the amount of armor or magic resist lost...The Bonus health or mana gained from these abilities cannot drop below 0...If temporary armor or magic resist were to be gained then for the duration of the temporary armor or magic resist Heidi would gain the bonus health or mana equal to the temporary armor or magic resist and the health or mana would decay with the temporary armor or magic resist.)

Q: Rope Em: Channeled Collision linear skill shot Cooldown: 22/20/18/16/14 Range: 820 (+60 per second channeled) Projectile speed: 1900 Channel Time 0-1.5 seconds Cost: 70/80/90/100/110 mana Slow/movement speed increase: (5/7.5/10/12.5/15+(.01 per ap))% per half second channeled Slow/movement increase Duration: 0-3 seconds Damage: 50/100/150/200/250 (75% total AP)

Channel: Heidi pulls out her lasso and spins it over her head, beginning the channel. Rope Em can be channeled up to 1.5 seconds and can be cast prematurely at any time during the channel. For each .5 seconds channeled the range is increased. Rope Em also slows the first enemy hit by a percentage per half second channeled or increases the ally's movement speed by a percentage per half second channeled depending on the target hit for a duration two times the time channeled. The slow or movement increase starts immediately after the pull is completed and does not apply to hay bale.

Active: Heidi throws out her lasso. If the first unit, champion, or minion hit is an enemy they are dealt magic damage and are pulled to Heidi. If the first unit, minion, or champion hit is an ally Heidi pulls herself to the ally. If a Hay Bale is hit it is pulled to Heidi and all enemies that are caught in the path of the moving hay bale are knocked aside. Damage is not dealt to allies or hay bale.

(Note if used on an enemy or hay bale it works like thresh's first pull. If used on an ally it works like thresh's second pull. If an enemy is in the hay Bale while heidi goes to pull and it hits the hay bale the hay bale is pulled with the enemy inside it. Only one pull can be used at a time. This ability does not interrupt ally spell casts, ability casts, movement, or attacks and can be used on all unit types except structures or terrain. This includes summoned units like tibbers.)

W: Pitch fork: Melee Targeted ability Cool down: 18/16/14/12/10 Range: 150 Throw range: 650 Cost: 100/110/120/130/140 mana Stun/lift Duration: 1/1.25/1.5/1.75/2 seconds Knock Up Duration: .5/.75/1/1.25/1.5 seconds Diameter of knockup: 250 (this is equivalent to ) Damage: 60/95/130/165/200(+60% total AD)

Active: On Enemy: Heidi Stabs her pitchfork into the target dealing physical damage she then throws the target 650 feet in the direction she is facing if the target hits terrain they are impaled and stunned for 1/1.25/1.5/1.75/2 seconds. (Note this version of the throw cannot pass over terrain but the other one can. Further note that pitchfork can be used on all unit types except structures. This would include summoned units like tibbers.)

On Ally: Heidi picks up the target with her pitchfork. Lifting it for 1/1.25/1.50/1.75/2 seconds. While the lift is active Heidi can move around freely, carrying the target with her. During the lift, the lifted target can only be damaged by area of effect, skillshots, or damage over time effects, and is unaffected by all other attacks, abilities or effects including secondary effects and on hit effects like slows, stuns, pulls, exc. as long as they are lifted. Any secondary effects the lifted ally would receive affect Heidi instead. If Heidi is damaged while the lift is active or if the target clicks the ground while the lift is active the lift is canceled and Heidi releases the ally. At the end of the lift unless the lift was canceled the target is thrown 650 feet in the direction of the targets cursor. The target can be thrown over terrain and all units within a 250 diameter of the initial impact point are knocked up for .5/.75/1/1.25/1.5 seconds excluding the thrown target.

(Note: Heidi cannot use basic attacks while an ally is lifted by pitchfork and if the ally activates a movement based spell or ability while they are lifted it counts as walking away from Heidi. the lift allows the user to move a target but does not prevent that target from moving away from the user. The lift does not cancel spell casts. While lifted the lifted target can basic attack and cast abilities or spells. If Heidi is pulled and does not receive damage she does not drop the ally. If she does receive damage she does drop the ally. If she is killed while lifting an ally the ally is immediately released.)

On Hay Bale: Heidi Stabs her pitchfork into the Hay Bale consuming the active Hay Bale and adding a stack to Hay Bale. If pitchfork is used this way the Cool down till Heidi's next pitchfork is reduced to 9/8/7/6/5 seconds.

E: Hand torch/torchthrow: Hand torch Toggle/aurabuff Range: 800 (this is equal to quinn's e) Cooldown: 12/11/10/9/8 Cost: 10/11/12/13/14 mana per second Bonus armor/magic resist: 6/12/18/24/30 ally armor/magic resist: 3/6/9/12/15 Toggle: Heidi lights her hand torch revealing all units within the abilities range. During this time Heidi's armor and magic resist are increased by 6/12/18/24/30. All allies within range gain half of this bonus as long as they remain in range. If Handtorch reveals an champion for at least three seconds Torch Throw may be activated for the next three seconds. (note this ability functions like Quinn's w)

Torch throw: Targeted on click ability Range:650 Damage: 60/105/150/195/240 +(.40 total ap) magic damage Total Burn damage:8% of target's current health Burn Rate: 2% of current health per second at time of tick Burn duration: 4 seconds Cost:60/65/70/75/80 mana On enemy: Heidi Throws her torch at the targeted enemy champion, minion, or summoned unit dealing magic damage and burning the target for four seconds. While the burn is active the target and all units within 125 range of the target while it is burning receive damage equal to 2% of the burning target's current health per second at time of tick as long as they remain within the burn's range.

(note a summoned unit would be tibbers or malzahars voidlings... As the target moves so does the aoe... the damage is dealt every second and takes into account health regen and heals of all sorces which is why it deals 2% of current health on tick so if the target had 2000 health the initial 240 damage would be dealt so the target would have 1760 health say they had 20 health regen they would have 1764 health after regen kicks in then the burn would deal damage based on that number the next second they will regen another 4 health and then another set of damage would be dealt based off of that number after health regen... If they had higher health regen, or if they were to suddenly heal for say 200 health, it would deal more damage... This ability doesnt kill targets only weakens them so the less health they have the less damage it deals)

R: Hay Bale: Stock/ground targeted aoe Range: 650 Vision Diameter: 250 Inner circle diameter: 200 (about the size of graves's w) Outer circle diameter: 500 Stun duration: 1/1.5/2 second Blind duration 1.5/2/2.5 seconds Maximum active at a time 1/2/3 Maximum stacks held: 3 Active Hay Bale Duration: 70 seconds Cool down: 30/25/20 seconds Cost:80/95/110 mana Stock/ammo Passive: Heidi Gains 1 Stack of Hay Bale every 30 seconds. While Hay Bale is active it is considered semi- passable terrain and functions like bushes by either team, but enemies within it are revealed. It Does however function like impassable terrain for other effect purposes. Hay Bale cannot be attacked or damaged and can only be targeted by Heidi's abilities. Active: Heidi's throws the Hay Bale at target location, costing a hay bale stack. If an enemy champ is hit directly by hay bale they are stunned for 1/1.5/2 seconds all other units within 150 range of the active range of hay bale are blinded for 1.5/2/2.5 seconds.

(note the cooldown is the amount of time in between casts of hay bale. At any level heidi still only gains one stack every thirty second. Hay bale is a 200 range round bush that reveals enemies within it. It is terrain and does not turn invisible it does however blend in with bushes. It is about the size of graves w. Hay Bale can be thrown on top of enemies. Further note the Hay Bale has an active range of 200 units meaning it is the size of say Graves’s w and blinding all units within 150 units would mean that, when thrown, it would blind all units in a total area of 500 units except if it hits an enemy champ directly then they are stunned and blinded.)

The Concept: Heidi the Wrangler is a melee/support tank who excels at single target engagement, health tanking, and countering enemy mages/assasins, while keeping her allies alive and well through the use of guerrilla style warfare and careful timing. Heidi has 3 ranged attacks decent damage and plenty of crowd control. The idea is that she can control the lane with pulls, throws, and burns while also providing her allies with plenty of support and keeping them alive.

Each of her moves can be used separately or together on her allies, enemies or her ult which is her hay bale. Her hay bale acts as a moveable, throwable bush with decent active range and the ability to stun and blind enemies on throw. While Hay bale does not turn invisible it does blend into bushes and can serve as extra cover and can reveal enemies within it. If the ally is close enough to Heidi she can pull herself to them and enemies out of battle with her q, throw her allies or enemies into it with her w or buff allies and damage enemies with her e.

She has four ways to engage and each one is better depending on the circumstances. She can either throw her ult at the enemy stunning and blinding them which is good if there is a gank or large crowd engagement, pull them with her q which is great for pealing, use her e and run in which is great for early game/warding, one on ones, or countering ganks, or she can protect her ally with her w then throw them into battle which is great if the ally is tanky or for surprise/tactical attacks, to prevent trolls her w can be countered by an ally who does not want to be picked up by clicking the ground, if the enemies are low on health, or if the ally or enemies can disengage easily.

Heidi also has four ways of retreating, she could throw her ult, blinding enemies, and run away, Q them slowing them so she can run away or keep them slow enough to use her w, use her q to pull her to her allies and run away , use her w on enemies so she can stun them and run away, or use her e and with the added armor and magic resist hope she can run away.

She can also help allies engage or disengage by both roping them and pulling herself to them so she can distract the enemy while her ally has increased movement speed with her q, using her q on enemies and pulling them out of battle so the adc can engage them in a one on one, or using her w on her allies and throwing them into battle or away from it. Also while her w is active on an ally they are untargetable by most damage types and can attack and use abilities which are great for either engagement or saving their life. It is important to note that while her abilities are powerful she is very risk/reward oriented.

All of her abilities have a weakness. Her Q is a channeled abilities and channels can be interrupted. Her W on an ally can be interrupted and only makes the ally untargetable not invulnerable meaning they can still be damaged by certain effect types. And if her w is used on an enemy it only stuns them if they hit terrain, it can also be interupted if she takes damage. Her e is awesome and helps make her tanky enough to take damage with ease but does require a constant mana flow and only lasts a short time. Her ult may have a short cooldown but it takes a while to gain stacks of Hay bale.

While her damage output and potential are great you have to be good enough to know your weaknesses and be able to prevent them from being abused. Sustain damage/heavy range can mean the death of her so it is important to be aware of your surroundings at all time when either playing as or against Heidi. This means that Heidi can be great but is hard to use. Despite this at any skill level she provides plenty of support for allies. Thus she fits the support role very well with a kit unlike most others that concentrates on keeping the ADC alive while supplying plenty of damage and cc.

Heidi's kit focuses less on straight damage or heals/shields and more on combos/control. You can string together her abilities in all sorts of ways. All of her moves work together to create a fair and balanced, decent bot or top laner, with good cc decent cs if needed and plenty of versatility. This champ is completely ready, workable, and completely unique of all other champs.

Basic combos:Ready up E. Q enemy pull them away from group and into hands of adc. W that enemy to stun them and throw them against the wall for the secondary stun. Throw out your E. Ult for aditional stun if needed. String in some basic atacks in there and you are home free.

Second Combo:Ready up your E. Use your vision to scout out the enemy. Ult the Enemy. Q them to you. W them and throw them into the wall. E them and finish them off.

Third Combo. Let your adc engage and stay towards back. Ready up your E. Q to your adc. W them to make them untargetable. Throw them behind enemy team. Ult enemy team as they try to engage adc. Throw out your E for added damage then ready it again.

More intense combo: This combo works when you already through out your hay bale. For this to work make sure Hay Bale is 650 feet from River bush in either direction preferably towards your tower. Let your enemies push into position. W your ally and throw them into your bush from river bush. Q your ally to follow them. Ready up your E. Throw out another bush on enemy. Throw out your E.

If this champ ever were created I would ask for nothing in return but a free version of her. Thank you for all of your time and please reply to the post. I have worked hard and diligently on this champ and I feel she is deserving of your support. My first version of her got 7900 views I have done a lot of changes since then and I feel the updated version should get more if people support her.

Quotes/Jokes/taunts Heidi's voice is sweet with a hint of southern bell...

Dance: the watermelon crawl.... you dont know what that is look it up....

Stat priorities: 1. Armor: Health and armor from one stat would give Heidi a good amount of protection against heavy hitting adcs. 2. Magic resist: This is a great stat that not only protects you from magic damage but it also gives you bonus mana which is essencial to keeping Heidi alive. 3. Attack damage: This stat helps Heidi have a decent early game damage output. 4. Ability power: great late game damage potential and increases the damage for her q and e as well as the potential of the movement boost or slow. 5. Mana regen do to her high mana costs and long cool downs mana regen helps out a lot when it comes to getting that mana and maintaining pressure. 6. Cooldown reduction and health regen help out a lot but are not essential.

Runes: it is essential to balance runes according to what stats are lacking. Acceptable marks include hybrid penetration, attack speed, and attack damage. Acceptable seals include armor, percent health, scaling health or scaling mana regen. Acceptable glyphs include scaling ability power, magic resist, scaling magic resist, and cooldown reduction. Acceptable quintessences include experience, gold, movement speed, hybrid penetration, attack speed, attack damage, armor, percent health, scaling health, scaling mana regen, scaling ability power, magic resist, scaling magic resist, and cooldown reduction.

Masteries: here are some basic mastery suggestions 21/9/0 0/14/16 0/25/5 all of these builds work. The First build works best for an aggressive support, or a mid build. The second build is best for mid or a traditional support build. While the third build is best for top or a tanky support build.

Items builds: Heidi's second passives give armor and magic resist items a really strong extra kick in Heidi's build. Armor increases health as well as durability so items like Randuins Omen, Sunfire Cape, The Lightbringer, and Locket of The Iron Solari are doubly effective. Magic Resist is also doubly effective in increasing mana as well as magic protection so in this sense Odyn's Veil, Banshee's Veil, Spirit Visage, and Twin Shadows are also doubly effective. Items like Guardian Angel and Moonflair Spellblade are triply effective do the the fact they increase armor and magic resist. Mikael's Crucible, Talisman of Ascension, and Guardian Angel are like must haves in any Heidi Build. If you want Damage I would suggest Maw of Malimortius or Mercurial Scimitar, Abyssal Scepter, Iceborn Gauntlet or Zhonya's Hourglass. Defensive Builds should include Spirit Visage or Twin Shadows, Randuins Omen or Sunfire Cape, and Locket of the Iron Solari. Other acceptable items in any build would be Guinsoo's Rageblade, Hextech Gunblade, Archangel's staff and Trinity Force.
