[SUGGESTION] ¨Charge¨ based abilities (Think D Va´s Defense Matrix or Pharahs Jetpack)

I feel like these abilities would be really refreshing and could add a new aspect of the game for many new and old champs. Its a mechanic i really liked in OW because it really makes you think about your timing and usage of these abilities. It could be anywhere from a simple movespeed or damage ability thing to something more complex along the lines of Yasuo´s windwall. Let me know what you guys think and if you have any ideas.

Oh, I know the answer to this! What is Mana!

Seriously, you're asking for a resource that's reduced/depleated when you use an ability that gates your use of the ability again, and that builds back up over time. It's not special in League because it's one of the core mechanics of the game.

Defense Matrix has been considered to be one of the most broken abilities in OW by professionals. Resource management is just too potent, and in LoL, where abilities are generally much stronger due to a slower TTK, resource management of an ability like defense matrix would make whatever ability it's attached too MUCH too strong when mastered.
