Mundo rework

Bârd··14 votes·4,918 views

Alright, Mundo's issue are not too difficult to see.

He is the definition of a stat check champion.

Passive: +HP5 Q: The only real spell this guy has :/ W: +Tenacity with some damage E: +AD with a little extra and an auto reset R: +HP5 and +MS

Either he is tanky enough to not die or he is useless.

This leaves us with some significant problems in that he doesn't have much of an identity to build on.

That said, there is SOMETHING to work with.

Goals

  1. Regeneration based Tank/Juggernaut
  2. Cleavers
  3. Must be simple; Mundo no like thinky think.
  4. The glorious figure we got from the story on his universe page needs to be better represented.
  5. It's alright if he stays a bit of a stat stick, as long as he is not a brainless stat stick any longer.
  6. Make him an absolute pain in the ass to kill.

Alright, so onto the proposals.

Passive: The Doctor is In MUNDO CURE YOU Dr. Mundo derives joy from finding patients in need, and even more from a successful treatment. Mundo regenerates 0.5/0.75/1% of his maximum health per second for each unique unit he has damaged in the last 6 seconds. Scoring kills or assists on champions causes him to regenerate 5% of his maximum health over 3 seconds.

Q: Medical Advice 50/60/70/80/90 HP, 4 second CD MUNDO SURGERY NOW Many patients don't even realize they are sick, but Dr. Mundo is just amazing at explaining it to them. After enough advice, even the most stubborn of patients will hold still and let the doctor do his work.The good doctor throws his rusty cleaver in a line, dealing 15/17.5/20/22.5/25% of the targets current HP to the first unit hit, slowing them by 40% for 2 seconds. Deals a minimum of 80/130/180/230/280 magic damage, and a maximum of 300/350/400/450/500 magic damage to non champions. Refunds 50% its health cost if it lands, 100% if it kills.

W: Manual Brain Scan 40/50/60/70/80 HP (+.25 AD), 6 second CD MUNDO DO MEDICINE Dr. Mundo is an expert of neuroscience, and as such doesn't need a bulky, inconvenient machine to tell if someone has brain damage. Mundos next basic attack is a headbutt, dealing 60/75/90/105/120 (+.375 AD) bonus physical damage to the target, stunning it for 0.25 seconds and Mundo for 0.1 seconds. This resets Mundo's attack timer.

E: Physical Therapy 90 HP, 12 second CD MUNDO FIX SPINE Dr. Mundo knows the signs of a bad back better than anyone, and knows how to give a killer massage. Mundo picks up a target enemy within 250 range for up to 0.5 seconds, after which he slams them into the ground somewhere else within 250 units, dealing 90/120/150/180/210 (+.6 total AD) physical damage to the patient and everyone hit by the patient, stunning all units hit for 0.5 seconds. If a minion or monster is grabbed, the damage is halved and the stun will not happen. Mundo can move, attack, and cast spells freely while carrying his target (being so adept at physical therapy, he does it with one hand).

Massages are quite a workout; Mundo increases his base AD by 2 every time he casts this spell on a champion.

R: Fitness Plan 100 second CD MUNDO MAKE HEALTHY In addition to caring for others, Mundo is adept at taking care of himself as well. His body is a temple; a swolen, purple, slobbering temple. Mundo gains 25% movement speed for 15 seconds, as well as 3 charges of Adrenaline. Mundo can reactivate this ability to consume one charge, cleansing CC and healing him over 3 seconds.

This healing will always result in Mundo having at least (15/20/25% missing HP at time of Adrenaline use) more HP than he had when he popped the adrenaline, regardless of healing reduction or how much damage he takes during the spell. Healing amplification will result in a higher minimum heal Regeneration from other sources is separate.

Of course, death will stop this regeneration from occurring (he is a doctor, not a miracle worker)

do you actually know how small a .25 second stun and a .1 second stun are? I kind of don't really understand the reasoning as to why they are even there (especially given that he already has hard cc somewhere else in his kit).

and the encouragement to perpetually cast E this on your opponent makes ranged vs melee matchup very very binary on how much mundo can stack. It also makes melee matchups very annoying (for the opponent). Also kinda kills jungle mundo since he ends up missing out massively on the bonus ad. a similar issue existed with cassiopeia who used to have a passive called aspect of the serpent that forced her to harass/bully her opponents by casting skills to make up for what used to be her old ap ratios (it got reworked into what we have today with cass because most players disliked that version of cass).

also his E just looks like much worse waveclear than his current W. basically you have to build into cinderhulk/sunfire/titanic hydra if you want to beat minions because 45-100 damage every 12 seconds is very slow. which means delaying spirit visage and it's wonderful cdr and bonus healing unique passive.

i think hes e should just be just mundo picking him up and throwing him down infront of him, having a singed e anywhere seems kind of dumb.

his w stun could be buffed to compensate

Imo he shouldnt have two targeted CC spells.

dealing 15/17.5/20/22.5/25% of the targets current HP

This means the Q can't kill champions if it does current HP.

Did you read literally the next sentence after that?

"Medical Advice" is exactly the same as "Infected Cleaver", save for the name change.

Can we honestly fix the minimum damage? I'm fine with it not doing 1 damage if the target is at 4 health, but it shouldn't bypass resists for gods sake.

Test it out, the minimum damage is after resists, which means MR doesn't matter if you're not a tank.

Also I seriously hope the E base AD buff was a joke. Nobody likes stacking mechanics, especially when they feel 'rewarding' aka it doesn't matter how much you crushed them they do insane damage anyway. Especially since he gets stacks simply from casting a point and click spell on you, which is completely unavoidable with no counterplay besides don't go near him, and that's simply not possible for many top laners.

Also, can he auto the person he's carrying?

And since it's basically a 1 second stun, except better because you drag him around, that's gonna be devastating in early game where if you try to trade, he'll pick you up and plop you down in the middle of his minions, you taking minion aggro the entire time.

Also, 250 range is kinda annoying. Bring it down to 150 or 125, auto attack range.

And I don't see how this changes him at all in a 1v1. Press E, throw Q's, press W, R for heals. Oh, and W should probably be his E, its similar to his headbutt right now and it'd make more sense.

Oh, and you realize E'ing a full minion wave results in Mundo regening 6% of his max health for 6 seconds? 36% max health heal on his passive? That's literally better than a triple Darius Q blade. Yeah that ability is not only broken but also dumb. He has a single AoE spell and his damage is mostly singletarget. In teamfights, he's only gonna be going after 1 guy, and if he hurts anyone else it's because of Sunfire Cape. Which itself will be giving Mundo ~4% of his max health in heals every second, in a teamfight. This is a huge fucking buff to him. Especially since his R heals dont seem to have been nerfed

Healing on creeps is an oversight.

I might be missing some hidden functionality, but isn't that W just a worse version of Renekton's?

To be honest I don't mind there being "braindead" champions like Mundo. There are plenty of more technical tanks for me to play if I want something more engaging.

"Manual Brain Scan"..... um... that's terrifying.

How did you think messed up shit like that? Are you sure you're ok? I can recommend specialists.. And special accommodations for you...

Bârd1 votes

Oh, just a joke I came up with regarding how Mundo would diagnose a concussion.

"Mundo think you brain damage"

smash

"Now Mundo sure you brain damage"

If you think that's messed up, read up on Thresh's pastimes,

The ult seems nice, the passive seems cool but broken if it activates on minions without like 50% reduction on length/heal.

Giving him that much hard CC would probably push him more to the tank territory than juggernaut one, which I don't actually mind.

His hard CC however shouldn't be all targeted. Maybe turn his E into a skill shot to give his opponents some counterplay in avoiding him?
