Quick Glacial Augment idea

Kyunsei··1 votes·705 views

Glacial augment could evolve with your champion level.

My current thoughts are :

Glacial Augment At level 6, applying the slow from glacial augment to a target already slowed for at least 50% root the target for ... seconds At level 11, applying the slow from glacial augment to a target already slowed for at least 50% stun the target for ... seconds

Just dunno how long of a CC it should apply.

I think GA could use a tiny buff but I think that's too much. I would prefer that attacking a target reduces the cooldown on that target by .5 seconds so that it's an option on more DPS centric characters like Yi, Shyv, and others who depend on autos but have limited or no CC.

I doubt it would be healthy to allow champions having acces to a root, even at the cost of one Keystone. It can lead to broken/unfair interactions, where the root eliminates any risks.

Example: Zilean uses his E and Roots the opponent. Now he can Q-W-Q for free AoE Stun with high follow-up Damage. It makes High Risk/High Reward situations into Low Risk/High Reward spammable interactions.

Well, I guess it would be too strong for ranged, maybe only for melee then ?

Braum Ekko Gragas Ornn Sion TahmKench Skarner Yorick Rumble may abuse it, but I think it is not that bad. It may work based on how long the duration of the Root is.

I personally would prefer the slow from Glacial Augment to stack on top of normal slows, so that it still achieves the role of kiting/engaging Keystone, but without completely immobilizing people.
