Can We Have More VERY Different Champions?
I think we are at a point in champion creation to where every new champion is going to feel familiar to someone else UNLESS they do something drastically different. I was wondering if we could start to create champions that push boundaries as far as what can be done in champion design. A lot of other popular MOBAs have very complicated and different champions in their cast, such as Dota 2's Techies, Meepo, Tinker, Broodmother, Io, and Rubick. In Heroes of the Storm, there are Cho'Gall, Abathur, The Lost Vikings, Falstad, and Azmodan. In League of Legends, we don't have hardly any champions that play drastically different from others. We have Ivern and Singed, and then the list becomes arguable.
I think we need to start pushing boundaries on what we think is impossible. We need to start breaking boundaries even. What can be made into a champion? What can't? How could we make something that can't into something that can? We need different, and we need it ASAP preferably.
