I think a "Craft your champ" mode could be as fun as urf was

So hear me out, the idea of this mode would be that you craft a champion, the most broken and fun thing you can imagine by doing the following

Base: This dictates your base stats and also your passive Abilties: You can select from any abilities on any champion, but only one ultimate

So maybe you're gonna run with vayne W, Gnar W, and Vi W on a kalista, or maybe you're going to go with all empowered abilities, or even pure CC. A part of this mode would simply be the big brain boy ideas of making your own champion from all available abilities.

would there be broken stuff? Fuck yeah! But that's sort of the point. This mode should be jenky and fun

Other ways to make this fun Two additional skill tree points.. yep that means an additional keystone: Run two keystones just to make it even more wonky. Reduce death timers by about 75%

all gold and xp gained is shared across all 10 players so you're always on an even footing.

tower health, armor, damage, and mr increased by 4 times

The reason for all of this is simple: I want people to focus on their OP champs, I want them to really enjoy playing those champs. There's a lot of fun in games like Diablo and Path of exile in making your own build and I think a mode that opens this up in league could really make it better for casual/weekend play. The best part about urf before AR came out was how funny it was to see some of the broken stuff, dying to insurmountable stuff.

So If I took Base for ranged Syndra + Passive Picked Rengar Q so empowered AA Nautilus W for the On hit + shield. And TwistedFate pick a card Then select Shyvana ultimate.

Would that make me one shot everything with an AA and be tanky?

With R up I press E and lock in a reed card for max AOE damage, W for the on hit. Tracendence grants me True damage on W and 25% more on Q my E Picka card AOE is larger.

I AA with Q active and it does AOE due to Shyvanas empowered Q + 25% + W on hit + True damage + AOE Red Card + onhit +Explosion from Shyvanas E.

99% sure I just made a nuke in League of legends.

An ability draft mode would take a nightmarish amount of work to develop.

Consider all the dev time that went into making Sylas's ultimate work. Now you have to do that for a large number of abilities (any ability that's indicated by a unique visual, like Draven's Q or Kindred's E).

Then there's also abilities that simply don't work without other parts of the kit (Azir's Q and E needing his W to function, Illaoi's Q not actually doing any damage on its own because its damage is derived from her passive...)

Plus, in the end, most people would forego normal abilities entirely and just pick Caitlyn base and stack AA modifiers (Jinx Q, Kog'Maw W, Twitch R).

Veigar passive Sylas ultFizz E AurelionSol W Jax E = the ultimate afk outplaying machine.

veigar passive gives ap per ability hit.

fizz E

auralion sol W

sylas ult a anyone styled ult. (since sylas ult auto hits and causes tower aggro you can say it gives 1 ap)

jax E immunity to auto attacks and reduced damage on AOE.

Passive: Mordekaiser Passive

Q: Shen Q

W: Vladimir W

E: Sylas E

R: Kassadin R

Toxic mobility, sustained %max health damage, high AP scaling, half the kit has no mana costs. Kass R/Sylas E + Shen Q = Morde's passive, then use Vlad W for massive aoe damage that heals you (passive is still up during this)

Taric

Taric Q

Nautilus Q

Jax E

Volibear R

Late game you would have a 3 second cd naut pull and counter strike to keep people locked down as well as amost permanently have counter strike up mitigating a lot of damage and Taric's passive gives him 2.5 attack speed with just a wits end. This attack speed combined with Volibear's ult would be really strong.

As a side note, this would be almost impossible to program. The only way this could happen is if they did something similar to Sylas's ult where he actually transforms into the champion whose ability he is using. This would be impossible in a lot of combinations though like in my template doing counterstrike, activating Taric's passive and Volibear's ult, and using Nautilus's Q. This would be 4 different champion's abilities active at the same time.
