@Meddler: Is there any way to make a Champion who specializes in the "Zerg Rush"?
As the above says, "Quantity has a quality all its own." Yet our only minionmancer Champions either have them as just an add-on to their kit (i.e. 
, 
), or are getting reworked because of bad gameplay (i.e. 
). But that doesn't mean that Zerg Rushes are toxic to the game, right?
I'd find it really awesome if there was an eventual Champion who could encapsulate the idea of "I am the Swarm", sending (almost) endless waves of cannon fodder at the enemy to overrun them.
"Why make this?"
There's a number of reasons:
-
The mechanic of sieging down an enemy with Zerg Rushes currently isn't available in any Champion's kit. Zz'Rot Portal doesn't count, as it's an item. Other Champions who have minions can't really use them for siege.
-
No Champion in the roster has an "I am the Swarm" thematic to their design, leaving the slot open.
-
Riot's always looking for new gameplay styles for newer Champions, right? A Champion like this one could potentially open up more viability for siege compositions.
The idea of a Zerg Rush Champion is NOT impossible, but I will not say it'd be easy to make. Still, I'm hopeful that Riot is at least experimenting with the idea in their studios.
