Gameplay Mechanic Idea: Jump Pad
Ever wish you could create your own Blast Caps in certain parts of the map as part of a Champion's kit? I think something like that could be extremely interesting, if situational.
Here's a rough version of how I'd do it. Take appropriate salt.
#Jump Pad Place down a Jump Pad at a target location that lasts X seconds and takes a short time to activate. Allied or enemy Champions who move onto the Jump Pad are launched a preset distance in the direction they were moving.
This could enable all kinds of nifty tricks, and would be less uni-directional than Bard's Magical Journey (Bard's is one-way only). Imagine planting this down to let a teammate leap forward to get into a fight, or put it in a very specific spot to zone enemies such that if they end up stepping on it, they'll get launched right into your team's turret.
Please say that this could potentially happen, Riot.
