A forum post for brainstorming ways to improve the mystical story unteller (some bard) in light of his current 37% win rate. When proposing a change please talk about your reasoning.

Q) Stuns the first target hit for a brief duration and has increased duration if it hits a wall or another target.

Reasoning: In the land of utility supports, Bard has 2 skills purely focused on utility with no hp interaction but out of his entire kit has no reliable peel if an assassin leaps on his carry. Even if he hits the assassin with his Q there is no guarantee it will stun them due to the reliance on walls or second targets. Adding this would give him some non-gimmick utility and allow him more options for protecting his carry than stunning his carry.

Give him the ability to teleport with his ulti.

Explanation: When he hits his ulti and all the characters inside are allies, as long as there are no enemy champs caught within it, he can lock the area down and teleport the content, including himself, into anywhere on the map that is lit by minions, turrets or wards etc.

But doing so will place the ulti on a slightly higher cd, or maybe the mana cost scales with how many people being teleported.

Food for thought.
