Idea on a Portal ultimate

darkdill··1 votes·590 views

Watching the Overwatch gameplay trailer gave me an idea for a new ultimate, though not a Champion to tie it to.

Warp Gate (tentative name)

Channel for 3 seconds to open a portal at target location (global range, but you must have sight of the location). If you finish the channel, the portal enables one allied Champion to use the portal to teleport to the location you channeled at (but not vice-versa). The portal closes if you are killed, after a few seconds, or once an ally uses it. Very long cooldown.

Think of it like a global-range version of Thresh's lantern, though with a lot more restrictions on its use and no shield mechanic. Tactics!

That's way too strong. Imagine you using that at your fountain, and just going to the enemy's base to backdoor. Or realizing the enemy is taking baron so naturally you just port there. It's like a global range Twisted Fate ult that can be used by anyone.

It'd be a one-way portal, not two-way, and only recalls from the portal's location. The Champion with this ultimate has to get to the position first before casting the portal to bring someone to that location.

If that location were in the enemy base, you are easily overextending and will probably die if caught channeling.

Ohhh, alright. So the portal brings someone to him, he doesn't just cast it to anywhere he pleases.
