Buff to Twitch Ultimate Idea(thanks auto correct)

Chuck Charles··5 votes·611 views

I was thinking about Twitch and what makes him good. His ultimate is so game breaking and so powerful. His lane phase is pretty lackluster, but once you get through it he's a powerhouse. The problem is, without his ultimate he's pretty useless. I was thinking about champions who have similar types of ultimates who rely on this short window of power to take over. Master Yi is one that immediately came to mind as his ultimate allows him to stick to his targets. Then I thought about what makes this so good. It's how the duration is extended on a kill by a few seconds. This rewards him for making use of his ultimate and allows him to keep it going.

Maybe Twitch can have the same thing? If you get a good ult and manage to kill someone, extend the duration of the ult by a few seconds? I know the ult lasts a good amount of time already, but this is pretty much all twitch has going for him in team fights. If you extend the duration on kill or maybe even assist as well(not sure how Yi's works), then you further emphasize his strengths while keeping his weakness in tact.

Just in case you were wondering, yes, your original title didn't go unnoticed.

Master's ulti grands him additional 4 seconds if he gets a kill. I think that it would be a great addition to Twitch, but I do not think that it will solve his problems. I think that making his Q into a decent escape is a better buff, since your buff offers a better late game, but that was never his problem, even now when he is considered a ok pick. His Q delay makes it not that much of a viable escape, so twitch is prone to being ganked, camped or just has a hard time getting away from bad trades.

while I agree that he needs slight and I mean terribly slight early game buffs, making him have a reliable escape would honestly be too much. To have the power of such an amazing ultimate he has to have some drawbacks. the real issue is that his early trading is so bad even when played mostly properly. I don't think his early game should be buffed to where he's strong early, but right now without a good support twitch is pretty damn hard to do much of anything with early on.

Honestly, I think he's actually too Ult-reliant right now. I'd rather have a little bit of his Ult power budget go toward a higher AA range or into nicer poke damage for a more survivable laning phase.

To better fit Twitch's identity as an assassin, I would rather prefer it that if Twitch gets a kill while Spray and Pray (what's the new name again?) is active, the cooldown on his Ambush is reset. This wouldn't be too game breaking because there is still that 4.5 second delay before stealthing (if you get hit).

Rat-A-Tat-Tat I believe is what it is called.

interesting idea though I'm not too sure the kind of power this would give him.
