[Fun Topic]: Runes Reforged & Old Champions

Agent Corgi·1/21/2018, 1:42:50 PM·3 votes·300 views

While scouting out New picks for Support, I came across Xerath. I took sometime to read up on him & his previous kit & I gotta say that his Old [W]: Locus of Power looked like it was super strong, giving Xerath increased range on all abilities & 16% - 40% bonus Magic Penetration. Could you imagine if he still had this ability in today's game?

Looking back, I miss alot of the older champion designs like Urgot, Sion & Yorick. However I am glad these guys and a few others received overhauls & changes.

Imagine if Sion retained his Old Kit & had access to Lethal Tempo & Deaths Dance? Imagine Draven if he kept his Wicked Blades Passive (He inflicted Bleed for using Q or hitting you with a Critical Strike, which like Darius stacked) & had access to something like Press the Attack or Summon: Aery.

If you could take a previous champion incarnation & use the new Runes Reforged system, what would you choose. What sinister combination could you guys come up with?[sg-syndra]

Old Warwick with Press the Attack. Instant proc and then some extra hits.

Xerath's Locus of Power was pretty useless outside of facing other artillery mages because his entire kit revolved around it and it felt really clunky to use. He had piss range when he wasn't channeling Locus of Power and his stun had to be setup by his other spells (It worked like Old Leblanc's Q except it stunned the target when the mark popped). His old kit would perform very poorly in the current meta where getting hit once means death.
