Missing champion archetypes
Is there any champion type/class/weapon or archetype that league is missing that you would love to see?
I'd personally like to see a shaman or avatar (multiple elements) type champion.

We are in the lack of a "old cranky witch" champion. You know, old lady, from the forrest, a horde of crows, ravens and cats following her. I could see her as a support, making potions for her team/throwing status giving or tranforming potions at the enemy. How about a passive that makes her gather herbs in bushes as ressources for spells? ^^
Oh, and about character design: make her the most not-giving-a-fuck character league has ever seen. Like: "Bitch, I'm too old for this shit, now fuck off before I transform you into a toad " xD
I really wanna see a Support from Noxus. It's so unexpected, why would someone be a helper in a place where only the best survive?
I'd love to see a spawn or swarm champion. The closest we have is Elise, but even at max spiderlings they feel very underwhelming. Also, a witch doctor sort of champion would be cool.
We are still missing a fan or a whip wielding champion. Also, a dancing support with debuff auras (exact opposite of Sona) would be cool.
We're missing a champion that uses a scythe for a weapon. Sure, Hecarim has a reaper skin, Fiddlesticks kinda has a scythe, Diana's weapon is half scythe, half khopesh, but we don't really have anyone truly wielding a scythe to cut down swathes of enemies with wide sweeping strikes.
We need a real doctor on the rift. None of these fancy shmancy magic healers.
We need Ness, for annie<3
we need a tribal witch doctor like character kinda like witch doctor from dota, but not quite a copy
Voo-doo champion,Siren,Skeleton,old hag/grandma champ,a fairy,de-buffer....
The list can go on and on.
I would personally love to see a female Ascended. So far we have 3-4 Ascended (depends on whether you count Xerath as a true Ascended), all male. In fact, with the exception of Sivir and (debatably) Rek'Sai, there's a noted lack of female Shuriman champion in general. So yeah, I'd want to see a female Ascended - preferably as an ADC or support, though a jungler could also be good too, since most of the existing Ascended have been top and mid laners.
We need a true Superhero. Sure, we have Jayce (who is pretty damn heroic), but I don't mean someone who uses technology. I mean a Superman type guy, one that can fly and has super strength.
I want to see a support from the Void. I know Vel'Koz support is a thing but he was made for the mid lane. Plus, I'm talking a support that heals/enhances their teammates in someway. It would also put into perspective that the Void isn't all about destruction.

There are no Mounted ranged champions. we have a couple of people mounted no various things 
and i suppose technically 
but there is only one with a ranged basic attack and he still rely's more upon his abilities for damage than that. The mounted archer let Gehngis Khan take control of most of Asia any one who has studied ancient warfare knows how hard this is. Then you have the Native Americans who did much the same but with the small twist of using civil war era firearms, this gave them an advantage over US troops, we had cavalry but the never used rifles on horseback. but that whole archetype is missing from the league, history is filled with cavalry archer groups making false retreats and the circling back, or chasing people out on horseback,
I could envision it as like a yordle mounted on a big hunting cat, like a Puma or a chupathingy (tehe references) with a hextech rifle, let his passive be that he can make basic attacks and move at the same time but he can only attack while he has "ammo" left in his gun and he has to use one of his abilities or base to reload his ammo would be difficult to balance but it would be a great addition
Arcane Archer (various different types of magical arrows) Mage Knight (channels magic through the sword, heavy armor, 'spellsword' style casting magic through weaponry)
Every since Xerath and Ryze's reworks have been shoved to PBE, there's been less and less electricity in the league. Sure, there's Kennen and (to an extent) Jayce, but aside from them all we have is Shockblade Zed. We need to brew a new thunderstorm on the Rift.
An inquisitor with a halberd
A flying void monster with wings
a Toad Mage of Courage
a Trans-dimensional Void Hunter
a Sage that uses medicine/poison
a Demonologist
Dual-wielding champion with a kit that actually supports the style. Katarina and Shen both duel wield blades and Olaf dual-wields axes, but I want a champion actually designed around it. Think a kit like Marth's B-directions in smash. You can combo different ways, like:
Q- lunge W-Slash E-Block
Examples: If using Q before W, W gains 10% armor penetration. If using W after E, W's cooldown is lowered by half. If using E after W, next auto deals X% health.
Something along these lines. It's kind of a hybrid Riven/Fiora kit right now, but it would be a really interactive champion to play and fits an archetype that doesn't really exist currently.
