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
If this is gonna be a champ, he/she better has this quote "Someone calling a doctor?"
"Well, I'm no doctor... no really... but I know something that would work juuuuuuuust right..." evil smlie
That's actually a pretty cool idea.
I think it would be cool if there were multiple types of herbs and certain combinations altered her and her abilities.
I would love to see this champ come into existence. The fact that they don't have a standard hag-like character has always surprised me.
But we HAVE a cranky old witch champion with all those crows and ravens and stuff following them. Their name is Swain.
No, I want a batshit-crazy cat lady from the forest xD Swain is more... supreme general with creepy birb powers xD

Lulu is basically that except she isnt old
If Fiddle and Lulu had a baby
Hmmmm yeah, that would be a more fitting description...
Although Fiddles new lore mentions some mysterious old witch...
I love the gathering reagents from brush idea. Maybe she could also have something similar to Nunu's consume to alter the effects of her abilities (think eye of toad, hair of dog, etc.) I am partial to elderly champions myself. Zilean, Corki, and Heim were some of my first favorites. I'm not sure why, since I'm a young lady. But old people are so damn charming, and I'd love an old lady champ!!
In that case she would be a jungler or some kidn of roaming support.
I just imagine an old lady beating the shit out of wolves with just her cane...
"Hah, filthy mutt! Don't you even DARE to bark at me..."
I can see players moving over the map, trying to get the ingredients needed for that one potion they want to make 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 like to see a Yordle Support from Noxus that came from the worst of the worst. Cause Noxus is not very accepting of Yordles and doesn't favor the idea of helping others. But they would still be successful in Noxus due to the simple fact that they are extremely powerful, and Noxus is a place where strength = success.
What about a fearsome yordle that gained respect in Noxus for being so vicious?
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.
I think that was kinda the goal with Yorick but it just doesn't quite cut it.
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.
Damn it, Summoner! I'm a doctor, not a witch doctor!
You're selling this idea way better than I am.
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

We need Face McShooty from Borderlands 2.
I cannot upvote this enough!

Knock knock? Who's there?! SHOOT ME IN THE FACE!!
END OF JOKE
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.
There used to be a concept floating around the forums that was for a female cat ascended.
The Egyptian goddess of war was Sekhmet and she had the head of a lioness. Could make a pretty cool inspiration for an ADC Ascended or perhaps a jungler or something.
There's also a goddess with a hippo head which I think would just be hilarious for a champion.
ooh desert theme, female Ascended (who all, except Xerath, have animalistic qualities) Make her a support, with owl like qualities like desert burrowing owls. her ult instead of getting bigger like
or
she stealths allied champions in an aoe around her
Voo-doo champion,Siren,Skeleton,old hag/grandma champ,a fairy,de-buffer....
The list can go on and on.
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 think Braum is our superhero champion.
Braum is more of a folk-hero than a superhero.
is our superhero attitude guy... He just needs a suit
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.
Arcane Archer (various different types of magical arrows) Mage Knight (channels magic through the sword, heavy armor, 'spellsword' style casting magic through weaponry)
-Actor -Android -Beast Master -Architect -Arms Dealer -Astronomer -Balrog -Banshee -Basalisk -Battlemage -Cannibal -Calvaryman -Chef -Chief -Cyborg -Cyclops -Demigod -Demon (teemo) -Dreamer -Dryad -Elemental -Elemental Bender -Enchanter (Dragon Age: "Enchantment?") -Fortune Teller -Genie -Ghost -Giant -Goblin Tinker (Heimer I suppose) -Golem (of other various types) -Grave Robber -Gunslinger (of a more classic variety, like a westerner with a bullet system for his resource) -Harpy -Homunculus -Hydra -Hypogriff -Jedi -Jouster -Judge -Knight -Leviathan -Manticore -Minor -Morph -Necromancer -Nymph -Ogre -Painter -Parasite -Peddler -Pegasus -Philosopher -Poet -Politician -Poltergeist -Rebel -Sabotuer -Sage -Satyr Scientific Experiments (moar pls i love 'em) -Scribe -Sculptor -Shapeshifter -Soothsayer -Spellsword -Stonemason -Thief (Where is C????) -Virus/Disease -Witch Doctor
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
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.
Whenever Ao Shin comes around, that'll probably bring plenty of thunder.
Soon(tm)
I want to see this too! Too much lightning, not enough storm. If anyone's ever played Rift, think the stormcaller subclass. Or a champion who uses all different types of weather, and can mix his/her abilities to produce different effects (CertainlyT, I'm looking at you.)
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.
check out Katana in Infinite Crisis, they did something like this for here and it is a little bit op and SOOO fun to play
