Now this is just absolute theory madness, but what if when Ivern is in a game he causes the jungle monsters to change models and sound effects? That way, when anyone kills anything in the jungle they have to hear heart-wrenching whimpering sounds as they kill each camp for gold. This could insta-tilt the enemy jungler depending on the player (and possibly your jungler too if Ivern isn't a hardcore jungler)

I'd record their whimpers and replay them on loop as a clear both jungles because the cries of jungle camps would fuel me all the way to at least masters

If Ivern is a jungler, there's some major thematic mismatch

Unless: He jungles differently. Does not kill camps. Instead he interacts with them, maybe like, drain gold from the camp for a health cost, then buffs the jungle camp to make it harder for the enemy to kill. Whole new game of counter-jungling. Don't steal enemy camps, just make them stronger/worth less gold so it slows down the enemy jungler's clear speed. Or buff a camp, put a ward down, then wait for enemy jungler to come try to kill it, then kill them while they're already fighting buffed camps/losing more hp than normal to clear.

Or he could pul an Enchantress and recruit jungle camps as his allies. Imagine grabbing the birds or the wolves ten charging into lane to gank with a snarling pack of wild animals beside you.

I would love to see him pull a Chen and have a jungle army. Imagine Charging into lane with two Gromps by your side. A prince among toads.

Maybe. Don't think it'd work so well though, cause comparatively, jungle camps are still pretty weak. Likely just get outscaled to hell, or camps/pets would just wavecleared with the minions. Unless he can buff their tankiness a lot... Then it might just be a boring lane shove. Also pet control sucks in league. :/

But if they could find a way to make it all work and not be clunky as hell, I'm all for it.

Yorick's maiden seems to be using some new 'pet' AI, with it's ability to (sorta) act on it's own. Maybe they found a way to use that tec to pull off a better pet controller?

Would be even better if they played Arms Of An Angel when they died.

Bet you will like that one :

inb4 Ivern concept had been created around : What if the monsters in the jungle were actually adorable and kind ? What if we were killing for no good reasons ? What if someone was there to protect them from us ? But I'm pretty sure Baron Nashor would be an exception to the rule.

Might be too early but... Are you working on a champ ? Can we expect to see more of your works be this year or the next ? I'm a fan of all your champs, especially Jinx and Jhin :D Wanted to say thanks for making them happen.

Not ironic at all given his theme. It is likely he will have some new mechanic to defend jungle monsters rather than killing them.

To be fair, those are just the puppies. It's like how Wolf pups IRL are adorable wouldn't hurt you, but the full grown ones are vicious and wouldn't think twice about making you their next meal.

Wrong, adult wolves are actually pretty shy for predators. They tend to avoid humans, even lone humans, and ones on reserves (used to human presence) are even somewhat sociable animals. The 'alpha to omega' pack structure is also only partly true- there is a lead wolf, but in general a pack is like a big family that takes care of each other. The only time a wolf is ever 'vicious' is when it's scared out of its mind! Otherwise, even when hunting, they're pretty calm and precise predators.

TL;DR: Adult wolves are pretty cute too and probably wouldn't hurt you unless you scared 'em.

Seriously, they are just neutral little guys. They do not fight for politics or a kingdom or power, they just want to make a nest and protect their gold. But oh no, you just can't let them have it, can you? You have to go there, let the helpless kids watch as you slaughter their father, then you smash them to pieces too, steal their gold, and then boast how powerful you are.

And killing is little to express what YOU are doing. You are smashing them, cutting them to pieces, devouring them, ripping holes into them, burning them alive, freezing them to death, absorbing their energy, shooting them from distance, summoning catastrophic spells from the sky, punching them, electrocuting them, killing them with any way you could ever imagine, and all that for your vain and endless quest of seeking power, you- you CORRUPT SELFISH BASTARDS!

I so hope that Ivern actually does something like petting the jungle monsters, just so it syncs with his voice overs of "Next time, more petting and less stabbing" right now. I would so adore that.

I wonder if he's gonna have like a passive that he gains levels by being near camps. Maybe it's like a sunfire cape effect where it slowly wittles down their health without you actually hitting them, maybe at the cost of his health so that you still take damage from clearing the jungle while not actually damaging the enemies. Who knows.

VoidacSep 18, 20161 votes

I bet he starts with his ult automatically, and it lets you tame and bring jungle camps with you.

Calling it now.
