Josiah, the True Warrior
To those survivors of GD, I'm sure you read this before, and this is a slight change compared to the old one. But for those new here, enjoy reading of what I have in mind
Lore: Ain't gonna make it long, so Imma just put it almost as short as Shurimas
Josiah, know to be the True Warrior of the Frejlord, was one of those rare warriors who doesn't fret or cower in any fights he's been in. In every fight he proposes, he yields great courage & dignity to always fight til the last breath, between man & man. The only thing he despise the most were those type of warriors who only fights with puny arrows & guns, which would disgrace their own warrior image. And so, as Josiah begins to prepare himself by donning himself with the Relic Armor Cast of Frejlord, which has been pass down from his great great ancestor, he sets off to the Fields of Justice for two purposes: To fight the best of the bests, and to dispose off of coward range mercenaries"

Playing as Josiah
- Use Muscular Power, follow up by Suplex & Triple Blows can do devastating damage against a single target by surprise.
- Josiah excels in small skirmishes against a couple of range champions solo due to his passive. Try roaming around their lane once in a while.
- It would be ideal if you were to build on Attack Speed more than Attack Damage to increase damage output to lower the Triple Blow's cooldown faster. A balance of both would be suitable.
Playing against Josiah
- If you're a range champion (eg. Ryze or Lucian), Josiah is considered a high threat when being alone in lane, while Josiah's power is low when together with a single ally of his.
- Deny him to fight against you face-to-face in melee range as much as possible. The longer he battles in melee range, the stronger he becomes.
