So as much of the LoL knows, a lot of the competitive players are from Eastern Asian countries (i.e. Korea, Japan, etc.) And so knowing a bit about sports in those countries, baseball has a large presence over there as it does in the U.S. My proposed idea would be the first sports-based champion in League.

Casey the Silver Slugger- a marksman that wields a baseball bat and hits baseballs towards enemies

Passive- Still up in the air about the passive

**Q- **Batting Practice: before games player hit on the field to warm up, and most of the time it is where players show off their strength and hit home runs Casey would gain range but would lose movement speed

W- Switch Hitter: in baseball a switch hitter has the ability to hit from both the right and the left side of the plate. In Casey's case he would gain attack speed and would hit from the right and the left

**E- **The Cycle: hitting for the cycle in baseball is extremely hard to do (When a player hits a single, double, triple, and homerun in a single game) Casey would hit four balls at enemies with each hit accumulating more and more damage where the final hit would critically strike (Animation could possibly be something similar to Xerath's Ult)

R- Grand Slam: in baseball a grand slam is the most significant thing a batter can do offensively; scoring four runs in a single swing. The animation would be similar to Jinx's Ult but would be controllable with the mouse and would only be able to used against visible enemy champions

Please let me know what you think and comment what you would add to make Casey a champion that you would like to see in the future of League

Thanks

Most important for me: How do you want to bind him in the lore? He is a baseball player, what kind of lore would make him an extraordinary being in this world of hex/chemtech, magical space dragons and charming fox ladies?

Baseball is pretty modern, so such a champion should probably come from Piltover or Zaun. More likely Zaun in my opinion, I could imagine that the children of Zaun are enjoying a game similar to baseball. Maybe give him a steampunk design and give him a hextech bat?

Would be great if you could put some thought into that. ^^
