Champion Concept: Tharrik, the Beast Within
"They call me a monster... They are wrong. I am not a monster. I am many."
(This is a champion concept in the works. I haven't worked out all the numbers yet, so if you guys have any thoughts on the balancing of his abilities, put your ideas in the comments below. And if you have any ideas on what could make this champion better those would be appreciated as well. I will be working on lore, interactions, and art for this champion concept as well in future posts)
Tharrik is a tanky bruiser champion that gains empowered effects to himself depending on the monsters he kills in the jungle. The effects of the monster camps are designed to be more effective depending on their location that way you can utilize them at certain points in the game depending on what you need at what points in the game (ex. the wolves would empower your abilities that would be better for mid/late game and their team is pushing mid or would help you early on with your jungle clear). Also, the more camps you clear, the stronger you become when you unleash the beast within...
