New Champion Idea: Sir Oswald, the Humble Knight

Hello Once again my fellow summoners! It's been awhile since I've been to the boards but their are so many things I want to see in this game and I have alot of ideas so I might as well post them here ;). I've been playing this game since the start of Season 4 and I love all the changes the game has went through but something that I want to see more of is another stance champion like Udyr. So here is my idea for a stance based champion that I think would be fun to play, lets hop right into it shall we.

Sir Oswald is by far no hero. He is but a humble knight of Demacia and is willing to risk his life and join his glorious leaders into battle. Sir Oswald is not as strong as his beloved commander Garen or as valiant as his dear prince Jarvan IV in fact he is rather average, he doesn't posses any abilities like his respected commanders so rather than trying to use power abilities he turned to the power of weapons. He trained himself hard, honing his skills with all of his select weaponry until the day came when his commanders were called upon to join the fight in the Rift. He grabbed his weapons from the armory, walked home, kissed his wife and children goodbye, and followed the path of his great commanders.

Alright now for what you were waiting for. Abilities, kind of ;)

Passive: Fatigue- Sir Oswald has a hard time keeping up with these strong heroes, as Sir Oswald auto attacks his Fatigue meter begins to fill up, his damage slowly decreases per swing, but he also begins to sweat. Sweat- Sir Oswald becomes SLIPPERY (are you proud Phreak) making him hard to grab thus increasing his tenacity, the higher the meter of Fatigue the larger the tenacity bonus. Once Fatigues meter fills up completely Sir Oswald pulls out a Demacian Made Ration and consumes it, he feels rejuvenated and gains Adrenaline Adrenaline- Sir Oswald's next auto attack is empowered and deals % health damage and gives a small movement speed buff.

Minor Passive: Whenever Sir Oswald switches weapons it costs Fatigue but his next auto will deal a small amount of bonus magic damage

Q: Sword and Shield- Sir Oswald pulls out his a small shield and short sword Q passive: Sword and Shield gives Sir Oswald a small % to block incoming auto attacks. Q active: Shield Bash- Recasting Sword and Shield makes Sir Oswald preform a Shield bash, knocking away enemies in a small cone in front of him, if the target is directly in front of Shield bash they receive a small stun. (Think of a very small Camille W where the inner part is stun range and the outer part only knocks people away)

W: Greatsword- Sir Oswald unsheathes his greatsword W passive: Greatsword gives Sir Oswald farther range and damage but lessens his attack speed. W active: Relentless Charge- Recasting Greatsword will cast Relentless Charge, Sir Oswald charges at a target slowly (for he is not as fast or agile as a hero) if Sir Oswald hits an enemy champion He immediately gains an** Adrenaline** proc and his next weapon swap will not cost any fatigue.

E: Shortbow- Sir Oswald pulls out his Shortbow to deal damage from afar, unfortunately Sir Oswald can carry only a limited amount of arrows (the amount of arrows increase per point put into Shortbow) Sir Oswald replenishes arrows if an enemy is killed with Shortbow or if he returns to the fountain. E passive: Shortbow gives Sir Oswald bonus AD, Shortbow also has a set drawback time to fire arrows, attack speed will quicken this drawback time. E active: Flaming Arrow- Recasting Shortbow will cast Flaming Arrow- Sir Oswald ignites one of his arrows dealing damage overtime.

R: Scream of Rage- Sir Oswald thinks about his family and the emotions of protecting them floods into his mind, he sees the enemy and gains a rage so large he lets out a scream (Please make it audible across the map similar to Sion's ult :) it would be really cool and funny).

Scream of Rage- Freezes Sir Oswald's Sweat meter (meaning that the bonus tenacity will stay active with** Scream of Rage's** duration but the Fatigue meter will change). Sir Oswald's Fatigue meter resets to 0 and will not increase during Scream of Rage and becomes blind to the summoner. Every 3rd auto-attack while Scream of Rage is active will deal an Adrenaline proc on the enemy, Sir Oswald also gains increased attack speed.

Bonus of Scream of Rage: Shield Bash, Relentless Charge, and Flaming Arrow become stronger Shield Bash: Range of cone becomes larger and the entire cone stuns enemies Relentless Charge: Speed and damage of Relentless Charge increases to match that of a hero Flaming Arrow: Sir Oswald shoots 3 flaming arrows at the same time showing off his skills as an archer

Scream of Rage End: After Scream of Rage ends all the fatigue used during the duration of Scream of Rage will rush back into Sir Oswald, if the Fatigue surpassed 100% of the Fatigue meter then Sir Oswald Passes out from exhaustion and Power Nap is initiated.

Power Nap: Regardless of Tenacity Sir Oswald will lie on the ground until his Fatigue meter reaches 0 once again (even if the meter was at 1000%) As the Fatigue meter is going down during Power Nap Sir Oswald's health regen is increased substantially. Damage afflicted by enemies will quicken the speed at which the Fatigue meter drops during Power Nap

Gameplay:

Laning Phase: Sir Oswald's laning phase would be very hard compared to other champs, his Fatigue passive decreases the amount of damage he does making CSing harder to do and trading would be a pain. As he begins to level though he can effectively make use of his recast stances to either engage or kite an enemy champion. His Relentless Charge, if landed, will be his main source of trading as it gives him an Adrenaline proc and gives his next weapon swap for free meaning that his fatigue bar will be smaller which means MORE DAMAGE. As you play Sir Oswald you would want to utilizes the recast abilities to finish your** Fatigue** meter to give you Adrenaline procs making full use of his auto attack damage.

Team Fights: The combo that I see Sir Oswald pulling off would be really fun in my opinion. The perfect way to set up your combo would be to fill your Fatigue meter up to almost full in order to get the most out of your Sweat buff, you would then use Scream of Rage to freeze your Sweat buff (Which gives you tenacity) and begin your carnage. You would be a fighter with high tenacity and your auto attacks will be doing much more damage because your fatigue bar will stay at 0, you would probably engage with Relentless Charge, then follow up with an Adrenaline Proc, then switch to Sword and Shield (by now the enemy team will be focusing you,** Sword and Shield** will mitigate some damage dealt to you because of its passive) Then you would proceed to Shield Bash them and hope to stun as many as you can. As your team follows your sweet engage you could use any weapon you like, as the fight would be nearing it's end you would switch to Shortbow and fire Flaming Arrow at targets running away. Just remember, after you finish the teamfight most likely, if you used everything, you will enter Power Nap, making you immobile but regenerating your health. If the teamfight was still going on while you entered Power Nap hopefully your team will protect you and your regen will save you from dying, and if the enemy does begin to focus you remember that Power Naps Fatigue meter goes down much faster if damage is being dealt to you.

Well If you read everything I thank you, I know I wrote alot. If you read only the abilities that's cool to. I would love to hear some feedback about what you guys think. I believe Sir Oswald would be a really funny, kind of quirky champ and its something that League could use right now. All the new champs recently have either been way too serious such as Evelyn or Kayn, aside from Kled love that guy, or they have been all powerful gods such as Zoe or Aurelion Sol. I think It's time for a really fun light champ to play that would still have the potential to be strong. Thank you all for reading my idea, please give me some feedback, would love to hear it and hey, maybe one day Riot will see it and consider making a new stance champion. Cheers everyone and have a wonderful Christmas.
