A new champion concept. (A Crazed Knight)

So for the past few years of playing league, i've seen many champions become released and many champs fail or just plainly be super OP. [Looking at you Leblanc on release] None the less, none of these champs have really inspired my inner medieval nerd. I would like to see a Knight. Yes a Knight. Not just a plain old night but spruce it up a bit. Now i know what you're thinking "wtf that's so boring and unoriginal, hurgledurglelurgleas.dfawe.f....." NO! i say! This champ would be very interesting with the skill sets. I've thought about this for a few months so go easy on the criticism but here it goes. (have no clue what to call the champ but in the interest of reference we will call him Excalibur) Ok so this guy is going to be a bruiser tank, or go straight up damage. His lanes will be top or mid and he will be a sustain/ burst damage depending on how your build is. His base skin will be just black plate armour and chainmail with a magical longsword. His helmet will be flat at the top with a cross as the opening in his helmet. (Sorta like the black knight from Monty Python and the holy grail.) This Knight is on a crazed rampage to fight for his king (Jarvan)

So his Passive? Ok in medieval times there was a technique called halfswording and the murderstroke, to put it short it's a way to puncture the enemies plate armour with either the pomel, crossguard, or just grab the blade to shove it into a weak spot. The passive will be called "Mordschlag" "pronounced MordShlagk" Every 6-10 seconds there will be a 3 second chance to hit an enemy weakspot (sorta like fioras but not directional just a simple auto will do) that does extra damage upon striking an enemy and also ignoring 80% armour.

Excalibur's Q will be called "Sweep" a 1 second channeling move where Excalibur sweeps his sword in an 180 degree dealing physical damage to all enemies struck.

Excalibur's W will be called "Battle Fervor" an ability which Excalibur equips his shield (which is on his back) and reduces all Oncomming damage for 2 seconds. (by 50%) During this time he will also gain a magic shield scaling on 5% of his max health which if destroyed within 2 seconds after his shield goes away, his q's cooldown will reduce it's time by 90%

During the medieval era you had to have been in top physical shape to wield a sword and the armour aswell (as it was very heavy you silly sod.) Which is why his E will be called "Savagery" You gain a rush of movement speed and lifesteal for 5 seconds. (because he should already be kinda slow because of all the armour)

Now his ult "Deranged Belligerance" Excalibur goes into full attack mode for 20 seconds and equipping his second sword (many knights had 2 swords back then) and changes most of his skill sets.

Evolved Q will sweep 2 times then thrust both foward

Evolved W will cross the 2 swords in a X shape and then counter attack anyone who tries to attack him ( the counter attack will stun them for 1.25 seconds) The Evolved version will not allow the shield from the original version.

Evolved E will double the bonus's you get from the original spell aswell as reduce his incomming slows by 35%

I hope that this makes it into the game! I'd love to see a crazy Knight like this into the game as i think the w will allow for some cool outplay potential.

IF there are any questions, i will try to answer them as soon as possible.

Ps. Help me with a name

Well I also like the medieval kind of style champion, one sugestions would be his W: Battle of fervor. You could give him a counter attack type of ability.

For example: Activate your W to block a melee ranged attack with your shield and instantly do an basic attack. It could prock sheen effect and crit also. Could work with your passive. If your passive is up that attack could be an guaranteed critical hit. Cause in medieval fights shields was used to block incoming swordattacks and a way to attack your enemy in a safest way possible by stabing. ( cannot be dodged) For ranged attacks: Deflect up to 2 incoming basic attacks from an ranged enemy and deflect them back in a stright line. also Deflecting basic attack type abilities as GP Q, Ezreals Q, something like that.

Also it would make more sensee if he had 2 swords but not as you have mentioned. More like a sword for regular batle that is onehanded and is equiped with the shield and the second one is a two handed during your R period. Increased range, damage and cleve passive would be nice. :)
