[Champion Concept] Rough hero idea

I had an idea for a champion who uses a revolver. The revolver would have 6 shots. After shooting 6 times the champion will switch to a melee weapon. Each ability will load a different kind of bullet into the revolver, giving the champion 6 shots with bonuses based on which types of bullets being used. You could have slowing bullets, bullets that boost attack speed, and even bullets that stun (if all 6 hit the target). The ultimate would allow you to combine two types of bullets and apply bonus damage and range to the attacks.

I just wanted someplace to unload this idea before I forgot it. Anyone can use this idea if they want. I have never been good at naming a champion or providing lore or background flavor.

So basically a champion that only auto attacks, Probably gonna need more gameplay than that.

Also udyr doesn't count because he's an old champion

Jhin kinda does the chambered shots thing already, but having abilities chamber new shots with additional effects is new.

I have this mental image of a champ running around with an unloaded revolver in one hand, but having melee auto attacks. Each AA or damaging ability would load a round (AAs are full damage rounds but Q/W/Es would load in a reduced damage round that applies an extra effect (IE armor shred, slow) into a revolver cylinder graphic displayed on your hud. once you have loaded 6 rounds the revolver cylinder spins and snaps into place (stopping AAs for a second or two and randomizing the order of the rounds) and the the following 6 AAs are ranged with the effect of the rounds starting at the top chamber going clockwise. the Ult would lock the cylinder even if you have between 1-5 rounds, keeping the order of rounds and increasing attack speed. if the ult is cast while the cylinder is already locked your next AA flairs the revolver unloading all rounds instantly.

just thinking of enemy champions reacting to hearing this champions revolver cylinder spinning and snapping into place makes me smile :-p
