BOXXIE (Joke Champion Idea)
Hey everyone, so I needed 45 RP for a Key and I thought "I suck at drawing, maybe I should write some nonsense to Riot and hope to make them laugh a bit". Well, I did and though they gifted me only 40 RP (well played COWWITHSPELLZOR) they suggested me to share this. Note that is completely random, non-sense idea that you could find just plain stupid. So, be careful.
Hey Riot!
You know, there's a lot of hype around new champions. Everyone right now is expecting a lot from the assassin update. I'm a person who likes to create ideas a lot, so I thought: "Why don't share some with the Riot buddies?". Here's one, totally fresh, totally fun and totally not like Shaco. Also, one thing: I would need 45 RP for a Hextech Key, but the champion is not a key. How about that?
BOXXIE, the Boss Box (all in capital letters) (art below) https://goo.gl/bs2Acd
Lore I think the lore is a very important thing for creating a loveable champion. So, BOXXIE was born in Runeterra from a family of regular chests. But she, yes she's a she, always felt different; she liked to call herself a female box rather than a genderless chest, she was also a bit weird for the others of Chestetia, because she has an eye bigger than the other, arms and a grin, which is very different from Shaco's 'cause she has a bad tooth. At first she tried to be liked by the others, she even tried to write "COOL" on her to make herself cool, but the word is not welldone so other chests freaked out and star to mock and fear her. One day, tired of being picked on by the chest puppies, she left her home, but she met some keys in Chestetia's Square rejected by their families due to their faces. Most people think that keys should not supposed to have faces but BOXXIE disagreed, so she took them with her and thus BOXXIE wasn't alone anymore.
"No, I'm the only BOXXIE here, stop stealing my name!"

Role
League is in a bit of a weird spot in the moment: assassins are tanks, mages are tanks, tanks are assassins, markmans are butthurted. Diversity is fun, but I created BOXXIE with this in mind: utility is cool, but a champion should have just ONE role for game, depending on the team compositions. With that being said, BOXXIE can adopt 3 playstyles, based on the 3 different personalities she has (a tough childhood can cause problems, but BOXXIE has none cause she's a box):
a)Tank: this is obvious, but being made of metal helps her to take damage, but she lacks constant CC unlike other "pure" tanks, offering survivability instead. b)Assassin: More of a "surprise" one, but she can be built to scare enemies with her sudden burst, but unlike the clown, because remember, she's very different from Shaco, she lacks mobility. c)Support: She's a box, she can offer some cover to ADCs.
Abilities Passive: BOXXIE spawns Pet KEYs over time, which interact with her abilities. Hitting an enemy with a key will cause him or her to become DAZEd (yes, still in capitals), A DAZEd enemy will launch his or her (or them, for bi like Kindred) skillshots the opposite way as opposed where the enemy player's aim. Also, the keys look sad, so if you're facing a Malphite or a Taliyah in lane you can get two keys with one stone and thus you can have 2 keystone masteries. (Hey, the lore never mentions if the keys wanted to join her)
Q (a KEY to their death): BOXXIE performs a short slide that knockbacks enemy minions and Teemos, her next attack will DAZE an enemy for 1.5 seconds. Now, what's interesting about this ability is that when your R is up you can stealth yourself as a Hextech Chest and unlike Shaco is a different kind of stealth.
W (KEYll Yourself): BOXXIE puts down a Pet KEY in a target location. Unlike Shaco's boxes, they have two different effects: they can either picked up by an enemy as normal or when BOXXIE is stealthed. In the first case the enemy player will recieve a Hextech Key, so when he or she tries to open a chest with it the fake KEY will explode along with the chest, causing a new definition to tilting to appear. If they're picked up while BOXXIE is stealthed, the enemy can approach her (she's stealthed like a normal box and can be seen by the others) as they cannot resist the tentation to open the chest. When BOXXIE is opened by a champion she will reveal that inside her there's another box, so you can become BoxBox for a few seconds and annihilate them with your superior skillz.
E (TaKEY This) (don't be mad at me for the pronunciation, be mad at her): BOXXIE throws a Pet KEY to an enemy, dealing magical damage. You might be thinking "hey, it's boring like Shaco" but NO, okay? Here's the deal, her E is actually a skillshot that if aimed for their head will DAZE them for a second. Also, if aimed at them while they have their back turned it will deal extra damage. Because the back of the head has a thinner bone, stop thinking about Shaco, seriously.
R (KEYhaos): Aside from the passive that interacts with her Q, this ability can be activated to spawn a clone BUT it cannot either move or attack. Huh, stupid clown? Now, the clone will draw the enemies attention to it and the 5 keys spawned around it, so their vision will slowly reduce until only the clone and the KEYs are visible. To avoid this, they must take away the camera from the clone, potentially causing them to engage in a teamfight without looking. The good part about this BOXXIE's ability is that it's like a little minigame, where you have to use it in a strategic position and the enemy must play around it. Not the clone, I mean find ways to render it useless. It lasts... I don't know, you're the ones that balance things.
This is BOXXIE everyone. One last thing: like Shaco, for real this time, she thinks she's VERY hot. So this is a hot femlae champion, one after a long time. Seriously, why did you make Jinx flat as a table and then you make Taric look so damn hot?
In all seriousness, 45 RP would be loved, but I at least hope that I entertained someone with this. Keep up the good wirk and have a good day.
(buff Shaco pls)
