Heo`Rung is a boar likely being out of the void.


Lore: HeoRung is a creature out of the void. He attacks his enemies with short and fast attacks. It is notorious for his velocity. Noone can escape HeoRung by simply running away from him. It is only possible to escape from him by fighting him or tricking him out. There were few who could resist his attacks and escape.


Abilities:

Passive: Allies can ride on HeoRung through a right click on him. Allies can only cast certain abilities while riding. Certain gap closers (Amumu Q for example) can also be castes, but the ally jumps off then. When the ally dies, he falls off from the back. If HeoRung dies, the ally falls also off. The ally jumps off through another movement command (right click, flash, teleport).

Not with me: Champion who are already riding something or the sit animation would look strange on them, can´t ride on HeoRung (Kled for example can only ride one HeoRung while he is unmounted, if he gets enough courage, then he jumps from Heo`Rung on Skaarls back)

  • Heo`Rung still controls himself.

Q: Heo`Rung roars, therefore enemies are scared for 1 second.


W: Heo`Rung jumps on an enemy.

Passive: Heo`Rung builds up movement speed. The movement speed gets only through damage or crowd control lost.


E: Heo`Rung creates a short void tunnel, which he runs through. The tunnel closes right after that. He can use this ability 3 times in a row. If he didn´t use the second or the third cast, the ability sets itself on cooldown. Every cast costs mana.


R: Heo`Rung chases an enemy. An arrow shows him the direction to the enemy. Through the color of the arrow he can see if no/ few or all enemies are near his target. He also gains an bonus on offensive and defensive stats.

Passive: Allies who ride on Heo`Rung take less damage.

Good to see concepts, but he can't really do anything else.

His tools are:

  1. Regular Basic attacks (supposing he's melee)
  2. Out of combat movement speed.
  3. Mobility
  4. Mobility (maybe damage)
  5. (Most important) He provides allies with mobility almost constantly.

What else? He has his niche, but what does he provide other than that? He can't deal any damage, he seems like the least damaging champion ever made. He does nothing when he's alone. His kit doesn't really seem to do anything other than "Take him and run."

I suggest you reconsider his kit, think about it more, think what you want him to do, what you don't want him to do, and think of something that lets him be a tad more versatile. Right now, he's just "not working".

Good luck!

P.S. Forget balance at this point. Not your job. Try to think of a kit that compliments its self.

Very interesting riding mechanics... Hmmmmmmmm

Can you further explain his e? So it has 3 casts and if he doesn't use all 3 it goes on cooldown? I don't understand that part.

You should change the animal itself. Maybe not even necessarily from the void, either. Perhaps a Rhinoceros? That would be nearly original. The charging boar is already spent on Sejuani, unfortunately. The riding mechanic would be so amazing, especially being a support/tank. The only other champion I see doing that is Tahm Kench, but your concept allows the player(s) to actually attack (limited) on this animal? Pretty legit. A different animal would also allow more DPS to emerge. A rhino per say could allow for, obviously a charge, but even a knock up with its horn. A trample mechanic. Don't get your head stuck on just mobility, I feel like that's where you went wrong the first time. You have the potential champion on paper, you just need to think outside of the box a little more. Rhinos sharpen their horns all the time! You could have a passive 3rd hit will sharpen your horn and do bonus damage, perhaps a bleed or slow. <3 Maybe even a beast master that summons illusion copies of animal spirits (not like udyr) that have enrage timers much like Tibbers
