(Champion Concept) Bumboo, the Teddy Gauntlet
LORE https://lolstatic-a.akamaihd.net/frontpage/apps/prod/piltover/en_US/2e123a61de9786d0f0c8676c3781b5490e0a8f4f/assets/img/progress-day-story-wide-597.jpg In Piltover, many have a personal robot assistant to help them. Whether for self defense or something else, most have a robotic helper. None are as famous, however, as Bumboo, who started off as the exact opposite of a personal assistant. It seems some of the best enforcers of justice started off on the other side of the law. While not too surprising, Piltover does have an underground society that host fights between the best of robots. Bumboo, a large robotic bear with a fluffy covering to cover up the metal skeleton, was a boxer robot. It's original creator is unknown, but it was left outside an underground robot arena. The proud human that ran the place brought Bumboo in and turned him on. To the man's surprise, Bumboo could not talk. Bumboo just made random, glitchy noises. However, when the man asked Bumboo what it could do, the nearest wall was shattered as a swift punch from Bumboo decimated the wall. Seeing potential fortune in the giant teddy bear robot, Bumboo was set up as a challenge for any robot. Unsurprisingly, every robot that faced the teddy bear was obliterated in one to two punches. It seemed whoever had created Bumboo made it for the sole purpose of fighting. This cycle of robots challenging Bumboo continued on for months until eventually the teddy bear became a little too famous and the police heard word of the mechanical menace. The underground arena was shut down for hosting death matches between extremely dangerous robots. Bumboo was taken in by Caitlyn to the police station. They tried to shut down the teddy bear, but it's on/off switch did not work. Bumboo, somehow, would not turn off and was being powered by something with a seemingly endless supply of energy. To further the issue, Bumboo didn't let anyone open it up for research and all the usual methods for forcing a robot to shut down did not work. Vi heard of the unbeatable and indestructible robot and gave it two options as Caitlyn had for her. The first option was for the robot trapped into their strongest prison cell that even Vi herself had failed to be able to punch through. The second option was for Bumboo to fight Vi and, if it did not lose, it would join the police force. Bumboo chose the second option. The fight began and Vi threw a deadly punch at Bumboo which Bumboo answered with a punch of it's own. The punches collided with each other and were both cancelled out. Vi threw a second punch and Bumboo, instead of punching into the other fist, opened it's mouth and bit down onto Vi's gauntlet. To the surprise of everyone around, even Caitlyn, Bumboo not only stopped the punch with it's mouth but cracked Vi's gauntlet. With one fist free, Bumboo sent a punch straight into Vi's gut sending her flying into the nearest wall. After a brief coughing fit and some breathing, Vi admitted that the teddy bear was good and offered it a spot on the police force. With a shrug, it accepted the offer. Caitlyn sighed at the realization that another cause of destruction had just joined the police force. She could only imagine the paperwork.

Ability 2- Spine Crack Active: Bumboo begins to squeeze the target enemy unit, rooting the target and itself for 1.5/1.75/2/2.25/2.5 seconds.

Works Well With
Blitzcrank Blitzcrank and Bumboo make for a deadly combination when on the same team. Combine a slow, but hard hitting teddy bear with a robot designed to bring enemies to him and you have a near instant death situation for the enemy if they can't dodge the hook.
Zilean The only thing worse than slow, hard hitting boxer bear is one going the speed of light. Combine Zilean and Bumboo for a rather hilarious combo where a cute and cuddly death machine rams into it's opponents with the force of a
paintrain.Janna Oh, you know that bear with incredible punching force? What if we made it punch even harder?
Performs Poorly Against
Teemo Unfortunately Bumboo, most of it's damage is gated behind a short range punch. While that punch could shatter a brick wall, Teemo will usually always stay far away from Bumboo by annoyingly kited it with his increased movement speed and enhanced basic attacks. Even if Bumboo closes the distance, Teemo can blind it to make all it's damage become null and void.
Jax In a similar sense to Teemo, Jax can dodge all the damage Bumboo is hoping to put out, stun it, and then wreck it with a barrage of furious lamp swings. The only hope Bumboo has against Jax is to try and catch him off guard with a crippling power punch, but the warning's naturally built into Bumboo's kit make this hard.
Shen Not only can Shen protect himself from Bumboo's attacks, but can also make his allies immune to it's attacks. All in all, it just makes for an extremely unpleasant experience for Bumboo to try and punch through. Not to mention Shen's natural Tank shred works against Bumboo.
APPEARANCE DESCRIPTION Bumboo is a large teddy bear, going at around 10'10, and has very dark, navy blue fur. It's ears are pink and appear to be stitched on. It does not have black, teddy bear eyes, instead having red, glowing eyes that sometimes turn green when Bumboo is happy. Bumboo does not have a chest patch. It's muzzle is a darker tan color. Bumboo's tail is a slightly lighter navy blue color and also appears to be stitched on. It's legs appear rather small, making it more waddle to move than actually walk normally. However, it's arms are extremely large in comparison to it's feet. It walks on two feet, of course. For a bear, it is rather fat, but this is due to it's fluff inside itself and not actually being fat since it is a robot.
