Ket and Julie, the Dynamic Duo
Hey guys. Allow me to present an idea for a fun, balanced, easy to learn and hard to master "double champion" that's controlled with the mouse and with alt+click together. I wanted to keep things as simple as possible and leave out any numbers as to allow Riot to do all the balancing and to have the freedom to take the idea and turn it into something more wondrous and their own. I can only hope that they see this.
Roles: Top, Jungle, Marksman
**Lore:**Ket and Julie were hunting for food in the forest when they were caught within a bloody battle between Demacia and Noxus. They tried their best to escape the carnage together, but were caught in the blast of a powerful spell that left Ket wounded and Julie dying. Desperate and bleeding, he carried her body to the Demacian lines and stumbled into the healer's tents, and it may have been fate that Soraka herself was there. The dark magic was deep within them both and quickly spreading inside them like a ruthless living thing, and the healer knew she could not save Julie, and that Ket would follow close behind. She was thought there was nothing she could do for them... until she saw the necklaces that they both wore, shaped to fit into each other. She took the necklaces, symbols of belonging with one another, and strengthened them with their love for each other and their will to survive and she combined it with her power to give the trinkets a healing aura that could fight the dark magic inside of them... Though it would never leave completely. If the two necklaces ever become too far apart, the protection will fail and the tendrils of the spell will begin to spread throughout their bodies once again. Ket and Julie were bound for life.
But then that's how they always were, weren't they?
Overview: The two fellows are brother and sister, with Ket being the older and with Julie being quite a bit younger. While Ket fights with a sword and wears armor, Julie wields a bow and arrow and is quick and nimble. If one of the two siblings die, their necklaces both lose power and the other will follow suit soon after. Stats: Julie is young and frail and only has a small percentage of the health points and resistances that Ket has. No matter how well-armored he becomes, he must always watch out for his little sister. If she gets caught out then he will fall too. What she lacks in toughness she makes up with agility and deadly aim, with greatly increased movement speed and attack damage. Ket is the "focus" champion that's controlled with the regular mouse, and abilities are casted through him. He's also tough, and has a large amount of health and resistances. However, he only gains a small amount of AD and Movespeed from items. The two siblings balance each other out in terms of defense and offense. Julie acts as a pet and can only basic attack, and will automatically stay within range of the necklaces unless commanded to do otherwise, or CC'd/Pulled away.
Passive: Fierce Love -If Ket and Julie become too far apart, the necklaces will dwindle and they will start to take damage that does an increasingly larger percentage of their max health until they join back together. -If either Ket or Julie dies, the survivor will enter a state of rage and gain a large movement and attack speed boost as they try to avenge their fallen sibling before they die themselves. Ket acquires Julie's AD and Movespeed if he's the one who lives. (While a great balancing factor, this also allows a lategame K&J with a lot of lifesteal to bait out Ket's death before counter-engaging with a raging Julie dealing incredible damage and healing against the passive's burn for a decent amount of time before she dies.)
Q: I've Got 'Em! Ket gains a movespeed boost. His next basic attack towards a champion or jungle monster grapples with them. Both are held in place, but Julie is free to move and attack. Its length varies by how much more or less HP the target has than Ket.
W: Watch Out! Ket dashes towards Julie, scooping her up in his arms and continuing in that direction for a set distance. While Julie is in his arms, all damage is dealt solely to Ket. (This is to serve as an escape and a protection from high damage nukes, but if Julie is positioned badly then this won't save them from the enemy team.)
E: Brat Tosser If the two siblings are close enough, Ket will pick up Julie and toss her to a location. If this is done during Watch Out!, the distance is increased but she can only be thrown in the direction that Ket is running. (This is to reposition Julie in teamfights, as well as for bringing her along before flashing over a wall)
R: I Miss You (Available at level 1, decreases channel time with each level up) Ket and Julie both hold their necklaces up high. After channelling, she will be teleported directly in front of her brother.
This kit is built around Ket and Julie fighting together, while Ket keeps his little sister safe and Julie bounds around, dealing damage and keeping her fragile self out of reach of the enemy. No matter how fed these two get, Ket will always be vulnerable to nukes that can kill Julie in a single blow, as well as other things (hello Blitzcrank). This is meant to address a desire that's been around for a long time: A champion that utilizes a permanent pet, allowing for a really fun playstyle, and an extremely versatile champion. It may also allow K&J to go bot lane together while a support goes middle or top lane instead.
Thanks for taking the time to read through this, friends.
