[Gamemode Concept] Three in One
Been meaning to work on this idea for a while, as it always seemed interesting.
Lore
Excited. That was all that was all that I felt at the time I made a break through. I was working hand-in-hand with the Institute of War, my biggest client yet. They had seen my fantastic work and contacted me to work on their next big project! Oh I can only imagine how my career can turn out if I were to please the Institute of War! Heimerdinger himself would see me as his successor!
But enough babbling, onto subject. I have been working on these robotic champions that the Institute of War have been wanting to experiment with. Summoners would be able to summon three different Champions, could link them to this robot, and this robot could take the form of any of those three champions at anytime. With some given time to change of course.
_I have been experimenting with minions and the monsters that populate the jungle, as it would be unnecessary and unsafe to test with champions; and thank myself for that! I have had so many deaths of minions and monsters, namely because of the size differences and different postures. However I have developed a system that change size and shape at any given time! I was able to transform from a normal caster minion, to Gromp, then I was a wolf! It is fantastic!
Now the only flaw with this mechanism is the normal statistics that a champion would have. While I was big bad Gromp, I found that he only had half the strength that he would originally have. I tested around with other monsters and found that the mechanisms strength is definite, and it an average of all the living things you put into it. So for example, I could put in a Teemo, a Tristana, then a Sion; but even in Sion's form he would _only have the average strength and durability of all three champions. _
Another downside to this system is the time it takes to switch between each champion. Originally, it was around 5-10 seconds to switch champions, but with a little tinkering around I got it down to 2-3 seconds. While this is still bad, it is definitely a step forward. Perhaps I will find a way to shorten it, but it will have to do for now.
It seems like the Summoner's at the Institute of War are pleased. They want to put these animatronics into Summoner's Rift. I am now mass producing these things by the hundreds to prepare for the bloodshed these things will cause.
The Gamemode
Champion Select - Player will be able to select three different champions in a blind draft pick without bans.
In game - In game players will, of course, be able to switch champions. This is done by an item that is seated below the trinket item (where a theoretical number 8 item would be) and when activated an menu will come up with the different champions you can switch to. This will be followed by a 2-3 second wait to switch into a champion where enemies can attack and possibly kill you.
Stats are average by the three champions you have, and the amount of health and mana/energy is kept (mana and energy can be converted by % of current mana, then convert that into % of current energy ( so for example, if you have 500 out of 1000 mana, that would be 50%. That would then be converted into 50 out of 100 energy.).
Cooldowns can be recorded similarly to how Nidalee's cooldowns are recorded between forms.
That's all I have to say, yay or nay?
