Just had it as a shower thought so it'll be brief and lack of really any detail but what if there was a champ that his / her ult changes based on what skills you max 1st/2nd/3rd. Like there ult is complete different in each of those scenarios but I think it would be an interesting concept and bring a lot of utility to one champion.
Shazzbot694 votesThat may sound interesting, but keep in mind league is a game of meta and all that will happen is people will find the best ultimate and just level up skills to get that one each time
Chikaku3 votesGreetings Fellow Concept Creator. A note for you.
But what if you try to abilitize (Choosing abilities depending on your matchup) against a certain lane opponent and then receive an ultimate that is barely usable?

Rugondo4 votesFair question but what if you gave this concept build to a utility mage or a support. I think you could balance it to where you would level certain skills in certain match ups and still have a generally good ultimate without it fizzling.
Chikaku5 votesSo like:
Q: A healing ability = R: A mega healing ability
W: A shield ability = R: A mega shield ability
E: A damage ability = R: A mega damage ability
But what about level 6? You can't max an ability before level 6.

Maybe the ultimate is based off which ability is the highest rank at the moment, giving ties to the ability that reached the tied rank number first? Example: Level 8: Q rank 3, W Rank 1, E Rank 3, R rank 1. The R mimickes Q because they got it there at level 5, and have been ranking up E since then. This is actually the leveling pattern I do with Lux support as I shift from poke oriented into shielding oriented
Then you could have an ultimate like Ryzes, with only 2 ranks available. Then as a passive the champion can rank any 1 ability to rank 6, locking the others at max rank 5. That way the player gets even more power into the ability they want to have their Ult mimick

It could potential be a weaker base ability as ult that gains additional properties based on the first ability you max out, sort of like a hybrid between the passives of syndra and victor.
LordGeovanni2 votesPeople would just complain that they cant get the best ult while maxing the best skill first and if they can it negates the design.
Snowbrand1 votesIts kinda like a karma ult then? But only one ability gets it?
