The inspiration for this character came from the desire to introduce a new champion with a grounding effect besides Cassiopeia. The rest of the design evolved from that point: As long as he creates an AoE ground, why not give him a boost while in that area. Hey, sticky mud makes sense for being grounded, maybe he could literally sling mud and fight dirty.

Can't fully review at the moment, but some quick suggestions:

Q: describe if spell range is locked (always going full range) or dynamic. I suggest changing to dynamic and have a radial effect at max distance, being a short blind . Similar to anivia q, but no second cast ability - the player has to cast it just right fornow max effect.

W: have a higher slow % per rank, but change slow effect to "rapidly increasing slow from base % to max % over 2 seconds." Base could start at 15% (+5% per rank. This feels like slowly getting stuck in a muddy swamp land.

E: great ability. Should have unique quotes when used on cc'ed champs

R: keep the effect, but change the casting type to follow the mouse cursor. Like sion ult with more control, say like 15% reduced turn speed/control. This Provides some difference from "copying" taliyahs ult ability, and makes the champ feel more powerful.

Great overall. I like the concept.

To me he just sounds like a Tahm kench with Kogmaw abilities fam. He doesnt sound bad but we already have Tahm kench as the river king or demon. Why do we need another fish? But its not bad i guess. As long as its new it can sell.
