Lulu's Enchanting Rework Concept
Lulu has a lot of unique things about her, but nothing that makes her unique or a specific reason to pick her. When Lulu is strong in a meta, then she gets picked all the time because she is super safe and can do everything, rather than getting picked because she does a certain thing really well.
I want to see Lulu get stripped away her safety and add more enchanting elements to her kit so she is all about the enchanting mage concept, rather than pick because she can do everything and is super safe (and frustrating to play against) because of that. Also make Pix more interesting within the ability kit, he is massively under utilized.
Attack Range: 550 units Movement: 340 units per second Attack Speed: 0.667 +3% per level
Pix, the Faerie Companion (Passive):
Pix always follows Lulu around!
Pix will attack with the target that he is currently following, firing off 3 magic bolts that stop at the first enemy in their path, each bolt deals 2[+1 per level] (+15%AP) magic damage. These magic bolts deal 250% damage against shields.
Glitterlance (Q):
Cooldown: 7/6/5/4/3 seconds; Cost: 35/40/45/50/55 mana; Range: 1000 units
Lulu and Pix fire a magic bolt from their locations in the target direction, dealing 40/55/70/85/100(+40%AP) magic damage to struck enemies and struck allies, including Lulu, gain 30/35/40/45/50(+25%AP) bonus ability power for 6 seconds.
Both magic bolts can damage the same target and apply grievous wounds for 3 seconds if both hit the same target.
Whimsy (W):
Cooldown: 10/9/8/7/6 seconds; Cost: 65 mana; Range: 1000 units
Lulu grants the target allied champion or herself 100/110/120/130/140%(+20% per 100AP) bonus movement speed that decays over 6 seconds, taking champion and tower damage increases this decaying process.
Passive: Lulu gains 15/20/25/30/35%(+5% per 100AP) bonus movement speed for 2 seconds whenever she enchants an allied champion.
Send, Pix! (E):
Cooldown: 10 seconds; Cost: 65/70/75/80/85 mana; Range: 700 units
Ally Cast: Lulu sends Pix to the target ally or herself for 6 seconds, granting the target 20/25/30/35/40%(+5% per 100AP) bonus attack speed, 3/6/9/12/15(+10%AP) bonus attack damage, and 20/30/40/50/60(+30%AP) bonus ability power. Minions and pets deal 50/75/100/125/150%(+25% per 100AP) increased damage and converts its damage to magic damage.
Enemy Cast: Lulu sends Pix and polymorphs the target enemy champion for 1.5/1.75/2/2.25/2.5 seconds, rendering it unable to attack and cast abilities and reduces its movement speed by 60. Minions, monsters, and pets are dealt 80/130/180/230/280(+80%AP) magic damage, refunding the cost and 75% of the cooldown if it executes the target, and Pix remains on the target for up to 6 seconds or until the unit is killed.
Wild Growth (R):
Cooldown: 110/80/50 seconds; Cost: 100 mana; Range: 900 / 350 units
Lulu makes the target allied champion or herself rapidly grow in size for 5 seconds, knocking up enemies initially for 1/1.25/1.5 seconds and slowing enemies near them for 40/50/60%.
UPDATE NOTES:
Pix, the Faerie Companion: Shield damage increase Grievous wounds removed
Glitterlance: Now applies grievous wounds if both magic bolts hit the same target
Send, Pix!: Cost adjusted and lowered Renamed from Purple Power Parry aspect for ally cast removed Percent max health as true damage for successful parry removed Base bonus attack damage decreased Now grants minions and pets a bunch of increased damage when Pix follows the target, converting all of its damage to magic damage Now sends Pix to the polymorphed target Now can attack enemy minions, pets, and monsters and deals magic damage nuke and remains on the target for up to 6 seconds, direct executes refund the mana cost and 75% of the cooldown
(The entire point to this rework concept was to remove safe features and make Lulu an enchanting (and adding in some debuffing power with that) and have Lulu as an offensive mage rather than a defensive mage so she has a specific reason to get picked and not because she is the best supportive mage in the current meta and can do everything.)
