Champion Wishlist

All these champions are very unique with attacks, appearance, lore, primary weaponry, etc. But champions that have been released so far, yeah, they are cool and all, especially Ekko because they finally have a real Time Traveler champion but it's not exactly what I'm looking for at the moment. I have a wishlist of certain parts of new champions I wanted to see. Majority of them have to do with the whole technological theme. . . and guns. . . lots of guns. . .

Let's get to the list.

- Mage Gunners Pretty much all the gunners in the game right now are primarily marksman type champions. I never seen a mage who uses guns as a primary weapon. Heimerdinger is close but he builds guns, not use them. You can go AP Corki but that's not his primary role. I want to see a gunner who focuses on AP builds. The person can use a rocket launcher or a grenade launcher or just a laser rifle. Whatever guns he or she uses, it's gotta be for AP.

- Support Mechanics/Gunners Mostly gunners that could heal. I made a champion concept of a Support Gunner named Davis, based off of Veradux from Sonny whom has the same title. The whole idea is having a gunner/mechanic champion that primarily supports his teammates. That's something I don't see much and a lot of us are looking for supports and I feel that this is one type of support I would love to see in the game.

- Robot Mechanics Someone who builds robots to fight for him or her most of the time. Like how Yorick summons his monsters to fight. Although they might have a similar play style, I'm focused more on the theme.

- Silent Gunners I never scene an assassin gunner before. I'd like to see a gunner who equips himself with a silencer for all his weapons. I made a concept long ago based off of this idea. Though I did not get such a bright review for it. The gunner can be marksman or mage as long as the entire focus is to be an assassin.

- Champion for Hire There are some champions that fight for money but most of the time that's not really the focus. I want champion with a lore that's based on his financial status. I don't really see enough champions fight for gold to keep putting foods on their table. This one doesn't necessarily have to be a gunner. He can be a swordsman, a mage, whatever he can be as long as he's doing it for money. He really needs money.

- Chef Now this is when things get a little unusual. Yeah there are chef skins like the one for the upcoming champion, The River King. But what about a champion who's main role is to cook for his allies and maybe make food out of his foes? This will most likely be a support champion. The idea sounds ridiculous, I know. But for some reason, Riot can do anything to make it work because. . . well, this is their game. What do you expect?

- A Tank champion I don't mean tank as just a primary attribute, no I mean a tank champion who drives a tank. Sounds very unusual but look at Corki ! He rides a helicopter! A helicopter! I think another vehicle champion would be as harmless. (Speaking of which, I feel that Corki could use some rework to help him be on par with the other newer champions). Same with Rumble . He drives a mech. So another yordle in a vehicle shouldn't be a problem. Not just a yordle, look at Sejuani ! She's on a boar! Nunu is on the back of his big brother. Another rider shouldn't hurt at all. But if another rider should join the league, I want the rider to be one who drives a tank so playing role as a tank would make sense.

- Ranged Tanks Okay so this is related to the last one above this one. All the champions with tank as primary attribute are all melee. Sure, there are some ranged champions that can be tanks like Urgot but that's just a secondary attribute. I want a ranged champion with it's primary role as a tank. A lot of people would disagree but bare with me. Riot might make this one work.

- Staff healers Soraka is definitely a healer but she. . . I don't know. . . it that a staff she's holding? I can't tell. Anyway, I'd like to see the classic white mage champion. It can be a guy or a girl. Doesn't matter. They gotta be healer champions.

- Rifleman Just some guy who uses a rifle as his primary weapon. And I mean a guy because majority of the gunners in this game are female. Gangplank doesn't count because his basic attacks are ranged. I am definitely glad they made Graves and Lucian but they aren't using the guns I like. Graves has a shotgun, Lucian uses two laser pistols but that's not the guns I'm looking for. Corki should also be considered a gunner champion but. . . he uses a vehicle. . . I want to see a rifleman type champion. A guy who uses a rifle as a basic attack weapon.

- Sniper Rifleman Same goes with a champion wielding a sniper rifle. A guy who uses a sniper rifle for long range attacks like Caitlyn . She's using a. . . sort of sniper rifle. . . But I want to see a guy use one as well. It's just something I don't see much.

- Dark Lore Backstories that are darker. Way darker than Amumu . Someone with a very dark, depressing, sad, or even disturbing backstory. But less graphic enough to stay with the game's age rating. I made an a dark concept a few months ago about a soldier who suffers from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder which is something that soldiers from World War I and II have dealt with before. He's a champion whose effectiveness is based on how much damage he's taken. All this champion's suppose to be is a champion with a very dark backstory. I don't really see everyone else's backstory as dark. Even if it's just innocent people, or loved ones of an individual dying. We've seen that before.

- Cars Last but definitely not least, someone who drives a car or a motorcycle. Now before you get mad or confused, let me explain. Like I said earlier about champions riding a tank, it's another vehicle champion that can be allowed to be played because Riot already has vehicle champions so another vehicle shouldn't hurt as much. I would pick this champion because not only is this champion riding a car, but the effectiveness comes from movement speed. The faster you go, the more damage you deal. I want a champion with that type of build. Okay, maybe not entirely focused on going fast but you get the point. I don't know how it's gonna work but if Riot makes this champion, I'm sure they will make him work.

And that's my wishlist. It's ridiculous, I get it but I just wish games these days would get a little more innovative. I'm glad games like these are getting into that unlike certain game plays I know (http://www.legitreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/call-of-duty-advanced-warfare-logo.jpg ) (Yeah yeah, Call of Duty isn't that bad but it's starting to get old.)

You guys have a wishlist? Go ahead and share it. Just keep the chatter safe and friendly.

finally have a real Time Traveler

Except Zilean is the better time traveler.

Also you seem to have an obsession for guns, generic "dark" characters with 0 content or reasons and ... um, cars.

No buddy, just no.

Call of Duty isn't that bad but it's starting to get old

Heard Advance Warfare is actually somewhat decent, but that is not saying much for the rest of the recent releases such as MW3 or Ghost.

I think the reason why Gun related champs typically fall into the adc-class is because there aren't that many options when it comes to ranged weapons except for guns and bows/crossbows.(not saying these are the only options,but they are the most common),so when riot makes a gun champion,they most likely put him/her into the adc-category,because thats where they fit in the most. But in the end it is not impossible for there to be a gun-using champ that plays like a mage,I mean we have Katarina who is a blade expert and she goes ap.

As for your specific ideas: -Robot mechanic:They actually had a concept for a mechanic with a robot buddy once,but it was scrapped and eventually reworked into Vi.So it is likely they eventually do a champion like that

-Silent Gunner:sounds like a ranged assassin,could work since they already made a ranged assassn with ahri(dunno if that would work if he was ad though)

-Champion for hire:Sivir is pretty much this.It is not part of her kit,but she is a mercenary who is more interested in gold than anything else.

-Chef:I think this is something that will be done at some point.Support sounds like a fitting role for that champ,creating food for his/her allies to consume.

-Tank champ:I think this will be difficult to do,but not impossible.The biggest challenge is most likely going to make the champ feel right,I mean a tank should be tanky,but should also offer a lot of fire power and even some range,so it sounds like a ranged fighter which is probably going to be rather difficult.In the end though I think the concept itself is pretty solid.

-Ranged Tank:Well they kinda tried to do that with urgot and failed.They then made Thresh who is basically a ranged tank(nowadays he is categorized as a fighter,because he can be played rather offensively as well).I think it is possible for ranged tanks to be a thing.

-staff healer:Well it was made clear by rioters that Soraka is pretty much our white mage.Yes she has a pretty big staff,but it is still a staff.While there might be future champs who can heal,I doubt they will be ever so focused on healing like soraka.

-Rifleman:Its most likely just a matter of time until we get a champ with a regular rifle.If it is gonna be a man or a woman though is something we can't be sure.

-Sniper rifleman:I doubt we'll ever get another sniper champ.Whenever a new champ is done,they'll try to give said new champion a new core theme that isn't already in the game.But since we've got already Caitlyn as a sniper,there is most likely never gonna be another sniper in the game.

-Dark lore: I dunno,wouldn't Riven fit your description pretty well?Her whole squad was bombed to death,by her own nation,leaving Riven kinda traumatized,that surely left some scars on her.Overall I think we are going to get some darker stories eventually(but also some lighter ones from time to time)

-Cars:They actually had once a concept for twin yordles on a motorcycle,back then half of that concept was mixed with the concept of a mad bomber and Ziggs is what we got.So I think it is something that might eventually get into the game(I'd say motorcycle is more likely as a car could look a bit too clunky for a character)

I got another list to share in this thread. What do you guys think of. . .

- Automotive Mechanics: Replacing the Car suggestion with the mechanic who builds machinery based on the Automobile. No, he wouldn't be riding a car. But he equips himself with machinery that basically makes him go fast. For his ultimate, maybe he deploys and rides his motorcycle for a few seconds while everyone across the map hears his motorcycle roar. Perhaps a special skin where he transforms into a vehicle like Transformers or transforms part of his body into a motorcycle like in Generator Rex.

- Distant Lands: I've always wondered what the planet looks like beyond the seas of Valoran. In fact, I'd like to know the name of this whole planet. Maybe a champion from a distant land beyond the seas would give us this information. Maybe have different technology or magic compared to the existing ones. He or she could be a researcher who's sharing the history of all the lands outside of Valoran that were once together with Valoran until they all split apart. Like how Earth's Continents use to be one entire land called Pangaea.

- Aliens: What if there were other living beings beyond the stars that Valoran knows today? Creatures or Intelligent beings from Galaxies Far Far away, making a landing on Valoran's surface. They could be there to harvest, research, warn people, challenge the planet, what else. . . live in the planet, destroy the planet, save the planet, claim the planet, take refuge, or find something that was stolen from them that's in Valoran, whatever typical alien invasion stuff your minds can think of.

- Dimensions or Worlds: What does Valoran look like in a different dimension? What if someone from a different dimension suddenly comes into Valoran's dimension and comes across his different self? What will they do in the Fields of Justice? What powers or abilities or weapons do they have that their other self doesn't?

- Cancelled Champions: During the very old days of League of Legends, there were some champions that were cancelled. Since Riot's been doing so well in making new champions over and over again with no cancellation whatsoever, you think maybe they can reattempt making these champions? Give them a good kit to make them fit right in, especially Tabu, the Voodoo Shaman. Although he was seen in a Coffin back in the days, he could have a lore where he returns from the dead for vengeance or something. I don't know. . .
