I'll give an in-depth analysis later today, but just a heads up: symbols like > don't translate well from docs to this board, so you have to retype them to make them look the way you want them to :)

So, is this a bruiser or tank design? I’m not sure. No Juggernaut I know of has a defense steroid in their kit, while this mundo has a few. It could work still, it’d just be VERY difficult to balance

Also, no Juggernaut has a long dash range. The longest is Illaoi, who has a fraction of that range.

I like the directions, and overall it’s a cool and unique concept. However, it suffers from wanting to do Tank things while packing Juggernaut damage, a combo that is avoided in champion for a very good reason.

Some quick fixes for your consideration:

Q: cooldown from 20–>12/10/8/6/4 remove slow

W: Remove Silence and put slow from Q here. Deals Magic Damage(Having a blitzcrank Ult on a regular ability could be a bit much, drop the silence)

E: Range from 1000–>250.

The visual concepts are good, but the cleaver on the ultimate doesn't look like it fits.

Em, ZaneShadow summarized it pretty well, so I'll just point out a few more things.

One of the most important aspect of the current Mundo is his anti-mage e. This is his current e's passive

PASSIVE: Taking magic damage or paying a health cost increases Dr. Mundo's Magic magic resistance by 2% for 2 seconds, stacking up to 6 / 12 / 18 / 24 / 30%.

This is a big part of Mundo that is often overlooked. Since you removed that MS boost from his ult, I suggest adding something like this for his ultimate's passive. ________- Although this is more of a personal preference, making his abilities cost mana instead of health probably isn't the best idea lore-wise. Besides those things this is a pretty nice rework.

Good job :D

Perhaps rework skarner? If you think that's a good idea I highly suggest you to check out this thread. It states basically most things that are wrong with this poor bug.

Hello there!

In this concept rework,i tried to make Dr. Mundo...or just Mundo...as a real experiment of one crazy scientist who w all know=))) [i hope,lol].

Anyway,i give to him something new,and keep something from old Mundo like him ult,because it will be not Mundo,if he will can't regenerate him health,right?

ANyway,hope you all like this concept=)

Ok, I really want to see Dr. Mundo updated and so will take time to go through this concept.


Visuals

I know this artwork and have to agree, it is great. It keeps the major thematics of Dr. Mundos visuals and enhances them by giving them the electric collar, which looks great and kinda gives him the feeling of the Frankenstein monster of League of Legends.

Nothing to complain here, great choice of inspiration for your concept.


Lore

First: You changed his name, from Dr. Mundo to just Mundo and there is no reference anymore of this fake title. I must say, I don't like that.

Dr. Mundo has always been known with that name and it shouldn't change. There should still be something in his new lore that explains why he calls himself Dr. Even if he is just insane and has a misconcept of the actual work of a Dr. in his head.

Second: You made him an experiment from Singed... I don't know if we should really go with that. While yes, he made quite some experiments and he could be one, it basically just makes him another Warwick, another guy who got altered by that chemistry madman. Dr. Mundo should feel distinct in his lore, he should have something that is his own, not being another version of the Warwick rework when it comes to his story.

Personally, I would like to return to the times in which Dr. Mundo was the Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde of League of Legends. That he used to be an actual doctor, but he went insane and made himself into that cruel creature we know.

Still your concept, tho. If you want him to turn out like that, it's legit. I just would like to avoid that myself.


Gameplay and Kit

Alot of thematics got lost here...

If I understand you correctly, then he doesn't throw cleavers anymore with his Q, but just uses them to increase his AA range and damage? If so, that's a no from me. Dr. Mundo definitely has to keep throwing cleavers, they are iconic for him (especially after that sweet VFX update we got).

Changing his health costs for skills to mana costs is also strange, his lore of being a masochist makes so much sense with this. I think he should keep the health cost.

The passive, while looking like a nice idea at first, could lead to some frustration. You are basically giving the enemy full control over your passive. You don't decide when to activate it in any way, just the enemy... Having this part of your kit, which seems quite impactful, just at the will of the enemy would feel bad.

But I really like your W (the charging mechanic is a nice idea and goes really well with the electric collar) and that you give him some hard CC on E. Juggernauts seem more successful if they have some hard CC and I would like to see something similar on the new Dr. Mundo. Honestly, it is kinda strange that all a guy of his size can do right now is slow you. ^^

The ultimate, you basically kept the same.... But I think it would probably need changes. This skill is a major part of why Dr. Mundo might feel frustrating to fight for many players. He definitely needs great sustain on his ultimate after his rework, but maybe not as so much regeneration over such a long time.

I would suggest to make his Q a skill with 2 effects: FIrst he throws his cleaver, dealing damage (and maybe slowing the enemy). The cleaver gets stuck in the enemy. The next auto attack on that enemy will rip out the cleaver, dealing further damage and reducing the cooldown.
