(Weapons start in nova's inventory. 4 disappear when he chooses. Weapons grant stats, these stats double when the seal is broken, and more are added when the weapon transforms. when the weapon transforms, a unique passive may be added instead)

I have a weird feeling like people are gonna spend a really long time contemplating what i wrote.

So...I could give you a detailed write-up of the champion, but I'm going to make two statement and then ask a question first, because this question is really important, and should show you why this champion has huge, glaring issues.

Statement 1: League of Legends requires knowledge of a champion's abilities and capabilities, whether you're playing a champion or playing against a champion.

Statement 2: League of Legends games begin (in competitive play) in the pick/ban stage, where it is important to be able to see what sort of team your opponent is building so you can respond accordingly with your own choices.

Question: Can you see how a character with 5 different sets of abilities, who builds differently, scales differently, and poses a different threat with each of those 5 ability sets (and who can select which he is using once he is in-game and has seen the entirety of the enemy team), might be an anathema to the design philosophy League has, which is that you should be able to predict your opponent's capabilities upon seeing their champion selected?
