Shoto Todoroki is an anime character from My Hero Academia. I think both his backstory as his abilities would make one well of an intressting league of legends character and here's why:

  • Haf Cold, Haf Hot mechanic: We have some overheat mechanics like Rumble but we never had a bar that goes both ways. If you go to cold you are slowed and if you are going to hot you get burned. A ballance between an offensive & defensive playstyle.
  • Daddy issues: You have a badass father that breeds you just for genetics. That's hard and not really an lore that has been explored yet. It's opens up a lot of other characters as well like his dad and failed brothers & sisters that where unlucky to not have the proper proportions. In the anime story the mommy when crazy and tried to kill him so would be a nice dark story.
  • **Multi-functional abilities. Riot has been trying out this a lot lately like the Warwick Q, Pyke Q, etc.. But what if we do this for an entire kit.

An ability example:

  • Q: Fire Ball: Skillshot that throws out a fireball (single target damage)
  • Q Hold: Cast ice spikes in front of you (AOE damage), example: https://i.imgur.com/tC9coex.png

That sounds like ripping off the original character. Just let Riot create their original champions. They already created great champions such as Jhin, so they certainly can design more that will be as good. ( though Jhin is one of the greatest if not THE greatest champion ever created, so that's quite the standard. )

Furthermore, we already have Annie, who's using fire, and Anivia, who's using ice. Having a champion wielding both type of magic would seem really awkward. ( it'll look like a fusion of Annie and Anivia )
