New Champion Discussion
With the recent leak of what the new champion will be like, that is to say, a transformation champion unlike what we've seen previously, I thought it might be interesting to put out my idea as to how this champion might work, considering that it's a jungler.
Now, one of my few hobbies in League is to come up with champion concepts for my enjoyment, and to practice for what I hope to be a future job at Riot (I can only dream for now, I suppose). One of these concepts was for a jungler that, upon clearing a camp, would be able to take the form of, or change its form (whichever would work best for design and gameplay), based on which camp that was taken.
For example, if the champion were to kill Blue Sentinel and take control of its body, the champion would either be in the body of the Blue Sentinel itself, or gain Sentinel-esque characteristics. Essentially, the champion would be a "bodysnatcher" of sorts. This is all just speculation, but I thought it would be interesting if the next champion that was teased might be something like this, considering the "eye" that we got to see, which looked to be from something of an animal, or possibly a Void creature.
That, and when I've come up with concepts before, I've found an odd coincidence where some of the ideas I come up with end up being similar to what champions end up having (i.e. Braum's W, Rek'Sai's W, and Jhin's W...huh, that's a lot of W's...weird), not so much of "I thought of it first.", but more along the lines of "Huh, I came up with something similar to what they probably had in the works for years.", so forgive me for being a bit paranoid about this one.
Plus, this is more about discussion about the new champ than anything else, so if anyone wants to chat about it, I welcome some honest conversation :3
