Planeswalker Champions [League of Legends X Magic: The Gathering]
Something I had recently thought of is what would happen in 5 league champs ended up crossing over with the multiverse of Magic: The Gathering. so I took 5 champs in the game (preferably those who haven't had a skin in a while) and tried coming up with how I can turn their abilities into planeswalker abilities. I'll be coming up with Magic-style cards of them starting as creatures, but then transforming into Planeswalkers just like the MTG set Magic: Origins. These types of cards would be double-sided, which makes things more interesting.
NOTE: To clarify a bit, a Planeswalker is a mythical being who can traverse the planes of the multiverse of Magic: The gathering. In game, they often have abilities that can completely turn the tide of battle.
On average a planeswalker has something called Loyalty Points, which can be increased or decreased to activate abilities and such. if a planeswalker's loyalty points become reduced to 0, the go to the graveyard. Creatures can attack Planeswalkers directly like players, and they can be dealt damage by spells.
Disclaimer: I'm going to be using quite a few terms that probably only MTG players will know, just a warning :P
