with the soon release of Elementalist Lux i have just gotten an Epiphany.....

a champion whose kit changes due to its gameplay. i mean.

Elementalist Lux can unlock different combinations depending on the first basic elements she unlocks at the start. what if we had a system like that for a champion whose kit really changes after unlocking a combination, instead of just visuals?

of course this would mean a massive shift on balance because we could potentially have a champion that can work just as good for top/jungle/mid/bot in ADC or Support form.

im not talking about a shapeshifter the likes of because you wouldnt be able to change form later. the combinations that you would unlock would be permanent and you wouldnt be able to regress.

you would have to think deeply on your choices since maybe each form unlocks a different set of skills or causes itemization changes. this from a balance standpoint may be hard since we have a champion whose play pattern evolves as the match progresses.

however, its a concept we cant get behind. already has a choice based system for example, but hits kit is predefined since the start of the game, he's an assassin, and the only way he can change his playstyle is by the items alone.

we have yet to see a champion whose gameplay trully evolves as the match advances, a champion that can choose certain features to adjust to the enemy composition and the role it has chosen at the start.

and that's a potential development that is possible now with the release of that new skin, the interface could be potentially the same, just need the adjustments to allow a complete change in habilities after each change.

heck, it could even mean getting a new skill every time you unlocked a form, instead of having all skills at the start but invest points on it.

the possibilities are infinite.

for the potential Rioters watching at this, you have an oportunity there. dont let it loose because of it coming of an ultimate skin...
