New Champions Idea: Captain Firehead

FireTank20··1 votes·617 views

I haven't played League for very long, but I noticed that other than Miss Fortune, there isn't really a real other pirate champion, so I thought of one!

Name: Captain Firehead Looks: He carries a cannon on his left arm and holds a sword on his right. He's human. He's kinda unique cause of the fact that all auto attacks are from his sword but all abilities come from his cannon. Abilities: [Q] AHOY, MATEY! - Using his cannon, Firehead lobs a cannonball,dealing (x) damage to target. Deals reduced damage to enemies around it. (Splash damage) [W] AVAST! - Firehead fires a cannonball, dealing (x) damage to all targets in its path. (basically a piercing shot) [E] WALK THE PLANK! - Throws a treasure chest at target, dealing low damage, stunning, and blinding them. [R] LAND, HO! - A massive cannonball is fired at the target location, dealing massive damage, igniting, and slowing all enemies within the area. The ignite wears off after the enemy leaves the area, or after 7 seconds.

I'm building him to be a big ol damage dealer, but can take a number of hits as well. Again, I haven't played league very long so the description might be a bit flawed. So let me know if I have to fix anything!

For what it's worth he and Miss Fortune are the only two pirate champs in the game, but the focus on cannons in this champ seems to overlap a bit too much with Tristana with maybe a bit of Ziggs thrown in.

Yeah the E was inspired from Ziggs, but I can replace it with something with his cutlass.

There might be an issue of clarity that's gonna come up with the fact that each one of his abilities come from his cannon and the fact that they're all "cannon balls," so it'll be hard to differentiate between his abilities when going against him as an enemy or an ally, such as Q and W, how does Q travel?

Is it in a line like Avast? If so, then make those visually different, and/or you can make the two abilities different from each other as at the moment they might be too similar? ( One stuns and one pierces...uh).

Otherwise, I appreciate your idea of bringing a cannoneer to League.

I have a plan to change the E, so the stun for the Q wouldn't really be necessary, but I'm a bit reluctant to change it since it would make him really annoying to play against.

Edited him!
