Roidell http://i.imgur.com/fRd10qM.jpg


Roidell - a renegade lad who engages at the forefront with cutting edge combos

This idea is just a concept and free to use and changes made is necessary if it means we can get this guy in League of Legends, be it spiritually or not.

  • The name Roidell is just a placeholder name because I can't think of any good names and Roidell is a name I use in MMOs.
  • I've never made stats before, so if any changes is arguable, please inform me.
  • If you can ignore the VERY top image, that's because I linked it and I didn't know you can't edit it. :^(
  • Credit to all the pictures are on the bottom

This gleaming young man from Zaun was faced with a haunting past, until the day came were he could fight the injustice that once faced him.

Roidell is a hard-hitting melee fighter, whose unique kit consists of two resources that allow for dealing destructive damage to any early game team fights whilst being recklessly unforgiving for also picking off all enemy foes alike. If played with precision, Roidell can initiate mostly any fights because of his constant short cooldowns on his combos that allow him to bring his foes down.


A little background, I've always had an imagination for making character over the years and I never had the skills or talent to make my dreams a reality, but the project I'm doing now, I've never felt so compelled to do so when I had this idea. I'm going to try my hardest to keep this guy alive as long as possible and hopefully, just hopefully, I can get this guy into League.

Thank you, Summoners. It really means a lot just for anyone reading this


[Abilities] Passive: http://hydra-media.cursecdn.com/vindictus.gamepedia.com/4/4a/Active-_Six_Shooter_%28Skill%29.png?version=6887007524d7507717de65650de59257 http://i.imgur.com/4AtPYpl.png [Reload/ThirdStrike]

  • Once Roidell has run out of bullets, he has two options:
  • Roidell if Level 6, can activate his "R Execution Roulette" within 4 seconds.
  • Roidell has to wait 4 seconds for Reload Passive

Q: http://hydra-media.cursecdn.com/vindictus.gamepedia.com/f/f2/Biting_Cold_%28Skill%29.png? http://hydra-media.cursecdn.com/vindictus.gamepedia.com/d/d7/Kick_%28Skill%29.png [Recoil Kickback]

  • Roidell hits all enemies in a cone ahead of him.

  • Roidell can use Recoil Kickback three times before going on cooldown.

  • If Roidell doesn't keeping using a Q in his 1-3 Q combo, it will go on cooldown after 3 seconds.

Roidell kicks with his Revolver Leg, firing a skillshot in a straight line from his heel.

  • It can go through minions doing damage, but the skillshot stops if it hits an enemy champion or big neutral monster.
  • Can be used once before going on cooldown, same rules.
  • If Roidell is on his third Bullet his W transforms into a Third Strike W.
  • A Third Strike W gives an extra small AoE explosion at the end of the skillshot and additional damage

Roidell fires a hookshot wire (pull) from his right hand.

  • The hookshot wire can go through walls and can only grab enemy champions or large monsters in the jungle
    • If pulling an enemy champion, the enemy champion will not go through a wall > - If pulling towards an ally, Roidell will not go through a wall
  • If Roidell hits an enemy with his hookshot, Roidell can pull the enemy.
  • When Roidell lands a grab, it will do no damage and no CC is applied until you press E again to pull dealing CC and magic damage. ~~ - If Roidell hits an ally instead, he can pull himself towards the ally.~~
  • In the pulling animation, he can also use his Q or R.
    • Once hooked the E's icon tints red if an enemy, but green if its an ally.
  • Roidell can use his Q or R, in the middle of the E's pull animation

R: http://hydra-media.cursecdn.com/vindictus.gamepedia.com/2/23/SP-_Hulking_Fury_%28Skill%29.png [Bullshot]

Roidell has a loaded Bullshot bullet in his Revolver Leg. Roidell than fires it on the ground using the recoil to ballista himself into an enemy doing damage.

  • Roidell plants his Revolver Leg's heel in the ground and he gets in a running pose and than fires a Bullshot Bullet at the ground, anyone nearby takes magic damage, after firing Roidell is launched through charging at the enemy doing Knock up and Physical Damage to anyone he hits.
  • After firing Reload Passive refreshes instantly.
  • Bullshot can go through walls, and stops when you hit an enemy champion

Playstyle:

Roidell is a strong fighter that can go top. What you want to do is Q to wave clear early game and use your W to poke to get weaken your enemy. If you poked them down enough, you can initiate with your E and unleash more combos down (If you have the resources) to bring down your foe early game. By late game, you usually want to be the second person initiate with your R or E so you can start picking off enemy champions. You can easily pick-off squishy champions with great mobility. Just remember to follow the right combos.

Basic Combo: E-> Q -> Q -> Third Strike Q

Fully Loaded Combo: W -> E -> Q-> Third Strike Q-> Q -> W -> R

Initiation Combo: (Have R already activated) R -> W-> E -> Q -> Third Strike Q -> Q -> W

Pick-off Combo: (Have R ready) W -> E -> Q-> Third Strike Q -> Q -> W

*Are they past a wall? (Have R ready) E-> R *

Remember to keep 4-6 Bullets ready for combos

Recommended Items:

item 3074 Ravenous Hydra: It give Roidell a bigger edge in wave clearing and pushing.

item 3071 Black Cleaver: The combos Roidell use give him the passive stacks from Black Cleaver.

item 3078 Triforce: After every Q he's bound to have the spellsword activated for some extra damage in between attacks, and somewhat movement speed would help out.

item 3110 Frozen Heart: If Roidell is already stacked with some good damage items, this will make him hard to kill in one versus one situations, plus on the bright side some good ol' cooldown reduction for his skills.


COUNTERS Irelia Irelia: In early trade offs, Irelia can just out damage and CC Roidell constantly.

MonkeyKing Wukong: If Wukong is played correctly, all he has to do is decoy on Roidell's E or R, and then Wukong just unleashes his wombo-king-kongo-combo

Darius Darius: Darius with his early game tankiness can easily out damage a Roidell in lane.


LORE

http://puu.sh/gh6p2/ff44d8865e.jpg

Roidell is a decisive enforcer armed with a Revolver Leg and a metal arm that can fire cablewires.

Roidell, a young man from Zaun who has the urge to fight injustice. When Roidell was young, he and his parents were caught in an attack by crimelords. Roidell lost his parents and his entire right side of his body was destroyed. He was lost and confused, but in the end Roidell knew he had nothing to lose anymore.

After struggling for months end, Roidell met a mentor who offered him a chance, a chance to walk again, and a chance for vengence. Roidell accepted.

The chance gave Roidell a procedurce that was able to not just give him the ability to walk, Roidell could do everything better then before, even fight, but that wasn't all. Roidell could laugh again, he could smile with dignity (a lot of dignity).

As Roidell grew older, he studied weapon engineering, designing and repurposing his mechanical limbs for combat. Now being armed and ready Roidell wanted and bring to justice the most heinous Problematic Criminals of Zaun.

"You're all idiotic buffoons, who decided to rob a bank with only six people. Me? I'm just a handsome, young man with higher standards for criminals I take in." -Roidell to [arrested] Problematic Criminals of Zaun #157-#163 -Written by Roidell

"I turned myself in and returned the stolen equipment after hearing this guy talk for hours on end, he just doesn't shut up. I'm serious, we were about to fight, but then the lights.. Then he.. I just want my mother.. DON'T WRITE THAT!" [arrested] Problematic Criminals of Zaun # 185 -Interviewed and Written by Roidell

"You got 6 seconds to run.. 6- TOUCHDOWN!!" -Roidell to [arrested/injured:broken bones|cause:roidellbullshot] Problematic Criminals of Zaun #213 /notes: Three blocks destroy by.. Roidell -Report written by Roidell :)

Roidell wears/has

  • a blackish industrial jacket over a tank top strapped with utility equipment
  • a earrings on his left ear and eye brow
  • Brownish and white camo pants with lots of utitlity belts attached
  • on his left foot, combat boots that reach near his left thigh.
  • bandages and wrappings cover his left hand.
  • carries "bullets" in his utility straps His right arm is augmented, leaving his biceps to have a wire chamber to hold all the cable wire.
  • The cable wire shoots from his right palm. The Revolver Leg is pretty heavy and durable, the chamber to reload is in his thigh area, and the barrel of the gun is long enough to act as a heel.
  • has metal claws for gripping and slashing ("Q Recoil Kickback")

You can usually imagine him swinging around his hook wire when he's bored.

Likes: Vi (He adores her ways of enforcing justice on criminals, whenever Roidell tries to talk to her, he flusters and ends up being a klutz.) Viktor (Roidell respects Viktor before Viktor went complete bonkers, Viktor was the one who offered to help him, when no one would, but..) Dislikes: Viktor (Viktor now is a bad guy..) Jayce (Roidell just thinks Jayce has a cowardice way of enforcing justice.) Criminals

Remember this is all fan-made so nothing is canon, I'm honestly bad at making stories for anything so its probably understandable if you think this is bad. :^)


Voice: (It would be nice if we had a Zaun-born that had a Irish/Scottish accent.)

*(ANOTHER NOTE: Making quotes for people is going to be funny or cheesy depending on how you look at it.) *

Upon champion select: "Six shots is all that it takes."

Taunt: Roidell draws a line with his Revolver Leg on the ground. "Whateva'ya thinkin, it's not happening" "Don't cross tis line, I have standards for my enemies."

Joke: Roidell points with his arm, his arm malfunctions and falls down, then his hookshot fires and hits his metal toes. "Tis doesn't take much for me to mes- OW OW OW"

  • If Vi is there, he flusters. "I want to tell you how I- OW NEVER MIND!"
  • If Jayce is near. "You're a disgrace to ev- YOU STUPID FOOL!"

Upon activating Executon Roulette: "NOW'S'A NOT THE TIME TO SCREW UP!" "There's no escape for ANYONE!"

Upon a successful Execution Roulette: "NO ONE CAN STOP ME NOW!" "Running won't save you now."

Upon killing an enemy "criminal" champion: "Is that it..? This is boring." "YOU'RE ALL MY STEPPING STONES."

  • If Viktor is defeated: "Next time.. I'll.. be there." "Why did you do it.."

Again, Thank you. I would really like to see this guy in LoL be it spiritually or actually him, this would mean a lot to me. If more people see this it would probably help get this guy seen by the concept team.

P.S Thank you Riot's Support Team and Riot Kateykhaos for tips and your input. I love the Riot Support team no matter who answers they always are your friends.

I used rejected concept arts from games like Anarchy Reigns and Vindictus (Vindictus wasn't rejected, it was just regular concept art). Gifs also used were from youtube. It was only used to give others an idea of what he could be like

For the most part I like the idea- but I suggest revisiting some areas of your work while skimming the whole thing. I wish you luck with your goals bud.

~GL HF and see you on the fields of justice

Zeddicus43/3/2015, 4:42:45 AM2 votes

I definitely like your concept and if I can I'll make a more thorough evaluation later but my knowledge of kits ect is fairly limited as well. The only thing that strikes me right now is I would be terrified to use his ult and chance missing it. If im reading right yes it would refresh bullets and cut cool downs if you miss but alot of times that big power shot is what you need to save yours butt or finish an enemy before they escape and the idea of messing that up would make me very wary of playing him. Other than that he looks great so far!

I like the concept. But I'm not totally sure about the name. IDK it just doesn't sound like the name of a person who's tryna kill you, you know?

ZeroFreakReth3/1/2015, 12:48:23 AM1 votes

I really like you Champion idea and here's some feedback/questions.

Q - Recoil Kickback

  • I feel like the +10 range increase on Third Strike Q won't be significant enough. For reference: Wukong's Q increases his range by 125 & Morde's Q increases his range by 75.
  • Only having 2 seconds between Q casts seems too low. For reference: Riven's Q has 4 seconds between casts (but her's goes on cooldown after the first cast). Since the time is 2 seconds that means that if you are chain CC'ed there is a chance you won't be able to cast it again until it comes off coodlown.

W - Revolver Cannon

  • Why does Third Strike W only get increased damage unlike his Third Strike Q?
  • Maybe allow Third Strike W to go through units or some other small buff.

E - Chain Hookshot

  • If I hit an enemy/ally do I get to re-cast the ability to pull them to me (enemy) or pull myself to them (ally)?
  • I'm not sure how he would knock them up.

R - Execution Roulette

  • Are you rooted while this is happening? If yes then I like the slowing down of the roulette, if not then making the roulette slow down might make it too easy since you can continue chasing the target while you pick from the roulette.

ART CONFIRMED. (IDK HOW ITS GONNA TURN OUT!!)

Geasich3/3/2015, 1:05:39 AM1 votes

I would really enjoy this champion because I could see him being useful in a lot of situations but his hook shot I think he should be able to go to a ally if he lands it cause he doesn't really have a escape tool in areas like the jungle but overall I think he'd be a very good contribution to the champion pool good job hope to see more of this (:
