Suggestion for Taric's Rework

Give him a lance. Jayce has the whole hammer thing down pat, and Poppy probably will too with her rework so why not give Taric something a little more unique? No other champion in the game has a lance and they are pretty knightly just like Taric. A crystal lance would go great with Taric and his diamond shield (if that's still gonna be a thing post-rework).

Also, this is nitpicky, but could you please change Bloodstone Taric's purple to dark, grayish green to better fit the namesake (Lissandra's skin is good on this already so just use her palette for Taric's skin) (Also x2, Please include a Steven Universe reference somewhere in his V.O.!)

I don't know, the hammer is pretty is pretty iconic to Taric, even if it's already used for other champs. :P

Its not like there aren't any champs who use lances/spears JarvanIV XinZhao Hecarim Pantheon Nidalee Kalista (ok Hecarim is actually using a halberd,but that is pretty close to lances anyway) While we don't have a jousting lance using champion,I'd say these things are kinda awkward for a walking champ

I think a hammer is fine,Taric doesn't need a unique weapon,because the gems are the unique thing about him(he doesn't even use the hammer for most of his abilities,only for the initial smash of his ult). I mean just because master yi is our swordmaster or because Darius uses an axe doesn't mean we can't get any other champions with swords or axes ;).
