We Need More Troll(race, not play-style) Champions

Basicaly we have only TrundleTrundle as Troll Champion. Well there is theory that JaxJax is a sand troll, but let's stay at Freljordian Trolls). In my opinion we need more Troll champions to discover/improve their culture and Trundle's lore. I saw in the internet few cool images and I have 2 concepts.

  1. Troll Hunter/Javelin Thrower as ADC. We kinda have a SivirSivir , DravenDraven , GnarGnar , NidaleeNidalee and KalistaKalista as a "throwers". Considering that Ice Trolls looks like "neanderthals", then we can assume that they are hunting community. Javelins are great example of primitive hunting weapon, which can work pretty good in combination with thier brute strength.

  2. Troll Shaman. We don't know much about freljordian magic(expect Lissandra's powersLissandra , true ice artifactsAshe , Spirit WalkersUdyr , YetisNunu and Demi-GodsOrnn Anivia Volibear ). It would be a cool idea to add to a game a support/mage, which would be focused on curses, herbalism or totems. Well, we have UdyrUdyr , but we still need a real shaman. Usually mages in fantastic-primitive races are priests, and religion is a very important part of culture. And possibilities to create old, wise troll spirit-leader might be an awesome addition to a game.

What's your thoughts on that topic? I know that it might be a slefish request, cause I'm a fan of brute, primitive races in fantasy and I'm lore geek, so I would love to know more about Trundle and his people. Also I would love to play that kind of champs. Maybe you have different ideas?

I just want more trundle lore to be honest. I guess a shaman would be cool

Overall the problem I see with your suggestions is that they mostly feel like troll-versions of stuff that we already have in the game.

Like you said, there are already Nidalee and Kalista as spear throwers, so why would we need another one?

And honestly I'd wait for Udyrs rework before doing a shaman-character.

That being said I'd actually like a small troll child as a character(or just a midget) that feels more like a goblin than a troll.

I would prefer a troll hunter to use a slingshot.
