Game Mode: That Was Unexpected.

So imagine this. Vel'koz is up to his shenanigans and decides he's bored with Summoners Rift and decides to step up his game. So, he does an experiment! He's been inspired but the story of Scion and Urgot, and inventors like Heimerdinger and Viktor and has decided to make abominations of his own! So he lures 10 champions into a Summoners Rift match and BAM! Smacks them with a dismorgrification beam.. At first, he's confused. Nothing seems to have happened.

But moments later, as he's re-calculating his measurements his results he discovers the success was far greater than he could have imagined! It wasn't their bodies that got scrambled, it was their minds!

All the abilities of all the champions got swapped around. Now you have Garen with a Riven Q, Ahri W, Rengar E, and Karthas R.

Some champions would need to be disabled because their abilities just wouldn't work on their own. (i.e. Karma's Matra R wouldn't work with other champions abilties. so whoever gets her R would be unlucky... Unless when Gangplank uses Karmas Mantra the allies with the rest of her abilies receive the mantra effect? Odd... but interesting.)

Anywho just a thought.

TL;DR: All champion abilities are scrambled at the beginning of the match.

I just envisioned a Tristana with Leona Q, Tristana W, Kha'Zix E and Akali R. Ohmigod we've created an uncatchable monster.

Replace Trist with Cait and you've got it.

So, Would each champion have a set ability's or would it be Rolled everytime the champ is picked. Cause i feel like that it add's ALOT of randomness onto the field, what with lets say Vel'koz having riven q, His W, Viktor E and Zilean R. He would be Unstoppable. I dont know, I feel like if you dont get a good char then its just a throwaway game for you and you don't try anymore.

That's a good point.

I figured your abilities would be randomly picked when you load into game, based off the other champions that were selected for that Match. So all the abilities you have, are from the other champions on your team. So even if you have a weak-solo game. You could potentially make incredibly distructive combos. Because imagine a Syndra combo, but coming from 3 different directions. It opens up possibilities for comboing champion abilities, that are usually limited becuase they are anchored to the champion casting them.

Example: Having Zyra's seeds would be weak if you don't have the rest of her abilities. But in a team where the other teammates have the abilities that grow her plants. You're able to run ahead planting seeds in places Zyra wouldn't normally be able to reach if she had been planting them herself.

And even if you were kinda screwed over for 1 game. The game itself would be crazy XD It'd be impossible to build a meta in this scenario so every match would be chaos. Fun, crazy, chaos. I can't really think of an ability combo that wouldn't be useful at some point. Because the rest of the abilities that compliment the ones you have, would be on the field somewhere.

then garen gets sivir's w and the game breaks or some champion winds up with nothing but shields

Animations though

so many animations

In Theory, it would look broken as sin BUT it's not impossible.

I'd imagine the character models are constructed with a standard making most of the skeletons very similar with most of the visual difference between the skinning. If the ability animations remained their natural animations, and just applied over the new champions skeleton. A Garen using Zack W would look awful, but in theory "should" be possible.

But looking awful, would kinda make it that much more fun. To laugh at all the stuff.
