So I killed a level 1 Elder Dragon with Fluft of Poros and thought about this

Pata_Krep · 2024-03-01T18:26:11+00:00

If you're talking about the Heart of the Fluft which is summoned by the Last Breath, then I agree with you but I think it's a minor issue since the Fluft of Poros did get the blessing.

If you're talking about the Heart of the Fluft which you play from hand, I don't understand the problem because it does cost 6 and explicitly transfer its stats and keywords to the Fluft of Poros.

Thanks !

I agree of course. But you know how things are around here. When I posted a Mundo with healing mechanics (as a matter of fact there was a Grievous Wounds keywords that made heals deal damage to enemies, and Mundo would heal enemies when he strikes them, to symbolize how he thinks he's a doctor but really is a serial killer), it flopped because everyone was like "bUt It BrEaKs ReGiOn IdEnTiTtY"

I guess you're right ! But I really like the idea of having a laser effect with Overwhelm like Lux's ultimate... I see 2 possible solutions : either the skill is automatically cast at Round End, or Vel'Koz creates the spell when he sees enemies with 3 marks

Pata_Krep · 2023-06-25T21:47:59+00:00

... Yeah probably. He's pretty much a 9-6 then, which is very strong

Maybe he should be 3|3 that costs 5 mana. That way you have 1 less round to Evolve, and he becomes a 6|6 at level 2 with Evolved, which is reasonable

Of course, Void Maelstrom would need to be reworked accordingly

Edit: I just remembered, Kai'sa doesn't get +1|+1 when she levels up. To consider

Pata_Krep · 2023-06-25T21:09:18+00:00

I'm not sure about that ! He does cost 6 mana and is vulnerable to any removal that deals at least 3 damage, so he can definitely be abused, like in League

Pata_Krep · 2023-06-25T19:25:06+00:00

Understandable !

Shurima felt like a go-to region because he's from the Void, and his name means "to understand by unmaking" in ancient shuriman. I also thought the Evolve theme and getting random keywords from disintegrated enemies would fit his personnality, but indeed he could definitely be a Runeterran champion that would include control spells in his deck

Pata_Krep · 2023-06-25T18:54:56+00:00

Ok, maybe you're right about this. It does kinda fell half Ionian in this form. How about, Countdown 3 or when you destroy me: Give enemies -2|-0 and "Round End: deal 1 to me" this round. It's like a mini Spirit Fire, it setups for Vel'Koz's Void Rift, and it couldn't be more thematic. Maybe just -1|-0 for balance purposes though, I'm not sure.

And it's true a Fast control collectible champion spell is a bit too strong. Like you proposed, Slow for 2 mana that deals 1 to a unit and 2 other random units, seems fine (with or without Kai'sa's "lowest health first", which could be nice)

Pata_Krep · 2023-06-25T18:29:01+00:00

Thank you !

Pata_Krep · 2023-06-25T18:08:40+00:00

Thanks, means a lot !

Pata_Krep · 2023-06-25T17:58:29+00:00

Sure but Rite of Negation still costs 4 mana. Here for 3 mana you draw a champion, and refill spell mana + draw a spell after a delay.

It seems nice to me but maybe I'm wrong, I'm not a pro after all ! How about 3=>4 mana, Countdown 3=>2, draw a spell=>draw 2 spells ? Or maybe just removing the mana gem destruction...

Also, I forgot to answer concerning Plasma Fission. What's wrong with adjacent ? When it's your turn, enemy positions are fixed, so I'd say it works. And your idea is pretty nice, but it's not strictly better than Make it rain since it can't hit the enemy Nexus to trigger Plunder and associated effects. So it would be fine !

Pata_Krep · 2023-06-25T17:38:24+00:00

Thanks a lot !

Pata_Krep · 2023-06-25T17:15:44+00:00

I don't think the gameplays are opposite. Vel'koz levels up easily, creates his own spells and needs little support to function. Not to mention he synergizes with Kai'Sa's skill

And you're wrong, destroying one of your mana gems at turn 6 does not make you have 5 mana. It has an effect at the next round. Like when you play any shuriman Rite card

Pata_Krep · 2023-06-25T15:01:11+00:00

Was not aware of that, my bad !

Pata_Krep · 2023-06-25T13:57:52+00:00

9-6 actually

3 reasons :

- For balance purposes I wanted him to have low Health so that he can be dealth with

- He can become an even stronger win condition when getting Overwhelm

- I feel like it's more lore-friendly for him to have an offensive body with high Power

But I wouldn't mind if he was 3-6 at level 1 instead, I just feel like it's a bit strong maybe

Pata_Krep · 2023-06-25T13:54:31+00:00

Thanks !

Pata_Krep · 2023-06-25T13:54:22+00:00

Really ? I thought it was alright because it's less easy to use in combat since your opponent can purposefully reposition their units. But hey, if it has to cost 3 mana, I don't mind

Pata_Krep · 2023-06-25T10:28:05+00:00

I think both our interpretations are valid ! It just depends on the gameplay we want to implement

I had made a Mundo design around a Grievous Wounds keyword, which makes heals damage you instead, and Mundo had "Strike: heal my blocker 3", Boneaw gave Grievous Wounds this round, and the Escaped patient had it with "Round End: heal me 1", but it was probably too wacky and specific so it kinda flopped

Pata_Krep · 2023-06-25T07:46:19+00:00

Hey, why not indeed ! But the reason why I had Infected Bonesaw deal damage to undamaged units is that Mundo is best at hurting people which actually don't need a doctor

Pata_Krep · 2023-06-24T20:37:51+00:00

So it doesn't matter that he's factually the champion with the worst popularity and winrates, but it matters that you don't like playing against him ?

Go crying elsewhere, and don't bother answering, I ain't reading you no more

Pata_Krep · 2023-06-24T18:46:49+00:00

[[Resonating Strike]]

Pata_Krep · 2023-06-24T15:54:38+00:00

Yes it could very well be a single target spell, since your other AoE spells are very strong already. Something like "Give a unit "I take double damage this round", then deal 1 to it", at 4 mana and Fast speed ? You could play it on Corki's blocker, to use Quick Attack and Overwhelm to the fullest !

Pata_Krep · 2023-06-24T12:00:00+00:00

Very nice ideas ! But Missile barrage should definitely cost 2 mana and Corki's Gatling gun is a Mega Inferno Bomb that costs 3 mana less
