I'm starting to feel like new Graves was a prototype for this champion. Or vise versa.

These odd Auto Attack changing concepts are actually pretty cool imo. The first (I think) being Jinx Q, trying to make the autos act like the weapons they are fired from, going into new Graves and such. This particular guy doesn't seem to fit his thematic, like said before, but I think he seems neat. I have enough IP soon, so I'll prolly buy him after IP price drop.

this is where i am with it. There is a thematic for this kit, and there exists a lot of neat little things in this kit. But it doesn't seem to fit the guy who makes things beautiful.


I wonder if he has a relation to the person in all the kindred plays in kindred's lore

As far as gameplay, he seems kind of like a mish-mash of things. I'm waiting for details like ad ratios, cooldowns, etc. He seems like a caster -- like someone who would build Essence Reaver first or second. I'm wondering if he might be good in mid -- kind of like an AD Xerath.

I have a feeling he's very good friends with Shaco or some demon/jester/scary-looking champion. Also, he seems like the perfect mid laner since he has long-long range and he has some nice poke. :D

he basically has a hard coded 25% crit chance from how i understand it. so will he even make good use of essence reaver passive? (although he should still be able to get 30% cdr from the item so i suppose that is irrelevant.

Also, thoughts on triforce since it basically gives him 3 different sets of AD and he should be casting a decent amount.

Well that was disappointing.

His kit can be fun, no doubt, but I don't see how his teaser is relevant to this kit besides the weak flower motif in it. To be fair though, I don't think we saw anyone die in the reveal. Maybe, just maybe, that when enemy units die, they'll spawn a tree or a flower or butterfly smoke or something like in the teaser, as I will be honest, I do feel that it can be hard to implement the teaser into the kit.

Thank you to MissMaw for the signatures!

Yeah they do.
There's a comment by Meddler on NA, enemies spawn trees when they die, which explode and slow others

Basically MOBAFire.

That's not written anywhere in his kit so I'm gonna take this so-called info with a grain of salt.
