Could be like a tank roots himself, gaining a massive boost to both resistances and giving and aura of high defense to all allies around him. Allow him to still cast spells in it (barring movement displacing) and there you go.


Now make it so when Malphite ults him, the game crashes.

well technically it most likely doesn't exist because it can easily be used to troll the allied team


imagine an argument breaking out, and then the team needs to retreat, a immovable tank would really hurt that retreat pretty hard, and possibly force an ace


this is the reason gangplanks deny was removed, trolls used to build "troll plank" and he would deny mushrooms, shaco clones, anything disposable

Anivia wall.
That's why I still play her.

I don't see how an immovable ally forces you to not retreat. If he chooses to sit there without retreating with you, leave him. Make the ult turn off fairly quickly, maybe with a speed boost like Xerath.

If someone gets hit with a ranged stun while your team is retreating, you don't stick around for the ace, you trade 4 lives for their death.

In fact, this would be a lot like Locus of Power. Except provide a defense boost instead of an offensive one.

bro your not understanding what i'm saying


two ppl (one of them being the guy with the skill) are arguing


then they go to "teamfight"


then the pissed dude, INTENTIONALLY grounds himself IN THE MIDDLE of the most convenient escape. thus the troll move has been acomplished and the guy gets to watch his team, (who he is angry with) die in a teamfight


i'm not saying the skill will end teamfights, i'm saying IT CAN be used to troll the allied team

see this video for more examples

This isn't an 'Anivia wall' style skill. It's a Locus of Power style skill. He doesn't block, he buffs defense.

I haven't seen a thread complaining about troll mundo, volibear, or nautalis standing in escape routes to block passage because it doesn't happen.

i'm not saying the skill will end teamfights, i'm saying IT CAN be used to troll the allied team

I'm not saying he becomes an impassable wall. He'd be just as blocking as Mundo who decides to not move. Aka not a problem really anywhere.

This isn't Aniva's Wall, this is a defensive Xerath's Locus of Power.

I have never seen a thread about Mundo, Volibear, Nautilus, or any other big model being a troll by blocking escape routes. Because it doesn't happen like that.

dude, the skill your proposing would make certain pass throughs impossible. i dont care enough to upload a map of SR to show you which points are small enough to be blocked but I promise you that there are a good couple points that this hero could completely disable/

obstruct just enough to ruin a retreat


your looking way to into it.


i'm not saying your idea is bad, or the skill sux, i'm saying they haven't made it into the game FOR a reason


i wouldnt' doubt early on they had 10 champs designed with this skill and decided not to use them for this reason

Actually, Denyplank was removed because he was one of the most toxic and inactive lanes to ever exist in our game. He always won by virtue of simply outleveling you no matter what you did.

Not being able to Raise Morale Tibbers is just a happy coincidence.
