I was on the same boat as YST - "If he's trash I'm going to be so annoyed" He looks so good. After watching the vid (which I appreciate) I'm not excited to get him anymore. Thanks Plarium... Thanks for the don't look up buff strippers on Google. Hah!
This champs artwork looked so good! And I love flails as a different weapon in games. Too bad his damage is pathetic. Showcasing video for Plarium to buff him before release...
His use is as a support and mischief tank, not as a damage dealer. The fact that he puts up Increase RES along with his taunt makes him very useful in hydra to keep the taunt from being stolen, and his passive counterattack will keep him healed up throughout the fight (granted he's not a major damage dealer, but the heals do add up). I think in the long term people are going to find a lot of good uses for his kit (yeah, yeah, "X champion does the same thing...just call upon your vast roster of Void leggo and mythical champions to find champs who can do it better, so this guy is useless, etc., etc., etc.").
I wasn't even trying to pull anything specific, just pulling for the summon rush, and got this guy in 40 shards. Looks awesome, but not sure where to use him.
