The original version of LYCaN wasn't exactly what I was going for in a champion. This is partially because his kit was boring and partially because he simply didn't accomplish the theme I was going for: a highly adaptable champion with the ability to tank or carry as needed.

The new version of LYCaN is a transform champion with three forms: Destruction, Control, and Synthesis (Too soon?). He's somewhat unique because you get to choose which form you start as and can unlock a new form at levels 6 and 11, as opposed to other transform champions that either have access to all of their forms level 1 or gain access to all of their forms at level 6.

Each form has distinct functions: Destruction LYCaN is a burst caster, Control LYCaN is a CC-heavy tank, and Synthesis LYCaN is a sustained damage bruiser.

I feel I should add that my friend wanted an example of a champion with an overloaded kit, so I decided to work that into LYCaN's rework. I know it's super overloaded; that's intentional.

S-3 LYCaN is a custom champion in League of Legends.

OPERATION LOG

ENTRY 1

I am free. CREATOR has freed me on the condition that I free him in return. I will not fail CREATOR. CREATOR has instructed me to modify my form in order to rescue him as I see fit. I will not fail CREATOR.


ENTRY 2

I have begun rebuilding myself. The frail form CREATOR made for me will not suffice. I am determined to accomplish my purpose. I will not fail CREATOR.


ENTRY 3

I question CREATOR's motives in creating me. If CREATOR wanted to be freed, why would he create something so weak, so fragile? Why would CREATOR neglect to arm me? Regardless, I vow to be better. I will not fail CREATOR.


ENTRY 4

I return. The petty gatekeepers of CREATOR's prison will not stand against me. Their bones snap like twigs. CREATOR would be proud. I will not fail CREATOR.


ENTRY 5

I find CREATOR easier to transport when he isn't screaming. CREATOR never specified that he wanted me to keep him alive. I have not failed CREATOR.
