Ty for your feedback I think will probaly do these adjustments: - Q: Now possible to cast when moving. Stun replaced with an slow. - E: An switch option that will absorb damage rather than giving it. Additionaly your Q will be able to get through walls with the damage passive but not when you switch to absorb. - R: I will probaly keep the ulti but maybe the effect from E could be doubled during the ulti time.

For the meta I'm now think between jungle or mid.

For roles I was thinking Mage or Mage/Assassin. I don't think Mage/Fighter is possible since his AA is mid range. I believe this didn't stop gankplank to be released but if you look add his kit he actualy has an melee AA.
