Hey, for some reasons my comments are turned off so I decided to write this here.

Thank you for taking the time to look at my champion concept. It's hard to find criticism past the first two days of a concept being posted, so anything I can get is appreciated.

I just wanted to point out that you made a small error regarding Jorgen. The 16 second cooldown is for summoning him since Jorgen is a permanent summon. After Jorgen is summoned the Q transforms into "Command: Jorgen" which has its own 7 second cooldown, down to 3.85 seconds at 45% CDR to repair or reposition him, which I think is pretty reasonable.

I added the missing details you mentioned.

The lore has always been my weaker side. I'm good at coming up with gameplay mechanics and numbers, but god knows writing is one of my weaker skills in life. Honestly, a big part of why I even wrote a lore is because I wanted to enter Beatrix in the CCOS.

Lastly, as far as Beatrix's own passive playstyle and lack of tankiness, think of it this way: Yes, her own active skills are very passive, but it's not like Beatrix herself is passive. There is a constant push and pull going on with her Scrap bar because it is both a resource and a power source, so between keeping Jorgen repaired (he takes 110-130% AoE damage after all), restocking drones,readying your ult and keeping up the Scrap bar for ratios, there is a lot you need to manage as a player. Also, Beatrix has two distinctive battling phases - with robots which is her cooperative phase and without robots which is when she picks up their cores and becomes a true menace. To be fair, just because a skill description says "cast on ally" doesn't mean she can't cast the skill on herself. If you decide to have Jorgen protect you instead of an ally, as a tank you're going to be a pretty major threat because you basically take 30% reduced damage while Jorgen is on you, and if you have drone cores loaded that makes you all the more dangerous. I had to make Beatrix's major CC unreliable because she already has so many reliable tools in her damage mitigation, healing and peeling with drones stun. Jorgen doesn't provide as much protection as a shield, true, but that's because he is a permanent summon, so he has to be weaker and that gets compensated using Carlotta's healing, especially if an ally is at low health. Obviously Beatrix is not perfect, far from it, but I like where she stands right now in terms of her gameplay. I believe I've polished hers enough to the point where now it's a matter of opinion and not a matter of balance anymore.

Regardless, thank you again for the time you took to review my concept.
