Gonna get a lot of hate here, but as someone who played Rammus a ton when I was new to the game since he was so cheap to purchase, I really feel like his kit is downright incomplete. Ball Curl and Taunt feel like two halves of one single ability, especially since 90% of the time you're using both at once, and whenever you aren't you're typically using DBC alone because you're clearing the jungle, I'm struggling to think of a situation where you'd taunt but not curl. I'd say they could be consolidated into just one skill, but that brings up a few level curve issues like having power ball, taunt and curl at level 2 for super strong ganks after just your leash, and having both taunt and curl maxed out by 9.

I'm not calling for a full on rework, in fact I believe the cheap champs should stay simple to help new players learn the game. But Rammus is so bare bones it's restrictive to his decision making and gameplay, which is especially glaring when one of his skills is merely an enhanced state. He is desperately in need of something to diversify his gameplay. Even Annie, who is the level 1 Summoner champ for learning the game, who's gameplay is basically press all your buttons at once when your stun is up, presents more engaging gameplay.
