Thank you for the review. I believe what you mean by "stacking" would be similar to how Rengar gains additional effects to his abilities if his Ferocity meter is full, just in Ulma's case of an ally being under 50% max health? That seems like a more consistent ideal, considering he could easily lock himself out an ability he really would've wanted otherwise if an ally is above or below the criteria with the current system. If that is the case, I'm still trying to figure how both aspects of his kit (as the supportive brother or raging avenger) could intertwine. I could easily make his Q have an empowered effect of knocking enemies aside instead of being a "new" knockback and keep his interrupt. His "new" W passive can be placed somewhere else, and the regular W can be kept as is with a new empowered effect (perhaps a buff to AD or AP, or make the existing mana restoration the empowered effect instead?). His E and ult is where it gets weird, as both of their alternating abilities are so vastly different. For his E, I like the trail idea that I got from Elixer of Iron and Galio that I combined with Kog'Maw's E, but the empowered aura idea is nice. Perhaps I could make the E grant him an aura that slow enemies that run away from him and speed allies running to him, and the empowered effect adds the armor debuff? For his ult, I'm conflicted. The stronger single-target Bond of Stone would be very potent on a tanky support such as him, but the massive AoE damage and initial stun on his ult make him a threat in teamfights worthy of being concentrated or peeled. I don't want to make his regular ult like a stronger Bond of Stone and working with everyone around him, as that feels like a cop-out, but then I'd have to scrap his "new" ultimate to keep the Bond of Stone one with stronger effects when empowered. I'm honestly torn about the last ability.

Also, thank you for constantly being supportive but critical in my champion concepts. I do this solely because I like to, and finding honest but fair criticims is exactly what I wanted to help me improve. I like the "big brother" thing personally, as I was always one for people around me, and no other champion save Braum even comes close to that kind of vibe, so I figured I could try my hand at it.

Also again, I didn't include quotes with every champion (god that took forever to do). I learned from last time.
