User blog comment:Drokzen/Mortar team champion idea/@comment-5695639-20130330062245

Okay. I commend you for your creative ability, however... This wouldn't work properly.

Two people working as one is an interesting concept, and could possibly work in some way (Quinn, more-or-less, is a good example). My disagreement to this however stands towars the attack range, and abilities. I haven't played WC3 in a good while, so I can't think too far back on how the Mortar Team plays in that game, but if something in the form of a mortar-based champion kinda sounds like both Kog'Maw, and Xerath (by that, I mean if the ultimate was more of a concept of using a Mortar Strike and bombing the place). Even with a devastatingly low Attack Speed from the start, if fed one could easily reposition the necessary ATK SPD for the role (I assume this is a ADC Champion). On top of that, in team fights, this champion would literally just need to stay out of the entire fight to kill everyone. Early game would be horrible, especially if solo laning because beefier, or even faster champs would do work in a short amount of time. See, the way these kinds of games work is that in a competitive aspect, everything has to have some sort of balance, both for themselves, and against other players. While all it takes is proper positioning and skill, champions still need to play on fair ground or else reworks and rebalances need to be in place.

I am by no means saying this is a bad champion idea, and by fair it's one of the few I actually take seriously on this site (There are A LOT of OP champions for the sake of the 'God Complex'), so I', just throwing my views on what should be taken into consideration. I hope you view this as constructive criticism, and/or as a suggestion for what's to come. I look forward to any updates. :)
