User blog:TheThinur/Comell, The Spell Theif

​ ​Comell, the Spell Theif is a custom champion concept for League of Legends.

Concept
Comell is a melee champion, who entirely relies entirely on whatever his enemy picks. Taking inspiration from Sylas ult stealing, Comell steals basic abilities from his enemy, though with a unique twist, as he only steals 1 spell from each enemy, up to 3, and only unique to that slot. So Q can only be replaced with abilities normally mapped to Q.

Knowledge and creativity is key to playing Comell, whether it's coupling Anivia's Wall with Ornn's Knockup, Sion W and Mundo E or making up a item build on the spot which fits the kit.

Name, ability names and title is definitely not final and currently no story.

Countering Comell
Champions that rely on their passives or ultimates are usually the best, as their power isn't entirely in their abilities. Xerath's abilities will leave Comell's manapool Dry, Viktor's abilities will never upgrade, Malphite's kit relies heavily on his ult, Brand abilities will not burn enemies (Q stun should still be possible with Comell's ult), etc.

Expected Problems
His ultimate ability might be overpowered, as he can take up any role the enemy allows him, so any burst ability is double power, fx. Morgana Q + Xerath E doesn't sound like fun, though what is the chances of that combo being available.

Varied teamcomps are definitely the counter to Comell.

Another problem might be, if he selects the wrong ability by mistake, he'll need a quick way to fix that, maybe with ult pre 6 allows him to change up his abilities once or twice. To counter him ignoring his ult and being endlessly fluid the whole game.

Author notes
This is my first post, I made sure to have a full kit and stats, I hope I hold up to the standards set. I'd love to hear any ideas on how to balance him, and take into account abilities, which rely more heavily on the Passive, that you at least get a "mini version" like Brand Q for stun or Caitlyn W/E for increased basic attack range.

I hope any of you readers enjoyed the concept.
