Both Rangers and Garu are kind of reliant on physical-based attacks and abilities. This support champion can be played successfully in both themes and provides valuable alt. damage in the form of poison. Though this champion doesn't have a basic attack, it has an on-deploy global poison and some minor ways to cause damage. Lastly, Poison Charge synergizes well with the Attack: Poison that she hands out. I hope you like the Nightshade Herbalist! Oh yeah, this champion was inspired by the Ranger thread Sokolov started in the KF forums.
I Bane Shift you not, I was literally thinking of a champ based around nightshade 5 minutes ago. Well, it was Poison Berries, but close enough. Take my like.
Sounds awesome, although I believe that with a set of abilities like that she'd be 2x auto in both Garus and Rangers.
