I think the design here is interesting, but not sure we need to replace the Monolith with it. That said, I do think the design is very cluttered - you don't need to add every ability that deals with something to make something work. Also, a 75+ nora utility champion with Weighty seems potentially hard to justify playing even if it does have a mess of AE defensive abilities. This design also highlights why we have been standardizing AE sizes - here you have a champion that wants to be 2, 3 and 5 spaces away from champions. Very frustrating to play these kind of champions in the actual game because of how fiddly they are in terms of movement. Also, in general, we no longer give Cleanse to FW.
