the concept is wat i like. Although stats and effects will have to change i think.
maybe somethin like ... when uproot is active, anyone with brambles on them, recieves 30% less dmg to their shields.
this just gave me a thought for compost also to synergise with brambles.
compost I, II - when brambles is cast on an ally, for 8 secs after that, they recieve 10/15% less dmg.
compost III - when brambles is cast on an ally, for 6 secs after that, they recieve 30% less dmg.
WHY?
this would be a good counter for team spikes on you. instead of spamming it at late levels, it would require timing to survive late level spiking. I dont think it would be overpowered as it requires preparation for this to be very effective (time it takes to build up compost).
This could be a unique trait for Qot.
