I think all Darkin should be health casters, especially Aatrox, as a risk/reward for insane omnivamp. Their whole thing is absorbing new flesh to contain their semi-divine essence. Using their full power should be taxing!

Oh, I know these champs! I played Renekton a few days ago and the enemy Jayce always took my health to use his Q. That's such a weird mechanic if you ask me, and he always makes my screen gray, like wtf? Is he hacking?

You forgot one: sion during his passive, yes, have you ever wondered why sion lasts for so long after his death on URF where health costs are greatly reduced? That is because the damage sion gets after death counts as a health cost which increases on lvl and further every time he takes damage, while he gains 100% of life steal to sustain

I like HP cost champs cuz I can relate since every time I play league I feel like I lose a bit of my health, except I don’t get it back

I think HotS has an interesting take on this: Gul'dan has a mana bar, but he doesn't regen mana naturally and instead has an ability (in place of a passive) that makes him take max health damage to restore a portion of his max mana. I don't know how well this would work in League, but I always found it an interesting take on the class

Using health makes the most sense on Zac and Vlad, more so on Zac. He literally drops parts of himself, then transforms it. His entire champion gimmick is that blob aspect. He physically drops his health and picks it up, perfectly executed gimmick. And on Vlad it’s similar but it’s more like he spends health BECAUSE of his lifesteal, like he has to burn hp to make his high amount of life stealing balanced
