For those of you that don't know: http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/Omen

Was looking at some of FeralPony's work and stumbled upon this. Thought his design was really cool and inspired me to flesh him out.

Passive

Shadow Sneaker

-For every 50 steps Omen makes while not seen by an enemy Champion he gains Chaos

[Omen utilizes Chaos to output abilities; starting Chaos is 100, he gains 55 per level. With the Blue buff Omen gains Chaos every 35 instead of 50.]

[Q] Silent Pounce

Cost - 50/50/85/105 Chaos

Omen pounces to a target enemy champion or minion/monster and deals 85/100/165/195 + (35% of AD) (10% of AP) after 1.5 seconds Omen turns invisible for 2.5 seconds gaining +15 movement speed for 3 seconds. This ability is an on hit effect any AoE or Lifesteal is triggered.

Cooldown: 18.5/16/10/9.5 seconds

[W] Savage Thorns

Cost - 2% of maximum health + 10/25/60/85 Chaos

Omen launches the spikes from his back at a targeted area. Enemies who step on the spikes receive 50/75/105/145 + (10% of AD) + (100% of AP) over time. Their movement speed is reduced by 20% while on the spikes and after walking past them their movement speed is reduced by 15% for 2 seconds. Omen can use Silent Pounce on his spikes. If Omen makes contact with his spikes they retract to his body and he gains back 5% of his health back and bonus +10% bonus armor for 3 seconds and the cooldown of the ability (Silent Pounce) is reduced by 20%.

Cooldown: 22/17/14/12 seconds

[E] Feral Desires

Cost - None

(Passive)

Omen gains 5%/12%/24%/38% Life Steal. While this ability is not on cooldown Omen cannot be killed by an enemy minion or minor monster. After killing an enemy champion, epic monster or turret Omen uses all his Chaos and this ability is changed to Feral Desires.

[E] Feral Instinct

Cost - (Only active after Omen meets Feral Desires requirements)

Omen can naturally detect enemy wards/trinkets/traps for an additional 8 seconds after their placement. Upon slaying them Omen gains 15 Chaos and a Mark of Desire. After 7 Marks of Desire this ability is on cooldown for 60/45/35/20.5 seconds. Each Mark of Exodus provides Omen with .895 movement speed.

[R] Marks of Deadly Desires

Cost - All Marks of Exodus + 150/205/245/285 Chaos

Omen howls and unleashes his full power. All of Omen's abilities except Feral Instinct/Desire receive a 20% cooldown reduction (applies before cooldown items). In addition based on the amount of Marks of Exodus consumed Omen gains a bonus buff. These buffs are triggered by pressing [R] again.

0 - Omen's skills still retain the 20% cooldown but his ultimate receives a 25% additional cooldown.

1 - Omen can cast his ultimate again to trigger this. Omen gains 20% bonus movement speed and gains a slight range increase to all his abilities.

2 - This ability is changed into a Large Biscuit. Upon use it grants Omen with immediate 200 health and 600 health over time. While consuming the over time effect Omen receives 50% less damage and -20% movement speed.

3 - Omen can cast this ability again to provide bonus global gold to his team. Upon getting an assist or a turret/champion kill this ability goes on cooldown.

4 - Omen's abilities become unusable for 12 seconds. During this time Omen's basic attacks deal true damage.

5 - Omen gains 100% Bonus AD and 100% critical strike for 6 seconds.

6 - Omen gains 35% bonus movement speed and 20% bonus attack speed. Omen is unable to last hit any enemy champions or turrets. Upon hitting a Champion Omen silences them for .5 seconds.

7 - Omen produces a dark mimic of himself. The mimic has 75% of Omen's health. Has the same attack range as Omen and 15% Bonus movement speed. The mimic can be controlled using the Alt Button. Upon attacking an enemy Champion Omen's mimic suppresses the champion (for 2.5 seconds) by pouncing on them. After this the mimic crunches at the enemy Champion dealing 100/235/365 + (125% of Bonus AD) + (50% of AP) and disappears. If the mimic is not within a 450 range the mimic's health slowly decays.

Cooldown - 85/65/45 seconds


Purposes

Omen can be used as a viable jungler who uses assassin techniques to secure kills while sustaining off jungle minions with his E's passive. Omen can also be a very nice top laner using his W to slow enemies and harass and his Q to secure kills. Omen's ultimate gains buffs based on the marks he consumes in addition because of this requirement Omen is a great team player on picking off enemy wards and overall supporting the team. Depending on these marks Omen can heavily contribute to a team fight or be a lone steroid. Using nice tactics Omen can think of when to use his ultimate and potentially change the tide of a team fight.


Other

Thought I would like to go along with Riot into making a more technical champion and this was the outcome. Hope you all enjoy. CnC.

I really appreciate that you want to have Omen in the League, but the reason why Omen was cancelled first and foremost, was because he didn't synchronized well with the league theme.

However, parts of Omen was taken for other Champions like Kha'Zix. Though Morello said that Omen has nothing to do with Kha'Zix, Kha'Zix still has similiarities with Omen. And if you see Ao Shin concept art and then Omen's concept art, you see similiarities too.

I made a post for Omen before and I think the community with people like you can help revive this champion.
