[Champion Concept] Kairi, Twilight's Return

You're probably either thinking: "Twilight? NO GET IT OFF IT BURNS AAAAGH!" or "I LOVE BELLA AND EDWARD AND JACOB AND I WANT TO LIVE IN THE TWILIGHT UNIVERSE AND MAKE VAMPIRE BABIES"

Well, one of you will be relieved, and the other might be disappointed. This twilight has nothing to do with the books/movies we've all come to love or hate. The name Kairi, however, may or may not be borrowed from a certain video game.

Without further ado, I present Kairi, Twilight's Return:

Kairi's kit revolves around helping her allies evade damage by reducing enemies' chances of actually hitting them.

Passive: Half-Light (Global Passive)

  • Enemies' vision radius is reduced by (2/3 Kairi's level)%
  • at level 18 this is 12%

Q: Flicker

  • (Passive) Any champion within a certain range, while stealthed, may click on Kairi to dash to her, where they will be immediately unstealthed. This includes Teemo, Evelynn, Shaco, Rengar, Kha'Zix, Twitch, Vayne, Wukong, and Akali.

  • (Active) Kairi grants invisibility to herself or an allied champion for (0.02AP) seconds or until their next spell or basic attack. Allies stealthed in this way may take advantage of Flicker's passive.

W: New Day / Day's End

  • On allied cast (New Day), Kairi invigorates her target, granting bonus movement speed and HP regeneration for the duration.
  • On enemy cast (Day's End), Kairi exhausts her target, reducing their movement speed and HP regeneration.

EDITED VERSION OF DAWN/DUSK

E: Dawn/Dusk (Toggle)

  • Kairi can swap between Dawn (default) and Dusk.
  • On swapping, nearby enemies facing either East (Dawn, right side of the map) or West (Dusk, left side of the map) take initial magic damage from the sun's glare, and from then on are semi-blinded, missing every (18/16/14/12/10)th shot while facing that direction.

R: Twilight Zone (Toggle)

  • Upon activation, an area around Kairi becomes the Twilight Zone. Nearby allies gain a random buff while in this zone, while enemies get a random debuff. This buff or debuff is different for each champion in the Twilight Zone, and the buff/debuffs last as long as Kairi keeps Twilight Zone active.
  • Buffs include:
  • bonus movement speed
  • bonus armor penetration
  • bonus magic penetration
  • bonus armor
  • bonus magic resist
  • Debuffs include:
  • reduced movement speed
  • grievous wounds
  • silence (similar to Viktor's storm)
  • reduced attack speed
  • fear (upon entering, the target flees the Twilight Zone)
  • blind
  • TL/DR: You never know what's going to happen in the Twilight Zone!

Only problem is she looks a little weak (0 dmg). Unless you wanted her to be a support. She has no harass potential though or much cc in comparison to other supports. She needs buffs :P, but great concept, love it! <3

I like the idea of granting a champ stealth, but it seems there would be opness somewhere. It'd have to be limited in a way but it's a good idea to work on. Also I like the idea of the passive .. but the others im not sure on. Something else would be better

I like the idea of her ult and her W, but her W is kind of awkward and unreliable, sort of like the old dodge chance mechanic that Riot removed due to its unreliability. I would make it something else entirely imo. Not really sure what works well with Dawn/Dusk.

Her ultimate is strange at best,It COULD be OP, or it could be completely useless, again it is a question of unreliability that Riot removed or changed hundreds of mechanics for. They dont want the effectiveness of a champ to have anything to do with random chance. Although fan created champs will never make game, id still use the game's basic champion design themes in creation, unless its a joke champ.

Just a suggestion, how about making your flicker, so that you mark a target (ally or enemy) that you or one ally can flicker to. I think that has a better utility for escaping and catching up. It could do a set about of damage if its an enemy. i love your W idea and passive. If you can make E be a damage dealer. E (Sunrise/Sunset): skill shot that blinds the enemy if they are chasing you, and will be stunned if they keep chasing, and slowed if they turn away from you. you can have a timer display on it were it changes from blind to stun/slow, aka dawn to dusk.

And for your R, you can have it available at level 1, and when activated it can double you passive and one ally/enemy in a small radius the random buff.

Just my thoughts, cause i find this really unique. Good luck!

She seems really cool and unique! As a support main, I would definitely use her. However, a large problem is that she has no form of damage. She should at least have one! I would suggest changing E's effect into a passive, and an active being some kind of damage. (Maybe depending on the side of the map again?) Otherwise, good work!
