New Female Yordle IDEA ~ PLEASE READ

This morning when I was walking my dog I got this crazy idea that I really love. You know in Pokemon there is ditto who whenever is in battle copies the opponents appearance and moves. Well wouldn't that be cool to see on the Rift? I was thinking of a champion like this. Her name would be Xeronia (Xerox meaning copy, nia would add a feminine feel to it) she would have long hair covered by a hood, a mage robe, gloves, and sandals to complete the mage feel. She would have mirror eyes, literally mirrors because she copies what she sees. Think of Skyrim Female Mages Next her Abilities

Xeronia is a Ranged Hybrid

Q: Stat Switch (more creative name is being thought of)

Her Q is a skill shot that when it hits an enemy champion it randomly switches the AD/AP/MS/ARM/MR stat for 5 seconds

OR

In the beginning of the game Xeronia can buy 5 different free items that manipulate what stat is changed, these items are similar to Viktors Augments and Hexcore although instead of upgrading them with money they would upgrade by level.

W: Agony Rebound (Working on better names)

Xeronia's W allows her to return any of the damage or any effect that was last used on her to the champion that used that ability. Example: Lulu Whimsy's Xeronia, Xeronia W's and Lulu is Whimsied but for a shorter time period, Example #2: Riven ults Xeronia, Xeronia W's and Returns the damage but only the damage not the Health Missing factor and does less damage (subsequently less damage if its an ultimate)

E: Pain Split (like the pokemon move)

Her E literally splits the pain between her and her target. Example: Xeronia has 3000 max health she is at 500 health, to get to half she needs 1000 health so she E's lets say a nasus and brings him to half of his health while Xeronia also gains health so she is at half as well . This may seem OP but the amount of health she takes on the ENEMY is based on their armor/magic resist ((Xeronias type of Damage is also dependent on her items (Augment like items) in the beginning)). So Xeronia brings enemies to half health and she gets to half health (can only be used if she is at half health)

R: Transform

Xeronia transforms into her target and gains all of their abilities. Even if the champion has no costs for abilities or energy, Xeronia uses mana for all of the new abilities.

Cooldowns and Timers and other specialties will be added soon

Thanks! Hope she can one day become a champion!

Her E seems kind of spammable. I like the item idea though.

Im sorry mate BUT whenever anyone thinks of YORDLE they think of Teemo. Hes bad enough, i hate to say it even WITH a great idea but i dont think we need more of Teemo or WORSE running around on the rift

I really like the idea of making a champion that can transform into others. The mana costs might have to changed depending on the champion she turns into which is a lot of work. I picture her as more of a mage (pretty in a rugid way) and less of a yordle. I think she would be viable in any lane, even an adc.

I was wondering, does she gain the other champion's stats when she ults them? Does her AA animation change? Does she become the other champion in their current state or a fresh version of them? Does her ult affect the champion she targeted?

I will post more when I get the time! Good job so far though.

Cool concept: Here's what I'm imagining. Regular adventurer's clothes, fitted tunic, belts for potions, rucksack, and the like. But she wears a red riding hood style cloak that drapes over her shoulders but doesn't restrict movement. The hood goes down over her eyes to conceal her mirrored eyes to the lay person, but she always has a big, ear the ear toothy smile. Her movements are quick and sporadic, until she reveals her trueself, the mirror mage who forces her opposition to look into the recesses of their own souls.

Abilities :

Passive- seems like the champion item would fit there. Something that can level up like Rengar's but less tied to kills but in connecting with her skill shots. (e.g., hit with Q 5 times, do X, hit with Q 15 times, do X and Y). Also, trinket slot the item and hook a sight type item to it.

Q: Does it switch all of them? Just two, which two? imagine swapping the enemy MS and AP early game. All of a sudden, you're up against a 350 AP mage that you just forced yourself to get in range of. If it's going to switch things, then perhaps it should do it equitably. That is, AP <> AD and MR <> Armor and leave MS alone. Net result of the attack is this though: less damage/less defense.

W: Probably the coolest concept for an ability. What if it were a spell shield that straight up negates the effect and then stores it for her next W activation?

E: It seems like a drain life ability with wonky numbers attached to it. Perhaps something like this: Next successful melee attack doubles all damage dealt to target in the last 1.5 seconds (includes her melee attack and all damage from all sources-- i.e., other champs).

R: What if both players changed? Character models change, but gear stays the same. However, in the confusion, because their champ now looks like you, it can be effected by enemy attacks.

Imagine this: Xeronia and Miss Fortune get ambushed by Jarvan and Zyra. J4 ults, MF, Xeronia ults J4, Zyra ults everyone. Everyone gets knocked up/takes damage from Zyra including her friendly J4 who then looks like Xeronia.
