I think theres a big problem if you have a +25% tenacity boost per kill. Like, the 25% already is incredibly powerful and can only be beaten by Irelias passive. However in just two kills Reux would pass Irelia in tenacity, and getting max stacks (10) would mean 250% tenacity bonus? Which would mean absolutely no form of CC works on them, regardless of the champions abilities or scaling, Reux would be the most overpowered champion in league of legends history, just with his passive. Not counting the rest of the character design. (You may have meant that she had maximum tenacity bonus of 25%, but such a small thing left out is a big loophole and lead me to discredit and view the rest of the article in a poor light, please review and clarify if it was a mistake, and if it wasnt, well, I guess thats what forum reviewers are for.

There is no clear focus as to what idea the character represents, as well as the terms fighter and assassin contradict themself, as a fighter is supposed to be a balance of offense and defense whereas an assassin is supposed to have very little defense and humongous offense (which in itself is contradicted by his passive which gives him HUGE defensive boosts) Seeing however that your recommended items are mostly defensive I can assume you meant for the champion to be a fighter over assassin, meaning changes to his W,E, and probably R are needed. All three abilities either copy another champion or go with the assassin feel of a character.

Try to find the idea and feel of the character that youre trying to capture.

Also, I recommend to stop pursuing the character, his abilities, or dialogue if you cannot tie it in in a non-offensive way (Aimed specifically at his "God is dead!" dialogue, it is fine if you add a name of a fictional deity that Reux is tied to, however the term God with a capital G is tied to multiple religions and has potential to lead to big problems both inside and outside the League Of Legends community.)

As a new player I read all the tooltips and wandered onto this page. tenacity reduces most crowd control effects. 25% is a major buff and if he gets 4 kills this champion would be immune to all cc thrown at him so I think if you remove that buff from his passive. Otherwise, I like the idea but it's kinda confusing to have him have a gun as well as a sword. What if you had him throw his sword instead of that gun. Great Idea but needs a lot of rework so he's not completely OverPowered in this current meta.

His w seems kinda bland, like a fizz e without the dash. You should add something on top of it to give him a more unique feel.
