Suggestion for Quinn's New (R) - Make Valor feel more like a champion

So... Quinn is finally getting a rework. I feel that it's very nice that Riot decided to make her the roaming marksman/assassin.

However, based from what I've seen/heard so far, it seems they are removing 2 of Quinn's iconic things: her blind, and melee form Valor.

In my personal opinion, the removal of the blind is not so troubling. She will lose her dueling potential, but at least she gets more burst (other people's opinions differ).

I find that the new (R) is troubling me a lot. If this change goes out, I feel that Valor will just become Quinn's transport animal(?) and occasional passive marker. He will lose his identity as an individual champion, and I don't think that's going to be good. :(

So I decided to propose a few changes to make Valor feel more like an individual champion. Since he pretty much can't attack now, what if he has utility/mobility spells instead?

I believe having spells which are different from Quinn's will make playing him feel like you are playing a deiffernt champion. :)

BEWARE! WHAT YOU ARE ABOUT TO SEE ARE JUST SUGGESTIONS MADE BY AN UNRANKED SCRUB:

(P)Tag Team

  • While Valor is on the field, Harrier is disabled. Valor cannot attack; executing a basic attack will cause Tag Team to end early.
  • Valor gains 70/100/130% total movement speed, but will be slowed when taking damage. Taking champion/turret damage or getting hit by immobilising effects will end Tag Team early.

(Q)Eagle's Eye *scales with ranks in (Q)Aerial Assault Cooldown: 14/13/12/11/10 Mana cost: 50/55/60/65/70 Range: 1100

  • Valor pinpoints and marks an enemy champion for 6 seconds.
  • Valor gains 5/10/15/20/25% bonus movement speed when moving towards marked enemies.
  • Quinn gains 2/4/6/8/10% bonus movement speed and 10/15/20/25/30% attack speed for 1.5 seconds after basic attacking a marked enemy. The buff duration can refresh. (Note: the mark is NOT Harrier)

(W)Heightened Senses (Note: no change)

(E)Rush Drop: *scales in ranks with (E)Vault Cooldown: 11/10/9/8/7 Mana cost: 50 Range: 700

  • Valor rushes at an enemy unit and releases Quinn, ending Tag Team early.
  • Upon landing, Quinn vaults off the target and deals 40/70/100/130/160 (+0.2 AD) physical damage. She then lands near her maximum basic attack range.
  • The target is briefly interrupted and slowed. Valor immediately marks the target as Vulnerable. (Note: Basically a modified version of Quinn's Vault)

(R)Skystrike (Note: New Skystrike is currently on PBE. No changes here)


So any feedback/harsh criticism/violent reactions/etc.? I feel like this should help distinguish Valor and keep his identity as an individual champion linked to Quinn. Thoughts? :)

Edit: forgot the part where Rush Drop marked opponents. Whoops

I honestly like where you are going. I have felt so bad for Valor, because I love diving in, auto, q, and ult for the kill. Not I really cant do it the same way. This is awesome, because as I said to my friend, they killed Valor. All he is...is a mount. With this, I have the potential for a double form. Love this Idea

If people want to downvote can they actually tell me why they don't like it? :(
