Deep Inside the walls of The Immortal Baston

Long have I waited. (Whispers of war)

This place never once touched by the hands of an Enemy(A long dark hallway with a dimly lit Pedestal)

I remember before we fell and after we arose (Flashing Visions of the fight for Icathia)

Time Changed us, and the Darkness still remained (Insert Aatrox, Rha’ast, Varus)

Long have I sat, but no longer (The Pedestal is empty)

I hear my Brothers Call (Glimpse of a shield)

Bio:

Long have I existed; we were once great powerful being that defended the world but after the war. We were denied our return and over time fell to the darkness. Corruption, and hate fulling my brothers. But long I've waited in the Walls deep in the heart of Noxus. But no longer, iv hear my brothers call. The winds of war have changed and no longer will I wait...

Da’arx The Darkin Shield

Passive: Da’arx Scales on Armor gaining an additional 30% armor buff on top of his added armor.

Q: Minimal Resistance) Da’arx’s next three hits stack reducing the armor of his enemies (2%/5%/10%)

W: Collateral Damage) At a cost of 50 HP; Da’arx slams the ground creating a AOE Slow. The slow last for 1.5 seconds, at a 20% slow

E: Disk) Da’arx throws his shield, shield throws bounce off of the first target his (can be angled for a double hit.) enemy hit by the second hit is stunned for 1 second.

Disk can be bounced off of Walls, and structures

While Disk is in use Da’arx has 30% armor reduction, and Da’arx must retrieve the shield to regain the passive.

Failure to retrieve the Shield results in a 20 second CD, when retrieving the shield Da’arx regains his passive and the CD is reduced by half.

R: Darkin’s Hide) Da’arx Gains a shield for 130% of this armor. And can leap to an ally granting them half the shield, while ulting Da’arx cannot be Knocked up or back.

I have thought long and had about what I would like to see in a champion that could embody the Shield of a Darkin. THe Champion must be durable but with Flaws. This is honestly one of my best attempts and I would like good Criticism. [sg-lulu]
Thanks Dr. Dead

Maybe give him some adaptive damage while his shield is away.

Would this be a good option for the E? “Da’arx throws his shield at a target, staggering it and dealing damage. The shield can bounce to X amount of targets, staggering and dealing damage (maybe have this deal reduced damage). After successfully hitting the first target, Da’arx can recast E to dash/blink to his shield and slam it down on a target to stun him/her.”

I think you should switch his Q and W. The Q sounds more like a passive, while Q sounds more like a short CD spell that Da’arx can spam with a small CD for utility purposes or to deal nice chunks of damage with a longer CD and/or a smaller slow.

If you want to go with my version of his E then I also think you should re-write his R to be more like a warden or engage support rather than this melee enchanter that I am visualizing from his ability descriptions.

after writing this next paragraph, I looked at the abilities more closely and I saw a more clear and less “messy” kit than what I thought I read earlier, I still think some abilities can be tweaked but not as extensively as I initially thought. Great work on this kit though! I like the idea, and I think we could actually create a presentable champion that Riot could add to the game. The kit though seems to be a mix of many things; the Q W and E makes me think he can be an engage support like leona, but the passive and R sounds like the same thing and I immediately think of a support like braum, somebody who protects his ADC and stops enemies from diving him/her (the ability that immediately comes to mind is Braun’s W). Da’arx’s W is fine for both types of supports/tanks, but his other abilities should be changed to make him more unique and to give him a clear role that he fills for his team.

Protector/warden supp: I think you should completely change the Q (I don’t think armor reduction would fit on a protector/warden) and slightly change the E.

Engage/initiator supp: I think the passive and R should be changed and maybe also do the changes that I recommended for E and Q.

You don’t have to listen to my ideas for changes though, I still really like your initial kit I think it is a really good start! I just wanted to share my ideas and I kinda went on a tangent and spilled everything onto this comment as it came into my head lol.
