Silas, The Umbrella Man

LORE: Silas was hired to be one of the most secretive spies in the cities of Piltover and Zaun. Champions such as Jinx and Viktor are unaware of this man and his abilities. Silas usually walked the streets looking like a citizen with an umbrella, however this umbrella is a very dangerous rifle. It has been said that he invented and created all of his weapons and spy gadgets. He allied with the Piltover Police Force with Caitlyn and Vi later in his career to help fight against crime. He was assigned many missions in his early life. He had to sneak into a facility in Piltover and slain some criminals and thieves in order to save a group of innocent people. However this was before he was known as the "Umbrella Man." A defender by the name of Jayce appeared in the same facility. "Who are you?" Jayce asked him. "I'm just...a guy." Silas replied. "A guy? Okay, now what is your name?" Jayce asked again. "It's a secret." Silas said. "What are you trying to be a spy or something?" Jayce continued. "I already am one, alright.....um....my name is......name.....is Silas.....It's Silas." "Well....Haha, you don't look like one." Jayce replied. Jayce decided to teach Silas some inventing skills and teach him how to use some gadgets. In order for Silas to be a spy he had to look as secret as possible, possibly in a way that looks like a weapon cannot be used. One day it was raining very heavily, Silas decided to used an umbrella, he was going to visit Jayce that day for some training. The training was held outside. "We're going to fight today, outdoors, here in the street." Jayce said. "What? I must have been mistaken, you said fight? outdoors? Can't you see it is raining?" Silas replied. "You must learn to fight in harsh conditions if you want to be a spy of Piltover." Jayce said while handing Silas a rifle. "It seems quite difficult to fight with this umbrella, maybe this could do it! A new invention, no one expects a man with an umbrella to fight." Silas stated. "Good point, Sounds like an idea!" Jayce had replied. After training and fighting in the rain, Silas went to go work on creating an umbrella machine gun. "This could also be used as a shield, I think it is great, we could call it the Gunbrella" Silas said after completing the product. Days later, Silas decided he would go and visit the police force and tell them about his gadget. "Good morn' Caitlyn, How do?" Silas greeted her. "I'm doing just fine, how about yourself? By the way, why do you have an umbrella? It's a sunny day!" Caitlyn asked and chuckled. "It's my latest weapon, no one expects it." Silas answered. "Okay, will see how it does, I guess" Caitlyn replied. It was all thought to be a hilarious joke, like how can a man have an umbrella as a weapon?! Most people have heard of this umbrella man who carries it on sunny days, they think he is ignorant and is very sensitive to the sun. Little did they know he was one of the greatest international Spies in the world with a dangerous missile artillery machine gun umbrella, therefore his abilities were quite unknown. He soon hopes to join the League of Legends crew, since most of his friends are fighting at Summoner's Rift.

This is THE BEST champion design i have seen in a long time. I think the idea is original, the kit is cool, and those emotes are amazing. What i like about this that i don't like about other champion designs Is that there are no completely game changing mechanics that make it "very original". What i noticed about his kit is simply that every ability that has scaling scales with ad. I think this would be very overpowered late game, where he can be snipe champions at the back line with his amazing scalings, and destroy any team that doesn't focus him completely, and even then he still has his e to not die of he is dived on. To balance this i think you should reduce the range on his ult and make his normal w scale with ap(ap silas op). Then add ap scalings on his passive without removing the ad scalings. I enjoyed reading this and it looks like you ut a lot of time into this.
