Basthet, a support "lee sin"

lee sin is one of the most iconic lol champs (aside from teemo), and it is clearly a result of his intense mechanics and outplay potential. The unfortunate part about support is there are very few champs with that level of outplay potential, so I'm here to post my idea of a support with that versatility, Basthet.

Passive: Void Rift

Nearby champions (ally or enemy) are marked with "voidsight" whenever a marked champion lands or is hit by a skillshot, a void rift will be revealed along the path the shot traveled, Basthet will gain bonus movement speed when walking on void rifts and upon walking over them the area of the rift she steps on is sealed, if an entire rift is sealed, Basthet gains a small gold and exp reward, if there is a nearby ally marked with voidsight when she gets the reward, that ally receives the bonus instead. Additionally, the first 4 spears in phantom pikes will also make void rifts, even if they miss, however rifts spawned from her phantom pikes will only grant a quarter of the gold and exp.

Q: phantom pikes

Basthet targets an enemy champion, minion or neutral monster. She will generate 5 glowing pikes above her head, every 0.25 seconds a pike will fire in the direction of the champion targeted, each moves at the speed and has the width of a Nidalee spear, however only deal a small amount of damage. The pikes will continue of an indefinite distance, but stop after they are farther away from Basthet than the target. The fifth pike will track the target, however will stop after 1 second of travelling (the pike can be outrun). Once all pikes stop travelling Basthet can reactivate the skill for 3 seconds to pull all pikes back to her dealing 1.5 times the damage they would deal when travelling outward. All the pikes will make voidrifts when returning, granting one quarter of the gold and exp

W: swipe of light

Basthet swings her pike in a cone infront of her, dealing damage to enemies hit and taunting them and granting an attack speed buff to allies hit. For the duration of the taunt/ attack speed buff Basthet can reactivate the ability to thrust all champions hit away from her.

E: redeem

Basthet redeems an allies hearts, healing them and increasing their vision range.

R: rune of the ascended

Basthet channels for 1 second while she digs a symbol into the ground around her. Once the channel is completed all allies and enemies in the area are gravitated towards her (similar to Dianna). Being hit by the ult will not deal direct damage, but all units caught in the range will be tethered together while within a close range to each other. Tethered enemies will take damage while tethered, multiplied by the amount of tethers, allies tethered will be healed multiplied by the amount of tethers

Thoughts -When Basthet lands her ult the play style of all hit will change, allies tethered will have to try to stay close to all other units to keep their healing sustained, enemies hit will try to get away from all other units to get rid of the damage. -Basthet's ult will tether enemies to each other so they will have to split up to avoid damage, catch out enemies who have to leave a group -Don't feel forced to use your W for the taunt or disengage, you can use it solely on an ally to launch an ally from a bad situation or closer to a fight to engage -Your passive's speed boost can be used to get into a fight, use your q to make a voidrift for the movement speed to engage, use your e to sustain yourself as you dive, use your W to cc multiple enemies so you can land your ult on the maximum enemies for an engage -use Basthet with an adc who uses lots of skillshot so you can proc your passive as much as possible -use your q on minions who are close to you so you can get a lot of easy rifts -Basthet can play aggressive in teamfights to land a massive ult or in the backline to peel with your W and heal your squishies -save your ult for massive fights, it is more impactful the more units are tethered

This post is REALLY long so I will post her lore in a separate post. Till then, comment what you think, upvote if you like it and tell me what great plays you think are possible with her kit. Bye
