Look

http://images5.alphacoders.com/320/320629.jpg

Stats

HP 380 (+85) HP Regen 7.50 (+.5) Mana 255 (+40) Mana Regen 7.25 (+.5) AD 55 (+4) AS .725 (+3%) AP 0 (+0) Armor 18.5 (+3.25) MR 30 (+1.5) MS 345 Range 125 (Melee)

He would look like the Nazgûl (from the lord of the rings) + Talion (from the shadow of mordor). He would wear a black cloak with a sword sheath on his back. He would have minimal armor, Braces on his arms, shin guards, and a skeletal Mask (Like Call of Duty ghosts and Dishonored combined). His long sword would look like the Nazgûl's (Blackish blade and a slant at the top instead of a point).

Background (Not complete) (Plz post ideas that follow this basic format)

Idea #1 A man has a dying child/wife Is told that he will find a way to cure said child/wife in a forest/shadow isles (Twisted treeline???) As he is walking he comes upon a completely black mist (Not from the black mist video) Mist forms into figure and promises to saves his child/wife if he makes a pact with the shadowy figure He agrees and is engulfed in mist Turns into a Master of Darkness/Night Child/wife is healed, but is horrified by what he has become Man becomes twisted

Idea #2 Primordial being of darkness/night Is trapped/suppressed in the shadow isles Is released Creator of nocturne???

Abilities

Passive: Tormentor of Minds: Horux can dash to any fear Enemy or monster dealing 150% AD(Cannot jump to the same target for 5 sec) (Range is 1750)

Q: Fan of Blades Passive: On every 5th attack Horux suppresses his target and lashes out with 5 strikes (in 1 sec) dealing 14(+ 2 × champ lvl)(+25% AD) for each strike. Can apply on Life steal, but cannot crit or apply other on hit effects.

Active: 75 Mana all ranks CD 3 sec all Width: 75 Range 1000 Horux throws out a shadow blade dealing 60/90/120/150/180 (+50% AD). If it hits a target, the target hit is debuffed and the CD is reuced by 2 sec. (Name of debuff: Shadow Poison???) The debuff slows them by 10/15/20/25/30% and has all damage and magic damage (only damage from horux) amplified by 10% and all Q's deal 25% more damage for 2 sec. Q’s that hit a target who has the debuff on them will reset the debuff and their damage will be increase by 25%. (CDR doesn't affect this abilities CD)

W: Devastate: 75/85/95/105/115 Mana CD 14/12/10/8/6 sec Cast Range: Diameter: 450 Center Diameter: 175 Horux unleashes a powerful shadow blast (Starts in center and moves out in .5 sec) dealing 50/90/130/170/210 (+ 50% AD) Magic damage and slowing enemies by 50%-15% (the slow decreases the farther the person hit is from the middle). Enemies in the center take 70/120/170/230/280 (+80% AD) and are feared for 2 sec.

E: Veil of Night: No cost CD 35/30/25/20/15 sec Passive: Enemies that leave Horux’s sight are still revealed for 1.5 sec (this doesn't apply from wards, allies, minions or towers)

Active: Horux surrounds himself with darkness and cloaks for 3/4/5/6/7 sec. While stealthed he is immune to all sight, including true sight (except for rengar ult and towers), and reveals all stealthed champs in his sight. Horux will shortly break stealth for .5 sec if he attacks or uses and ability (ult will break stealth).

R: Assassinate 150 Mana CD 90/75/60 Horux blinks to any enemy champ within 2000/3000/4000 dealing 20/25/30% of their max health (+50/75/100% AD). If he kills his target the CD is reduced by 50% and is stealthed with a 10%/20%/30% MS buff for 3 sec. (Ult stealth is the same as E stealth)

Easter Eggs (Plz post ideas)

Zed - 2 Taunts “Even shadows can be engulfed by the night” “There are no shadows in the darkness, Zed”

Vayne - 1 Taunt "You hunt the creatures of the night, but can u hunt night itself?"

Vel'koz - 1 Joke "Oh Vel'koz, you rely too much on your sight"

Hi :) ty for your review, I'm returning the favor as promised. I'm not much of a lore person but can definitely help with kit.

Passive: Tormentor of Minds: Horux can dash to any fear Enemy or monster dealing 150% AD(Cannot jump to the same target for 5 sec) (Range is 1750)

I really like this idea, but I worry that (since aside from W) the ability to use it is very minimal. Few champions have fears, so this makes him really team dependent. What about a mini-fear (say 0.75 seconds) on the active of Q? Then you'd have enough to play with. Also, 1750 units is probably 2-3 times the distance I'd recommend for the leap.

Q: Fan of Blades Passive: On every 5th attack Horux suppresses his target and lashes out with 5 strikes (in 1.5 sec) dealing 14(+ 2 × champ lvl)(+25% AD) for each strike. Can apply on hit effects, but cannot crit.

Cool idea, but it needs to be damage on top of basic attack damage or I question its usefulness.

Active: 30/35/40/45/50 Mana CD 3.5/3/2.5/2/1.5 sec Horux throws out a shadow blade dealing 100/150/200/250/300 (+50% AD). Target hit is debuffed. (Name of debuff: Shadow Poison???) The debuff slows them by 30% and has all damage and magic damage (only damage from horux) amplified by 25% for 2.5 sec. Q’s that hit a target who has the debuff on them will reset the debuff and their damage will be increase by 25%

The current debuff is too strong even if only from Horux. Vlad only gets a 12% boost and that's on his ult. Talon has a similar ability as an assassin and max rank only gives 15%. I suggest (as above) that a mini-fear be implemented to play along with the passive instead of the slow. If you keep the debuff make it much much weaker (like 2/4/6/8/10%).

W: Devastate: 70/80/90/100/110 Mana CD 14/12/10/8/6 sec Horux unleashes a powerful shadow blast (Starts in center and moves out in .5 sec) dealing 80/120/160/200/240 (+ 65% AD) Magic damage and slowing enemies by 50%-15% (the slow decreases the farther the person hit is from the middle). Enemies in the center are feared for 2 sec.

This reminds me so much of Xerath . It's not a bad spell, and I like that the center fears (to add to passive use). However, the originality could use some tweaking.

E: Veil of Night: No cost CD 35/30/25/20/15 sec Passive: Enemies that leave Horux’s sight are still revealed for 1.5 sec (this doesn't apply from wards, allies, minions or towers)

Love this passive. Nice idea! I think if you nerfed the active and actually allowed the passive to apply to anything that reveals a champion it would be super cool and unique.

Active: Horux surrounds himself with darkness and cloaks for 6/7/8/9/10 sec. While stealthed he is immune to all sight, including true sight (except for rengar ult and towers), and reveals all stealthed champs. Horux will shortly break stealth if he attacks of uses and ability (ult will break stealth).

A suitable active to match the passive, but I think it's too strong especially for a non-ult. I think immunity from true sight is unwarranted if his ult is going to last so long. Try and choose one extreme and stick to it (either longer duration or true sight immunity).

R: Assassinate 150 Mana CD 180/150/120 Horux blinks to any enemy champ within 2000/3000/4000 dealing 20/25/30% of their max health (+50/75/100% AD). If he kills his target the CD is reduced by 25%(45 sec)/30%(50 sec)/ 50% (60 sec) and is stealthed with a 10%/20%/30% MS buff for 3 sec. (Ult stealth is the same as E stealth)

I like the execution style ultimate, but it has a reset feel to it that I don't think really matches the current cooldown. Honestly, I think a mechanic like Darius is needed. If you can't continually execute, I think the CD reduction needs to be larger.

Overall, looks like fun (just needs a few tweaks.

Just perfect! But with this back ground, i'd use rage instead of mana.

Okay now is this what i'll be called an asshole for.

Passive is way tooo OVER POWERED. NERF it to all hell or make a new one. if you would like to keep it i'd make the range on it like 600. and place a cool down on it like 180 to 150 seconds.

Q. get rid of the passive. it does too much damage already. nerf the damage scaling to somewhere close to maxing at 140 resulting in a scaling like this: 75/95/115/135/155 (+20 Bonus AD) If a target hit is feared then it should apply the shadow prison debuff, the debuff should then reduce the target's armor and magic resist for a duartion of time.

W. just reduce the effectiveness of the slow to 35- 15%.

E. Change the passive, to where he places a shadow ward/ soul spy That acts as a fearing/vision ward (similar to Shaco's jack in the box without damage). This would provide vision, combo with his passive, and also stop/delay/prevent ganks. Nerf the stealth time to a max of 6 - 7 seconds. increase his crit for short period of time after leaving stealth or once it's over.

The ratios seem strong, but the concept is solid. tweak the bonus ratios and youl be good to go. also the x2 champ level makes it almost abuse of how powerful his Q is. its too much damage in five hits, even though the base numbers are static.

I like the concept of being the Master of Night. That's something that isn't done very often anywhere. However, the champion himself is extremely off balanced. Some of his abilities are way too powerful. I would consider revising some of his abilities, possibly taking away some passives or revising them. As he is right now, the damage he can deal with a single ability is just too strong. And that's just talking about the base of the attacks.

DiamondMatthew11/22/2014, 1:26:04 PM1 votes

Hey guys, I need y'all's help. Horux's Q active is quite OP right now and I need y'all's help to think up a way to revise it. I want it to stay the same ability wise in the way that it functions and I want him to be able to chain Q on 1 target, but I don't want the Q ability CD to be too low or too high and I don't want the debug to last too long. Plz post your idea below and thx.

I like the concept but you really need to tone down the damage on his q and w. When making a champ try to think of what it would be like to play against it. If there is no counter-play then its broken to an extreme degree (im looking at his q's passive). I love all of his special taunts though. If you got time here is my champion concept, http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/skin-champion-concepts/oy9AABB2-champion-concept-kasroc-the-great I'm really looking for help with lore and abilities.

Earthlord Jazz12/4/2014, 8:55:55 AM1 votes

Didn't scroll through all the comments so maybe this was mentioned, but his passive is a little strange as none of his abilities fear his enemies. Sure, if you have some champs with fears on your team you can compensate, but that takes team coordination during champ selection which we all know can be frustrating at times.

He should have the ability to proc his own passive, much like how Yasuo can proc his own ultimate but can still rely on knockups from other sources.

I'm not a fan of assassins (AP or AD) but the concept is different. I think the range on his ult is way too much considering Caitlyn's ult only has 2000/2500/3000 range and does not deal Max Hp%.

I think his stealth should be revealed by Vision wards- because at the moment, stealth characters are still pretty hard to anticipate without proper warding. This would give him too much free reign.

You could change his ult to deal 15/20/25 + (25/50/75% total AD) in magic damage over time. That would make him less burst-y and not affect snowballing. By the way, is his ult damage magic or physical? Because if it's magic, he's going to be dealing a ton of damage if he builds DFG.

Hey, I'm back on the boards, with ideas to share

Svddenly4/16/2015, 10:27:39 PM1 votes

Alright. Review time.

Passive: What is this doing here? What does this do? Can he dash to feared enemies? Hooray. The range doesn't need to be so absurd (because he's melee. He shouldn't be fearing people from a mile away). He definitely needs a different passive.

Q: (Passive): A. Supression is pretty OP. Expecially in 1v1s and on a basic ability. There are only 2 supressions in the game (I think) and they aren't passives, and are ultimate abilities. B: Why do you have per champ level scaling on a basic ability? Remove it. Better yet completely rethink this ability. (Active): An extremely spammable ability with 1000 range on a melee champion... And you have 2 damage amplifications on it. Rethink this.

W: Magic damage that scales with this much AD for no reason. AND IT HAS A 2 SEC HARD CC. Rethink this.

E: (Passive): Doesn't fit with an ability called "Veil of Night". Veils hide things; they don't reveal them. (Active): Instant stealth is a no go. Especially if it avoids pink wards/red trinket. And if it allows him to continue to be stealthed after attacking. Rethink this.

R: Instant billion damage from nowhere + free stealth and movement speed if he gets a kill. Rethink this.

You may think this was harsh, but I'm just being realistic. I would be a lot more okay with this if it was just the numbers that were screwed up.

I think all that you need to do to reduce the feeling that this champ is op is reduce his health stat so that he only gets 45 hp per level, 1 m.r. Each level, 2 armor per level, base move speed should be 335, and give his E a mama cost
