[Champion Concept] Vaios, the Omnikinetic

TheCrystalKnight·6/9/2015, 7:07:02 AM·1 votes·556 views

[Concept]:

Vaios is a ranged character who deals sustained damage by using skillshots to deal initial damage to his foes, then making use of his passive to fill the gap created by his cooldowns with empowered autoattacks.

In the League, there tends to be a clear separation between the AD champs and the AP champs. Some are able to be played as one or the other (Fizz, Teemo), but there really aren't any who are designed to be played as a hybrid between the two. I was thinking that Vaios could be someone who it's a very good idea to build both AD and AP at the same time, since he relies heavily on his autoattacks once his initial burst goes off due to his somewhat longer-than-average cooldowns and his modest AP ratios that typically mean that targets will usually survive the initial burst, while having literally no AD ratios to speak of to help his abilities scale off of it. He could be played as a pure ADC or a pure APC, however, his potential would be diminished.

[Abilities]:

-Passive: Elemental Affinity

Innate: Vaios's basic attacks are empowered by his abilities for 3/4/5/6 (level 1, 6, 11, 16) seconds, the effects stacking with each other.

-Q: Fire Strike

Cost: 50/55/60/65/70 Mana Cooldown: 10/9.5/9/8.5/8 Seconds

Active: Vaios fires a ball of fire in a line, exploding either on contact with an enemy or when reaching maximum range. Enemies hit directly by the fireball take (50/75/100/125/150 + 30% AP) magic damage, and enemies caught in the explosion are burned for 50% of the direct hit damage over 4 seconds.

Affinity - Fire: Vaios's basic attacks burn their targets for (15/30/45/60/75 + 12% AP) damage over 2 seconds, or refresh the timer on targets already burning (this means either the burn from Fire Strike's active, or the burn from Affinity - Fire).

-W: Ice Spikes

Cost: 60/65/70/75/80 Mana Cooldown: 13/12.5/12/11.5/11 Seconds

Active: After a short delay, Vaios impales a target location with spikes of ice, dealing (70/95/120/145/170 + 33% AP) magic damage to all enemies caught in the radius and slowing them for (10/20/30/40/50 + 1 per 70 AP)% for 4 seconds.

Affinity - Ice: Vaios's basic attacks slow their targets by (5/10/15/20/15 + 1 per 140 AP)% for 2 seconds, or refresh the timer on targets already slowed (this means either the slow from Ice Spike's active, or the slow from Affinity - Ice)

-E: Force Wave

Cost: 60/65/70/75/80 Mana Cooldown: 12/11.5/10/10.5/9 Seconds

Active: Vaios blasts enemies in a linear area {similar to, but smaller than, Sona's ult} with force, dealing (100/125/150/175/200/225 + 40% AP) magic damage

Affinity - Force: Vaios's basic attacks deal an additional (25/30/35/40/45 + 10% AP) magic damage on hit

-R: Lightning Slam

Cost: 100/100/100 Mana Cooldown: 120/100/80 Seconds

Active: Vaios channels for a short time, charging up energy before electrocuting an area around him, dealing (150/225/300 + 60% AP) magic damage and stunning all enemies hit for 1/1.5/2 seconds.

Affinity - Lightning: Vaios's basic attacks strike instantly {a la Vel'Koz or Azir} and chain to 2/3/4 extra targets, dealing 65% AD to secondary targets and applying all active Affinities to them.

[Appearance]:

Vaios is a man in his late 20s to early 30s, with sandy-blonde hair, fair skin, and slightly luminescent green eyes. He wears light leather body-armor over vulnerable areas such as the groin, torso, shoulders, knees, etc. Under the armor, he has an olive-green tunic and canvas-brown leggings on. His basic attacks would reflect which Affinities they were empowered with by their appearance, appearing to be a distortion in the air with trails based off of the affinities (or a lightning bolt with Affinity- Lightning).

[Personality]:

Vaios is somewhat snarky, willing to speak his mind and not afraid to crack jokes. His quotes reflect this, as well as his pet peeve of his powers being confused for magic.

[Quotes]:

-Selection:

Fire, ice, force, or lightning, I've got them all.

-Movement:

On it. Making tracks. Right. How's the view, Summoner?

(Upon issuing a lot of move commands near each other in a short time) I know, you only need to tell me once. I'm going, can't you see?

(Upon issuing a lot of move commands far from each other in a short time) Make up your mind! Oh, my other left?

-Attacking

Let's go beat something up. Who's unlucky day is it? Heheh, sounds fun.

(Upon issuing a lot of attack commands against the same target in a short time) Yes, I'm aware it's _that _ target. They're gonna get hurt, don't worry.

(Upon issuing a lot of attack commands against different targets in a short time) I can only hit things so fast, you know! Which one?

-Joke (summons a ball of each of his four elements and spins them around himself)

It's not magic, it's psionics! There's a difference!

-Taunt (creates a ball of light in his hand, which explodes into the element corresponding to the quote)

You look like you're burning with anger! Do I send chills down your spine? Hmm... Looks like I've been forced to do this. You'll be gone in a flash!

-Death (energy arcs off of him as he falls to his knees based on his active affinities, then they fade and he falls over)

Rrrgh... Lost... Control... Uhg... Aaargh... My powers... Nooo...

-Respawn

Phew, that was unpleasant. Let's try again.

[Afterthoughts]: Thanks for taking a look at my page! This is the first champion concept I've submitted, so any tips for improvement, be it balance to his abilities, formatting, or what-have-you, would be greatly appreciated!
