Godhri·11/22/2016, 5:42:17 AM·3 votes·862 views

Alarak Damage type: AD Auto attack animation: Slings thorns from a vine whip Range: 525 Movement speed: 330 Base Starting AD: 43

Passive: The thorns slung from the whip apply a debuff that increases the victim's damage taken from subsequent attacks by Alarak or his pets by 2% . Stacks up to 10 times. Lasts for 2.5 seconds per stack and decays 1 stack at a time.

Alarak can only deal 50% auto attack damage to enemy champions and Epic/Large monsters while his pets are inactive.

Q: Call of the Wild CD: 12/11/10/9/8 Mana: 70/75/90/95/110 Summons wild creatures based on the terrain he is next to. He must be at least within 125 units of any of the below listed terrain to use this skill; this skill will always prioritize Vulture summons unless he is standing IN brush or water. These summons attack the last thing that Alarak attacked. Alternatively, they can be controlled via holding down alt + mouse clicks.

It takes 3 auto attacks to kill each summon. The extra auto from Runaan's counts as half an auto attack. Neutral monsters/minions including large monsters attacks count as half an auto attack.

Each summon lasts until killed (or until this skill is re-casted) and Alarak will have only 50%/20%/80% total AD for his auto attacks depending on which summon is active.

Wolves steal 50% total AD from Alarak to add to their base damage of 20/30/40/50/60. Wolves steal movement speed from their victims at 1/2/3/4/5% stolen per bite up to 5 bites worth. The wolves gain the movement speed stolen not Alarak.

Level 1: Brush: Summons 1 wolf Level 2: Brush: Summons 1 wolf Level 3: Brush: Summons 2 wolves. Level 4: Brush: Summons 2 wolves. Level 5: Brush: Summons 3 wolves.

Alligators steal 80% total AD from Alarak to add to their base damage of 5/10/15/20/25. Alligators can crit and have a 10/15/20/25/30% crit chance.

Level 1: Water: Summons 1 alligator. Level 2: Water: Summons 1 alligator. Level 3: Water: Summons 2 alligators. Level 4: Water: Summons 2 alligators. Level 5: Water: Summons 3 alligators.

Vultures steal 20% total AD from Alarak to add to their base damage of 5/15/25/35/45. Vultures deal a bonus 5% of the target's missing health.

Level 1: (Any) Impassible Terrain Wall: Summons 1 Vulture. Level 2: (Any) Impassible Terrain Wall: Summons 1 Vulture. Level 3: (Any) Impassible Terrain Wall: Summons 2 Vultures. Level 4: (Any) Impassible Terrain Wall: Summons 2 Vultures. Level 5: (Any) Impassible Terrain Wall: Summons 3 Vultures.

W: Wrath of the Wild CD: 25/22/19/16/13 seconds. Mana: 30/35/40/45/50 Duration: 3/4/5/6/7 seconds Alarak invokes the wrath of the wild and grants himself and his pets 10/20/30/40/50% movement speed and 10/15/20/25/30% attack speed.

E: Symbiosis CD: 20/18/16/14/12 seconds. Mana: 20/40/60/80/100 Duration: 5/6/7/8/9 seconds Alarak is affected by the attacks of and the damage received by his pets. He heals for 10/20/30/40/50% of the damage dealt by his pets. He also receives 10/20/30/40/50% of the damage received by his pets. This damage is mitigated by Druid's armor and magic resistance.

R: Nature's Final Requiem CD: 160/140/120 seconds. Mana: 100/100/100 Range: Global Alarak lets out an unnatural roar and unleashes nature's wrath on every enemy champion that is alive. The summons last for 5/7/9 seconds or until killed. While this skill's summons are active, Alarak and his pets (including these summons) move 50% faster. This can stack with his W.

All enemy champions are attacked by a creature of nature based on the terrain that they are nearest. The summons will attack the enemy champion they correspond to first until that champion is dead or until they are dead. They only target enemy champions. They deal the same amount of damage as the summons from his Q and scale the same as well except they do not steal his AD (they still receive the total AD bonus though).

Level 1: Brush: 1 wolf Level 2: Brush: 2 wolves Level 3: Brush: 3 wolves

Level 1: Water: 1 alligator Level 2: Water: 2 alligators Level 3: Water: 3 alligators

Level 1: (Any) Impassible Terrain Wall: 1 Vulture Level 2: (Any) Impassible Terrain Wall: 2 Vultures Level 3: (Any) Impassible Terrain Wall: 3 Vultures

I designed this guy to utilize summons as part of his core damage rotations. He is meant to be an ADC who is low-mid ranged. He is sort of an All-In adc champion as you can see he has no escapes. Based on his design and kit, he should be countered by long ranged champions like Cait and Ashe.

The idea is to try to engage your opponent where you will have access to all three types of terrain so you can juggle the terrain based summons as needed. Let me know what you guys think.

Alarak is the name of the Protoss hero in Starcraft 2, could have an issue with copyright.

Your W aand E are fine, no issues there.

Passive: Alarak basic attacks apply a debuff that increases the victim's damage taken from subsequent attacks by Alarak or his pets by 2% . Stacks up to 10 times. Lasts for 2.5 seconds per stack and decays 1 stack at a time.

Into melee range or when enemies are within 275 units, Alarak goes into melee form, he loses his whip passive and hits in a 180 degree arc dealing 50% damage to all units hit or 100% + 1% per level damage if only one enemy unit is within range.

is that what you mean? or

??? it's a new mechanic, better to be explained properly,

Q - how much gold do enemies get if they kill your pets? If you have one pet summoned, example 1 wolf at rank 2 and then you upgrade it to rank 3 on the river, do you get 2 wolfs or 1 wolf and 1 alligator, or 2 alligators? or do you have to recast to apply the upgrade? For balance I would give them the same health mechanic as Yorick's minions. giving them ward life could be OP as the numbers increase. if you die, do your pets die too? I would increase the mana cost much more than stated when you have 3 wolves. if 1 wolf is 70 mana, 3 wolves should be 210 mana. if you want you can make it 50 mana at rank 1, 60 mana rank 2, 80 mana rank 3, 100 mana rank 4, 140 mana rank 5. 90 for 3 wolfs is too cheap for an essential spell.

R- just to be clear, it's a global target effect, like Karthus and you summon copies for your Q on to each enemy hero? If your pets give enemies gold upon death, it's dumb. If they don't it useless. Imagine is there was a champion that was slit pushing and not in a team fight with you or your allies. he would get 3 kills for free. Imagine also if Yorick has a similar ult. Would it make a difference in any fight? Against Brand or Zigs or any Champion with a wave clear, your pets are not going to do squat. Look into just making your pets larger and stronger. you don;t need a global effect.

I think your passive overloads your kit, there is no need to have the mechanic of close range and long range effects. it also doesn't fit the theme of a Druid in my opinion. Definitely change the name into more "beast caller" type. i already mentioned the issue with Alarak alone.

Seems kind of hard to script....

This is really weird. I like the idea. passive: little strong 25 second total debuff is pushing it. maybe 2.5 sec to start decay followed by .5 sec per stack. Q really risky but i love the idea of a adc minionmancer. W and E are really thematic R seems hysterical and thematic but seems weird to have a global pressure ulti as an adc.
