Ace, the Hired Sniper Marksman, Range: 625

Camouflage (passive): Whenever Ace is in a bush and not visible to the enemy team, his next auto attack within 1 second deals 125% of his attack damage and has 10/15/20% additional chance to crit. (15 second cooldown).

Vital Shots (q): Ace stops and reloads his sniper rifle (1 sec channel). Ace's next two basic attacks within 7 seconds deal an additional 10/25/40/55/70 (+ 10% AD) physical damage and slow by 20% for 1 sec. (There is an indicator showing both teams this ability is active). Cost: 70 mana at all ranks Cooldown: 18/16.5/15/13.5/12 seconds

Sensors (w): Passive: Ace stores a sensor every 50/45/40/35/30 seconds, and can hold up to 2 sensors at once. Sensors expire after 50 seconds, and Ace can only have 2 down at once. Active: Ace throws down a sensor at target location near him. The sensor scans an area around itself in a cone, spinning semi-slowly in a circle around itself and revealing that area (the cone). If it spots an enemy, it keeps the cone of vision on it until it is killed by two auto attacks, or the enemy walks out of range. Additionally, a spotted enemy is marked and followed by a spotlight from Ace's personal chopper for 6/7/8/9/10 seconds, granting vision. During that time, Ace's basic auto attacks deal an additional 20/27/34/41/48 (+ 10% bonus AD and 8% AP) magic damage to the marked target and his ultimate deals an additional 15% damage with the first shot, along with the 20% damage reduction being removed if the marked target is hit again. Cost: 50 Mana at all ranks No cooldown

Sidestep (e): Ace dashes a short distance in target direction. Additionally, if Ace is slowed, blinded, poisoned, or exhausted, the cooldown for this ability is set at 5 seconds (unless the cooldown would be shorter). Cost: 60/65/70/75/80 Mana Cooldown: 22/20/18/16/14 sec.

NO-Scope (r): Ace fires a shot from his sniper rifle in target direction after a .5 second channel, dealing 200/325/450 (+ 175% bonus AD) physical damage to the first champion or epic monster it hits in a range of 2500/3000/3500. This ability can be activated a second time within 6 sec, having the same effect, but dealing 20% less damage if the same enemy champion is hit both times. Cost: 100 Mana at all ranks Cooldown: 105/85/65

the Q seems pretty broken for such a low mana cost. With a full build you can kill tanks with ease. 20% AD true damage is about double the strength of Corki's old passive.

We already have sniper champion. Her name is Caitlyn. Or you can even call Varus a sniper. Other than that, the abilities you proposed are either super similar to already existing abilities, or just a bit broken. His passive is slightly midified Cait passive - stand in bush, deal more damage and crits (Cait's passive makes her stack up Headshot faster on the bushes) His Q is a bit like Fiora's passive, and also, another %true damage? Don't we have enough of wthis crap, do we really need a champion whose 20% of damage negates ANY armor? Itemizing against him would be nightmare. His W is very, very similar to Twitch's W: AOE bomb? Check. Slow" Check. Poison? Check (Twitch's W applies his passive). His E is one, big fck u towards enemies. Let's give him a free dash for escape when light CC is used against him. This would be just super annoying on lane. His ulti is very similar to Cait's ult (again Caitlyn, maybe because she is a sniper?), long range shot that can be used on epic monsters? Can be used 2 times in a row? Beutiful, beware doing Baron with this guy in enemy team, with good timing, he will snipe it from you and u won't be able to do jack sh*t.

I don't like your design. Imo, nearly all of his abilities are slightly modified abilities of other champions. Playing against him would be imo frustrating, and lastly, we have sniper champion, Caitlyn, and she fulfills her role really well.
