If inhibitor is already destroy, then 2 super minions will spawn.

#3. LORE

http://i67.tinypic.com/dha6gz.jpg Long time ago, there was an infamous city of Crohha. Inhabited by wizards, witches, elemental sages and all other kinds of magical people, yet, the city was known not for that. The thing, which went around Runeterra, from person to person, was a rumor about a demonic prison, where dark spirits were imprisoned. And while there were many different rumors about this prison, the existence of it wasn't a rumor - it was a fact. When city was built, new and fresh, the prison was already there, older than any other building in the town, magicians and witches used it to imprison demons and all other evil spirits they could find.

No one really knew how these demons were captured and imprisoned, what kind of magic were used. Only the magicians, who captured these demons, knew these secrets. Over hundred years, many different demons were captured, including 10 Lords of Sins, the most powerful demons know to men:

  • Lord of Vanity - creature, born out of a blessed mirror, but was corrupted by demonic essence, twisting it into horrible form. Demon, who lives to expose weakness, darkest wishes and feelings, who feasts on horror and pain of mortals.
  • Lord of Greed - a demon, who fashions itself with bones of monsters and animals. Very mysterious, while being very intelligent and cunning, this demon acts more as a wild animal, tearing attacking anyone in sight, tearing them apart.
  • Lord of Envy - poor blooded demon, who traveled from the underworld. He envy lives of mortals, simple and beautiful, so he takes them them away, killing mortals, watching them die slowly, painfully, as he enjoys every moment of it.
  • Lord of Fear - one of three female demons, she is passionate and wild. Made purely out of metal, no mortal weapon can even leave a scratch on her, while she enjoys breaking weapons of mortals, corner them and feast on their fear, as she takes away the hope from their hearts.
  • Lord of Rebellion - second female demon, but entirely different from the first one. Calm, collected, always plotting something, always things three steps ahead of everyone. She represents the grandest rebellion there could be - a rebellion against death, as she is the most powerful necromancer there could be.
  • Lord of Despair - the lindworm. He is half dragon, half demon. Strong, dark, malicious, he is the despair itself, as even his breath is poisonous. No normal mortal could ever be in his presence, as even being close to him, you would be poisoned to death in seconds, without him doing anything.
  • Lord of Thirst - the strangest and most mysterious of all other demons. He was knows to kill mortals on the spot sometimes and other times helping them to do what they want. Not even other lords of sins knew what he is or why he does something. Only one thing was certain - wherever he went, massive storms followed him.
  • Lord of Sorrow - the third female demon, maybe the saddest one of all other lords. She was born as a human, yet through terrible twists of fate, she ended up becoming a demon, bringing sadness and grief the every living creature around her.
  • Lord of Pride - maybe the most unusual demon between them all, he cowered himself with armor, not showing even an inch of his true body. Also, he wields the Eternity Blade, the heaviest and most destructive weapon known to mankind. And he wields it with ease, like it doesn't weight anything.
  • Lord of Rage - a living inferno or hatred, rage and bloodlust, he is the flame of destruction, yet, in his wake, ashes are reformed, brought back to life as remnants of his power. Without a form, he possess mortals, live inside of them until his vessels burns to crisps from within.

This city was well known and many powerful magicians living in it, yet, one day it disappeared from the face of Runeterra without a trace. Witnesses said they seen great number of crows, from thousands to millions, flying towards this city. Other, whisper about a demonic crow god, massive demon bird, who took this city right to the underworld or entirely separate dimension. However, no one really knows what happened, as no historical documents remained, to depict this even. Only rumors flew through people, but even those disappeared, as time went by.

Now, after great number of years, something started to change, something started to move. Travelers started to see things, talk about them to other people. They tell about unusual thing: about massive number of crows swirling about certain locations, about echos of screams and fighting, about strange chill in the air and about horrifying shadows.

People have forgotten about this city, about demons, who were locking inside of it. However, now they will be forced to remember, people will be forced to know the vile beings from this city. Runeterra will learn to fear and cower, as these Lords of Sins will emerge back into the world one by one.

Lindworm It is an ancient species of wingless dragons. Path of evolution and changes dragons had to take to transform into this new species aren't known. These wingless dragons developed build similar to humans: two arms, two legs, usually stands up on the legs. Yet, not like other species of dragons, lindworms had strong affinity to poisons and bacteria. They were seen to ingest poisonous plants, poisonous mushrooms and eat poisonous animals, which would explain their toxic presence. No other animals approached these beings, as even the breath lindworm breaths out is poisonous. At the current day of age, these wingless dragons are extinct and only records about them remains.

Demon with green scales Long time ago, when lindworms were still not extinct, one of them were captured by people and used for dark rituals. Cultists thought, that they can become immortal by using lindworm's poison after bizarre rituals. Of course, this was proven again and again to not be true, as everyone, who drank its poison, died. However, that didn't stop cultists. They abused this creature for a long time, until a demon get into their ranks. This demon whispered forbidden spells and incantations, dark magic to those, who seek dark magic. In the end, cultists failed to become immortal, but they succeeded in summoning a demonic spawn, which viciously killed cultists. Demonic mastermind took the spawn and planted it into lindworm, causing them to fuse into one dangerous creature.

Arskin If usual human is about at 100 IQ, then average lindworm was at about 60 IQ. Not very smart, without developed intellect, but still were pretty clever. However, when one of them got fused with a demon, his IQ started to grow, slowly, but surely. Not only that, but every aspect of it got improved slowly. After few years in this state, he was aware enough to name himself and try to communicate with other aware races. Yet, his personality and biological aspects got in the way of communication. He is very poisonous and toxic, spreading death and despair wherever go went. Because his demon side enjoyed that, so he continue in the way for another great deal of years, until one day he got caught and imprisoned in city of Crohha. While no records remain anywhere on how he was captured, his prison file says: not immune to poison.

Now, after many years of being locked up in the lost city, he awoken from his dream. Arskin's first personality: where is me? Me don't remember this place. Arskin's second personality: we slept for very long. Too long, but now we awake. Arskin's third personality: move... move... Arskin's first personality: me be quiet. Need to found where me are. He exit his prison cell, walked though the dungeon until he found an exit. Arskin's third personality: outside... freedom... Arskin's second personality: something not right. We shouldn't be here, it is not the time, yet. We need to get away from here. Arskin's first personality: me don't see anyone else. This is empty city. Me don't hear any humans, Arskin's second personality: we need to get away from here. Move straight, exit this place.

When Arskin reached the end of city, a demonic crow landed nearby and said: Crow: you, with the breath of my father, are granted permission to leave this place. But know this, sooner or later, my father will be reborn.

That unique mechanic literally just says "I get stronger the worse the enemy team is, or if they have any feeders". Having the better team already IS an advantage, you don't need to specifically give your champion free stats for it too. Never mind the fact that that super minion thing will never happen unless the game's such a complete stomp that you were already going to win anyway.

Is there a reason all of his basic abilities deal damage in the same manner? An initial physical hit followed by a 3-second magic damage DoT.

Does each tick of those DoTs apply a stack of the ult's toxin? Your wording is a bit vague on that, since you just say "abilities infect enemies" and the DoTs would be considered ability damage.

Also, for your builds, Rylai's would be core on him no matter what else you're building. Any champion with DoTs and AP scalings basically always builds Rylai's (except Teemo, whose DoTs either don't apply spell effects or already slow enemies).

Time to start.

Unique Mechanic...?: Global Despair

Alright, get-go, global stacking mechanic based on champion combat. I read it and though, okay, this is weird, but it can work if he does it right. The way this "mechanic" (which is just another passive) stacks is interesting since it rewards aggressive play across the board, so hopefully the rewards aren't too extreme to counter-balance, otherwise this just turns the game into TDM and a "run-it-down-mid" mentality once it develops a sizeable lead.

I also feel like a globally applicable stacking mechanic should have some form of drawback if it fails, but that's just me.

Despite this, I feel like this mechanic is inherently unnecessary the way it's intended because teams with a clear advantage already attain stat advantages in the form of drakes, baron, and herald, which promote more intentional objective play and coordination, which overall is better than just one lane randomly smashing its enemy laner and getting you random stat buffs.

Passive 2: Seal of Coil

Pseudo-Sunfire Passive for ability casts, okay, fine. The radius could be smaller, but if you're going for a longer-range caster, then sure. It also applies a debuff if you last long enough, so it feels intended for tanks moreso. I'd recommend defining a clear identity for this aura. Either make it short range and apply a debuff for tankiness, or keep the range but lose the debuff, akin to casters. This is without knowing the debuff.

Passive 3: System Shock

Holy mother of... WHY? Bear in mind that not only does this reduce Movement AND Attack Speed, but WHY in the hell does this REDUCE Critical Strike Chance AND MANA REGENRATION!?!? What is this passive even meant to be? Anti-AD Carry? Then why does it have random mana regen cuts? It's just randomly tacked onto to some bullshit debuff. I mean sure, Seal of Coil might have some trouble applying this since you have to deal 3 seconds worth of passive damage, but then this clearly just indicates to me that this is meant to be more of a tank passive and should be adjusted accordingly, not to mention gutted for the fact that it's just grossly overtuned (who the hell thinks -30% Crit Chance is a good idea?).

This is ignoring the fact that you basically gave a champion three passives. Drop at least 1 of them, though I recommend two. This could be half a champion's kit alone and you have this all in ONE SLOT.

Q: Lindwurm's Trumpet (I prefer the Germanic spelling)

Conical AoE, half instant, half DoT, half physical, half magic. Numbers aside, I guess the ability is alright. It's nothing particularly spectacular, but it provides sustain counterpl-

Oh.

It applies System Shock instantly at minimum, or stuns if they're already...

(I'm just gonna say this now, if the rest of your abilities apply System Shock in any way, this design is bullshit.)

W: Gila Bite

So every 6 seconds, you get a 3 second window of opportunity? An ability with a forced 33% up-time? I sure hope it's strong then, to make-up for the fact that it's relatively inaccessible.

Alright, so it's an AA buff.

It only deals damage. A very small amount of damage.

The "morphed" version doesn't do a whole lot eith-

And there's System Shock. No wonder this ability is so useful. /s

E: Death Stalker's Stinger

Alright, I don't understand what's going on here, anymore, why the hell does this guy need to be mini-Sion exactly? And why do ALL of this guy's bloody abilities deal half instant half DoT damage, split evenly between physical and magic damage? You call him a Diving Battle-Mage, which makes no bloody sense, since that just sounds like a Juggernaut with more ability casts. And a charge? Is that really necessary? No, and the fact that this ability ALSO applies Shock just makes it even more annoying.

R: Destroying Demon

Oh dear god, someone actually combined Rumble Ult with something else and thought that it would be a good idea. just no. And the fact that you gave it a %damage application just because isn't really funny either. The fact that this ability is the ONLY one that doesn't apply System Shock is the only thing I like about it.

As a whole, nothing is right about this design. You aimed for some awkward Battle-Mage design while giving this kit 2 sources of movement-impairing CC, a low-damaging aura, a TDM gimmick, and HYBRID damage? Just no, dear god no. Your recommended builds alone are just ridiculous. I'd just build this guy mostly tanky and run at the enemy without fear, and I won't have any trouble getting there since I have one of the most powerful dueling passives conceived here.

item 3047 item 3748 item 3068 item 3065 And then two other necessary tank items and BOOM, Tank Ekko 2.0, only more horrifying since you can't even effectively escape because of a near-permanent combat debuff that also slows.

Don't even like the lore to be honest, but I'm not big on created lore in general, so I won't say anything on it.

The kit design over-all is laden with too many gimmicks, some of which fail in the grand scheme of League outright, and the decision to create a Battle-Mage, provide it with hybrid damage that would be a nightmare to build resistances against, and then provide it a strong dive TANK kit just leaves this design doomed to fail.

0/10.

So when you say something you made is brilliant and you proclaim your delusional sense of supposed self-genius the way you notoriously do, it might take a little "comin' to Jesus" to help calm your ego a bit. It could potentially help your downvote dilema. I've taken the liberty of rewriting an honest version of the ult you proposed. I could do this for all of it, but I figured this would be enough to drive my point.

This might not sound as pretty as you'd like, so hold into the skin of your arse, I mean, your Arskin.

R: Arse Destroyer

Passive: Arse Pirate has the keystone mastery "Deathfire Touch" as an additional Passive. So pack Thunderlord's.

Active: Do you like Viktor's laser? Rumble's ult? Can't decide? How about we combine them with a damage mechanic that scales from a stackable DoT auto passive, and their own maximum health? A 60 second cooldown AoE damage ult sounds super fun to play against!

I can go on. I want to make it clear that your champ needs a little more attention, sure, but that's not what people are mad about. It's the fact that you claim your champs are the best. A little bit of humility can go a long way, but it will need to in order to climb out of the hole of Your current reputation on the boards.
