[Champion Concept] Hamelin --The Bind of Soul [Tank, Assassin]
http://jamaipanese.com/wp-content/uploads/yumekui-merry-anime-00007.jpg
Hamelin more or less looks like that. His weapon is a long staff which can be used as pipe. His main role is tank, and the secondary is assassin. Although, the assassin+tank looks incredibly unfair, but Hamelin is countered hard by mage, adc, and other assassin. However he has good times fighting against fighter, bruiser, and tanks.
Lore
The lost town.A town of nowhere to be found. Prceived as not less than a fairy tale. It's said that the lost town was a never ending utopia. With ever lasting spring. Where the wind breeze in the day, and magic rose in the night. It had the most modern technology of magic. Legend says that the inhabitants are geniuses, the race that have the highest intelligent one can imagine. There were only few of them. But one day they disappeared.
Theory says that it was because of natural causes such as tsunami, that annihilated the whole race and destroyed the whole city. Other theory says that it was because an accident in their lab. Though many theories, none of them taken as a serious thing by people.
Popular theory says that there was a magician from the inhabitant of the lost town. He connected himself with darkness, acquiring power of stealing one's soul. And capable of destroying even the biggest juggernaut. There's no evidence of this theory, or no one live long enough to become the witness that proves this theory.
The magician was named Hamelin. Its namesake is taken from a town in a fantasy world from a fiction written by a popular writer of runeterra. In his book, he said that there's a town in a small planet called earth, there was a similar accident, or incident, happened. One that demolish living thing, The piper that stole one's soul

if the owner of the skill hit by the imitated skill, deals additional magic damage to the owner, equal to 100% of their bonus armor and bonus magic resist.
Overview
Stats His HP is big. This is his only source of tankiness. Since his armor is crap. His base hp will be bigger than squishy champions, but will not as big as tanks with defensive build. This way he can manage his full power. You won't want to build tank for him, since it's counterproductive.
Passive : This is what make and destroy Hamelin. 40% increased damage means he is countered hard by damage dealers. His HP may high, but with that amplification, he will be as tanky as squishy. Buuut he apply 60% of bonus armor/MR of the attacker, which means you counter bruiser/fighter/tank. They won't even make a scratch of you! And His second passive is make the rift darkened. Pretty straightforward.
Q : Good waveclear. I may pick him in jungle with this skill. This skill's damage is crap, unless the enemy is tankier than you. And in the night, it have unique features which will really help your ult.
W : This skill is more night oriented. Pretty clear imo
E : Imagine it as illaoi's E. It pull a spirit. But Hamelin consume the soul. Damaging and heal him.
R : Imitate skill !! We don't have a skill like this in the rift yet. And what I love about this skill, is to imitate the skill, you have to E, or Q ( in the night), instead of just click and imitate. This way it creates more counterplay but still as satisfying. It also have fixed damage so you can't deal wtf damage when imitating veigar's ult or other burst champion.
in general, Hamelin is a tank eater. He wreck everyone with high armor, MR, and HP. He heals for a large amount if he can hit his skill to the enemy tanks. However, Hamelin is bad against squishy bursty champion. He has no damage against them, and has no tankiness either. Hamelin is a strange champion, normal champion deals more damage to squishy, and avoid tanks, but Hamelin breaks from the norm of normal champion
