Champion Concept: Viviaan - The Darkin Spear

ChaosReyn·2/11/2019, 8:56:06 PM·1 votes·2,105 views

So, with me and this board not getting along, I had no choice but to email myself all the updates, delete my original post, and reset basically everything...All annoyances aside...let's try this again, now complete with ultimate and the trademark double A.

Lore: The Darkin prisons have been discovered across the land, their weaponized forms and power dwelling within cursed wellsprings. One such wellspring lay in the ruins of Icathia...and its captive was ironically released by its ancient enemy: The Void. Once a mindless, hungry creature, one of many in the vast legions of the Void, the being that fell into the wellspring was consumed and transformed by the Darkin named Viviaan. Single handedly, this Darkin warrior forced the Void itself to retreat to whence it came. And now, free from her prison, she seeks vengeance on the descendants of her captors.

I imagine her core form to look somewhat like this: somewhat grotesque, as it's a humanoid form made from taking over a voidspawn, but very limber and agile. However, imagine this picture with an exoskeleton that can be chipped away at, and you'll have what she'll look like most of the time. Also, with slightly more pronounced female features, as this one seems very...genderless. I'll probably catch hell for my wording there, but all the classy people know what I'm trying to get at here.

Artwork is not mine. It's from the D&D monster Manual, actually. I don't usually do pictures, but I couldn't really think of any way to actually describe this character without one.

Base Stats:

HP: 578 (+88) HP5: 7.5 (+.75) MP: 350 (+40) MP5: 8.5 (+.55) AD: 58(+3.2) AS: .474 (+.031) AR:30 (+3) MR: 32 (+1.5) MS: 345 RN: 145

Passive: Chitin Armor - Viviaan has a hard exoskeleton around her core form that chips away as damage is taken. While above 50% hp, Viviaan gains bonus armor and magic resist based off her current hp. While below 50%hp, she gains bonus attack and movement speed based off her missing hp. grants 1 armor and MR per 7/5/3% hp above 50% (upgrades at 7/13) or grants 1% bonus AS and MS for each 5/3/1% missing hp below 50%. note: there's probably a better way to word this...but basically, she will have more defensive stats that chip away to nothing as she approaches half hp. At half hp, she loses the defensive stats completely, but starts gaining offensive stats, which like Olaf reaches its peak at very low hp.

Q: Forceful Lance - Viviaan thrusts her spear forward, dealing damage in a 300 unit line in front of her and healing her for 30% of the damage dealt. 1s after the thrust completes, a shockwave covers a 550 unit line in the same direction, dealing lower damage and knocking enemies back 250 units. Viviaan can move immediately after her thrust, and if she move into the shockwave, is propelled 350 units in that same line. 1st hit: 60/80/100/120/140(+55%AD). 2nd hit: 40/55/60/75/90(+30%AD) Cost: 65/70/75/80/85 mana. Cooldown: flat 12s

W: Corrupted Spear - Toggle: Viviaan expends mana to add a corrosive Void poison to her basic attacks. The toxins deal bonus damage over 3s and lower armor by 1%, stacking up to 5x, then refreshes on each subsequent hit after. 10/20/30/40/50(+20%AD) per stack, total of 50/100/150/200/250(+100%AD at max stacks.) over 3s. Cost: 20/25/30/35/40 mana per strike.

E: Omega Strike - Viviaan charges forwards, at a rate of 2x/2.5x/3x/3.5x/4x her movement speed, towards a target destination in a straight line, stopping on the first champion or large monster hit, or on hitting terrain. The range for this ability is determined by how far she can walk in 1.5s at that pace. She deals a flat amount of damage to enemy minions and small monsters she passes through, and will deal damage to enemy champions or large/epic monsters equal to that flat damage + the distance traveled. 40/50/60/70/80(+35%AD) (+1%AD for each 100 units traveled) Cost: flat 100 mana. Cooldown: 26/23/20/17/14s.

R: Void Storm - After a 0.75s delay, Viviaan stabs her spear into the ground, briefly opening a Void Rift. The rift erupts in a torrent of Chitin, dealing damage over the next 4s and healing Vivion while she is in the area. If Viviaan was below 50% hp when this ability was first cast, she gains additional hp, equal to a percentage of the damage dealt. If she was above 50% hp during the initial cast, she falls to 50% hp, shedding her chitin armor, and amplifies the damage of this ability by the amount of hp she lost in casting this ability. 250/400/550(+70%AD) over 4s. Heals for 10% of Viviaan's max hp over 4s. if over 50% hp: Viviaan cuts her hp bar to 50% hp, adding damage to the storm equal to 20/30/40% of the lost hp over the duration. if under 50% hp: gains an additional 15/25/35% of damage dealt. Cost: 100/125/150 mana. Cooldown: 200/170/140s.

One question: for her e is it the distance she can walk in 1.5 with her normal MS, or is it the "2x/2.5x/3x/3.5x/4x" of her MS? If it is the later one that means she can dash 340*4*1.5 = 2040 units?

I really like what you did there with the ultimate, but ultimately (haha, get it?), this will make her a bit too strong.

She has two mobility spells that adds up to quite a lot of distance. It is fine all by themselves thanks to her being a melee champion, but with her ultimate, her flank will be a bit werid.
Her ult is very similar to Rumble's (not similar similar, I'll explain) in which you don't need to hit anyway for it to be a good one. But... we want it to hit. How about make the Void Rift into a striaght line(90 degree to her e, she "slash" her spear) if this is cast during her e? I know this is even more similar to Rumble's r, but it will make her think twice before spamming her mobility (and it can be quite an interesting mechanic) I highly suggest lower the damage of her ult all the way down and boost the AD ratio (and add ad ratio for the healing/%max hp damage too), as of currently she can build full tank and still be very much relevant.

I love the lore. I thought darkins are weaker than some strong voidborns.... but I guess this darkin got lucky lol

I wish I had half as much talent as the creator of this XD.

How big is her ult?

It's hard for me to say anything without knowing that xP.

If her ult is only fiddle's size (I thought it was camille's ult size), then it's pretty weak. The ult itself does not apply any type of cc, meaning it will be pretty easy to escape it. It's going to be really hard to use it to engage, so this means Viviaan (tbh I like the old name, but oh well) has to enter the fight only when it's about to end (in a way, it is similar to a weak katerina) How about making it slightly bigger (Camille's ult size? lol), but decrease the damage overall but increase the healing if Viviaan is in the zone. A while ago I was talking to some guy (if you want it I can link the thread) about a champion with some sort of reality marble (that cool thing from Fate/Stay Night), and I think this concept might as well work. Of course, if you think this is a good idea, Viviaan's ult probably need to be tweaked a lot.

By the way, I think her passive (the half where she gains ar and mr based on hp) should scale with her current ar and mr. Currently there are like 2 ways of building her (on-hit or full ad "assassin"), and that's really not a lot. By giving her tank build a little more power, she can build things like: item 3065 item 3047 item 3025 item 3800 item 3071 item 3153

So...I've figured out that in editing, the board automatically changes certain symbols to fancy symbol texts. If I leave those symbol texts, the client wont update. Also, you were spot on about spacing, Gil.
