Some people really liked this champion so I decide I would post it :P. This guy didn't take as much thought as DhaMa so he might be pretty rough.

This is Kit, the Silent Stroke. He is a fox ninja with a giant inkbrush. He is mute so he communicates through ink writing. AD Top Bruiser

Passive: Ink Mark. Every third hit, the enemy's screen is darkened for 1 second. (Grave's smokescreen, Nocturne's Paranoia)

Q: Ink Wash. Shoots a cone of ink. Slows enemy and also applies an ink mark.

W: Calm Seal. Kit paints a circular symbol on the ground. All enemies within the circle are silenced and applies an ink mark. Allies within the circle gain a defensive boost.

E: Fox Flash. Instant dash in a line. All enemies in path take damage. (Fox McCloud's Side-B in Smash)

R: Black Script. Draw a path with your mouse (within a range). After clicking R again, Kit will become untargetable and dash across this path, painting a giant ink drawing. Any champion in the ink are silenced, and their Ink mark is activated.

(My skillset ideas are trash XD.)

The passive seems a bit strong, and the 3-hit-effect passive is really overused too. Perhaps he could leave a short trail of ink that he gains movespeed or armor when he stands on it. Otherwise, I like it a lot!

I cant wait to see how many Penis Ults he draws.

Really awesome concept. What I like most about the artwork is that this character actually looks like he fits in Runeterra/the League-universe.

Very cool thematic concept. Nothing in Riot's lineup has anything that focuses are artistic combat, and how I just want to see someone smack Darius with a giant paint brush.

Maybe he would do something like.....

Passive Gain a movement while runing on ink. Every time he damages a enemy with a ability leave a mark of ink on them every third mark lowers the vision of the target

Q Uses his brush to leap a short distance toward his target and deal damage, can cast again to swipe a small area with his brush any emeny hit takes damage while getting knocked back a short distance leaving ink on them. Enemys with ink leave a trail of ink(Doesn't count for passive)

W Sling ink dealing damage to enemys hit(This is filler, couldn't think of anything that would work good here)

E Slash two areas within a certain area of each other with your brush champions can traverse between the two(Kinda like portal)

R Draw a path with your mouse after clicking r again kit becomes untargetable and dashes across the path damaging enemys hit and slowing them? The drawing stays for awhile.

This is an amazing concept with a meh skillset, with the exception of the ult. Just having it silence and blind would be a little weird, but damage would be awesome. Probably one of the best/coolest ults in the game.

Some ideas for other moves:

Passive: Passively leaves a trail of ink behind him. Any enemy standing in the ink for 1 second is slowed. //Now, the reason this is balanced is that he gets kinda revealed by his ink trail, but he can pull off some sick moves with it.

The Q is a good move. Maybe add a secondary effect if it has a large CD, or just keep it the same with a low CD.

The W is also good, but maybe have it speed allies inside and slow enemies, like he has magical slippery/gunky paint or something.

The E is nice, but maybe we can slow down the dash and then leave a trail of ink behind that stuns rather than slows.

I hope you enjoy my ideas on this. Your champion idea is amazing, and I just want to help make a better moveset for him.

So when are you going to apply to Riot?

Juppuh9/23/2015, 3:16:34 PM3 votes

Love the concept, Rakoon! I do have a slightly different idea for the kit though so let me know what you think.

Passive: Calligraphy. As Kit walks, he drags his brush behind him leaving a trail of ink that lasts for 4 seconds. Additionally, if Kit closes a loop with his ink, it activates creating dark zone inside for 1 second (dark zone meaning enemies have reduced vision)

Q: paint splash Kit throws a pot of paint to target location (500 range maybe) creating a zone of magical paint that lasts for 3 seconds and reduces enemies' movement speed by 20/30/40% and increases allied speed by the same amount. (Radius could be like 125 or something)

W: Mysterious Mark Kit instantly marks the ground where he is standing with paint. For 2 seconds if an enemy walks over the mark, the mark is consumed and they are teleported to the end of Kit's ink trail where they are rooted for .5/1/1.25 seconds

E: Fox slash Passively: an enemy is marked with an ink stain every time Kit AA's them or if they stand in his trail for 3 seconds (max 5 stacks) Active: kit dashes to marked enemy, slashing them once for every ink stain they have. Passive doesn't apply when this ability is on cooldown.

R: Silent Stroke Kit becomes invisible and gains increased movement speed for 1/2/3 seconds during which he cannot attack or use abilities. At the end of this duration kit dashes back along his ink trail dealing damage and knocking aside all enemies hit.

The idea: wanted to provide a unique kind of peeler/initiator with the cunning vibe of a fox. I'm thinking Q and W would be pretty low damage if at all. Or maybe Q just reduces resistances whole W does a little bit of damage. Either way AA's and E would be the main source of damage but I think utility would be the main focus of this Kit ;D

EDIT: pressed send too early... twice

I've felt we lacked a Painter for a long time! Great concept!

That ultimate.. i want to use it !!!!!!!!

The ult sounds awesome. The silence mechanic seems interesting. Denying people vision via a passive seems too strong though. Why not reduce attack range or something?

TwoD9/19/2015, 12:40:05 AM2 votes

his ult should draw a big demon dragon overlord god titan that destroys everyone :D

Conturbatio9/19/2015, 1:37:36 AM2 votes

The "every-3rd-hit" passive is getting boring. Why not make it proc through his Q? Similar to Katarina & Akali.

Squidblimp9/19/2015, 2:01:18 AM2 votes

Some nice concepts! I like the idea of drawing a path with the ult, however I feel the effect should be different. I like it!

EasterGoose9/19/2015, 8:15:36 PM2 votes

The silent stroke sounds like some sort of advanced sex technique :P

Bastard Chief9/20/2015, 4:32:06 AM2 votes

Ok, i'd play that thing. Do the ink marks serve a purpose other than the ult?

stealthfox949/20/2015, 4:39:22 AM2 votes

This is awesome? Would instabuy. Riot please!

TBakes9/19/2015, 12:47:20 AM2 votes

What if his resource is ink? His passive could be related to how the ink is regenerated (maybe through movement?). Also, I really like CaptainMarvelous' idea for the ink to change colors and induce different effects based on the color. It would be similar to Twisted Fate's W, but you could experiment with mixing the colors for varying effects.

Strut9/19/2015, 3:25:45 AM2 votes

He seems to be mostly utility, would these be damage abilities that scale with ad? or would that have to come mostly from autos?

Kingsgrave9/19/2015, 4:00:41 AM2 votes

He has a paintbrush yet he only uses it to move around a lot? That seems rather bland.

He could paint over walls to create a path for him and his allies, he could create walls, he could alter reality with paint etc.,

Really love the concept! Good job! ^_^

Fowus9/19/2015, 4:29:21 AM2 votes

I'd get banned for using that ult ;)

PanterLily9/19/2015, 4:42:01 AM2 votes

I like it is a nice kit ,I just don't understand that R... pls elaborate.

The passive will be very good if it is stacked just from spells like Vel's, it will be a very good in team fights.

The W is fine.

I really don't like dashes, would like it a lot if he would just slap the enemy with the brush in their face and pushes them back a bit and he also pushes off of them.

I believe Kindred was inspired a lot from ur DhaMa, what do u think of him?

Castman9/18/2015, 9:49:56 PM2 votes

His joke should be "My strokes are silent...but I'm not"

BoxOfDOG9/19/2015, 4:11:32 PM2 votes

His subtitle is full of innuendo.

You need to get a job at Riot. You're awesome.

reminds me of sly cooper

Smithney9/19/2015, 7:40:21 PM2 votes

I am happy you admit your skillset ideas are terrible, since your artwork is the exact opposite – absolutely gorgeous. Indeed, let the Riot draw up Kit's kit, your art should be inspirative enough. ;D

Hay5eed9/18/2015, 11:34:16 PM1 votes

I actually like him. His ult would have to state that it can't affect the same enemy more then once because then people would just fill the entire circle of his range and then ult forever.

Scilot9/21/2015, 2:39:56 AM1 votes

I'll have to show this to my friend. His favorite animal is a fox, plus we're both artists and design champion concepts. We don't make the art for our kits but we spend about 1-2 hours on the abilities alone then another 2 hours tweaking the abilities to make them interact or fit with the rest of the kit, and blah blah more and more... then the lore... but i won't talk about that right now XD

If you want, we can work on a kit for Kit and keep the R similar to how it is. I love the passive but think it's a little overpowered and plain (3-hit abilities are getting old to me, but i still think a 3-hit could fit into Kit's skillset in an interesting way.)

After seeing Dha Ma and then this guy, I'm really looking forward to your next concept.

Leonidas Freedom9/19/2015, 3:33:21 AM1 votes

Ink Mark: instead of just losing all of their vision every three hits, maybe make them lose the effect of wards. make it so this can't be triggered on the same enemy for a short amount of time

q: like the idea w: name should be changed to ink blotch or something like that e: like the idea. maybe it could also slow or something r: I like the mechanic behind it, but instead of dashing you should make it like a giant brush or something. maybe drawing certain patterns do certain things (i.e. a crescent moon in front of you forms a wall)

ModCaptainMårvelous9/18/2015, 9:32:32 PM1 votes

Very Dawngate-y. (This is good! Dawngate had a lovely aesthetic IMO)

I love the look and the ult. The actual kit, however, is somewhat bland for me. I don't have anything really concrete for you atm but If you'd like I could spend some time making some kinda kit for you.
