Lui, The Stolen Hero

Hello Summoners! I have really been wanting to have a marksman who really expresses the importance of the kiting mechanic, even more than 's Q. Also, there has never been an ADC who has an AoE as their ultimate (with the exception of ). I wanted an ADC who has their ultimate that can output damage and be similarly devastating like , yet, still have a nice mixture of AD and AP like so that it is hard to build against. This is just a concept, rough draft idea of the kind of Champion I dream to have in the Rift someday, but I really put my heart and passion into it. As you can see, I not only put all the abilities with some detail, but I also tried to give this Champion some life by giving him a story and a personality, which also involves and gives deeper insight to my all-time favorite marksman, and favorite lore of . Please tell me what you think, what still needs to be worked on, and whither or not this will be a good idea to have as our next Marksman to come!

Lui, The Stolen Hero Marksmen, Assassin

Lore: Lui is a very skillful thief who was the leader of one of the largest bandit groups in Piltover. Lui and his crew saw the Mayor alone one night and mugged him of all his belongings, including a wrapped gift addressed to some girl, with "Happy 14th Birthday" at the bottom. Inside, it was the most masterfully crafted revolver Lui has ever seen, and he noticed that on the hilt was engraved "Seeker". That night, he got a report from one of the crew that the members who were with him earlier got tracked down and sniped. He immediately fled to Demacia, but on the way there, he had a near-death encounter with a mysterious gambler, who recognized the hextech gun and offered to tell him how to use it, if he were to look at it. Once Lui handed Seeker over, the man tipped back his hat and made a smug laugh, pulling one of the Aces he apparently always has stuck in the golden flap of his hat, and held it to Lui's neck. Lui nonchalantly back-handed the card away and held up the rest of the gambler's deck and smiled. In shock, the Card Master snatched the deck out of Lui's hand and tossed him back the gun. He then immediately fanned the deck of cards around him and vanished. Lui picked up the unintentionally abandoned Ace off the ground and noticed it appeared to be two cards stuck together. After pulling them apart, they seem to be more cards stuck together. Lui started to feel a powerful energy and closed his eyes. He tosses one of the cards and shoots it dead-center without even twitching his head to align the shot. Lui discovers that Seeker has a unique power that goes beyond sight, but he will need to find the owner again to harness its full potential. He overhears a rumor that the Mayor's Daughter has become piltover's finest sharp-shooter, and he pulls out an old, worn out birthday card to look at the name. The entire name has faded except for the "C" at the beginning. Now, after every crime he commits, he leaves one of the cards with an ornate "C" at each scene. He then finds out that she joins League of Legends so he also joins in after her, hoping that one day, he will cross bullets with her in person.

"You can have your gun back, but you'll have to shoot it off my cold, dead hand." --Lui

Skills:

Passive: "Don't look" -Lui will always face in the direction that he is navigating, regardless of which direction he is shooting. He will do bonus physical damage whenever he is shooting directly behind him. (This bonus is doubled against minions and monsters)

Q: "Take Cover!" -Lui will dive to a nearby target ally, holding them down to take cover. The ally is briefly rooted for the duration, and any damage that Lui would receive is slightly shared with his targeted ally. This spell resets Lui's basic attack and can be canceled early. The dash can also go over small walls and terrain. (Items that the ally has, like , and spells, like 's E, will also take into effect). (While ally is rooted, the ally champion is immune to disposition, like 's Q)

W: "Swift Scavenger" -Passive: every 3rd backward shot will give Lui a short burst of movement speed that immediately decays over time. -Active: Lui shoulder bumps (knockback) while pickpocketing an enemy champion STEALING 5 Gold and slowing for a very short duration. If the Champion is facing away from Lui, he steals 10 Gold instead.

E: "Saw that Comin" -Lui will briefly stand in place, facing away from the enemy target. During that moment, he will deflect the enemy's next basic attack and fan a second shot that deals magic damage that ignores a portion of the target's Magic Resist.

R: "Eye See Now" -Lui harnesses the full power of Seeker and spins the cylinder, he then shoots 6 powerfully charged shots at any enemy champion in his AoE dealing physical and magic damage and slowing them. The bonus damage from "Don't Look" is doubled. (The channeling, size of AoE, and being able to walk around is basically like , but without the blink, and the targeting aspect is similar to that of 's Q... except one at a time and in quick succession).

Thank You so much for taking the time to read all of this, any an all feedback would be greatly appreciated.
