Role: fighter, jungle, support Lane: Any Resource: mana Damage type: mixed Mobility: average Crowd control: low average Utility: high Toughness: average

[Passive] Raishe soul piercer: Somui weilds a blade forged from a fragment of his soul that causes enemy champions who are pierced by this blade to become marked with punctured and take 20% of Somui's Ap as bonus true damage from his abilities these marks last for 6s and reveals enemies while marked. Enemies who are pierced a second time while marked are stunned for .6/1.2/1.8 seconds at levels 3/6/12 respectively.


[Q] Quiver, Somui shimmers for 3 seconds becoming invoulnrable and immobilized, afterward he reappears 600 units at a target location blinding enemy champions within 400 units if him for; .6/.9/1.2/1.5/1.8 seconds. This ability can be recast during this period to instead spin and remain at his location after the 3 seconds dealing 40/60/80/100/130+ 40%ad + 20%ap


[W] Raishe extend: Somui channels mana into Raishe causing it to extend up to 600 units to a target direction dealing 70/90/110/130/150 + 30% AD + 15% AP and slowing enemies hit by 30%(slow applies to both attack and movement speed). The blade remains at this length until changed or Somui is killed, increasing his range but reducing his attack speed based on the swords current length.


[E] Raishe true spear: Somui slashes at either side of him dealing 75/100/125/150/200+ 60% ad and after a brief delay fires a pointed energy wave 800 units in front him dealing 60/70/80/90/100 +80% Ap and slowing enemies along its path, enemies hit by the tip are marked with his passive and stunned for .6/.9/1.2/1.5/2 seconds. (Size and speed of the wave is determined by the length of the sword, smaller waves have less cool down and travel faster, yet deal less damage)


[R] Raishe mirage: Somui channels for 10 seconds creating a copy of himself to act while he channels. After the 10 seconds Somui follows the action of his copy and returns to his point of origin. This ability can be recast to cancel the channel swapping places with the copy. If the copy is killed the channel is interrupted and Somui takes 10% of the damage.

Breakdown

Somui is an Ionian warrior killed long ago in the war for freedom. He wield's his sword Raishe as an extension of himself channeling his mana through it to enhance his abilities. Somui's passive Raishe soul Peirce deals marks enemies whom Somui had pierced with his blade to take bonus true damage from subsequent abilities. Somui's q allows him to safely close distance between enemies while avoiding damage as he transports, this ability is Best paired with his W to maximize on the number of targets hit and to perform a fade slash. W allows Somui to extends his sword in a target direction increasing his range and keeping his sword at that length to be used as he pleases, this ability allows a good amount of utility if used correctly, a good way to use this is to pick a direction to extend the sword before using his q in order to perform an almost inescapable fade slash, this ability can be used in a number of ways, if the sword is extended directly forwards he cab then quiver and slash/stab through multiple enemies, however this technique requires skill and accuracy since the hit box would be very small (60 units wide) since it requires using the tip top pierce and deal addition damage as compared to if he had it fully extended side ways 600 units out 600 units Any direction, E Somui slashes on either side of him creating a pointed wave which fires after the second slash, this wave travels faster based on its size and has a shorter cool down based on Somui's attack speed(sword length) 1. This is a versatile ability usable to clear minion waves and harass distant enemies, while applying his passive, the size of the wave can be increased by extending the length of the sword to have the wave travel slower and carry the full effects of this ability. _ 2. It can be used as a zoning tool keeping enemies at bay or as a way to sweep an area for stealthed enemies._ R Raishe mirage (kagebunshin), Somui creates a clone to move and attack on Hus behalf for 10 seconds after which he performs the clones same actions then instantly returns to his point of origin, this ability is Somui's greatest asset, by creating a clone he is able to travel to various locations and perform various safely actions before doing them himself and returning to his starting point. This ability has a fair amount of utility, it can be used to mount attacks, scout areas, kill targets and even strategic retreats, the clone can be used to perform a double fade slash or for extra quick damage in this combo r,w forwards,e then this automatically repeats after the 10 seconds, this also applies to critical strikes, meaning any damage inflicted by the clone is repeated in exact values.

So, obviously his W and E both set up his passive. But when you say pierced by the blade...his abilities do it, but do his autos count towards this? cause obviously, if he can pierce with autos (even with crits...item 3095 is a thing) that passive is going to be a permastun by late game. Just a clarity question.

Does W deal damage initially in a line and then he gains increased range and attacks like normal? Or does his basic attack damage get changed to W damage for the entire duration? And does W apply passive? Since it sounds like a piercing ability when 1st cast.

Also in the event that extend hits and pierces a target Quiver can be used to close the distance on the target, Scenario Somui is bot lane against enemy malphite, Somui uses extend Procs his passive somui can q towards malphite placing more of the sword through him to deal the damage caused by extend a second time.

I kinda figured I'd have to explain more on how this works, left it in the polls so if you have any other questions on combos and mechanics shoot
