(Champion Concept) Another Darkin

Hello all,

I had this idea about a champion for a few reasons. 1/ The Darkin race seems draped in mystery (there is 4 more we don't know about) 2/ Coming up with a list of qualities in a champion and my play style (Trying to save that 25 hp tower to a 3 man push with no allies around*) I found myself gravitate toward during late season 5 3/ There are many champions that have a dash/jump/maneuver one way or another and often its a game changer to name a few.

My champion concept is that of another Darkin but unique in their own way. this darkin is a bit thicker than Aatrox in appearance and carries a halberd one with a hooked blade on the back side. possibly clawed hands or something and different wings that may be smaller or not as long. I know on the wiki has the occupation: Avatar of War. I don't know if there are plans already possibly linked to this already in development. My idea was to have a Darkin focused on keeping enemies in the fight. or manipulating movement to gain an advantageous position. In their backstory i haven't thought about what other type of focus X champ would have. The in-game focus would be Manipulating the enemies position (specifically targeting dashes*) I would think this champion would do well in top or support roles but could be flexible. even if the entire enemy team had no dashes they could still perform a role effectively and fairly.

Passive/ haven't thought of a cool one that doesn't 100% rob the Trox, but i'd like to keep the darken race similar to the story. Also not sure if the information has changed and if it has by all means no Regeneration and give the guy a tail that occasionally swings out or replace w with that.

Q/ Using the Background the Q ability would be something similar to how most darkin have wings(rereading it now I might be mistaken). but in contrast to i would say this one cannot dash over walls it is faster with no delay almost like a shutter flight. X champion dashes in target direction (not too far) displacing those in an aoe or on the flight path could maybe sweep the blade to deal some damage as they pass by or through.

W/ passive could be that every 4th auto attack X champ bites or claws their victim stealing some life or putting a debuff on them OR every 2nd Auto attack on an enemy champion he claws them but only at a certain range like 125 but his aa range could be like 200 Active could be that he buffets wing or grabs a target creature with blade and swings it or just a simple empowered auto to slow??

E/ This ability could be X champion after a brief windup attempts to skewer in a direction. if the small aoe ability connects with a viable target it deals damage and forms a short tether( outstretched weapon). after a short delay the ability can be recast to flip the target over to behind the champion Dealing slight damage. if the tethered target dashes while the weapon is still inside they Break the tether no matter what range and take significant damage. if for whatever reason X champion breaks the tether by exiting the range/displaced out of range/forced out of it, the ability goes on cool-down and no additional damage is done.

R/ The ultimate ability could be An aoe burst following the style of but be recast able 3 times in a time-frame. with the first two casts X champion swings weapon in a targeted direction cone and dealing significant damage to those within close range and knocking them back. those further back may just be slowed briefly. The same target cannot be knocked back again by additional casts just slowed(those still in close proximity take Damage. The final Cast Possibly Fractures the ground dealing damage in a line and displacing those in its path.

The mainstays of this champ are Uses a Long weapon to manipulate opponents positions/ and if you get an opponent at the right time (maybe even mid-dash they take a ton of damage. Need not be a darkin or could even be a non winged darken that hates the trox and looks to punish him for interfering with civilization.

*1 I try not to jump into situations that are statistically improbable of a positive outcome anymore (keyword try).

*2 I like how the new champ, Taliyah, incorporates some anti-dash mechanics in her kit.

Thanks for reading this far if you did and if you felt like this [zombie-brand-facepalm] the whole time I appreciate constructive criticism.
