#Ventall, The Cosmic Entity

Ventall is a melee AP fighter intended for the jungle who uses his Gravity Staff to fend off enemies who oppose him. He relies on utility spells and his mobility to fight, while setting up kills for his allies and utilizing his unique resource, Matter, to take advantage of being in the thick of the fight. Ventall is an adventurer, exploring the cosmos in order to learn about the universe and potentially learn of how he came to be.


#Lore: I awake, confused, exhaustion plaguing me. All around me is darkness. Where am I? How did I get here? I ponder these questions for some time and realize I don’t even know who I am.

An object floats near me, slightly spinning. A rod of some sort? I lift my hand as if to grab it, and it drifts towards my open palm. As the object makes contact with me, I feel immense energy pour throughout my body.

“Wow.” I say aloud.

No longer fatigued, I start to notice my surroundings. The darkness becomes less oppressing as small lights appear. Those aren’t lights I think to myself. Those are stars. Realizing this, I look around and realize that I am not standing on anything. In fact, I am floating. But, despite this, I feel as if I am in complete control. The staff in my hand has a cool, metallic feel. I start to move and realize that I’m willing myself to do so. It’s the staff I realize.

I feel the power of the staff echoing through my body, beckoning to be released. I close my eyes and focus. I feel a brief sense of motion and, opening my eyes, I see I am back on land. Astonished, I look up and see the night sky and it’s stars, and realize they are different somehow. I don’t just see them. I can feel them.


Ventall’s abilities do not cost mana. Instead, his resource is “Matter”. He absorbs ambient mass emitted when Ventall attacks {5 Matter}. Matter does not decay or generate idly. {Maximum Matter = 100}

http://i.imgur.com/Q6t3w4H.jpg [Passive] - Celestial Gravity If Ventall auto attacks while he has maximum Matter, it deals magic damage around him, draining all of his Matter. For the next few seconds, all of Ventall’s auto attacks heal him during the duration of the passive. (Ventall can choose to not auto attack and instead spend his Matter on his abilities as usual)

  • Quasar: Ventall channels his energy and shoots out a beam, dealing magic damage and slowing enemies. The longer the spell is channeled, the greater the damage and slow. If the beam is fully charged, then it silences any enemy hit. After the cooldown on Quasar ends, the ability changes to Pulsar.
  • Pulsar: Ventall concentrates energy into his staff, causing his next auto attack to deal magic damage. A percentage of the damage is converted into a shield. After the cooldown on Pulsar ends, the ability changes to Quasar.

http://i.imgur.com/LXKB4Zh.jpg [E] - Wormhole Ventall bends the space around him and teleports to target location. I was thinking it either has a set range or the range increases based on ability ranking.


http://i.imgur.com/qQ77jaf.jpg [R] -– Gravitational Force Ventall leaps to target location and stabs his staff into the ground around him, dealing initial damage to enemies around Ventall, rooting Ventall, and slowing enemies within the area. After a few seconds or upon reactivation, he sends out a shockwave pulling any enemies still near towards him.


Potential Combo(s): All In

  1. Initiate with a Quasar to slow your target(s)
  2. Teleport to them with Wormhole
  3. Pull them all in with Gravitational Force
  4. Activate Pulsar
  5. Start wailing on them, with Pulsar, your W, and your passive. {Credit to Linkblade91}

While totally different characters, I was intrigued to see a "Cosmic Entity" character appear on the Champ Suggestion forum after I had just posted my champ idea: Qorval, the "Cosmic Emissary" haha :P

A minor thing that bugs me is that your ultimate is called "Gravitational Force" and yet the ability shoves enemies away lol I would maybe have called it "White Hole", "Repelling Force", "Repulse", or something like that.

Other than that, I like it :) I love that you included ability icons; that's not something I was capable of doing with mine, 'cause I lack the skills for stuff like that. And I like that his Q switches between each use; a champion could have a lot of variety with abilities of that nature, while setting up neat combos.

I would say pull them in. This would combo better with your passive, and your abilities:

  1. Open up with a quick Quasar blast to slow your target(s).
  2. Teleport to them with E.
  3. Pull them all in with your ultimate.
  4. Quasar should have become Pulsar by then (maybe), so you can activate that.
  5. Start wailing on them, with the Pulsar, your W, and your passive.

Edit: Although, moving in this direction would probably make Ventall more of a Warrior/Mage like Diana, versus a straight AP Mage.

No problem :) As a one-time, part-time "creative consultant" (i.e: a professional brainstormer), it was my job to spend my hours coming up with ideas for stuff lol

q- a little confusing. so in one form it's a beam in another it's extra ap on auto attacks? w- yi w only for mana instead of health e- flash, phase shift, been done, and is annoying as fuck r- viktor's augmented w in a larger area?

r would probably be about the only one i'd keep, but like...black hole...get in on a spot and just pull them in like the opposite of xin's unti...set it up for a kat and galio and amumu and such...i can see how e could help this...i'd like to see a complete rework on w...have him gain matter as he moves or something. then for q...instead of a charge make it be more dependant on how much matter you have and it be easier to gain the matter later in the game. say like his passive is gaining matter by the distance he moves. also represented in his model. yeah i think switching w and his passive sounds good to me...toggle the damage and matter spent through like 4 stages. none, 10% extra single target damage, 30% small radius, 100% largest radius...
