Christopher, who also goes by Palthamar, wields a dark blade from the void that he uses to slice and dice his enemies.


Passive: Void Touched Blade- Christopher's auto attacks apply a stack of Void Touched Blade to the enemy he hits. This can stack up to 6 times on an enemy, and each stack increases Christopher's damage to that enemy by 10%.


Q: Dark Energy Rush- Christopher's blade rushes with dark energy, causing him to attack 60/80/100/120/140% faster for 3.25 seconds. Each attack deals 50/55/60/65/70% damage. For every 1% crit chance Christopher has, these strikes deal 0.5% more damage (so at 100% crit chance and this at rank 5, the strikes deal 120% damage). Cost: 50/55/60/65/70 mana Cooldown: 12/11/10/9/8 seconds


W: Whirl- Christopher whirls around, dealing 10/25/40/55/70(+40% Bonus AD) physical damage to nearby enemies and becoming untargetable for 0.5 seconds. This ability adds 1/1/2/2/3 stacks of Void Touched Blade and the cooldown is reduced by 0.75 seconds whenever Christopher is attacked. Cost: 20 mana Cooldown: 10/9/8/7/6 seconds Radius: 175


E: Void Venom- Passively causes Christopher's auto attacks to deal 10/20/30/40/50(+8% Bonus AD) bonus magic damage. Additionally, Christopher gains 3/6/9/12/15% critical strike chance. The damage from this ability can critically strike.


Ultimate: Shadow Strike- Chrisopher strikes a target and marks them for 4.5 seconds, dealing 50/75/100% AD physical damage to them. After the mark wears off, the enemy takes an additional 75/100/125% AD physical damage plus 20/25/30% of their missing health. Cost: 100 mana Cooldown: 110/90/70 seconds Range: 600




Lore: Christopher was a normal dude before he entered the void.


Skin Ideas: Christopher Columbus- Christopher takes the appearance of a sailor from the void that uses a pirate sword as a weapon. Christopher Walking- Christopher takes the appearance of a old man with a walking stick as a weapon.

I'm sry but it's just a kassadin rework (He was a human before he goes to the void and he uses a sword) :/

But nice rework x)

He's incredibly facerolly. And Kassadin-like, except he's way better because he can crit and gets free crit from his kit like a Yasuo.

All of is E seems to be a permanent passive so his autoattacks are almost always going to deal more damage than any other melee assassin besides maybe Zed, Ekko and those that don't build crit. Even against crit champions Chris is going to outdamage them almost all game because he gets free crit chance by maxing E.

You max E, max Q then max W. always taking R ranks.

His Q is a little vague, is that 250% attack speed for 1.75 seconds? Imagine how many times you can proc Blade of the Ruined King with the number of attack you can do with this late game. You shred tanks really quickly even at rank 1 Q. You get 130% attack speed for 1.75. Plus extra damage from 25% crit at level 5. I would just rush item 3153 or probably better yet, item 3072 for constant shields.

item 3031 item 3072 item 3153 item 1300 item 3071 item 3026. Epic lifesteal from proccing it 100 times every time I press Q. 20% CDR and Rage passive for sticking power, not to mention BotRK active. I can hit 50% crit chance with just an infinity Edge at level 6 or 7. Every I Q I am guaranteed to get a lot of crits if the enemy sticks near me.

I'd could go top with Chris with tanky runes and masteries rush black cleaver then blade of the ruined king then a blood thirster or infinity edge and melt every tank because of one full procc of a Q with Blade of the Ruined King then execute them with ultimate.

Your champion seems broken in my honest opinion.

Hard counters are those that are range and have CC because pre 6 Chris has no mobility nor does have range.

On one side he's critting everyone that gets close to him (melee) with tens of Blade of the Ruined King procs. And after his Q goes on CD all you can do is die because he still has really strong lifesteal with a Blade of the Ruined King. and He statistically crits you every 4 attacks. with just a maxed E at about level 7 or 8.

So one one side Ahris will make mince meat of you if you try to fight her any time. Kalista will simply kite you because you can't catch her. Annie can easily stun you any time you try to teleport in or get close.

Anyone ranged can harass you back to the void because you can't exert pressure besides basic attacks.

Idk. He's a feast or famine character, too binary.

I like the idea, but he seems incredibly overpowered. You would have to tone down the AD ratios on his W and Ult, he seems like a hyper assassin who could kill practically anything using just Q and Ult. Also on that note, town down the attack speed buff to something reasonable but increase it's duration. Also you'd have to change his name. I don't think I'd be terrified of anyone named Christopher. Make him void themed like kassadin and Malzahar. Perhaps Palthamar could be a better name?
