ABILITIES

Passive: Red Alert Upon reaching 20% health, Corrode stuns all nearby enemies for 1 second. Cooldown: 60 Range: 150

Q: Destructive Punches Passive: Corrode uses his enemies's remaining parts to fuel him, healing him for 1/2/3/4/5% of his Maximum Health for every unit kill he gets.

Active: Corrode makes his next attack within 4 seconds desolate his enemies, stunning the target hit for 1 second and dealing 50/60/70/80/90% of his Total AD to surrounding targets. If this attack hits a tower, the tower takes 100% bonus damage for 3 seconds. Health Cost: 20/30/40/50/60 Cooldown: 7.5 (After attacking) Radius of AoE: 400 (around the attacked target)

**W: Latch/Launch ** Corrode latches on to a selected enemy, moving with them for 3 seconds. Corrode cannot attack or use abilities while latched onto an enemy, but he does give vision of the enemy's location and travels with them if they use Teleport, Flash, or any other kind of Movement ability. Reactivating the ability launches him towards the cursor, knocks the enemy back in the opposite direction and deals 40/65/90/115/140 (+75% AP) Magic damage to them. If the ability is not reactivated after 3 seconds, he loses his grip and falls off where the enemy is.

(Note: If the selected unit becomes Untargetable, Corrode will fall off immediately.) (Note: If Corrode is Snared, Stunned, Polymorphed, Displaced, Suppressed or forced to move, he falls off.)

E: Thin the Crowd Corrode swipes at his enemies, dealing 45/85/125/165/205 (+60% Bonus AD) damage to enemies in a cone and knocking all damaged units up for 1 second. Health Cost: 3/4/5/6/7% of current health Cooldown: 12/11/10/9/8 Range: 450 Angle of Cone: 70 degrees

Ult: EMP Burst Corrode channels for 1.5 seconds before he unleashes a massive burst of power, slowing every enemy champion on the field by 70/75/80% for 2 seconds. His passive is also immediately activated regardless of his health or if it is on cooldown. This resets his passive's cooldown. Health Cost: 15% of current health Cooldown: 120/110/100 Range: Global

LORE

I'm not sure how long I'll be able to talk, but while I'm civil, I'll try to answer your question.

When Viktor took me under his wing, taught me the ways of Techmaturgy and Evolution, I initially admired him. I thought "Wow, you can evolve all the things about a human they don't like, while still keeping the good parts!" Sadly, Viktor thought a bit differently; he wanted to remove every shred of human in his body so he could perfect his work, and that included taking away his emotions.

I was genuinely scared at that point; he seemed like a madman, and I no longer wanted any part of his "Glorious Evolution". But, he was smart. He didn't trick me, he knew that it wouldn't work since I already showed disgust to his plans. He instead just started upgrading me in my sleep. I woke up to find him trying to saw off my legs.

I yelled as loud as I could, but with the metal "helmet" he attached to me, if was muffled. Viktor injected me with some sort of neurological chemical or something and I was out cold again. Then, I woke up in the darkness of his "failed experiments" room. The only human left of me were my eyes.

The flesh you see around me isn't real, it's just a rubbery substance that's good for keeping all the mechanisms in my body. Even my brain was altered to a point; it's now mostly a hard drive that I can actually take out and put back in at will. My eyes are the only human thing Viktor left, and so I'd call them my lucky charms. My last bit of humanity.

Now if you'd excuse me, I feel an outburst coming out. I'd leave as quickly as you could.

Thank you to whoever actually upvpted him. I appreciate it.

Okay, so there is something op about your concept, and that is the Ultimate. a potential 90% global slow is too much. The E is a bit odd to think of, because I'm imagining sideways punches punches, but you say its a knock up. As for the passive, I can't make heads or tails of it, but I think it checks out. Everything else is pretty good man!

In regards to EMP Burst... I feel like the actual slow amount is reasonable for an ultimate-level ability, but the three second duration is what I take issue with. The fact that it has a channel time means that you're giving your opponents a good window to realize "hey, I'm about to be massively slowed, I'd better get to a position where I'm not going to die." I can see that being a pretty cool thing. But with the duration being that long, I'm afraid it's just going to be a "push button, win teamfight" skill, because three seconds is far more than enough for your entire team to catch up to and destroy the other team.

One thing I'd keep aware of is that CC bots DO work, and they DO have a place in the game. Nautilus springs to mind when I look at this champion, just because of the sheer amount of stun and disruptive effects Corrode can put out. That said, I feel like Corrode's engage potential is extremely high, thanks to the knockback on Launch. I honestly don't feel like it would be possible to escape a gank if you got hit by Latch. Essentially, you're going to get hit with a knockback into an unavoidable stun (Q), then another knockup, then probably a massive slow. At least with a champion like Nautilus, you have to hit a skillshot in order to engage properly.. As it stands, Corrode just clicks you with W if you blunder into range (or if he has you ulted), and completely wrecks your day.

I do want to say though, I like the idea of that passive on a tank/initiator type of character. You'll just really need to watch how much damage he'll be able to put out, it'll really need to be on the low side if he'll be able to chain this much CC so easily. At the moment, I'd say the numbers look fair, but it's always a bit tough for me to get a good feel on numbers without being able to see it in action. And I like that the ult has the potential to be an extremely strong initiation tool (on par with Malphite ult, I believe), but that it also requires good teamwork and followup.
