Yuri, the Blade of Shadows

Hey guys, i am TheDrNurse. I've been seeing a lot of champion ideas here and I've decided to add my character design ideas to the rift too. Enjoy.

Artwork http://imgur.com/J3KwuYX --> my terrible drawing but more to come...

Lore As far as lore goes... i still don't have much of an idea. I like the idea of him being a somewhat hermit like character that could somehow fit into the zed/shen story line. I am still working on the lore but really wanted to get this idea out there and see what people thought.

Idea I really wanted to make a melee assassin that did physical damage and has a chance to have a very high skill cap. That when in well trained hands can wreak the enemy back line and disappear before they know what hit em. On the same note, i also what him to be squishier than a plush teemo.

For me, i have always liked champions like diana, ahri, akali, and riven that had multiple strike capabilities. But along the lines of an AD champion, there isn't really anything that finds that niche (irelia kinda does...). The idea behind this was to create a champion that could follow different builds from lethality to Korean jax builds and be able to play both in the mid lane and top and maybe even the jungle.

Stats (wow these look a lot like Zed's numbers...) Health: 579.4 (+80 per level) Attack Damage: 54.712 (+3.4 per level) Attack Speed: 0.644 (+2.1% per level) Movement Speed: 345 Health Regen: 7.09 (+0.65 per level) Armor: 26.88 (+3.5 per level) Magic Resist: 32.1 (+1.25 per level)

Abilities

Passive - Hidden Strike Hitting an enemy champion in the back deals increased damage. This also reveals the enemy champion for 4 seconds.

Q - Tenraku (japanese for tumble) Champion dashes to targeted location. If Champion dashes through an enemy champion, deals 30/45/60/75/90 (+90% Attack Damage) physical damage. Deals 50% less damage to minions and monsters.

W - Itami's Blade (japanese for pain) This ability empowers the Champions next auto attack causing it to deal 60/85/130/160/190(+70% bonus Attack Damage) physical damage. Enemies hit by this ability are revealed for 4 seconds.

E - Tenso Tai (japanese for transfer body) When this champion is effected by any form of crowd control this ability becomes active for the duration of the crowd control. Activating this ability allows you to cleanse the crowd control and instantly teleport to a targeted location near by leaving behind a poof of smoke (kinda like a Naruto substitution jutsu that can be used to re position both offensively and defensively).

R - Shinoha (japanese for killing blade) (this is when his tattoos turn the light blue glowy color) For the next 10 seconds, all abilities have there cool downs reduced to 0. Once active, this Champions may use up to 3 (+1 per ultimate level) abilities within the 10 seconds. After casting an ability, its cool down is again reduced to 0. After casting the max number of abilities or after the 10 seconds, all abilities are put on cool down for 2 seconds.
