Alden- The Inquisitor

Not too long ago someone else made a post titled Eltra -The Mage Bane who was an assassin more focused around targeting mages as opposed to adc's. So I wanted to make my own version of this idea. Similarly to Eltra, Alden is from Demacia and has been taught his whole life to despise mages (and he does, obviously). Although I would imagine something extreme such as an attack directly perpetrated by mages that resulted in a majority of Alden's family dying, when he was a child. Also similarly to Eltra Alden is an assassin focused upon killing and countering mages. I imagine Alden being rather average in stature. He bears a cloak with a demacian symbol on it. He wears light amounts of petricite armor. He bears a long knife that is similar to a Wakizashi (traditional japanese short sword) with a curved blade. This knife would be somewhere between a sword and a knife in length. Beyond that his attire is similar to that of Talon (only he has no hood.)

Petricite Blades: Once every 40-15 (levels 1-18) seconds, Alden's next basic attack is empowered. This empowered attack deals 10-90 (levels 1-18)+(35% attack damage) bonus damage and silences enemy for 0.5 - 1.5 (levels 1-18) seconds.

Q: Plunging Blades Alden stabs deep into his enemy dealing 20/40/60/80/100+(85% total attack damage) damage. This damage is increased by 10/15/20/25/30% if enemy is below 40% hp. cooldown: 14/12.5/11/9.5/8 range: 300

W: Mage Ward Alden places a Petricite Ward on the ground that lasts for 3/3.5/4/4.5/5 seconds. All magic damage taken by him or allies within 500 units of the ward is reduced by 20/25/30/35/40%. On top of that, the duration of all cc from spells that deal magic damage is reduced by 15%. cast range: 500 cooldown: 30/27/24/21/18

E: Rapid Verdict Alden vaults over a target enemy landing 400 units on the other side of them from where he cast this ability. He can also vault over Mage Ward(w) Upon landing he gains 25/30/35/40/45% movement speed for 1.5 seconds. note: while midair he is invulnerable and untargetable. range: 300

R: Demacian Precision After a delay of 0.5 seconds Alden stabs his blade forward in a line dealing 50/100/150+(120% attack damage) damage and silencing all enemies hit for 1/1.5/2 seconds. range: 500 cooldown: 80/65/50

Pros: .Provides utility in teamfights with w as it also reduces magic damage that allies take .e allows him to dodge powerful skillshots. .At level 18 he can silence an enemy for a total of 3.5 seconds when chained correctly. . I would imagine e able to vault over short walls (if used correctly)

Cons . For an assassin he does not deal very much damage . If w is on cooldown and he is too far away to e over you it is easy to kite him.

Counterplay . When he places w using spells like 's w or 's ultimate to knock him away from it reaps him of his ability to close distance . Bait e before using cc as he can dodge cc with his e.

And thank you to the person who came up with Eltra as they inspired me to make this concept. [poppy-wink]
