New champ idea: Gaden, The spirit reaper

Gaden is the ultimate AD/AP late game fighter, which can also be built as an assassin.He can be used in every lane, even though some lanes are better than others for this champion. He uses items and health to his advantages and when he doesn't provide Death with a new spirit he will pay the consequences. Here's what i was thinking. Opinions and ideas needed!!!

Passive-Spirit Rush With every kill Gaden catches the spirit of the fallen. Gaden gets 0.01 attack speed for every spirit and his spirit capacity changes depending on the amount of base attack speed he has. Ex: 1.00 attack speed = 150 spirit capacity. The spirit capacity caps at 250 because that's the max attack speed for a champ. So his spirit capacity is conducted by: 250-your attack speed(without your passive buff) = the spirit capacity

Q-Betrayal Switches the type of weapon Gaden is using an gives him a bonus and or debuff Gun mode-Plus 10/20/30/40/50 AD and Minus 25/20/15/10/10% HP Scythe mode-Plus 6/7/8/9/10% HP and every third auto attack cleaves enemies around him.

W-(Scythe) Vertical Rose (20 Spirits) Gaden twirls in a side angle into the sky taking his target up with him and then slamming them down causing damage to the target and nearby enemies. Damage to target-50/60/70/80/90 + 50% (0.5) AD Damage to near by enemies-(0.25) AD

W-(Gun) Coward's strike (20 Spirits) Gaden runs up to his target and strikes them in their weak spot, which slows them, and then tumbles back a short distance. Damage from strike- 10/20/30/40/50 + 100% (1.00) AD Slow strength-10/25/40/55/70% and lasts for 1 second

E-(Scythe) Fall (45 Spirits) Gaden smashes his scythe on his target stunning them, damaging them, and marking them. Stun duration-0.5/1/1.5/2/2.5 seconds Damage-50% (0.5) AP over 5 seconds *Mark(I need a name) 100% critical strike chance on next auto attack or Consume.

E-(Gun) Consume (50 Spirits) Gaden focuses his energy into his next shot to kill, dealing additional damage depending on how much health he is missing. If Gaden kills the target he will be healed. This ability can proc Gadens mark and have a guaranteed critical strike chance. Focuses energy time-2.5/2/1.5/1/1 seconds Damage-0.2/0.4/0.6/0.8/1 AD + 2/3/4/5/6% Missing health Heal-100/150/200/250/300

R-(Scythe) Death call As Gaden sacrifices the last of his health he gains AD and invulnerability until he finishes his final move. If the target does not die in 1 hit then Gaden will die, giving the kill to the target, and replenishes their health by how much health he used. (I first thought of giving gold based on how many souls he had) AD gained-25% (0.25) Health sacrificed Invulnerability-1/2/3 seconds if the target dies to this ability Hits one target with 100% (1.0) AD

R-(Gun) Death Storm Gaden calls on the beings he killed to help him end his foes. He gains unlimited souls, exploding shots, and extra auto attack damage. If Gaden does not kill or help kill and enemy then Death will appear behind him and slay him and will also give enemies around some health back. Duration-5/7/9 seconds Souls-Unlimited (Thus giving him max attack speed) Exploding shots-20% (0.2) of the damage from that particular auto attack, the auto attack'ed target will also take the additional damage. Additional auto attack bonus-Summons a set of scythes to cleave his enemies running in the direction of his auto attack. Percent healing to enemies-10/20/25% of Gaden's health (or the enemies health)

Base stats: Health about 620 (so he can some health in his gun form level one) Attack damage-60 Ability power-0 Armor-20 Magic Resist-30

After reading all this you might be thinking, "THIS CHAMP IS FREAKING OP!!" But hear me out first. Gaden is the ultimate late game bruiser/assassin. He has many different ways to build him(depends on how you want to kill people). But because his late game is so good he doesn't have the best early game power. He has a low kill potential early game with some survivability. This champion can be countered many ways. Ex: Quick silver stashitem 3140 , Cleansesummoner 1 and tenacity item 3111 Irelia . A heavy counter for Gaden will be Irelia because of her easy mobile dash and her killer stun. Gaden mainly has a hard time with tanks because of how much health and resistances they have,which means he cant easily execute his enemies with his scythe ult,Death Call. He will have a terribly hard early game and some late game because he has to stack his Spirits to do anything. If Gaden falls behind early game then he will have a hard time to come back. But i honestly think Gaden will be a good champ. I do realize i made some things too overboard but that's why i'm posting this here. The rest of this post will be about example builds and playstyle of this champion.

Builds Utilize scythe form build item 3078 item 3153 item 3143 item 1001 item 3102 item 3026
This build uses a more bruiser type build. The triforce helps Gaden chase and burst squishy champions. The rest is health that will help u execute enemies with your scythe ult, Death Call. The guardian angel is there just in-case you failed your ult, then you can keep fighting. Utilize gun form build item 3153 item 3143 item 3031 item 3072 item 1001 item 3085
This build is more about damage; close to a standard AD carry build. Runaan's hurricane will help Gaden with his gun ult, Death Storm, because the Runaan's passive will cause the passive bolts to deal exploding damage.(although it does not cause the blades to go to all the directions) Utilizing both gun and scythe forms item 3078 item 3068 item 3072 item 3153 item 1001 item 3022
This build uses a burst/lifesteal for Gaden to kill the enemy team squishy carries and then walk out of the fight,like an assassin, or keep the fight going and destroy the enemy from the inside out,like a bruiser. Tank build item 3083 item 3143 item 3068 item 1001 item 3190 item 3025
This build mainly helps his scythe form. This is also a build for him if he falls behind. This build is mainly like a support so he can peel and suck-up damage for his carries and provide cc to stop the enemy. This also gives a huge damage for your executing ult: Death Call.

Play style Gaden is the ultimate late game bruiser/assassin champion,depending on his build. Gaden doesn't have that much killing power early game but he can destroy the enemy team squishies and carries after he has a few items, levels, and team-fights start.

Poking as Gaden You usually want to start your poke combo in scythe mode. So you first attack the target with Vertical Rose,W, and then after the target is slammed on the ground you switch to gun mode and use Coward's Strike,E, to roll away from the enemy before they try to poke you back. You can also use your Fall,E, to stun and put a DOT on them. *A good way to finish off kills with Gaden is: Vertical Rose,W + Fall,E + Ignite(Summoner Spell) If you are in gun mode you just want to poke the enemy with auto attacks till they are low enough for you to use your Consume,E, on them. If the enemy tries to poke you back or chase you just use cowards strike to get away because if you do that the only way they will catch up to you is if they burn a summoner spell.

Team-fights Usually if you want to get someone on the enemy team dead then you use your Scythe ult, Death Call, to hopefully one shot them,or damaging them then ulting, and then start focusing other squishies. If you went the more gun mode using build then you just ult and shred the enemy team. but make sure you kill at least one,or get an assist, of the enemies because not only will your team suffer by losing one ally but the enemy will be at at least half health to fight the rest of your team.

In conclusion i think this is a good starting point for a new champion that is different to other champions. I don't have any pictures of Gaden but i will get some later. Thank you for reading this :DDDDDDD GL and HF ~Xrdit (Aka deathkid23)

This guy is the ultimate troll pick. "Mid or feed" will be replaced with "Mid or Gaden." I do not like the idea of a champion handing kills to the enemy if he did not build correctly.

I am a fan of versatile building, but this guy's build will become mandatory in one way or another. I was so excited to try different builds for Gnar, but he ended up being very limited in effective builds. It is the stance swap and the "If the target does not die in 1 hit"-thing that limits build options.
