#Lore:

There was a man named Kenn who was a wealthy individual and who earned a title in Piltover as one of the greatest inventors.

That was until one day when his wife and his daugher had a unfortunate journey back to Piltover. The grief of loosing the only thing he had closest to family drove him into madness.

One night Kenn left Piltover to go to Zaun, the only place where he could find the equipment he couldn't get in Piltover. Upon he's arrival and the collection of the required equipment he began making preparations for his new invention. Deep down Kenn already knew he lost his sanity, but he just wanted to have something he can call his family so he created Demyan. When Demyan was created Kenn looked upon him more than a invention that he created but he looked at him like he was his son he never had, Demyan as a cyborg didn't understand what this meant at the time.

As days went on Demyan became curious of why Kenn created him and in time began to understand little by little what the word son meant. Kenn for many years tought Demyan the stuff he would of tought if he had a son with his long lost wife.

In time Demyan began looking up to Kenn more than his creator, and he began to behave like any other human. Demyan even started picking up a few things from Kenn about invention.

One night Kenn left and told Demyan to wait home for him since he was going out to collect another part that would finish Demyan's human side making him able to think like any other human. When Kenn got the part from the buyer he had to walk dangerous streets of Zaun. Kenn had thugs surround him when he approached a corner at the street. Those thugs stole the one thing that Kenn was trying to build for so long. Family.

Kenn laid on the floor unable to move after the thugs injured him and stole the part he tried to protect so much. Another day comes and Demyan notices that Kenn still hasn't returned so he goes outside in the streets of Zaun to look for him. He found him, but he was too late.

Demyan had a journey planned to Piltover where he had his father's friends informed of the death of Kenn. Preparations were made for Kenn to be barried next to his family.

Demyan not knowing what he should do next since he had no one else. He remembered what his father thought him to do, invent things.

So Demyan became a secret inventor in Piltover who would put his inventions in his father's colleagues offices to help people's lives feel safer and better. And most of the time if he's lucky he's inventions would go through and of course no one would know it's Demyan's creations but Demyan never craved glory and fame, he just wanted for no one to loose what he lost in Zaun.

He would sometimes visit Zaun to see if he could do something like he does in Piltover but knowing Zaun's history the posibilities of this happening are less than possible.

#Champion Abilities

Passive - Tweaking and Experimentation

##Cooldown: 250 / 200 / 150 ##Tweaking Duration: 7 Seconds.

Passive - When Demyan recalls to the base he has a special section in the shop where he can choose a part of gear he wants to tweak to be better. Demyan then has to make a choice and if he decides to enhance his gear then this passive goes on cooldown.

The chosen gear that Demyan enhances will improve one of his abilities based on the gear he decides to make better and will stay that way until he decides to enhance another part of his gear.

When Demyan begins the tweaking he will require 7 seconds to finish the enhancement.

There is no cost for Demyan to enhance a part of his gear better.

#Q: Critical Spot ##Cost: 50 / 55 / 60 / 65 / 70 Mana ##Cooldown: 15 / 13.5 / 12.5 / 11.5 / 10 ##Range: 1000 ##Scanning Duration: 1.25 ##Mark Duration: 2.5

Active: Demyan scans target or multiple targets that are within the cone area for 1.25 seconds and finds a weak spot, when he does the targets are then marked and if they are basic attacked by an ally or if an ability hits the target, they take either additional physical damage or additional magic damage based on type of damage the market targets take. In addition when enemies are hit in their weak spot they get slowed.

##Slow: 40% ##Slow Duration: 1.5

This ability can't be canceled unless the target walks out of range or if Demyan is attacked, affected by any crowd control effects.

Tweaking and Experimentation Effect: With the Tweaking and Experimentation enhancement the damage from Critical Spot can be applied 2 times to each enemy marked, in addition the mark duration is doubled to 5 seconds.

Max Damage: 85 / 125 / 175 / 200 / 225

Tweaking and Experimentation Enhancement Max Damage: 450

#W: Reverse Energy Barrier ##Cost: 40 / 45 / 50 / 55 / 60 Mana ##Cooldown: 15 / 13.5 / 12.5 / 11.5 / 10 ##Energy Barrier Duration: 3.5 seconds ##Range: 650

https://giphy.com/gifs/l1J9HNYy4NwPRdU0o/html5

Active: Demyan create's an energy barrier in a chosen area. Demyan and an his allies can be inside this barrier but enemies can't enter as well as if enemies attempt to attack allies that are within the barrier they will take damage instead and will reflect half of the damage that they deal. The Energy Barrier's Strength scales with maximum amount of mana that Demyan has.

Energy Barrier Strenght: 85 / 100 / 125 / 150 / 175 [25 per 200 mana] Maximum Energy Barrier Strength: 500

Tweaking and Experimentation Effect: The damage that get's reflected back to the enemy attacking the ally is now full damage that enemies deal to the ally. The reflection damage cannot critically strike meaning If the enemies attack critically strikes half of the damage get's reflected, but on-hit effects apply to the reflection damage.

#E: Electrical Disruption ##Cost: 50 / 55 / 60 / 65 / 70 mana ##Cooldown: 15 / 13.5 / 12.5 / 11.5 / 10 ##Range: 950 Active - Fires a bolt of electricity from his gear around his hand in a line that if hit an enemy disrupts them from the inside that causes them to take magic damage over time for 2 seconds, that also silences them. If an enemy has been scanned and Demyan lands his Electrical Disruption bolt then the target instead of being silenced gets stunned instead and the mark becomes consumed but does not apply the Critical Spot Damage when he does this.

##Silence Duration: 1 / 1.25 / 1.5 / 1.75 / 2 ##Stun Duration: 1 / 1.25 / 1.5 / 1.75 / 2

Tweaking and Experimentation Effect: When a target is struck with Electrical Disruption with the Tweaking and Experimentation enhancement they have all of their abilities go on cooldown for 1.5 seconds and if any other enemies are within 400 range they gain the same effect. If a target who already has cooldowns on their abilities, the cooldown of 1.5 seconds get's added to their current cooldown.

Magic Damage Over Time by 2 seconds: 75 / 125 / 175 / 225 / 275 [50% AP]

#R: Enhancement of the Living ##Cost: 100 Mana ##Cooldown: 100 / 50 / 25

Demyan enhances one targeted ally that resets all ability cooldowns except for the ultimate ability.

#Gameplay

Note: Demyan is a champion that relies heavily on Mana and Cooldown Reduction to be useful. His kit isn't designed to be a scaling mage support who deals damage on his own but to enhance his allies damage and to disrupt enemies.

Tips: Rush to max cooldown reduction, and build items that give you lots of mana.

Recommended Summoner Spells: summoner 3 summoner 4 (Demyan's kit work's well with Exhaust in particular)

##Recommended Build: item 2301 item 3102 item 3003 item 3146 item 3165 item 3158

Explanation on the item choices:

  • item 2301 Eye of the Watchers - Mostly for the vision, but the Mana Regeneration is good too.
  • item 3102 Banshee's Veil - For the useful passive shield (self protection against poke and heavy engage on him), ability power and the Cooldown Reduction.
  • item 3003 Archangel's Staff - This is really useful if you want your W Reverse Energy Barrier to scale better, the extra mana is also good.
  • item 3146 Hextech Gunblade - Synergises well with your Electrical Disruption that together combined, slow the enemy champion as well as disrupt them causing all of their abilities to go on cooldown that can give time for your ally to get away or for them to get a good engage on the enemy.
  • item 3165 Morellonomicon - Mainly for the passive where kills and assists restore 15% of your maximum mana.
  • item 3158 Ionian Boots of Lucidity - To have lower cooldown reduction on summoner spells.

##Situational: item 3157 item 3069 item 3048 item 2045 item 2138

Explanation on item choices:

  • item 3157 - If Banshee's Veil isn't enough and the enemy engages on you first.
  • item 3069 - If the enemy team has a lot of mobility.
  • item 3048 - This can be an item in the recommended build because of the massive mana pool + the shield.
  • item 2045 - If the build consists on a lot of actives this item has a nice passive where it lower's 20% of cooldown on active items directly + the 500 health is always good.
  • item 2138 - This is useful if enemies have a lot of crowd control abilities since it gives 20% to tenacity, in cases like this you can sell item 3158 for item 3111 instead since they will be a lot more effective.

I really love the concept here! This is the kind of champion I would love to get my hands on. His lore is rather simple but that gives him a nice core motive with room to grow. I love the visual concept he seems to pull. I could see him having an amazing in game model as well. Most of his kit is also pretty fun and really different. I don't know many champions with most of these abilities and he really offers this different power set for the support role! Now I do have some worries about the kit so I'll touch on them right now.

First his Q could be a problem depending on how it functions animation wise. If it's like Annie's W then it could be somewhat problematic but I believe you thought that through well enough in the concept here where it won't be too much of a issue.

Next issue for sure is E. This ability is REALLY good. The augment of it on paper will just look like a must majority of the time due to it's raw power. I think a 2 second silence or stun is pretty strong but it is a skill shot so it's not the worst thing in the world. I do think it has a little too much power so yeah.

Finally on his ultimate. Frankly speaking, I don't really like this ultimate. I think it is just a little too basic and stat checking for an ultimate ability. The champion is cool but his ultimate is so basic especially when you have the potential of his passive being able to really change things. Even if he had something like Ana's ult from Overwatch where he augments one person and the passive store allows him to change that augment then I think this could be a lot cooler.

Love the idea overall though! Good work!

Interesting champ.Take my upvote.You deserved it!

MorsCertum9/14/2017, 11:16:58 PM2 votes

Ok, so my opinion, very cool design, visually and ability wise, i'd definitely give him a shot if he got released, my only problems are:

  1. I feel like his mana costs for abilities are WAY too high, typically only ultimate abilities ever cost 100 mana per cast and as a support you're going to be spamming those things to protect your ADC in lane and team fights.

  2. I hate to be the killer of dreams because I do like his design, sadly though i can't see him ever being implemented in the game because its almost like The Donger Heimerdinger and Robo Man Viktor had a cousin. Demyan is a mad inventor, kind of a theme in both of the other champs, and his ult upgrades an ability (which is the same as heim's ult, and granted its a one time use and not temporarily permanent until you change it like Demyan's) and Demyan's ult is a passive you use in the shop to upgrade his other abilities which is Viktor's item passive (again a one time use v.s. a temporarily permanent upgrade you can change).

TL'DR: I don't think hes different enough to be viably created into a new champion, however i do think hes on the right path and i'd love to read his lore.

I really like the concept of your champion even as a non support main. He has a Rakan like feel, with the meaning of being a support which doesnt feel boring for people who dont like playing sup. On his Q you wrote he scans enemys in a cone but it can be cancelled when the enemy is untargetable. So is it a point and click ability or a cone "skillshot"? I dont quite get that. And an idea for his E, or rather the upgraded E.If he hits his normal E he silences and does damage. But what if the upgraded E, when it hits, doesnt silence but gives everyone in that area 2 Seconds Cooldown on all there abilitys, so lets say enemy Q is ready, after E hits, its on a 2 second cd, and enemy W is on a 5 seconnd cooldown, it rises up to 7 seconds.

His lines to Ori hurt T-T... but great champ...

Ndelok Rojo9/14/2017, 8:03:50 PM1 votes

This is a cool character concept, and I'm especially fond of his visual design. I was wondering though if, you had any lore. When is comes to his mechanics I like most of it, though I would like to see his passive grant a small bonus other then not spend mana, just somthing like bonus damage or crowd control. His ultimate, to me is to reminiscent of Heimerdinger's, so I personally would like to see it revamped. One last thing on his mechanics though, and I'm assuming there's a fine reason for why there's no "W" spell. Just wondering about that. So my over all feelings on this champion are positive. Keep up the good work! God bless! NdelokRojo

TheZacStreetBoys9/14/2017, 8:29:49 PM1 votes

I'm gonna give an honest review here.

His passive isn't TOO interesting IMO. It's essentially a Lissandra passive you choose to activate.

His Q is pretty interesting and clever. I do like the idea of setting up your next basic attack or ability to crit.

His E seems extremely powerful, and a bit convoluted. Instead of putting all abilities on a 2 second cooldown, it would be easier to just silence them for 2 seconds instead of one. When upgraded with his ult, it suddenly becomes a 5-man 2 second stun. Now, that's a multi-hit stun for as long as Morgana's level one ROOT!

His ult, as others have said, is quite similar to Heimerdingers. His kit revolves around increasing ally damage, so maybe his ult could temporarily augment nearby allies' stats?

And I don't think his W should have any kind of cc. He already has enough of that in his kit.

Despite all this, I think this is a great concept, and if you put some time into tweaking things, it would be amazing!

Also, as others have said, some lore would be awesome! We don't know about the context of these quotes, please elaborate <3

Edit: If you're one of the CCOS guys reading this review, please note that the concept I reviewed went through many changes after I reviewed it, so some of the things I said are out of context now.
