[Champion Concept] Skat, The Paint Exploiter
Well hello! This is my 2nd Champion Concept ever. I'm very very new to this and I don't think I'm super creative, so any feedback to make this champion better is greatly appreciated. Also, this is long. If you don't have the time to read it all right now, I suggest you read it when you have the time. With that being said, lets get right to it. Enjoy!
#Skat, The Paint Exploiter
Appearance/Race: -- Yordle -- A ninja (color, black) -- Holds a paint bucket and a paintbrush
Lore: Born in Noxus, Skat was an evil Yordle. Unlike the other Yordles, he liked to stay alone and practice his paint magic. He got really strong and was feared by most people in Noxus. Skat, since he never really experienced war, didn’t know what impact he had. He was naive and thought his magic wasn't evil. Later during the time of the Ionian - Noxus war, he realized that what Noxus was doing was wrong and quickly left Noxus to Ionia. He couldn’t just physically leave since he was too valuable to Noxians. He painted a portal and teleported to Ionia. Skat disguised himself as a Yordle from Bandle City that got lost. Karma thought he was weak and was planning to keep him temporarily. The first day of training, Skat showed all his skills. He quickly became recognized as one of the strongest yordles in all of Ionia, tying with Kennen. Skat was at first, envying Kennen, and vice versa. They became friends soon, and rivals as well.
To Note Of: Skat uses mana Skat’s running animation has him flying on a sheet of ink Skat’s ranged autoattack looks like Azir’s auto attack without his soldiers. Skat does a little jump when coming out of his portal door. Skat’s melee autoattack animation involves him slashing with his paintbrush Skat is a mid laner
Base Stats: Attack Range (Melee): 125 Attack Range (Ranged): 515 Attack Speed: 0.615 Attack Damage: 57 Mana: 340 Mana Regen: 4.7 Health: 550 Health Regen: 5.0 Armor: 23.5 Magic Resist: 30.0 Movement Speed: 345
Abilities: Note: I know this is a little overloaded, if you feel so too, tell me in the comments
Passive: Color Each of Skat’s ability uses different color paint. His auto attacks are empowered based on the color of his brush. Q grants green, W grants red, and E grants yellow. Green auto attacks heal Skat. Red auto attacks slows. Yellow auto attacks grant a blob*. There is a cool down. Cool downs work like this; if I auto attack after using Q, then the green paint won’t appear after using Q for a while, and so on. Cool down: 15 seconds
Q: Stroke Passive: When below 20% of health, Skat gains an ink shield for 4 seconds. Whenever an enemy champion attacks it, parts of the shield falls a parts on the ground. If Skat picks it up, he gains a little bit of health. If an enemy walks over it, they gain movement speed for a few seconds and health, and the paint goes away for a while. Cool down: 30 seconds Active: Skat picks between 3 objects. A circle, square and a line. The circle gives allies and Skat movement speed, and slows the enemy champions. The square gives Skat bonus ability power, and deals damage over time to the enemy champions in it, as well as slowing them a little bit. The line stuns the enemy if they cross or touch the line. The enemy however, will not be stunned if they dash through it. Cool down: 16/14/12/10/8
W: Quality Passive: After every 4 abilities, Skat’s paintbrush drips and his next auto attack range is increased significantly and slows. Active: Skat’s next auto attack deals bonus AP. Last hitting with this move provides 10% cool down on this move. Cool down: 10/9/8/7/6 seconds
*E: Canvas Active: Skat places a blob of ink on the ground that deals magic damage until it reaches 2 seconds upon activation,when it stops doing damage if dormant. Skat is allowed to auto attack it. If Skat uses a melee autoattack on it, the blob shoots out and slows any enemy champion struck by it, dealing damage. If Skat uses a ranged autoattack on it, the blob shoots out and stuns any enemy champion struck by it, dealing damage. If Skat makes the blob hit a wall, it will turn into a puddle of paint and anyone who steps on it will be snared (If flashed through, like Ezreal’s E, will not be slowed. If jumped over, like Zac’s jump, will not be slowed). Blobs will disappear after 10 seconds and puddle will disappear after 15 seconds or if stepped upon. Maximum amount of blobs: 2/3/4/5/6. There is no limit to amount of puddles. Cooldown: 6/5.75/5.5/5.25/5
R: Portal Paint Active: Skat is able to create two doors out of paint (There is a range). If Skat walks through the 1st door, he will appear out of the 2nd door, and his cool downs on Q, W, and E are reset. Doors are available for 1 minute before going away, but disappear 5 seconds after Skat uses them. Enemies can walk through them. If an enemy walks through the door, the door will still be there. Only 2 allies (including Skat) and 2 enemies are allowed to pass through the door. Cooldown: 150 seconds/130 seconds/110 seconds
Play Style: Laning Phase/Mid Game: Skat is a mid-laner whose job is to zone off an enemy champion and deny them as much CS as possible. Skat doesn’t scale well with kills, so his job is to hit level 6 and roam as much as possible to get other lanes ahead.
Teamfights: In teamfights, Skat wants to try his best to AOE slow, AOE stun, or deal damage over time to his enemy opponents with his Q. Doing this multiple times can lead to pick off one enemy with his W passive, healing himself in the process. Skat can shoot out blobs of ink at a distance. Skat is relatively squishy, so he shouldn’t stay in the front. Instead, he should stay in the back, being able to apply some CC to peel off himself and an ADC.
Sieging: Skat can provide great sieging potential due to his ranged poke. Using a blob to attack from far is great, and the zoning from is Q is as amazing. His W passive works with towers, so it can be used to last hit a turret before running off.
Quotes: When picked in champion select:
- You picked the right side!
When auto attacking (Without passive): -I changed -I know what I did -Everything must be… perfect
When auto attacking (With passive): -The colors signify how you will be defeated! -Karma will have her way!
When using Q: -This one looks nice. -Easy does it… -Look at that!
When using W: -The evil shall be punished. -Take this! -Ionia at heart
When using E: -Where are you going to go? -The world is my canvas. What’s yours? -A true masterpiece! -Everything must be… perfect
When using R: -Annnnnnnd, I’m gone -That was easier than I thought!
Taunts: Ctrl + 1: (Blobs of ink spawn from the ground, and rise) Here are my weapons… what are yours?
Ctrl + 2: (Makes a blank canvas out of paint) What am I drawing? My victory!
Ctrl + 3: (Skat makes back up dancers out of ink) (Break dances with his back up dancers following)
Ctrl + 4: (Laughs)
Secret Interactions (MORE TO COME): When respawning: -Well, that didn’t work -I thought I chose the right path… -Some ideas just don’t stick
When taunting near Kennen (Ally): -Hey bud! You ready for this?
When taunting near Kennen (Enemy): -Best ninja wins! -Good luck bud, I’ve been practicing! -You... changed your ways?
When taunting near any Noxian (Ally or Enemy): -I’ve changed my ways, will you? -Once you see the damage you have caused, you’ll change. -Miss me? -And to think, you came all this way to stop me.
And that's it! I really like this Champion and I hope you do too. I understand that his kit is overloaded but it'll have to do for now. Again, any feedback at all will be so helpful to me, and will make my day. Thank you for taking the time to read this!
Ty again, SSBprashy
