We could use a shapeshifter

I really like that mirror in black market brawlers, but I thought it could be on a shapeshifter champion instead. I have no idea what the rest of the abilities should be, but I know what the ultimate should be.

(R) Copy cat: (blank name) copies the form of a target ally for 30 seconds. During this time (blank name)'s ultimate copycat is temporarily changed into the ultimate of that ally champion. (if (blankname) copy's a champion with transform abilities, then the ultimate copycat will be replaced with the most powerful damage dealing ability on their kit instead)

This particular champion should have multiple buildpaths and be able to tank or deal damage as needed based on whom they wish to copy. The draw back for this champion (or strength) is that their own ratios decide how powerful that ultimate is and not their ally's.

I also think this character should just take karma's fans already. They are gone forever we may as well put them on another champion and make them useful. I thought more along the lines of a kabuki character. Yes, I want more masks.

Mimicking ults sounds like a really hard thing to balance. Consider: copy mumu, perma snare the enemy team for 5 seconds, which pretty much ensures they all die. Or taric, double the invulnerability period. Zilean, revive 2 people. This skews team composition to make the most of the ability.

I like the first half of the ult, mimicking an ally like the brawlers item. That was a lot of fun by itself, and I think it would make a great ult for a tank character, obviously one who resorts to illusion magic or some sort of body-double body guard. I would suggest it have no expiration time limit, but taking any offensive action removes the illusion.

Not really sure how fans would fit into any of the theme for the character though.

No one knows what a kabuki is? OK. Here.

https://www.google.com/search?q=kabuki&espv=2&biw=1242&bih=641&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj3mMz2kbLMAhWGwYMKHVVuDXkQ_AUIBigB

The more you know.

Also how could anyone care if having a second teamwide stun is terrible balance when we can pretty much already do that, Amumu and Leona, Taric and Kindred, Kayle and Zilean. (ok maybe Zilean is very unique, but its not game breaking.)

Also I now know what the rest of the kit should be.

Passive- Cheer: Kabuki increases the highest stat of an ally for 2 seconds by 5/10/15% everytime s/he casts an ability on them.

Q- Karma's old fans: (I don't have to explain what they do)

W- Spotlight: Kabuki for 3 seconds increases his/her armor and magic resistances by 20/30/40/50/60, after 3 seconds it bounces to the nearest ally and they get the buff for 3 seconds. (this can occur up to 3 times)

E-The reversal: Kabuki instantly jumps to a target ally and becomes invisible for 1 second, after s/he is revealed the ally becomes invisible for 1 second.

R: The ultimate is the same

This character is a support that can fill any role you give him or her.

This character would only have 2 damaging abilities. Balanced enough for me.
