[Reworked Champion Concept] Reika, the herbal Alchemist (V 2.0)
I made a concept a while ago, but I was not really satisfied with it. So I reworked it alot and this is the result. I hope to get some feedback on this one. ^^
General Information: Subclass: Diver Origin: Zaun Role: Jungler Appearance: 23 year old girl with short hair (bob). Wears gloves with steam vents, a tube on her back. Design would be inspired alot by steam punk, a gas mask is hanging from her neck. Alternative title: Reika, Zauns cure
Lore: "This city can't breathe. Because of something they use to call progress. But all I see is disease and suffering. Do you know the cultivairs in the depth of Zaun? They are the true beauty, the future of this city. I will show them that progress can be found in our own very root, nature itself."
Reika is a young alchemist, living in the districts of Zaun. Her father was working as a gardener for a chem-barons cultivair, her mother died many years ago. She got killed by the Zaun Gray, slowly poisoning her over the years. And so she found out what she wants to do with her life: helping people suffering the same disease like her mother. The clean air in the cultivair her father was working in and the beauty of nature found in this polluted city made her believe that she can find the answer by using natural ingredients. And so she became an alchemist and is trying to find a cure for this plague.
There are deliveries for chem barons and their cultivairs, bringing seeds of unknown plants. She is stealing these seeds with the tools she invented and researching.
Kit: Reika is supposed to be an AP scaling diver in the jungle, she specialises in dealing AoE damage and CC.
Passive: Herbology Reika is able to smite plants. When she does, she gets the same healing she would get for smiting a big jungle monster. At the levels 3, 6 and 9 she gets a point in herbology. Depending on the plant she smited, she can upgrade one of her skills with these levels (there is an interface like Kindreds but with plants to show this and which you already upgraded).
At level 12, she is allowed to upgrade her ultimate. She has to smite every plant once to do so. At level 15, she can smite every plant again and doing so will activate the effect Opus Magnum. The last plant she smited to upgrade her ultimate can be seen in the tube on her back (just a bit of eye candy ^^). Opus Magnum: All allies gain X health as a permanent bonus. Allies are regenerating Y% health per second while out of combat.
To not be bound to smite as much, she can get the plant stacks by destroying the same plant twice in a row with her auto attacks (so, killing a honeyfruit, finding another one and kill it too). But she still will get played mostly in the jungle in my concept, so just like Ivern I don't think it hurts that smite makes her job alot easier.
Q: Let off steam Reika is dashing in the targeted direction. When she reaches her destination, she will vent some steam dealing AoE magic damage.
UPGRADE: Blast Cone: Increases the range and applies a DoT effect.
W: Immune Defense When Reika gets hit by enemy champions or big jungle monsters 3 times, she gets a shield and her auto attacks are dealing additional magic damage for X seconds.
UPGRADE: Honeyfruit: The additional on-hit-damage is healing Reika for the same ammount as long as the shield is active.
E: Kinetic Gel Reika throws a puddle of kinetic gel in the targeted direction. Every enemy touching gets knocked away from the center (think: Ziggs W, but you don't activate it yourself, it triggers immediately if the enemy touches the puddle).
UPGRADE: Scryer's Bloom: Bigger radius and if the enemy is hit against a wall, he gets rooted.
R: Anesthetic Reika targets an enemy champion and throws an anesthetic at him. The enemy and every enemy in the area around him takes magic damage over time. There is a cloud growing from the center. If it reaches the borders of the AoE, every enemy inside the area will fall asleep (works as stun).
UPGRADE: Every plant once: Enemies are sleeping a bit longer.
Please share your thoughts on the concept. ^^
