Brainstorming: A Harpy Support Champion designed to help teammates make picks/snipes/etc.
While some supports like Janna, Leona, Blitzcrank and Thresh can help you annihilate a select target, I don't feel they really specialize in making picks for your team (besides Blitz). Now, this is all just in the brainstorming phase, but I am looking into making a Champion that is all about isolating an enemy Champion and letting her teammates snipe it before its allies can save it.
NOTE, however, that this is not meant to be another Kha'Zix. This Champion's kill power would not be very strong. But if teamed up with a Kha'Zix, oh boy, the kills that bug will get...
I have some basic skills at the moment, as well as a name and art direction for this Champion, but it's still under development, so expect changes.
Deneb, the Harpy Matron

Abilities
(remember, these are all in the prototype phase, so nothing is final)
P – Weird Touch
Deneb’s basic attacks inflict a slow on enemies they hit. This slow cannot reoccur on the same target within X seconds.
Q – Dark Feather
Deneb fires a skill shot that detonates on impact with an enemy, dealing magic damage over time and Blinding enemies hit. If Dark Feather only damages one target the target takes bonus damage and is also Silenced for the duration.
W – Eldritch Curse
Deneb places a curse on target enemy Champion, dealing magic damage over time and decreasing its armor and magic resistance for the duration.
E – Hurricane
Deneb creates a large ring of wind at a target location. This ring damages and slows enemies who pass through it (ala Veigar's Event Horizon); can only deal damage once per target. If a target affected by Eldritch Curse touches the ring, it stuns the target for a short time.
R – Implosion
Deneb fires a skill-shot in target direction. If it hits an enemy Champion, it stuns it for 1.25 seconds and explodes, damaging all enemies in the blast radius and knocking all secondary targets away from the primary.
Background (rough)
Deneb is the Matron of the Blackwing Harpies, the original denizens of Mount Targon who were annexed centuries ago by the first Rakkorians. The Harpies have ever since been bitter enemies of the Rakkorians, continually raiding their villages and farms to try and drive them to extinction. But the Harpies numbers have dwindled over the years, and they are no closer to driving out their adversaries.
Deneb herself is a powerful Harpy witch whose only daughter was slain during a raid by Pantheon. Vowing revenge for the loss of her chick, Deneb learned of a powerful spell that could "scorch the sky", something she knew would give the Blackwings the edge they needed to finally annihilate the Rakkorians. However, she knew she would never be able to obtain the items she needed for the ritual herself.
Seeking an answer, Deneb came across a silver-haired Rakkorian in unique armor and wielding a curved blade: Diana. Learning of Diana's quest against the Solari, Deneb told Diana of the spell. However, Deneb only revealed to Diana that the spell could "block out the sun", not that it would "block out the sky". Though Diana was untrusting of the Harpy witch, the offer was too tempting for Diana to turn down, and thus she agreed to help Deneb with her spell.
Deneb now prepares for the ritual, as well as preparing her own revenge on the Rakkorians' Champion, Pantheon.
Sounds like this could become something? If you have anything to suggest with the skills, feel free to suggest, but please be civil.
