(Champion Concept) Oban, The Acquisitioner

Summary

Oban is a Support/Mage with strong global capabilities that has a strong early game presence.

Passive - Evolution Matrix

Oban maintains a network with all his Battlecast Guardian MK4's. When Oban uses an ability it is cast-able from the nearest champion or tower that has a Battlecast Guardian MK4. The host must be within a 3000 radius of Oban for this ability to effect the host.

Note - Basically when Oban uses an ability the point of origin of the ability is the closest host of a Battlecast Guardian MK4 or himself, granting him semi-global reach with his abilities to assist other lanes if he roams a little.

Q - Purifying Beam

Cast Range - 700 Mana Cost - 55/60/65/70/75 Cooldown - 14/12.5/11/9.5/8 seconds

Fires a laser beam in the target direction, dealing 40/65/90/115/140(+40% AP) magic damage to all enemies in its path and another 40/65/90/115/140(+40% AP) magic damage to those hit over 3 seconds.

W - N.C.S.

Cast Range - 700 Mana Cost - 50 Cooldown - 12 seconds

Generate a Noise Cancellation Shockwave, first dealing 40/55/70/85/100(+30% AP) magic damage to all enemies in a 250 radius of a Battlecast Guardian host or Oban. After a slight delay the the shockwave is focused and fired again in a straight line for 40/55/70/85/100(+30% AP) magic damage. Enemies hit are silenced and slowed by 35/40/45/50/55% for 2 seconds.

Note - Enemies can be hit by both the short range aoe and the skill shot.

E - Battlecast Guardian MK4

Cast Range - 2000 Mana Cost - 60/70/80/90/100 Cooldown - 20/18/16/14/12 seconds

Oban launches and attaches an autonomous sentry to target allied champion or turret. The sentry shields the target's last 50/60/70/80/90(+20% AP)(+10% of the targets max Life) health and regenerates 10/15/20/25/30 life per 5 seconds for the host until its shield is destroyed. Battlecast Guardian MK4 will freely attack enemies in a 600 range of its host for 20/25/30/35/40(+60% AP) magic damage with every attack (the host must be in a 3000 radius of Oban to attack).

Note - This ability remains indefinitely until the shield effect is spent from absorbing damage. Its attacks will prioritize the champion targets of the hosts basic attacks and abilities (in that order). Damage for Battlecast Guardians on allied champions is credited to the host (killing a champion grants the host credit for the kill and an assist for Oban if he cast an ability using the host while in combat). Battlecast Guardians gain 50% of Obans bonus attack speed and can proc Oban's on hit effects.

R - Hextech Shackles

Cast Range - 650 Mana Cost - 100 Cooldown - 120/90/60 seconds

Fires a magically charged, heavy chain-link in a target direction tethering the first enemy champion hit to the the host/Oban. After 2.5 seconds if the shackles aren't broken the target is pulled to the host/Oban, dealing 200/250/300(+45% AP) magic damage and stunning the target for 2.5 seconds.

Note - The tether breaks if the enemy champ and the allied host/Oban are more then 1000 units apart.

Lore

Viktor has worked tirelessly to progress what he calls "the glorious evolution" but realized it would be much more productive if he had a trustworthy assistant to leave important tasks, such as gathering experimental subjects and important resources. It was for this role that Viktor had Oban "evolved" for

Oban was Viktors first willing acolyte and the second human subject of Viktors experiments. Not long after Viktors work on Oban was deemed complete (at least for the time being) urban rumors began to spread through Zaun of robots stealing anything from raw resources to sophisticated machinery, even kidnapping citizens off the streets, never to be seen again. If these robots were captured in their endeavors, they would self destruct before any worthwhile information could be gleamed.

Eventually they were followed to their maker, delivering their payload, Oban. He had become as cold and unfeeling as his master with a cruel mechanical efficiency in completing his work. The detective who reported Obans activities soon disappeared as well and any investigation into all related matters was dropped for fear of being the next victims. Once he stockpiled enough resources for his master, Oban joined him in the league to assist Viktor in his research and development.

"We are progress... the glorious evolution. The master reaches ever higher. Our time is coming.. we cannot be stopped" - Oban
