Florence, The Disgraced Swordsman

[quote=MyBloodisBlack][u][b][color=#ff0000]Lore[/color][/b][/u] "What drives a man loved by all to do something that will cost him everything, What is worth more to him than the honor of his own family, What is the one thing a poor man and a rich man will stand up for when all is lost - Pride" Florence was once a great swordsman, his skills became legendary and his wealth could rival any king of any land but he couldn't fight the one enemy that defeats all men in the end...Time, As he grew older he wasn't as quick as he was and hes blade didn't strike fear as it once had, It was clear Florence dueling days were coming to an end. But Florence couldn't bare the thought just stepping aside, his pride as a fighter would never allow someone such as himself to ever stand down and allow the next generation to surpass him and it was his pride that would ultimately bring his downfall, Florence turned to drugging his opponent or coating his blade in poison, He wanted to win at any cost to prove he was the greatest in all of Demacia, but it was only a matter of time before his antics were exposed. With Florence disgraced and his house now in the ownership of his daughter, He found himself exiled as a true warrior, his name no longer resonating in the halls of battle in the town and it was at this point he found peace in himself, no longer feeling the pressure of having to be the best, he was free to be the fighter he wanted to be, the man he wished to be for so long. Florence dons a mask to hide his face, his family name removed from his life and with only his blades in hand he seeks out to finally regain the one aspect he foolishly gave up for victory, His Pride as a duelist. [b][color=#ff0000]Information[/color][/b] Florence is a fighter/ Assassin based champion who exiles at attack speed in his battle Florence Passive is Cor Duellum, Florence converts 35% of his Physical Damage into Attack Speed and gains a 7.5% Life steal once his Physical damage exceeds 180 Florence First Ability (Q) is venenatae laminis, this ability can be toggled on and off anytime, Florence blades are coated in a poison that deals extra damage over a few seconds and can be stacked up to four times, whilst this Ability is on Florence will lose 10 mana per autoattack but will regain 2 mana per Minion Kill and 5 per champion kill/assist. Florence Second Ability is Volo essentia, Florence Lunges at his opponent then each Basic attack landed increases your Attack Speed for a short time. Killing a enemy champion refreshes Volo essentia cooldown. Florence Third ability is mile pugiles, this has a passive that grants Florence 1% to 5% Critical chance on all his attack and When activated can parry Physical damage back to your attacker, works against Champions, Monsters and Larger Minions. Florence Ultimate is transitu laminis, Florence will aim to strike down any champions in the radius of the attack and will also deal damage to any minions or monsters that are in the path between the champions, if any enemy champion is killed then transitu laminis cooldown will be reduced by 1/2[/quote]

[quote=Isolanporzellator][quote]converts 40% of his Attack Speed into Physical damage[/quote] So, I usually get up to an attack speed of around 1.5 as full-build adc. In this case, the passive would grant me 0.6 AD. Seems OP. Also, all his normal abilities only enhance his autoattacks. As he is melee (as assassin he is at least supposed to be) and he has no touch of a gapcloser or of CC to reach and shutdown his target, he would just be kited to death or ignored. A champion with more than 1 ability to support his basic attacks doesn't exist for a reason: Because he'd be useless. If I didn't mention before: He doesn't have poke, he doesn't have a farm/push-skill, he doesn't have sustain, he doesn't have gapclosers, he doesn't have CC - what should make anyone pick this champion? By the way, Q consuming mana per second costs pretty much nothing, even in a fight, better make it to something like: Consumes 10 Mana per autoattack, similar to [[Frost Shot]] His ult, assuming i got it right, seems somehow similer to [[Assault and Battery]], correct me if I'm wrong. Concluding this, you can counter this champion by walking away.[/quote]

[/quote] Thank you first of all for your response Isolanporzellator, I took all you had to say and made a few modifications to my champion which I can only hope you find better 1. I decided to lower the percentage on the passive to 35% and swap the physical damage and attack damage around which hopefully will make it fairer. 2. I have now added a poke to his attack under his Volo Essentia, the attack speed buff for each attack still applies 3. Hearing you talk about Frost shot I decided to impliment that into the mana cost a bit by indeed suggesting that it would be 10 mana per attack but to add a bit of fairness to a fighter I gave the ability a chance at some mana regen which isn't alot but should provide a longer fight. 4. I haven't seen Assault and Battery before (shocking I know) but his ultimate was to be like a stage up from Fiora's Blade Waltz, basically if all 5 opponent are in radius he would attack like a hexagon going right to left, the added bonus was if there happened to be minions to in the path he hit them too unlike Fiora who would have ignored them. Also like Fiora, he would attack 5 times so if you had 5 each opponent would be struck once and if there is only one in radius they would get hit 5 times.[/quote]

[quote=dragon00bicus]1. I feel that would make Volo essentia's attack speed buff unnecessary since you already gain a lot of attack speed. And i think you mean .35% rather than 35%. 100 AD x .35 = 35 AS | 100 AD x .035 = 3.5 AS | 100 AD x .0035 = .35 AS Cor Duellum also needs to be nerfed, HARD! Most of ADC's reach at least 300 AD late game and at least 200 mid game. 300 AD x .0035 = 1.05 AS With this in mind, you don't even need to build any AS items, you can just go pure damage making it possible to reach 500 AD. 500 AD x .0035 = 1.75 + your own AS. There's a 2.5 AS cap by the way. 2. Change the AS buff, why not remove the LS buff from Cor Duellum and add it in here? 3. A poison. 4. It's unoriginal.[/quote]

[quote=devdevil]Cool, so I wasn't the only one thinking that.[/quote]

[quote=MyBloodisBlack][quote=Alcasea] reminds me of fiora in all manners [/quote] Well considering he is meant to be Fioras father it would lol[/quote]

[quote=Alcasea][quote=MyBloodisBlack] [quote=Alcasea] reminds me of fiora in all manners [/quote] Well considering he is meant to be Fioras father it would lol [/quote] LOL. why not just make family members for other champs as well. i have annie in mind. she desperately needs a guardian other than her bear. (sarcasm) but honestly and not being rude, whats the point of making a champ based on another champ ? i mean would you like it if riot makes a champion that is a copy of an existing champ and saying that it is hi/her parent,brother or something?[/quote]
