like an AoE stun or fear? or do you mean it has alot of hp, and taunts all the nearby targets?

Riot doesn't like traps all that much. It's very anti-fun to them.
If it's only on 1 ability, they can tolerate a little anti-fun such as Shaco's boxes, Teemo's shrooms, or in different cases Zilean's bombs having a delay on damage (that makes enemies cringe). This is because it's thematic and quirky.
But champions like
Vladimir bother them a lot because of how much anti-fun is on their kit.
Q for sustain, W for easy gank-ruining escapes, and R for delayed damage.
A trap-user champion would be the balance team's worst nightmare.

No, that's the definition of broken mechanics. When a single champion can only be countered by having the enemy also play that champion.
This sort of champion would either have be made severely underpowered, or completely reworked.
Past examples:
Kayle,
Evelynn
Vladimir was nerfed multiple times too, but his kit makes him a difficult problem child that can't be nerfed hard enough without it getting stupid.
Riot's explained in depth in a few posts that they DO NOT want another champion revolving around traps.
