Camille, the Steel Shadow
Overview:
Camille's abilities are already pretty clean, but there are a few elements in her kit that could both be made more thematic and tailored to more naturally fit into her playstyle - specifically, her Innate and Ult.
-
To keep Camille as a classy, precision-based, knife-legged hitwoman, these changes are tuned to support her preference for singling out her target of choice and setting up for clean, acrobatic kills. They also place more emphasis on her dependence on pre-fight positioning, further distinguishing her niche and giving players more reasons to appreciate her high mobility.
Her Innate still rewards her defensively for getting the jump on a specific target, and her Ult still helps her isolate her quarry, but now both put more emphasis on her martial abilities, cool zip-wires, and the aforementioned knife legs.
All values in blue are meant to give a general idea of the ability's properties, and are subject to change.
Class: Assassin

Camille analyzes the nearest visible enemy champion within 800 units over 3 seconds, marking them for 6 seconds if they remain visible for the duration. Damaging a marked target will silence them for 2 seconds if they have more AP, or disarm them for 2 seconds if they have more AD.
This effect has a 16/13/10 second cooldown (based on level).

After a 1.1 second delay, Camille sweeps her leg to deal 70/100/130/160/190 +
(60% bonus AD) physical damage to all enemies in a cone in the target direction, disarming herself for the duration.
Enemies hit by the outer half of the cone take 6/6.5/7/7.5/8% + (3.3 per 100 bonus AD) of their maximum health as bonus physical damage (capped at 300 against monsters) and are slowed by 80%, decaying over 2 seconds. Camille is healed for the bonus damage dealt against enemy champions.

She prematurely stops upon colliding with an enemy champion, stunning them and adjacent enemy champions for 0.75 seconds, while also gaining 40/50/60/70/80% bonus attack speed for 5 seconds.

(60% bonus AD) physical damage to nearby enemies, before returning to her initial location after 0.75 seconds.
If only one enemy champion was hit, Camille will grab them and grapple back upwards. After 1.25 seconds, she will drop them at her initial location and skewer them, dealing 75/140/205 + (60% bonus AD) physical damage and rooting them for 2 seconds.
