Ooh, someone other than myself to use a gold scaling. ^_^

The champion's okay, but they seem VERY... hit-and-miss. Bet is a very odd mechanic, given he gets gold win or lose; and I'd wager it's an example of a anti-pattern. As an enemy, for a whole minute you're not allowed to get a kill otherwise you basically grant the kill-gold to your enemy as well!

I'd propose:

So it becomes a timing-based skill, similar to Zilean, rather than something you place without thinking. As for the range, I would go as far as to say 1200 range. I can honestly seem him playing as a support/duo bot, simply because of how cheap he would be.

If you take me up on my W idea, then he's down to 1 damaging ability (although it's hard to call W a damaging skill unless you intentionally grant your enemy a kill...):
