The passive... Take it as what Lancer has as its innate abilities. The reference from this is from fate/stay night, and i really want to put all those skills in... But in return, i put in handicapped mana cost(mana items are only 50% effective) so he cant really spam and must think what skills is best to utilize in different situations...

I used target lock as i needed something to use for his ultimate... Again, its the reference from fate/staynight and that skill is actually an instant kill skill. I actually toned it down as much as i could... but i still feel its very op :D.

I had to boost the summoner spells because... Its the reference from fate stay night. This champion is actually controlled by a "master" in the fate stay night series. The "master" can provide mana to the champion as long as he has a 'contract' with him. This gives the "master" 3 command spells that gives absolute orders to the champion if the "master" wants something to be done(for instance teleportation to somewhere).

I really wanted to pull this reference over so i put it over there that u can only use the summoner spells 3 times. But the effects of the summoner spells are buffed in return for that. Also, the 'contract' breaks when the 3command spells/summoner spells are used, hence the fixed mana regen is gone(the "master" no longer provides it). Instead, it gains mana consume. Again... mana consume is reference from the fate stay night series XP.

for the Q skill its more like using the lance to quicky stab the target(its purpose is to put the target locked on the enemy).

For the W spell since its piercing spear armor penetration instantly came to my mind... But i know how op darius was with its pasive armor pen so i toned its active down alot by 3 hits only. I will tone down this even more.

Disengage is a high jump to escape. It can be sort of like tris's jump, but lower and faster.

The ult... I dont want two ultimates to be casted on the same target... Its a sure kill otherwise...

I thought it would be good to require the buff disengage since the ult( from the fsn reference), he always jumps to get a distance then shoots it. I will think more towards this if i have the time...

I knew there was a danger of its complexity since i was jabbing all the skills in it, but i insist on keeping it that way to stay true for the reference and this champion.

Thanks for the comment, really needed another opinion to widen my view :).
