Yeah, I know that the rest of the kit doesn't make much sense. I was pretty tired when I put it together.

The ult wouldn't be as counterproductive as it seems, though. It's a 0.5 second silence on casting a spell. What it does is stops someone from very quickly executing a combo, and from channelling, though I might make it so that it doesn't interrupt channels.

I had originally considered a windwall like thing on her W, where it blocks the first spell projectile and steals it. Thing is, that would be incredibly hard to use, and would be entirely useless against some champions.

What I want to have is a champion who is:

1) Hard to burst down, while still being squishy as hell in relation to autoattackers.

2) Punishes spellcasters. A lot of her damage at the moment is triggered by her opponent casting spells before or during her usage of abilities.

3) Doesn't have much burst by herself. The trouble with champs like LeBlanc and Kassadin is that their basic pattern is to kill someone during the duration of a silence, which makes them very effective against anything that's squishy. I don't want this champ to be like that, she's supposed to be sub-par against non-mages. This iteration has her as an autoattacker, though I could also make her a spellcaster dps.
