Sorry, i don't mean any disrespect for the other champ. My inspiration however, also comes from an anime character, Kanna from Inuyasha (at least the idea of a mirror wielding girl).


 * Her passive is more of a limitation. For me, the number of abilities she can use in a quick amount of time should not only be limited by mana alone. The resistances part of her passive should give her a good boost while not using abilities, however, using an ability (even more so misusing one) will take away that bonus resistance giving windows for punishment. I do not know how to show that she has innately glass-like defenses other than her stats (which i don't know how to balance). (I tried lowering her MR to 25 tho)


 * I slightly changed her abilities to make it more mandatory for Kagami to hit enemies with Q.


 * I reduced the duration of W to make it feel more in line with the reaction-intensive shields (like Sivir's and Nocturne's) but I maintained the maximum damage threshold so that it may only reflect some burst damage not (for example) an entire Veigar ult and it gives the enemy team the opportunity to disperse the damage.

Most shields give no fair counterplay aside from the option of trying to dissipate it or not attacking it. I don't see Nautilus' or Lulu's shield's additional component (bonus damage) getting reduced as you reduce the shield.


 * I also changed E to make more sense  of the silence and now interacts with the theme "Shattering your opponents soul".


 * I agree that the ult is somehow bland, but i think it is impactful enough for a play. Yes it may seem like a Skarner ult (it even has a higher chance to fail) but the extra degree of freedom on its effects make it more worthwhile. It also allows her to execute a combo with ease. If you have an idea for an ult please share
