Lore:

Skadi is the godess of Winter and Snow of the norse mythology. She is the daughter of Thiazi, who was killed by the norse gods. To get her compensation, she asked the gods for 2 favours. First Skadi wanted a husband and second she wanted them to make her laugh. She then was allowed to choose her husband only by looking at their feet and Loki made her laugh with... weird things with a goat.. something with his testicals.. don't ask..
Well, after all Odin, the allfather, took the two eyes of Skadis father and threw them into the sky, making them stars.

Passive: Quite original, i must say
Remove the scaling enemy gods grant and reduce the amount of protections loewred by freidnly gods to 5.

1: Venom Strike
I think it's too powerful, considering the intial damage which is almost like 's and the dot after that and the final level cooldown of 10 seconds.

2: Laughing Miaden
No problem here, just forgot the duration of buff/slow

3: Friost Feet
Similar to but I don't think that's a problem.

4: Father's Eyes
Damage per tick (30 without the % bonus damage added from physical power)x(duration-5/0.1=50)=30x50=1500 damage without the bonus of the precentage of youyr physical power. That's too poewrful, remember, she's a hunter, not a mage.

I'd suggesst making it so that you can see everything from all lines of sight for a certain duration thanks to his eyes and nerf the damage. Plus the way you target the enemy god should change, you can't just choose an enemy god and inflict them 1500 damage without any way of dodging it except (neith ult is similar indeed but you can try and avoid lines of sight or body block it, athena ult you need to stand near it).

Some nice idea here and there, just remember that she's an ADC, her main damage is from here basic auto attacks.

Valid points here!

Well the passive was designed to make her passive a bit more useful in 5v5. I have to think about a better scaling. Maybe I gonna remove the enemy effect, gonna think about it ;)

I rescaled my 1 a bit, it wa too much damage in total. I increased the cooldown and lowered the overall damage.

Well Apollos dash knockes them up. I scaled the damage up a bit because I wanted her to have another damage ability, but she has to screw her escape for it.

Yeah, kind of misscalculated the Ult. It should be better damagewise now. Also I'm thinking about changing the targeter for the damage. Maybe something like freyas ult from the height of Thor's ult (you controle the eyes directly). Gonna edit it this evening ;)

Greetings and thank you for the comment =) Keep it coming

Actually now that I think about it you can make your ult kinda like ne zzha's, in the sense that you take an enemy god to the skies and let y our father observe him and do stuff to him.

Mh, I wanted to create smoething new. Maybe a winter storm that threws Skadi up to the eyes of her father from where she can do basic attacks (with some damage bonus) to a groundtarget in the size of.. Freyas Ult or sth.

I kind of like that idea. The eyes are for the damagebuff on her basic attacks and the missing fog of war. Gonna change it. How do you like the new Ult?

Not everything has to be directly from the lore, you know. For example, you never see Hercules becomes stronger the more damage he takes in the myths, but that's become his signature trait in this game.

Yeah I don't have to, but I like iot a lot! Her "frosty feet" are only in the lore because there are "feet" in it^^

I like gods who are 100% Lore thou :)
