(PSA - Ysard is a character in one of the newly discovered regions, Ixtal. She is a pirate who travels with her fleet to a mysterious jungle, where they plan to map, raid and steal anything they find.)

(Passive) "Ixtal Looting" - At 7, 14, and 21 minutes of the game, random treasure crates will spawn around the map. If your team gains vision of them, they will permanently be revealed on Ysard's mini map. These crates will always be visible to the enemy team, and will vanish after 60 seconds. If found by Ysard, they will grant her a unique upgrade to one of her basic abilities for the rest of the game.

(Q) "Bush-wack" - Ysard readies her canon saber, raising her attack speed by 45% for 3 seconds, and grants a decaying movement speed boost of +40%-15% for the same duration. Additionally, if Ysard successfully lands 3 auto attacks on the same enemy, the third hit will deal a bonus 50{+30% AD} and grant her a shield for half the damage, that will last for 4 seconds. {9 Second CD + 60 Mana}

(W) "Book & Quill" - {PASSIVE/PARCHMENT} - Ysard collects stacks of Parchment. Finding a loot crate will grant +100 Parchment, and hitting an enemy or large monster with the third proc of Bush-Wack will grant 2. Once Ysard reaches 100, it will reset to 0, but grant her additional Attack Damage and Movement speed. {ACTIVE} - Ysard raises the flag of her fleet, revealing the area around it for the next 11 seconds, and slowing enemies inside by 30% {35 Second CD + 80 Mana}

(E) "Barrel Fire" - Ysard deals 90{+60% AD} in a cone shape direction to all enemies inside, slowing the enemy furthest away by 20%. This deals 75% damage to minions and monsters. {9 Second CD + 75 Mana}

(R) "X Marks The Spot" - Ysard uses her mini map to pinpoint a desired area of 'treasure.' For the next 14 seconds, allies inside this area will be granted boosted attack speed, and healing from all sources, and will deal additional adaptive force to enemies inside the 'X.' {100 Second CD + 110 Mana}

LOOT CRATE UPGRADES-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Q - Each hit will grant back 5% of missing mana, and bleed enemies for 30% of the damage over 3 seconds. W - Parchment gain will increase to 10 per Q proc, and the flag will also reduce enemy attack speed + CDR for the duration E - Will slow all enemies, and deals 25% more damage on the initial blow {+60% goes to +85%}

Like thefatlazycat said, too random, without the treasures her kit is very basic and underpowered byte if she does manage to get all 3, she becomes incredible powerful.

At some points it could be impossible for her to even get to the treasure without wasting tp simply because of where it is placed, say in the enemy base or the other side of the map, if she then dies at even 20 seconds before the maps spawn she will have to run all the way from base to a random point in the map in less than a minute, and this doesn't even take into account that enemies can either defend it (laner + jungler) or they can use the minute she is gone to get a free tower LR objective.

honestly the kit has a few things that need to be addressed, the first is the passive which, while it works like a minigame, has too much RNG to be reasonably balancable, especially considering how much this will affect the flow of the game. The next glaring issue is the infinite scaling on the W, free AD and movement speed throughout a game mean she's going to scale very well. Overall the base kit looks fine, but the RNG and Infinite Scaling mean that the kit's going to have a lot of unhealthy traits from the start
