Name: Wei Title: The Eastern master Alignment: Chaotic good Goal: The total annihilation of Noxus and Demacia Nationality: Eastern Wuju stronghold Age: (apparent) 29 Height: 5'8 Weight: 140lbs Hair: Long Hair color: Black with Azure tips Eye color: Azure Weapon: Flowing Dragon Sword Fighting style: Eastern Wuju Flowing Dragon Clothing: Scavenged Noxian and Demacian armor to protect the legs, torso, and off-arm. Shoulder and entire sword arm do not have armor. Beneath the body armor he wears the remains of the Eastern Wuju disciples gi.

Base stats: Health: 600-2000 Health Regen: 7 - 18 Mana: 400-1000 Mana regen: 8-15 Range: 125 Attack Damage: 60-110 Attack speed: 0.500+0-30% Armor: 24-75 Magic Resist: 32.1-53.4 Movement speed: 340


Skills: Passive: Eastern Wuju style: Azure Flowing Dragon Blade Converts 1000% of AD into mana and every 1000 mana grants one Flowing dragon blade. Wei's basic attacks deal 8% of his maximum mana as physical damage and can crit to increase movement speed by 30% for 1 second. Flowing dragon blades grant an additional 1% maximum mana as physical damage.

Q: Eastern Wuju style Flowing Dragon Combo: Azure claw/Azure coil/Azure flame Azure claw: Wei lunges foreward 400 units towards a target and basic attacks them. Azure coil can be casted for 1 second. Azure coil: Wei creates an azure binding shaped like a dragons tail which wraps around the enemy targeted by Azure claw and roots them for 1 second dealing 10/11/12/13/14% of maximum mana as physical damage. Azure flame can be casted for 1 second. Azure flame: Wei ignites his Flowing dragon blades and after 0.5 pierces them with his Flowing Dragon blades dealing 20/35/50/65/70+2% of maximum mana as physical damage per blade. Range of each part of the combo: 125, 175, 250 Cost:70 mana per cast Cooldown: 12 seconds starting at the cast of Azure claw

W: Eastern Wuju style: Flowing shield Wei projects his Flowing Dragon blades around him for 3 seconds and blocks 3/5/7/9/11% of damage per Flowing Dragon Blade. Cooldown: 20 seconds Cost: 100 mana

E: Eastern Wuju Style: Azure Spear Wei Fuses his Flowing Dragon Blades into one and creates a spear. His next basic attack deals 1/1.5/2/2.5/3% of his maximum mana per blade and gains 50/100/150/200/250 range. Cooldown: 14 seconds Cost: 150 mana

R: Eastern Wuju style: Azure ascension Wei catalyses his inner strength and ascends into the Azure Dragon state. While in the Azure Dragon state Flowing Dragon Blades deal an additional 0.5/1/1.5 maximum mana as physical damage, the mana cost of abilities is reduced to 0, and 10%(+2% per flowing dragon blade) of all damage dealt is gained as mana. Cooldown: 240 seconds. Cooldown starts when the effect of Azure dragon state ends. Cost: 10/8/6% of maximum mana per second


Lore: Amidst the bloodied and burning remains of what was once the Eastern Wuju stronghold stood a young man; Lithe and agile, swift as flowing water itself and as strong. In his hands were bloodied sword with a writhing beast inside the once gleaming metal and a research journal from his master, Azure. His eyes scanned the book as he looked for a "why"; Why had his closest friend Jin betrayed the Order to the Demoxian Empire? Why did he have strange powers? Why did his brothers and fellow disciples of Master Azure follow Jins betrayal? Why are the Demoxians trying to destroy Wuju? His masters journal was filled with strange images and incomplete figures that threatened to break what remained of his faith, descriptions and designs for abilities which were impossible with Wuju alone. Even a detailed method on Eastern Wujus secret technique; Azure Ascension. The disciple looked to his masters sword for some kind of guidance, something to show him that the world was still right.

The sword in the disciples hand hummed with evil power. It was tainted, that much was clear. Its normally bright blue glow was slowly turning black and the disciple knew he had to deal with it before his masters journal. The young man doused the blade in Wuju and gave true form to the creature within and brandished his masters bloodied sword in the first position of the Eastern Wuju style Flowing Dragon. He lunged foreward and slashed at the beast, leaving behind an azure wound steaming with black tainted power. The source of the infection, a strange figure shrouded in evil embedded in the dragons heart, became visible within the Azure dragons form. The disciple swept his blade towards the dragons heart and coiled his own Wuju around it. Seperated from its host the figure became completely visible; it was the image of a raven, black as ink. The source of evil exposed the disciple ignited his Wuju to purify the taint in flame. The flowing dragon fell defeated and dissipated, its essence retreating back into the sword. The disciple, tired but with his mind clearer after the fight realized that the beast was not some evil force; it was his masters living tattoo, sealed in the blade. He scrambled for his masters journal and began to pour over it with tears falling onto the pages.

"Today was the first day of this "emergency meeting" of the Four Masters of Wuju. Emerald, Quartz, Azure, and Crimson Wuju together under the same roof for the first time since the previous masters left us their teaching and left to stop the Demoxus empire from destroying Wuju. Master Emerald tells us he has been offered something called a "Rune" in exchange for teaching the Demoxians Wuju arts; He refused, and narrowly escaped with his life intact. Pity. Masters Quartz and Crimson seem concerned that Master Emerald survived - Their power is different than it was last i saw them. It feels unnatural, like they are constantly Ascended and not suffering the drawbacks of it. Their monasteries are close to Demoxus lands, perhaps they have accepted the "runes" Master Emerald told us about? Further investigation into these "runes" might be required, but i shall not be a slave to those blood thirty fools in Demoxus.

_The second day of this meeting was much more eventful! Master Emerald accused Master Qaurtz of accepting the Demoxians offer; Apparantly he found a regeneration rune etched into Master Qaurtz' chest. The Qaurtz Dragon is dead, Executed by Master Crimson and Emerald. Luckily i was able to study the rune, and Believe i can easily reproduce it or turn its power into a weapon... Perhaps it is time to accuse Master Crimson of betrayal as well. With tensions raised by the execution of Master Quartz i could easily Convince Master Emerald of the crime. I wonder what his rune could be? _

_The third day of this meeting was a disaster from the start. Master Crimson Accused me and to avoid being executed i was forced to humilate myself and allow them to conduct a thorough search of my body; They only saw my sects Flowing Dragon tattoo, nothing more or the Wuju infusion that gives the dragon life. I used their lack of evidence to accuse Master Crimson as planned. As i expected Master crimson bore a rune, but it was not the same kind as Master Qaurtz'! Instead of a single easily producable figure it was etched into his very heart, allowing his Crimson ascension to last indefinitely AND gave him the ability to create ghosts of himself! Master emerald would of missed it as i did, however he had cobbled together some kind of helmet which allows him to see the Wuju strength contaminated by Demoxian runes. I wonder if this is the start of a crusade? _ The fourth day has turned to bloodshed, and i write this with the last of my strength at the bottom of an damned well. I have attatched a hastily constructed rune and the flowing dragon for you. It will carry my journal, soul, and research to you. A Demoxian officer whose name i gather is "Beatrice" arrived as Master Emerald and i were sealing the souls of our brothers for travel and demanded she be given what the Wuju masters had promised; their bodies and souls. Naturally we refused, for different reasons but refused all the same. She was heavily augmented with spectacular runes, the most shocking of which was a transformation! It had a very eerie resemblence to Wuju Ascension and simply felt evil. The soldiers she was with were less augmented, but very clearly used the same regeneration rune that Master Qaurtz had. Between Master Emerald and myself we were able to work out the weakness of the runes; When destroyed, their effects were inverted. The soldiers were purified by Azure flame while Master Emerald fought that crow Beatrice. I tried to help, which resulted in.... Contamination. The flowing dragon is the living, ancestral soul of Eastern wuju; it is highly susceptable to infectious powers. It turned on me, and forced me to seal it into my sword. That crow took the opportunity to destroy my legs and toss me in this damned well. Wei, I have used my own soul to auger a rune onto the flowing dragon. Master crimsons ghost rune - my sword, based on your power, will be capable of becoming many. Wuju will allow you to control those phantom blades"

IMPORTANT NOTES: Wei has 0 AD; It is ALL converted into mana. His passive effects are treated as attacks so they do not benefit from guinsoos rageblade, and also do not benefit from lifesteal. Wei STARTS with one Flowing Dragon blade due to his base AD and base mana totalling 1000. His Q is his main source of damage and only source of CC. Wei is intended to be an ADC/fighter. His passive converts AD to mana at 10x value. Wei has a theoretical maximum of 10,000 or so mana. Wei is meant to be a hyper carry. Wei is meant to have a rocky early game but strong all-ins and scale linearly. Wei has a LOT of burst if he can reach you. Flowing Dragon Combo only has 1 second of CC and takes place over 3 seconds. "Azure ascension" based on super saiyan god super saiyan. His entire combo does a minimum damage of 70+27% maximum mana His entire combo does a maximum damage of (with 5000 mana) 350+47% maximum mana His flowing shield has the potential to reduce damage by 100% if he gets 10,000 mana. 6000 mana is generally where i see feasible meaning usual maximum would be 55% to 66% damage reduced. Due to runes reborn the general minimum is now 7000 or so.

He very well could be. I dont recall when the six samurai came out vs when yasuo began development... ... But Wei is not yasuo, and while i was theorying him i had Six samurai Irou in mind for the visuals as well as SSGSS vegito.

lol. I can promise you that the Six Samurai cards have been out for quite a while before Yasuo was released.

Yup! THats the idea; Hes meant to stack mana and there is no better item than muramana! Last night when i was finalizing his scalings i clocked him at 6600 mana with a full AD build. Muramana was giving him 110AD, so it alone gave him 1100 mana.

Chaotic good because he wants to wipe out all the remnants of an ancient evil to avenge his master and protect Wuju - even if some of the modern descendants of said evil are doing good things. Demacia is just as much an evil to him as Noxus is. which makes him chaotic good; willing to do evil things for the greater good.

Thats how conversions work, yup. AD is converted into mana at a value of 10 mana per 1AD; The only way i found to make a non-broken mana scaling champion was to cut additional scalings out ENTIRELY. It means he effectively has 0 AD at all times.

Skills: Passive: Eastern Wuju style: Azure Flowing Dragon Blade Converts 1000% of AD into mana and every 1000 mana grants one Flowing dragon blade. Wei's basic attacks deal 8% of his maximum mana as physical damage and can crit to increase movement speed by 30% for 1 second. Flowing dragon blades grant an additional 1% maximum mana as physical damage.

Ok lets see that guy has 60AD lvl 1 and 400 Mana so he gets 1000 Mana from lvl 1 and does 9% of that per Auto. 90 DMG auto at lvl 1 (NO RUNES)

Instantly broken. This before he even gets this item: item 3043 which gives him 1250 mana at which point the game is over because he starts doing more DMG than Yi.

Hell lets calculate a bit when he gets a 3 nice items with AD, AS or Mana on them like: item 3031 => 800 Mana item 3043 => 1250 Mana item 3153 => 400 Mana Lets say he is lvl 12 here => ~750 Base mana and another ~900 from base AD

We get 4100 Max mana on this freak. He now does 12% of his Max mana per AA => 492 DMG on auto (if it doesn't crit) but wait MURAMANA does 3% oh his current mana x2 in DMG so if he hits with Max mana => another 246 DMG from Muramana. So 738 DMG on a non crit auto. THIS WITH NO RUNES. Don't even try to bullshit me about running out of mana with Muramana. All you gotta do is get an essence reaver item 3508 for another 700 Mana and literally unlimited mana when combined with IE.

Hell with a passive like that I won't even need abilities to level everything on the rift 1vs9.

Just imagine how broken shit gets if you get transcendance on that champ.

item 3031item 3043 item 3153item 3508 item 3110item 3071

Thanks to that freaking 340 Base MS and his 30% MS for crit + black cleaver he has more than enough MS to outrun anything thats not Full crit Jhin, Udyr or Yisus.

He has: 2100 Mana (Champion at 18) + 5900 from the items (30AD from Transcendance thanks to excess CDR) So our guy with just 1 Rune calculated reached 8000 Mana. Thats 8xFlying dragon crap => 16% Mana as DMG on AA + 6% from muramana = 1760 DMG Auto. He has 400 extra HP from items so 2400 HP. He has 100 Extra armor so 175 Armor and 53MR. The best part however is how he has a 3 sec W that will give 88% DMG reduction on a 12 sec CD. Then he presses R to enter Weisus mode and gain another 12% Max mana as DMG per auto => 34% Max mana per auto => 2720 DMG auto.

So I play Weisus (have pressed my R) and there is this 5K HP Sion with 200 Armor in front of me => Q (400 range dash + AA) 2720, 2nd AA 2720, 2nd part of Q 1120 DMG then 3rd AA 2720 and 3rd part of Q (8x70 + 16% of 8k) 1840 I do an E for good measure (which does only 2% max mana more DMG than a regular auto) 2880 and Sion is dead. 14K RAW DMG (no runes besides transcendance involved) Takes me 3 sec to execute it. Doing the 400 range dash on an ADC will instantly kill them.

P.S I did not even calculate how MURAMANA will increase his AD based on his base mana ( 2400x0.02= 48AD => 480 more mana) combo was literally 180% of his Max mana so add another ~800 dmg to his 3 sec Slaughter of Tank Sion.

I had a long post where i talked about all your points and riot ducking ate it. Im livid.

Okay so let me summarize what the frag i said an hour ago;

  1. This concept was created before runes reforged.

  2. His level 1 damage is slightly higher because he scales differently than most. It can be slightly lowered as needed.

  3. Muramana might be a very high power spike but it is a power spike in line with a zeal item+IE powerspike (~6000g, which is 20 or so minutes) which is about when you would finish muramana to begin with.

  4. He cant traditionally crit. Instead of critically striking properly he gets 30% MS for one second, making IE a relatively worthless slot but still a viable choice.

  5. Due to his base stats he has 0.625 base attack speed at level 18. This is VERY slow. He would likely have an auto attack similar to ekkos where its fast at the start but has a long wind down, making canceling the end of the basic attack animation via skills an important thing.

  6. He doesnt benefit much from attack speed on items, given that his base ASP is very low. Its a balancing mechanism so that he doesnt get ridiculous - he does huge amounts of upfront damage, but all in all hes meant to be the same or slightly weaker than a marksmen.

  7. Your build wouldnt actually be 8000 exactly. 700+1250+400+700+400+400+2100+500 = 6450+1290 = 7740. Even accounting for the 15 AD we would get from taking the blue path (which is 150), it would only come up to 7890. Thats a 6 full item build and not one which has boots. Its also very expensive and lacks sustain or armor penetration. An average build would probably be around 7500, but thats a moot point since its still in the same ballpark. It would come down to playstyle; be a little tankier or have in combat sustain.

  8. The intended build is MEANT to be very expensive compared to a marksmen build. Hes designed to scale into the lategame and HURT a lot upfront.

  9. 8%+7% = 15% maximum mana dealt as physical damage. With his ultimate, this increases to 25.5%. 1184 (15%) and 2012 (25%). Numbers which are still in line with marksmen at the same point (750 two times a second is 1500 or so raw damage per second. And thats not counting energized effects)

  10. His ultimate costs 6% of is max mana per second. Thats about 17 seconds. He cant sustain it for long out of combat, but in combat he can probably sustain it through an entire team fight.

  11. His Q, his main source of damage, does; 15%+14%+420+14% over at minimum 3 seconds. so its ~45%+350. Its high, but its also over 3 seconds. A traditional marksmen will do similar amounts of damage over those same 3 seconds. (750*6 = 4500 damage in the same time span).

  12. His W is basically an auto attack reset with increased range, very useful and a must have for someone who has such low attack speed.

  13. Hes relatively squishy, or at least hes meant to be (he isnt meant to buy HP and armor. Youre right about transcendence being strong for sure.) His E blocking 77% of incoming damage for 3 seconds is meant to be a melee team fight defense so he CAN actually do his job and carry.


  1. Hes melee and still needs to walk up to marksmen. His items ARE expensive compared to theirs. If he wins lane and roams it SHOULD be about even at most stages in the game. Even if hes behind, his huge raw damage would keep him from being feast or famine.

  2. An ADC can shred a 5000HP 200 armor tank in about 7-10 seconds. Wei should be doing about the same or slower considering his Q is where the bulk of his damage comes from.

  3. Hes slow. Its a point of balance... He hits hard, in line with traditional ADCs, but he hits slow without using abilities, making him have something of a high skill floor.

  4. Im saying this specifically * Wei is a hypercarry who does similar damage to marksmen ADCs through a different means.* Due to his slowness and huge resource scaling (which scales with gold just like an ADC) he should be just about where they are at most stages of the game while at the same time having strong counterplay. Unless he gets penetration, his huge damage will be cut dramatically due to the time it takes to actually dish it out.
    He accomplishes similar goals to that of a marksmen ADC but is much slower about it, creating windows of opportunity for counterplay.

17)_ He is not hyper mobile. He doesnt get a whole lot of mobility items. his Q lunge is on a 12 second cooldown, reduced to 7 with 40% CDR._

  1. He doesnt benefit from traditional crit OR lifesteal. To get sustain on him you need a deaths dance - which is intentional.

  2. His base stats are in line with other melee ADCs. If i remember correctly i used Yi as a base.

  3. And the last of these non-reactive points; Ive created Wei to be an actual AD carry who PROPERLY scales off of mana and isnt broken because of it. At all stages of the game he does similar amounts of damage to ADC marksmen (of whom he is an analogue to) while being melee and having a relatively long cooldown mobility spell that isnt very far. He trades DPS for raw damage, and its reflected in his scalings and how slow his basic attacks are.

sorry, what? 1000% of AD as mana? so basically infinite sustain? that means an IE would give him 70,000 mana. thats 70 flowing dragon blades. which means if you max his W first, at max, its 11% per blade, which makes it 770% damage reduction for 3 seconds? am i missing something? did you mean 100% of AD?

I definetly like the concept though.

1000% is a 10 times increase. 100% is a 2 times increase.

70*10 = 700

Saying "Converts 10.0 of AD into mana and every 1000 mana grants one Flowing dragon blade." is even more confusing than 1000% Also, Wei has 0AD at all times. Like jhin and attack speed its converted entirely into something else, which is why this concept works balance wise.... He cant crit for a reason ya know!
