My first recommendation for you is to work on your formatting! You do a good job keeping him from being one very long paragraph, but each of his spells look like run-on sentences. Here is a great guide to formatting on the boards: https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/miscellaneous/YHPBc6k3-board-formatting-101

You can also look at lolwiki to see how they format spells and try to emulate it, that's often how I choose to do it since it is clear and familiar to many players.

On range measurement: you use yards, when the measurement used in league is in units! For reference, 100 units= 1 Teemo. You can look at spell ranges on lolwiki for abilities you think have the right distance and copy/modify those too.

Tallows kit: **1. Path of frost: **how do you want this to mesh with his kit? He doesn't seem to want to run around and past enemies, all of his spells are ranged and packed with plenty of hard cc already. This one feels almost like it was just added on to match his e. The basic attacks/spells stacking a root seems cool. But 3 to 5 seconds puts Morgana to Shane. Her dark binding feels like a death sentence and it only reaches 3 seconds at max rank. This goes up to almost double that

2. Q: is wolf dash a dash or a projectile? Why does it do extra damage to crowd controlled targets if it is likely going to be used as one of his primary tools to get the crowd control on them? The ad scaling also seems weird. Everything else scales with ap.

3. W: now if I said a 3 second root was long... This guy gets nearly a TEN SECOND fear. That's just... Insane. You either have a qss or you die if he hits you with it. You seem to have this issue on a number of your spells, huge huge huge durations and long cooldowns. That doesn't really feel great to play as or against. Always keep in mind the question: why would people want to play this, or have it on their team? Also I'm still not sure how you want him to play, so it's hard to get a grasp on whether his kit fits together.

4. E: Ah so this is his engage. The e into w combo seems... Brokenly potent. Just click on somebody and you have them locked down for damn near 15 seconds if you time your passive right. How do you play around this? What options does it provide him for interesting play, and his enemies for ways to play around him?

5. R: 90 second empowered state. Just... Why? Why so long? Why not just have him always be empowered at this rate? And what it provides is buffed versions of already extremely loaded and powerful spells. It's a cool idea, him turning into a wolf and becoming more powerful, but this needs major work before it could be considered cohesive.

I recommend going back to where you started here and nailing down what you want him to do in game. Not his lore, or character, but just from a pure gameplay perspective. Look at other existing kits to see what reasonable cooldowns and spell durations are, and keep in mind you can't just make him so reliable that he autowins fights. Look for places where you can trim the fat and add interesting mechanics and counterplay.

Have a nice day!

Full lore

Tallow the frostborn ,born in the frozen tundra of the feljord Tallow had to rely on his with to survive the harsh environment one day while he was out hunting he lost his way and came upon a vast carven leading into the snowy peaks the light was fast fading and he decided that it would be dangerous to stay in the cold tundra night and ventured into the cave not knowing what was in there he decided to stay only a few feet from the entrance in case he needed to make a hasty escape while he slept he felt as though the heat and life was being sapped from him and decided to go even further in to avoid the fridgid winds blowing near the entrance equipt with a hunting bow he made from the bones of a dieing wolf he noticed a faint light glowing in the cave moving in the shadows of the cave he came upon a stone alter which looked as if it had frozen and carved by the winds looking about the cave he saw nothing but 2 flame pillars burning an irridecent blue and an orb shaped relic with his weapon in hand he moved toward it feeling nothing not even the cold as though the room was a void possibly outside of time he figured it beats sleeping in the cold entrance and decides sleep near the alter that night while Tallow slept he visioned a wolf entering the cavern and walking towards the alter he was somehow floating above the relic watching what transpired the wolf brought in a rabbit and placed it at the alter sitting back and watching as the rabbit froze into ice and altogether vanish into the relic at that point his image decended to the front of the cavern entrance and the wolf dadhed into him emmiting a pulse as it howled Tallow shaken from ihs dream awoke to an empty alter frightfully looking about he cought his reflection in the ice walls of the cave his skin had the same as the flames which burned at the alter his breath was ice and he could no longer feel the warmth of his blood looking at his hand the blue surge couple only be his blood as though frozen his self but somehow alive he recollected his dream and found no evidence of anything coming into the cavern and decided to leave, at the entrance he realized he had left his bow but by the mere thought one materialized in his arms a bow made completely of ice , sturdy hard and tought drawing on the string he felt the hum and there before him stood a silver wolf howling before it returned to the bow Tallow grinned as he stepped out of the cavern rasing he head to new snowy day he was reborn.
