#General Info Meet Zhonya. Because time-traveling ninjas.
Zhonya is a terrifying roll up of crowd-control and high mobility. With abilities to sweep your enemies off their feet and keeping you and the battle moving, Zhonya is a powerful addition to a team. Using her Q: Roundhouse Kick is one hell of a way to keep your enemies off your toes, and knock them into your team, or even away from your team. If Zhonya finds herself in a bit of trouble, W: Hidden Escape will make you disappear faster than Malzahar's chances of not being banned in Ranked Draft after 6.9, or can even be used to snake through the enemy to deliver a dangerous combo with your Q to knock them in a specific direction. An enemy giving you trouble? Easy. Your W: Flying Kick allows you to quite practically throw yourself at the enemy and slam them against the wall, locking down the target running away. Like all of her dash abilities, they can go through impassible terrain, so quick escapes over walls are never a problem for Zhonya. Her ultimate ability, R: Paradox Triplets is a horrific threat to the enemy team once they see not one but three Zhonya's charging in their direction, each clone copying her abilities, not acting on their own but mirroring each of Zhonya's actions.
While making Zhonya, I was at an impasse as what to make her into. I had a realization that, if one were to make a concept for her, most likely Zhonya would be an AP Mage sort of deal. With that, I decided to go the exact opposite direction and do the unexpected: An high-mobility AD Bruiser. I feel this was a unique twist on the image of the mysterious character Zhonya that has eluded their history throughout the game with items like Zhonya's Ring and Zhonya's Hourglass.
#Lore A horrific, alternate reality.
Zhonya hails from an alternate future in which Brand
fufills his ambition to cover the world in flames and ashes. In this timeline, most major populations of the world have declined; Demacia and Noxus fell on the same night. Ionia was one of the last nations to fall. Evil, terror and devious beings roam Runeterra, where little to no civilization remains.
Zhonya, one of the last remaining Ionians, fought side by side with her brothers and sister as they fell one by one. With Brand's unimaginable power he has accumulated, there was no stopping him. After Ionia fell, Zhonya lived in an abandoned temple in the high peaks of the continent, fending for herself to live out the rest of her life. After a year of living in the temple, Zhonya discovered a hidden passage, leading down to a catacomb which held millions of scrolls-- ancient techniques once sealed away by her forgone ancestors. With this forgotten knowledge in her possession, she spent the next year scurrying through scrolls and scavenging for something that would help her battle the Burning Vengeance. Alas, she had no luck, that is until the last scroll was opened. Inside lay a forbidden time reversal technique, which for months Zhonya practiced, until one dawnbreak she got it, transporting her into the past.
Now, Zhonya hopes to face Brand toe to toe, before he can turn the world to cinders not unlike her own time. She will use everything in her power to bring him to heel, and nothing will stop her until her body lie lifeless.

"Does it hurt when I do this?"

"Watch your toes."
Zhonya sweeps a kick in a cone infront of her, dealing 60/70/80/90/100 (+50% AD) physical damage and knocking up enemies hit for 1 second and knocking them back. If they hit impassible terrain upon being knocked back, they are stunned for 1 second and take an additional 30/40/50/60/70 (+25% AD) physical damage.
If an enemy is hit by more than one Q: Roundhouse Kick due to Zhonya's clones from R: Paradox Triplets, they are knocked back an additional 100 units and take 40/50/60/70/80 (+25% AD) physical damage for each additional Q: Roundhouse Kick they are struck by.
#W: Hidden Escape Cost: 75 Energy Cooldown: 16/15/14/13/12 seconds Casting Range: 400 units AOE Radius: 300 units
"Confusing, I know. That's the idea."
Zhonya drops a smoke bomb directly at her feet, then becoming stealthed for 2.5 seconds and dashing in target direction. Enemies hit by the smoke bomb are blinded for 1/1.25/1.5/1.75/2 seconds and have 90% reduced vision while blinded.
#E: Flying Crane Kick Cost: 75 Energy Cooldown: 14/13/12/11/10 seconds Casting Range: 750 units Skillshot Width: 85 units
"I heard being kicked in the face hurts. A lot. Tell me what you think?"
After a 0.5 second delay, Zhonya flies off in target direction in a mid-air kick until she hits an enemy champion, dealing 80/90/100/110/120 (+75% AD) physical damage on hit and kicking the champion with Zhonya in flight. Zhonya continues flying until the range is over, E: Flying Crane Kick is re-activated mid-flight, or Zhonya and the struck champion collide with impassible terrain. If the range comes to an end or the ability is reactivated, the enemy champion is slammed on the ground, taking 50/60/70/80/90 (+25% AD) physical damage. If the struck champion and Zhonya collide with a wall, the target is stunned for 1 second and takes an additional 60/80/100/120/140 (+50% AD) physical damage instead.
#R: Paradox Triplets Cost: No cost Cooldown: 80/75/70 seconds Casting Range: 300 units
"You can't even handle one of me; how do you expect to uphold against three of me?"
Zhonya dashes forward, two future timeline versions of her fork out from behind her as she dashes. The future versions of Zhonya each have a different identifiable color, allowing both you and the enemy to distinguish between who is the first Zhonya. Each of her copies mirrors every movement, ability, attack, recall, and some summoner spells. Each clone deals 25% damage and has 50% of Zhonya's maximum health. The clones last for 12 seconds before disappearing. They will not act on their own, only mimicing your actions.
Activating this ability while Zhonya is under the effect of a jungle buff (including red/blue/dragon buffs) will give off the buffs to each of the clones as well. If your team kills the Baron Nashor or the Elder Dragon while the clones are up, they are also given the buffs.
