I know Ao' Shin has been in the works for a long time, so here are some ideas for the weather based dragon if you are still working on his kit.

Ao' Shin Auto attack range: Short-ranged projectiles Slow base move speed Top or Jungle Fighter / Tank

**Passive: Thundering spirit ** Ao' shin is less affected by slows and gains movement speed when he damages an enemy with his spells.

**Q: Dragon's gale ** Ao' Shin launches a ball of wind at target location [short range, tiny AoE] that deals more magic damage to enemies with a higher current health percentage, based on the difference between them.

W: Thunder scales

Ao' Shin charges his body for a short time, causing his next 3/5/7 auto attacks to deal bonus magic damage based on his missing health and heal himself for a percent of damage dealt. When Ao' Shin attacks, enemies near him are slowed.

E: Typhoon

Ao' Shin breaths a torrent of rain and lightning in a cone [small AoE] that deals damage and reduces enemy attack speed based on his AP.

R: Storm front

Ao' Shin turns into a tornado at target location [medium range] Enemies in the area [small AoE] are knocked away from the center, and all enemies moving towards from the tornado [large AoE] are slowed. During this time, Ao' Shin gains health regen based on percent missing health, armor, and magic resist. After a short delay, he can reactivate this skill to cancel his regeneration and reappear at target area [medium range, small AoE] in a lightning bolt, dealing damage and stunning enemies struck by it. Ao' Shin keeps the bonus armor and magic resist for a short time if he canceled his health regen. ** Recommended skill path:** Max W first. Put one point in E early on, but max it last.

Recommended build: Health with damage. Crystal Scepter or Frozen Mallet to slow enemies outside his W range. Abyssal Scepter to deal more damage while increasing his defense. Wit's end works well with his W, or Blade of the Ruined King if going AD. Spirit Visage is a must.

I just realized something... Yasuo's lore states that his master was killed by a wind technique, and that Yasuo was suspected because he was the only one who knew the technique. Ao Shin's theme is clearly wind, and he has a Chinese art style similar to Yasuo. I think he killed Yasuo's master Further support for this is Riot's statement after Ao Shin's reveal that "2 champions will be coming out before him", those 2 champions were Yasuo and Jinx, this would put Ao Shin 1 champion release apart from his rival, just like Rengar and Kha'Zix.
