Few days ago i posted my WIP champion concept called Erizon, The Lone Wanderer. Even though i didn't got as much critique of advices as i thought I am sure I managed to balance him pretty well in the end. Story/Lore is done, passive nerfed, Q damage slightly adjusted.
Feel free to comment your thoughts about Erizon if he needs some balance updates. All critique is welcome

Story – In Shuriman Desert, close to the Tempest Flats there was a injured and ragged man without food or water, trying to find shelter. While he was limping through the desert he found a small wooden shack just randomly being in the middle of nowhere. His hope made him pick the rest of his strength and get to the doors. Before he could even get through it, the door opened. A single person was standing there in shadows. The only thing to be distinguishable was a long staff of a transparent blue color. As he was badly hurt he didn’t made it to the shack by himself and collapsed. He waked up after few hours inside the shack. As he was trying to look around he noticed that stranger sitting close to him, treating his wounds with substance unknown to him. The substance was emitting light blue color and treated his wounds way faster than anything he ever saw. ,,Here, have some water and bread. You need to get stronger before you leave.‘‘ the stranger said with calm voice, confusing the injured man. He started thanking the stranger for saving his life and begging him to stay at least for two days to what the stranger after some time agreed. He asked the stranger who he is and why he lives in this place. The stranger sat down and started talking. ,,So you want to know who I am then. Well my name is Erizon and no. I do not live here. We could say that I am just a wanderer. I have seen a lot. Demacia, Noxus, Mount Gargantuan, Freljord,Kaladoun, Zaun, Piltover, Bubbling Bog, even Ionia. What I am doing now is wandering through Shurima towards the Bandle City where I would like to stay for some time. Pitch a camp somewhere close if I will be able to get there.‘‘ Then he just points to his staff leaning against the wall. ,,This is very special staff. It weights almost nothing, it is transparent and comes out from this.‘‘ he says and cries out a single tear of the same color, emitting light and transparency. After that he makes few moves and the tear itself shifts form into a sword. ,,Do not be scared because this is what also healed your wounds. And it’s my burden to wear. Some people would call it curse. I call it life. I found this when I was way younger in a destroyed temple. It was in a small rocky box and I was very curious. After I touched it, it immediately flew into my body. I do not have a blood now. Instead i have this Spectral as I call it because this is what keeps me alive.‘‘ he stops talking and looks towards the doors. Then he stands up, drinks a bit of water. ,,You better get some sleep. I am leaving in two days with everything what remains here. And you will leave aswell.‘‘

Playstyle: Early game – Playstyle mostly depends on the passive chosen at the start. Crippling Jab is good to chase down opponents and deal high bonus damage if you are sure to be ahead of your opponent. Healing burst helps with sustain and outdueling your opponent and the best choice when you know that your enemy is stronger. Force blast is great tool for wave clearing and pushing lane. Try to bully your opponent with empowered Q so you have easier time farming. Save your W for enemy ganks as you can deal damage back while running to safety. W has high cooldown on low levels so keep knowledge about enemy jungler whereabouts. E is another great tool to help you deal damage while retreating and damage chasing opponents. Mid game – If you picked Crippling Jab you are able to push turrets faster than most toplaners due to bonus damage. If diving, make sure that turret focuses you as you are able to block some of its damage with your W passive. Erizon excels in 1v1 duels. Both short and long but keep in mind that he will not be to outfight two enemies if his W is on cooldown. With his ultimate ready he can easily keep enemies away from objectives while making sure his team stays healthy. Late game – If you have enough mana you are easily able to abuse Q range and make sure that enemy won’t engage in teamfight if your team is behind. If teamfight is about to start, make sure your ultimate is ready as it deals massive AoE max health damage and healing. Make sure that enemies attack you as you can mitigate 1/5 of all physical damage dealt to you and deal damage back.
Pros – Brutal dueling potential. Can either outdamage, outsustain or outpush his opponent. Great disengage in form of potent slow. Bullies really well with low Q cooldown and mana refund. Can passively deal damage while retreating with W and E. Mitigates part of physical damage dealt to him. His ultimate is great zoning tool able to turn teamfights around.
Cons – Has no gap closer. If greedy he can be easily ganked. W has high cooldown on low levels making him easier to fight. Aside of his Q he has no skills to fight with ranged and magic damage dealing champions. Mana dependant.
