Yone's Son

I don't know if i'm the first person to come up with this champion and lore idea, however I have decided to make this post.

Most lore fan's of League Of Legends already know the story of Yasuo and his brother Yone. You might also beware of a theory about Riven and Yasuo. I had this idea of a third champion in the mix. Yone's Son!

Lore Idea

This boy, I imagine to be in his mid teens. Black Hair, dark eyes, resembles his father and uncle Yasuo a little bit. He use to be a sweet, loving, innocent boy. He was very interested in the art of sword combat, and hoped of joining the dojo or school his father was in. Of course that all changed when his father was slain by his "traitorous" uncle Yasuo. The boy swore an oath to become strong and one day defeat his uncle to avenge his father.

The story could expand more into the world of Runeterra. Perhaps the friends he makes, how he got strong, and how he found and joined the Institution of War.

Champion Concept

So, i'm not much of an artist, but I imagine him to wield two Katana like weapons, dress similar too Yasuo, but with a lot more black, and as for abilities i'm not exactly sure yet. I plan of expanding this idea with some help from the community.

I want to know what people think, and what you guys, the community, might add or subtract to this conecpt. Post your lore idea's, kite and ability idea's, and design idea's and lets see what we make!

Note: Just as a last note, this is my first time posting a Champion Concept Idea to the boards, sorry if its a little "bad" and if I sound kinda funny with the whole "lets do this together thing". Also, maybe his name could be Zankil ;D

I think its a pretty good concept! Like FloRaider42 said a two handed swordstyle is pretty interesting bcs it hasnt been done before.

Do we really need another katana user ? I guess focusing on a two handed swordstyle could bring some interesting mechanics along, but I don't think it is enough to sustain an entire champion.

Edit: Since he now hunts Yasuo and didn't learn the Wind technique before he could employ another element. Like he learned a special swordstyle that is said to be very strong against Yasuos style.

Lighting: Possibly too similiar too Kennen. Would be mobile, employ stuns and medium to high damage. Fire: Would have some dots (additional AA increase Dots or have extra effects) and either a burst or duelist approach. Earth: Would have good defense and be a bit tankier with some CC. Water: High utility and maybe some unique interactions with the River.

Passive- Two Sword Style- Passive alternates between giving +10 AD and +10% Attack Speed (passive clickable) Q- Abandoned- He Throws a Sword slowing enemy champ by (25/35/40/50/60) movement speed W- Trained- Deals increased damage to targets who have a lower attack speed (15/25/40/60/75) E- Return- He jumps away from the nearest enemy champ (Roughly 3/4 Flash distance) R- Reprisal- He Dashes in a straight line Dicing enemies and moving through walls dealing damage equal to 15% of maximum health plus 5% per enemy champion hit.

Just for Fun summoner 31

Passive: Coiled Twin Dragon

Zankil alternates between his fathers sword [wind style] and his own sword [earth style] every time he casts an ability. Cooldown is shared between those two forms.

Q: Piercing Gust / Crushing Wave

Wind Style: Zankil charges towards target direction after a brief delay dealing physical damage to all enemies in a line.

Earth Style: Zankil jumps towards target location dealing physical damage in an area around himself, stunning himself and enemies in the radius for X seconds.

W: Cruel Storm / King of the Mountain

Passive: After switching styles Zankil gains MS (wind) or AR and MR (earth) for a short duration.

Wind Style: Zankil surrounds himself with a shroud of air that gives him AR Pen several seconds. Earth Style: Zankil shrouds himself with an earthen armor that gives him a shield for several seconds.

E: Breath of Steel / Crumbling Boulder

Wind Style: Zankil creates a local tornado that deals magic damage, slows enemies and gives allies MS for a short duration every second.

Earth Style: Zankil slashes the earth sending out pieces of rocks that deal physical damage and knock targets back. Targets can be hit by multiple pieces, but take less damage from additional pieces.

R: Eye of the Storm / Descending Meteor

Wind Style: Zankil unleashes a terrifying storm that deals medium damage in a large area outside of his AA range.

Earth Style: Zankil marks an enemy champion for X seconds, applying a mark and dealing bonus damage with his AA (has a 1 sec CD). Once four marks have been applied you can recast this ability to jump at the targets current location dealing high damage in a small area.

What if Yone's son used his dad's sword....?

I also agree with FloRaider42 the idea of a counter to Yasuo's technique could be very unique but i was also thinking that Yone's son could be somewhat evil or turned into a Noxian through ______ (Insert Noxian Champion here) and could have learned the dark arts to do whatever to avenge his father and get revenge on Yasuo. Just an idea though ;P
