Gus, the Great Jailer of Valoran (Champ concept)

I got a thing for beetles, yea big whoop, wanna fight about it? But seriously beetles are cool so this guy kinda has a bug theme (can be an actual Beetle-humanoid or a human in beetle armor.)

passive: Retaliation - when enemies strike Gus, there is a 10/20/30% chance he will retaliate with a basic attack

q: Subdue - empowers his next basic attack and roots target for 1 sec. (will have a relatively short cd, but enemies will be immune to root for for x seconds after being rooted the first time - like passive)

w: You Cant Escape - charges target area, slowing the first enemy hit (can use wings if a humanoid beetle)

e: Resilient Carapace - passive-gives armor/magic resist that increases over time. active-Gus sheds his outer shell, instantly breaking any cc, but losing armor and magic resist, which over time will increase again.

r: No Way Out- creates a 'jail' (think ) that enemies, if they leave have their movement slowed OR if they attack a champion other than Gus, have their attack speed slowed. maybe increases his passive to 100% for the duration

Kind of a cool idea but the passive would need to be turned into something more like Thornmail. Having him basic attack wouldn't work because it would allow enemy players to attack him and possibly have him switch targets mid fight (kinda like giving the enemy a free one BA long taunt). Q seems to be alright if balanced well between damage and CC. W needs a better name I think but seems ok, although using wings would make it too much like Aatrox's jump. I love the idea of his E and the name is pretty damn great. The ult needs to be changed though, it's far too similar to Thresh's ultimate. Something like this might be better- "R: Battle for Dominance- Gus charges the enemy (think Vi's Ult) and deals splash damage, he then taunts nearby enemies for 1 second. All enemies hit during travel are taken with him to the targeted champions location." The damage would have to be fairly low on this but it would work great as a CC tool and would have to be used carefully as there is a fairly high risk of dying when you are pretty much dragging the whole enemy team on to you and taunting them all into basic attacking you. Would be a great high risk/reward teamfight tool and would also tie in well with my idea of a reworked passive. Also (and this might just be me) you gotta change that name. Gus just... doesn't sound right for a champion

The only move I like pertaining to a Beetle concept is the "E" I think you should keep that, and rework the moves a bit.
