Ao Shin is a sort of watchword for teased champions, and I hope he doesn't get Omen'd. Even if he doesn't end up getting shelved, we have no way of knowing how long it'll be before Riot releases him. That said, what do we want out of Ao Shin as a community? The storm dragon archetype is a lot to live up to; what abilities would we want out of him, what kind of personality, etc.

I would really like AO Shin to be out for revenge against J4 years after the expedition where he went out killing dragons. I could see it as a pretty cool story line if they had AO Shin staging an assault on Demacia. As for gameplay I think he would make a great juggernaut jungler.
Ao Shin would make sense as a juggernaut mage, but I'd very much like to see some kind of flight skill on him, can't imagine they'd allow a juggernaut to fly. I'd expect whatever they do with him (if they do anything with him), he won't disappoint.
I agree with the mage juggernaut concept.
When I think of a storm, I think of 3 things mainly: Rain, Lightning, and Strong Winds.
Add some nasty claw attacks to that and I am down :P
I kinda feel like hes a guardian of sorts. Dragons are kinda associated with guarding treasures of sorts, but instead a treasure he holds back an ancient power to prevent runeterra from being destroyed by some giant calamity (more than likely a giant flood or storm of massive perportions). He would harness some of the power to protect would be mages or wizards from tampering with said power.
As for gameplay a kinda tanky physical mage would be interesting and makes a little sense to me personally.
I havnt been with league more than a year, im not horribly familiar with Ao Shin though I know if him. Just my 2 cents on what vibe I get from him.
