Zane (Champion Idea)
Zane's intended role is a mage. (All of Zane's damaging abilities are upgraded by ability power) Zane's Abilities. His passive ability, "Twin Set", sets up a twin Zane that is completely identical to the original Zane. Zane and his twin share all of their characteristics (except current health) while the twin is alive (but if the twin is dead, Zane does not share the characteristics) When the twin is killed, there is a long cooldown before the twin respawns next to the real Zane, as long as the real Zane is alive, and with full health. However, until the 'W' ability is upgraded, the summoner cannot direct the twin, the twin would simple follow the real Zane, and attack whatever the real Zane does.
His 'Q' ability, "Laser Pair", Zane and his twin*, if currently alive,* shoot a beam of red magic in the direction clicked.
His 'W' ability, "Connection", has: the passive ability that after Zane and his twin attack the same unit with a basic attack or ability, creates a red line connecting the two for ten seconds that slows and deals magic damage to all enemies that pass through the line, (extra damage to monsters); the active ability that allows the summoner to direct the twin in movement and basic attacks.
His 'E' ability, "The Twin's Secret", turns the original Zane and a targeted ally (could be his twin or on himself so that he is invisible twice as long) invisible, simultaneously increasing the two invisible champions' movement speed during invisibility as well as heal them.
His 'R' ability, "Trade", allows Zane to switch places with his twin, dealing splash damage to all enemies near his champion and twin while also freeing Zane and his twin from all current debuffs.
***Zane's Lore***
From birth no one could tell Zane apart from his twin, except that Zane would always be the one to lead his twin in doing something. They did everything together all of the time, so much that eventually they just started calling them both Zane. It was easier than trying and failing to find out which one is Zane and which one is his twin, which his parents called Zan. They became an unstoppable force of master traveling criminals. Because they were exactly alike, and never mentioned each other, and seemed to be able to read each other's minds, they were never caught, just suspected. Mostly they just pranked, but when they needed something, they would just take it, using the other as cover. The only time they would split up would be when they were up to something, like a prank, or robbing a bank. People say that one day the twins did something to Caitlyn and Jinx, but all they know is that one day people scrambled away from Jinx as she ran to the police station calling for her gun "fishbones", but strangely, there were no toppled buildings on her way there. No one knows why, but now the twins want into the League of Legends.

***Zane's Gameplay*** *Gameplay by UltraInventor and I Feast Tonight*
Mid Lane I would prefer to play Zane in the mid lane, because I could get strong fast, and there would only be one enemy champion present to attack my twin and I. In the beginning, I would not be very strong because part of Zane's passive would split his attack damage into the two twins. Because of this, I would start by upgrading my W so that I could direct by twin to help get cs faster. To farm I would send my twin closer to one set of bushes, while I would be near the other set and I would then use both my twin and I to go forward and kill a creeper on either side with ease. For my second upgrade, I would upgrade my Q ability so that I can use it to poke, zoning the enemy mid laner at the same time while they try to dodge the Q. I would particularly use my Q when the enemy tried to come close enough to get any cs. For my third upgrade, I would still (in normal circumstances) play passively, so I would upgrade my Q again. I will not need to upgrade my E ability unless I am trying to engage the enemy, but most junglers will gank later rather than sooner, preferring to turn lvl 6 so as to use their ult while ganking mid lane. Assuming that this is the type of jungler my team has, I would rather keep poking and zoning the enemy to keep them weak enough to secure a kill with the first gank. When I engage with my E ability, if I am running back into lane, I would usually use my E on myself and have my twin hang back for a little before I am seen. Then I would take my original self behind the enemy, and reveal my twin. This could allow me to create my own pincer movement. And if it is my jungler coming in and both of us are level 6, I would either take myself into the bush or a little past that bush to where I would meet with my jungler and use my E on him, so that both my jungler and I can rush in on top of the enemy while my twin is hanging back to give the illusion of my twin or I taking a camp or something along those lines that would keep me from creating the pincer movement I was talking about. Hopefully I would be strong enough by level 9 to roam with my twin or I to other lanes to offer some extra strength and get some extra kills to keep my middle laner lower than me. When both my twin and I are ganking, I would use E on my twin some time to get up to the enemies I am ganking. Then, I would use my Q the moment I become visible again. While I am engaging enemies however, I would be careful to have my twin and I on opposite sides of my target so that when my W passive kicks in they will not be able to run away. In a game though, there are many tight squeezes in which I need to make a full-out escape, to do this I would keep my twin close to me if they lack multi-target CC, but spread apart if they do. Then, when they land some good CC on myself, I would not ult immediately if I could afford not to, I would try to wait at least a little so that my twin could put some distance between us, or so that I could at least confuse my opponents into thinking they CCed the wrong twin. Sometimes I would even ult if my twin gets snagged, because I want to keep my twin alive if I can. I might also ult if I was certain I could not get away, and making a swap would give me enough of an edge to at least get a kill before I die. In major team fights, I would prefer to use E on either the best assassin, or on the adc before an engage so that the most valuable ally can go near the fight safely, while not joining the fight until the chaos of the fight begins, and the enemy is focused on everyone other than the one that could give the damage. Then, for dragon steals if I have the opportunity, I would go invisible and just get near the dragon while the enemy is nearing the finish, and use my Q to steal it; the same with the baron, even if I have to sacrifice myself to steal the baron, it would get the buff to my allies instead of my enemies. If I know an area is warded, and there is a strong backdooring opportunity, I would use E on only the real me to get past it, then I would go forward a little more, and send in my twin afterward and allow my twin to be seen by the ward. Then my twin would draw the attention until I start attacking the inhibitor/nexus. This would be my basic playing style for Zane in mid lane. UltraInventor
Jungle I would upgrade W first, for the passive on it, and the ability to position my twin to the other side of the monster. I would go for blue first. Next I would upgrade E for sustain and to go to the next camp faster. After that, I would upgrade my Q as a way to get a large amount of damage on the monster I am fighting. I would upgrade my Q, until I was able to upgrade my ult. When I go to gank, I would turn invisible shortly before going in, putting myself behind them. Then I would use Q and attack them. As soon as I get massively CCed, or either my twin or I have been severely hurt, I would ult. After I max my Q, I would max my E, then W. I would also get hunter's machete -- stalker's blade -- magus. For teamfights, I would use E on an assassin or the adc on my team, then I would have my twin attack in front, while I snuck invisible to the back. For the dragon and baron, I would attack the dragon, and have my twin on the opposite side of the dragon, if needed, I would use E as an escape. I Feast Tonight
