He stands on his in one sketch. I've seen Pulsefire Ezreal and iBlitzcrank before, but the two aren't the same as Ao Shin. Ao Shin's overall design is based on the Chinese Dragons. They fly in the air in a serpentine motion. I suppose Ao Shin would stand if he's idle. But other than that, it wouldn't make much sense if he'll stay on all-fours for most of the match and would only hover in certain conditions like Spell-casts and Increased movement speed.
