This was an earlier comment made by someone. It summarises what Xypherous (a designer) said about the champion before.

He is basically a large champion with an Anchor as a weapon. He apparently doesn't resemble Davy Jones or Gangplank in anyway and he is neither a monster (like Renekton/Nasus) or a human. One of his skins uses a sort of cybernetic pickaxe thing instead of an anchor. Oh and he isn't as ugly as Urgot!

Passive - Not very clear. But apparently it gives an incentive to switch targets during a fight

Q - A hookshot that can interact with terrain. If it hits terrain you get pulled to it. If it hits an enemy it will pull him to you, also you will move towards him, meeting in the centre.

W - A shield that can scale with HP that provides other benefits while it is up. One of them is Damage (probably the only benefit, but I'm not sure)

E - Spikes come out of the ground and slow everyone in front of you (I think in front of you)

R - Explosions of water geysers that goes forward/follows you. Blows anything caught in the way.

His playstyle is similar to Amumu/Leona in the sense that you jump to them/near them and use a bunch of CC until your team comes, oh and you are a tank. You do not want your shield to absorb damage so that you can maximize the other benefit time. He is also apparently a good jungler because he has fast clear time. He scales with AP and his total ratios are 2.9.
