Well, I wrote a huge wall of text on ability templates, but it seems to have disappeared :( I'll rewrite it again sometime, but for now, I'll give you this piece of advice:

Experiment. I learned the coding just through using current champion templates as guides, copy-pasting them into my concept posts, making small changes here and there, and then "previewing" them to see what it looks like. It takes a lot of time, and a lot of trial-and-error.

I know it sounds like a cop-out, but just take the time and test it out. If there's any specific questions about the templates, I can certainly help :)
