I was going to comment even before I realized I got an honorable mention. I was pleasantly surprised. Also, 'tons' of IP / RP made me laugh.

The Kit:

Your passive is sort of dangerous. It's almost an example of power without gameplay. (Similar to Akali's or Vlad's passive, which just grant bonus stats simply for existing, something Riot said they wouldn't do again.) Fortunately, it's a rather tame ratio, with a conditional that presents the player with a trade off (do I go ham and try to output as much damage as possible, hoping my partner can cleanup? Or do we both run / kite for the hills?)

His Q seems good all around. Not too much damage, some nice utility. Similar to Naut or Thresh Q but can be used to outplay / mind game the opponent and effectively trade with them.

His W also seems balanced, though it only deals 5 bonus damage currently. I'll assume this is a user error. ;p

His E is interesting. Can be used to turn on the enemy during a retreat, and the root doesn't completely shut them down like a stun would. Damage seems OK.

His Ult is a huge team steroid that is slightly too reminscent of J4's flag. The only thing preventing it from being OP is that it demands your team fight around it to receive the bonuses, meaning the enemy can outplay if you drop it too early or if the enemy kites out of it's range. He def wants a wombo comp to make the most of it.

The Verdict:

Nice use of ability icons. Kit is maybe a touch overloaded. Thanks for not presenting a wall of text in each ability. The mix of damage types is good, too. Flavor-wise, I don't think he presents the strongest theme, but he certainly fits the role of an assassin who can potentially support if necessary, and/or fall back to supporting late game / provide utility if he isn't doing so well. You know I'm baised towards a certain someone being League's Support/Assassin, but all in all, not bad.
