He would be a nightmare to play against I think. Passive perma-slow, silences and blinds and shields out the wazoo, and an ult that is extremely powerful.

I think he is immobile when he is leashing with the ult, which is definitely required. Can he flash / lantern, and if so does that break the leash?

How exactly do his shields work? If he has three stacks, do the stacks take damage separately, first-come-first-served? If so, do new shields replace the damaged stack and just refresh the whole shield back up to max all the time? That's the way I would intuitively expect it to work, but think that that is extremely powerful given decent max health and attack speed.

Besides that I think he'll be *really annoying* to fight against, I wouldn't say that his design is unbalanced in principal, though I would guess that his shield and passive are probably too strong. But I don't know about either for definite.

I'm not entirely sure what his inspiration/theme is, besides having something to do with being wise. Does he have a weapon? Armour? Or just his fists and a robe? Is he a monk or a warrior or some kind of animal or spirit? Is he simply Confucius? You've definitely picked your "see no evil" etc. theme and done a great job at turning it into a resonant kit, I'm just not getting anything more about what he *is* besides the proverb and the wisdom.

He's clearly an effective and thematically tight champion whose movelist is definitely balanceable but probably just tips over into too-strong at the moment, but I don't personally find him to be that interesting (this is definitely biased by the fact I don't in general care for tanks/fighters/melee/burly warrior types), and don't know that he's distinct enough from Udyr to avoid criticism on that point.
