Lee Sin The Blind Monk is a melee physical damage bruiser that uses energy. Each of his spells have a secondary effect that can be cast in the three seconds following the first cast. His passive, Flurry, increases his attack speed for two autoattacks which return energy. Sonic Wave / Resonating Strike is a skillshot, with the second cast jumping him to the target and dealing damage based on their missing health. Safeguard / Iron Will is a jump that can be used on allied units, and also grants a shield to both targets. The second cast grants him lifesteal and spellvamp. This ability can also be used to jump to wards. Tempest / Cripple is an AoE groundslam that damages and reveals, with the second cast slowing all hit targets' MS and AS. His ultimate Dragon's Rage is a melee nuke that knocks the target back, also knocking up anyone that the original target hits. His early game damage is very high which makes him a big threat early on. In the late game his damage falls off but he can still be of use to his team because of his utility. He is typically played top, jungle, and occasionally mid.
[edit] Description
| Lore:
|
As a young teen, Lee Sin was intent on becoming a summoner. His will and dedication were unmatched by any of his peers, and his skill drew the attention of Reginald Ashram, the League's High Councilor at the time. While studying at the Arcanum Majoris, Lee Sin became frustrated with instruction paced for the other students. He spent his free time researching the nuances of summoning in hopes of graduating sooner. He made amazing advances in his arcane studies, surpassing all other students. By all indications, he would have become one of the League's greatest summoners were it not for one terrible mistake. Too impatient, he attempted to test his ability by summoning a beast from the Plague Jungles. What he summoned instead was a young boy, but not in one piece. He barely had time to look the boy in what was once his face before the jumbled human mass fell lifeless to the floor. A League investigation later revealed that the boy's entire village was obliterated by feedback from the ritual.
Lee Sin's talents were so promising that the League was willing to overlook the incident, but he could never forgive himself. He left the Institute and journeyed to the Shojin Monastery for eternal repentance, swearing never to practice magic again. Years later, hoping to atone for his crime with martyrdom, he set himself ablaze as a protest of the Noxian occupation of Ionia. He remained alive in this state, enduring searing agony for weeks. His actions paved the way for a League match wherein Ionia prevailed, but by the time he was doused, his eyes had been burned completely from their sockets. Hailed as a savior, he was reborn, and his will to act invigorated. He joined the League of Legends to continue his atonement with sweat and blood, a true monk's only possessions.
