Great concept, but a few things might need to be tweaked:

Whelps healing structures seems a bit too powerful - If the enemy team doesn't have a good specialist, it would take forever to destroy a Fort.

Wild Growth seems a bit weak - Even for an AoE heal, it's not much, but considering the passive Whelp healing, that can be justified.

Queen's Call should have a shorter cooldown - Whelp healing would be too inconsistent too justify such a long cooldown, 40-45 seconds would be better.

Blast Wave should scale better and have a shorter cooldown - 385 damage in an AoE at level 10 just simply isn't enough these days, it should scale by +35 (535 damage at Level 10) and have a 55-60 second cooldown.

Molten Impact is to strong at level 7 - Another Stun that early in the match is far to strong, it would be better if that talent was at Level 13 or 16.

Concept profile picture should be her dragon form - Your concept implies that she would be in her dragon form, but the profile picture shows her mortal form, not a huge deal, but still.

Stat numbers would be helpful - HP and scaling, Basic attack damage and scaling, and basic attack speed are really helpful for getting a feel for how well a hero could perform.

Hope my feedback helped!
