@Meddler Is Maokai going to get any attention in the near future or is he on hold?

Title. Since the nerfs in 5.7 to his passive healing at early levels, Maokai has been around a 46% winrate (this is for Diamond ELO from OP.GG in the past month), one place above Yorick. Is there any chance for small changes or tweaks to the tree in the near future? I feel like he is in a good place, but just a little below where he should be.

And every time I play him I feel like I'm cheating. IIRC, his winrate is huge in experienced players hands. 100% in mine. No, I don't think the tree needs buffs at all. His laning, skirmishing, and team fighting are all great.

They don't have to be buffs, I was just wondering what Riot has for their view of his condition. They could be QOL changes for all I know, just wanted info ^.^

I main Maokai and think he's in a great spot. I play him mostly as a support/jungler and rarely as a top, but he's got a few build paths, and he's a nice tank to pick up if they have a Vayne. I do wish his passive healed for slightly more, but I also don't want him to be OP.

i honestly think he's great at the moment, too. as a top laner he DOES have a few issues but he's not meant to win his lane by himself. he's not a darius, fiora, or gnar type but what he does his thing exceptionally well. he outshines a lot of champs when in team fights and holds down the fort for his allies to wreak havoc.
