@RIO WHAT CHAMPIONS TO BE WORKED ON AFTER WARWICK
I read an article about how Riot is going to be posting a thread up about what champions should be after Warwick. The guy said he wanted to get player feedback on what champions the team should be looking into next, whenever these snails decide to actually do work.
My opinion differs from what I really want to happen from what really should happen. My main Karma is a champion I would really like to have worked on since she has received the worst rework in LoL history. She has not had any substantial work on her since her failed relaunch in 2013. Everything about her past identity was removed from a kit and theme that doesn't fit her. Riot cannot be bothered to work on this champion other than a numbers buff. I can tell you right now that I really want her to be worked on . . . . . but I feel like there are two other champions that are in dire need of work more than her. While Karma's kit may be disjointed, doesn't fit her theme at all, is poorly executed visually and from a thematic standpoint, I feel like Evelynn and Morde should be worked on.
Karma is only made viable because of the useless numbers buff Riot gave her. Her kit is technically not incredibly overpowered or underpowered numbers wise, but these number buffs really maker her identity and bland kit really present. There are other champions with kits and visuals in far worse standing than Karma. Slap on a brand new VU, give Karma a new passive that actually helps her, fine tune her numbers for late game and nerf her early game, nerf the overpowered shield a little bit and find other ways to compensate her, and give this champion a theme and identity these Red Names stole from her. Karma is a champion that technically doesn't need a lot of work in the gameplay department, but more in the lore, identity, and visual department.
Eve is a champion that suffers from a lot of issues . . . . . her kit and visuals are very outdated. Her theme and kit really do not do her justice. She received this swanky new splash art that does her no justice. Eve is a champion that needs to be worked on more than Karma in my opinion. Eve has this amazing theme and somewhat vague lore that she has yet to live up to. I would love to see a new Eve with a kit that makes her maybe a little more viable in Top Lane and in the JG, a new VU that matches her amazing splash art with an up to date model, and an actual lore to her. Eve has a lot going on for her, but Riot doesn't want to work on her.
Morde received the second worst rework in LoL history. For reasons unknown, Riot decides to give the middle finger to all Morde mains and make him into something he was never supposed to be. They gave him this ridiculous dragon mechanic that doesn't do anything for him. They have yet to actually adjust her visuals and give him an up to date model. His lore is kind of bland. Lastly, Riot took away his identity.
What champion would you like to see worked on? I read something a few months ago saying that Riot wanted to work on ChoGath over everyone else. Quite frankly I do not feel like he is in dire need of a complete VGU over champions with older models, kits, lore and other ones you flat out ruined in failed reworks.
Honestly, I wouldn't even mind if Akali was worked on. Please just no ChoGath.
