Riot should focus on remaking original champions not making new champions

I know new champions are awesome but there are plenty of champions who need remake. Trundle ,Aatrox Galio ,Udyr and many more so why not focusing on them and slowing down new champion's release?

I am pretty certain that those are two different teams so the red response would be that focusing on something like this would not make things any quicker than they are now. Though they probably should have a larger staff team by multiple levels that actually work on the game compared to several years ago . . .

TWO! DIFFERENT! DAMN! TEAMS! They don't stop a rework to develop a new champion, the two processes run tangential to each other! How many times does this need to be said?

Trundle and Udyr dont need to be reworked.....

What's wrong with any of the named people? Trundle even had a rework already, and he isn't bad, not by any means.

We've had more champion remakes than actual new champions this year to be fair.

Absolutely, sadly, they make far more money on new champions. Especially if they're new and op, tons of people are willing to buy the champion and the skin.

I agree that riot should focus on old champs, but don't forget that riot is a business they need new champs so they could sell more rp.

Whats wrong with Udyr atm?

Remake Trundle and Udyr are you kidding me?

If they are doing reworks, get them as far away from CT as possible at least. And whoever that made those terrible reworks like Cass.

trundle and udyr no remake pls. Perhaps a tweak to trundle (his kit is pretty damn boring, basically just AA and throw a giant dick on the map), and udyr just needs his makeover

galio seems like he could be decent with a ranged AA. although that might make him too safe, given his W. In any case, his Q mana cost and damage should perhaps go down. as it is, he can cast like 3 Q's and be completely oom. the mana regen rework thing hit him really hard, but people forget because he is so underplayed.

Well they just reworked 4 champions, and are always changing champions in every patch

Also, my one anger with udyr is you need to spend 30 dollars on a visual update ( no I don't mean I hate the skin price)

Yeah, because that always goes over well for them...

Sion - There are still threads to this day where people complain that the new Sion has "no personality" and they "miss the old Sion," and they think that his "hybrid kit" makes for "varied gameplay" when really his original kit and design was pretty trash. Now, he's actually balanced and people hate him again because he's not "OP" anymore.

Garen Darius Mordekaiser Skarner

Since the Juggernaut update, at least one of these champions, if not more, are banned pretty much every game I'm in, and everyone complains about them being OP. Garen in particular I find is damn near unkillable now, which is horrible. Pretty much everyone on the list is STILL BROKEN.

Ashe

Her rework is actually good, but no one really says anything about it because no one really cares about Ashe to begin with. She didn't become super OP, so a lot of people don't even remember that she got a rework.

Are you starting to see a pattern here? Either reworked champions become way too OP and people complain, or they get nerfed a little too hard, and no one cares about the rework. Riot has no actual incentive to rework old champions from the community's standpoint... I would much rather they get on that Rune system rework anyway, or a replay system... yeah, Riot has a lot that the fans want them to make, so let's get the big things out of the way... Some champions can sit and stew in obscurity for a little while, imho.

They have been slowing down on new champion releases.

They also have multiple teams: one for reworks, one for new champions, etc. More people on the same task does not always equate to doing things much faster (sometimes, it's the opposite and bogs down progress.)

These guys need VU. Morgana Nunu Pantheon Kayle Corki Taric Warwick Olaf Shen Zilean Ryze Akali

Some of these need Sion level reworks.

Have you been keeping track of all the reworks that have actually been happening? I started playing in pre-season 4 and since then,Ashe Cassiopeia Darius Fiora Gangplank Garen Gragas Heimerdinger Kassadin Maokai MissFortune Mordekaiser Nidalee Rengar Ryze Sion Skarner Skarner Sona Soraka Teemo Tristana Twitch Veigar Viktor Xerath Zilean have all been reworked. That's a hell of a lot of reworks.
