See You Space Dragon...

Is it just me or does an all powerful, astral being who forges and destroys stars being a consistent-damage mage(instead of a disgusting burst mage) of champion miss the mark somewhere? Its a different concept, and do not get me wrong that isn't a bad thing.

Being a badass dragon and being hyped so much close to release, and with a 1.5% pick rate

to this day, this champion is niche at best, definitely one of those champions that have people to main it just because others people do not, e.g.

Riot Axes was saying something about doing a -esque sized update

>We had to delay it quite a bit for resourcing reasons, but yes, we're still planning something at around the Shyvana-ish scope for Sol," Axes said. "We're ramping up on it now, so it'll be at least a few more patches before we have anything to show."

That was early last month, curious when that will occur.

In the quote he mentioned "a few patches" this was disclosed late Dec -- early Jan that would have been patch 6.24, its currently 7.3, that timeline is 3 patches since it was late in 6.24 that it was announced.

if we take that into consideration and the official definition of 'few'.. LUL

>few fyo͞o/Submit determiner, adjective, & pronoun 1. a small number of. "may I ask a few questions?" synonyms: a small number, a handful, one or two, a couple, two or three; not many, hardly any "there weren't many biscuits, but we saved you a few" 2. used to emphasize how small a number of people or things is. "he had few friends"

and see, one or two, two or three (patches) we can estimate the mini rework is late and should be out in the coming patches

Then Riot Meddler crashes all hopes and dreams with the Soon™ statement..
