I would be glad if any Rioter responded to this or anyone else asking about this topic.

LOL You know we out here with our girl Ahri who need her fifth gameplay update because she's slightly out of meta.

Riot simply dgaf about old champions, there are many who are inherently too weak, DrMundo , Amumu , Fiddlesticks , Nasus etc. They should all have bigger priority than Kennen , yet they don't get any. That being said, do not expect an answer, I've been posting about former ones for a year now, not a single word from Riot.

Fiddle's in for an update soon but I'm not sure about the others. I think Kennen was part of the first twenty and still hasn't been looked at but his best buddy Akali is getting a VGU. Like he has a great kit, and he's an awesome team fight champion but there's something about his gameplay that makes him feel, vulnerable?

What makes me a little more upset is if anyone wants to play like a better version of Kennen why not choose Swain and just forget Kennen even exists as a champion ? Sorry for the ramble it's just so fucking frustrating lol on my original account he was my first main so I hold a lot of emotional connections to him.

i think the biggest flaw with kennen is he is basically a ranged champ whos resourceless

That actually might be it tbh. What do you think would be a good way to like fix him up?

Nothing makes Kennen vulnerable. In fact, he is a ranged, resourceless champ with a free MS boost enough to escape any gank. He is also a better teamfighter than any of the above mentioned, thus he has been used in pro play the most. Currently, many counters to Kennen are meta, which is the only reason why he's not picked as much.

Either way he seems to be on the rework schedule hopefully a VGU and gameplay. I don't know if you play him or not but yeah he sucks in the meta and as champions around him grow stronger, I feel as if he'll remain that way. With only a few patches over the next few years. Since his partner in crime(Akali) is getting her own update I believe he shouldn't be too far off after the Nunu VGU.

Visual update is VU and only gameplay update is GU. Both of them combined are VGU, a la new Irelia or upcoming Akali . At least know your shit before saying it.

I don't know if you play him or not but yeah he sucks in the meta

So do many other abovementioned top laners, while Kennen 's had insanely high pick rate during World's 2017. While I still do not see whether there is any particular issue with his kit, he should have the least priority.
