Can Malzahar and Varus be the next candidates for a VFX Update?

Varus Varus

  • Passive just unclear at times under which buff you are under (Champion kill or Minion kill)
  • Q hitbox is really bad and at the end of the range, the tip of the arrow just disappears while the line of the rest of the arrow doesn't.
  • W is slimy purple worms.
  • E just makes the ground look like it had a Brightness and Contrast applied to it.
  • R just looks very old in general and has the purple worm issue same as with W.

Malzahar Malzahar

  • Q Visuals just don't look all too well designed, it's way too complicated and choppy (similar to how the Hextech Malzahar Q was made to look).
  • W Voidlings spawning visuals aren't satisfying because he's not spawning them from the ground but they spawn in some weird looking electricity visual.
  • E could use some improvement but it's alright I think.
  • R Null Zone just doesn't look great, really old and just poor in quality.

I'd argue Varus could use a small kit update with a model update (similar to Ez, except the kit change would be more than one ability). His passive is pretty lackluster for an ADC (hell, Jinx's is his passive but way better even though its restrained on champ kills), and hes in a weird spot where he loses a shit ton of damage for Q and E if he goes Crit, but his autos dont do much if he goes Lethality to bolster Q. The other problem is like Kog, hes a hybrid marksman, and man do they not care about that outside of Kai Sa (whos kit supplements her with shit that makes up for the lack of actual hybrid items).

Yeah, Varus needs the ez treatment... Then again, so did Annie.
