Has the Fiora rework been abandoned?

After seeing this page, I've become worried about whats become of the Fiora rework that we were told Guinsoo was working on a few months back. After he shared his initial ideas on the direction Fiora could take, we've had radio silence for months and instead we're now hearing about a gameplay update for Viktor.

I was really excited when I first heard that Fiora, as I've always felt that she was in desperate need of a more interactive and engaging kit, and would gladly see my favorite champion reworked to a more interesting place.

But the upcoming rework page suggests that she is no longer a priority and I was hoping for some rioter input on what the situation is for the grand duelist.

Maybe it means her rework has been completed and its in the final stages for pbe testing, maybe it means riot feels others need the love more urgently. First time i played Fiora i enjoyed her immensely and was looking forward to the rework so i could actually pick fiora more regularly without teammates getting upset i was choosing such a feast/famine champion. As it is i will still play fiora just more as a counter pick mid more then as a top laner. She is very good after all at assassinating the squishier ap carries.

Yes the rework has been dropped and will no longer be on Riots schedule. If it will ever make it back on the table I have no idea but it more than likely wont unless A Pros start picking her nearly every game B she some how gets to really high pick/ban in solo Q

I see nether of these things happening in the future I think riot has just brushed her really high win rate off as just a fluke and most pro players just brush her off as a solo Q champion.

I don't mind the place she is in right now because my win rate with her is pretty high and I think she is one of the funniest champions in the game. I just really hope she doesn't end up like skarner, yorick, urgot, galio or a couple of those champs that gets no skins/buffs/nerfs/reworks or anything for many years at a time.
