Trebbi9 votesThey could have made his ghost skin his default temporarily and disable other skins and keep him playable. That would made a ton more sense than disabling him for so long.
Not to mention he was the main man of the patch and he was barely in it.
Dr Poro3 votesBut he didn't really die. He just dissapeared after the explosion so everyone assumed he was dead. Having his ghost run around means that he is really dead.
Trebbi2 votesGameplay > lore
He could have been momentarily dead for all I care.
The point is he was gone majority from the patch he was introduced in, which is just sad for anyone that actually wanted to play him.
Kyle Bailey2 votesYou realize he was removed due to an interaction between his barrels and Draven, and had nothing to do with the lore. Certain gullible people on the boards however seem to believe everything they see.

Riot said that those bugs weren't large enough to justify disabling him. They said they disabled him because he "died"

Ok, so, the model that the updated him with? That's now a free skin they're giving away. Now you're stuck with this big, fat, ugly ass, cyborg POS. And he's the base model, so every skin has his dumb face on it.
The Lexer1 votesIt's kinda cool that Rito did this, but it really only needs to last 3 days max. Now its just tiring to see the warning at the top of the client every time I log in
Amelie1 votesDidn't they have to disable him because his new look has to be tested on the PBE anyway? It wouldn't fit with the story to re-enable him after a day or two or three, then throw him in PBE with a brand new appearance. (Would spoil the whole story/'surprise' ending.)
No, you can't enable him as a ghost (he didn't even die) and then magically change his model either. It wouldn't make any sense. Everything is tied together.
Simonizer861 votesWith all the people that was crying with the deficient lore in league now that they make a great scenario and brings lore into the game you still crying....c'mon guys that was a really nice move i think to put lore into league and with the other 125 champs i don't think it's really a problem that gp is disable for a couple of days...
And they are propably fixing things about the rework anyways...
