Champion roadmap for 2020?

Pantheon's rework is already in the PBE, and is hitting main servers in this patch. But we have no reliable info (because no one knows if that leak of a female marksman is made up or not) on the next champions and reworks that Riot is going to release after him. The only info we have currently is that Fiddle and Voli are going to be reworked next year.

Considering the part of the year we are in, I'd expect 2-3 releases before 2020. I would be glad if any rioter could at least hint us about what's coming next, the same way they did with Pyke (they said they were working on an assasin support way before he was even announced).

Also I'd want to know the state of the VGU list. If I'm not wrong, the tier 1 candidates are currently Amumu , Corki , DrMundo ,Fiddlesticks , Malphite ,Nocturne ,Rammus ,Shaco , Shyvana , Skarner ,Udyr , Volibear and Zilean . Fiddle and Voli are already announced so that's 2 less. But what about the rest? Most of them need serious work and probably there is a lot of people who want them updated. You should probably announce at least 1 or 2 for the immediate future, the same way it has been done in previous seasons, when we already knew the 3 next reworks that were coming in. I hope we can get some information soon.

[sg-lux-2] We already got pantheon last week And how could the female marksman leak be made up when the splash art was literally on PBE accidentally instead of one of the skin splash arts And they've told us what they're going to do next. We're going to get some unconventional marksman next (most likely the owner of the leaked splash art) Aaaand i'm pretty sure Zilean ain't gonna be reworked for a while 'cause he's getting a skin this year. Same with nocturne, shaco and corki. (all of them are going to get, or already have gotten a skin this year) So i highly doubt that they are going to be reworked in 2020. Shyvana is really popular in Asia, so i'm pretty sure riot will look into her in the next year

Pantheon is already out on the live servers, and has been for a week now. And the previous roadmap already revealed that the next reworks (at the time of writing the roadmap) were going to be morde, and panth. Followed by Voli and Fiddle at the start of next year. morde and panth are now out, and once the next champ is revealed, all the champs teased in the roadmap will be out as well.

I think it's a bit unreasonable to expect riot to release a new roadmap before the last one is fulfilled yet. Wait until the adc is out, riot will release their next road map at some point after. We're barely past the halfway point of the year, hold your horses. The roadmap for 2020 is more likely to come out towards the end of this year or at the start of 2020.
