DISCLAIMER: NOT A SWAIN MAIN

So, do you remember this champion? I get the feeling he's completely abandoned. No new skin in years, not a single balance change in a long time and no talks of a rework or, honestly, anything about him. He has a pretty outdated model and his playstyle is pretty binary and quite frustrating to play against. Yet there is no mention of him receiving any kind of update.

Are there any plans for him? Maybe a small gameplay rework to bring him closer to the modern standards and make him a but more interesting to pick up? I tried playing him for the first time recently and I got bored from the first game which is sad... :/

EDIT: Not saying he is weak, just boring to play with and generally too outdated.

In Bronze I was able to Swain and completely rofl stomp and climb straight to Silver I... since then people know how to counter him, harass him and beat him. He's in a good place, he's still a good counter pick, but I'd love to get more skins for him.

Are you kidding me? Swain has always been ridiculously strong. Meanwhile Galio, Taric...
