Caitlyn, Corki, and Amumu

So, I've been thinking a little bit about these three champions and their appearances. I remember a while back that a visual update for Caitlyn was discussed among rioters. It wasn't meant to be something major, just a way to update her design to more closely match the newer Piltover Champions like Vi and Jayce. Her steampunk style doesn't quite fit in line with the way Piltover evolved, although she was still likely to hold onto a vintage style.

As for Corki and Amumu, these are the two yordles left that haven't been properly given the yordle update, as both are very much out of synch with the yordle style.

Have these visual updates been completely cut from future updates? The big counter argument to all three of these champions is that there are much higher priority reworks coming soon, ones that are not only visual, but also about gameplay. Despite the fact that there are important updates coming for the future, there tends to be smaller ones in between those. Is it possible that we could see any of these three changes in between major updates coming next year?

probably the wrong subforum for this kind of thread since this is all about visuals

I also don't think Amumu is a yordle. I know it's been left ambiguous by riot but most of the yordle characters have interconnected lores, designs, and skin themes, while Amumu doesnt have any of the story or visual hallmarks of yordles, and is often paired with Annie in skins, who is a human child.
