The vast majority of Asian/Chinese players I see and talk to would absolutely hate a Shyvana VGU.

This isn't meant to be an anti-Shyvana VGU post, but there are are a lot of people who think that she is next to get a VGU after Volibear, since she won the Chinese poll. I will clear this theory up.

Champion reworks/VGU's are based around player feedback now. Remember Teemo's proposed rework last year? It was scrapped because so many people hated it. Remember Wukongs rework? That was also scrapped because it was negatively received by the Chinese audience so his current rework is pretty much the same as he is. He was positively received everywhere else except the Asian player base. The feedback towards a potential Shyvana VGU has largely negative in the Asian market. The same goes for karma, she had a potential rework, but the player base hated it. Riot does listen to its customers.

I check feedback a lot on the forums of many league of legends forum sites and most of the Asian player base feel resentful towards a VGU for her.

There were also a lot of Chinese trolls who deliberately voted for Shyvana on the poll just so a lot of people who don't want her to get a VGU would get angry. A lot of them admitted this.

The Asian audience is known for the biggest MTX users. Shyvana is very popular in the Asian market and the vast majority would hate a rework for her. They don't even care how epic her rework would be, Most of them want her to stay the same as she is.

Riot knows this and they aren't stupid. They're not going to risk a huge number of players quitting and losing a lot of MTX customers just so a champion can get updated. There are other champions that are very welcome to get a VGU there, but Shyvana is not one of them.

Remember, I'm not against a Shyvana VGU, I would love one, but we also need to think rationally here. If so many people do not want a rework for a champion, then riot will not rework them. They are not foolhardy. They know her rework will cause far far more backlash than any other reworked champion.

Three of my friends are Chinese, regularly play Shyvana and buy a lot of skins, they all said they would quit if she was reworked. I can confirm that most Asian people would more than hate it, they would despise it.

you are saying a whole lot of tings without anything to back it up... like how many trolls would there need to be for a pool in China of all places to win. That is a stupid amount of trolls that somehow decided to agree on a singular thing. I find that highly unlikely, specially when there is no evidence of any kind provided.

Can you please show us those data?

The "vast majority" of how many? 100? 1000? 10000? What's the statistical error here?

Also, how many of those reside in Asia? How many reside in NA? etc?

You really think that Riot 'listens' to their customers? They don't give a shit about them. They just do whatever they can fucking get away with, so they pick on champions with low playerbases (Galio, Yorick), then remove from, because there's not enough people saying "No". It's absolutely sickening and disgusting.

Edit: Oh, and what a coincidence this is! You're the same person I replied to before. I guess it only makes sense that you'd make multiple posts on the boards, trying to invalidate us as much as possible. Seriously, what's your motive here? Greed? Malice? Or maybe, you live a terrible life, so you enjoy taking it out on other people who are even LESS fortunate than you?
