I need to admit that reowrks are bad the way the are
Thats a realy good thing riot decided to update their old champions for reasons.
And while this is not the reason they chose to rework them its a big reason to consider. Our old champs cant fight the new champions on equal terms (if im correct everything new even bard is a common sight at lcs ... meanwhile old champions sometimes appear which is a sign of imminent nerf most of the time). And new champions are simply better and funnier.
This leads us to one spot ... reworks. And i need to admit that those suck. Not on their own ... all the new visuals and kits are good fresh and better than old ones.
All of our reworks suck because they dont even come close to the quality of new champions and its the new champions who decide how high is the quality bar. Most of the time those arent even reworks ... those are simple updates that are guided by the mindset of "change something that wont change anything".
So in the end reworked champions still dont cut it compared to the design of new champions unless insanely owerpowered and sheduled for nerfs
So while i do agree that we NEED reworks to happen ... if riot keeps up their current bar of quality with those ... we will need our reworked champions to get reworked again. The actual quality bar that got amped enough is with relaunches (Sion).
Im awaiting for mf and gp reworks during the bilgewater event ... hope those will be good enough, maybe we will start seeing them at lcs and they will become more viable at solo q (dreams oh dreams).
