@Meddler are there any other champions being looked at to become Juggernauts?

I'm asking this because I remember reading a while ago that Shyvana and a couple of other champs got looked at for maybe being changed into juggernauts. Now I know that right now the juggernaut changes are not that well received, understandably for champs like Skarner Mordekaiser who didn't really get the changes they needed to fix their problems or just made their problems worse Mordekaiser, but Riot is at least trying to make some champs get picked even if they are op right now. Like Darius Garen I think are going in the right direction and can work with a bit of changes so I was wondering if any other champs are being looked at, specifically the one champ that made me make this thread Tryndamere.

I recently played Tryndamere after a long while and I decided to play more like a juggernaut for fun, and you know what he felt extremely fun to play like that. I built item 3742 item 3111 item 3748 and a couple of other juggernaut like items and he was just a blast to play like this. I don't know if doing this was better or weaker than going ADC Tryndamere but I don't care I felt like that is how he should be played not as a dumb crit monster but as a bulky juggernaut that you should be scared of. Also Tryndamere has been in purgatory for awhile as a generally useless pick so I think a rework is needed for him to work in this game anyways, so why not make him a juggernaut by changing his passive to something more fitting a juggernaut instead of crits and maybe changing his Q up a bit as well? Also Meddler if you do show up in this thread at all could you tell everyone what other champs were looked at because I'm sure I'm not the only one curious? :)

Riot wasn't trying to turn champions into Juggernauts with the rework. They just wanted to give a few champions mini reworks that would give them clear niches. Which so happened to fall under the broad category of Juggernaut.

But if people are still playing Tryndamire as a melee ADC. Riot probably wouldn't touch that functionality. (though I don't see why both builds can't be possible. In fact, a lot of champions can vary between Melee ADC and Juggernaut just by changing up their build path.

id say yorick would fit in with them, but hes getting a large scale rework including a vu. so its gonna take longer.

other than that, theyve already taken a look at mundo and voli. id put them into the same group.
