This Wukong Rework is an insult

I'm very disappointed in this rework. This rework was an insult to the people who have waited faithfully for this rework to come, or at least with hopes it will be worth the wait. Now don't get me wrong, I appreciate the effort but it just cannot cut the nearly 8 month wait. First off this thing was announced since around April 2019, We are now in January and season 10 coming out still no wukong rework. Im sure straight VGU's were released quicker after they were announced than Wukong's. But not only that but what we waited for 8 months for is mediocre crap, these changes arent gonna fix his problems. A Rioter even had the balls to say Wukong's actually moderate in this meta, the nerve of him. I have questions..

Why did it take 8 months for the "art" for this rework? (The nonexistant art)

Why did you guys let loose on Garen's and Shaco's reworks yet pulling punches on Wukongs? How are you possibly more afraid of Wukong being OP than garen and shaco?

And lastly..

In all honesty, do you genuinely think Wukong, and Senna, Aphelios, Qiyana, and Sett should belong in the same game?

Shaco got AoE boxes, Garen got his spin to scale with AS and onhits, some passive scaling tweaks and making his ult consistent

Wukong got overall buffs to the majority of his kit, and similar buffs to his ult that garens spin got, as well as a more usable W and overall much better laning.

Its disingenuous to say they pulled punches with wukong compared to the other 2, especially when wukong is extremely popular as-is outside NA.

Bruh, you whining about champion power and shit being too obnoxious in your last sentence when your entire thread was about Wukong and his ‘lack of changes’. What? Were you expecting him to get the Akali treatment and have so many overblown things and an update so big that it would tear reality into two?

Besides, it’s very easy to make a champ incredibly powerful without testing, but takes a lot of time to make them balanced. Shaco makes update got him nerf after nerf, and he’s still frustrating to beat for most whiners. Garen is still S+ tier, despite getting his update neutered many times. You can tell Wukong’s design needed to evolve, but also stay very close to similar and low in numbers, enough to have him not be a totally OP shitshow.

Be glad you got something of a rework in 8 months rather than staying in limbo for another season.
