Singed should get a rework?

So with the new Warwick rework coming out I'm wondering if Singed should also get one as well? I only bring it up because the latest little story about the werewolf's origins has shined a little light on how Singed thinks/works.

"Procured a cutthroat hiding among the populace and feigning civility. Only a disciplined eye could recognize the beast within, yearning for release. How could I refuse? For what is my work if not an attempt to reveal life’s hidden truths through science? It required two doses to subdue him. Impressively resilient. A necessary quality to survive the grand catalyst of pain and provoke the transmutation. The metamorphosis will reshape the man into a chimeric predator, and all of Zaun will be its hunting grounds."

While this is all great and good. His game play doesn't really involve augmentation or crazy ass experiments. Instead its....

Doesn't really reflect at all what I just read in the Warwick origin.

I remember hearing about his rework a month or so ago, pretty sure it's coming soon.

singed represents a unique style to l0l and i don't think he'll ever get a rework.

I honestly hope he's left alone and really far away from VGUs. He has the most unique kit in the entire game and absolutely everything of his kit is core to him. He could get a modernization like being able to buy different effects for his poisons and gas bottle with an item similar to Viktor's core (like a brilliant thread that I can't find suggested), but aside from that, I don't thnk he should be changed.

He was unique in terms of old original champions when Riot was just starting out. Riot has a lot more money, talent, and tech to play around with now so they can do much better then a guy who runs around all game like a stinky Pepsi man.

And they are doing it. The newer champions all have some awesome and complex mechanics, if a player wants that kind of experience, they can play those. The thing that Singed mains enjoy about Singed is his unusual playstyle, even if it's a rather simple one that many people don't enjoy to play. Making any rework that turns him into something other than a stinky Pepsi man woud completely allienate his player base.

If he were an oppressive champion like pre-rework Poppy or Sion, it would be reason enough for it, but right now there is no reason at all to rework him other than the fact that most people find him boring to play.

I think there is a picture of Singed, under "extras" in the Warwick rework. It may just be a lore reference but possibly its a hint at an upcoming rework?

Its like the second to last picture under extras. It shows singed with his hand over his mouth and maybe WW in the back, hung up on hooks?
