Dr. Mundo Visual Update

Sorry if this is the wrong board, but ever since I first started playing Mundo I have always thought he was one of the worst looking champs in the game, mostly because he just looks outdated. This is even apparent in his legendary skin. Even though, at least in my opinion, he needs a VU worse than most other champs I see getting VUs, I see no discussion about a VU for him. I would think it would be rather easy since he doesn't really need a gameplay rework or any kind of revamp, even in his lore. If anyone has any thoughts on this, don't be afraid to share. Thank you for reading this. Mundo goes where he pleases, except to modern standards I guess.

The reason they haven't VU'd him yet is because there are other champions who have problems inherently with their kit that a visual update can coincide.

For example, Poppy. She's generally considered a cheese champion, and she's pretty old. They're giving her a VU to coincide with whatever kit changes she'll get.

Mundo's kit, meanwhile, is perfectly viable and functional. It's not cheesy, like Poppy, or purposefully underpowered, like Yorick's.

However, Riot themselves have said that they like to vary in the different types of updates they do. For example, as far as I know, Miss Fortune is being worked on right now as only a Visual Update, yet she looks a lot better than Mundo. They can't just work on huge updates, and they don't. P.S. I know that the reason for her VU is to coincide with the Bilgewater event, but that's just one example.
