{Suggestion} Visual rework on Heimerdinger

Hello

I just searched if there was any topic like this but I did not find it in this forum. I have been following the changes that occur on the PBE server by some websites (because I have not a PBE account :c ). Anyway, what I wanted to suggest (As I have not seen this changes and it seems that Riot has no plans for doing it right now) is to give Heimer´s body a visual rework, when you see his old particles and weird body casting his spells I feel like a tiny and alien grandpa using weapons from the future and it is not exactly a nice feeling. Even this old guy from the shop in the aram map looks better!

I mean, that headless brain of Heimer, his eyes, those tiny legs, etc. makes him look from the season 1, and we are already in season 3 going to 4! Just look at Sivir, she is a nice ADC but not much people pick her because the visual stuff, or Udyr, he still looks from season 1 too and the great udyr´s, the better ones, almost all of them have the legendary skin.

Do not make incomplete reworks, Heimer needs a visual one and you have already accomplished the techical from from the speells one, why not make the visual too for a complete release?

That is all. I am sorry if there were already discussion about this, I did not find them in the searcher. Or if Riot has in his plans to make the visual rework, let everyone know, Heimer is a really fun champion that has been hid for lot of time and deserves his shinning moment.

Thanks and have a good day :)

I know they're planning to do something with him. But I also don't think they want to hold back on the kit rework just for the VU to be ready.

There was a discussion not too long ago about yordles, and how the only obvious yordles from a newcomer's point of view are Teemo, Kennen, Ziggs, Rumble, and Lulu. On the other hand, a lot of players don't even realize that Veigar, Corki, Amumu, Heimer, Poppy, and Trist all count as yordles as well (well, there is that whole Megling thing, too...)

It sounded to me like Riot is considering a bit of a yordle-wide VU, in order to give them all a bit of a visual racial cue, so that at a glance, you can tell they're all yordles.

As it is, they could really all use a general VU anyhow, except for Ziggs, Rumble, and Lulu. They're new enough that they seem okay for now. The rest of them are all actually quite outdated at this point.
