Is it to late for MaoKai to get changed a bit?

It's been like 8 months since he got a Visual Update, but that update is the sole reason he went from my highly picked jungler to hardly picked jungler, I just can't enjoy him anymore.

I don't like how he looks like a rock with some leaves sticking out.

I don't like his skinny feet, I liked the old bigger ones that were roots.

I don't like the new color scheme, I understand the clarity issue and such but he doesn't look like something from the shadow isles anymore.

As for the feel, he just doesn't move like a tree anymore, it's like he lost all weight to his movement and I honestly think this is a failure alone, the way his animation shows him strut around freely doesn't give you the impression of something twisted or heavy.

While I can't say you will make changes, it'd at least be nice to just say it's to late or to much to do at this point, I don't think many people were that pleased at the time when he was on PBE, I could be wrong.

Edit-

It's probably unfair to at least not give some suggestions on how to help this. I only list things that would help, I don't imply I want all of them.

I want to see him get a slight color adjustment, maybe have more moss growing on him, His feet need to look like tree roots again as well as adjusting his model to feel more rigid maybe.
