@Riot, About Omega Squad Teemo

Why not use the base skeleton for it to make Teemo more of a yordle and less of a tubby ball of fluff with stump legs? Sort of like how Goal Keeper Maokai was released and then the rest of his skins got brought up to a similar visual quality.

Like, I know this would probably be more complicated than it sounds but honestly I thought the O.S. Teemo teaser was hinting at his VU/relaunch. Personally it feels like the new skin is more Teemo than normal in game Teemo when you look at his lore :/. I know he has Texture updates on the PBE but he's still a weird little stump of animation; like he actually levitates his blow gun around his hands if you look closely.

Because with a new skeleton and rigging for his skins, they would need to create a new models for EACH skin, and not to mention that Omega Squad Teemo's animations would just be the same as for the other skins, making it less unique and more homogenized.

At one point he will get a VU, but he's not in very much need of one, as he looks alright (even got texture updates which looks great on PBE), but for now other champions such as Taric, Poppy and Anivia needs updating more than he does.

I thought they said he was getting a VU before too long...
