Sadly Riot doesn't want to do pure VU anymore but VGU's.

We have to get through Taric and Yorick first it seems.

I just hope Fiddle gets the Tristana/Gangplank treatment. I just can't vision him getting relaunched.

if he doesn't get mordekaiser(s treatment,he will be lucky ;p

Well smaller gameplay updates with VUs would still be a possibility. I mean Tristanas or FIoras updates were also VUs with a gameplay update,just on a much smaller scale.

Taric and Yorick are merely the next really big ones,comparable to Sions or poppys reworks.

The new Baron and Twisted Fate came from this cinematic, Fiddlesticks is the only one outdated now and probably he will get this appearance aswell

Didn't twisted fate get his VU before the cinematic?

also I'd say that Ryze and maybe even nocturne still look bad as well.

That's because Ryze and Nocturne never had visual update and Nocturne will take it a lot later

Thats the point You said Fiddle is the only outdated one from the trailer,but Ryze and Nocturne are pretty outdated as well.

Here's Riot Character Artist (or ex-Rioter?) Shawn Brack's version of Fiddlesticks:

While it is just fanart for now, if he still is a Rioter, it may have a very super mega tiny bitsy little chance that it may serve as a base for a future Fiddlesticks Visual Update. :>

If he really is still a rioter,then that is actually a very real chance,considering that the same thing pretty much happened with Kassadin,whose VU was almost completely made by a rioter in his/her freetime.

Two similar cases are Heimerdinger and Singed, whose bases for their would-be VUs were made months earlier by Josh Singh (Riot GrumpyMonkey) as a demonstration at a ZBrush conference of some sorts:
