Hey.

Riot said Lux would be one of the only ones to get a VO update but no rework. ...then Lee Sin popped up.

Will we be getting a VO update roadmap soon enough?

That said, with current lore alterations.

Here's a few champions who need a VO, stat. Ahri Annie Nidalee Vladimir Graves TwistedFate

Varus and MissFortune are pretty high due to lore changes. MissFortune actually had one but due to mixed internal feedback they canned it.

LeeSin is having his done for a completely different reason then any other champion.

For some reason Riot doesn't like doing these. Its kind of frustrating that they are so unwilling to ever call a Voice Actor back for anything. They basically only do it for Legendary/Ultimate skins, which is why Lux got her VO; just a good opportunity since she was already there for Elementalist. (I've heard that they did the same for MF, but didn't go through due to poor reception). They randomly had Jinx and Ziggs' VAs back for Odyssey which was a nice surprise (Kayn's VA was already back for the Legendary skin, but that was nice, too).

I'm just thinking about things like the way Blizzard will quite frequently add lines to Overwatch Heroes whenever a new event rolls around or they get new skins. I don't expect Riot to do things with THAT high of a frequency, but SOMETHING more would be nice.

Next will probably be Malzahar, and then no one for a while.

'Cause Lee Sin isn't getting one for story reasons. He's getting one because Vic Mignogna did the voice and Riot execs think that cutting a guy who's innocent out of their game over his controversy will give them moral brownie points in light of their own controversy.

The reason I say Malz is, of course, because Mignogna did his voice too.

The champs that talk about the Summoner should be 1st prio

If they aren't going to give some champ updated visual, least they could do is expand on Voice Overs.

MF, Nocturne, Cho, Sona, Nidalee, plus others I'm missing, still refer to 'summoners'.

Recently they got the voice actor for Nami in to do Yuumi's voice. Nami's dialogue is all fish/water puns. Couldn't pay her an extra $100 and redo Nami's voice over?

Don't worry, next they will give Yasuo a VO.

Katarina needs a VO update desperately! She has so few lines and literally no interactions.

Anyone with a VO shorter than 5, even 10 minutes really. VOs are a great way to show a champion's personality and many champions could use one given how old their VOs are. Some more than others. I'd personally love to see Syndra but hum... Well, not happening. :')

I think NNocturne should be a priority champion to VO.

His ability to enter dreams and the subconsciousness make him a gold mine for Lore quotes and revelations in a similar manner to Swain. I think they should give him priority above everyone else.
