I'm guessing, sadly, a good long 3-4 years. It's just kind of depressing to think about the fact that someone like Veigar may not get a VU until I have graduated from college.
In general I hope that riot forms a 3rd rework team.(even if it is just a team dedicated to do some finetuning,like new VO and animations, on champs whose model and gameplay are considered ok)
I mean at this point I'd say that reworking the old champs should be their top priority,because for new players it'll simply come off as really weird that some champs are so extremely outdated compared to others,especially if they actually start with these champs.
The thing is that some champs with only a few lines of dialogue got already a VU,but didn't get any new voice lines,thus they are unlikely to receive a Vu anytime soon,despite the fact that they have so few lines.
I like having 1 joke and 1 taunt and 1-2 laughs (ex. old taric)
Tilts the other team so much faster than champs with like 4 jokes/taunts (ex. new taric)
This isn't a snarky answer, but take every champ that has less than 20 lines in their VO pool and divide that by two. That's the number of years it will take to get every champ's VO up to snuff.
Explanation: ChampUp only has two teams that would be working on a new VO list for reworked champs and they each only get through one rework a year (Ryze being an exception). If Riot added a third team to ChampUp, bumped up the cadence schedule or created a crew that worked entirely on new voice-overs, that number would be reduced.
Still, you're looking at not only champs that need reworks but champs that got visual upgrades in 2014 and 2015 that were skipped over for new VO lines. That leads up to a lot of years.
Hell of a long time. They haven updated all the old splash arts for the VU champions, and the art is easier to do than voice over due to the sheer amount of dialogue you need to do + different languages + getting the actors to do the voice over in a time when they can.
