Highest priority champions for VGU

Looking at Reav3 comments these are Mordekaiser Pantheon Fiddlesticks Nocturne DrMundo definitely more talked about than rest of the candidates right now, after Ezreal Kayle Morgana Chogath for one they call him not super urgent

{quoted}

I would say the current pool after Akali/Irelia are

DrMundo Corki Chogath Fiddlesticks Kayle Kennen KogMaw Nocturne Mordekaiser Nunu Pantheon Rammus Skarner Shaco Udyr Volibear

These are the ones we generally discuss talk about these days when we go into early ideation on new VGUs. Some more then others, but all of these would make sense at this point, for various reasons. Obviously Kayle would be paired with a Morgana, should we end up working on her.

This was last tier one update and based on the recent comments, this five are definitely gonna be coming sooner than later.

EDIT:

Sure, current highest priority targets (Not including ones already announced) are Amumu DrMundo Corki Fiddlesticks Mordekaiser Nocturne Rammus Pantheon Volibear

This always shifts and changes of course, this is just our current thinking

Leave Volibear alone. The Aatrox and Galio reworks tell us loud and clear how Riot treats low-popularity champions.

Reav3 replied to me and said Morde is very high on that list so probably after the current one he is the immediate next.

I dont think Fiddlesticks needs any game play or visual update .

why does riot continuously ignore tryndamere? his design is obnoxious and unhealthy,,,

Please, for the love of chemtech, let the next VGU announced be Dr. Mundo. I want to experience what Riot can come up with to truly give us the madman of Zaun! Give me back the Dr. Jekyll, let me pump experimental potions through my veins, while I hunt down my patients as I please!

I'm not gonna say Fiddlesticks Fiddlesticks doesn't need a VGU, He definitely needs to be worked on. As someone who loves this champion however, it's a rework that makes me nervous. I'd rather see a modernization (Like Nunu & Evelynn) as opposed to a Complete Overhaul (Aatrox & Galio).

Also I noticed Shaco Shaco wasn't on Reav3's new list. Did Reav3 forget to mention him or did he fall out of the Tier-1 list?

I think that Diana needs VU really her ability are very ugly and she is a really strong champion pls vu her !!!!!!

Voli is so out of minds from everyone, even in the comments of this thread nobody is talking about him....

I think it's the best sign that he need update the most.

He has 0,7% pickrate right now and is second lowest pick of ALL champions in Diamond+ Only Seju is lower.

With enough being said, your list are the same as mines and anyone can come first after k&m. Although i'm a bit biased that morde should be reworked next after the sisters.

I think Mordekaiser's VGU would be released on 2019 Harrowing.

Pantheon has only one recent mention in months. And it was nothing substantial. I wouldn’t categorize him in the “more talked about”

Vlada Cut8/29/2018, 1:48:20 PM1 votes

Wrong. We already have a confirmed champions roadmap list, so why would people expect "OMG MORDEKAISER REWORK!!!11!!!" hype train if he obviously won't get release before Kayle vs. Morgana event?

Cho got a skin , that's why , same goes for Wukong while Wukong rework is urgent imo
