Are there any plans to give champs VU's that don't need GU?

the title. was thinking about how it would be really cool if Bewitching Nidalee road her broom for home-guard animation and thought about all the other champs that have dated models. champs that i think fall into this category are more or less. these are champs that either already got/don't need gameplay update, but have outdated models, animations and/or visual effects to varying degrees. i haven't heard riot talk about any of these smaller VU's.

Since when does Annie Ahri Lux Zyra and, like, more than HALFWAY of the champions need these? Is this just so you can be happy that they get some changes? Give it to nunu, or AurelionSol 's sake...

CertainlyT actually talked about it on Stream yesterday. He said that they'll probably never go back to 'pure VUs', because they weren't as efficient as full VGUs, and players don't get them excited enough (when it comes to VUs) to make those.

Moreover, there's nowadays a popular agreement (both internally and externally) that champs like Alistar or Shen should've gotten the full treatment (instead of just a Model & Texture Update).
