Like the title, I think Reav3's gonna announce 2 VGU's next in the next road map

Because as they said, the 5 teams can do either new champs/VGU's and riot even mentioned if it not a 50/50 favors next year(not season) its gonna be a 60/40 favor on VGU's. And if the 2 teams that do reworks only do reworks next year same with the new champs team, then the promise of either doing vgu's/new champs is not very applied well.

So my speculation that:

Ornn's team will do a VGU And Eve's team will do a VGU too

because i think kayn's team will do a new champ that will be release after swain if my memory serves me right. making rakan's team the creator of ornn and xayah's team the one who will make the new champ after eve.

Those VGU's will probably be NUNU and Morde because riot said no to back-to-back position/lane/faction champs. being swain either mid/top will exclude morde being next unless they really migrate him in the bot lane (but i think he fits in the jungle because of its ultimate).

TL;DR: Nunu and after him, Morde is next to receive the VGU privileged.

At this point it doesn't look like Ornn comes with a freljord update,so it is possible that they plan to do a freljord update once nunu gets his VGU.

NUNU really needs a make over to be honest. I only like his Ultimate because it has so much damage and i like that for a support champ lmao KS-sing adc's kills

Yes, because who wouldn't like VGU's?? and i agree with Nunu and Morde cause this 2 are the top 2 highly anticipated VGU's of all the outdated champs that needs VGU now excluding swain. And hope Nunu is first.

I just want my Volibear to be reworked. His updated story from Ornns lore has me even more hyped for a VGU'd Voli.

They probably left some room to rework ryze.

The next roadmap blog will be about:

  1. New champion after Ornn
  2. Next VGU after Swain
  3. Details about Swain VGU

Unpopular opinion I know, but Teemo really needs a VGU. I want Teemo to get some much needed buffs, but he can't have that as long as his kit is in this toxic and binary state. Not to mention that his W and E are relics from a long gone era of champion design and must be burned to the ground. Remaking the kit will be the perfect opportunity to polish his model and redo his clunky animations (just look at that walk. Look at it !).

If it means champs being updated at a faster pace without losing the quality the past VGUs have had, then I'm all for it. I think Morde could be possible as the next VGU, only because technically they did try to turn him into a bot laner and if that's not the case then at the very least he's still a top laner as well. Swain tends to stick to mid and while Morde can be used there, the Morde mains I've talked to say they prefer to use him Top. The way I see it, Eve is a Jungler, Swain is a mid laner, since they would have just done a Jungler not too long ago, Morde would be next as a top laner followed by Nunu since it would have been at least two updates since the last Jungler. Unless Riot throws a curve ball at us we never saw coming and update a Support we didn't realize were that high on the list.
