Yorick and Urgot are often discussed (or disgust) as high priority for a little makeover. But what champions are often overlooked?

Yeah but what really drives me off the most is Pantheon ingame vs his lore vs his splash art. Pantheon in his lore is a muscular spartan like warrior with a golden shield and a crimson red cape. Ingame he looks like someone literally took a picture of a spartan and made a N64 graphic model (plus that both the shield and cape are different colors than the lore). And his splash he is completely different aswell, instead of weird underwear and non effective N64 armor he has bronze armor, a weird skirt, a broom on his helmet (ingame that looks like the head of a rooster) and a spear that is double his size.

Well he was made when LOL designers weren't so "creative" in terms of champion design. The thing is, Pantheon has a lot of potential as champion considering his lore but at this rate of VGUs(they did only 2(3 if u count shen) in 2016 so far) i dont think we will see his update anytime soon.Which is sad tbh.

The weird leather skirt things are pteruges over a chiton, which is what a spartan would have actually worn. Except they should be longer to cover the thigh and bronze studs there is no evidence that the Greeks did that. But that's a minor detail all things considered. The spear in the splash is also pretty good since the dory spear was between 7-9 feet long with Spartans favoring them a bit on the long side. The silly diaper is just a hold over from the 300 movie which tried to copy the comic which showed everyone as heroic nudes (which is actually pretty clever since the Greek art loved portraying their heroes as naked and the comic was trying to turn the Spartans into such heroes, but the movie of course couldn't have everyone wandering around with cocks hanging out).

Honestly if they made the splash his in game model I would be content. Except the cloak, it should be red, because I love accuracy and the reason why the Spartans wore red was just too badass not to add in. Red dye was very expensive so wearing those cloaks was a status symbol of being a spartan, and it was a dark red to mask all the blood stains it would have before they could get a new one.

Make that his appearance and dialogue that doesn't make any reference to the stupid body hopping space parasite bullshit and I will be a happy man.

Nunu This guy feels super stale, i dont even care if his abilities are adjusted, he needs to look more like his splash art

I have a simple answer: literally every champ that needs one.

Edit: But in all seriousness, if I had to pick an over looked champ it would be Olaf. However I care very little for the guy so he's not a priority IMO. Maybe Corki would make a better VU.

Mordekaiser, Pantheon, Nunu, Olaf, Anivia, Cho'Gath, Warwick, Jax, Udyr all need VUs. Unfortunately, VUs are tied with gameplay updates, and I rather like how a couple of those champions play. Not all of course, Warwick and Morde really need gameplay updates.

Udyr and Ezreal .

Both have incredibly archaic models and animations, on top of old as hell VOs. Heck, Pulsefire Ezreal looks like 975 skin nowadays opposed to the ultimate skin it's supposed to be.

Id add ez and udyr to the VU list and maybe Sona (but that last is my bias)

Kayle's going to get a full VGU while Morgana's getting a medium-level VGU.

I know they were mention by a rioter recently but it was just him/her wanting or hoping for kayle and morg to get dual VU as far as I know that is just one Rioter opinion on it and not Riot as a whole. We don't really know if they are high up and the VU list or not.
