What do you want out of the Urgot Rework?

So with word that Urgot is the next rework after Galio, I've been thinking about our beloved potato sack and what I would like to see come out of his rework.

Abilities - As far as his kit goes, I'd personally like if they kept a resemblance to his current kit, but with a more modern touch. Maybe make his passive reduce armor instead of damage and give his Q an aoe affect like Jinx's rockets. This would make him a bit more viable for team fights as he can damage multiple targets. The rest of his kit (except his ult) could maybe stay the same. Though I think they could completely change his ult as I don't think it makes a whole lot of sense. Maybe have it as some sort of heavy artillery strike that slows, does initial burst damage and then applies DOT to all affected enemies.

Visuals - i'm sure Riot can do better than a cyborg potato sack, but whatever they do, I want him to be incredibly ugly and horrific to look at.

VO - His voice should sound pretty similar to his current voice, raspy and muffled and just plain scary. And of course he needs some pretty good comebacks for all the champions that have burned him over the years.

Lore - A better, more detailed and up to date version of his current lore.

So that's about all I've come up with for what I'd like out of the Urgot rework. What would you guys like to see?

I really like the idea of a zaunte Urgot turned noxian executioner however I don't think he'll be the one to worked on himself, simply because is is viktor's lore atm. Definitely there is a lot of potential for him, and especially with Noxus planning to invade Piltover. Hopefully he comes with a Noxus event, we need to learn more about this war driven country, also I'd be hype if Tamara became a playable champion. In terms of gameplay I hope to see him as a ranged juggernaut, just loaded with high damage and low mobility, literally a living tank.

When it comes to the VGU, I am most looking forward to the visuals and voice. Riot has to make Urgot the most repulsive and perhaps terrifying champion in the game. Just pure abomination. That voice has to be full of absolute loathing for everything, including Urgot himself. I know that one of the most prolific writers for Warhammer is now on the writing team, so if you're reading this Graham McNeill, go full Papa Nurgle and turn Urgot into the most vile Plague Marine ever created.

In terms of Urgot's history, I kinda wanna see him be a Zaunite who became Noxian.

Been thinking about it recently, and I dig the idea of a man from Zaun, perhaps talented in chemtech research and engineering, that was so beaten down by their home that they decided to leave it behind and go somewhere that their skill could be better appreciated.

In a similar vein, I wanna see Urgot's modifications change from being given to him to being something he did to himself. I feel like the impact of him literally forcing himself to live in such a state just because of his own bitterness and resentment is a cool angle to follow, and it gives Urgot a sense of importance distinct from other characters in Noxus, considering his knowledge of such technology and his skills as a warrior/executioner would make him not only a valuable military asset but also a key figure in allowing Noxus to access a new, blossoming industry that they'd be very much interested in. Plus it'd give him a bit more agency in his own story.

Also just to mention it, because I feel like this'll end up being the angle they go with; I wanna see Urgot switch from being hextech + necromancy to straight up chemtech. This new science is something I'm keen to learn more about, and if it can do things like make Singed, Dr. Mundo and Warwick the way they are now, I figure that Urgot would be another interesting angle to look in to since we have chemtech applications as something to grant a longer life span, rapid regeneration and physical transformation, but Urgot could provide insight in to how such a technology could be weaponized, which would be interesting for Zaun's society, Noxus's future, and potentially have a lot to do with the Noxian invasion of Ionia.

Alternatively if all of this is just bollocks all I really want to see is an embelishment of Urgot's character such that we can see why Noxus wanted to badly to make him the way he is now.
