"We here at Riot decided to stop releasing VUs without the champion getting a rework"

Mordekaiser get's reworked "Nah, we didn't see him as a priority to receive a VU" Right, cause I couldn't stand the constant spamming of the boards and reddit asking for a Fiora VU, she clearly needed it more then Mordekaiser And yes , I am still salty that she got a VU, not because I didn't like it (I actually don't mind it ) but because she got one without needing it while other champions are just awful and get nothing, and yes I understand that Riot wants to release the champion VU with the Rework, but then do that equally. We are going to run into the immobile mage rework soon, and many candidates to be on the update list need a VU , but I have my doubts if they will receive it (Swain Malzahar Veigar Vladimir Anivia come to mind).

Its about new animations. Mordekaiser could simply reuse his old animations and get a ghost dragon.

But they couldn't have done the Fiora rework,without adding a new animation for her W.

Also Morde was part of a large-scale-rework.He wasn't the only juggernaut to get an update,so they probably focused on the gameplay-aspects here.

Morde's W and E look worse now than before

Funny thing is that Morde could benefit so much from a Kassadin/maokai level of VU :S

And Fiora actually has less animation than she did before. All of her new abilities reuse the same animation now. They also didn't bother giving Ryze a proper VU same for Morgana, they gave her new particles and some texture changes and called it a day. Lets just ignore she is still a walking spazzing tent.

Swain is fine though, especially compared to the others listed by OP.

Swain needs a VU and RW pretty desperately. he doesnt exactly scream out to be a feared and respected commander of noxus. and his bird form never made sense, not even in lore.

Rammus needs a Splash Upate. Jesus christ and the juggernauts didn't need shit.
They hurt enough as it was.

and out of nowhere, Olaf will get a VU cause Riot felt like it :p

You are seriously suggesting Malzahar to get a VU? He is perfectly fine. Even though, I wouldn't complain about a visual rework for effects, the only skin that doesn't have purple effects, is snow day. If shadow Prince got yellow-ish particles, well.. Who knows..
