New Champ & VGU Patch Prediction

Yow its me again Killaburn, or you can call me JonnyBoyy because its my IGN now lol bringing you again my latest patch prediction this year and a snipet for next year's release dates.

As you know, I also created a patch similar to this 6 months ago, which is this post. I got only 5/10 in my 2018 prediction(including road map prediction) which is not bad imo. I got debunked half way because of my excitement to VGUs and new champs releasing early to have many of them in a year(specially VGUs) and predicting their release dates fast. I also didn't include/forgot the 3 week patch every year which occurred in between patch 8.13-8.14. I also forgot the drought months which I hope to be remove because next year we will have a 50/50 split release of new champs and VGUs. Prolonging VGUs (BTW, is it still necessary to produce many new champs in year? with so many champions already? heck skins team couldn't even cope up in giving new skins to new champs plus, I think we should only get 3-4 champs in a year imo cause its a win-win scenario, riot gets to update many outdated champs plus new champ lovers gets to have at least 3-4 champs in a year like this year)

Before I start I just want to reiterate that Ez's VGU will come after worlds patch which is 8.19. So, don't expect any new releases in patch 8.18-8.19. To take note, there are 12 teams that are developing a new champ/VGU. 6 new champs and 6 VGUs to be precise, including ez, 2 new champs seen in the august roadmap and kayle and morgana.

Before we start I just want to tell the timeline of the releases said by reav3 : Ezreal -> Colorful Champ -> Chained champ -> K&M

PS: Every PBE patch update starts in tuesday after 2 weeks it begins to deploy in live servers

PS: I balanced it with the 50/50 releases

In 2019 September and December are the drought months ( Initially, I concluded that there are 2 months each year that are drought months in past seasons)

In 2018, January and April are drought month, theorizing that sep-dec will have a release of new champs/VGU.

Before I end this, this are just speculations with a little bit of truth like champ release timelines said by reav3, developer quotes of meddler/reav3 like ez will be out after worlds patch,etc.
