Let's talk about Amumu
Was anyone else a little surprised when REAV3 revealed the next 20 or so champions who would likely be the ones to get a VGU and find that Amumu was not on that list?
List: Dr Mundo, Corki, Chogath, Fiddlesticks, Kayle, Kennen, Kogmaw, Nocturne, Mordekaiser, Pantheon, Rammus, Skarner, Shaco, Udyr, Volibear.
His visuals are really old, and Amumu's only iconic abilities are his Q, W, R. I would say that Q and R are all good but some changes would have to be done to his W and E more importantly if he was considered to get a VGU. As of right now Amumu's W doesn't feel impactful, because it requires him to be constantly next to someone to make use of the damage and for Amumu to survive that long is hard since he has no real proper tank stats.
It can be argued that his E passive gives some sort of tank stats but it just generally hard to notice the difference if you max E first or any other ability.
What are your thoughs summoners?

were on the list while some champs that feel like they need it more like

weren't. Amumu definitely needs it. Especially since he's one of only two champs to have six Chinese splash arts (the most any champ has) (the other being
who's getting reworked in a couple months). I'd like to see him get it in ~2020.
isn't on the list either and his model is from the heavily outdated ones
