@Arts Team: Now that Zilean is getting new VFX, can you PLEASE fix his beard as well?

First of all I would like to say good job because his new VFX looks amazing! Onto the point, Zilean as a whole looks amazing right now EXCEPT I absolutely cannot stand to look at his beard! It's an amorphous tube that curves unnaturally to one side, like a playdough stretched by a 3 year old! And don't get me started on the way the beard moves especially when he strokes it! It's unrealistic, visually jarring, and completely out of place with the quality of Zilean's other visual aspects. Just fix his beard and hair to make them normal looking, and Zilean would be a fairly modern looking champion. So PLS RITO PLS I would be really sad if this is not fixed along with the rework =(

He needs a full VU is what he needs. He's so out dated.

I don't think so, his model is not completely hideous like Taric or Evelynn, and IMO his texture update makes him fit in relatively well with other champions. It obviously could have been better, but a lot of champions are already on the list for full VU, so asking for that is only gonna delay what I see as a fairly simple and necessary fix.

I think it's on the same level as Taric, where as Eve is far worse cause that just needs a total direction of where the champion is supposed to be. Zilean's texture re-balance did help a little with the overall coloring in order to fit in with the rift update (as that's all those are meant to really do) but still visually he's not as appealing as most champions. Like to me, his hair looks like a broom, it's as bad as the squid hair that Irelia has.

And yeah obviously a full VU would take more time but that would really help him more so then anything.
