@Riot: Does Merch of a Champion Impact their Potential Visual Rework?

The only example so far of a champion's visuals changing who had merch was Gangplank, but his Captain skin was basically free, and his weapons and oranges stayed the same.

Let's say Ezreal, for instance, was getting a total rework. Does the merchandise limit what is capable with his new design and kit?

let me answer your question with another question did fiddle ever get any of his spells fixed? did morde ever get disabled even tho he has over 200 known written down bugs? how much merch did you ever see for any of those 2 examples?

I'd say it doesn't impact the visual reworks. Gp might have gotten the captain Gp-skin,but even that one looks still quite different than the merch-gp(especially noticeable in the poster where he fights MF).
