@Riot, if you give Dr.Mundo a visual update in what direction would his appearance and story change?

It's pretty set that Dr.Mundo will get a visual update. The last time he was talked about was in 2014 i think, by IronStylus. So what are the current plans for him?

What do you think is Dr.Mundo's core trait that you would definitely keep?

Would he keep his puny legs while having a tremendously muscular upper body?

Dr.Mundo is on one side really silly and on the other pretty dark (Killing pets, parents, pain inflicting).

If he were to be reworked, would he rather be more silly or serious?

Personally i would like him to get the Ryze and GP treatment. Making a champion whose personally is seen more as a joke, more legit.

I think Mundo should remain kinda comical,but also show his smart and diabolical side from time to time.

He is the kind of guy,that looks like a complete idiot,acts like a complete idiot,but is still a complete sadistic evil scientist.

What confuses me about mundo is that his lore makes him seem like a dark,twisted scientific genius but ingame he has the IQ of a potato.

Not really sure where we would actually go whenever we do get around to Mundo. Once we put a whole team of creative people on a project it can change quite a bit from our initial feelings as the project evolves overtime.

I will say that one idea I always thought that would be cool for a Mundo VGU is to go the Dr Jekyll/Mr Hyde Route, or at least our twist on it. Where his ult makes him go all Mr Hyde, but he is usually Dr. Jekyll

I think Mundo needs to keep his idiocy and slight silliness, because he is supposed to be an Incredible Hulk/Jekyll Hyde reference, and they can manage to squeeze in his darkness in some ways, such as fleeting moments of clarity similar to how Kalista has moments where she recalls her past. I would hope he gets a full blown VGU, and not a Gangplank/Ryze level VGU, because I feel like he needs a lot more work in the kit department to stay relevant.
