Been a while since we last talked about this, but Evelynn's model is still bugged out and I couldn't help but notice how shiny and new looking Aurelion Sol looks.

You know what would be sweet? That Astral Evelynn skin, or perhaps Arclight, or Justicar, something... I've just been dying to look at different particle effects for her. It looks like the VFX team is getting better and better with each passing year.

I am thankful for Safecracker Evelynn, and it's cool considering that Twitch and her have that in common now, but C'mon, I make a lot of money and I'm dying for a Legendary/Ultimate Evelynn skin.

At the very least, invite her to the next pool party. She's an excellent diver. You know what I mean? [slayer-jinx-unamused] . . .

Yeah, Jinx knows preCISEly what I'm talking about.

She's not being actively worked on and it's been said that there are higher priorities for VGUs than her (Taric, Yorick, possibly Warwick and Urgot), and she also has a hard-to-solve (for Riot at least) identity crisis.

Urgot got iceboxed because they just weren't getting traction with what they were going with, so they're going to try later but for now are giving him some stuff on the side so he's not totally dumpstered and stuff, hence why he's getting an aoe fear.

Taric and Yorick are at the top of the reworks list and are actively being worked on of course, as you said, and I know Swain and Galio are high on the priority list too, but likely not this year. Evelynn I have no idea at this point.

Last I heard, Riot was currently working on directions they wanted to take Evelyn in, which would help shape her eventual Full Update. They said they had some good ideas for her, but I'd guess there isn't anything concrete being worked on at the moment.

I hate how they just keep ignoring her...lore and model. It's so disapointing. Shes in the same limbo state as fiddlesticks.

It's been about 2 years since they've even touched the subject and they still haven't figured out what she is.. Sad because she was supposed to get her VU with Twitch when they were reworked in 2012. It's 2016, and nothing.

Too bad there aren't any ways to fix the model on the client, and I'm not big on modifying files that are installed by it. How much would it take, then? Money solves lots of issues, and can be great for motivation, lol.

SERIOUSLY considering a fundraiser at this point.

Or is it not an issue of cost?
