When can we anticipate a Galio teaser?

Title. I feel like it's so close, yet so far away.

edit : (the rework ofc)

edit 2: Did a Rioter really just post on this and delete his comment before I could see it? That is so cruel on so many levels.

edit 3: http://www.surrenderat20.net/2017/03/the-hour-of-need.html#more

Like always, Greenlore is right.

Last patch came out only a few days ago(23rd febuary),the next patch will likely come somewhere between the 7th-9th march,so the teaser for the rework will likely come out this friday or next monday.

Lùmen2 votes

That.. is much earlier than I expected

GreenLore2 votes

Well it currently looks like Galio will be in the next pbe patch(since there is a demacia icon on the pbe server already),in which case he'd berevealed next week(since that is when the next pbe will be updated) and the rework would be released in ~3 weeks from now

Have you noticed that you're basically asking for a teaser of a teaser?

Nymzo2 votes

I thought the demacia icon was the teaser.

Moonboy653 votes

the icon is a teaser for the Demacia event coming soon

macromite10 votes

in which galio will certainly be part.

all of the past events for lore starting with the bilgewater had a champion updated. Bilgewater had Gp Targon had Taric Shadow isles got Yorick And Piltover/Zaun got put together, and received the warwick update. Demacia is next up, so that means Galio afterwards it can be expected to see Noxus and Urgot and then good chance that evelynn will either be standalone or will be tied to either a new area or runeterra as whole

Moonboy652 votes

Bilgewater had MF too

macromite2 votes

not really the same level as what we are talking about here.

Moonboy652 votes

I'm glad GP and MF are on the list for new skin splashes though :D

Too bad Ionia doesn't really have any re-workable champs.

Soraka, Irelia, and Karma could all use some reworks, at least a small one.

Sexy Jack Rabbit1 votes

Soraka needs work comparable to that of a Class update. It's too punishing and too limited in it's current state. But her kit has a solid enough direction that she could be part of a "Big 3" style update.

Karma's kit is... workable, in a class update. But her model, animations, character, quotes and everything else is so utter garbage, I don't think Riot could get around to it in a class rework.

Irelia is in need for a massive VGU.

QMighty4 votes

Irelia is pretty much on the top of the VGU list...

Malicious Metal2 votes

Together with Nunu and Mordekaiser.

Lùmen1 votes

AMERICA Mordekaiser FIRST

RiotReav38 votes

Irelia and Akali are both Ionians high on our VGU list

Malicious Metal1 votes

I'm going to be honest, I dislike both champions but they're probably going to be really awesome post VGU^^

SlyTactician 1 votes

Can we expect a Kennen Kennen VU as well around the time of Akali's VGU? It would be sad to see him being the only member of the Kinkou Order not updated to modern standards. D:

Canastus1 votes

How come Cass isn't on the VU list? All she received was a TU back in 2014, meanwhile she's still stuck with a model-rig from 2010 along with the same old animations. Heck, she doesn't even get skins anymore since over 4 (!) years now which makes her the most neglected female champion in the entire game. She needs some attention, as soon as possible.

Why would you even prioritize Irelia and Akali if these champs get skins all the time? Meanwhile the skin-department doesn't even acknowledge Cassiopeia's existence. The same could be actually said of any other branch of Riot, she has zero merchandise or icons going on (the one I'm using is dedicated to Caitlyn of all people!). That's just sad.

VGU =/= VU

Currently they don't really make huge visual updates unless they are VGUs (visual and gameplay update).

Canastus1 votes

I'm well aware of the differences but there are other people on here who are also asking this person about potential VUs on their mains. I'm just one more person raising awareness about a neglected champion, one that has been forgotten for far too long.

Lùmen1 votes

Her models are beautiful, her animations are solid and she got a tail update. Jade Fang is an amazing skin that was bolstered in quality after her roster update rework, her voicelines easily spark the player's interest and give an accurate perspective of her identity and character.

I know it has been while since she received any direct work but this does not qualify for a motive to rant about her current situation.

Canastus1 votes

The tail-update NEVER went live, they're promoting a falsehood in the patchnotes. I'm appalled that no one else realized this yet, it just shows how no one actually plays her to even notice. Her Jade Fang skin never got "upgraded", it's literally the same as ever. Infact it even lost its custom particles when they introduced her 2nd rework, now that's just pitiful.

Her voicelines are a shadow of her former self, she's not even half as seductive as she used to be. Hell, she doesn't even HISS anymore whenever she talks. And don't get me started on her character/lore, it's just 4 lines of text on her profile and nothing else. She feels incomplete for so many reasons and doesn't even get skins anymore, she's just a blatant failure.

Lùmen1 votes

Come on, man... Don't make me say she's just a another Karma.

Also, I like this one. http://universe.leagueoflegends.com/en_US/story/cassiopeia-color-story/

Also they said before next champ, and they said mid season tank update will be 7.9 or MAYBE 7.10. and i think suppor champ is supposed to be before tnak update as well. so lets say Galio isnt announced for 7.6 somehow he HAS to be 7.7. for support to be 7.8 or MAYBE 7.9.

macromite1 votes

Galio and support could come out at the same time.

Like taric and A sol.

its not just reworks. Shadow Isles was actually a Halloween thing, yorick's update just brought a few more bios to the same location. and Camille was tied to Piltover and Taliyah to Shurima. Mostly it seems to be new and reworked champs. But you also have new champs and reworks that don't get tied to any real lore event, like Jhin or Ryze or Kled

macromite1 votes

ok then, I don't believe anything you just stated is relevant to anything I stated in the prior post. My point was, Region Updates come along with Champion Updates.

its not just reworks.

Considering that was the whole of what I was talking about, it was just reworks.

Shadow Isles was actually a Halloween thing, yorick's update just brought a few more bios to the same location

It was also the major update for the region of shadow isles, and the reason why we know so much about the isles today. Regardless of accuracy this point does not contradict my point and is therefore irrelevant.

and Camille was tied to Piltover

Piltover and zaun are now the same place, and when warwick was updated zaun got its update cementing the connection. This point does not contradict my statement and is therefore irrelevant.

Taliyah to Shurima

Shurima had already received its update, before the bilgewater update I believe, Therefore this point does not contradict my point and is irrelevant

Mostly it seems to be new and reworked champs

I think you meant to put something else here, as otherwise this is entirely irrelevant otherwise, and also false, as new champions are not added with every major lore update.

But you also have new champs and reworks that don't get tied to any real lore event, like Jhin or Ryze or Kled

My statement only pertained to situations in which champions were being updated along with region based lore being updated. therefore new champions do not apply when not tied to lore events. In the case of ryze, two logical leaps can be made,

  1. Ryze did add lore about a new and seemingly important part of future league lore in the world runes,
  2. Ryze did not receive a substantial enough change.

one or both of those could be true, but likely not neither.

To simplify, The only thing you said in your post that had any sort of relevance was "Mostly it seems to be new and reworked champs" but this point utilizes poor wording.

Sexy Jack Rabbit1 votes

His points aren't irrelevant. He wasn't contradicting you. He was just adding on to what you had already stated. We often see events come with more then just a rework, we normally see a new champion as well. A lot of Rioters mentioned that the Targon even was smaller then other events.

The Piltover and Zaun event saw a new champion AND a reworked one.

Reav3 has commented that the distance between Galio and the next champion is smaller then usual. So it's possible we'll see a Demacia and Noxus style event even.

macromite1 votes

unlikely, noxus likely won't get its event till urgot is re-released, and tank update separates those. again its probs like A sol and taric. probably to try and make demacia a more varied city state.

Also the huge point I was trying to make for him was that nothing he put was even relatively a part of what I had already put down, which is where the problem in lies. I said something, and he said something else. With an easy to understand wording, Original post, "how long until we get butter" First confusion, "I thought this label was for butter" What I replied to, "That label is for a Grocery Store" I said, "Grocery Stores have Butter" And what he said, "Butter Isn't the only thing Grocery Stores have"

Replacing words if you are a bit too literal "Butter" with "Champion Update" "Label" with "Icon" "Grocery Store" with "Region Update" and be mindful of a few grammatical mistakes.

In all, we are talking about "butter" and he claims stuff that has no relevance to "butter" even if he is right, it doesn't matter, because we were talking about "butter"

I've used butter too many times, it has stopped looking like a word to me.

EROTIC RAID BOSS1 votes

my point is region updates and lore events are tied to more than just champ reworks, they're also tied to new champs. and one time it was just for harrowing.

nor does every rework mean a lore event. not just ryze, but really yorick was not remotely a lore event either, adding only 2 bios other than yorick's own, and no short story. and ryze was just as substantial an update as any other rework they've done recently, totally overhauling every spell and all his art.

trying to pretend piltover/zaun wasn't just as much about Camille as it was Warwick, or conveniently forgetting the massive Shurima lore event that came out with Taliyah, just makes you look really fuckin dumb

I do think Galio coming with a Demacia event is extremely likely, with the icon. But you shouldn't expect it for every rework or be surprised if one accompanies a new champ. Like I'd be really surprised if they had a lore event for Evelynn.

macromite1 votes

again, nothing you put is relevant.

Ryze? irrelevant, he wasn't with a lore update. Camille? irrelevant, she was a new champion. Taliyah? irrelevant, shurima was already updated.

So here we are again. So you can understand a few things. Here is my statement.

Region Updates come along with Champion Updates.

Here is what you read for some stupid reason

Champion Updates come along with Region Updates.

Can you explain the difference? can you even see the difference in meaning?

Let me give you a hint, they are drastically different in meaning.

EROTIC RAID BOSS1 votes

Your exact quote was

all of the past events for lore starting with the bilgewater had a champion updated

Which is false. Piltover shurima and shadow isles lore events had nothing to do with champion updates. And shurimas lore event, which included 8 new bios and short stories for champions and 2 additional short stories, came out with taliyah. So let's stop pretending that wasn't a significant lore event as big as any of the others.

In general you were just fuckin wrong and then you tried to pretend you said something else

macromite1 votes

MY wording was hard to understand at first, so I clarified it for you to make it particularly clear.

Region Updates come along with Champion Updates.

this was my intended point. I try not to edit posts if I can help it, but that is what I was trying to communicate. I said events when I meant updates, but again, Clarified when called on it.

In general, read what people type and don't insult them when they are actually trying to tell you why you are wrong rather than just that you are wrong.

EROTIC RAID BOSS1 votes

Lol I was thinking the same thing at you. You insulted me several times. But I'm not wrong. Not every champion update has a region update and not every region update has a champion update.

Also even though azir started what you could call a big shift in shurima it really got fleshed out a lot lot more with taliyah. To the point it would be fair to call that the real shurima update

macromite1 votes

I didn't insult, I stated that what you posted was irrelevant. I only said one thing was false, which it was, but that was on wording more than on meaning. which means I had no qualms about accuracy.

I suppose I can epalin it quickly here.

I'm talking about a specific situation, one that deals with the specific nature of new areas being added to the modern map of runeterra, specifically areas that were originally introduced before the lore revamp and needed to be updated to fit the current lore, and only those areas that were updated after bilgewater.

You're trying to say that my point is false because I did not encompass every piece of those updates and made no mentions of updates that were not areas of old lore being updated to fit into the modern lore.

however, as my point was not about any of those things, it made your point irrelevant. not innacurate. irrelevant.

also, if you don't get it now, I think I'm about done with this. I think we've both spent more than enough time arguing over you not understanding the specificity of my original point.

Peace
