I thought you guys all said, even Xenogenic and Meddler that his mini rework was a holdover for like 1,5 years til full VGU. I want my horse item 3070

Well... it hasn't been 1.5 years since his mini-rework, for one thing. I would also love to see a quote that they said 1.5 years. Riot doesn't plan that far ahead for VGUs; they do the ones that have good directions now, and when it's time, they do ideation on several candidates and again work on the ones for which they have good ideas.

They don't decide a year in advance who they are going to work on. That's just not how it works.

We expect he'll get one eventually. We talked about him as a possibility for next year however and concluded there were other champs who needed a VGU more. That meant that a smaller update for Xin made sense, given there's definite improvement possible working within most of the constraints of the current kit and a VGU's at least 1.5 years away.

At least

That doesn't mean it's 1.5 years away. That means there is absolutely 0% possibility that it would happen before that time. And only after that would it be considered.

Riot also just doesn't keep a tier list. Since the Xin changes landed pretty well, he doesn't need a VGU as badly as some of the others on the current tier one list. As Reav3 stated in that post, it isn't really an official ledger; he just listed the ones that come up a lot.
