I think we can all agree that the older yordles in league right now look quite old and can use updates, VeigarVeigar , RumbleRumble , CorkiCorki , KennenKennen, LuluLulu . I know Most of the champions will eventually get a visual update to stay in line with the new champions, But I think it is about time to show our Yordles some love.

When i read the title my first thought was Kled as an "older" yordle Was prepared to rant that Kled is an adorable redneck yordle as he is

Yordles need real lore, as well. And to never look like this ever again https://66.media.tumblr.com/adf6faa0f2166c7784b5291fe3b134ea/tumblr_inline_ou2vrqofYX1rb8lr1_540.png

Poppy is the best yordle imo

cant wait until the day teemo gets a vu and a new splash, i really wonder if they ever will update his splash bc its just so iconic

Rumble still looks like a fish.

The only one on that list that strikes me as ugly is corki, his model is bad and I can't even tell if he is a yordle.

I'd add Lulu to the list; she currently looks somewhat odd compared to the other two female yordles (at least in her base skin). Her kit is pretty fine, but her model and effects could use some updates for sure.

Please! I need cuter yordles

What about Teemo? With current VU is a $20 dollar skin. :')

Has nobody talked about Lulu ? Her splash is good but her In-game model is ugly.

this is why we only get the fanservice shit.

I kinda want yordels to live all over the place outside of piltover and make it the case that when yordels and humans coexist they start making science

i mean I'm stoned so that might be stupid af

but like, it'd allow more interaction between champs like Heimerdinger and Tristana as well as a crossover as the Evil Archmage Veigar attacks piltover and threatains it's very future, Jayce comes to fight for the sake of tomorrow. Also he blows up a lot of vital infrastructure in his super hero antics but is still seen as a hero

I love Lulu, but I wish they'd make her look more akin to Poppy and Tristana.

amumu is a yordel now so maybe him too

Oh. . . I thought you were talking about Old Yordles in a literal sense. . .

Now that you brought up the subject, I was thinking of giving Corki an ability overhaul as well just so his kit would fit in to the whole Dog Fighting theme. When I think of dog fights, I think of planes trying to tail each other, firing their guns and missiles at their enemies. So perhaps some kind of passive or ability where Corki tails an opponent and fires all his guns at his opponent simultaneously.

That idea can be reserved for another dog fighting champion as well. Speaking of which, I'd like a new set of pilot champions who are all part of the Screaming Yipsnakes as a way to explore Corki's lore on his flight background. The many missions he's participated in, and some of his most daring and most dangerous battles. I mean Piltover as far as I can see is the only city with flying machines so its most likely Corki has fought against flying monsters throughout his career and is damn good at it too.

Personally I want Rumble to be friends with Ekko. Going around the junkyards of Zaun. Because if there is anything better than one mohawks, its double mohawks. Ekko Rumble

And I think they will be a good pair, just like Ziggs and Jinx with the updated lore.

yep, would be nice to see VGU for the outdated yordles, Corki and his "legendary" skins who look like chromas. U forgot Teemo and his 2009, untouched & outdated model.

Definitely agree that the Older Yordles need a visual touchup. I think the only Yordle pre-2014 that looks decent where he is might actually be Ziggs, he looks fine the way he is imo.

The reason is simple: all of them are males. Males are yucky.


Even though what I said above is a joke, old male yordles do look more outdated (visually and thematically) than female yordles. Only Ziggs, Veigar and Fizz get a pass, imo. Some need an upgrade, at least to be in line with the rest.

Both Kennen and Corki are on the VGU list. Veigar is fine as is, because you can't see his face (part of his fantasy). I would even go so far as to say Teemo needs a VGU too, but Teemo is untouchable.

######I'm not considering Kled and Gnar as "older yordles".
