Will Tyrant Swain have the luxury of keeping his unique animations when he gets reworked?

Would be sad to see a batch of low priced skins surpass a semi-legendary when his rework comes

I'm sure they won't do that. Have they done that to any other champs that came out that had their own animations?

Though, to be honest, they could make me not care at all if they just release Dragon Master Swain along with the update. I would swoon.

I am a swain main.

I think his updated pass should be restore 3-20% hp OR mana depending on which is lower based on dmg dealt .

his q is fine, i only suggest it cd be 10 sec at all ranks(would actually like all his abilites 10 sec cd at all ranks so they are in sync(q & w both 10cd at max rank anyway, an e already like that) an that still longer cd than most other champ abilities that do even more dmg)

his w I feel like it could be turned into his gap closer, currently you snare someone , you go in an by time your r is in range they are unsnared. i would like it to where you can reactivate it for more mana an you go where your w was. also decrease range an increase are effected

e is where the main update is needed, before they changed his q from target to aoe his e was his main source of poke an dmg, not it just bland an doesn't do much an turned him into focus minions champ. I also feel this is where it could the most make him seem like a master tactician.

change his e into aoe(so works better with pass, range 700 area 325 so all his abilities sync up an you can actually lead w/ his e ) but here is where can be added "WHILE marked if target DIES furture dmg is increased by 1-5%,& if target kills swain their future dmg to swain is reduced by 1-5%" an it gets quotes, kill: "this time was easy enough, next time will be even easier", died "you won this battle, but you will lose the war." I was even thinking adding while marked dmg to swain is reduced by 20%.

his r just add when hit send out another raven at attacker.

If i remember correctly they never really removed a feature of a skin for a champ that got an update. If a skin has unique animations,it'll still have unique animations. Sure said animations might be different than they were before(compare hyena warwicks new laugh with his old one),but they'll still be there.

So Tyrant swain will likely remain a skin that features unique skill effects and different walking animations. If we're lucky it might even get its own recall.
