Swain

Can some one please tell me is Swain is at some point soon going to get a VU ? The recent TR was great but I think that he needs a full makeover. A small VU like Kassa would be great, but I think that a new splash art ( Correct me if I am wrong, but I think that he is one of the few champs that never got a new SA) would be in order. The Ability Icons I belive can be updated as well, but if just the VU and Splash art update would happen, I would be happy as a lark

The sole fact that Swain got a texture rebalance means that he isn't getting a VU anytime soon.(because where would be the point in doing a TR for a champ whose VU is coming soon?).

And tbh I think he doesn't need a VU that much,many champs have it far worse than him. Currently we know that Kassadin is getting the next model udate,Ryze is getting the next full VU,Poppy is getting the next relaunch and Taric&Eve are being worked on,but are hard to do right,so they'll take a while.

You are wrong.

Riot confirmed that TR doesn't delay any TU VU at all.

As for Swain I think he needs just TU but VU would be the best. The new splash is really needed and I just don't know why Riot is being absorbed in changing splash art of champs who aren't in need of new SA.

I know that very well,however the opposite isn't necessarily the case. You know Tristana,Sion,Kassadin,etc.never recieved a TR,because their updates were so close to being finished. There was simply no point in doing a TR since their updates weren't far away anyway.

Now one can make a point about the Ryze TR,because Ryze is the next champ to get a full VU,yet he gets a TR,but this can be either due to his update still being far away(tristanas update was also announced over 2 months before its actual release) or because they were mistaken about how much time Ryzes updates were going to take.

As a Swain main I can safely say he doesn't need a VU. He looks just fine as is.

A new splash, on the other hand... that would be quite nice. Although if you're reading this, rito... try not to portray him in some ridiculous action pose, okay?

I dunno man, his birds look a little choppy. Then again, I play tyrant swain, so I get slightly better particles than base swain.

Actually, you're right. I've been playing with Tyrant for so long that I can barely remember what base Swain looks like anymore.

It's not pretty. You know those sexy feathery-claw particles on his W? You know how his ult form looks really well-animated in motion?

The other skins have some catching up to do, s'all I'm saying.

Yeah, out of curiosity I looked it up using LolKing's model viewer. Thanks to the texture overhaul it's not too terrible, but still... eugh.

I made a post for him, seems like he will be getting a new base splash art
