New splash arts for Mount Targon champions?

As many of you might know, the lore of Mount Targon and its champions: DianaDiana LeonaLeona and PantheonPantheon, have been updated recently. It has also been said that (all?) champions will get new splash arts to keep their appearance up-to-date with the in-game versions:

For a long while, we’ve been thinking about old splash art, specifically splash art belonging to the skins of previously updated champions. As you are likely aware, most champion updates have not been accompanied by comprehensive splash art reworks, creating a problem where certain splashes are outdated or inaccurate representations of what you actually see in-game. Luckily, we have a solution to this problem: Do. All. The. Splashes.

With many speculations about the 2 empty slots on Mount Targon, saying that the next champion will probably be one to fill one of those two slots, I'm wondering if they will give Diana, Leona and Pantheon the new splash arts sooner (aka a priority queue), to keep up with the updated splash art the new Mt. Targon champion will get. It would make sense, if they do so, Mt. Targon will be up-to-date entirely. I would look forward to that.

**What do you guys think? **

The thing is that Leona,diana and pantheon only received an updated lore. Their ingame models weren't changed and so they won't get new splash arts.

I think Dianas splash art is fine and doesn't need to be changed. I love Leo's current splash art but wouldn't say no to an update. Pantheon's is good right now too, but I feel like they could definitely update it to make it feel more like the new Pantheon.
