[IDEA] Wall "Jump" Effects

See, with champions like Graves, Vi, Lee Sin, etc. where they have skills that can go through walls, how about we add a small effect to make it a bit more appealing to the eye?

For example, in a wall made up of trees, it should be programmed for it to **animate leaves bursting from it, or the trees themselves shaking whenever a champion goes through them. **Same with rock walls at Baron or Dragon, there should be a cloud of dust or a bit of rubble animating as the champion penetrates the wall.

I think this will give the most static part of the map, the walls, a bit more life and realism; since we cannot have holes in them whenever a unit passes through this should be the next best thing.

Maybe it's just me but that seems like a lot of work. It is a good idea but not worth it. Maybe it'll be implemented one day but for right now that is a big extra.

I feel like this would be a great addition to the map but maybe not necessarily a cost-effective one.

In order for this to LOOK right, they'd have to adjust these animations per spell per champion that has the capability of traversing environment with their escapes. Then they have to determine which of those escapes would actually create an animation in the environment realistically, I.E. teleport dash compared to an actual jump/dash, and adjust the map's response to it accordingly.

Considering there're multiple champions with very different gap closers and many different locations on the map in which they can use those gap closers, I don't think this is a realistic objective to hope for.

It'd be awesome, don't get me wrong. I just don't think this is going to be considered because of the workload/reward ratio.

IMO I think that will add to much stuff going on. And I dont know how to word this but, I dont think the animation for the wall jump effect would fit for most champions.
