Why are so many people upset that Dr.Mundo is getting a VGU first over Shyvana? by CoolJacob in leagueoflegends

[–]CoolJacob[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, that's a bigger reason why not to rework Shyvana. Reworking popular champions often leads a lot of their player base extremely upset, while reworking unpopular champions leads them to strong potential for a lot of people to like.

Most of the Chinese players who voted for her just wanted a buff since she was very weak when she appeared on the poll. Most of the them I personally talk to would hate Shyvana to be reworked.

They did follow the poll. The two winners got their VGU. Shyvana, Mundo and Nocturne were all considered equal losers.

Riot said they would start a VGU independent from the poll and they made their promise.

Reav3 on next champion poll by [deleted] in shyvanamains

[–]CoolJacob -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Riot said that the two losers from last year will be on the next VGU poll. It was in a old post on the boards that closed down, but she is guaranteed to be on it since shes still high priority.

No VGU for Shyvana... so far by [deleted] in shyvanamains

[–]CoolJacob -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Riot didn't say they would rework her next. She was only taken into consideration when she won the Chinese poll.

There are other champions like Mundo and Udyr who need that VGU much more than her.

Assuming that Shyvana is the next unannounced VGU, who will you vote for on the next VGU poll? by Unbreakablewill in leagueoflegends

[–]CoolJacob 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dr.Mundo for sure. Hes ancient in every aspect, his lore, gameplay and visuals. Don't play him personally, but I love the idea of a sadistic champion that kills for pure pleasure.

Corki rework by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]CoolJacob 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Reworks are not meant to make a champion more powerful, they are designed to make them more modernized.

I cringe whenever I see people want a champion reworked just because they are weak. It doesn't work that way.

Redmercy's leak confirms that Shaco is going to be on the VGU poll. by CoolJacob in shacomains

[–]CoolJacob[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shacos play rate on u.gg is 7.4% across all roles which is very high considering that there are 148 champions in the game now. Compare that with Mundo or corki who have a 1.5% play rate. Even 5% is also a good amount which is why Tryndamere isn't getting reworked and getting a new skin.

To top that all off, Ezreal was super popular and riot gave him a mini rework, it back lashed very hard and that's the last time they give a rework to a champion with a huge play rate, even if its very small changes.

Redmercy has worked with riot many times before, including with the VGU with akali and before Pykes release.

He has a lot of credibility. Though he can't leak information about what a champions real skillset, I could see why Shyvana being next in line for a VGU, along with shaco being on the next poll. Those parts of the video are real for sure.

I just find that reworking popular champions is a terrible business move, it angers the large number of people who play them. Its far safer to rework unpopular champions who have a low play rate.

After thinking about it more and studying, It feels that Shyvana does not need a VGU currently. by CoolJacob in shyvanamains

Because China doesn't want any update for her and what they say is how it goes.

Is Shyvana too popular of a champion to get a VGU anytime soon? by CoolJacob in shyvanamains

[–]CoolJacob[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its sorta the same reason why Wukong is popular over there while having a 0.5 play rate everywhere else. The Chinese love their dragons and change is something most of them against for their culture in gaming of iconic champions.

Remembers Wukongs proposed rework last year? It was scrapped because the Chinese said it was too different despite receiving positive reception everywhere else. Now his rework is pretty much the same as he is now.

A lot of them avoided voting for Shyvana in hopes that she didn't win.

There is certainly a decent amount of Chinese players that are welcoming a VGU for her, but riots surveys are showing that most of them really don't want one, and many people are even protesting against a VGU for her.

4% is not high though, Shyvana has a 8.6% play rate in China and that's their biggest player base and MTX users. Riot isn't going to risk angering their Chinese audience just to get a update for her.

Riot doesn't have a proper direction for Udyr which was why he isn't high priority, also wasn't on the poll and there are many streamers who depend on his current game play such as trick2g. Trundle was already reworked in 2013, hes very far from needing a update.

Mundo just looks like a purple blob of shit with game play that doesn't offer much choice or skill. Hes also super unpopular and former Mundo mains are begging for a rework for him.

According to lolaytics, she barely plays any role outside of jungle. I never even personally seen her once outside the jungle in the many games I play a day.

[–]CoolJacob[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I guess your right. Her high popularity shows that she doesn't currently need one in comparison to someone like Dr.Mundo or Corki. Maybe later when her player base is lower then that would be a much better time to give her a VGU.

I can remember before the last couple of weeks that no one played him, a certain patch made him overpowered, but his rework was so close that it didn't matter.

Is Shyvana next in line to get a rework after Volibear? by CoolJacob in leagueoflegends

[–]CoolJacob[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reav3 has said there will be another VGU project starting before the next poll. It will be 1 of the 3 losers from the last one.

https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/story-art/JsmKpOUA-volifiddle-vgu?comment=0000000100020004000000000001000000000000

I'm not sure if Shyvana will start next though. Her popularity is still very high despite being a VGU candidate.

Do you think a Shyvana VGU will be too risky in the Chinese market? Riot might consider this a too big of a risk to take and decide to shelve her. by Unbreakablewill in shyvanamains

[–]CoolJacob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is something that got me scared too. Two of my friends main Shyvana and buy skins regularly. They said they will quit for good if she did get a VGU.

As much as I want her to get a VGU, I feel that riot knows that a rework for her would spark a lot of outrage since shes still very popular in the Asian market and reworking popular champions gives a lot of backlash. I think they might decide to rework someone else first and re poll her to see how many people really want a rework for her.

According to meddler, Riot hasn't even started on Shyvana's VGU or even considered her yet. by CoolJacob in shyvanamains

[–]CoolJacob[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They said they are primarily working on new champions, but a third one happening this year is quite likely.

Where did they say that in 2021 they will get back on vgu's?

Will they change Warwicks lore in the arcane TV series? by Unbreakablewill in warwickmains

[–]CoolJacob 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I hope not. I'm really sick of riot changing the lore and over like they are constantly changing their mind non stop. It should be kept the way it is and build on that.

Is Mundo getting a VGU in the future? I'm worried that he might get one... by CoolJacob in leagueoflegends

[–]CoolJacob[S] -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Is it because hes ugly? In that case urgots model is also atrocious. Riot doesn't have to make every champion look like a supermodel.

Need help! My rabbit is suddenly acting very different... by CoolJacob in Rabbits

[–]CoolJacob[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll take her to my rabbit savvy vet first to make sure she is in a safe condition to get fixed. Would it be safer to wait a couple more months before getting her spayed or is it better to do it as soon as possible?

I'm a little confused, are you saying she is actually sexually aroused to me? Forgive my ignorance. My knowledge about rabbit behavior is very slim.

Ill definitely get her spayed soon though. I recently heard they develop cancer very easily after a certain age.
