League of Legends’ next VGU goes to Skarner

The results are in. League of Legends fans have cast their votes over who the MOBA game’s next big VGU (visual and gameplay update) will go to, and the winner is none other than the Crystal Vanguard himself – Skarner. Released a decade ago, the champion is certainly a worthy winner of an overhaul, and has beat out four other League of Legends champions to take the top spot in the fan poll.

“With a decisive victory, the champion that will receive the next VGU will be Skarner!” the devs announce in a blog post, highlighting that Skarner won by quite the margin. The fighter champ won a whopping 33.4% of the vote, compared to Shyvana in second place (19.6%), Tryndamere in third (17.3%), with Kog’Maw (15.3%) and Nocturne (14.4%) rounding off the list at the bottom.

Given that Skarner’s a decade old and only has six skins so far, he seems a fitting choice for the game’s next big VGU. There’s no word on when this will arrive just yet, given the vote’s only just closed, but the devs say that it’ll be “a couple months until we get started”. They add that we can keep an eye out for updates on his VGU “this year”.
