As announced in the recent Champion Roadmap article, Dr. Mundo has been confirmed by Riot Games as the next champion to be reworked; however, we will have to wait until 2021 to get our hands on him. Subsequently, Riot has revealed more details, such as the fact that his tankiness will be retained, the ability to throw cleavers will remain, and new skills are currently being tested.
However, the new skill set for Dr. Mundo is not necessarily what gamers are most concerned about; rather, what players want to see a significant change in is his appearance. The Zaun madman has an extremely outdated design, with movements and walking styles that are very clumsy. While these might have been acceptable in League of Legends back in 2012-2013, they are far too unappealing now to entice players to choose him, let alone play him well.
And Riot Games did not disappoint gamers when just hours ago, Riot Twin Enso, the person in charge of Dr. Mundo’s rework, announced a series of proposed designs for this champion. What’s particularly special is that besides the somewhat scary, rugged, or bizarre designs, the most unique and sketched images are of Hand Mundo, depicting Mundo in the form of a hand. This has left some gamers horrified while others are amused by this new update.
And they said: Whatever, Hand Mundo.
– Give me the sketch of Mundo.
– What?
– The sketch of Mundo, give it here.
– Oh okay, got it.
And then Hand Mundo was born.
You really overdid it with the design, buddy.
Hand Mundo is the best Mundo, come on Riot you know this.
But seriously dude, why create something so grotesque?
And then he will attack with his giant tongue, it’s just too funny and amazing.
Perhaps the design of Mundo as a hand above is the most humorous and bizarre thing that Riot Games has created for this champion. Just imagining its walking posture or normal attack animations is already horrifying. Maybe this is just another comedic act from Riot staff, while Riot August creates many powerful skills, perhaps Riot Twin Enso enjoys making humorous designs like this?
