So, since the poll ended in a tie, that means that both of them will be reworked, right Kabam?
ETA: Just realized the poll isn't exactly over yet. But it's been 50/50 for hours now, so I can't imagine it'll change too much.

Yeah.... Stop the count
Ur not listening as u clearly havent read the message the rework is literally summoner choice rework meaning its like summoner choice it will come whenever on a random month
Say this buff champion was called a, and he was planned to be released at the same time as champion b. They don't have much on common, but it doesn't matter because it's just a random month. Now imagine they decide to buff a second champion called c. They had only planned to buff 1 champion so had only left 1 champion space open next year for when this buff could drop, so have already planned 11 months of champions and stories.
If they more need to find a place to drop champion c, they would need to find a month in which there's a character that they can move to a new month later in the year or possibly even the year after. The issue is that most other months that aren't summoners choice months usually have much more connection between the 2 characters and the story of the month will be planned around that. You could switch one of those champions out with champion c, but then the champion you've swapped out will have to then be pushed off until they have a month where they could fit narratively, even if it's not the strongest connection, but this would then push another champion out of the lineup as well as requiring 2 months at least to have their stories reworked in order to remove references to the original planned champion.
This is ofcourse assuming that the work required to make the champion that the second buff pushed out of the schedule hadn't started, but if it had which is very likely it now means that the work that had already gone into modelling animation and champion kit design is essentially a waste of time and they have even less time to work on the second buff.
They've already said that when the summoners choice vote gets decided they literally start working on them immediately and there are designers who are essentially reserved to work on whoever wins, this doesn't account for a second champion buff at all.
Please read everything I'm saying because I really don't think you're getting the point I'm making
