Editor Notes: -Blue essence used to be called influence points. -You cannot move during the Aatrox revive (post rework and remove it later on) - You got some Influence points for getting cases right on the tribunal.
I felt the influence points, been playing since before seasons was really a thing, but had 2 accounts so my skins is lost after my initial account I lost the password to (damn my youngness at the time) but this is the reason why I have all champs, after the convert away from runes you were paid out basically for all the runes you had, I had so many I literally bought all champs with now blue essence, and still have 100k+
you also used to get influence points after each game, you used to get more for winning a game and depending on how it lasted (you'd get like 130 ip i think for a win for like 25-30 minutes) and 70-80 for a lose
I like how Riot has billions of dollars and are one of the richest companies in the world now, but can't give us holiday maps, but before they were rich we had Halloween and Christmas maps.
@@cattysplat I think it's more just capitalism at work. When they were a small indie company they were people making a game they thought was fun and putting things they thought would be fun into it. Now they're super big every decision has to consider money spent and money earned from it, which means a lot of the for fun things just get lost.
Lmao, and here was me with no crit runes or rune pages for other roles but instead just 19 different rune pages for Katarina so I could take the best one I could think to make for each matchup. I miss having a champion I adored playing...
And don’t forget, that IP (influence points) the old currency, was WAY more worth than BE today. You didn’t have hextech nor skin shards or anything. The only way to get IP was by playing games. I think it was like 90-130 per win and 40-70 per lose.. but idk it was scaling with the game length. But in order to buy a new champion, which would cost 6300, it took like 50 games. And you had to buy runes… it was a nightmare I remember that.
I had all champions, 9 runes pages and almost all relevant expensive runes (including MS/LS quints, hybrid pen marks and quints etc.) The runes setup genuinely felt op, but it was so fun to run unconventional runes (full MS setup)
Huh? It's way easier to get BE today than it was to get IP. And no more runes to buy, so more currency directly for champions. You had to grind a week to get a champion, now you grind a day and you can afford at least 2.
Yeah or stun you, deal 1/8 of your hp, not pop his shield and be useless unless you get giga fed or have some youtube highlight moments@@sidneydykes5032
In S3 Riot had an incrdible run with good Champions. I remember being hyped for every single release and they always delivered. 8/9 Chamions are really good designed and didnt need big changes. Regarding Aatrox: He was the weakest design as he was just another take on the "big guy slapps you with sword until you die" but he had an interesting twist with the W stance change. I think it is a shame that they removed him from the game. They did rework hi in a few minor ways keeping his base kit completely unchanged like 6 Month before his big "Rework" and after that he was in an amazing shape. Basically the Community that was hyped for the rework suddenly didnt want it anymore as the mini rework fixed most of his problems. Than the rework hit and basically deleted old Aatrox and replaced him with what most called "a worse riven clone". He got a few bigger changes afterwards until he got to the point where he is now. Nowadays he is a pretty good designed Champion with a unique identity but I still wish they didnt just delete his old version especially after basically fixing it
Oh yeah, it was funny cause Aatrox was never played *really* in competitive. First time he becomes viable as a solo q and competitive pick. They reworked him 😭😭
@@nashambenyisrael7689 yeah I miss Valor too. Also loved old fiora but I feel like her old R was not well designed. IMO untargetability isnt something that should really be in the game. But yeah old League had so much nice things and most champions they released were pretty well designed. Unlike nowadays where like 9 Out of the last 10 champions are basically failed designs
What I would wish: A new game-mode: call it "Oldschool League" or whatever. Includes: -Champion's patches when they were first introduced -Old Map -Twisted Treeline -Dominion WE NEED IT
1% crit was nasty back in the day. I grinded the rune pages like a mf, i had 20 of them for different roles, champs etc. Even 20% crit rune page to pickup when i felt funny. What a time to be alive man.
Hello dude, just randomly found that channel , thanks for bringing me old memories , i'm a season 0 beta player... I miss old times, the game used to be so fun and enjoyable to play
My man. Runes costed Influence Points. 😎 I will give one trivia as OG Vi main. There used to be a mastery called "Improved Recall" which reduced recall cast time by a second. However for some reason charging abilities (like Vi's Q and Varus's Q) had a side effect if you took it. Normally recalling durring the charge up would put the spell on whole duration of cooldown. But with this mastery charging up and pressing recall would cancel the ability without putting it on cooldown, which meant that you could bait people escapes and flashes and then reset the cooldown and do it again until you got sure you hit it.
Since you hearted the comment I will give one more trivia. Sometimes after Sion's or Poppy's rework, Riot changed behavior of the charging abilities. The amount of checks durring charge up was causing my then shitty internet to raise ping from 38ms to more than 200ms. So I got in touch with a former pro player who started to work for Riot and send him Wireshark trace and video of it and the issue was fixed in less than a week. :D
I really enjoyed the old league of legends because it was very GAMEY compared to the streamlined things we have now. Also I miss the old school animations and color palette which made everything felt hand drawn and personnel.
I hate when companys shut down awesome projects, but don't offer the same experience themself. Do a Oldschool league server or let the Fans do it for fuck sake.
They could release "league 100" with the 1st 100 champs (up to Jayce). This was about mid season 2. It still has the classic feel without the brokenness of the super early times
God damn this ranked champ select music in the beginning does something to me man. Excitement, goosebumps, happiness and even fear all combined. Ah yea the good old fucking times.
Its enough to make a grown man cry, I strongly miss old League of Legends. It was a totally different game, I'll never forgive Riot for CnD ordering Chronoshift project!
You've got such a good voice for this! Also love the nostalgia, there's so much stuff I've forgot about. I still miss the old "match found" sound effect.
I'm liking the series! A request tho: When you get to the Katarina rework (season 6) pls make sure to include her earlier rework from season 2 as ppl do forget that and you didn't include it before. Her W used to be a self buff that gave her next Q grievous wounds or her E Dodge, but Dodge was a removed stat after season 1 so they changed her into her best form where: Her W was a circle melee range ability that gave her movement speed when it hit an enemy champion and her E gave her temporary damage reduction. I used to absolutely LOVE playing that season 2-6 Katarina, it's why I fell in love with the game in the first place, would be nice to see it mentioned. Laning against Cho'gaths and Gragass and Fioras and winning by E'ing to them when they didn't expect it then using the speed from the W on them to sidestep their attempted punishes was probably the most laning phase fun I've ever had in the game. I've always been salty that they reworked LeBlanc around the same time as Kat s6 but then changed LB back but never changed Kata back :(
i miss old zyra, her plants were fewer but so deadly, also i think you forgot to mention the old summoner spells.. garrison, revive etc but great video
finally the long awaited part 2!! as the last time it was very nostalgic thanks for inviting me back to my Childhood! Have a good day and keep up the videos... i think there is sooo much left u could potentially talk abt in the LoL Scene
I had a friend I asked to 1v1 me with like every champion I thought I might go against that they could play so I could come up with rune page ideas on how to lane against them as my (pre-season 6) Katarina lol. I do love being able to 'build' characters in games for different situations, it's what's made me replay Baldur's Gate 3 so much lately lmao!
I think if runes were free and you could change runes in champ select, the second mastery iteration (18-12), Fervor, Thunderlord's, CoC, etc. That system is much more interesting than what Runes Reforged has given us.
I, very well, remember when Jinx and Lucian came out. Adc main back then, and today as well. I still play Jinx, and got *JINX* tattooed on my back. Lucian, not so much, but I remember reading lore back then, and Senna was mentioned, so everyone was like ‘It’d be so cool to have her in the game as well’, so I play her now almost as much as Jinx.
2:37 We almost got old map private servers with project chronobreak. They reverse engineered tons of broken stuff, broke through all problems riot would probably be unable to fix themselves. Then they got threatened with C&D letter, and now it's dead. Blizzard did the same thing with Wow classic private servers and then made official classic for people to lay soon after. But it's been like 6 years now. it's not happening. Riot is too souless
Dude it was so good, Quinn use to be so strong because of valor she was my favorite champion. I wish they gave her that ability back for her ult because it was the best.
Wanted to say, your delivery is great and the editing is really well-done. When I stumbled across the first one I was really surprised how small the channel was. Your content is 100% punching above its weight class rn. Keep it up!
Beauty of the old rune system is the sense of progression, it gave lol the air of an rpg, you felt your champions grow stronger overtime which was cool, a novelty of old school gaming
Back in the day the only way to get Medieval twitch and Grey Warwick was to refer and invite (i think 100 ) people to league, and they had to get to a certain level. I had them unlocked by doing that. Unfortunately you can now get it by getting a good honor level. I wish that they had made it like championship riven with 2 different versions, one for the OG, and one for the new version.
Just came across part one randomly and just finished this. I started back in Season 3 ( Lissandra was the new champ ), thank you for bringing back all this nostalgia and being really damn funny. You also forgot that you had to buy Rune Pages with RP or 6300 IP, so apart from the cost of runes if you wanted more pages it would be an extra 6300 on top of it. Hopefully you bring out more videos like this.
@@Sitback I knew you would, which is why I left such a lovely comment, but yeah, your two video's on the old league of legends and its history are brilliantly reminding of the old days which is what I enjoyed most.
I remember Akalis old kit and needing to have a specific rune page in order to proc her ad and ap buff... ahhh good times. Also I remember the big thresh change were his souls bonus attack was tied to his Q so it was a no brainer to max Q, then they shifted it to his E.
Tribunal nowadays would actually just be peak content. Edit: The old Rune system was when I loved playing Support Shyvana with Ascension Tali. Gold for days, speed boost, and roaming all game at 6.
I play in this game from season 2. I watched this changes in time and it's always very impressive for me how League of Legends grow. Many years.. I will always have mana potion in my heart and AD teemo. :
When I was new to the game (joined after the Poppy rework) I thought I downloaded an older version because the new map looks washed out and stale whereas the old map had more color and it felt more cozy and decorated.
I want the old runes and masteries system to come back. We could custom and cook what we wanted. It was so cool. Of course, all the runes would be free and available to all players. But I know they will never do it.
Just btw, there were also different tier runes, so as you lvl up you were able to then get higher level runes. WHich basically meant you wasted IP if you bought the tier 1 runes. But hitting lvl 30 took like 200+ games without exp boosts
I still have my box set from 2009. Most don't remember the old dodge runes that Jax and nidalee used to have making them untargetable. Old shaco and heifer turret/boxes you could stack at the nexus stopping minions from going down lanes. Then when you let them Go you would have a trillion minions running down lane at 4 5 minutes. Shit was scary
Man i really miss these times.. i wish riot would do something like wow did and bring back the CLASSIC league of legends. I'm talking about s1 till season 3 or 4 at max
man season 3 is my first exposure to league cause i came from dota 1 and my friend recommended the game i love and hate and im still playing it for 11 yrs and yes aatrox is my fave champ too
Insane that I really played on the Halloween Map. That's something only a few people can say. And I miss the OG Winter Map with the Tons of Snow. Yeah it hurts the eyes but it was awesome.
Oh the good ol' rune pages...I had 9 of them. 9 ! Full unique rune pages. 7 for general use like lethality,magic pen, support enchanter,tank.... and 2 specificly tailored for my favourite champs at the time. Wukong and Janna. The day Riot removed rune pages I was devastated for obvious reasons. Especially because I bought said rune pages with real money (the runes I grind for for months). And the compensation I got wasn't even close to what I invested into having them.
When they got rid of the old system and refunded everyones runes and rune pages, they didn't even give a full refund. I was so mad, I had 9 rune pages, all bought with IP.
Love the video, straight gas. Just one small correction, old Aatrox revive was stationary, he couldn't move during it. You're mixing it up with the post-rework revive, that's when he got the ability to move during it. It used to be a 25% slow, so he could still maneuver around quite freely, before being nerfed to a 99% slow during the revive, which is basically the same as not being able to move. Then just a couple patches later the revive got taken out completely. The thing that set old Aatrox's revive apart from Anivia and Zac was the fact that you couldn't deal damage to him while he was reviving.
I don't miss the old rune that takes forever to build... However you have the freedom to create your own stats you could try hybrid sets it's alot better IMO and placing down rune felt nice in a odd way haha after grinding many matches you finally own it
Ah yes, my peak content has arrived. Hope you keep making videos, been looking foreard to this but I forgot to sub… luckily this vid got recommended lol.
I still remember only having 2 rune pages in the old client. 1 for ap and the other for ad, didn't have the luxury of customizing them based on champion/role since I had little IP
1.2x-4.5x the cost of an expensive champion for a rune page that can be reused for any champ sounds about right to me. I honestly fucked with the costs of the old rune pages. Even when paying real money for extra pages, i thought it was pretty reasonable
Wish you went over league of assassins. There was a period when they released Rengar, Khazix, and Diana as well as reworking Akali and buffing Katarina i think. This was also around the time they released Cleaver and Tiamat which stacked. Basically, you just weren't allowed to play ADC for a while. But got damn, Fiora ult with 5 Tiamat's was funny. Oh, and old Saraka. She used to counter AD mid lanes because her heal also gave armor and her q was spammable like Eve's q. Basically a Master Yi or whatever would jump on you, you heal, take no damage, and drop stars on their head till they die. Old league was great.
They NEED to bring back the Tribunal %100 the automated system is so easy to dupe and also players who aren't even being toxic can get banned where as people who know what words to avoid (myself) are still just as toxic if not more, automated systems can't detect when someone is intentionally soft inting yet anyone watching the game its very obvious.
The new map looks shit at the normal contrast and gamma settings. Tip is to increase these until the colors pop more, then it looks almost like the OG map!
I still remember old runes. I was always a top player, my best friend was supp player. I will never forget that one moment when enemy tresh killed him wihtout using skill and scored first blood, because he had 1% crit chance and landed 2 crits in a row, wich caught my bro out of guard soo hard that he did not even flashed away. xD

Beauty of the old rune system is the sense of progression, it gave lol the air of an rpg, you felt your champions grow stronger overtime which was cool, a novelty of old school gaming
Back in the day the only way to get Medieval twitch and Grey Warwick was to refer and invite (i think 100 ) people to league, and they had to get to a certain level. I had them unlocked by doing that. Unfortunately you can now get it by getting a good honor level. I wish that they had made it like championship riven with 2 different versions, one for the OG, and one for the new version.
Just came across part one randomly and just finished this. I started back in Season 3 ( Lissandra was the new champ ), thank you for bringing back all this nostalgia and being really damn funny. You also forgot that you had to buy Rune Pages with RP or 6300 IP, so apart from the cost of runes if you wanted more pages it would be an extra 6300 on top of it. Hopefully you bring out more videos like this.
i still remember it like yesterday, me and my friend group at that time on skype, being hyped about the new gamemode DOMINION! crazy times...
dayum the old league of legends theme song..so great
chilling with mates on teamspeak and laughing at tribunal cases...rip
As someone who started playing in season 11, bro I love these vids as i wish i could experience all these for fun modes but can't :(
Absolutely the nicest video on league ive watched in forever, same with the one I watched earlier, thanks a lot man
I appreciate it brother 🙏 comments like this inspire me to keep making better videos
@@Sitback I knew you would, which is why I left such a lovely comment, but yeah, your two video's on the old league of legends and its history are brilliantly reminding of the old days which is what I enjoyed most.
I remember Akalis old kit and needing to have a specific rune page in order to proc her ad and ap buff... ahhh good times. Also I remember the big thresh change were his souls bonus attack was tied to his Q so it was a no brainer to max Q, then they shifted it to his E.
league back in 2011-2013 was golden!
Tribunal nowadays would actually just be peak content.
Edit: The old Rune system was when I loved playing Support Shyvana with Ascension Tali. Gold for days, speed boost, and roaming all game at 6.
man i loved watching this, thanks man for this content , the good old days :)
this is so sick!! i just started playing league maybe a yearish ago, and seeing this has been rlly cool, i wish i started playing back then ahaha
I play in this game from season 2. I watched this changes in time and it's always very impressive for me how League of Legends grow. Many years.. I will always have mana potion in my heart and AD teemo. :
that 1% crit , won me an early skirmish as twitch by hitting double crits .... good old days
When I was new to the game (joined after the Poppy rework) I thought I downloaded an older version because the new map looks washed out and stale whereas the old map had more color and it felt more cozy and decorated.
I want the old runes and masteries system to come back. We could custom and cook what we wanted. It was so cool. Of course, all the runes would be free and available to all players. But I know they will never do it.
do you guys remember double IP weekand grinds?
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS BRO I FORGOT
As someone who started playing in mid-late s4 thats great vid, Aatrox was actually the first champ i mained its sad they killed him identity :/
8:08 Unlocked a core memory
Loved the editing style. Really funny.
I miss the old rune pages. You had a lot more options for customising the champs
crunk aint dead got me bro, +1 sub
Just btw, there were also different tier runes, so as you lvl up you were able to then get higher level runes. WHich basically meant you wasted IP if you bought the tier 1 runes. But hitting lvl 30 took like 200+ games without exp boosts
I remember my first game of league so vividly, 2010 halloween map, played as garen and lux was just released, good old times.
I still have my box set from 2009. Most don't remember the old dodge runes that Jax and nidalee used to have making them untargetable. Old shaco and heifer turret/boxes you could stack at the nexus stopping minions from going down lanes. Then when you let them Go you would have a trillion minions running down lane at 4 5 minutes. Shit was scary
bruh i love ur vids sm, u the type of content creator league scene needs. keep up the amazing work
ps: your voice is hot
Another banger!❤
🐻>
as a newer league player these videos are extremely entertaining, please keep making more 🙏
Hits 2 demographics at once, My friends who never played league and all my old retired buddies getting PTSD flashbacks 😂
I miss tribunal the most
Man i really miss these times.. i wish riot would do something like wow did and bring back the CLASSIC league of legends. I'm talking about s1 till season 3 or 4 at max
You are hands down my favorite league RUclipsr and yeah bro that sejuani ult back in the day was CHEFS KISS 🤣
I appreciate it 🥹
League in 2013 / 2014 was peak.
the tribunal also gave you influence points for participating. for the newheads, IP was the old blue essence
Great video again! Hope to see another one
edit: wow i just saw the view count for the last video. gz for the 270k views really deserved.
ty brother
man season 3 is my first exposure to league cause i came from dota 1 and my friend recommended the game i love and hate and im still playing it for 11 yrs
and yes aatrox is my fave champ too
Dude this christmas music is killing me!!
Insane that I really played on the Halloween Map. That's something only a few people can say.
And I miss the OG Winter Map with the Tons of Snow. Yeah it hurts the eyes but it was awesome.
Oh the good ol' rune pages...I had 9 of them. 9 ! Full unique rune pages. 7 for general use like lethality,magic pen, support enchanter,tank.... and 2 specificly tailored for my favourite champs at the time. Wukong and Janna.
The day Riot removed rune pages I was devastated for obvious reasons. Especially because I bought said rune pages with real money (the runes I grind for for months). And the compensation I got wasn't even close to what I invested into having them.
they gave us some belly button lint and a happy meal coupon as compensation 😭😭
You madman
When they got rid of the old system and refunded everyones runes and rune pages, they didn't even give a full refund. I was so mad, I had 9 rune pages, all bought with IP.
next part broo, you are awesome i love your old school league vids
coming out this friday/weekend
Love the video, straight gas. Just one small correction, old Aatrox revive was stationary, he couldn't move during it. You're mixing it up with the post-rework revive, that's when he got the ability to move during it. It used to be a 25% slow, so he could still maneuver around quite freely, before being nerfed to a 99% slow during the revive, which is basically the same as not being able to move. Then just a couple patches later the revive got taken out completely. The thing that set old Aatrox's revive apart from Anivia and Zac was the fact that you couldn't deal damage to him while he was reviving.
Ty bro, ill add to the editor notes
Removing toxicity made the game a wanker riddled nightmare.
I don't miss the old rune that takes forever to build... However you have the freedom to create your own stats you could try hybrid sets it's alot better IMO and placing down rune felt nice in a odd way haha after grinding many matches you finally own it
Old League > Current League
Ah yes, my peak content has arrived. Hope you keep making videos, been looking foreard to this but I forgot to sub… luckily this vid got recommended lol.
@@luk4aaaa I appreciate it brother.
idk why but these memories make me wanna cry, miss the old times :(
Hahaahh i liked this vid just for the tribunal bit. Made me shed a tear of nostalgia
Lucian was also released with 600 or 650 range lmao, was quite a time to be alive
LOOOOL i do remember that
real og's still remember the full dodge rune pages, combined with 5 phantom dancers and tabis Jax
I still remember only having 2 rune pages in the old client. 1 for ap and the other for ad, didn't have the luxury of customizing them based on champion/role since I had little IP
1.2x-4.5x the cost of an expensive champion for a rune page that can be reused for any champ sounds about right to me. I honestly fucked with the costs of the old rune pages. Even when paying real money for extra pages, i thought it was pretty reasonable
I miss all of this..the rune progression was something different in terms of ur personal goals. I’m totally down for a retro mode in league lol🤣
Wish you went over league of assassins. There was a period when they released Rengar, Khazix, and Diana as well as reworking Akali and buffing Katarina i think. This was also around the time they released Cleaver and Tiamat which stacked. Basically, you just weren't allowed to play ADC for a while. But got damn, Fiora ult with 5 Tiamat's was funny.
Oh, and old Saraka. She used to counter AD mid lanes because her heal also gave armor and her q was spammable like Eve's q. Basically a Master Yi or whatever would jump on you, you heal, take no damage, and drop stars on their head till they die.
Old league was great.
I will talk about this during meta video
They NEED to bring back the Tribunal %100 the automated system is so easy to dupe and also players who aren't even being toxic can get banned where as people who know what words to avoid (myself) are still just as toxic if not more, automated systems can't detect when someone is intentionally soft inting yet anyone watching the game its very obvious.
The new map looks shit at the normal contrast and gamma settings. Tip is to increase these until the colors pop more, then it looks almost like the OG map!
I miss the old runes, now that I'm playing Honor of Kings global, the Arcana's are so nostalgic to League's Runes. 💗
I still remember old runes. I was always a top player, my best friend was supp player. I will never forget that one moment when enemy tresh killed him wihtout using skill and scored first blood, because he had 1% crit chance and landed 2 crits in a row, wich caught my bro out of guard soo hard that he did not even flashed away. xD
