Reacting to my FIRST PRO GAME EVER | AAA vs DIG (2012) | Legacy League

Of course Kiev looked like communism, it was still part of the Soviet Union back when you were a pro in 1978

Dom describing Ukraine is like yes, that is the reality of eastern Europe. I'm from Slovakia and you cross borders with Austria it's suddenly like you left some darkness behind.

Honestly sometimes, when you watch your old videos, you can relive your mindset in a new perspective. It's really refreshing to dive back on what you could have done better. It's part of growing up.

I didn't even play League in those days but I loved watching DIG play. Especially with the fact that IWD, QT and Voyboy looked like they belonged in an emo HS band.

[@Craftwrk]

Hard to imagine that Dignitas used to have talent back then lol

[@psantosd1]

This is actually an awesome idea for a series. So many classics you can pick. Cant wait for legendary moments like xpeke's backdoor (long ass game to review but that ending is worth it) or a review on any Moscow5 game (kings of early cheeses and creative strategies if I recall correctly).

[@undsowei1erundsofor1]

Man M5 was easily my favorite team back in the day. I still remeber shit like diamond and edward duo jungling as lee and alistar with genja going solobot as urgot. It was fucking wild.

[@jimgu2578]

It’s such a interesting throwback. The IWD lore.

[@Sakomaru707]

To be honest it was a very reasonable interview. Shows that Dom had some decent logically-thinking skills back then as well, just the knowledge about the game is 20x bigger now, so it seems silly

[@aldecoadan]

Dom look so desperate to end the interview hahaha like... "Dude, I need my crack, let me go already"

[@PassivesAbseits]

That Caster was... also legendary. I remember by best friend saying "Omg, my English is better than his, and my English is awful..."

[@Flynnly]

I remember when diamondprox figured out that udyr with dblade start and a special rune set up could clear without losing much hp, 1v1 every jungler and solo drake early. Made him my favourite jungler in those early days

[@cnflxx]

He's the progenitor of the Eve jungle right? Or is Evelynn already intended to be played in the jungle?

[@MrAvaricia]

@@cnflxx I dont know if he was the progenitor but yes, M5 could play evelynn jungle and mid which was such a dark technology, evelynn was very underpowered in S2. Out of all worlds I think the other team that could play it was Azubu Frost in mid (rapidstar). One of the things that was going on in the S2 world Championship is M5 felt so far ahead, they were playing champs others didn't (Eve, Xin) and smashed IG with it. Then came the semifinals and their stubborness of not banning Nidalee...the rest is history. If worlds had double elim I could see the grandfinals being TPA vs M5 or TPA vs WE even.

[@haoye2413]

I still remember mad spamming the code for Ezreal skin during stream. TPA was kind of the first team that had a complete team comp with strategy, where most teams relied on wombo combo, meta pick and personal mechanic

[@glcsander]

Wow watching Dom jungle diff Linak that hard popping off, i realy miss those tournaments, it must been hell for the players who had to travel, but this kind of storylines doesnt happen anymore in the league, remenber this is after the world championships and AAA stood at the top neck to neck to Fnatic, and here comes Dig like the middle child of NA and they take a game off the worlds finalist classic.

[@chaedi8457]

I actually started playing back in Season 2 myself. I remember back then how often I would just lose myself in team fights and had no idea where I was or what I was doing. I figured I got better and that is why this really is no longer an issue, but my god when I see early games like this I can see why. I can't tell a damn thing about what is going on there. The improvements Riot has made to the game are pretty unreal comparatively.

yeah i started the same season and its why I playeded lock screen

That airports don’t always use the “fingers” for the passengers is not too unnormal. Sometimes the plane is just parked too far away, or it’s a smaller plane that wouldn’t fit on it. At least from my experience.
