The Kleos Aphthiton - Roblox's Strangest Limited (Item Deep Dives)

The Kleos Aphthiton has existed on Roblox for 15 years, and has been a limited item for 5 years. Over those years, it's had several different owners, and yet, it's never been sold once. There's no doubt that it is one of the most mystifying limiteds ever made. So today, let's examine its history.

About the Grand Melee, first things first it definitely wasn't a swordfighting game lol. In fact, in Brickbattle games (games that have the tools that Crossroads has, like Grand Melee), trying to slice other players with your sword is a good way to have you getting killed, since the other player can usually blow you up with a rocket before you can get close enough. As for how players managed to knock bombs around in the Grand Melee (or doing Bombshots, like they're called nowadays), they did it through hitting them with a Superball (As for the Superball itself, in 2007, apart from its use to knock bombs at other players, it was actually somewhat useless as it rarely dealt damage even if hit other players and even when it did, it only dealt 25 damage. It later got modified however to do 80 damage in 2008 and later on 55 damage in 2011). BTW, I actually did participate in the Grand Melee back in 2007, and even fought miked at one point (who was actually fairly good). Nowadays, I'm actually a fairly good Brickbattler, however, I wasn't as good back then (especially since I didn't know how to do bombshots back then, only learned how to do them around November 2007 or so) and thus I didn't manage to make it past the 1st round.

That's so cool bro, We kinda are on the internet so I have to take your post with a grain of salt and sugar but that sounds intense, it is actually a good thing you didn't win because as you saw in the video the hats have met devastating fates.

[@leIantos]

Just wanna say that this item has been listed on the catalog, many, many times in fact. It just doesn't sell since the price is absurdly high

[@Gr0ot]

It’s not the same one.

[@KompridiCR]

And then 17 years later a free reskin of it was made as an event prize!

This video is very well put together, it just makes me sad that people are a tually willing to hack people for a hat.

[@neon8875]

the "Builderaet's Club" was in fact that Roblox did not support some characters a long time ago. This was fixed in a unknown update

[@kleoserebus99]

and then they made a free version

[@ionobru]

And? It doesn’t look anything like it, the mesh is way shorter and thicker, and the visor is a different shape

[@ethanrobinson7786]

The coolest hat on Roblox.

The kleos is my favorite because it is a contest hat.

Man I swear as a kid I actually used to own the blue one and always wondered how it was possible to get the red, now a decade later after not touching roblox much since 2016 I'm watching a roblox historian inform me how haha

what's the blue one called?

[@yahiamice_cantaloupe]

it kinda makes me mad how roblox never protected the people who were actually awarded it so any emails regarding the accounts claiming to be them that needed to get into the account would get rejected

4:10 your KDR wouldn't be infinity it'd just be your number of kills.

[@Nitrolord]

It's related to calculus. Basically, if we have an expression 1/x, we can't solve it if x=0 (that's undefined) but if we just make x a really small number close to 0, the result is really big (you can use a calculator to see that). The result gets infinitely bigger and bigger the smaller that number gets (as long as it remains positive) and so we say that 1/0 is *approximately* infinity. Replace 1 with any number of kills and you get the same situation every time.

[@Kremlin-Dusk]

@@Nitrolord That's not how it's actually treated by normal games when it's zero, though. Go into any game and have like 14 kills and zero deaths, the KDR will say 14.

[@Nitrolord]

@@Kremlin-Dusk Interesting. I guess you can tell how few competitive games I play now lol

You would think Roblox would maybe go back and give them items to these players. After all they’ve been playing for years.
