Things Only League of Legends Veterans Remember

League of Legends has seen some massive changes over its lifespan. From champions that don't exist in the game anymore like pre-rework Aatrox and Poppy, entire system overhauls (runes, masteries, etc), and even deleted League of Legends game modes and maps (Twisted Treeline, Crystal Scar Dominion, etc) these are Things Only OG League of Legends Veterans Will Remember.

What season did you guys start playing League? And what are your favorite things that don't exist in the game anymore? I started playing when Yasuo was released and I miss the genuine excitement of seeing new champs released that weren't immediately controversial or "200 years".

[@Maybenice86]

played during beta. Glad tons of stuff got fixed (sunfire eve/twitch etc) The reworks i really hate the most is poppy/gp, From very unique style to a more "normal" style of champs. Both where way more macro heavy since you HAD to play good early to become the lategame monsters they where (triforce finished and they became usefull) I was a hard poppy main ever since her release. Played her crit after tri and really had the most fun years in league.

[@SaelPossible]

s5

[@MadIIMike]

I don't know when I started, but it was around the time Xerath got released. I used to play mostly TT, when I played 5v5 it was usually WW jungle with Madreds Bloodrazor and otherwise Tank, making old Aatrox a natural a obvious choice when he came out. Another thing newer players might not know: Twitch and others with stealth could only be revealed by a trinket or pink wards.

[@nirasademoon9834]

S3 when Zac was the newest champion; right before Lissandra's release

[@rexvyoli8657]

when tft released is when leauge truly died

[@giovannicampostrini6309]

It isn't really something related, but is funny seeing how almost every change since the delete of twisted treeline got a lot of drawbacks and also they could had just let the assets and things in the game and putting it as a rotative gamemode instead of just straight deleting everything...

[@tahircamalanoglu]

The mod seems pretty dead. I had been waiting for hours to find a game, but no one's was playing.

I first started playing during one of the winter themed summoners rift events.

Twisted treeline had 2 maps, the one you showed was the "newer" one. The old one had a dragon as a main objective, red/blue buff, many more bushes and overall a more "creepy" aesthetic.

[@Lukja08]

If you had someone with some brains in a custom you could play OLD Twisted Treeline as a... 7v7 or 8v8 I believe it was. That was nutty.

[@Strlz_Remtachi]

Bro.... The Blood Moon Event, the Ascension Event, The PROJECT Event, Ohmwrecker Skarner driveby ult, the old Mordekaiser Ult that can control Dragons, The old Akali that can hide under turrets vision...

[@joshgreen4521]

I remember in the first Twisted Treeline you could stall the game quite easily by tower hugging at the entrance to your base.

[@principal-videojuegos6666]

Yes!!! I missed the first twisted treeline. I remember the jungle being on top gave the solo toplaner so much rolm to run at. But the spider was a really cool adition to map.

[@marcischlanger6848]

Came here to say this haha

[@user-mg7st9vs2f]

there was a green and white buff if I remember correctly , which gave attack speed and movement speed.

[@realslimshaco8550]

[@its_Phenguin]

Hide and seek was hella fun in Doninion 🔥

[@oldmanbanjo]

I was actually Plat ranked in twisted treeline which is an improvement over my current bronze...I miss that mode.

[@LoLAthlete]

Yeah and you could earn ranked rewards too so it was easier to get Victorious skins

[@shakkarugat9184]

Bro twisted treelines ranked was easy af. We were gold 2 or gold 3 players, but we started grinding to see how far we can get (me, my classmate and his buddy) and we literally for 2 weeks we olny played TT ranked and was about to hit challanger, but the classmates PC died and he had to wait for a little less than a week so he could get his new PC running! And after he could play again we just got lazy and never really pushed that hard for it

[@GalaxyHero13]

Same! Me and my real life friends used to play 3v3 ranked. In fact, we played 3v3 80% of the time. Then they changed the 3v3 map and ruined it, which is why it died. I loved the old OG 3v3 map. We started to play LoL in early 2011, like around February and March.

[@ahejleira5654]

@@GalaxyHero13 True, 3v3 had a very stable playerbase until they changed it. The map changes were completely awful and then it was pretty hard to find matches and it was not fun at all... too snowbally.

@@ahejleira5654 OG map was so good and fun! The middle jungle was amazing and the top jungle too. A lot of places to hide, very dark. Me and my friends lost interest when the new map came out.

[@giovannicampostrini6309]

Totally right, old aatrox was fair more interesting that the today's "angry male demon Riven", and people still accuse the old aatrox to be a copy of Yi or Tryndamere, like you had ever played the damm champ at all?

@@m.s7334 well that's a good point, I mean there isn't any ability like aatrox w in others champions, selecting to heal or do more damage is a fair simple but great mechanic, and to be fair the new Aatrox can be called a copy every time but he is fair more balanced that Riven, who is supposed to be the origin of his kit

[@vang-toulee8351]

Yall liars, dude. I never seen aatrox EVER until those couple of months they mega buffed him before his rework. All of the sudden everyone loves him despite having the bottom 3 pick rate for years. Some people even forgot he was a champion

[@giovannicampostrini6309]

@@vang-toulee8351 the fact that you didn't see him don't mean anything, but i understand you point, with skarner it was the same nobody ever cared about him but when the rework arrived suddenly everyone loved the old "sad scorpion", but atleast for me i really liked the old Aatrox (i started around 2016-2017) he was with skarner, k6, Nasus and Rammus the first champions i had ever played

fr i do think reworks should be similar to the original instead of completely changing them but people act like old asol or aatrox had a big player base when nobody actually played them. aatrox was a meme for like 3 years until he randomly got broken just before his rework

[@nguyenngoclong3476]

My thought exactly. Whoever made this is so bias it becomes fallacious lmao. « Generic drain tank » new aatrox but will never admit old aatrox was a weaker Tryndamere with wings lmao. He was never meta, barely became useful a month before his remake. He was never played. And the ones who miss him missed him when they entirely changed his blood well mechanic 😭😭

[@Xabeutt]

old champ select was more than disgusting and its baffling to this day that it took them so long to change it, but one brightside of such system was that in order to climb you had to know all 5 roles. also, the champ select music was goated and it made you hype af. also one thing missing from the video is random matches showed in main client from either ranked or arams that you could spectate if you wanted. a lot of stuff didnt get mentioned so i think part 2 would be neat.

[@SyaniteL0L]

I started playing back in 2010 around when Malzahar was released. At some point I had purchased every single rune in the game to make some amazingly troll runepages, I think you could get +81 attack damage/ lvl 18 (scaling). Those were the good old days. Whenever Kalista was locked in, I'd insta lock Taric for his point an click stun to ruin her day. But I was definitely an old school Aatrox, Shen and Swain enjoyer. What a wild ride League has been over the years.

[@DoctorLazertron]

3v3 was awesome, I remember only playing ranked on twisted treeline back in the day because games were shorter and people were way nicer for whatever reason.

[@alexdisler6340]

I miss Twisted Treeline so fcking bad

[@MysticBlueFox]

Of the many things I miss, I still have the old champion select music for ranked solo queue in my memory forever. It felt so fitting and always gave me the eagerness to play before ranked matches started.

[@Dredikul]

The twisted tree line you showed was the final version. It looked waayyyy different when it was first released. Vilemaw wasn’t a thing for a few years, and the jungle had some spawn points above the top lane. Plus, no altars to capture

[@Sp1tfireProduction]

You did twisted treeline dirty :( the old school map had a dragon in the middle

[@ivandeoz]

Also, that was the latest Twisted treeline, there was another older map before that one.

[@barnibalint9768]

Old Aatrox was my first lvl 7 champion. I was gold/plat at that time and absolutely no one in ranked new how to play against him since very few people were playing him. I have not once played Aatrox since the rework.

Started playing when Zac was released . Any one remember the champion splash art on the login page. Good ol days

[@imraduin]

I've played this game since season 1, and what I miss the most are the old specialization trees and runes (quints etc) the game felt more cusotomizable back then. Prolly also harder to balance but at least people had fun playing it instead of going into each game with a negative mindset 💀

[@leonurban7048]

Season 3 still feels like yesterday. Coming home from school and playing with your friends. Good old League

5:40 there was an even older version of TTL where there was jungle above the Toplane aswell You forgot to mention the theme it once used - "Welcome to League of Legends - Theme" it should have always stayed the theme of this game, aswell as the draft pick version "Classic Summoner's Rift Champion Select - Draft Pick".

One thing I miss, because it was so great for beginner, is a Feature in CHamp select. You could hover over a Champion and get shown a short description for all the Abilitys, the Champ had.

[@andreitaker3527]

I remember on the ascension gamemode the enemy had heimer camping on some objective area so we decided to avoid that part and don't kill heimer as long a possible so there are moment in that game in which the heimer is so behind in items because the only way to go back to the shop platform is if you die or you have an ability that let's you teleport like tf/galio/tahm kench.

I've been playing since season 3, and it's true that Riot once focused on a good, memorable experience, they wanted players to come back because it was fun to play, great events, you wanted to play those events just because of the mood they set. Compare the events now - it's a stupid point farm for skins, 0 fun, soullessly made, everything is aimed at making money.

[@Thor_Q]

Twisted Treeline, Dominion and Hexakill were all fun to me. I liked the variety. Good times!

[@JJPPOO]

I started playing in 2010. When Kennen was released. And back then my graphics were messed up. So I spent a pretty long time playing on a fully black screen. The only visible things were champions, minions, structures (turrets, fountain, Nexus, etc), jungle camps (when you were close to them) and bushes. Everything that was "not interactive" with the player was black. I had no idea of the map´s shape. And I had no idea of the "Fog of War" either. Was a nice surprise to see the map after a time.

[@WiiTara]

Dayum... I really remembered all of it and back in the days I wasnt even considered a newer player. I started with Shivannas release :D I just realized I did not remember the buffs for smiting until it was brought up here.

[@conneryechout7143]

would be a pretty good video too! you probably started cooking on it right after saying "dont worry we wont talk about all of those right now" but just an idea of going over some of the largely impacted losses and gains from the removal of old items. good work brother ☝

[@jimp2641]

This was a great great great video man! Appreciate the effort you put into this, felt so nostalgic as I had started league back in S1 and till this day I still play. League has changed so much and Dominion use to be a mode where people make customs and play hide and seek. Unfortunately as Riot grew bigger and was bought by Tencent, all they had in mind was $$$. Use to hop on league to have fun, and now, hopping on league only for Solo Q :(

[@ripzy7671]

Feral flare OG Warwick was so crazy

[@DaddyGokky]

Champ select wasn’t random. It was MMR based. I remember when I hit lvl 30, I jumped straight to ranked. I was so bad and my MMR so low that i was last pick EVERY TIME, forced to main support. I mained Nunu, which was the only champion i played, although i didn’t understand why Q didn’t work on champions. I gained 3 LP per win and even if i won 7 games in a row (21 LP total), i would lose all my LP after 1 loss, straight back to Bronce V 0 LP. Those were the good times

[@popelbombe]

the old runes.. omg so perfect

[@juangil5680]

Don’t forget when they tried to do positional ranks, which lasted about half a season because of how much everyone hated it

[@inviernos1]

And level 30 was the max level as well, old sion was mega broken as well as jax... :D

[@Castnine]

Ive been playing on and off since open beta. Long before there was a que it was just custom games. You had to lvl your account 100% in custom games. It was really cool when you found players of similar skill/vibe you would jam games back to back. Hourglass and deathcap were the same item.

[@al-lt8pm]

I vaguely remember my brother forcing me to play brand jungle in 2013, no clue what was going on and could barely reach the keyboard, insane that after 4 years of properly playing the game now I'm closing in on masters, I love this game but at the same time hate it, but its cool to see they are slowly bringing life back into the game with arena and somewhat thought-out balance changes recently. Shame I could never have tried any of these game modes :(

[@ahrivixen5594]

i remember playing back in the day, and i also miss the tribunal, twisted treeline, and tbh i kinda miss the old champ select even tho people hated it, it forced people to have to have a general knowledge on every role in the past, now a days we dont have that and then we have people not knowing how roles generally work now a days, which leads to a lack of overall game knowledge, tho im on the verge of quitting league just due to how bad its gotten to play, it just doesnt feel good to play, and then the balance team is a super joke this season,

[@allshipper2158]

Thanks for unlocking my nostalgia. Will never get it back.

[@kaleinyo]

Talking about dominion, but forgetting about hide and seek ? That custom mode was even better than playing dominion itself

[@MrRossoMoto]

Yeah I remember it all. I started playing I think at the end of season 1. There were elo points which I think you didn't mention in the video.

[@ScreamyBanana]

I played since season 2, and later I mostly played the new Twisted Treeline in team ranked. When Riot deleted the Twisted Treeline map, that was the reason why I stopped playing the game :(

[@zzsheep739]

I've wanted nothing more than to hop on twisted treeline playing old taric. One of my fondest memories in league.

[@LH_Vagrant]

I miss OG Poppy. Given a bit of lane help, that was one fun AP assassin. Run into enemy team from the back, take out a target (or 2) while near literally immortal, then leg it into the jungle. Farming was hell though. I also want doom bots back. Loved the chaos of that. Also, wdym, Rabadon's Deathcap and Zhonya's Hourglass? Try Zhonya's Ring.

[@MrNightmarekill]

I miss the old Yorick! I got into him just before his rework and I thought he was a ton of fun, and I occasionally dabbled in Twisted Treeline, it was a cool little different experience

That old que pop sound brought me back 10 years

[@conneryechout7143]

my first league game i was 7 years old and my brother taught me that Rammus is a tank so you need to tank damage for your team, so I would run under enemy tower and watch my health bar drop because i thought that was what i was supposed to do... flash forward years later i had my IGN as "Best Yasuo EUW" ( I was a hardstuck gold 12 year old) and hitting a free challenger or masters on twisted treeline with malph yas combo was the good ol days

[@GalaxyHero13]

I was 23 🥲 The good ol' days of when I was still a "kid" (very young) 😁 13 years later and I still love & play LoL. All my real life friends play LoL, so they were the ones who made me download the game to play with them.

[@ickaruus4909]

Honorable mention: DARK STAR THRESH MODE Some of the most fun I ever had in the game. Not intense fighting, just some arcade like gameplay with a lot of precision. And the worst thing is, riot could just bring it back with no effort, it's not patch dependend, it doesn't need buffs or nerfs, it was just fair und fun like it was.. BRING IT BACK

[@leron4404]

Something i remember was leashing in jungle. There was a time when midlane would hit blue, run back and forth where the blue(aggroed by mid) would also just run back and forth allowing the jungler to take it for no damage. Same thing with dragon too

I saw that trick and I heard that it was called a "superman leash"

[@gluttonyfang6674]

Doombots for me was the PEAK of League of Legends gamemode, the amount of chaos and crazy shit happening when bots teamed up is so funny and fun. It's sad that this will probably never return and new players never get to experience this wonderful mayhem.

Season 3 vel,koz and Braum releases fun times I still remember having a blast with getting 6 warmogs on cho gath.

Also they removed DFG because Riot has one goal and one goal only…. No one person, no matter how much you want to win, can solo carry a game. Historically, they took a game of Solo Que force you to play a team based game, adjusted match making, and got rid of MMR.

Anyone remember that gamemode where you can buy a turrent that shoots at the tower or create a zone that gives you infinite flash while you're inside?

I can’t believe how much Yasuo changed the game. He was either the most controversial or praised champion when he launched.

I atill rmemeber the bilgewater event where GP was killed off and removes from the game before being brought back. That and the announcer being GP's voice and ARAM being the butchers bridge was so much fun

Nothing will ever give me that satisfying full of dopamine feeling by last hitting with OG katarina shunpo, a 5 shunpo penda? pure ecstacy.

I feel like RIot is walking down the wrong path. LoL back then was a game that was very fun to play either alone or with friends. Now Riot does not see it as a game but is instead, pushing League as a 'sport'. Riot, LoL will never be a sport, it has been and will always be a game, so really that is the one thing that Riot needs to fix, make it a game again, and lots of people will make a comeback. Less try hards and toxicity, more fun.
