I actually miss old swain gameplay wise (I also really like the new one as well though)
There was a point where I didn’t understand how to play old Swain. He clicked after a game once and quickly rose to my top 5 favorite champions.
league really needs a proper DOT mage again. After swain we don't really have something like that anymore
I prefer old swain, but new swain s one of the reworks I like playing after the rework. I find old gameplay more satisfying, but new swain is visually fantastic and I like ideas that they tried with his new kit.
@@fishraposo7192 True, even Aurelion Sol has a burst on his Q an execute on E and his ult is burst. Fiddle is the closest, but technically his Q and E are still burst damage.
Old Swain was the only champ I enjoyed playing.
I miss a lot old Galio, his old W was so satisfying to use
He was so funny! Use your shield on an ally or yourself and heal yourself. It was a real anti-mage tank. :(
i swear that ult was hella iconic, i hated how good it was but loved how comedic it was to use in a fight, old galio you will be missed.
I miss his old ult. I like both versions of Galion, but I miss his old ult felt really satisfying to use and it looked cool.
Old Galio's Ult + W under enemy tower was my favorite thing to do in league - nothing really hits the same feeling nowadays.
Old Galio was my favourite champion. I think about him often. ❤
Old Aurelion Sol. The new one is just another scaling mage like the dozen we already have in the game. Old ASol was thoroughly unique.
Fr!! They killed his identity and how fun it was to play him
GOD YES! The old Asol was a genuinely interesting champion with a unique play style with the careful positioning. The new one literally just holds q and hopes the enemy dies before him
Old Yorick will always have a special place in my heart. I miss having 3 different types of ghouls in my arsenal
I'm glad I'm not the only one on the old yorick boat. ⛵
I admit I only really liked old Yorick for his Q. It was really less about the ghouls and more about what you got while you summoned them, and Yorick's Q was basically just a longer range Warwick Q, and I loved me some lanewick too.
Edit: Turns out it was his E, not his Q, woops.
Greetings!
Praise algorithm gods!
Yoric E was healing one. Q was aa reset
@@thrall6647 Woops. You got me, it's been a while since I played the champ so I just assumed the most important one was his Q.
@@YinYarnsBarnppe btw lel xd
I miss old Irelia mostly because of her simplicity. It was fun having what is essentially a "No, U" button.
And the sheen proc>ult>proc>ult.. mechanic was so satisfying. Old Irelia is hands down still my fave champ
Also, it is so sad that riot destroyed the chronoshift project.
Sheen proc, ult shen proc ult wa great. Miss it and closest thing in game now is gwen, but lich bane is such an rare buy vs triforce being glued to irelia
@@LightshaverConstellation triforce with veigos blade being jsut glued to irelia
@@minaDesuDesu It's funny because when Irelia was the balance nightmare after her rework at least one Irelia main on old league forums was suggesting changing her refresh on procing marks to reducing the cooldown to a static 1.5 seconds specifically for trinity force procs while also addressing the blatant elephant in the room of her over the top mobility and adjusting her kit from there. Effectively a middle ground between old and new Irelia. Bladesurge would still refresh on kill.
The amount of times league had a new-player friendly champ that got reworked into something overly complicated just to be “modern design” is staggering
As someone who mained Graves adc back in the day and was heartbroken by the remake, its nice that you included him in the video, thanks man 💙
Old graves was my fucking guy. I'm always Sad when i realise i can never play it again
old urgot. GOD I miss old urgot I would do ANYTHING to have him back. old urgot was such a unique and fun to play champion who was so unique in the fact that he could be flexed as a tanky ability caster ADC. the way his Q worked and interacted with the rest of his kit was fun and interesting and it felt so rewarding to use. there has yet to be a champion released that even came close to the playstyle of old urgot (best thing would be like, iceborne senna but even then its not the same).
I want a Aoshin that is old Asol so bad.
I would like for old Mordikasier to return
but not his old R tho
@@itchyballsl see they couldnt get the ghost to work but then went and made Viego which is 6 times buggier than Morde ghost
I would play league a lot more if they do. Only one champion that I can play again and again without boring.
@@poom323new morde is barely different tho right?
I just want his old R and Q back. Take drake for a walk was just way too funny. The 3 hits Q is for deleting opponent’s existence within 3s.
Back when Voli was getting his rework I thought they would keep his roar knockdown. It was such a unique cc ability that really made me like playing him. I still hope riot will come back to that cc tho cause it's pretty cool
man do I miss flipping people and hard chomping them...
I honestly wish they didn't rework him at all.
(even though the reworked version is fine imo)
the pasive that healed 30% of your HP was so cool too ...
@@blop-a-blop9419exactly the same for me. I spammed him for a few weeks, after the rework was announced.
I was mastery 7 on old voli, he was so much more fun than the new one. I dont understand why they had to change hes Flip for a stun
I was so salty when they removed his “sniveling cubs” line.
Agree I miss it as well. It was one of the better CC abilities that made me happy to play him.
Pressing that Aatrox Q was amazing, diving in pressing R dealing tons of damage and causing mayhem... damn I miss that.
I'm actually a massive fan of old urgot, he was silly but he was mine.
He was one of my favorites back in the day, too (Along with Old Warwick, old Yorick and old Udyr. All my old favorites got reworked out of the game and I'm sad.)
What made old Urgot so fun for me was that if you play him right, there was no "good" play your opponent can make. Q was an oppressive poke tool you could use at far longer range than most autoattacks while also giving you monstrous close-range DPS when woven together with autoattacks, W and E made it impossible to win short-range trades with him, and his ult made it almost impossible to all-in him or gank him. Someone coming in behind you to flank you? Just switch positions with them and walk away. As long as you could keep up with you mana costs, urgot was crazy good.
Hell, I still remember M5's solo bot lane urgot: give him blue buff and leave him alone while alistar essentially played second jungler and terrorized the map.
@@kevingriffith6011 Moscow 5/Gambit Gaming, always had some wild shit. Their adc was addicted to Trinity Force. The mid laner was arguably the best in the world, for 2 seasons and would pull out unique picks like Mid Lane Evelynn, which for him, had 100% win rate at S2 Worlds and ended up being permanently banned (while no one else pulled it of successfully) (a short time after worlds, they played a match against TPA again and he got 530 something CS on Diana, back when there was less cs to get).
It is the team that TPA copied in playstyle, to win S2 Worlds and also beat them, in a very clutch serie, to go to the finals (that one game they let Evelynn through, probably gave TPA PTSD). Then after S2 Worlds, everyone copied TPA. This is still the playstyle that is most prevalent today, in pro play (although, there is less experimentation today), which M5 was the major team to bring it. They also did really well in S3 Worlds, beating one of the best Korean team, eliminating them, to then lose to the Korean rank 1 team, with some amazing games and some less amazing ones.
To be fair, M5's best players were the JG and Mid. The adc was good and always had his own builds, which other pros tried to use and faile. The top was a coinflip, he tended to tilt. The support changed a few times.
@kevingriffith6011 yeah old Urgot was kinda dumb in that regard because unless you played him, you would have no idea what was happening to you.
The old Ult was so funny, either u did the biggest IQ Play or u just killed urself in a hilarious way
Old urgot was my favorite. With the crabgot skin he was THE ugliest champion in the game by far, and since he didn't see a lot of play, it was absolutely hilarious to gank someone and watch them recoil and run away from him. Closest thing to playing an actual monster that I've ever played.
Also, his kirby dance was so cool.
I miss version 2 Morde, with the three hit Q and Dragon Spirit. He was my pocket pick top into execute bullies like Garen and Darius just simply because his passive shield and Stat scaling allowed him access to most any items in the game. Old Aatrox was a fun champ as well, but what I really miss from him was those random AP scalings. LIke just E someone once or twice then Q R them and watch them pop, it was funny. Old Yorick though, what a terribly designed champ, but also one that I would not mind to see return.
I miss ryze and kata v1
Old Maokai and Karma. I loved Maelstrom, and the old Karma had a unique playstyle. I loved the attack that when manta'd would heal, the shieldbomb, and even the beam had great use with the right partner (like a Voli)
I miss old karma so much , she was my main
I miss old Akali. Her kit felt more balanced, easier to play, and was less annoying. The New Akali is a downgrade.
R resets were so much more fun
Tbh both Akalis are great
New is Amazing but broken
Old is a bit boring but pretty balanced
@@tiltedbybox6118 now we got them on Ahri ... 🤷♀
Old Akali kit was imposible to balance, if she had enougth stats to stat check u she had 0 counterplay
@@brandonsantos13 Kinda like the new when they build tanky and still kills you
I miss old Malzahar. I mained AD Malzahar jungle and it was the most fun I've ever had in this game.
Actually, Ionian Fervor is a very missed ability nowadays, due to how frequently CC is prioritized in the Drafting phase. As a melee player myself, nothing feels more frustrating than having both Mercury Treads and full Legend Tenacity stacks just to die after getting stunned for 7 seconds in a teamfight. To ensure full player satisfaction, I believe that Riot should either reduce the duration of cc for the moves lasting longer than 1 second, or just buff Tenacity to make it feel like it actually does something. I used to play prerework Irelia, and I must say, her passive felt so satisfying to have in a teamfight. Ionian Fervor felt situational back then when the game wasn't just whoever teamfights better wins, but now feels like a must that should be brought back.
Or they can add diminishing return to the cc so each next one will be halved (1,1/2,1/4,1/8 of the standard cc duration)
@@Barad-Dur_IsACapitalOfMordor That sounds like a great way to fix stacking cc.
@@torri776just how smite does it
@@Barad-Dur_IsACapitalOfMordoryou’ll piss off the morgana and lux main in URF
I miss old Aatrox 😥
You mean the real Aatrox. Also same todays items and runes would work ok with him.
So do I, brother, so do I...
Wish we could get a new darkin with his old kit or similar at least we have the gameplay again
Yall miss him only when he became broken during his final month pre-rework.
I used to play him AP mid, so I miss that play style.
I had so much fun with the old 3 hit morde. Would love to have him back
Old Aatrox only issue was itemisation, he didnt really have much in terms of build diversity or real big viability cuz items were too simple. But now adays, stride breaker i think would be his main item, has everything he could ever want.
I miss old Warwick in a sense. Yeah, he can be a pain to deal with at times (mostly referring to top-lane Warwick), but at the same time, his constant healing was a ton of fun. As was his old Ult.
I miss old Taric :(.
Same, especially top
Gems :(
Old Irelia ult was brought back and given to Gwen, also I miss my old Swain and Asol =[.
You should do a video naming the most hated thing about every champion or a specific reason why that champ would be hated, like an aspect of their kit that makes them annoying.
This hits me in the feels because my old toplane pool was aatrox, irelia, swain akali. Now my toplane pool is lillia, sej, kayn, renekton.
Old Aurelion Sol. Even though I never played him I saw gameplay of him and it seems so much cooler than the new one (also much more skill expressive). Sure, he had a very low pick rate but the Onetricks really got screwed over with a complete Rework of all Abilities, basically deleting A-sol and introducing a new Champion.
The worst part is it comes off to riot as a good rework - because New Asol is an amazing champ and I love him.
But he's not old Asol at all. He's just a new champ based on the hit LoR card Aurelion Sol.
The worst is that instead of addressing the problem that old Asol had, they just got rid of him, which heartbroke me 😢
He was fun in Aram but there was too many ways to counter play him easily. His ult was weak for long cooldown ability and you could literally just sit in melee range and his kit did little to no damage.
@@Lilp2020 The only gameplay I ever saw of Old A-Sol was from the CZcamsr "Sol" and that seemed pretty fun. I believe he reached Masters Onetricking Aurelion.
@@cetofox the one I followed was Quantum Fizzics and Liaphine (who stopped playing which is sad)
I don't like how ryze is currently, anytime I do a combo the empowered q feels like the weakest part of it and the thing that does the most damage is for some reason the e. It just feels off when the thing that is supposed to be "empowered" feels flaccid.
I'd like to see old Xerath back, but his W self-root would probably need a channel time decrease per skill level. But he'd be solid otherwise.
A lot of old champions felt to have a 'less overcomplicated gameplay' and thus being more fun to play. I think the one i miss the most was Urgot. But there are some others that i used to like to play a lot and not anymore: Shen, Akali, Irelia, Warvick...
The two I miss most are old Karma and the OG Katarina. For Karma I loved being able to bait when she was low health. And I really liked how timing Killer Instincts properly could let you enhance both her Shunpo and Bouncing Blade. Plus having Mortal Wounds on an enhanced basic ability instead of her ult meant I didn't have to full commit to a kill just to reduce healing.
Reworks will always be bittersweet. Even if you like the new version you still lose the old one. I will always miss the old Volibear, hes the first champion I ever picked up when i started league in season 2. I didnt main him but he holds a special place in my heart and its sad knowing I'll never be able to play him again. At the same time I ended up loving the new volibear so much that i swapped to being a top main, and am still loving him.
Talon and wukong were 2 big ones that i loved the old versions, but just dont enjoy their new reworks. Wukong is not even a laner anymore due to how strong his double ult is, the rest of his kit had to be nerfed hard. And talon has so much of his power budget built into his E, which i just dont vibe with. I enjoyed his pure combat focus and being a all or nothing assasin(although i do admit he wasnt the healthiest design lol).
This was a great video! It was nice to hear your thoughs on some old champs and I attually feel the same about nearly every one you talked about(never kept up with or cared about ryze reworks).
That's why I advocate to just make a new champion and let the old one be
I really miss old Karma. Having choices on whether to use mantra on straight damage, or healing, or a shield or a shield and damage really separated good Karmas from bad. The tether ability was also really neat and I'm sad it was removed with the rework. Riot tried an interactive tether with Rell and that also was eventually removed. The only thing that really needed to be changed with old Karma was her passive. It was fairly generic as passives were back then and just meant less health = more AP. Her mantra'd Q was so fun to throw in to an ongoing team fight to get big damage and big heals for your teammates. I specifically recall the community being mostly unhappy with the rework, because it felt like it reduced her to a single skillshot spamming champion with her new Q. A lot of interesting gameplay choices for the person piloting the champion were lost.
I would love to play old voli again. Majestic roar was so fun to use. Stopping insecs or riven Knock ups, lucian dashes. god it was fun 😞
I played OG xerath with the self rooting w. It was the one mage that truly made me feel like an artillery piece and his ultimate felt like the fists of an angry god smashing into the earth.
Oh yes! And the joke! power lifting power spawning, power kills, over 400 kills!
The sound effects also HIT like a truck, turning mid lane into a nuclear war zone.
Jeez i almost forgot this guy, he used to be my fav mage.
I miss machine gun ryze. That was so fun, but I admit it was problematic. I hate his current ult.
I really miss old evelynn. She was so versatile... She could be tank, ad, on hit, ap... She had an amazing kit.
I mean she can build Trinity, liche, bork, sunfire... All she wanted and It worked lol
I am of the exact same opinion!
old evelynn was cool. a fantasy blue humanoid with invisibility lvl1. now she became the easy invaded whote of babylon
I miss ad on hit or tank eve so much you have no idea. Now she's just another boring AP assassin. At least give her E some AD scaling or something to bring back the feel of old Eve, the aoe slow and shield based on how many champions you hit was really fun too.
@@Korhi She's good now because her damage is overloaded. Tune down her damage to be in line with other assassins and she will become insta useless. I want my varied Eve playstyles back.
Old asol was so much fun genuinely
i hope there will be a game mode where we can play old version of champions again or maybe in the mmo (im so delu i know), i miss old aatrox soooo much
Riot said no and also shut down Legacy League projects, by the community.
@@nathanc939 yeah i know, thats why i say im delusionnal, one day trust me
As an ADC main, I also miss the old Graves. There are these games when I don't know who to play, when I think 'man, old Graves would be awesome right now'. I see how the rework is good though.
its kind of a wierd take, but i absulotly LOVED fiddlestix's bonus movement speed after standing still
Fiddles old dark wind was such a dope ability
Absolutely. His rework is easily my favorite to date but switch out his new E with his old one and he is perfect@@Liquefaction
Damn. The old Ryze looks fun as heck
Which old Ryze?
Honestly I feel like Gwen is just old irelia without the stun.
I also miss old graves a lot, he was my second most used champion. He didn't have his current reload mechanic and he was slightly more tanky than the average adc that just gets 1 shot.
I'd like to see a video on old Swain when he was decent top laner and not mostly played as support.
Gwen isn't similar to old Irelia except for the ult, that's the only similarity between them.
Once again - A very cool video. Very interesting to watch.
Old Yorick would be so fun to play with today's runes and items, old Galio could also work so well.
A couple years ago I had a dream me and someone else both picked morde at the same time so the game just gave us each a different version, me as old morde in the jungle and the other one our toplaner. It was a very weird dream overall and it's weird that I even remember it since I almost never remember my dreams after they happen.
I've had multiple dreams where I give an in depth Lindsey Ellis and her many Phantom Of The Opera video essays' style detailed explanation of why NewSwain is the damn anti-Christ and an utter insult to everything OGSwain was, from his kit, to his lore, to his design. Then I also once had a dream where someone had a custom fan-skin to make NewSwain look like OGSwain and I spent the entire game following them around like a lost puppy, basking in the lost glory of my one true League love. So TL;DR I understand you completely
@@MidnightDarkness666 sometimes I feel like riot knows people love their characters to an unhealthy point like what we had.
Maybe it's for the best that they are gone so we can move on to other things that make our lives truely worth something
@@gabrielrhodes6882 Nah, I would rather have OGSwain still in my life
i miss old fiddlesticks and mundo most, they were just better to play by me, and fiddlesticks W actually did damage and healed
Old Mordekaiser not being on here feels like a crime, I know a lot of people didn't play him but the people that did play him most quit that's how enjoyable he was. I played him and I even quit for a time. Still, think of him to this day.
I like it when you use Genshin or Star Rail music in your videos, Herta Space Station is a vibe.
Old akali was pretty well designed compared to many other champions and i still prefer her over new akali
I miss Old Ryze and Old Aatrox😭
I would say that old Aatrox in the form of a new champion and old Ryze.
Nice Video, like always.
i miss old aatrox and old urgot, i used to main both of them
I miss old Galio
I was playing im Top and support.. yes support. I had a good win rate with it aswell. Only time i wasn't picking him, is when there was an udyr or a blitzcrank.
His Ultimate was a good game changer, could win us a game by a good Ult. His W countered dots damage and he felt way more of an anti-mage than he is now.
They picked Singed/Teemo/Malzhaar/Old Swain? no problem , i'll counter you with Galio. The new galio feel less unique as a champion as pre-rework. He lost his true identity as being an anti-mage, wich i think is a shame, since there is no more of TRUE anti-mage in the game. There is 2 good anti-melee champion , in Malphite and Rammus. We need an anti-mage.
Great video, I really wish old Galio was on the list though.
I miss the old kat. Extremely weak but the reset gimmick you could go crazy.
I want old azir to be back :(
He didn't have a major rework, only smaller ones where they would take away stuff from his kit like his R blocking dashes, or E having knock up on a champion hit.
I truly miss old Mord, the one before the current iteration. The fact he could be played mid, top, jg, not, support, he was the true definition of a “Flex” pick. And he felt so powerful, and maybe slightly op, but he was also just a fun champ to play. The outplay potential with Q3 and W in wave was so much fun. And then, with old Ryies and Liandries with his ulti, just watching them run and die was so fun. And out ghost dragon buddy… I miss him, and really haven’t touched him since his current iteration.
Currently Irelia is still a stat checker, the only thing you can outplay is the stun, which she uses to start a fight, or while on top of you, like darius E.
Also, I'd like to say, any champ who right clicks you to death is a stat checker
Stat checkers require set amounts of stats to function/dominate.
Irelia isn't one for the sole reason she can dominate from lvl1, and once she gets BotRK it's gg and no way to come back if you fall behind vs her.
Sometimes I'd like to be able to play with the old iteration of Azir before season 8.
I didn't play back in the day but some of his mechanics back than look like a ton of fun to me.
Or Ryze rework number 42069 where he got shields with his combos.
I loved playing old Voli as a support.
I could flip the enemy into a large minion wave, roar to either chain cc or with the flip or to scare away the ganking jgler or engaging support/adc.
Even his passive was great as support.
I could all in and either get a kill or burn a lot of sums and deal nice damage, only to heal my health back and either zone the enemy until they back or dive them again for a kill or two.
I never found a support that's the same amount of fun to me.
I like how you use hsr soundtrack in league of legends videos, I enjoy it :3
I want Old A-Sol back so I can play that dancing battlemage again. I’m not satisfied with how he turned out in his now current iteration.
I'm so happy for your support on simple yet sophisticated designs, that don't need you to be a lawyer in order to understand.
Just like Yu-Gi-Oh, I think that keeping things simple makes everything work just fine. I have designed champions myself (just for fun) and I enjoy simplicity when it meets unique traits.
Anyway, from the video I really miss old Irelia but I think they did a splendid job in remaking of all of them.
Oh, except from old Aatrox, he needs to be brought back...
I absolutely agree with old Graves. A friend of mine played him as ADC and it was his main back then. I loved it when he was my carry and i do miss those times.
i've never clicked so fast on a video in my life, i wish to see old urgot and old aatrox in the list
Ooo another Vars video!!
Old Urgot, genuinely the only champion I miss loved the play style of being a slow moving artillery's unit that also was fairly tanky thanks to passive
I always missed old gangplank, but i played him support, maxing his E and rushing zekes herald.
He could out manoeuvre other supports, won early trades against adc’s, and countered cc with his oranges.
Rushing zeks herald and maxing his E gave your adc a +40 ad advantage by level 9, it was some real hard early game domination.
I will say i missed old sion for similar support reasons, but that was also conditional on the tank support item at the time.
And yeah old mordekaiser was a beast, not to be played by dainty hands. And the bugs he came with were hilarious, its funny how he and viego broke this game so abusively,
My first main champ was WW with the onhit atkspeed tank build, then Aatrox with something similar but AD. When I didn't get Jungle and got shoved to Support or Bot, I used Twitch with his old 60s permastealth Q and farmed the enemy jungler or mid.
Also give me back my Madred's Bloodrazor, I loved doing nonsense with the item, like building it on tank supports and 1v1 ADCs. xD
I miss old urgot man, was one of the few adcs that felt completely unique
As an emerald Ryze main, despite being a massive fan of Realm Warp, I think only brining back desperate power would be cool. I like his new playstyle with the different combos for different situations so I wouldn't want that to change
old yi, particularly AP YI - i would like sword-mage champion that reflects that playstyle of going for short skirmishes before going in the reset multikills
miss when riot did relativly simple champion like olaf xin jax, not like today when every new champ is overloaded and 200years
Old Akali, Galio, and Yorick please. I loved those champions to death. Nothing wrong with new Yorick, but the other 2 don't even play close to same the old ones did.
For me it was old Karma. I just liked healing a lot, she is who got me into playing support... I dont like shields, so I was sad about the rework
Aatrox my beloved… 1 million + points on him pre-rework. I’ll never forget
I understand. I have mastery 6 on him so people assume I play him n aram but barely play him anymore and it's kinda worse the that the season I got gold was his victorious skin so it stings a little I got a season skin on a chaml that used to be one of my favorites but isn't even in my pool of champions to pick in any game mode.
@@LightshaverConstellation thing is pre-rework aatrox isnt even OLD aatrox. OLD aatrox was a poke/sustain champ. His rework was a drain tank. His re-re-rework is the "pre-rework" aatrox that was literally impossible to lose with.
I want precious Sol back. They reworked his entire playstyle.
I got into League for a year ago, i played support for 3 months, and while i was thinking what champion choose to focus on between Kha'Zix and Aurelion Sol (both are my favourites from Wild Rift). But they reworked Asol, took away his identity.
I'm missing that old Aurelion Sol.
Yeah cause "no one" liked his gameplay while his visuals were always at the top in surveys
@@doglopmaz ye, so now the people who do, can't anymore.
They could've added the new one as a separate champion, the same way they could've done with Aatrox.
@@oicmorez4129 for clarity and other reasons you can't have a champ with 2 completely different kits, asol old kit was kidnapping one of the best champs in terms of visuals so they "removed" him, every time you change a champ there will be people who don't like it but in this case and most vgus many other start to like him which is a positive
@@doglopmaz but they took away a champ some people liked, while they could've just made a new one with similar visuals.
I think something to add is that the champions themselves don't necessarily need to come back, moreso their kit and playstyle. Like in the case of old Aatrox, his kit could work really well with a whip-user, like the bladed whip that Hoslo uses in Elden Ring (since they were already inspired by the Urumi after seeing it in ER (lets not kid anyone, nobody knew what an urumi was until Elden Ring did it)) especially for the stanced W where they can switch between extracting and expending health with each auto, and a more fluid weapon would work much better visually for an attack speed oriented champ (lets be real Aatrox practically glitched out with high attack speed swinging that giant sword around).
They could be another Darkin or a product of noxian blood magic like vlad, sion, briar, etc. or maybe even something a bit more off the wall (though I think Darkin & blood magic fits best).
I remember starting League in 2014 and I normally dont play "not good looking" champs but somehow I got stuck on Aatrox, he had something so fun and I really adored playing him. The new one feels sooo bad to play for me.
Vars league videos is always a good morning
I want the old heimerdinger back. Where I place the turret anywhere on the map and they will still shoot if you get near them.
old voli was my favorite, one of my favorite passives of all time
1:16 Honestly, I think current Aatrox is way unhealthier for the game than the old one was. He's has to go through a ton of balance issues to get him to where he is now, a champ that hardly builds bruiser mythics and instead goes for assassin mythics. His chain of cc is ridiculous considering how much he heals, super unfun to go against even when im winning and is a poorly designed champ as a result
I used to love playing the wonky champions, Old urgot, old swain, old yorick, q spam raka top... ap master yi, ap trist... both ad and ap sion... good times.
They should rerelease these as alternative versions that you can purchase. Might add more fun having people with two different kits on chanp. Maybe make it lock out the alternate when picking champs.
I'd like the old Taric and Urgot to come back, playing Taric Support with more offensive combat in mind was always fun, plus his Gem theme was very unique. Urgot was fun also as Support with a Tanky poke build focusing on Slowing Enemies and shredding their defenses. (Also Gem Knight Taric was my Main back in the day so some bias here.) But I don't like how Riot Games said they wanted Volibear to be more than "An Armored Polar Bear running at you..." When he's still just a Polar Bear running at you post rework, only now there's no armor. Also Old Maokai ult was a OP AF on ARAM.
Old poppy was fun with shiv triforce and IE, change my mind.
Also I miss 1v1ing people top with old taric 😂
I want old akali back honestly. If rather she be a relatively simple and weak champ than an uber complex and strong one. Her current design just creates too big of a gap between the lower and higher end of skill.
i miss old fiddlesticks, he had a scooby do villan, and using E for shocking burst earlygame was the first time i had fun in league
and just sitting still drain tanking someone had me laughing like a madman
I miss old zilean. I always played support zil and would max my e then w to be the ultimate time lord by perma slowing my enemys. I only used my bombs if the enemy god close enough but besides that, i was a lay back support player.
old Aatrox going full ap jumping into five people and pressing R with Luden's proccing on them all, oneshotting half their team was super fun.
I came here to say that you didn't cover Galio pre-rework, and I'm happy to see I'm not the only one who misses our old anti-mage.
I want old Mord back, they turn a fun niche champ into AP Darius, truely a crime worst than death
Alright Vars. I'm issuing you a challenge. Since you put Star Rail music in this video. Make a video with Streets Abuzz.
Not a champ but I want old reksai ult it’s just so cool imo
1:28 Well everyone has a past 1:32 Well, that caught me off guard lol, didn't think you were a Horsewomen main
I miss old Eve and old Aatrox a lot.
Eve was just fun to play with smite and Ghost in the support role and just make the enemy jungler feel miserable.
Aatrox was my favourite splitpusher as his ult's attack speed buff just allowed him to take turrets in no-time + with the relatively short cooldown, you could just rinse&repeat it pretty often.
Old Taric was so good, a stunning team start stick. So fun top lane
