Yeah you read that right. Blitzcrank top lane has a 100% winrate in professional league of legends. This is one of the coolest, strangest, most off meta build of all the off-meta builds, and yet pros in the EU LCS (now LEC) and GPL (now PCS) have managed to keep a 100% winrate with blitz. It's an insane story and one of my personal favorite off meta best moments in league of legends history. This is the story of when blitzcrank top lane seemed almost OP in pro league of legends.

One more thank you to Ridge for sponsoring the channel. I'm glad I can take a legit sponsor from a company that makes an actually good product to support the channel and myself. If you want to check them out and give them some support too head over to ridge.com/GBAY99
I was partially correct! Got the Lane Swap part correct 🥲
And the double jungle!!
Any chance you could do a video on the history of "non meta" strategies that became popular in competitive. The lane swap thing you spoke of reminded me of that, but there's been a lot of stuff like funnel comps, mage bot, etc.
1:50 the funny part is, i find my self saying "god, why the hell was udyr ever added to the game? can we please remove or nerf movement speed champions!!!" more than i say that about samira. not counting the movement speed part of course lol. even thought she is un ironically 5x more broken than udyr is.
Where do I put my coins un a Ridged Wallet ?
The evolution of Gbay’s content over the 5-6 years I’ve watched is glorious and inspiring
Burnieee
he found what he wants to do :)
so true back in the day his content didn't really seem to have as much passion behind it then he does nowadays. also remember gbay was one of the first ppl to start a "road to x" series on yt and while that diea blasted off watching him do it kinda felt like he was forcing himself to do it and at the time it was really interesting how he seemed to do something he didn't particularly enjoy. either way i'm just glad that now he's making stuf he definitely enjoys seems like journalism truly is his passion
Still miss his Irelia tilts in road to something
@@dinho178 same mate
3:25 "a Babysitter support who can help a adc farm up for late game" *shows bard*
I felt like that statement isn't even true. There are many teams that don't play that way.
That's it I'm out
*portals away to mid lane*
@@ImAnBoosterBaby There are aggressive supports in LoL today but when was the last time you saw an ADC solo lane the entirety of laning phase? It's been a really long time since that's been a meta strat.
@@gbay99 Not the entire game. But I have to think of any adc who has to play with IgNar, for example. ^^
Damn I thought you were about to say Thresh after that 😂
It is not Xmas till riot lets us play in the Christmas themed summoners rift
They are lazy as hell so probably wont get it. Been wanting a Halloween map again for years
they do snow map every year bro@@__-yu2mz
They won't do it because the changes to dragons and how the maps change (erth drake, fire drake) they had to redraw all the snow on the new maps and so it won't be ready this year
@@twplustwoisthree Not since elemental dragons and how they change map's appearance.
There's a league of legends modding community and you can enable it anytime
I know how much more work you put in the very long documentaries, but I hope these
Agreed. i usually watch them before falling asleep. So for me this is perfect. The others I usually watch in 2-3 sittings, which is also fine, but I don't know what it does for the algorithm
“Supports are attached to their adc”
Gbay missed the pantheon supports at worlds I guess
i mean,in today s league of legends pro scene the support is basically a second jungler
his point isn't that supports don't roam cuz they do but when was the last time you saw there be no support in the bot lane at the start?
@@LIAuNXeNON fair enough
If u kill the enemy first then u don't need a support 🤣
@@LIAuNXeNON kaiwing definitely did that this worlds if I remember correctly
If I had a penny for every pro blitz top games I would Have three pennies, and that isnt a lot but its kinda amazing It happened more than once.
ohh that doof reference XD
Darn it I was coming down here to make that reference specifically and I'm pretty sure that it's nickel.
@@MadHatter1B3 Yeah that is probably true, I was super unsure when I was typing it out
Gbay should be more dedicated videos like this by tryharding 16 hours a day in solo que, reaching high challenger, getting on a pro team after years of grinding and then running it down top lane with blitz in the worlds finals.
Power creep of champions? More like power creep of Gbay's video quality. The documentary type videos are superb!
good thing that guy in tylers chat was so adamant so i found this channel. so when's the duo tyler1
Now we are taking!!!
This guy gets it
you should check out the trash taste podcast and their vid about league youtubers, ur mentioned in there
Yeah I saw that! Gigguk is a really cool dude and I thanked him for the shoutout :)
@@gbay99 it was nice seeing you and darkkmane get mentioned, and it was kinda interesting to hear them talk about the evolution of your channel through time, from a gameplay only channel (at least as i can remember) to these awesome documentaries.
That said, i miss those times haha.
nice seeing a fellow trash-taster out here :^)
@Kami NN the last one i think, its 2 hours of youtube shoutouts.
So Gbay, did anyone guess it correctly on the community post the other day?
Nope! But you guys gave me plenty of good video ideas lmao
@@gbay99 Yes! The good ol’ content farm!
@@gbay99 Intentional or not.... the trap worked xD
@@gbay99 I knew it hahaha. Good thing tho, love your content!
@@gbay99 well getting ideas from different places is always fun
I remember that 2013 game. I remember watching it a few times because I found it to be one of the absolute coolest team comps ever. Playing around a Kataina with two disrupting supports, an ADC that can care for himself (Ezeeal) and an J4 jungle to lock people in so Kata can kill them and have a reliable front line. To this day it's one of my favorite games ever played in the professional league. Glad to see it again 😊
Great video Mr. Gbay!
This came up in my feed this time! Quality content as always. Thanks Gbay
This video is brilliant, lure them in with the improbable premise and then use it to educate people about fascinating old League strategies, love it!
Loved all the work you have done over the years. I watch everything. And sometimes when I’m on the line at work cooking food for fancy people, it’s nice to listen to league stories when it gets all crazy with all the orders.
one of the reasons why pro lol was much more interesting back then!
Really enjoyed this shorter and more "casual" vid gbay. I enjoy all your videos of course, but I will say I originally followed you way back when you made your daily vids and this reminded me of those in all the best ways. It is kind of a happy medium between your long, deeply researched, professional documentaries and your short, funny, casual gameplay videos and I, for one, hope you make more of these in between your long documentaries from now on. Any and all content from you more often is appreciated
it's crazy to see all this cause when i started playing in s3, i did this exact strategy cause it was more fun to 2v1 and still win against people mispositioning XDD instead of going top tho, i would stay bot alone while having 2 people top lane. Amazing doc gbay
Soooo happy you decided to release these types of videos. Love these documentary style videos you do. You're the only one who makes these types of videos well on CZcams in my opinion.
I guess LoL was in his peak around 2014... such great memories from Season 1-3
I love you Gbay keep up the content!!! We all love these documentary videos!!
Gbay99’s documentary’s are so great. Keep doing great things man :)
Great video as always! As a support main, I think roaming supports are much more prevalent today than what you said in the video, though it does depend on the player.
Best example I can think of is Damwon's Beryl, especially with his signature pick, Pantheon. With Ghost being a self-sufficient ADC, Beryl no longer needed to baby sit bot lane so he can roam and impact the solo lanes.
He wasn't lying when he said not a goddamn soul would guess what his next project was about. Goddamn.
Really enjoyed this one, aswell as the Teemo one. Like their length and subject
Great video chief. As a blitzcrank main, this was particularly interesting to learn about. I wonder how it would look with current runes and items though. Would have been nice if you looked into how people are playing it in SoloQ rn at a high level if anyone is.
One video per week for the last few weeks and they have all been great👍👍
Keep up the great work gbay
Damn these are some deep cuta, the throwback is real. Research and video storage dusting is absolutely outstanding.
You dropped out of my notifications for so long, I'm so glad your video got recommended to me so I could sub!
glad you're back friend :)
"early seasons of league"
Ah yes, season 1 and 2
*Shows a clip with an oracle lense*
WAIT
Always happy to see your new videos
i love seeing gbay’s new vids slowly do better and better with views and likes, he really deserves it 👍🏻
I don't play League of Legends anymore like I used to but I have been a fan of your content for years and still enjoy today. Keep it up 👏
I play blitz top from time to time, like today for example. He was made for top when he first came out, and he never really got a full rework to push him into support. You have to understand that he has 3 different effects that empower his autoattacks, thats why he can potentially work as a AD bruiser for top.
Blitzcrank will always be a fun champ to play. One of my favourite champs when I first started playing in season 3. Great video Gbay
Gbay88 I’m loving the league pro documentary. Could you do a Gbay99 season documentary? Maybe how your love for specific champs change? I know you used to play a lot of irelia
Most importantly keep making content that you love making so if non of these ideas sound good no worries!
Idk why it says 88 XD fat finger I guess
Beautiful !
This was an early Xmas gift !
Good shit Gbay
I watched most of this video thinking it was donghuap, im impressed Gbay, haven't watched your videos since irelia rework, but this looks really good. I'll watch some more!
I’m really happy to watch these kinds of videos, where GBay seems to be enjoying himself just as much as we are.
I remember watching that second soaz game back then
it's been a hot minute
it's been a while since i saw ur vid on the home page. glad to be back watching u gbay
Another great video with a top notch script and visuals. Keep up the great work, Gbay!
Awesome video Gbay!
There was, up until recently, a toplane blitzcrank OTP known as Prim0. He reached high diamond in EUW going AD/Tank blitzcrank. Sadly he couldn't play the game much during 2020.
Damn first time in like 4 yrs I’ve seen Gbay, really brings u back
Fucking love you Gbay, this I’m happy to say this was recommended to me and I loved it. Been watching you since season 4 and 5 your old stories made me so happy man. Keep it up stay well.
I remember you talking about melee and you getting sent random gamer fuel that you had the police inspect made me laugh so hard... this was a fun and amazing video thanks for making intriguing league content still I have such a soft spot for the game.
How does your content improve with video? Great job man, loving your stuff
You are very good at making videos, keep up the good work. Can’t wait for the next video.
Thanks man I really appreciate it :)
Another amazing video Gbay!
>Talks about powercreep
>Most recent event shown in video is 2015
Lol
The video isn't about power creep it's about blitz lol
@@gbay99
I know it isn't about powercreep, just found it funny you mentioned something along the lines of:
"Newer champions leave old champions in the dust."
Yet the latest example is in 2015, before many overloaded kits came up
Now this video is just exactly what I needed as an inspiration
Gbay99: Blitzcrank not good in competitive
Ignar: Let me introduce myself
5:20 Mundo was actually the king at this time cause he was a late game champion that farmed early with Q :)
another fantastic vid gbay
Yes, gbay, keep slaying, content is fire lately.
Keep up the good work, love the vids !
14:50: I watch videos to forget about my own sad reality. Thanks for dragging me back, Gbay :(
I'd like to see some interviews integrated in the video with old coaches or players, would do so much. Great vid though, keep it up :)
this content is so good ive never even played league but i still watch
Sick vid gbay
Another great video from the man
cant wait to see this in my solo queue games this week...
Ahhh, Blitz top what a great strat. Pioneered my Scarra if I recall correctly.
Beautiful Moments in LoL History....I'm here for it
Love your content Goldbay99 :D
Awesome vid!!
I really like these hero concentrated video’s 😊
tnx for the upload
Another fantastic video
Leaving a comment to feed the algorithm! Always love your videos Gbay, super interesting even for someone who's only casually interested in League esports like me
your content is getting better and better each time you post.
I love you gbay99 id die for you. You're precious to the league community
A rolling golem gathers no rust
Looks like the algorithm is working got this on my recommendation even though I haven’t seen this guys before
Great video!
IT's awesome to see you actually interact here in the comments. Good on ya!
I just want more gbay solo queue/climbing videos
I used to love it a few seasons ago
This is giving me all kinds of ideas.
This is cool I guess blitzcrank is so out there for top owners to deal with and they just don't expect it
What a great nostalgic video
Good Video! I enjoyed it! However, the amount of times I've had to dodge games because kids want to try playing blitz top since the release of this video has been ridiculous!
I'm proud to be a blitz main
My man!
Me too but i still hate the w nerf. I hate the slow
@bluedream90 Man that W nerf really sucks,its the reason why i die most of the times in recent games.
I think blitz could be a viable support in pro play with how prominent the lvl 4 roams top or mid is in proplay, especially if ezreal becomes popular
What a quick 17 mins wonderful fun
Fuckin hell Gbay uploaded. Its a good day. Pog.
Gbay going from daily vids with minimal editing to weekly/monthly videos having the best editing is like a proud daddy moment.
Glad to hear you like the new style my man :)
YEEEAAHHHHHH GBAY VIDEOS OUT BABY
Started playing 2 months ago so it's really weird seeing the older style maps for me
Good Job, great video
I hate how much creativity was put into league in the early days in contrast to today. Not only can you no longer be creative (jungle/lane; go AP on an AD champ [old Yi]; roaming; lane swapping), people are now forced to think that by going off-meta, you're either trolling or inting.
We love you Gbay, never leave us again please 🥺
Hey this seems to be getting out to people.....16k in the first 2 hours whoot. Keep on making videos gbay. We'll always watch 'em.
Fun fact "roaming support" was a reportable offense that riot took offense against, resulting in account suspensions.
awesomee video!
Would you consider making a video about any of the G2 players (excluding Perkz for a couple reasons), I feel like Wunder or Jankos have interesting characters/stories.
I like how Gbay's every other sentence sounds like a question?
I agree with you?
damnnnn soaz follows gbay
what a legend
Happy to see this video actually ended up in my recommended. Your last video never showed up and I would've probably never seen it if it wasn't for you community post
