I've been an Irelia one trick pony in League of Legends for as long as I can remember. Irelia got reworked recently, and as much as I loved it at first, I soon found myself struggling to figure out her new abilities. Riot likely wont ever revert the changes, so if I want to keep maining Irelia I had to learn her new kit. Out of options and desperate for some sort of resolution I knew what I had to do - so I booked a ticket to South Korea, the League of Legends capital of the world, in search of answers.

THE OLD MERCH STORE HAS BEEN REBOOTED! I'd rather sell merch than sellout to sponsors if I can so come get your One trick/Irelia one trick shirts, as well as the good ol' boosted animal shirt from back in the day!
teespring.com/stores/gbay99
How dare you not sell out to: Honey, NordVPN, Raid: ShadowLegends and more!
ahnahnah I wanna see ur raid shadow legends sponsor
gbay when you getting out of gold If i can go from silver 1 to gold 1 in 18 days then you can get out of gold.
is boosted animal v neck shirt tee only available in one color?
Yo GBAY, if you need some new designs for your store just hit me up, i would be super stoked to give something back to you after all these years of free education and entertainment!! peave brother
my mans traveled to korea just to get hardstuck in diamond again
pog
The humble pilgrimage of gbay99 🙏
Not fun of gaybay99 but ey at least he is dia comparing to your bronze ass
he is still gold 1
Everyone's journey is different
gbay: I traveled to Korea just to ask kiin how to play Irelia
kiin: just Q to minions man
ye that got me too xD
#Worth
tbh the thing with the aa's in between makes a lot of sense. I thought gbay knew that you have to stack the minions to be on low hp so insta 5 stacks at lvl 1 and easy kill but tbh I expected sth more spicy
bgay:*
Sometimes it's hard to Q the minion 15:10
10:42
"...Not to enter korea unless absolutely necessary."
* shifts to Irelia splash art *
" *THIS* was absolutely necessary."
I loved this part.
Can we take a moment to appreciate he lost to yummi top :)
He even got completely dumbstered
this might be late but Yuumi is a surprisingly good top laner. if you want to see Yuumi top watch Tilterella's video on it
@@xlucyfer a challenger player smashing silver ppl? Wow so amazing !! He is so good.
@@NFSFR34K lmao
Ngl Yuumi has pretty good base dmg
Me: Oh look Gbay is gonna do a simple interview
Gbay: Now, this is the story all about how my life got flipped-turned upside down...
AtlantisSettler ID like to take a moment, just sit right there
The last one To tell you how I got from one tricking irelia
666 Likes noice
Gbay: *loses to pro players on a champ he doesn’t really play anymore*
Gbay: *surprised pikachu face*
LMAO ouch
Well, he lost to a Yummi top so that is not really an excuse.
@@1997lordofdoom Yuumi Top is apparently a good choice, Tiltarella did a video on it recently, You just have to be REALLY good at the game to make it work.
Cute Kurama I can’t imagine a worse champ tbh
@@Rosewell8 i havent played the game in a while but are you serious when you say that? That sounds like such a troll pick
This is literally an anime plot, someone wants to become the strongest and travels to a legendary land to train under a legendary sensei
I'd say an old Kung fu movie but that works too.
yep
And sensei says something really trivial that actually makes sense
Correction, the problem with *new* Irelia is that old players wanted to play her the old way.
Its like giving a 60 year old a smart phone and waiting 3 minutes for them to type a sentence with 1 finger
>"I got on a plane to South Korea in search of answers"
>Can't tell if this a Nick Robinson reference or not
I guess it is! :D
Right? Gbay is just turning into Nick but with Korea, I love these kind of videos
Yeah, he referenced him as an inspiration in his streams
6:40 this is cursed.
The one after that is even worse
Fucking 90's wallpaper
Blessed*
Imagine flying 13+ hours of flight, spending kinda alot of money, editing this video and recording footage, spending alot of time with the pro's to ask. How do I Irelia? Kiin: Just get minions to low hp (Duuuuh) 10/10
He got paid money and everything was taken care of by afreeca
Reminds of the "KOREAN ANALYSYS BTW" joke Dumbs make in a World stuff video lmao
"I tried to be professional, asking him all the regular interview questions."
*What are your thoughts on Hashinshin?*
A question that every toplaner should be asked xD
5:15 "Her playstyle has been completely reversed" laughs in Aatrox main
fml, I wish they could revert aatrox back
*laughs in Mordekaiser*
Does aatrox main existed before the rework? lol
Laughs in urgot
@@Lucho-gk4sp not until he got buffed and op
"I own every playable character in this game"
*shows that he owns Wukong*
at least he is getting a remake.
new wukong omega op abuse it while you can
@@arias1610 he shittin on everyone
Time ?
Though many of Gbay's Skills are dubious at best; he holds one title: he is the BEST STORYTELLER IN TOP LANE. :D
Exil is his 2nd in command
@@ThatWildcard exil is plain bad
@@bellybutton3806 pardon?
16:16 "0-3, like a EU vs China grand finals"
"I will only main cat champion." Gbay 2020
Gbay: Yuumi cannot be played without a teammate to bind to, right?
Ross and Tilterella: *laughs in Yuumi top and AD Yuumi jungle*
good thing ross just trolls all around the place
Ross is shitty silver.
6:19 Did he just quote the American Declaration of Independence to explain why he is hardstuck gold?
MURICA
Best top laner in the world...
TheShy confused noises
exactly what I was thinking lol
I that kiin has had much more longevity in his talented career then theshy. theshy was only a usually 1 almost 2 season pop off top laner whose hype has already died down meanwhile kiin has consistantly been the best top laner in korea for 4 seasons now. you could argue at times khan was better but there are situation reasons to that argument
U mean chokekayleshy?
@@iceicejay9569 don't get me wrong Kiin is amazing, but Kiin joined AF in 2017 (before that he was in CK with E8W), the same year TheShy joined IG. From then til now IG has won the LPL regular season a few times and spring 2019 (with TheShy being the MVP of Spring 2019 playoffs), Worlds 2018, rift rivals, etc...AF has one Kespa Cup this year, that's all.
Also, TheShy has made a case not only for best top laner, but for best players in the world, period, in the last few years, and although the LPL has been delayed this season, IG is leading the competition, and TheShy has been looking pretty good.
So although I don't think Kiin is a slouch and there's no comparison, Kiin hasn't had more longevity nor more success than TheShy. But again, Kiin is probably the best top laner in LCK, and definitely one of the best in the world.
this is a problem also where I value consistency above all else. and theshy i feel is just too inconsistent
This genuinely makes me so happy, old gbay is back!
The relationship between Gbay and Irelia is like the greatest love story to have ever existed! XD
All the highs and lows, the break-ups and the reunions... The drama's insane!
If happy for you gbay, you’ve had some lows and high throughout CZcams and this is a definite high. I can’t wait to see one of my favorite content creators climb to the top again!
1:07
Wow, truer words have never been spoken
no
Is this new Justin.Y
👏🏻👏🏻🙌🏻
0-3 PTSD
Theshy looks weird in this interview.
Shane Su trueeeee
o god neither of them is the best
@@Populous3Tutorials who then?
yeet Gbay99
Shane Su the shy has been underperforming recently so idk about that
Great Video Gbay! Been trying to play Irelia top lately myself and this has been HUGE insight. Thanks for posting this man! GG
These documentary style videos are the best. They always amp me up to get back to grading ranked. I really enjoy seeing these in my notifications. Keep up the great work!
Oh yes...
Some really high quality Gbay99 content, loving it!
Edit: that final line gave me chills
Damm some of those clips were so fucking clean.
I have been watching you for ages now at this point. And its just fun looking what your doing and I will stay around!
I'm super excited to see the next ranked video now
I love these vids so much. They bring me joy and comfort.
*Next Video:*
How to Play: High Major Commodore of the First Legion Third Multiplication Double Admiral Artillery Vanguard Company Kled
YOU WILL RESPECT MY AUTHORITY!
This is probably the best video I have ever seen very nicely made and conducted.
This is 100% the most effort I've ever seen go into a league video and I am here for it. Great video!
I like how he makes these videos so that someone who doesn't know league could also understand him
ah of course, the first thing i do when my main gets reworked and i have a hard time getting used to it is to go to SouthKorea, classic
I'm happy to hear you've found love in League and Irelia again :D can't wait for more Irelia gameplay and the documentary!
Goddamit these videos are just getting better and better. Good stuff gdad
What a rollercoaster, I laughed, I cried. Goldbay is back. Los Gehts!
Glad you had such a positive experience in KR.
Keen to see you learn Irelia once again :)
You know you are a good content creator when you can get a community of Irelia mains to watch a 21 minute video for the one sentence that we came for. haha. nice vid. still don't know how the eff to play irelia well though.
I sincerely doubt a majority of his viewers are Irelia mains.
Source - not Irelia main
Dude! This video was so great! Congrats!
Ending song: Hallmore - its her :)
the real mvp
Thank you man i've been searching forever for this :)
This man goes on a real life journey to south korea for solo Q. XD
good production sir and welcome back!
Fucking hell this was an amazing video. Gives me goosebumps. You knew what you wanted and went for it. Inspiring, motivational, creative. Stay safe. And after all these years of watching your vids in recommended, I have finally subscribed.
I dont think words can describe how happy I am that gbay is back to playing irelia.
I literally can't explain to you how much i relate to this video. I played irelia for about 3 seasons straight. She became literally my favorite champ pretty quick, and i played her almost every. single. game. I stopped playing this game for a little while, and made a dedicated attempt to come back to it just to play new Irelia, seeing as the old one was gone forever. I still can't come back to this game, because all i want to do is play irelia, and i can't seem to grasp the game and new irelia's playstyle. I really really REALLYYYYYYYYYY miss old Irelia...
Please, make more videos regarding Irelia's playstyles, and tips and tricks. This made me super happy seeing a fellow irelia one trick find their momentum and feel good about the games their playing and feel like they're taking something from each game. I literally know EXACTLY how you felt when you were learning her, not catching it, and feeling like she just wasn't for you anymore, because i went through the same exact thing only to find myself again... searching for videos on youtube on how to adapt to new irelia or if there was something that i just wasn't taking advantage of that was causing me a lack of success. I feel like i've already realized that you need to setup minions to make irelia work, in terms of her passive and damage. I downloaded league on my labtop again for the first time since i've had it. (got it last year for christmas) and i'm super excited to try her out again. Just waiting for the current update to finish. Best of luck, Gbay!
GOod choice in music, narration, editing and feels. Well done gbay99, i've watched you for over 5 years now and I'll still be watching you for another 5 years to come :P
These types of videos are great, never stop
This man flew around the world to find out killing minions wins games
well now I'm hyped for the Afreeca documentary
I love your content! You are inspirational! ! Keep it up!
I love the mix of Old GoldBay content and Documentary elements in this video
Gbay’s not only back on LoL, but also back on Irelia?? Is it Christmas already?
Gbay sometime ago: I no longer want to be known as an irelia one trick
Gbay now: I now want to be a irelia one trick again
This was such a fun video to see! I love the content that you put out.
I was also planning to main irelia this season and then this video pops up. Dayum this inspire me even more to main her.
I recommend you the "Irelia still the main" song!
5:28 "irelia a lategame scaler"
I beg to differ
This
When the rework came out she was a late game scaler. She's a midgame champ now due to all the nerfs.
Great video man. Really inspirational video, wish I wasn't lockdown without a laptop to grind 😭
This might be my personal favourite video of yours. Great job!
"they dont care if they win or lose the match, if they solo kill the top lane thats a win for them" AND YOU WONDER WHY PEOPLE HATE THE GAME.
Gbay, I feel so happy that you found your passion for Irelia again. It always feels like something is missing in your videos when you can't play her or have fun with her. I hope you can find more than just your passion, but a love for your character as a whole.
Edit : ♥
This is the most inspirational video i’ve come across so far.. thank you, it means so much ❤️
Awesome video. Definitely gave me the drive to keep on keeping on with my champs.
I was thinking about it recently, and I think Gbay has the best documentaries and historical League content in this platform.
Not only because he puts his soul, heart, and, most of the time, his own personal background and storylines into the actual docs, but because *all* the content he has made over the years is a fascinating and REALLY entertaining look at how League has evolved.
Like, if you watch the first Road to Diamond series he made (and practically invented), you get to understand the old Runes System and Dynamic Queue. And it just grows from there, man. I have to say, the old items are CRAZY, and I know about them only because I watched Gbay's videos, which are, again, really entertaining. Not to mention the old background music, jesus. For some reason I find it really nostalgic when watching the new ones.
I think his main, Irelia, and his constant struggle with her changes (the catalyst for this video in particular) is a good reflection of all this. You can actually go back and watch how he played and loved the character, and understand the old mechanics because of it (he probably took so long to understand the minion thing because in old Irelia you just needed one low health minion to stun someone and do the combo). AND HER ULT WAS SO WEIRD BACK THEN. What happened ?
So thanks, Gbay. For making a pretty difficult and conflicting game for you into some of the most entertaining videos on CZcams for us.
Someone help me out please :< What's the song starting around 19:05?
not sure if you're still looking but the song is Hallmore - It's Her
The end made me cry thats fire.
Love it man, things are looking up for you! Keep it up, from Australia with love!
This is one of the most entertaining videos ever XD
Last time i was this early Gbay was eating a sock
gbay is back at it with amazing vids again! wonderful watch bro
This video was amazingly made, loved it
TheShy?
Yeah for me its the shy as well
Or Khan
That's mean he had to travel China where Coronavirus originated
We miss the old gbay99 road to diamond irelia :(
Yo that song at the end when gbay is poppin off got me hype!
Thank u man, u reseted my mindset!
and made me remember the passion that I have for playing the game!
keep up
Nobody:
Gbay: goes to Korea amidst the coronavirus outbreak
remember the old 'art of war' 'art of league' gbay?
calm down, focus and be smart
edit: pro tip, your champ has abilities, use them!
god this was a fabulous video fucking glorious 11/10 :D. really enjoy having these kinds of videos along side the gbay 100 vids :P
this was such a good video ngl so much effort!
Gbay this is literally the basics of irelia lmao
he might be the worst irelia main on the planet
Duh indeed.He is having TF blade in his back yard yet he goes to Korea to make this crap content, i like the guy don't get me wrong still this made me think that he is not that smart, not that iq has much with league but common...
Sometimes you just got to hear from someone else what you are doing wrong
Le Quack ok that might be a little too far man relax LMAOOOOOO I’m laughing so hard rn😂😂
waitngo he was really good at irelia before rework
Gbay: “Irelia became unplayable on toplane”
person who got rank 1 on 4 different servers playing Irelia and Jax: “LISTEN BUDDY”
Arias XD
This video is so dramatic but happy at the same time, really happy for you.
The effort you put into this video really shows. Well played gbay :)

Been with you since the very beginning Gbay. Been nice to see how much you've grown and how far you've come.
Dude this made me subscribe again to your channel. Im glad you made this vid
Joke in the title gbay is the best top laner in the world. He asked himself
10:21 what an intellectual you are for acknowledging that he's one of the best top laner. Ohmygod he's super underrated.
Yaay another GBay Documentary incoming!
By the by, the most fun I have while watching your video, is when you are positive, optimistic, and this was a fun video to watch!
this was amazing man, i laughed so hard in many parts and it was a pleasure to watch this
17:17 "if anyone knew how to play Irelia, it would be him"
TF Blade: *laughs
@ShowMaker yes but skillwise he's pretty good, when irelia got reworked tf blade flooded her with montages, he's also in the US so he doesn't need to bother to go to SK to ask how to play Irelia 2k20
ShowMaker 650 LP challenger (mostly Jax but still) is really good in KR
you asked hashinshin how to play irelia?
Keep that promise Gbay, you inspire us all
I love how you reframe this completely from previous videos about Korea to give a totally different story
