- This documentary is a League of Legends story about one of my favorite teams from the game's early history and their subsequent blowup after almost winning LoL's first Worlds. An all French LoL squad who had some of the best pros lol esports ever saw but who not everyone got to make it big in the lcs/lec era...

I mention in this video that Kujaa was a sort of "French Ocelote." If you'd like to see my documentary on Ocelote it's over here - • League's Most Hated Pl...
A similar blowup and sudden halt came to another dominant early League of Legends team which I documented here - • When the FBI Destroyed...

Early league victories on LAN: "YES!" *20 seconds of taking off 3 different headphones*
I really don't get the part that they used to wear like 3 different headphones. Will you mimd explaining it to me? xD
@@joeyzamora1689 If I remember right, one was for teamspeak, one for league, and the other was a mic to use for teamspeak and also riot. But not 100% on that
@@joeyzamora1689 Also For canceling out casters and the crowd.
@@TheRealSonicBeats Yeah it looks like it's in-ears for game, one headset with the mic for voice capture, and noise cancelling cans so that outside can't be heard
@@TheRealSonicBeats Ye, when i played PUBG Lan finals we also had IN ears for game sound and outside Headphones for Noise Canceling
Looking through this documentary, its extremely impressive how long sOAZ stayed at the top of his game.
Doublelift
Soaz is still a world class tank player
@@gzdnff can you really compare a man who reached the final of the worlds 7 years apart with a man who never got out of group stages ?
@@OzzyArch117 well shit man yo ujust killed him.
@@LoganSkylarCox he wasn't a tank player back then, he used to play all kind of stuff like Wunder nowadays
I can feel Tyler's energy through my screen at 0:24 even without sound. He truly is built different.
;)
Sup sup!!!

Guardsman Bob is a name I haven't heard in a long time, wow. I remember watching a ton of his streams and videos, he was such a chill guy.
Last I heard from him he was the target of a witch hunt on the forums regarding a fake romance with Nidalee or something...
He still streams, but I think he does programming challenges instead of league.
He used to play Guild Wars too before streaming some people told me. I didn't know him personnaly but I've played with him some times in PvP. Also met him in hearthstone.
@@spykeex69 he does still play league too, but it is 99% mf gameplay.
Aw man when I remember the old squad guardsman bob, Vman, SivHD, hell when I think of it trick2g was also huge back in s1-s3. And oh my god all streamers were on curse.tv there was no twitch lmao
In every esport, the french scene has monsters, gods of their respective games but only a few times do we have success because most of the time, egos can't be checked and petty fights break out. That's actually very disheartening to see as a fan myself.
Only esports?
@@jgih32 nah but I wanted to stick to the subject to not write a fucking essay lmao
Yeah same for rocket league I feel, french mens are dominating but sometimes the ego gets in the way
Exactly. Same thing in French CS where really good players basically have their career ended because they have bad relationships with other french players. Bodyy having beef with Apex is a good example of this.
@@f4yg020 yeah, and even non carreer ending beef. The number of superteams we had with Scream, Shox or KennyS to name only a few, those that did not meet expectations. We had such high expectations, major winners, eras were predicted from analysts, yet it was almost always underwhelming to some degree.
This was one of my favorite teams in early League of Legends history. I had a lot of fun getting to deep dive into their history this week and I hope you guys enjoy learning about their story in this little documentary :)
Wow that made me really nostalgic. I remember the first season championship and staying awake to watch the final. That game winning arrow. Thank you for this Video.
I'm nostalgic for the time you said you wanted to chat with your fans about things like finance and investing :)! Much love gbay!
It was a great video. Enjoyed it dude.
Would be fun to see Rara documentary. He didnt perform very well himself but his team had chance of winning majors. After he was replaced by statistically stronger players that team looked much weaker, did few player changes and than stopped trying to be tier 1 anymore pretty much the end of french 1.6 scene.

Worst timing: Yellowstar’s Contract for LDLC expired today
This is the kind of engrossing narrative that keeps me coming back.
Keep up the good work!
10:00 Imagine someone saying forest today instead of jungle lol
VN still uses forest instead of jungle
I was thinking the same thing but im literally in xchamp select rn and its literally a forest tho kek
Even back in Season 1, it wasn't common to hear Forest. Jungle was the colloquial term borrowed from DotA and it was definitely the more prevalent erm.
Would junglers be foresters then?
French here. Played LoL and watched competitiv from beginning of S1 to last year and remember these first days fondly. Gbay's knowledge about it is ON POINT.
7:47 Camera man is no simp xddd
Ye but u are
That Linak guy literally looks toxic lmao
Yea looks like a real douche, like his appearance, his cloths (the baggy pants and the chain), his posture, even his face somehow all scream that he is an asshole.
Linak looks so upset in all footage, not to be a backseat psychologist, but (gaming) toxicity issues often stem from real life problems and unsolved frustrations.
Linak looks like he'd be toxic, just the way the dude looks screams he's got some issues going on and is going to be difficult.
Probably a beaten child whose parents neglected.
Linak looks like Gangsta Mr.Bean
@@sonixka257 ong lmao
@@sonixka257 kitten mafia
That's the face of a person who is caught in the hell that is being really good at something you hate.
Now this is the documentary I need to start my day.
It's always a pleasure watching your videos Gbay
God my man Gbay really be storming us with new documentaries lately ! Thanks a lot, loved the vids !
Brings back memories of the only League tournament I ever watched. aAa vs Fnatic and shushei's AP Alistar. Got me emotional a bit, thanks for reminding me of the good old days Gbay.
I had always wondered what happened to that team after season 1 and now I know so thank you for that.
Every time you upload a documentary/video essay it makes my day, keep up the good work GBay
I'm so glad you used Joe Kelly's Fight Club in this video. You rock GBay
Always nice to see you posting
Another well made and informative documentary! Keep it up, man!
Thanks for another great video gbay! love these so much!
Darn... This documentary is so well made, that I really started to begin liking the team, without even really knowing them.
Thanks for the video Gbay!
0:24 T1 is just built different. Even constructed alternatively, one could say.
Assembled uniquely, if you will.
Congregated in a unique fashion, perhaps?
Wonderful documentary, Gbay!
Just started the vid. Can't wait to see how this fight goes.
I’m liking the type of content you have been doing lately, keep it up !
Good videos mate. Keep up the good work!
Hi Gbay, great video. I have been watching your videos since I started playing league in season 5 and enjoyed all the content you have put out. Have you ever considered doing some sort of documentary on my favorite league team, origen? There dominance in the EU bracket followed by an near loss for fourth place to the world champions then almost immediate “disbanding” would be an interesting story
the ad timing on this video was so perfect that i actually appreciated it, felt like i was watching TV
that picture of the kelly fight brings back memories. I was there. Great video gbay love you man keep it up
Great job gbay! This was a very interesting video, keep up the good work
Thanks man I really appreciate that! I hope you guys continue enjoying the videos
Oh, man, I miss Guardsman Bob so much...! I loved watching his stream.
Noticed you got verified lately, congrats!! You deserve it because of all of the amazing quality content you give us. Cheers!
Great work as always Gbae
As far as I remember MoMa left to live with his girlfriend and continue college there was some article where he said he'd rther live with her than with sweaty guys in a house or smth
Good for him lmao
Fantastic. I remember seeing aAa during events all the time. I had always wondered where they disappeared to.
love this videos, keep it up!
I really like your stories bro
Holy shit that segment on Guardsman Bob unlocked a bunch of early league memories I had forgotten all about
We all miss him
great doc, all the love from Brazil.
Man, I used to watch Guardsman Bob all the time way back when. He was such a chill guy
Dude your videos are amazing
Who had a massive sad sigh when he showed the title and it said "aAa"
It still hurts man
DUUUUDE GUARDSMAN BOB. Holy shit I do not say this a lot but these documentaries are really fucking well done and so nostalgic and informative. Every video a find a new legend from early league, it's so awesome. Keep it up
Brings new meaning to the words 1v1 me irl.
Wait - what did those words mean to you before? XD
@@benverzijlbergen2968 Playing rock paper scissors ofcourse!
@@Daijinthetripod Or some insult-swordfighting, perhaps? 🤣
Yeah, pretty stupid comment. Didn't even think, before he wrote it.
Don't be scared Bowlcut Doublelift's not real.
Bowlcut Doublelift : 8:40
Lmfaoo
Always wanted a bit of a look into aAa, all i ever knew was the Season 1 worlds game from them. Crazy they had such a good team.
Love these documentaries, Gbay. Thanks for your work.
Nice docu, Gboy ^.^
12 minutes.... well that’s the fastest record I’ve had so far. Wish me luck next time Gbay upload. In all seriousness these documentaries really help give us so much lore back to the ancient days of LoL. Keep up the good work!
Don't feel bad, man. There are expensive wines and fine cheeses that aren't my thing either. Keep trying!
@Gbay99 This is an extremely well-made video. That's all.
....
The clips&infographics are fitting, and they're to be expected..
However, the3 overall presentation, background music, and your narrative style are all exactly on-point. I never cared about the competetive LoL scene beyond watching Worlds with friends, I only started playing it in late 2013, and I haven't even played the game for a couple of years now, but your delivery of the story really held my attention from the start right through to the end. Excellent editing - thoughI kinda also miss your gameplay vids too.
If you get tired of League, you definitely have a skill for biographical narration :)
Gbay you're appreciated and loved.
Awesome to see this
Omg favorite youtube channel 🔥🔥🔥
Great doc as always dad I got this one in notifications this time
WHOOOO NEW GBAY VIDEO!!!!!
As a french speaking person who followed the french scene at that time. Thank you for bringing back those memories
i really wanted an on-stage fight between teams
Also, Gbay I'm so happy you're back making video's regularly. Especially these types of videos, you're such a tremendous story teller and these docs are so entertaining
There may be a slight delay in a few releases these next 2 weeks cause of the holidays but I'm also really happy to be back to a schedule! Gonna try to keep going weekly with my vids as long as I can!
@@gbay99 You take as much time as you need man, we're all here for the ride. As someone trying to take a shot as a streamer/youtuber I know it's hard to put these videos out all the time. I don't know how you do it, especially with all this research needed
@@gbay99 gbay tell me bro whats that fuckinf beautiful mastermind soundtrack in the beginning of the video
Guardsman Bob! That is a blast from the past.
as always, good shit
I didnt get notified again.....but now i just have the habit of looking at gbays channel every couple days.....youtube really can drop the ball sometimes :(.
dont play lol anymore but its fun to watch videos like this every once a while.
Never knew about sOAZ early teams what a legend ❤
Love the Amir Garret at the start.
Last picture is cursed and blessed at the same time.
Great documentary gbay its pretty sad that in the end a team with a great future just didnt work and banish from the competitive scene
What is that picture at the end? xD
Literally came to the comment section hoping someone was wondering the same thing.
@@MBlockout yeah i came into the comments section too
Same lol
Wuhuh 25min of Gbay!
pog, a new gbay video
The face of yellowstar on the last photo is glorious
I love your videos ❤️
When you started talking about rage in Esports, I thought this would be about Vasiili lmao
Great video
Old league looks so different and I actually love it
Just realized homeboy had merch, I need it
Man, seeing xPeke, Mellisan, Shushei and LaMia brings a tear to my eye :')
1:17 HOLY CRAP! THAT'S what happened to this squad? I remember seeing them dominate for awhile and then never heard about them again. Now to finish the video. :P
Hello, french here, one detail that have to be mention when you talk about aAa/[M] is that one is that aAa is not a compagny, it's a non profit association.
Millenium always had far more money so that make aAa LCS qualification very cool in my eyes. Kinda David vs Golliath.
Will always remeber the article about the qualification where there is a picture of aAa manager opening abottle of champagne while backward there was a monitor with millenium site.
Yes aAa is a small org but a human one, and that what human does: laugh ,rage, smile, cry and sometime ... Fight.
great job
07:16 “2nd Place was a pretty impressive result”
Me: yea, 4 team competitors 😂
BOB! MA MAN my early league idol
That last picture, lol.
i love how the first guy the show is Tyler1
Holy shit, guardsman bob, used to watch the dude a lot, long time ago...
Linak is the in-between version of Goob and Bowlerhat guy from Meet the Robinsons.
Linak be looking like the health inspector from Ratatouille
Man, I’ve been playing league for almost 10 years.
Sometimes when words dont work its good to get physical it can relief a lot of tension as long as no one gets hurt to bad. Real men don’t fight to win but to get a point across
Wow, you should be a peace negotiator in a warzone.
Linak sounds like a fun guy
Big csgo fan here, I do not recognize any of those french cs players except Major, who I was surprised to see there lol
7:35 look ocelote in background with the girl infront hahahahah
Hey Gbay! Hope you're doing well man.
its not just because players are behind monitors that keeps fights from happening, its that most esports players are not physically dominate so fighting isnt something that they are going to be better than someone else at
There’s a very fun pattern with french teams in any esport, it’s that they’re good at what they’re doing but their ego just can’t be bothered to work with other people, i can’t count the multiple team changes and drama that occured just in french cs lmao
Love me another gbay video
Can you do the fnc story and how they changed esports in early lol i mean the worlds then season 3, 4 , 5 and the domination of the old kings of europe
Hi gbay, could u make a documentary on the WCG pls
