Gives newer players a chance to experience how different League of Legends used to be simply because of items.

Bringing back some of the "chance" items would also be interesting to see in present League of Legends.

Just an idea.

Leviathan!

Stackable item 3003 ! 2k AP veigar! 2k mana shield blitzcrank!

junglerboy16Apr 15, 20161 votes

Seraph still stacks though, it just takes longer to get more than one.

XeroKimoApr 15, 20161 votes

I meant the AP, + before we didn't have seraph so when you bought a second archangels fully stacked, insta 1k mana!

junglerboy16Apr 16, 20161 votes

Wait, THAT'S how they stacked? That's so beyond stupid I can't believe I missed that part of League.

I want this game mode idea even more now!

RIP 6k crit jayce with sword of the divine.

OyddAWqJ5rApr 15, 20162 votes

That seems a little redundant to build an item that maxes attack speed on a champion that already maxes attack speed. Whateva floats yo boat.

My Waifu VanillaApr 15, 20165 votes

It also gives you the extra 10% damage on those autos so a cheesy build with a lot of AD and an IE+SotD was rather amusing when you could hit W and SotD and Crit people for 1000+ damage 3 times in a row in quick succession and then get your cd semi reset since it would almost guarantee a kill on squishies.

UrPalAlApr 15, 20163 votes

Not to mention back then Jayce's W increased his AD far more than it does even now. Before it was 130% of his AD(that crit), meaning he dealt 325% of his AD with an Auto. You get a sword if divine, IE, and then full AD. My crits averaged 3.2k, it was insane. Sadly Riot noticed how insane it was and needed the damage, now I can barely make it to 2k qq.

Right, but on Summoner's Rift

NautricityApr 15, 20162 votes

It would open more room for a better AP late game combining both items, making it so you would only use 1 slot instead of 2 for 2 primary items, replacing one for another AP item.

Ap damage isn't the problem, it's how they stand no chance against gap closing assassins who are tanky. take a lux for example at full build currently easily around 700 ap. They don't need an all in one item like rabbadons+zhonyas.. plus the cost would be completely insane. Probably the first 4k gold item on the rift at least

NautricityApr 15, 20162 votes

Keep in mind this would be just for a Game mode to have fun on and experiment with old league in the new league, not exactly competitive. I don't think there are many highly competitive URF players out there.

Solari FortuneApr 15, 20163 votes

People will try hard in everything and turn every fun game mode into competitive. it is kinda what ruins URF for me because it not really fun to deal with try hards in a game mode made for goofing around

OyddAWqJ5rApr 15, 20162 votes

Careful Jbels, Riot might have to increase the cost of your thoughts if you keep thinking about affordable AP items.

Yeah, and each team had two, so 50 MR for everyone on the team for free, with a total of 80 MR on each bulwark bearer

What you talking about bro, Talon was the king of BC

ZantumallApr 15, 20161 votes

I didn't mean it was bad on Talon (it was really really good on Talon), just that it was bad for the game. Having every AD champ build 4-5 of the same item every game was pretty dumb. It was fun for two or three games and then it got really boring really fast.

What about a similar mode where you can play a bunch of champions pre rework

Don't forget reverting major reworks ( Gangplank Sion Poppy ) and removing the limit on gold items. People need to experience moneyplank in his true form.

NilokApr 15, 20162 votes

This would also give Riot a lot of good data on item design with such a large item set for future update.

In other words, 10 trillion percent yes.

DarkRitualApr 16, 20161 votes

Dear new players: be glad you don't have to experience these unbalanced op items in everyday play.

It's not good information when "it was op so everyone bought it." Situational items aren't good when the situation is "do you have enough gold for this item?"

I doubt any actual good and useful data would be able to be obtained from this type of game mode.

Besides, we already have a game mode for people who like to abuse unbalanced stuff: URF.

NilokApr 16, 20161 votes

Good data doesn't care if it is op or balanced. It could show how certain champions may benefit from certain effects or build paths in a healthy way, but are no longer avaliable in the game.

Good data can also show what doesn't work if Riot is thinking of bringing back some of item effects.

This gives them a fresh look at old ideas, which can only improve the game in the long run.
