Implementing Traditional Champions

i recreated this poll because i felt like people were getting the wrong idea so please read!

With all of these reworks happening i think it would be an amazing idea to let the league of legends community decide if we can add old version of major reworked champs like Karma, Yorick, and Kayle all in its own game mode. Just an idea! i am not saying we should add them to ranked or normal games but in custom games or in its own gamemode. I think people would have a way better experience of league of legends. any ones input on this would really be appreciated. please take note again that i'm trying to keep this away from normal games especially ranked. a seperate game mode or just custom is my goal.

Going to go with "no" on this one. Old champions have several strikes against them:

  • They look awful compared to modern champion design.
  • They were all removed/reworked for a reason.
  • The old code is not still in the game, so the champions would need to be recreated from scratch.
  • Recreating them from scratch requires modelling teams, animators, artists, and programmers who could be working on content for the rest of the game.

Riot already went over this a while ago.

The investment on an engineer and designer level isn't worth it for something that will be enjoyable for a few games tops.

Old champions / Items are gone, accept it and move on.
