Out with the Old, in with the New

Dear Riot, So this has been on my mind for a while, and I think it's time to share my ideas with you on a new and unique game-mode for league. Introducing "out with the Old, in with the New", a game mode where u bring back all the past versions and reworked versions of champions, dating back to when Master Yi's MasterYi Q used to be highlander, his now ultimate. Of course I do believe it will take a lot of time and may have a few bugs at the start, but I know for a fact that everyone would love to play the old version of champs. However, not just the oldest version of a champ, but all the phases and reworked version of the champion as well. In champion select, the setup would be to choose a champion, then next to the skins selection, there would be an option called "past versions", where players can pick which version or rework of the champion to play ( that is, if that champion has ever been reworked). I'll let you decide what to call each version, maybe put the date of when it was reworked next to each version, followed by the champion name; i.e. July, 2013 skarner Skarner , then put a picture of how the champion looked at that time. For visual effects in game, it can remain the same as the current one, so you don't have to waste too much time, but make sure they have the abilities they had at that time.

Anyways, thank you for reading, and I would really love it if you put it to consideration, and I hope you have a good one! :)

OH! one more thing. This does not include small changes to champions such as blitzcrank's small change in this patch "in my sights : now pulls enemies 75 units in front of blitzcrank rather than directly on top of him. Just do the LATEST version of the CURRENT champion, and the OLDEST version of the previous kinds of champions. I think this saves a LOT of time.

This would require them to either keep backups of outdated champ builds (unlikely) or re-work all champs into their old versions from scratch (long and tedious). Either way, I'm not so sure how keen Riot staff would be on putting that much effort into a single alternate game mode.
