Who is the most OP? One Mode to rule them all, One Mode to find them, One Mode to bring them all...

And to whence most OP it binds them! Okay, so bad LOTR intro aside, I have a serious idea for a new game mode. A few weeks ago there was a reddit thread asking players to discuss what they remembered most about the time when they first started playing league. (for those who didn't see the original post/don't browse reddit, it can be found here: http://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/2gjc3l/the_i_remember_when_thread_post_what_you_remember/) This post got me thinking about how awesome it was to play certain champions back in the day--ZAC when his ult basically made him CC immune, WuKong when Black Cleaver passive was not unique, champions like Diana and Yasuo who were insanely good upon release, Xin Xhao when he was known as "Win Nhao" and Irelia before her 1000 rounds of nerfs etc...

So my question to you guys is this: Would anyone be interested in a Featured Game Mode where Riot basically took champions and items and turned them back to how they were upon initial release? (or when they were unanimously considered at their most OP point)

I'm not JUST talking champions here--let's throw back in items like Madred's Bloodrazer, FoN, Heart of Gold, Zhonyas Ring, and Leviathan (Mundo truly go where he pleases). Bring back the OP elixirs like green pot and an Oracles Elixir that lasted until death! Give me true dodge boots and a PD to match. Hell, bring back dodge runes for that mode! I WANT TO SEE HOW WELL A GREEN POT YASUO ALL-IN WORKS AGAINST A JAX RUNNING HIS DODGE PAGE! Give me 13 pot Morde, or 9-pot 2-Ward Kat. Let's see "Win Nhao" fight TF when the TP is on his E. Does Eve with her stealth/stun jungle better than Kha'Zix when he was so strong he was often played as a laner? How about that 5 Sunfire Mobos Twitch or when Jayce could use R to stack his tear for free? Think of how many champions pros like Faker, Hai, and VoyBoy (to name a few) have almost single-handedly gotten nerfed into the ground (Season 2/Early S3 Olaf anyone? That Soraka mid? ZED?)

And don't stop with champions and items! I want my free 15% Magic pen from 9 points in offense; I want my defensive masteries to allow me to laugh at minion "damage". (Were utility masteries ever op?) Don't forget about summoner spells! You promote your minions, I'll fortify my turrets while my allies rally around me. Oh, and remember when clairvoyance gave an 8 minute ward and flash had a range of 900 units but a cooldown of only half of what it is now? (for those wondering, yes, that is a greater distance that Kassadin's ult, riftwalk) Game breaking bugs and exploits aside (dat Zhonya's Jax or 5 man lvl1 promote midlane for the win) let's un-nerf and un-balance everything to see who is truly the most OP champion!
