Please make yuumi Dead for 1 month will be good idea
She is already dead unless a support will decide to grief the shit out of your match.
Who the hell complains about Yuumi in 2024?
@@SirDubbs Those who remember her but yeah, champ is pretty much gone. For now it is a meme.
@@draugr121 Yea. I assume the only people still complaining about her are hard-stuck Irons and Bronzes 😂. Yuumi is basically free LP in Diamond to GM
@@SirDubbsif games get to late game she can make a carry quite difficult to kill.
She's just a terribly designed champion and needs to be removed overall.
They changed the lore so many times I can never tell if people are referring to the old lore or the old old lore.
Explain it please what is old old lore?
I gave up on following lore, now they have Arcane which is something pulled completely out of their ass.
The amount of times I've referred to a champion's lore just to find out it isn't considered their lore any more is incredible
@@mrcat3532I'm assuming this is what he means by old old lore:
The ministry of war are a highly advanced magical organization who can contact "summoners", powerful beings from outside of runeterra. They decide to host a tournament (I think), the league of legends where denizens of runeterra may offer control of their body to a summoner, with the grand prize being any one wish. Now, while many characters are simply recruited to do this in their free time, some like Cho Gath are imprisoned against their will by the ministry for the good of the world. This along with the fact that the ministry can revive those who die on summoners rift, means that every league game you play is canon to the lore.
Some fun things about this:
Every champion had lore that explained why they came, some even explicitly stating their wishes
Jax was considered too powerful and given a lamp post as a handicap (retconned to be the magical wizard lamp of blah blah blah)
Some champions did and still do talk to their summoner, like veigar and brand "You can't contain me summoner!"
And now the bad thing:
How do you write massive conflict in a world where there is a peace-loving, magical, super organization that can easily trap Cho Gath the WORLD EATER and force him to fight to the death for their amusement before reviving him so he can do it again? You can't. I believe there were a few good stories like shyv and j4 going to slay shyvs father, but there was a ceiling to how much of an effect on the world a story could have, otherwise Jesus h wizard Christ would show up and delete the problem or turn it into a plaything.
So all in all, a good retcon though it does ruin a few things that were written around the old world specifically Jax and his stupid wizard lantern that I hate
I know I first played in like 2012 and took a few years off in the middle.
Seeing lore changes got so confusing no champion did x not y
By far the best rework event. God I miss those days
Gotta thank Tencent for 10000 season passes a year, no new fun gamemodes and 500$ skins.

Gangplank didn't just storm the workshop of Sarah Fortune's parents. He commissioned Sarah's parents to make new pistols for him, then came by and demanded they give the pistols to him for free since it would be an honor for him to wield them. They refused, he warned them that was going to have consequences, and he walked out without the guns. At the time, Gangplank was something of a defacto ruler of Bilgewater and respected as a pirate to whom you only willingly did business with if you either wanted to pay tribute, or you could stop him taking what he wanted, so this behavior wasn't unexpected. Perhaps some would say that accepting the contract to make the pistols was naïve.
In any case, Gangplank came back later after giving the parents some time to reconsider, which is a fairly standard affair in those sorts of shakedowns (leaving the victim to get nervous, or for their family/friends to plead with them to just pay so they'll be safe). When they hadn't submit to his attempt to claim the guns, he killed them, and as more of a token gesture he shot their daughter, too.
Sarah Fortune knew where the guns he commissioned were hidden, so she claimed them for herself and swore to kill Gangplank with them.
To further complicate the story, her parents were utterly idiotic in this situation, and I don't mean because they accepted the commission. The Fortunes had the potential to just give him the guns and brag that Gangplank used their weapons (something Gangplank was offering to them as 'payment' so he wouldn't mind). It is historically considered a far higher payment for somebody of his station to allow you to market your goods as being the ones they use than to receive a normal trade of currency, with the public response even going so far as to have made entire markets out of certain flowers or vegetables that spanned continents. Blacksmiths in the past would happily forge weapons for rulers at no cost and offer them to the rulers at the off-chance they'd wear them for one campaign, and usually not even have them wielded. Just having the weapon accepted was a privilege.
You have to understand that with how this actually works in the real world, to have somebody of his status actually walk around with your weapons would have set Sarah's parents up for a life of wealth and prestige. Unfortunately, her parents were stupid.

I mean it's still considered normal, famous music companies send musicians free gear in the HOPES that they will use it and be seen doing so, and that's not even a sponsorship where in exchange for payment they HAVE to use it (and be seen doing so), no it's literally just free gear showing up at their doorstep, they could literally take it to the pawnshop if they feel like it. Similar deal for professional gamers, athletes, and other celebrities. Only difference for GP is he literally murders you if you don't agree for him to be a 'sponsor' for your pistols instead of taking you to court.
As Someone who casually played this BACK WHEN THIS HAPPEN, Its was a extremely interesting and really fun concept for Riot to do, Just the Concept of "This Champ is now Gone because the Lore killed him." Was insane and ive always been hyped for something to this scale to happen again (just not completely disabling them, like Oh Rework is happeneing because this champ just died in lore or a new champ was introduced and changed this champ) But Riots creativity and limit testing of their idea's truely will never be this level again.
I remember this, it was so fun, from the lore on the League website which was written so good, and Gangplank "dying" in the lore which caused him to be disabled... Good times man.
Wicked should've eaten some oranges and be K.

He did. It was just that his delivery of citrus was delayed for a week due to Miss Fortune's meddling.
I thought it was a great event, people can learn to live without 1 champion for 1 week.
No we cannot. You also don’t have the right to say that. If it were a character you loved you wouldn’t accept it
Yeah, definitely the best - and it was an amazing setup and story, disabling GP made it so immersive.
Tell me you're bronze without telling me you're bronze
@@AR15andGOD Yes we can. It's a fictional videogame character. Look for other things to worry about in your life

Rito should, as a fun little detail, remove Yasuo, Yummi and Zed from game.
Technically, these are good chempions. Especially, what's wrong with Zed, kekw? But people have poisoned them. Both the players themselves and others.
@@ovento7438Yasuo and Zed are fine but you did not just say Yuumi is a good champion
@@snozer6966 Meee, not as bad a champion as they whine about him. Yes, this is a champion for those with paws, but there you also need to get off, actively heal your allies, shoot-hit, put wards. A good Yuumi in a pleasant matchup is fine. AD Yuumi top is fun as HELL. AP Yuumi mid is a good challenge. But maybe this champ has no place in league. But it has, and this is a cat. And the cats are fu**ing cute.
@@ovento7438based
7:00 That also means that they went out of their way to make a free skin compatible with two iterations of the champions in VFX and SFX, knowing full well that the older kit's skin version would only be out for 1 week. They truly were a different bunch from the guys that charge $500 for a single skin
It's a little sad to see Riot peaked with their story telling and interaction with their world so long ago.
As much of the controversy there was in League around the same time in Season 5 (The juggernaut rework and Gangplank rework coming out right before worlds with basically all of them being overpowered with no time to adjust) Bilgewater was the coolest event.
But I wonder, is League just too big now to do anything on that scale ever again? They've got so much to do now with the battle pass thing, the long champion designing process, pro play etc etc.
What are you talking about, they did the Ruination event! Oh...wait...
Depends whether you mean in-game or not. Because in-game? Probably very limited in regards to actual main universe lore.
Out of game is still fine, even ruination was pretty good outside of the game. Book was very good.
We can't go back. Riot won't let us.
I honestly love when games have the guts to make event changes like the (temporary) removal of champs for the added engagement, it's a very strong stance but one that gets me more into a game's events, the ongoing development and fleshing-out of a given world.
I think Arrowhead's Helldivers 2 is the most recent example that comes to mind, and despite the matters of retention and the longer timescale of the Galactic War they face I think it's a great example of how great live service games can be, when you have less of a conflict of interests and an organization willing to take the risks necessary for those interesting event choices
As someone who doesn't care even the the tiniest amount about competitive play, I do wish Riot would do more stuff like this. It doesn't even have to involve removing a champion ('cause I mean that's already been done anyway) but just give us cool backstory and game modes. It was fun. I remember being really excited and really enjoying it.
This was back when League was really good. But original Gangplank with the visual update was the best imo.
Original gp with crit runes was wild
7:29 i didn't realise that arena items come from gangplank death event, started playing roughly a year later so never had a chance to see this before
I remember that event. They made a rework of the skin, they asked players a question and then Gangplank was dead. Then, days later... Boom! He revived and we got that last skin as free, with a new one as his default. Absolutely genius.
As someone who started playing less than a year ago, I appreciate videos going over the games previous states
I still to this day wish they added typhoon claws to the main game
god i miss that event it have been 9 years......
7:28 Dead Man's Plate is in the normal game
But also:
Lost Chapter
Rite of Ruin
Staff of Flowing Water
And some others are Arena and TFT items:
Flesheater (Arena)
Trickster's Glass (TFT)
I think Swindler's Orb icon is also being used for Oblivion Orb
And Pox Arcana icon was the old Morellonomicon icon, if I remember correctly
I lived the event. Riot does have a great way of breaking the stale bread that most long running titles become by doing events like this.
I loved. Burning Tide's enjoyed having gp as the in game announcer
There is a reason the bilge water event in 2015 was the greatest of all time, to this day no event came close
It was one of the coolest events riot ever did. The theme that ocompanied it is epic.
It's the best event and overall best thing Riot has ever done and it isn't close. While I miss being able to play GP in every role and be viable (okay, you can still technically do that, it's just not as good as Old GP), the lore and rework is truly awesome. He was one of, if not THE, first champ with a minigame attached to his kit (barrels) and I still think his is done the best.
This event was soooo coool, I remember the summer playing this event, it was magical af, and the excitment to play the game each morning brings some serious nostalgia to my memories
I was new to league when bilgewater event came and I had a blast playing black market brawlers even I had no clue what I was doing! I fell in love with gp announcer. I hope to see more similar events
1:40 I still consider thresh to be a relatively new champion
I'll be straight up honest with yall, I would not be playing League right now if it weren't for that event. I was brand new to League, and that event dropped. I neither watched nor cared about competitive at that time, but yes if I had I would've thought that decision was moronic and ridiculous, but the event itself was so cool that it's the main reason I'm playing League right now, and the game mode itself was a really fun twist on the core game.
The Battle over Brigewater event if one of 4 events i Still talk about to new players. the other three are Ascension, King Poro, and DOOM BOTS and sadly only King Poro is really brought back. all 4 was super fun and all 4 are like 9+ years old now.
I remember when Jhin came out they changed the 4 champion of his kills. It was kinda cool too.
as a casual who constantly takes years of breaks from the game i think competitve play should be its own beast and people should be able to train on whatever is going to be in the game long term. that said i think disabling a character is pretty impactful for an event but even as a casual i would hate to log in to the game and find my own champ just gone. people dodge ques for less so i dont think its a great idea to try and force the issue like that
There's no reason for tencent to put any effort into the game when it already prints money like crazy.
Why would they put any effort ? They're literally not the ones making the game.
I think they should do this every time they rework a champion. Make an event abt their lore, do something similar giving a lore reason for the rework, then delete the champion in game for a week but ONLY for quick play and norm draft and aram, not competitive or ranked
When Riot was actually good..
2015 GP was insaneeee
Remember this event. GP being dead and disabled for a week except for one server.
Can't remember which server, but GP was still kept on so players can still play him during the event.
They did something a little different that still honored the event and instead disabled all skins even the default skin except for the dead ghost skin that he had.
I have the crazy theory that they will pull of something similar with Arcane 2.
My reasoning behind that is that they just announced the new executive producer in charge of Arcane is the guy responsible for this event. That might give it a chance, but honestly what made me think it's possible is that the way he says it on the video alongside the S2 teaser, sounds a bit like he's foreshadowing something coming soon.
Maybe Jayce and Viktor get disabled for a full week or something
I remember the Bilgwater event, I never played too much LoL but that was a damn good time :D
Your videos are really cool! I'm so glad I found your channel, keep up the good work!
8.50 Oh no.
i HAVE PTSD FROM RUNEBLADE
"pro" scene has been the death of so many good games of late. What's more ridiculous, is "pro players" complaining about a new character partaking in a tournament, instead of adapting and delivering on bringing actual entertainment for once. Of course Riot bowed to the demands of the few instead of the community positive reaction. It's all so tiresome...
I wish events in League continued bringing the lore into the client/missions.
Truely changing parts of the client or parts of the game to show something big is happening.
Despite all the inconsistancies and terrible writing, the Ruination event was the only event with the potential to be better than the Burning Tides.
Sadly we all know that didn't end up happening, but I hope events in the upcoming years will bring more baseline lore for people to perhaps get invested in the story of the game.
The skinline events are usually fine. Spirit Blossom and Soul Fighter were neat because they brought something new to the table, even though the main event were 10 new skins, instead of passionate writers and designers trying to tell a new story for fans of the game.
I enjoyed this video bro nice work
to gang and plank the way plankgang gangplanks is epic thank u for lore!!
Tf😂☠️
Whenever they rework a champion a bunch, they should so some kind of lore drop, so it wouldnt just feel like a buff or nerf
If they would have just kept him disabled for ESports reasons till everybody got the chance to understand the new GP, it would have ben fine. The lore + Event was epic shit and i would like more like that,.. maybe not sooo overpowered thou.
The $500 skin got me 😂😂😂😂
It was so much better back then.
some months after my pc went kaputt i sold my account to a friend. nowadays i regret that, since im playing again and lost all those icons and skins from events, especially the bilgewater event.
Why did you delete your jungle guide :(
Rework to unrecognisable… Poppy…
Dam… 2015. I feel like this was more recent lol 😂. I’ve been playing lol for to long
yeah agreed - i had to do a triple take on the date
I *played* that Bilgewater event, and I love being reminded that fucking FIZZ wasn't included, but thank goodness we got a sneak peak of "Rafen." >_>
i guess my NDA is expired lol, used to work in player support and the scale of this event was enormous that it even affected the ticket support teams.
We had to make sure to keep all things related to the twist reveal was kept secret and that a free new model and for Gangplank was in store. we knew weeks before the event was live because we had to prep our replies for the incoming tickets that would come pouring in about the champion being disabled, what's gonna happen etc.
We tried to keep it fun and light, giving replies that hinted at a surprise. I remember that Riot at the time had enough trust in everyone not to spoil things. and we didn't, no leaks from any teams came out. Riot was really awesome and they peaked during this time, they had just done the new twisted treeline and had a shadow isles themed event around it, over all it was just a ton of fun stuff they were cooking up for everyone for free. It doesn't feel like that anymore.
2015 was yesterday what you talkin bout
I never heared of the Game mode but i loved everything else about the event
2:09 why tf does miss fortune have hearts coming out of her middle parts
As the old man that I am now, I remember this fondly.
I still feel like they deleted the old swain as well, there’s pretty much nothing left of the old dot mage🙃, my favourite champion of all time, rest in peace my friend.
I mean yes the old ultimate was a bit op and maybe the playstyle wasn’t the healthiest for the game, but it was the most fun champ they ever created, pls bring him back😔
Wait, a messed up leg and he told the doctor to just cut it off? Did they take the old swain lore where he was also said to not even flinch/respond to them removing it either(without any painkillers).
I still have the skin, it was a good event. But I still miss Gp one shot build
People really do forget that Jhin killed 4 champions as well...
havent played when GP lore was but i miss the old Aatrox i loved playing him ap :c
I was a gang plank main at time of rework, I actually didn't care for the new kit as much even though it's objectively better it just didn't suit me. It was a cool time though, and the burning tides community collab still exists on TH-cam from the event, back when rito did alot of community stuff.
Bilgewater was one of the best events. I wish Ruination would've been that scale.
Not disabling GP in pro was poopoo tho
The fact that there's no way to bring the GP announcer back makes me cry everyday
you can actually if u type /tot.gpannouncerpack.vl in chat.
R.I.P Urf Dolphin 🙏🏻
this was like a month ago remember it like it was yesterday
Ngl theres something kinda funny and cute how riot kept the he's dead bit
Player: "Why is gangplank disabled can I play him later?"
Riot: "H-he's gone... *starts crying*"
This guy forgetting about the Jhin pre-release where they 'killed' Garen, Ryze, Sona and a fourth champ I can't remember off the top of my head.
They weren't deactivated/there was no impact on the game itself
@@myth-leagueoflegends They were deactivated, you couldn't pick them for close to a week maybe longer.
@@OnlyGettyi'm pretty sure that's not true but i could je mistaken
I recall this event!.... it was so good!...
I mean they killed Swain with the rework. However they are trying to revive him now with the new midscope
I still talk about bilgewater aram because it had bans and I wish they gave regular aram bans
evelynn, galio trundle as well
They also killed Viego in Wild Rift a couple weeks ago
what if they killed ahri after the ongoing event that people have spent 500 dollars for the new skin?
We need to start purging champions🗣️🗣️🗣️
It was the MOST EPIC EVENT EVER! Great, great, great event
Who is rafen noted at 4 mins 9 sec on the staring part of the act 2
weren't garen and lux disabled for a while during jhin's release?
02:08 okay I'm turning it off, they really did kill MF
I really think riot will kill off league if they keep just focusing on pro play. Its literally the most boring aspect of the game and dictates how the rest have to play esentially and tbh i really dont care if a pro player doesnt get enough time to practice one champ, pick another one. They should do more events like these not because they make money but more for player retention and getting new players. and also, most importantly, bc it keeps the game fun. The way theyve been making events recently is so milktoast ass boring its actually depressing.
Omg i remember this event😊 i love to See is again
you forget that jhin killed 4 champions and i cant even play them
they were still available in-game to play, they werent disabled as part of the event like gp was. it was still cool though
back when events were actually cool and fun and they actually tried beyond just to make money
your accent is familar are you from NL by chance?
It was a really cool idea that kinda sucks for a minority of people. I wasn't affected as I wasn't a big GP player back then, but if you were a gp otp you were not playing ranked for that time. Lol
OG GP with Crit Runes
They should do that to Yummi and all inting champs when not used by a pro player.
And Shaco, so all the PinkWards bronze wannabes can stop ruining matches.
You forgot about Evelyn
write out all the champs and make norse gods......oh wait this is smite
Nah they killed Pantheon lorewise and they kiled Mordekaiser allwise
It wasn't as bad of a decision, they just shouldve swapped to the version people had seen
What about Urf the manatee?
why delete your jungle guides man?
skill issue for wickd btw - sincerely, from a bronze player
I miss when the people working on league gave a fuck about it
1:03 lmao
I loved the bilgewater event
