At the tail end of this podcast, Jagex thinks about the title.

This would be AWESOME to see, Mr. Miller! You love the game, advertised with Settled and others, and you're local so it would be fairly easy!

Perhaps hit them up on Dragon Slayer III? Adapt One of a Kind from RS3 with Mr. Mordaut? Something else entirely?

Something to think about! Definitely worth pulling this thread!

HELLO CHAT

So Classic's been out a week, and it's AMAZING. This is the real game; an order of magnitude more playable and less stressful than the zoomermaxxing ADHD oneshot permaroam ragemaxxing slop of retail.

We need votes to save Shyvana, and getting them is very easy!

There are two one-time missions to play VS AI and the silly ARAM with old items mode they made. These get you to level 3 and unlock masteries. You don't want to be playing humans with the dogwater starter tree.

AI counts as your first win of the day too, which is another chunk of XP. Then go for the "play 3 different champions" weekly quest. This will get you level 5 and your first vote. You can use AI games for this too, which only take 12-15 minutes to close out.

That means it only takes about 1-2 hours to get one vote. Even if you have no interest in classic without Shyvana, PLEASE do this much on all of your accounts.

From there, rotate playing on your accounts to feed them the first win of the day bonus and tick off the 3 and 6 champ weeklies. Power 2 is at level 15, which doesn't take that long, power 3 is picked up in the pass at about the same time. Power 4, level 25, takes longer. Power 5 you have to pay 10 bucks for. Fuck that. Slimy AF.

The meta for ballot printing is obviously to make infinite accounts and get them to power 1. However, that's a massive pain and I do like actually playing the game, so I'll be rotating wins on 5 accounts at a time up to 25, then making more.

My plan is to get at least 100 power, which means 25 accounts. I voted for the fucking dework twice against my better judgment and I regret the shit out of it. Offsetting that by a factor of 50 will absolve me, and I'll just keep going until she's in. I'm about to have a LOT of smurfs!

SERVICE GUARANTEES SHYVANA!

Gone for 15 minutes, team held game stable

Came back bought GP10 slammed down a million wards and we still won

On retail it's instant ff because zoomermaxxing ADHD slop pro player KDA 200 year systems

God I love classic, never going back

I can lock in, take a piss, and be back before the waves crash! Holy shit!

Level 1 fiestas! Hook and binding invades! Blitzcrank flip entire game level 1! Big part of game's culture gone! Why??

Gotta leash the jungler! No mad dash into side bushes with 500 mph homeguards or risk instantly losing the lane!

I hope the modern slop team is watching and reverts some of their ADHD nonsense...

SERVICE GUARANTEES SHYVANA

UPDATE: Max voting weight without paying for pass is 4

Not a huge deal, just make another account and do it again, but pay for say is pretty slimy

This would be the coolest thing Riot's done in 10 years.

Absolute cinema.

A lot of these old orgs could probably put together some players on a budget like the good old days and we could get TSM vs CLG in 2026!

Let's make it happen, Pony!

Classic is the only hope

If we're drawing the line at Yasuo for now, that still puts us at 60/116 champions who were in the game at that time. That's a LONG list, and everyone deserves to be there. If Riot's going for every 2 weeks to feel like the good old days, that's TWO YEARS. Surely we're getting 2 or 3 per patch, right?

That kind of a line warrants putting some real work in to jump to the front. Emizery just ruined my Shyvana and I want to do everything possible to get her back ASAP. If the council (that's the name right?) is going to matter here, I intend to grind all of my accounts to max voting weight and maybe even make some more. If not and release order is purely Riot determined, or if they want to release chronologically, one's enough, and that's a lot of time, so I thought I'd ask.

I'd guess it will end up being a mix of both?

This company is so cooked it's crazy, the toxic positivity is completely out of control and nobody is allowed to admit reality or risk being Mortdogged.

A champ being completely rejected like this is NOT a success, buddy. That means there are real problems that need fixing, and like Mel, Emizery's newest creation will need a year of coping before real W changes that let people actually play him.

God, I hate being lied to, he really thinks we're stupid...

GIVE HER BACK

Spyx did such a good job that I'm coming back for more!

Buuut I've only got one concept I really want and its 3 for 30, so let's give you guys a say!

Highest 2 upvoted ideas will get made, one per post please!

https://preview.redd.it/iv2p15une1ch1.png?width=1001&format=png&auto=webp&s=5850ebe81947b703241d46254c72807ba77905d4

Buffing blue by this much in an age of mage bot is pretty insane. I get that it's whatever if you don't hvae a mana bar, but this is too far.

This champ LOVES haste, 11 is very early, extra 10 will make second cycle much more reliable.

Start fiending for blues next patch, will matter!

Now if only it gave passive rage too...

Found a series of rules that make this infernal game tolerable:

1. No streaming
2. No chat ever
3. No distractions
4. Always dodge Locke, Akali, offrole
5. One session per day, quit after one loss and do literally anything else until turn brain off and on again

Progress is slow obviously but this has been working, I just CANNOT handle more than one 0/15 5 level top gap per day. Only you can prevent losers queue!

HoB gunblade is definitely strong and enjoyable, interested in seeing what others are doing

Would love to watch some replays if anyone's got mid to high diamond/master+, think I saw one madman that did it here. Post your builds and tags!
