I really don't understand why Riot keeps ignoring the modern champion model issue in League Classic.

The whole point of Classic is to relive the original game. The old gameplay, old map, old UI, and old champion models all go hand in hand.

At this point, if Riot isn't going to add a simple client-side toggle, I hope the community does. League has always had talented modders, and a client-side program that swaps modern models for the original ones would give people the authentic Classic experience without affecting gameplay or giving any competitive advantage.

I just want League Classic to actually look like League Classic. Is that really too much to ask?

I genuinely don't understand this decision.

League Classic is supposed to be about experiencing old League. So why are the modern champion models the default for a bunch of champions? If I'm queuing up for Classic, I expect to see the classic versions.

Even worse, Riot wants us to pay or grind to unlock the original classic default models. Let that sink in. You have to unlock the default skins that originally shipped with these champions in a mode that's literally built around nostalgia.

It's completely backwards.

If the goal is authenticity, the classic models should be the default, period. If someone prefers the newer models, make those the optional unlocks. Instead, Riot did the exact opposite and put the authentic experience behind a paywall or progression system.

It feels like they missed the entire point of League Classic.

The classic skins aren't premium cosmetics. They're the game's original identity.

This is one of those decisions that makes you wonder if anyone making it actually understands why people wanted League Classic in the first place.

Thanks for listening to my concerns. I can only hope they will listen to feedback.

Hey everyone, I'm growing broccoli sprouts and just started researching seed sanitation. I've heard using distilled white vinegar is bad for germination rates, and that the hydrogen peroxide method is better.

Do most of you actually sanitize your seeds, or do you just rinse and go? I've been reading about Salmonella and E. coli outbreaks from sprouts, and now I'm kinda paranoid.

For those who sanitize: do you use the 3% hydrogen peroxide method? Do you heat it or just room temp? Anyone notice it affecting germination rates?
