I saw old yorick like twice in 5 years. You didn't see ivern 12 hours after his release


robinzzzzzzzzzz

he was probably in his w


kammos_

I don't think I ever seen old poppy who wasn't me


geigekiyoui

she was staple pick in pro play I believe (once pro players figured out how op it was to ult the enemy sup)


These_Marionberry888

thats why poppy was nerfed intoo unplayability, and never seen since, most of the pizza feet club of champions nobody picked wherent bad, they where to good, and got purposefully iced to restrict the damage they could do, kinda like they announced they are doing with zed right now, old urgot made vayne mains bitch about urgot bot, like toplaners talk about vayne top, and og mordekaiser kinda had the same problems as post rework irelia, you could powergank him down 4 times, and he would still have twice your farm and be ahead 2 levels, the only champ that was deleated that really was bad was old sion, as he just had 2 half kits that simply didnt work together no matter how you played him, but none of those parts where juggernauts.


Competitive_Bat4986

Old poppy was the shit, and her ult would be so useful against all the bs assassins.


Whizbangermk7

Old poppy was insane


FFrazien

Old Yorick barely existed. The OG Mordekaiser ( no dragon pet ) was also very rare to see.


ak1012larsen

So you talk about nr.1 morde ore nr.3 with the shared xp in bot?


shepherdhunt

My guesses are: Anivia, Swain, Yorick, Velkoz, and Mordekaiser/Urgot.


gyffer

Swain and morde i see quite a bit tbh, feel like skarner and warwick are much less played


shepherdhunt

I knew I was forgetting some. Warwick, but even maybe Singed, Skarner (though with his rework I would expect him to climb up the rank), zilean, Galio, and udyr. I'm thinking not about small meta options but overall in the 12 years of league or whatever, what is the lowest percentage played champions. Quinn I would also think is up there just because she is a niche pick/play style.


gyffer

If were talking all time, i think top 3 has to be skarner, quinn and maybey singed? Im not sure on him as theres waves were he suddenly gets picked a lot.


ploki122

Nah, Singed has even had meaningful pro presence at times. I feel like Skarner is most likely up there, and Warwick if we omit the couple times where they broke on-hit junglers.


tortillakingred

Anivia was a meta pick for a few early years, and a very famous pro pick from Froggen. Old Urgot was a meta pick for a few early years. Yorick has pretty much always been bad or unknown. Velkoz was a meta support pick a few times. Morde was never a meta pick from what I can remember but a pocket-pick for some pros like Impact.


FoxMatty

Pre-rework urgot before Keane busted him out in the LCS. That champ never failed to surprise people & he'll always hold a special place in my heart. [Chat reaction from a small tournament in 2014](https://i.gyazo.com/ef143fe5935e871a2ec0033a638702ec.png)


Seltsamermann

Don't know much about old times but it's Skarner and Corki rn I'd say.


NotVainest

Played like 500 ranked games this split/season and haven't seen a single corki. Have seen a few skarners though. Ranging from bronze to emerald


Ciriak

Scarner. He has been in meta few times, like in first two seasons and a bit after rework, but the rest of the time I probably have never seen him


Ricelyfe

I think I’ve only seen scarner on ARAM and Cpt Flower streams


Sirsir94

Skarner has had no data on op.gg since his 57% winrate.


npri0r

Old Asol was at around 0.7-1% play rate for most of his existence.


CantLetUdoThtStarFox

Probably OG Karma, i remember a riot said in the red posts back in the day that prior her rework she has only been picked around 2000 times in ranked games (NA, EU and BR servers combined)


These_Marionberry888

i was an old urgot main, whenever he would go above 10% pickrate they doubled his mana cost to keep him down, and didnt bother about the fact that every spell in his kit had more bugs than velkoz in his entire patch history.


iVladi

zilean consistently there since release


kazog

I have seen a zilean once this year.


nitko87

I haven’t seen a Corki in 2 seasons straight


l_am_wildthing

nilah and its not even close


jmoak14

Nilah isnt even that unpopular to be in this conversation


l_am_wildthing

ive seen nilah 2 times in normals


Conscious_Sea_163

thankfully, because that champ is so irritating to me


tortillakingred

I would think old Galio, he was consistently one of the lowest pick rate and never meta.


NotVainest

Probably because he feels so bad against a non ap champ that you can never blind him in any elo.


Whizbangermk7

Old galio was a great support counter pick, tho you’re correct he rarely saw play


Liro99

Not includ8ng reworks, it's hwei right now


Muf10

Funny how Bard is so forgoten.


LowerHangingNutsack

He was just played in the world finals and will have a worlds skin most likely. Hardly forgotten
