THE OLD MERCH STORE HAS BEEN REBOOTED! I'd rather sell merch than sellout to sponsors if I can so come get your One trick/Irelia one trick shirts, as well as the good ol' boosted animal shirt from back in the day! teespring.com/stores/gbay99

my mans traveled to korea just to get hardstuck in diamond again

gbay: I traveled to Korea just to ask kiin how to play Irelia kiin: just Q to minions man

10:42 "...Not to enter korea unless absolutely necessary." * shifts to Irelia splash art * " *THIS* was absolutely necessary." I loved this part.

This is literally an anime plot, someone wants to become the strongest and travels to a legendary land to train under a legendary sensei

Me: Oh look Gbay is gonna do a simple interview Gbay: Now, this is the story all about how my life got flipped-turned upside down...

>"I got on a plane to South Korea in search of answers" >Can't tell if this a Nick Robinson reference or not

Can we take a moment to appreciate he lost to yummi top :)

Correction, the problem with *new* Irelia is that old players wanted to play her the old way. Its like giving a 60 year old a smart phone and waiting 3 minutes for them to type a sentence with 1 finger

Gbay: *loses to pro players on a champ he doesn’t really play anymore* Gbay: *surprised pikachu face*

6:40 this is cursed.

Imagine flying 13+ hours of flight, spending kinda alot of money, editing this video and recording footage, spending alot of time with the pro's to ask. How do I Irelia? Kiin: Just get minions to low hp (Duuuuh) 10/10

"I own every playable character in this game" *shows that he owns Wukong*

"I tried to be professional, asking him all the regular interview questions." *What are your thoughts on Hashinshin?* A question that every toplaner should be asked xD

5:15 "Her playstyle has been completely reversed" laughs in Aatrox main

Gbay: Yuumi cannot be played without a teammate to bind to, right? Ross and Tilterella: *laughs in Yuumi top and AD Yuumi jungle*

Though many of Gbay's Skills are dubious at best; he holds one title: he is the BEST STORYTELLER IN TOP LANE. :D

This genuinely makes me so happy, old gbay is back!

"I will only main cat champion." Gbay 2020

16:16 "0-3, like a EU vs China grand finals"

The relationship between Gbay and Irelia is like the greatest love story to have ever existed! XD All the highs and lows, the break-ups and the reunions... The drama's insane!

These documentary style videos are the best. They always amp me up to get back to grading ranked. I really enjoy seeing these in my notifications. Keep up the great work!

0-3 PTSD

If happy for you gbay, you’ve had some lows and high throughout KZfaq and this is a definite high. I can’t wait to see one of my favorite content creators climb to the top again!

Damm some of those clips were so fucking clean. I have been watching you for ages now at this point. And its just fun looking what your doing and I will stay around!

Best top laner in the world... TheShy confused noises

Oh yes... Some really high quality Gbay99 content, loving it! Edit: that final line gave me chills

6:19 Did he just quote the American Declaration of Independence to explain why he is hardstuck gold?

I'm happy to hear you've found love in League and Irelia again :D can't wait for more Irelia gameplay and the documentary!

I love these vids so much. They bring me joy and comfort.

1:07 Wow, truer words have never been spoken

This is 100% the most effort I've ever seen go into a league video and I am here for it. Great video!

GOod choice in music, narration, editing and feels. Well done gbay99, i've watched you for over 5 years now and I'll still be watching you for another 5 years to come :P

*Next Video:* How to Play: High Major Commodore of the First Legion Third Multiplication Double Admiral Artillery Vanguard Company Kled

Glad you had such a positive experience in KR. Keen to see you learn Irelia once again :)

Great Video Gbay! Been trying to play Irelia top lately myself and this has been HUGE insight. Thanks for posting this man! GG

Fucking hell this was an amazing video. Gives me goosebumps. You knew what you wanted and went for it. Inspiring, motivational, creative. Stay safe. And after all these years of watching your vids in recommended, I have finally subscribed.

I like how he makes these videos so that someone who doesn't know league could also understand him

What a rollercoaster, I laughed, I cried. Goldbay is back. Los Gehts!

This is probably the best video I have ever seen very nicely made and conducted.

Awesome video, buddy! I came here for the same reasons that you went to South Korea. I really enjoyed following your whole journey of your history with Irelia (she's truly worth it). Keep on making these great videos and have fun playing (: from a fellow Irelia fan

You know you are a good content creator when you can get a community of Irelia mains to watch a 21 minute video for the one sentence that we came for. haha. nice vid. still don't know how the eff to play irelia well though.

Goddamit these videos are just getting better and better. Good stuff gdad

this was amazing man, i laughed so hard in many parts and it was a pleasure to watch this

ah of course, the first thing i do when my main gets reworked and i have a hard time getting used to it is to go to SouthKorea, classic

This man goes on a real life journey to south korea for solo Q. XD

I'm super excited to see the next ranked video now

gbay is back at it with amazing vids again! wonderful watch bro

I dont think words can describe how happy I am that gbay is back to playing irelia.

I literally can't explain to you how much i relate to this video. I played irelia for about 3 seasons straight. She became literally my favorite champ pretty quick, and i played her almost every. single. game. I stopped playing this game for a little while, and made a dedicated attempt to come back to it just to play new Irelia, seeing as the old one was gone forever. I still can't come back to this game, because all i want to do is play irelia, and i can't seem to grasp the game and new irelia's playstyle. I really really REALLYYYYYYYYYY miss old Irelia...

Love it man, things are looking up for you! Keep it up, from Australia with love!

This was such a fun video to see! I love the content that you put out.

Theshy looks weird in this interview.

This man flew around the world to find out killing minions wins games

Been with you since the very beginning Gbay. Been nice to see how much you've grown and how far you've come.

I was also planning to main irelia this season and then this video pops up. Dayum this inspire me even more to main her.

I was thinking about it recently, and I think Gbay has the best documentaries and historical League content in this platform. Not only because he puts his soul, heart, and, most of the time, his own personal background and storylines into the actual docs, but because *all* the content he has made over the years is a fascinating and REALLY entertaining look at how League has evolved. Like, if you watch the first Road to Diamond series he made (and practically invented), you get to understand the old Runes System and Dynamic Queue. And it just grows from there, man. I have to say, the old items are CRAZY, and I know about them only because I watched Gbay's videos, which are, again, really entertaining. Not to mention the old background music, jesus. For some reason I find it really nostalgic when watching the new ones. I think his main, Irelia, and his constant struggle with her changes (the catalyst for this video in particular) is a good reflection of all this. You can actually go back and watch how he played and loved the character, and understand the old mechanics because of it (he probably took so long to understand the minion thing because in old Irelia you just needed one low health minion to stun someone and do the combo). AND HER ULT WAS SO WEIRD BACK THEN. What happened ? So thanks, Gbay. For making a pretty difficult and conflicting game for you into some of the most entertaining videos on KZfaq for us.

Gbay, I feel so happy that you found your passion for Irelia again. It always feels like something is missing in your videos when you can't play her or have fun with her. I hope you can find more than just your passion, but a love for your character as a whole. Edit : ♥

Yaay another GBay Documentary incoming! By the by, the most fun I have while watching your video, is when you are positive, optimistic, and this was a fun video to watch!

This is the most inspirational video i’ve come across so far.. thank you, it means so much ❤️

well now I'm hyped for the Afreeca documentary

Ending song: Hallmore - its her :)

Thank u man, u reseted my mindset! and made me remember the passion that I have for playing the game! keep up

Awesome video. Definitely gave me the drive to keep on keeping on with my champs.

This is one of the most entertaining videos ever XD

Gbay sometime ago: I no longer want to be known as an irelia one trick Gbay now: I now want to be a irelia one trick again

This might be my personal favourite video of yours. Great job!

good production sir and welcome back!

I recommend you the "Irelia still the main" song!

Gbay’s not only back on LoL, but also back on Irelia?? Is it Christmas already?

Keep that promise Gbay, you inspire us all

god this was a fabulous video fucking glorious 11/10 :D. really enjoy having these kinds of videos along side the gbay 100 vids :P

Last time i was this early Gbay was eating a sock

We miss the old gbay99 road to diamond irelia :(

Dude! This video was so great! Congrats!

The effort you put into this video really shows. Well played gbay :)

Gbay: “Irelia became unplayable on toplane” person who got rank 1 on 4 different servers playing Irelia and Jax: “LISTEN BUDDY”

Nobody: Gbay: goes to Korea amidst the coronavirus outbreak

I haven't even gotten to your redemption moment (I hope) in this vid, but I really connected with that first part. I used to love old Irelia because it allowed me to face any matchup with the certainty that I could win If I showed I was better than my oponent, regardless of which champion was better. Then new Irelia came and, well... you said it yourself. Great vid, man.

God, I feel like your videos should get much more views, the content you make is so entertaining and enjoyable. Keep it up man

Gbay this is literally the basics of irelia lmao

5:28 "irelia a lategame scaler" I beg to differ

wow this mustve been so crazy cool for ya gbay, I just smiled for how nice this mustve been for you!

one of the best edited video i have ever seen in a while, good job buddy

"they dont care if they win or lose the match, if they solo kill the top lane thats a win for them" AND YOU WONDER WHY PEOPLE HATE THE GAME.

Joke in the title gbay is the best top laner in the world. He asked himself

this was such a good video ngl so much effort!

Great video man. Really inspirational video, wish I wasn't lockdown without a laptop to grind 😭

remember the old 'art of war' 'art of league' gbay? calm down, focus and be smart edit: pro tip, your champ has abilities, use them!

"I got solo kill by a Yuumi" - a new Gbay99 Comedy SHow :v

I love the mix of Old GoldBay content and Documentary elements in this video

I love your content! You are inspirational! ! Keep it up!

"I payed thousands to learn to manipulate a wave in my favor"

10:21 what an intellectual you are for acknowledging that he's one of the best top laner. Ohmygod he's super underrated.

Dude this made me subscribe again to your channel. Im glad you made this vid

Why doesn’t this video have more love, hands down one of the best KZfaq videos all around I’ve seen in years like come on 👀🤩🤩

17:17 "if anyone knew how to play Irelia, it would be him" TF Blade: *laughs

Someone help me out please :< What's the song starting around 19:05?

These types of videos are great, never stop

keep at it man! i'm loving the content :)
