He was lvl 2 when his opponent was lvl 3 and hit lvl 3 a little after getting to lane. The exp difference is nearly ignorable. Even if it's a risky move it's not something that needs to be in the game; it requires opponent's to either know that it's possible or get lucky by walking past drag that early in the game. We were purple side which is the preffered side for this tactic imo, blue side players rarely walk near drag pit that early in the game.

Drags targetting ai needs to be fixed. Dragon doesn't even attack anything while this is being done. Dragon spazzes out and just looks at everything, basically auto attack canceling, then flies back in to the pit. Heimer then auto's drag to pull it out of the pit again before it starts to regen hp.

I don't think Heim could solo drag lvl 1 way back in the day because it's ai was different and Heim could only have 1 turret lvl 1. Even if he could it'd take like 6 minutes to kill drag alone, in which case it'd be way more risky and less profitable to do this. Atm there's little downside to doing this, especially if he's purple side and his opponents don't know this is possible. Just looking at YT video views ~400,000 people know this is possible and (according to Riot ~2 yrs ago) LoL has 32 million players. That's what? Like 1% of the playerbase? So ~1% of the playerbase know how to do this and how to stop it. That ~1% of players have an advantage over their opponents just by knowing this trick is possible. If the information wasn't hard to find it wouldn't be a big deal but seeing how you wouldn't know it unless you stumbled upon it (like here) or see it happen in game by one of the players that know about it, it sort of is a "deal".
