grammyMy personal theory is that there was a major spike in originial use from when blaze started appearing more often in Twitch Experience highlights and beaters frag videos, peaking at time such as his 4k at rewind 2 and the "beast speedshot". Yomps' soldier (who if you watch, plays very similar to blazes roamer playstyle) also contributed to this spike, as froyo was often quoted as the best in the world during that time period (not tryna start another "best" argument here), and both of their soldiers used the original which easily led to speculation and imitation.
