The Twisted League is the first iteration of Old School RuneScape Leagues.

In the Twisted League, players were restricted to Great Kourend and the Kebos Lowlands, and were not able to trade with other players. The Twisted League started on 14 November 2019 and ended on 16 January 2020.

Rules

Area restriction

Players were restricted to Great Kourend and the Kebos Lowlands. Any successful attempt to escape from Kourend and Kebos resulted in being teleported back to the respawn point.

• The respawn location was set to Kourend Castle
• Ports aside from the one that goes from one end of Kourend and Kebos to the other will not work
• All teleports will only work if the destination is within Kourend and Kebos
• The Ancient and Lunar spellbooks were not accessible
• All clues obtained only have steps that can be completed within Kourend and Kebos
• Player-owned houses were set and locked to the Hosidius location.

Additional rules

• No trading was to take place between players
• Experience gains were multiplied by 5 times throughout the entire league, including XP from experience lamps.
• Selected shops had increased supplies and accelerated restocking rates
• Shops contain barbarian rods, anti-dragon shields, and pestle and mortar
• Slayer can be started from level 5 combat by speaking to Konar. She has a new Kourend and Kebos defined task list which includes some tasks specific to the Twisted League. Her tasks no longer have area restrictions but still award brimstone keys.

Starting stats

Players start out with a fresh account with the basic stats, besides the following to allow for the ability to do Barbarian Fishing and train Herblore:

• Herblore: Level 3
• Agility: Level 15

Players will also receive the same starting items upon leaving tutorial island.

• Druidic Ritual (access to Herblore)
• Dragon Slayer I (ability to wear rune platebody, green d'hide body and anti-dragon shield.)
• Rune Mysteries (ability to mine rune essence)
• Eagle's Peak (access to box traps)

Other quest-locked equipment, including the dragon scimitar, dragon dagger, dragon longsword, dragon battleaxe and dragon mace, are not usable.

Diary unlocks

The following Kourend & Kebos Diary tasks are automatically completed:

• Travel to the Fairy Ring south of Mount Karuulm
• Cast Monster Examine on a Troll south of Mount Quidamortem

Item drop changes

• The Kodai insignia from Chambers of Xeric is replaced with a Kodai wand.

• The broken dragon hasta from the Brimstone chest is replaced with a dragon hasta.

• If a pet is lost, it can be reclaimed for free by talking to the Leagues Tutor.

Tasks

Main article: Twisted League/Tasks

Tasks in the Twisted League allow players to earn league points and unlock relics that buff their character. Tasks span five different difficulty levels: Easy, Medium, Hard, Elite, and Master. In the league, there are 495 different tasks to complete, ranging from reaching a certain level in a skill to getting a certain amount of boss kills. The points awarded for each difficulty level are:

Difficulty	Points
Easy	10
Medium	50
Hard	100
Elite	250
Master	500

Relics

A player unlocks a relic in the Twisted League.

Relics are powerful buffs that are unlocked with League Points. Upon leaving Tutorial Island, players are presented with three Relics to choose from without the need for points.

Once players choose a Relic of a tier, they will be permanently unlocked, but cannot change their Relic selection for that tier.

Tier 1 (0 points)

Icon	Name	Effect
	Abyssal Accumulator	Players save 85% of their ammunition and runes.
	Endless Endurance	Players have unlimited run energy. The rate in which hitpoints are restored is quadrupled.
	Dark Altar Devotion	Bones dropped by monsters are automatically buried, and grant quadruple the normal experience. The rate in which a player's prayer is drained is halved. Ensouled heads now drop two at a time.

Tier 2 (400 points)

	Treasure Seeker	NPCs that drop clue scrolls now have a flat 1/10 chance of dropping them. Clue geodes, nests and bottles are now found ten times more often from all skilling activities from which they can be found. All un-started clues are stackable. All clues have the lowest number of steps possible for their tier.
