Bard ae kiting was nerfed during PoP era. There was plenty of time where it was happening.

Also I can't ever remember anyone doing it with the strafe method. Everyone did it with selos and lots of people did figure 8 style paths or ovals to have song land when they path close to them. I'm sure those methods were used instead of just nice circles because of the lag.
