And now valor emblems must replace heroism loot on each heroic boss but it's not that way. Valor set is now not available because there is no way to obtain a valor emblem.

So anything between the 2 start times = patch 3.1.x on live. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zBlui5bZnHc which is from May 2009
0:55+ ; look what you see when loot is opened.
Any dungeons that previously dropped [Emblems of Heroism] or [Valor], such as Naxxramas or Heroic Halls of Stone, will now drop [Emblems of Conquest] instead. Emblems of Conquest can still be converted to Valor or Heroism.
(http://wow.gamepedia.com/Patch_3.2.0#Dungeons_and_Raids) alone by themselves should be conclusive enough; it`s basically beyond any (reasonable) doubt that 3.2 was the 'big Emblem streamlining patch' where the now-seen system of top tier Emblems dropping from the current raid (ToC then ICC) and penultimate tier Emblems dropping from everything else had been initially established. Ulduar, which was current content during 3.1, did not feature that. It kept the classic Emblem distribution system from 3.0, except that Ulduar 25 introduced the new Emblem of Conquest, and Ulduar 10 became a new source for the Emblem of Valor.
