17:46 In the cinematic featuring the Shadow Isles, he was already dead the moment he stepped out of that protective bubble. Thresh feeds on souls. In fact, that's what's inside that lantern. All the cinematics from Legends of Runeterra are meant to establish a first connection with all the regions in the League of Legends universe. This means that if they continue the animated series, we will probably see more of these regions.
That was one of my favourite in these reactions. Thresh has a dope character design aswell. I heard they're allegedly doing Noxus next which is cool because Noxus seems cool. I'm looking forward to Ionia the most though.
7:23 In the second video, it's about Fiddlesticks, who embodies absolute fear. That is his current form, but he can take any shape because he represents ultimate terror. In the game, he has interactions with certain champions, and when he encounters them, he uses their most horrifying memories against them. For example, when he meets Jinx, he says, "All your fault, all your fault."
If you want a deep dive on Who Faker is, there is a documentary from last year, it's a bit outdated because he won worlds again this year, but its pretty good. It's called Hall of legends: Faker
Piltover and Zaun is one of the most uninteresting regions compared to the others, they are more focused on technology and are more normal humans, while in the others there is more focus on mystical things
The lore behind it is interesting. Its was originally a shuriman city made by the god warriors but it was destroyed because they want to use explosive to mine under the river pilt. And it was rebuilt by merchants or something and became piltover with the miners below which is zaun.
Hard disagree, piltover and zaun is, in my opinion, probably the most interesting region in the lore, both from an aesthetic standpoint (the contrast between zaun's chempunk/gothic style and piltover's clean, almost art deco vibe is fantastic) and also the realism of the political landscape of a population divided, both by class and also literally by the vertical placement of both cities, with even a fairly solid commentary on the nature of systematic opression. And also the other regions are like... Generic guys with swords and magic Generic guys with swords but no magic because they are racists Pirates Magical egyptians Big mountain Viking land if vikings didn't like sailing Granted, i'm obviously biased because arcane gave the already interesting concepts present in P&Z a chance to shine. Can't wait for riot's next project!
Have you seen that art book they released, it’s from jinx’s POV and it shows how they once again fell in love and how they painted each other’s fits in the last ep
@ same man ep7 was too good, when I learned about them bonding in the last ep I was like “ why didn’t they do it”, they said it was all ready but it might cause pacing issues so they decided to not put it in the show…. I hope to see it one day
@@slejdr7298 i feel like the pacing was too quick. I think that last episode could of been two episodes. Like a finale part 1 and part 2. It was still top tier though and I hope we get to see them scenes that weren’t in the Final Cut.
@@SahadFarah there is an MMO in the hoven for a few years but they made a reset on production because it was not going in the direction they wanted. So it's going to be a while until release. But you can play The Ruined King game that is a CRPG that tells the Viego story and you can learn some of the lore of some regions and champions. It's single player and different from league of legends. th-cam.com/video/PotZzQvPdl4/w-d-xo.html
In the first cinematic, in the first scene, the action takes place in Demacia, where we are introduced to Lux, the blonde girl, and her brother Garen fighting against Sylas. In Demacia, magic is forbidden, and Sylas was imprisoned in one of their prisons. Ironically, Lux is a mage, and everyone is surprised when she uses her laser. The thing behind them is Galio, a construct made from a material that absorbs magic. In the second scene, Vi and Caitlyn are fighting against Urgot, who is from Zaun. In the third scene, Ezreal stile an artifact and is helped by Kai'Sa, who is actually a child of the Void.
Yeah I was so confused. I'm planning to dive further into the law because I literally know nothing. Thanks for filling in the gaps my friend. Much appreciated.
4:46 "so these man are boys in this aswell?" LMAO you calling vi and cait boys as if they didn't literally have sex on screen in arcane is hilarious to me 😭😭 yes, vi & cait are "partners" in the original league lore. caitlyn is the sheriff of piltover and vi is her enforcer partner (though vi is known to be a pretty "bad" cop since she basically just punches through all her problems). it was hinted that caitlyn and vi are lovers in the game too, before arcane season 1 came out and confirmed it. vi calls caitlyn "cupcake" multiple times during her voicelines and says some obviously suggestive things (for example, "sheriff cupcake can't be mad at me"). caitlyn also says things that suggest that her and vi are romantically involved such as mentioning vi before she dies in a game etc.
i meant more like they're on the same side but i see the confusion with what i said. At the point i released this video i had no virtually no knowledge of the wider league lore compared to now(i have maybe 5% more knowledge).
Damn going thru your comments people be dropping Paragraphs... goodluck reading all of them. as a lore nerd myself all I can say is that welcome to the league lore club.
The reason Silco and Vander didn't become friends in the original world is because in the parallel world when Vi and powder go to steal Jayce, Vi and Caitlyn die (you know because they say that two children died, but Clagor and Mylo are alive, so only Caitlyn could be the second child), that's why the council arrests Jayce (even because Caitlyn's mother is on the council and she wouldn't let the person responsible for her daughter's death go unpunished), because of the trauma of her sister's death, Powder never used the Crystal Hextec, that's why Silco and Vander could have understood each other after a fight or argument, or even because Silco found out about Vi's death, or because the reason Silco kidnapped Vander in the original universe was because of the police looking for Hextec in the city below. (i used google translate)
That's just partly right tho! Bc i still think they put old man yasuo in the cinematic to indicate that there are lore progression happening, or it's just what happen if Yasuo redeemed his sword and stop taking life. Even if it's not what Riot intend to do, the Lorehead fanbase still happy for it tho.
What I can suggest to you is to look into the lore in depth, because it's extremely obvious how few you understand, because you actually don't know anything except Arcane, and even Arcane you don't really understand, because you aren't familiar with the lore. I'm not going to explain the lore to you here, because there's way too much of it, and you have completely no idea about the lore. The next point I would like to make is that you shouldn't have skipped the K/DA songs because they don't have a copyright. All songs composed for Riot Games should not have a copyright problem because Riot wants it that way. With K/DA, only Popstar has a problem, but that's not Riot's fault. Unfortunately, Riot can't do anything about that. Besides that, absolutely no K/DA song has any copyright problems. Now we come to Star Guardian. It was clear that you didn't seriously react to the Star Guardian videos. Otherwise you would have recognized Ekko in the “Everything Goes On” video. I've noticed anyway that you're the type of person who lets himself be influenced by his own prejudices and doesn't seem to be really open to new things. This is especially obvious because in the Star Guardian videos. Just because Star Guardian is a skin line based on magical girls doesn't mean the lore behind it is automatically bad. Honestly, if you take a look at the Star Guardian lore without any prejudices, you'll see how good and dark it is. The Star Guardian lore is so much better than the Sailor Moon lore, and that's coming from someone who has a Sailor Moon collection on Blu-Ray. So my suggestion to you is to be a little more open to new things, because you can discover many things that you might like. Edit: And one more thing: you shouldn't stop watching videos before they are really over. Not only in League of Legends videos, but also in other videos, there is often a scene that comes after the end logo or credits.
I wouldnt say its better but both are really good. Its just a shame he has a weird stigma around magical girl stories and sometimes it look like against anime itself, sure he dosnt know lore but basic short stories he dosnt need to get basic context of symbolism without taking everything at face value it just required basic watching /reading comprehension having prejudice towards certain things. Like i wrote under the other lol video its just really toxic, when he already dismisses something because he thinks its not dark eanught.
@@lop90ful1 I've already seen the other video of him and I've been annoyed several times by how toxic he can be. I just held back from writing something there. I've now also read your comment and his response to it, which just confirms my opinion. He is so caught up in his stigmatized thinking that he doesn't even give some things a chance. Star Guardians are just one example. And I find such people just sad, because through my openness to new things, I have discovered many great stories that you just can't see with a blinkered worldview because you don't give them a chance from the start. I only referred to Sailor Moon because he mentioned it himself. Which means that he “knows” Sailor Moon. But even here he doesn't know anything about the lore, because I assume that he hasn't even given Sailor Moon a chance.
@@lop90ful1 By the way, in Awaken you see Camille and not Orianna. Camille is not the daughter of Singed, since Camille is canonically older than Signed xD
i just want you to know, i skipped right before you react to the still here cinematics, you haven't said a dozen words yet and i wanted to click of the video right after pausing to write this comment

oh thats pretty cool. Did he say that to Jinx before the arcane was a thing or is that part of her story that was updated for arcane?
@SahadFarah Before Arcane , everything is connected in a way . The League universe is like a spider web , everything is connected.
If you want a deep dive on Who Faker is, there is a documentary from last year, it's a bit outdated because he won worlds again this year, but its pretty good. It's called Hall of legends: Faker
I might react to that next.
@SahadFarah please do that , u ll understand how big the esport scene for this game ... and why is in my opinion the biggest one in the world atm

So isn't a good start for a series ? Trying not so crazy things and focus more on the story i mean
Which regions your favourite?

And also the other regions are like...
Generic guys with swords and magic
Generic guys with swords but no magic because they are racists
Pirates
Magical egyptians
Big mountain
Viking land if vikings didn't like sailing

@SahadFarah noxus for sure
"Filthy Mages" - The soldier who says that is from Demacia a place where magic is forbiden and mages are imprisoned.
Oh so that's why. I did feel the hate in his voice when he said that.
Have you seen that art book they released, it’s from jinx’s POV and it shows how they once again fell in love and how they painted each other’s fits in the last ep
i heard about it but i didnt't know it was an artbook.
@@SahadFarah yeah well they are thinking about giving us those scenes animated in the future
@@slejdr7298I pray they do. Episode 7 was my favourite so seeing more jinx/powder and Ekko is more than welcome.

Riot should make a game like Baldur's Gate with league lore.
Fax. That might be Game Of The Year potential if they do it right.

@41:00 Honestly i wouldn't mind John Cena playing Darius. He might be a bit too goofy for the role though :(
should check out the 2024 worlds opening ceremony
I actually might. By the way, I know worlds is every year but when is it in the year?
@SahadFarah The opening ceremony for the Finals is typically always at the start of November

Thank you for the gracious welcome. Im happy I enlisted 🫡
Bro I feel you, I have all that’s recommended to me absolutely same: ekko dancing with powder or the end scene where jinx is falling 🥲🙏
All i been listening to since the season ended is the soundtrack from Arcane(and maybe some of Kendricks new album). Goated show.
If you play League of Legends you love Arcane and if you got into league because of Arcane you will hate League Of Legends
Not every guy with glasses is Faker, you mistook Faker with Tian Meiko and ShowMaker several times even when they names pop out like show some effort
ahhh shiii. my bad i didn't notice
The reason Silco and Vander didn't become friends in the original world is because in the parallel world when Vi and powder go to steal Jayce,

Oh that makes sense. Thanks for clearing that up for me. I wasn't sure why they didn't make up in the original world.
why is the samurai suddenly old ? ..so they can sell a skin
I've never played the game so i didn't know they did that. Makes sense though, its a free game and they need to monetise it.
That's just partly right tho! Bc i still think they put old man yasuo in the cinematic to indicate that there are lore progression happening, or it's just what happen if Yasuo redeemed his sword and stop taking life.
