For me its ”i fight until the blood takes the spear from my grasp, until i can only crawl, and even then, u Will not deafete me, even the, I Will spit in ur face”
pantheon is one of my favorite champions because his rework always felt like it actually happened in the lore instead of rewriting the character like almost all the other reworks seemed to do
@@freelancebabymaker "old Pantheon" had obsession with bread and wanted to be a baker, a wargod with a love for the simple life Edited: thats why he had the Baker skin
I think many people don't realize that but in The Call Pantheon throws down his spear before fighting soldiers and only uses shield and fists because he does not intend to kill humans, soldiers like him. He only knocks them down. However, when he sees Leona he knows she holds the power of Aspect what means to him that she is a puppet to Celestials and then he starts to actually fight. Such a small detail that makes even more sense when you understand his lore
That was Atreus not Pantheon, the lore has been updated, and in the Call cinematic video that was Atreus - a mortal with the power of the "old Pantheon" fought against Leona - against the Celestials, in 11:45 of this video that is the Pantheon - the old Pantheon.
I would contest and say the Aspects themselves are rather lawful evil: they have a duty to the celestials (the beings that select mortals to be aspects) and that duty is to defeat the void to save reality. A couple hundred dead humans to save reality is a very evil thing, but they have a compulsion to serve, a lawful edict. Except Atreus, because the celestial that bound him is dead, and so Atreus no longer has that charge.
Ah thats fair lawful evil, i just some aspects would be slightly different like some more chaotic or some more good. Thats true! Atreus is an interesting seperate entity hmm! Thanks for watching :)
Not evil as in villainous, mind you, but evil that that they serve to an ideal, not to people. Kayle and her "justice is immortal and therefore better" Leona with "the blessed sun shall cleanse the unworthy" The aspect of twilight " I do as I wish" (sealing the darkin in their weapons, imprisoning Aurelion Sol) even Zoe, uncaring as she is, will do whatever to the detriment of anyone. Diana in "truth weighs more than ignorance, a weight that kills those who can't bear it." Morgana "redemption is difficult and not all can survive it." The least evil is Taric, aspect of the protector, as he is one of the few who actually values the life of a mortal. The aspect of the traveler is at best indifferent to your fate, and Soraka isn't an aspect. I think it's an interesting portrayal of "ideals are unwavering and, therfore, unforgiving." Edit: Atreus, being forgiving or mortals (the fallible) but not of the gods (the supposed infallible)
Not quite tho, the Celestial wanted the humanity to keep the track that they put for us, but with time, humanity stopped understanding the messages in the skies, then, they created Targon, with it, a new form to communicate, but Soraka came down from the heavens because she see what humanity could make without following the pre stablish path that they put for us, but rather, the destiny that us are making by our own, and yet, not even Soraka knew exactly what was the big plan to Runeterra(?
Aspects themselves, sure, but The Pantheon was the only one that completely erased the host's personality, as far as we know (Aspect of Twilight might be another one, since we don't know much about who Zoe was). The other hosts, such as Leona, Diana and Taric, still keep much of themselves, so they at least temper the Aspects' warmongering.
Pantheon and Aatrox are supposed to be similar, Aatrox, the corrupted void version of the celestial ascended, despises himself and everything, for he cannot die, and the void corrupting his mind makes him resent and angry for every living creature. So Aatrox seeks a foe that can kill him, but leaves carnage as he wakes. Pantheon, the aspect of war, cared not for the men women and children slaughtered in war, like aatrox, and reveled in the war. Atreus, a mortal man, with a will power stronger than the gods, was looked down on by the god of war himself, and so instead took over his body once reaching the peak, casting his consciousness into the darkness as pantheon raged war. During this war, He meets Aatrox, where he then gains his title as God killer, as he impales Pantheon on his blade. This kills the god, and brings back the man. With sheer rage, will and determination, Atreus nursed his wound back to health, and with his will, reignited the flame of power that was lost when the celestial died. Now with his rage, hatred and distain for the celestials, he seeks to kill every god, so only man may rise in the ashes of war. Where pantheon despises the gods for their disregard for the mortals they look down on, Aatrox has his rage placed in every living being, god or man, as they left him to die. From the bloodied flesh, rises aatrox, and from the twilight stars, rises man.
Might I also add, Pantheon is also inherently linked to every single aspect, Like zoe, morgana, taric, kayle, and very much linked to Aurelion Sol, the celestial dragon who created the stars, where the celestials were born. Id def suggest reading the lore of pantheon, as it is one of the best things produced by riot, behind jhins lore and personally zeds lore
What is really interesting to see is the relationship of Soraka to Humanity. She gives a good insight, how celestials and Aspects think: Celestials have a "greater plan" to guide mankind. This plan is shown via stars and constellations. (Also with the help of Aspects). Soraka just couldnt keep watching, how humanity frequently "messed up" and completely ignored the celestial rule. She came down herself in the form of a wandering healer, just to guide humanity herself. After years she realized, how humanity has its own plan and doesnt need the celestials for guidance. So she just keeps healing and helping mankind, without interfering. This makes her the only Aspect (besides maybe Taric), who is actually respected by Pantheon. (LoR voicelines)
@@IoniaZero it depends. Some units, like Camphor, never get respect when allied, at least with panth. All of his quotes with her are him insulting and threatening her. Even while on Pantheons team, Diana and Leona are treated with suspicion (‘question all you are told’ ‘by all. -even- the gods’) (“chosen of the sun’ ‘light must only guide us, Leona’). Taric is the only aspect he doesn’t have ‘suspicious’ lines for, but he has the most “on enemy team” lines with Taric.
Maybe the Aspects should try writing what they want in baby speak or just telling exactly what they want instead of "OOOH I'M NOT TELLING YOU EXACTLY HOW TO PREVENT IMMINENT DOOM, BUT HERE! A RIDDLE FOR YOU!". All fuckers who do this shit should be thrown into a black hole.
One of my takes on Pantheon as a character is that he's the embodiment of everything positive about masculinity, he's strong, humble, down to earth, hard working, not condescending, fights for what is right, stands up against what is wrong, understanding and selfless. Pantheon is imo the combination of all the positives of a traditionally masculine man.
Pantheon is the personification of "Masculinity Done Right" But into his LoR lore, there is the wife of his fallen friend who is as powerful as Pantheon when it comes to will-power. Therefore, at my eyes Pantheon is Masculinity Done Right. His clan is Humanity Done Right.
Pantheon/Atreus best voicelines in the game. 10/10 would rate again. Amazing out of Best The old Pantheon used to be in the lore the Aspect that took Atreus' body but people absolutely loved Atreus and it was changed in the lore when Pantheon got a rework. I mean who doesn't love a hero who is the personification of perseverance. 14:00 This is 100% the movie Gladiator (2000)
Aspects and celestials are pretty set in their ways... so most of them can come off as evil... or at least very shady. There are a few who don't. Soraka is a celestial who decided that humans have their own path and doesn't interfere. She's just participates in the world as a wondering healer. Funny enough... when you heal others in game... she takes damage. Her mortal body has trouble holding her celestial spirit. I kind of see path and aatrox as very similar people who took different paths. One eventually gave in to their despair... and one grasps hope at every turn.
I would say the proper way to look at celestials is that everything is done “for the greater good”. They never deviate from “the ends justify the means”, literal thanos thinking. If snapping away half of reality would save the other half, they would do it without question. So the question isn’t whether celestials are good or evil, the question is do celestials have a line drawn in the sand that even they will not cross? How far does that line go? Do they even know how to draw that line? They live entirely in the gray area between good or evil, where you do good things for evil reasons, or do evil things for ultimately good reasons. That gray area is super dangerous, because it has almost no limitation compared to the black or the white, and can be warped in whatever way fits the situation.
Only Aurelion left for the holy Trinity of going against the douchebags called the celestials. You can see Aatrox in the background on Pantheon splash art. I recommend reading the short stories of these champions you have reacted, you only read the biographies, but the short stories are really good. Also, in that part it said Viego took control of Pantheon, kind of like how he controls Darius in ruination cinematic. So Pantheon the aspect didn't help Viego because he wanted.
I'm really glad you took a moment to appreciate Atreus, he was fun to play before he got reworked, but I truly fell in love with his character afterwords! He may have been the aspect of War, but to me he represents Hope and Brotherhood. A will to stand in spite of one's mortality, and "remember who you are."
Oh I entirely agree! The character atreus is definitely a hero and is a very strong character! His voicework is done so well! Is just a great character all around! Thanks for watching :)
The animation that played in the middle of the voice lines was a login screen back in the day. It was so damn cool to see that play every time you open the client, alon with the theme. I miss the login screens :'(
Though I personally think that you get much more out of characters like swain and Fiddle, _after_ you know what they are talking about, it also can build intrigue for later, so I am torn about it if that is a good recommendation xD
Pantheon had possibly one of the BIGGEST GLOW UPS, as he was another champion that was "reworked". The original Pantheon was MUCH SIMPLER looking of course. Thanks for the vid!
Pantheon is climbing to get to the aspects, u got it right, even tho the aspect have some hosts and are scattered all over the world, targon is the best conection u can have with them, also as u can see in the call, Pantheon finds the aspect of the sun, leona and fights her on mountain targon and then other aspect shoot him down, (DIana, the host of the aspect of the moon live also on Targon) In a World cought between Aspects/Gods, Watcher, Void, and super celestial Beings, Pantheon represents Human, the human soldier who is cought in all that mess
I would love if you did Taliyah’s voice lines next! I think she would be a nice champ to bring more variation to the type of champs you’ve been learning about
Great video as always! I really like how you take your time to search for the story of these characters, to get it right before going for the voicelines! I'm patiently waiting for the day you react to Pyke! Different from the type of champions you're reacting to for now, but he's one of my favorites and I'd love to know what you think of him. ^^ Good luck with your future content!
Thank you! Knowing the story definitely helps with understand the voicelines better so its deffo my preferred way :) Oooo yesss and I am interested to learn more about pyke in the ruined king game for sure :) tysm! :D
great video, i would recommend looking at the voice lines on skin spotlight, it's more clear to who or doing what triggers every line so it gives a little more of context to why are they saying what they say for example if it's directed at a character from a specific region or doing an action
I always love when you do these deep dive video into specific character. Really cool hearing about your thoughts on them :D. One character I recommend you looking into is Tahm Kench, my favourite champion in term of concept, design and personality. Always excited to see who you would review next. (also, if you are planning to do Tahm Kench, please DO watch the special interaction video. it add so much to his character, plus its hilarious)
I highly suggest not looking at the lore through the League Wiki and instead the Official LOL Universe page. I'm pretty sure everything on the Wiki is not written by rioters but everything on the Official League Universe page is written by Riot writers and is canon. If you want more detailed, well written and canon lore then you need to look at it through there. Also as you have maybe seen other people in the comments suggest but Necrit has a great video for people trying to get more into the lore called: Story of League of Legends Explained Also love watching your league journey :)
Yea there are somethings changed on that website. I remember when i read the whole story of Pantheon through the official universe page, and the constellation of Pantheon has a star thats called Atreus, when Pantheon was killed and Atreus went to fight Aatrox, Atreus through a strong will of fighting or something like that, awakens the celestial powers and only the star called Atreus in the constellation of Pantheon comes back to light, not the whole constellation like this wiki page says.
Fear not i'll make good use of your corpes... Yorick is good for the story he is linked to is damn well shaped and important in runeterra's lore... but riot don't remember Yorick Mori
@@sortilien2099 Riot doesn t care about him becouse he doesn t sell skins.Also they did him dirty in the RUINATION event .Whole point of Yorick is that he is opposite of Viego and that he is gathering an army to oppose him.
Pantheon is my favorite story in the lore. I like your comparison to 300, it is a very similar one. He also reminds me of Stormlight Archive quite a lot with his convictions and depth of heart for humanity. I’m so glad you were as impressed by him as much as I am!
"Behind me lies a farm. I wonder if there is bread above the hearth, and if I will ever return." That line fits in so well with one of the gods of my group's D&D setting. Maurn the Weary is a war god who hates war. One who bears the burden of every last dead soldier's soul as he carries them across the Bone River. One who has instructed his followers in the way of soothing the itch of phantom limbs, and calming the old veteran who awakens in the dark of night screaming for fallen friends. A god who wanders through the cherry forests and poppy fields, crying for all whose fields have gone fallow, whose boats have rotted in the docks, and whose wives must return to a cold, empty bed.
Pant is the best lore characters. This rework, with all things with Darkin, Aspects and more, make him, a exceptional hero, for the Runeterra. Against Darkin, Aspects and Void. Only to protect who needs protection.
Hope you react to Camille voicelines too! It'll be worth it. And I suggest listening for voicelines and other stuff on SkinSpotlights channel bcoz everything is complete there and have subtitles :)
Viego controls those he resurrects, so when Pantheon came back, he was under Viego's thrall. And having an undead god is clearly not a good thing for anyone.
love your reactions, especially your thoughts about the champions. its always interesting to watch your videos. can't wait for you to see Sylas and his story. in my opinion, its one of the best because it gives you different view on the main regions, Demacia. oh, and if you do react to him, highly recommend to check out his champion trailer. not really because its important, but i think its just very epic.
I read in an offical publiced story: "Celestials don't care about well-being of Targon people. Assuming they have good intensions is one of the biggest mistakes you can make. They are no gods. People of Rakkor (Atreus's people) never called them gods. They can't even come to earth without help of people. They are just manupilating the mind of people they got in. Whatever their plan is can't be good." In "The Call" while Atreus was trying to climb to mountain third times to protect people, celestials attacked him. And as one of writers said, Pantheon and Aspect of Sun encountered each other 40 years ago, but that time Aspect of Sun wasn't Leona. Which means 2 different people have been Aspect of Sun in last 40 years. Normally there wouldn't be that many aspects in the earth at the same time and they wouldn't come that often to earth.
There's a channel called SkinSpotlights, their videos are really good for getting context to champions lines in-game as well as learning some story beats between champions
To loosely quote someone else: "Pantheon has immense pride but douses it in humility." He holds himself in very high regard but not because he believes he is greater but because he has to in order to keep fighting for everyone else. This fucking guy. This fucking MAN right here is a great example of well written masculinity that doesn't feel forced or shoehorned in to prove a point.
i am not sure if you saw but in Pantheons Splash Art you see the Face of Aatrox they are enemies and have battled for a long time so it makes sense to have him in there
Something I haven't seen mentioned on my quick skim in the comments, is that you can actually see AAtrox in the background of Pantheons Original Splash (the last one).
When I used to work in the warehouse and I needed motivation I popped in his quotes and got to work. "When I fall, I ran around the mountain till not even shame could keep up with me" "I am no more than a soldier and no less".
Oh yes, I was hoping you would do Pantheon soon. Such amazing quotes, I personally love the "After every defeat, I ran around the mountain until even shame could not keep up". League is an old game, and holds a lot of lore, especially lately they are invested into making more of it and fitting it all together. Compared to the teams that make the game, the art/lore design teams are godlike.
"This reminds me of Leonidas leading his 300 Spartans". The Rankor Tribe previously being called the Stanpar before the Targonian reboot: Shh don't tell her. Lmao
thank you for this reaction. Amongs the aspects, you should try Taric next, he resonnates better with character that got abused by the aspects such as Pantheon and Aurelion ol
Nice reaction video, I would recommend reacting to Mordekaiser as I personally like him fun fact: you can see Aatrox's head behind Pantheon in his basic skin Splashart
It's a bit funny. When Pantheon got slain by Aatrox - constelation of War was gone, and as and Aspect whole. But at the same time it wasn't. Because Aatrox is also an avatar of War. They represent the same Aspect but from different...ehh...cultures? Targon and Shurima
@11:44 The artwork you see here is the old Pantheon design, smiting a Red Buff. Old Pantheon still had his plated armor. I loved this art, it was part of the 2015 login screen. th-cam.com/video/mUeloo_Qvrk/w-d-xo.html
13:50 actually reminds me of Gladiator, when Maximus has the flashbacks of the wheat fields and his slaughtered wife and son, maybe it's just me P.S.: You skipped in the lines video the final part which is the most funny...
Probably a stretch, but I love how themes tell a story, in the beginning the war chants represent the man climbing Mount tragón, the second part with instruments represent the aspect, the dark part of the theme represents the struggle with the darkin, and the finale is the man being free with the power of a god.
Pantheons voice lines in a sense do come from a place of despair, but not in humanity. He has witnessed first hand what his gods are really like, uncaring, about those that worship them, and uninterested, in their troubles. Despite seeing that his gods are real he has lost faith in them, faith that they will protect and guide his people. This is why he is so dejected. Instead of placing his faith in the gods he places it in the hands of humans, in himself. Instead of praying to the heavens, to gods he knows won't care enough to help, he takes action. This is what makes him one of the best characters in the game, morally, and lore wise. I would also like to clarify a quote that will probably be taken out of context otherwise. He says "If they kill me, at least I die a man." he does not mean this in a manly sort of bravado sense. He means it in the sense of free will. If he died as the host of Pantheon, then he would not have died of his own will. Now, as a free man, if he dies, he won't die as an Aspect, because of someone else's wishes, he will die as a man, someone who took the conscious choice to stand up for something knowing full well that it could cost him his life. It's also worth noting that Aspects and Celestials are two separate things. They are lower tier stellar beings that cannot manifest their own physical from, so they must use hosts. Alternatively the Celestials can directly effect the universe either by changing the stars themselves (Aurelion Sol) or by manifesting their own physical forms (Bard, Soraka). However it does seem that in lowering herself to the mortal world, Soraka has lost some level of her power. Ultimately Aurelion and Bard are by far the two most powerful beings in the lore, however at current A Sol is bound to the Aspect after they tricked him, so he lost a certain level of his free will.
Welcome to Pantheon, the biggest gigachad in League and maybe any game. The man who, upon waking up impaled, *spat at the creature impaling him,* reignited a dead constellation *TWICE* and fights for mankind.
If you continue learning about the aspects of Targon you will probably shift your alignment speculation slightly, but the vessels that you haven't fully explored, Diana and Leona, Kayle and Morgana, Zoey and Taric all have something interesting to bring to the table. I won't give a suggestion with whom to continue, given that all of them are interesting in their own right, though I would say Zoey is the least heavy in lore and story but certainly a departure from the rest of all these super serious bunch:D
"I hate useing shields in games" I can only imagine how many time's you've died in games if there's shield in the game by god I'm going to use because something that can save me countless time's in battle
pantheon and aatrox are pretty similar in their own way, pantheon's freedom was taken away by being controlled twice first by the aspect of war then viego, and aatrox's freedom was taken away by being sealed on the sword.
What i like of Atreus Is in a world like runaterra , when humans aré fighting other humans for power ( noxus vs ionia, piltower vs Zion etc) see a Man fighting vs darkins ,demons AND aspects for all mankind Is cool Also him and aatrox are the two faces of mankind : Aatrox Is the worst part of a person can become : a person full of anger AND hate AND Atreus Is the othe side of the coin : The part of mankind who refuse to give up

"The stars are beyond my reach, and so I grasp my spear and take aim" is probably the best line in the entire game. Always gives me goosebumps.
yeah it gives you great "today we're gonna challenge god" vibes
Watch again "The call" you'll see that quote.
"The dragon pit is beyond my reach, and so i grasp my spear and take aim"
For me its ”i fight until the blood takes the spear from my grasp, until i can only crawl, and even then, u Will not deafete me, even the, I Will spit in ur face”
"After every defeat I ran around the mountain, until even shame could not keep up." also goes very hard
pantheon is one of my favorite champions because his rework always felt like it actually happened in the lore instead of rewriting the character like almost all the other reworks seemed to do

I kind of see path and aatrox as very similar people who took different paths. One eventually gave in to their despair... and one grasps hope at every turn.
I would say the proper way to look at celestials is that everything is done “for the greater good”. They never deviate from “the ends justify the means”, literal thanos thinking. If snapping away half of reality would save the other half, they would do it without question. So the question isn’t whether celestials are good or evil, the question is do celestials have a line drawn in the sand that even they will not cross? How far does that line go? Do they even know how to draw that line? They live entirely in the gray area between good or evil, where you do good things for evil reasons, or do evil things for ultimately good reasons. That gray area is super dangerous, because it has almost no limitation compared to the black or the white, and can be warped in whatever way fits the situation.
Only Aurelion left for the holy Trinity of going against the douchebags called the celestials.
You can see Aatrox in the background on Pantheon splash art.
I recommend reading the short stories of these champions you have reacted, you only read the biographies, but the short stories are really good.
Also, in that part it said Viego took control of Pantheon, kind of like how he controls Darius in ruination cinematic. So Pantheon the aspect didn't help Viego because he wanted.
I'm really glad you took a moment to appreciate Atreus, he was fun to play before he got reworked, but I truly fell in love with his character afterwords! He may have been the aspect of War, but to me he represents Hope and Brotherhood. A will to stand in spite of one's mortality, and "remember who you are."
Oh I entirely agree! The character atreus is definitely a hero and is a very strong character! His voicework is done so well! Is just a great character all around! Thanks for watching :)
The animation that played in the middle of the voice lines was a login screen back in the day. It was so damn cool to see that play every time you open the client, alon with the theme.
I miss the login screens :'(
was waiting for this so much, thank you. Please do Swain next.
Tysm I hope you enjoy hehe :)
When you do swain, do the character interactions. He interacts much in the way fiddlesricks does.
@@hemagionaltovao5291 you completely right, thats a very important detail.
Though I personally think that you get much more out of characters like swain and Fiddle, _after_ you know what they are talking about, it also can build intrigue for later, so I am torn about it if that is a good recommendation xD
Pantheon had possibly one of the BIGGEST GLOW UPS, as he was another champion that was "reworked". The original Pantheon was MUCH SIMPLER looking of course. Thanks for the vid!
it'd be very interesting to see your reaction to the card voice lines they give a lot of character and info on the different regions of runeterra.
Pantheon is climbing to get to the aspects, u got it right, even tho the aspect have some hosts and are scattered all over the world, targon is the best conection u can have with them, also as u can see in the call, Pantheon finds the aspect of the sun, leona and fights her on mountain targon and then other aspect shoot him down, (DIana, the host of the aspect of the moon live also on Targon)
In a World cought between Aspects/Gods, Watcher, Void, and super celestial Beings, Pantheon represents Human, the human soldier who is cought in all that mess
The dragonslayer pantheon skin is still my favourite because during his ult he "morphs" into a dragon during the channel and landing after the jump
I would love if you did Taliyah’s voice lines next! I think she would be a nice champ to bring more variation to the type of champs you’ve been learning about
Or Neeko. Because Neeko is best decision.
Great video as always! I really like how you take your time to search for the story of these characters, to get it right before going for the voicelines!
I'm patiently waiting for the day you react to Pyke! Different from the type of champions you're reacting to for now, but he's one of my favorites and I'd love to know what you think of him. ^^
Good luck with your future content!
Thank you! Knowing the story definitely helps with understand the voicelines better so its deffo my preferred way :)
Oooo yesss and I am interested to learn more about pyke in the ruined king game for sure :) tysm! :D
Absolutely awesome video!! Don't ever stop being Georgiee 😃
Pantheon and Swain maybe the greatest voicelines in the game, for totally different reasons.
I would love to see a galaxy slayer zed or thresh reaction 😁
edit: also kayn and galaxy slayer zed has cool interactions with eachother
great video, i would recommend looking at the voice lines on skin spotlight, it's more clear to who or doing what triggers every line so it gives a little more of context to why are they saying what they say for example if it's directed at a character from a specific region or doing an action
I always love when you do these deep dive video into specific character. Really cool hearing about your thoughts on them :D. One character I recommend you looking into is Tahm Kench, my favourite champion in term of concept, design and personality. Always excited to see who you would review next. (also, if you are planning to do Tahm Kench, please DO watch the special interaction video. it add so much to his character, plus its hilarious)
I highly suggest not looking at the lore through the League Wiki and instead the Official LOL Universe page. I'm pretty sure everything on the Wiki is not written by rioters but everything on the Official League Universe page is written by Riot writers and is canon. If you want more detailed, well written and canon lore then you need to look at it through there.
Also as you have maybe seen other people in the comments suggest but Necrit has a great video for people trying to get more into the lore called: Story of League of Legends Explained
Also love watching your league journey :)
Yea there are somethings changed on that website. I remember when i read the whole story of Pantheon through the official universe page, and the constellation of Pantheon has a star thats called Atreus, when Pantheon was killed and Atreus went to fight Aatrox, Atreus through a strong will of fighting or something like that, awakens the celestial powers and only the star called Atreus in the constellation of Pantheon comes back to light, not the whole constellation like this wiki page says.
You should do Yorick next . He is not that popular ,but he has some great quotes.
Fear not i'll make good use of your corpes...
Yorick is good for the story he is linked to is damn well shaped and important in runeterra's lore... but riot don't remember Yorick Mori
Sion would also be great one.
@@sortilien2099 Riot doesn t care about him becouse he doesn t sell skins.Also they did him dirty in the RUINATION event .Whole point of Yorick is that he is opposite of Viego and that he is gathering an army to oppose him.
Pantheon is my favorite story in the lore. I like your comparison to 300, it is a very similar one. He also reminds me of Stormlight Archive quite a lot with his convictions and depth of heart for humanity. I’m so glad you were as impressed by him as much as I am!
I WAS JUST THINKING OF SA! I just finished book 3 and cannot wait to get 4
@@tezla6332 life before death, radiant!
"Behind me lies a farm. I wonder if there is bread above the hearth, and if I will ever return."
That line fits in so well with one of the gods of my group's D&D setting. Maurn the Weary is a war god who hates war. One who bears the burden of every last dead soldier's soul as he carries them across the Bone River. One who has instructed his followers in the way of soothing the itch of phantom limbs, and calming the old veteran who awakens in the dark of night screaming for fallen friends. A god who wanders through the cherry forests and poppy fields, crying for all whose fields have gone fallow, whose boats have rotted in the docks, and whose wives must return to a cold, empty bed.
Great homebrew god
Pant is the best lore characters. This rework, with all things with Darkin, Aspects and more, make him, a exceptional hero, for the Runeterra. Against Darkin, Aspects and Void. Only to protect who needs protection.
Hope you react to Camille voicelines too! It'll be worth it. And I suggest listening for voicelines and other stuff on SkinSpotlights channel bcoz everything is complete there and have subtitles :)
Viego controls those he resurrects, so when Pantheon came back, he was under Viego's thrall. And having an undead god is clearly not a good thing for anyone.
BRAUM IS HERE!
Try beating that voice line , it sparks the small happiness us league players have left in our lifes
"I will fall atleast one more time..."
That line has gotten me through more things then I can count.
love your reactions, especially your thoughts about the champions. its always interesting to watch your videos.
can't wait for you to see Sylas and his story. in my opinion, its one of the best because it gives you different view on the main regions, Demacia.
oh, and if you do react to him, highly recommend to check out his champion trailer. not really because its important, but i think its just very epic.
I WAS WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO!!!!
btw love your content💚💚
Awhhhh tysm I hope you enjoy :)
”Unbroken until my spear dulls. I will not surrender„ ❤
I read in an offical publiced story:
"Celestials don't care about well-being of Targon people. Assuming they have good intensions is one of the biggest mistakes you can make. They are no gods. People of Rakkor (Atreus's people) never called them gods. They can't even come to earth without help of people. They are just manupilating the mind of people they got in. Whatever their plan is can't be good."
In "The Call" while Atreus was trying to climb to mountain third times to protect people, celestials attacked him. And as one of writers said, Pantheon and Aspect of Sun encountered each other 40 years ago, but that time Aspect of Sun wasn't Leona. Which means 2 different people have been Aspect of Sun in last 40 years. Normally there wouldn't be that many aspects in the earth at the same time and they wouldn't come that often to earth.
Aww, they missed his joke line. "I CALL UPON THE ANCIENTS, *retrieves bread from the sky* to make my bountiful breads!"
the stars*
@@peterkezas8083 oh whoops, I misquoted Sp4zie by accident XD. Thanks
There's a channel called SkinSpotlights, their videos are really good for getting context to champions lines in-game as well as learning some story beats between champions
darius/god king darius's reaction would be awesome next super cool character especially that skin's lines it even has a trailer
Yusss I will do for sure :) I will add it to the list thank you 😊
Since you mentioned wanting to see the skins in the game I recommend looking at the Wild Rift skins they are probably the most detailed.
To loosely quote someone else: "Pantheon has immense pride but douses it in humility." He holds himself in very high regard but not because he believes he is greater but because he has to in order to keep fighting for everyone else. This fucking guy. This fucking MAN right here is a great example of well written masculinity that doesn't feel forced or shoehorned in to prove a point.
Also, if you want some Game of Thrones vibes, you can look up Swain. He also has some nice voice lines.
You should also check out Aurelion sol's lore
It's my favorite theme and story it's amazing
Aurelion sol is DEFFO coming soon! I want to know so much more :P
i am not sure if you saw but in Pantheons Splash Art you see the Face of Aatrox they are enemies and have battled for a long time so it makes sense to have him in there
Something I haven't seen mentioned on my quick skim in the comments, is that you can actually see AAtrox in the background of Pantheons Original Splash (the last one).
in pantheon's slash art, there's aatrox in the background, you can see the shape and eyes
Aatrox Ascended to Darkin.
Pantheon Aspect to Man.
Both of them are release from godhood duty.
When I used to work in the warehouse and I needed motivation I popped in his quotes and got to work.
"When I fall, I ran around the mountain till not even shame could keep up with me"
"I am no more than a soldier and no less".
"it reminds me of aatrox", if you look closely, aatrox is just behind pantheon on that first picture (he's just super big there)
Also finally I find someone who felt the same way. The celestial and aspect are very SUSSS.... To me
After reading pantheon's lore he might just be my new favourite champion besides yone. I like what yone stands for aswell.
Ooh, another voice line reaction! Loved it. Wishing to see more Champs that also have interactions with others like fiddlesticks
The time of MANTHEON has come!
The Pantheon found Atreus unworthy and yet Atreus survived a blow that killed War itself.
There is a fiddlesticks theme youtube video, too. How they created him, the ideas itd. His music and song. I would love to see you react to it.
Oh yes, I was hoping you would do Pantheon soon.
Such amazing quotes, I personally love the "After every defeat, I ran around the mountain until even shame could not keep up".
League is an old game, and holds a lot of lore, especially lately they are invested into making more of it and fitting it all together.
Compared to the teams that make the game, the art/lore design teams are godlike.
"This reminds me of Leonidas leading his 300 Spartans".
The Rankor Tribe previously being called the Stanpar before the Targonian reboot: Shh don't tell her. Lmao
Can't wait for you to react to Aurelion Sol, his story is really interesting and his lines are hilarious ^^
Or Kled. Full-fledged meme fest.
thank you for this reaction. Amongs the aspects, you should try Taric next, he resonnates better with character that got abused by the aspects such as Pantheon and Aurelion ol
I would recommend you react to the story of aurelion sol and he's voicelines. You would like it :)
Nice reaction video, I would recommend reacting to Mordekaiser as I personally like him
fun fact: you can see Aatrox's head behind Pantheon in his basic skin Splashart
It's a bit funny. When Pantheon got slain by Aatrox - constelation of War was gone, and as and Aspect whole. But at the same time it wasn't. Because Aatrox is also an avatar of War. They represent the same Aspect but from different...ehh...cultures? Targon and Shurima
Thankies, Georgie-pie! Seems like the Kayne's video will be last near 1,5 hour!
@11:44 The artwork you see here is the old Pantheon design, smiting a Red Buff. Old Pantheon still had his plated armor.
I loved this art, it was part of the 2015 login screen.
th-cam.com/video/mUeloo_Qvrk/w-d-xo.html
JustAnotherNobody have the best Quotes videos of League champs i've ever seen
pantheon is the aspect of war, atroxx is a corrupted ascended that was bondd to a weapon
All of Pantheon's lore when you read the stories directly are so fucking good. Pantheon's evolution in his lore is sad, inspiring, and cool.
It was the aspect of war that first subjugated aurelion sol so your theory of the comet is quite possible.
If you like comedic voicelines, I recommend you listen to Kled. For childlike wholesomeness, listen to Nunu and Willump.
You should definitely see champion interactions with other champions. The way Pantheon interacts with other champions is awesome
13:50 actually reminds me of Gladiator, when Maximus has the flashbacks of the wheat fields and his slaughtered wife and son, maybe it's just me
P.S.: You skipped in the lines video the final part which is the most funny...
Probably a stretch, but I love how themes tell a story, in the beginning the war chants represent the man climbing Mount tragón, the second part with instruments represent the aspect, the dark part of the theme represents the struggle with the darkin, and the finale is the man being free with the power of a god.
REACCIONASTEA ABSOLUTAMNTE TODO, lore lass lineas de voces. Te has ganado tu like
You should check out unique voice lines for pantheon.
There are some really good ones.
its cool that you can see Aatrox's head on the background.
Pantheons voice lines in a sense do come from a place of despair, but not in humanity. He has witnessed first hand what his gods are really like, uncaring, about those that worship them, and uninterested, in their troubles. Despite seeing that his gods are real he has lost faith in them, faith that they will protect and guide his people. This is why he is so dejected.
Instead of placing his faith in the gods he places it in the hands of humans, in himself. Instead of praying to the heavens, to gods he knows won't care enough to help, he takes action.
This is what makes him one of the best characters in the game, morally, and lore wise.
I would also like to clarify a quote that will probably be taken out of context otherwise. He says "If they kill me, at least I die a man." he does not mean this in a manly sort of bravado sense. He means it in the sense of free will. If he died as the host of Pantheon, then he would not have died of his own will. Now, as a free man, if he dies, he won't die as an Aspect, because of someone else's wishes, he will die as a man, someone who took the conscious choice to stand up for something knowing full well that it could cost him his life.
It's also worth noting that Aspects and Celestials are two separate things. They are lower tier stellar beings that cannot manifest their own physical from, so they must use hosts. Alternatively the Celestials can directly effect the universe either by changing the stars themselves (Aurelion Sol) or by manifesting their own physical forms (Bard, Soraka). However it does seem that in lowering herself to the mortal world, Soraka has lost some level of her power. Ultimately Aurelion and Bard are by far the two most powerful beings in the lore, however at current A Sol is bound to the Aspect after they tricked him, so he lost a certain level of his free will.
the old pantheon was made as a spatan soldier and was quoting the movie
you can see Aaatrox behind Pantheon in Pantheon's splashart
This man gets me hyped!!!
Welcome to Pantheon, the biggest gigachad in League and maybe any game. The man who, upon waking up impaled, *spat at the creature impaling him,* reignited a dead constellation *TWICE* and fights for mankind.
"You will not fail if it is worth it" is my favourite one
PLEASE do Swain next. He's an amazing champion and is very much connected to Arcane.
Strongly suggest reacting to Mordekaiser and Pyke's voicelines - they're the stuff of goosebumps.
For those who haven't noticed, in Pantheons splashart, there is Aatrox's face in the background
If you continue learning about the aspects of Targon you will probably shift your alignment speculation slightly, but the vessels that you haven't fully explored, Diana and Leona, Kayle and Morgana, Zoey and Taric all have something interesting to bring to the table. I won't give a suggestion with whom to continue, given that all of them are interesting in their own right, though I would say Zoey is the least heavy in lore and story but certainly a departure from the rest of all these super serious bunch:D
Hey! A bit late but at the end of the voice lines videos of that channel there are some jokes and funny lines from the champions after the dark screen
worth fighting for worth dying for
"I hate useing shields in games"
I can only imagine how many time's you've died in games if there's shield in the game by god I'm going to use because something that can save me countless time's in battle
Can't wait for Mordekaiser. Heavy metal man my favorite
pantheon and aatrox are pretty similar in their own way, pantheon's freedom was taken away by being controlled twice first by the aspect of war then viego, and aatrox's freedom was taken away by being sealed on the sword.
in his splash art you can see Aatrox's head behind Pantheon
What i like of Atreus Is in a world like runaterra , when humans aré fighting other humans for power ( noxus vs ionia, piltower vs Zion etc) see a Man fighting vs darkins ,demons AND aspects for all mankind Is cool
Also him and aatrox are the two faces of mankind :
Aatrox Is the worst part of a person can become : a person full of anger AND hate
AND Atreus Is the othe side of the coin :
The part of mankind who refuse to give up
you can see aatrox in the background of pantheons splash art
For those who didn't notice, Aatrox's face appears in the background of pantheon's art, looming over him.
While playing, Pantheon is the only champ I never tilt on. You just can't with those voice lines.
If you look closely you can see aatrox eye behind on pantheon
AHHHH EXCITING
