Rhaast is actually one of the strongest darkins according to the evidence we got in LoR, he is almost(if not) on par with Aatrox if he consumes Kayn. So that means Kayn is one of the most strong-willed people in runeterra because he is the only one that resisted the Darkin corruption for so much time.
@@El_Tutel They probably only call him weak, because his artwork makes him look so small and basic, I bet his use of blood magic is crazy though and with shadow magic, rhaast must be an even harder foe for aatrox
There used to be 5 darkins left as we knew. Aatrox, Rhaast, Varus, Valeeva(Varus’ sister) and Xolaani. Now we have tons thanks to LoR. Also Darkin Naafiri is coming to league this year.
The '5 Darkins thing' was back when Darkin were still aliens, not fallen ascended. In short: That part of the lore simply got retconned long time ago and probably for the better.
That part of the lore was retcon originally the darkin where sorta meant to be runteras version of the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse(though I could be wrong about the horsemen part). Also that particular voice line is meant to talk about varus being three people in one 😅
His legendary skin Odyssey Kayn has so much more interactions, especially fun ones when they take over each other and how sad they are. You can check it out its great
Most of Kayn and Rhaast interaction is on move/long move which is not feautred in the champion interactions, but thats when they roast and trashtalk each other the most. The Odyssey Kayn skin is even better at that, their voicelines are just hilarious. And somewhat connected, the funniest lines in game are probably Aatrox roasting Rhaast and Varus. Totally worth checking it out.
33;20 they could show that hexgems are harvested in shurima since they are. and therefore show some acended god warriors.which later became the darkin. but they have to tie it in the right timeline, with all the events they showcasing in the season. i mean the darkin era was houndreds of years, before the events in arcane, so they could technically pull off showing roaming darkin. anywhere in runterra, since for example aatrox roams all over the place and brings destruction everywhere.
The darkin form is usually the most used, its better in most metas and even most scenarios when taking into account your team comp as well as enemy comps
The form that's used more often depends not only on the matchup but there's usually one of them that is stronger in the current meta, in my experience usually Red, but sometimes it's Blue
the darkin used to be representing horsemen of apocalypse (war, death, pestilence), and there are only five darkin left. Then, a big retcon making there are possibly more than 5 darkin that's why rhaast himself wasn't sure because he doesn't knos how many of his kin is still alive. The only darkin champ in league are aatrox, rhaast, and varus, but there will be a new darkin champion named naafiri i assume she will come on april or may.
oh if you want a darkin retcon timeline : aatrox release, darkin are mysterious being, rhaast release, varus now is a darkin, darkin became sentient weapons, varus lore retcon, darkin now are aliens, aatrox rework, darkin now are former ascended, tbd (what will naafiri have in store for us?)
Overall very good reaction for Kayn!! If I came sooner I would have given you the compilation I made, but the 3 voicelines video you reacted to cover 80% of the good stuff! 😃 As some pointed out, you did miss the ''Blade of Millennia'' story, which explains how he got Rhaast. This story also has an ''Odyssey'' alternate universe version called ''The Lure'', which Necrit has covered on his channel. If you ever want to do a part 2 for Kayn, I would recommend the ''Blade of Millennia'' story and the Special interactions video for the Odyssey Skin. The community always point out how good that skin was for its voicelines and visuals! I have a 5 minutes video for the Odyssey Announcer, were Kayn and Rhaast are replacing the announcer in-game during the Odyssey event! They have very funny lines in there lol! For your questions: Frog & Toad : I guess just sub species stuff? Not sure LOL. The 3-5 darkins : The only 3 darkins in game are Rhaast, Aatrox & Varus. When Rhaast says the 5 of us when talking to Varus, he means Kayn, Rhaast, the 2 hunters & Varus. Trivia : The one who designed Kayn did confirm that he's made to embody the ''Edgy anime character''. Base form being like Sasuke, the SA being like Sephiroth & Darkin being monster-like evil. The Odyssey Announcer video (5 minutes long, made by me, only viewable with this link : th-cam.com/video/WUwQAZTrJK4/w-d-xo.html) You can find the Spotlight video on Odyssey special interactions! =P Thank you so much for reacting to Kayn & other champs! Was super fun, have a good day! 🙂
rhaast is been the perma pick for a while, while blue has been kinda neglected and is much more a niche pick into an entire squishy team while rhaast is a more general pick, although blue form is getting buffs soon
It's probably not enough to warrant its own video, but some characters like Teemo have alternate skins that get their own voice lines. Omega Squad Teemo would be one of the first ones I'd recommend from the list.
About Arcane, Riot already confirmed that future seasons will expand away from Piltover & Zaun (with season 2 probably giving us more info about Noxus).
You can react to Urgot for the next champ reaction and there is many of Darkins, lol card game reveal that you can find video about this probably from Necrit
Okay, so answer to your question about transformation in lore is no, in currents timeline he doesn't transformed yet, he is like in game start version. Also if he will transform to Shadow Assassin or Rhaast the other one will be gone permanently.
I'd definitely suggest Kled if you want Yordles, he's generally considered to be one of the goofiest champions in League, and his interactions are hilarious.
A few of these lines are outdated. It still shows Aatrox before rework. Aatrox rework was when they tied Darkin to Shurima ascended. Before that the Darkin where supposed to be Runeteras version of the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse. (At least that’s what they seem to imply I could be wrong)
50:00 when he sais there are 4 i think. its refering to when riot first released aatrox the first darkin, they originally said there are only 5 darkin existing. but over time they kinda redcond it by saying, there are only 5 darkin that people accually know about.or atleast which ever cxame in contact with human so thats why rhaast sais i think,also the 3 of us eh 5 of us. refers to only 3 of the darkin being accually ingame, and to this point when the video came out only these 3 darkin where known about and released in lore. so thats why he sais 3 eh 5 because 2 of them were still unknown. nowadays we know about sometthing like 20 darkin tho due to the LOR game
If you are consider reacting to skins then I recommends Odysseus kayn, it have more interactions between then that I feel like further expands it ,ore than the og skin
there are so many darkins . kayn have released 5 or 6 years ago so its old . the darkin lore has been changed . all darkins name : xolaani ( aatroxs enemy) varus rhaast valeeva(varuss sister) . the darkins in the aatrox's darkin army : taarosh, horazi , joraal, anaakca , styraatu , praa , ibaaros. also there is one other darkin and hes name is cebotaru . in the future the darkin will be released : naafiri
At first riot said there are 5 darkins in the world, afterwards they redconed darkin lore when aatrox was reworked, and now there is more, in league there are 3 currently with one more coming, its Rhaast, Varus, AAtrox, and upcoming champ, thanks to Legends of runeterra we found out about Xolaani, who is healer, mybe she is new champion, and others like tharosh, naganeka, etc...
in old lore darkins were aliens from other world, and thats why there were only 5 of them, but now since they are fallen god warriors their numbers are unknown mybe like 15 or even more noone knows yet but since Legends of Runeterra is expanding darkin lore rn we will soon know more
To be honest, as far as I know, the Darkin _always_ wins in the end. The switching between Kayne and Rhaast is - debatably - canon, in the sense that it is possible as that is essentially the situation Varus is in. Varus is constantly switching between mortal and Darkin control, so it does stand to reason that Kayne and Rhaast can switch back and forth, _but..._ Here is the thing though, Darkin are immortal and their hosts are not. Aatrox, Varus, and Rhaast are the weapons, not the bodies wielding them. So, even if a mortal will can suppress them, those bodies will eventually die and the Darkin are not something you can casually kill. There is a reason they are imprisoned instead of executed, which isn't to say they can't be killed. Rather, killing a Darkin is a titanic struggle that makes Kayne's little story sound like a joke. Darkin are Void corrupted Ascended that were imprisoned by Targonian Aspects, so in terms of power they are something like fourth or fifth on the list. Unaided humans don't even make it _on_ that list. Roughly, it goes: 1) Celestial Dragons (A. Sol) 2) Targonian Aspects 3) Shuriman Ascended 4) Demons 5) Darkin These aren't things that _die._ So Kayne winning against Rhaast is almost certainly temporary, but so long as Rhaast has Kayne as his host, I wouldn't say Kayne is totally dead either. It is just that, eventually, Kayne will pass and Rhasst will continue on.
I love your videos but if I may comment on your thought of Kayn running off and betraying zed. There is another story of him you did not read on the league website. It goes in detail about how he got the scythe and zed sent him to do so. I recommend reading it. *also there are 5 darkin I believe however we only know of 3 atm. In a few months a darkin event will be showcased and the 4th darkin will be revealed. It is confirmed to be a female.
I've said this before, but please read the comics made by Marvel. Riot has them up for free, and since you're already reading on Kayn, "Zed" is a good one to start on
I think you should react to the Riot x Marvel comics about Zed, Shen, Kayn and Jhin. There is a lot of information in these 6 issues. You'll find them on the Universe page in the comics tab. There is also a comic about Garen, Lux and Sylas (5 issues) and one about Ashe (4 issues).
React to Noxus will Rise from Shambits Gaming I think Kayne managed to revert part of the darkin influence on his arm once. You can know more facts of the champions on the wiki in the Trivia and Relations sections If you're reacting to Varus soon, make sure to check his comics. They're really short, one was made as a Prologue to his music video and the other as the epilogue
"aatrox is stronger" In terms of maintaining battle aatrox can fight forever because he has no mana, but rhaast have mana but he can be immortal too due to his healing but rhaast will loose due to running out of mana.
Rhaast is actually one of the strongest darkins according to the evidence we got in LoR, he is almost(if not) on par with Aatrox if he consumes Kayn. So that means Kayn is one of the most strong-willed people in runeterra because he is the only one that resisted the Darkin corruption for so much time.
Finally someone who knows lore and doesn't say bullshit about rhaast being one of the weakest darkins. I had enough of those ignorant league fans
@@El_Tutel They probably only call him weak, because his artwork makes him look so small and basic, I bet his use of blood magic is crazy though and with shadow magic, rhaast must be an even harder foe for aatrox

In my opinion, the 5 of us, mean, Kayn,+Rhaast, Varus, + the 2 hosts Kai and Valmar. This is together 5. :)
The '5 Darkins thing' was back when Darkin were still aliens, not fallen ascended. In short: That part of the lore simply got retconned long time ago and probably for the better.
@@baxland2539 I didn’t realised that was retconned. It’s definitely for the better.

It's Valeeva, Naganeka and Cebotaru. Xolaani isn't mentioned nor created since the The Twilight of the Gods
His legendary skin Odyssey Kayn has so much more interactions, especially fun ones when they take over each other and how sad they are. You can check it out its great
Is that the one that calls Jinx cute?
DID YOU SEE THAT RHAAST?!... Rhaast?...
The newest interactions with the Heartsteel skins are so fun because no matter who is in control they are both still there.
Most of Kayn and Rhaast interaction is on move/long move which is not feautred in the champion interactions, but thats when they roast and trashtalk each other the most. The Odyssey Kayn skin is even better at that, their voicelines are just hilarious. And somewhat connected, the funniest lines in game are probably Aatrox roasting Rhaast and Varus. Totally worth checking it out.
would love to see a part 2 of Kayn, his wiki and his lore and his odyssey and heartsteel interactions
So to make this clear:
Kayn= edglord
Rhaast= Memelord
Check out the Odyssey Kayn skin.
31:03 A frog and toad are both amphibians. Frogs have smooth skin, but toads has rough warts in there skin.
Kayn hates Noxus but he is ironically a noxian. Nocian child conscript turned ionian shadow ninja.
32:46 there is actually a darkin harp somewhere in Zaun, so she might make an appearance. But that still seems unlikely.
33;20 they could show that hexgems are harvested in shurima since they are.
and therefore show some acended god warriors.which later became the darkin.
but they have to tie it in the right timeline, with all the events they showcasing in the season.
i mean the darkin era was houndreds of years, before the events in arcane, so they could technically pull off showing roaming darkin.
anywhere in runterra, since for example aatrox roams all over the place and brings destruction everywhere.
The darkin form is usually the most used, its better in most metas and even most scenarios when taking into account your team comp as well as enemy comps
The form that's used more often depends not only on the matchup but there's usually one of them that is stronger in the current meta, in my experience usually Red, but sometimes it's Blue
Can't wait for you to react to Pyke. I know hes not tied into much story but hes one of my favorites and lore is good. Lil bit of Bilgewater lore!
The reason I personally like Rhaast more is because he refuses to partake in Kayn's edgelording and instead just enjoys himself.
Varus does not have voicelines. He will get some in the next couple months as an update due to a new Darkin releasing.
the darkin used to be representing horsemen of apocalypse (war, death, pestilence), and there are only five darkin left. Then, a big retcon making there are possibly more than 5 darkin that's why rhaast himself wasn't sure because he doesn't knos how many of his kin is still alive. The only darkin champ in league are aatrox, rhaast, and varus, but there will be a new darkin champion named naafiri i assume she will come on april or may.
oh if you want a darkin retcon timeline : aatrox release, darkin are mysterious being, rhaast release, varus now is a darkin, darkin became sentient weapons, varus lore retcon, darkin now are aliens, aatrox rework, darkin now are former ascended, tbd (what will naafiri have in store for us?)

Thank you so much for reacting to Kayn & other champs! Was super fun, have a good day! 🙂
2:00 Thanks to Zed’s training he can wield Rhaast to some degree, but he doesnt have full control.
rhaast is been the perma pick for a while, while blue has been kinda neglected and is much more a niche pick into an entire squishy team while rhaast is a more general pick, although blue form is getting buffs soon
these interactions are just instances of possibilities IF they meet in the battlefield, in this case, Summoner's Rift
in order Rhaast to take over, Kayn need to die, soo in lore Kayn is still in control. Rhaast in game is just to show us what if Rhaast in taking over.
It's probably not enough to warrant its own video, but some characters like Teemo have alternate skins that get their own voice lines. Omega Squad Teemo would be one of the first ones I'd recommend from the list.
There actually should be one Darkin in Zaun, the Darkin insane and chaotic Darkin named Styraatu who is imprisoned inside a harp.
About Arcane, Riot already confirmed that future seasons will expand away from Piltover & Zaun (with season 2 probably giving us more info about Noxus).
Yeah you should really watched the Darkin Lore about Xolanni and Mihira
You can react to Urgot for the next champ reaction and there is many of Darkins, lol card game reveal that you can find video about this probably from Necrit
Okay, so answer to your question about transformation in lore is no, in currents timeline he doesn't transformed yet, he is like in game start version. Also if he will transform to Shadow Assassin or Rhaast the other one will be gone permanently.

nowadays we know about sometthing like 20 darkin tho due to the LOR game
Kled is probably the best yordle you could react to
Do you fancy reacting to Odyssey Kayn? It's much more fun imo
Also rhaast said 5 of us is because he's referring to varus having 3 bodies as one, valmar, khai and varus himself
If you are consider reacting to skins then I recommends Odysseus kayn, it have more interactions between then that I feel like further expands it ,ore than the og skin
there are so many darkins . kayn have released 5 or 6 years ago so its old . the darkin lore has been changed . all darkins name : xolaani ( aatroxs enemy) varus rhaast valeeva(varuss sister) . the darkins in the aatrox's darkin army : taarosh, horazi , joraal, anaakca , styraatu , praa , ibaaros. also there is one other darkin and hes name is cebotaru . in the future the darkin will be released : naafiri
i just forgot naganeka . its also in the aatroxs army (chicken guy)
maybe you can check out aatrox voicelines in legends of runeterra . it gonna help

You should react to Aatrox special interaction to :D
Rip rhaast(his voice actor died😢)
React to odyssey kayn if you want more Rhaast humor
Aatrox special interaction are more humorous i hope you react to those
"aatrox is stronger"
In terms of maintaining battle aatrox can fight forever because he has no mana, but rhaast have mana but he can be immortal too due to his healing but rhaast will loose due to running out of mana.
Kayn is based. Also when Arcane reaction?
I think he already watched arcane without being able to record a reaction video.
Can you please react to evelynn
For yordles do poppy or vex first
He is SO easy, he is just very overtuned and all of his abilities are AOE
