I have a very cool idea for Cho'gath lore. The idea is that Cho'gath is an inert mass of void that found itself in the Kumungu Jungles. It is an infected originator of vastaya that petrified itself to avoid the void from taking over. A Piltovian scientist named Princilla (see what I did there) studied this piece of rock while at the same time studied the beasts of Kumungu Jungles trying to infect them with the rock(I have changed the lore of the Kumungu Jungles to a jungle where every animal and plant in it is a predator who prey on each other except one, Omen, one of the current frozen champions how I have reworked into the Spike of Rebirth, an animal that can produce clones of himself with his back and tail spikes to survive, and if the original dies a clone replaces them). Princilla was accompanied by Helena, a royal guard with a Hextech bow(a mobile champion I have made up), By an exotic animal and vastaya hunter and his loyal feline creature( Rengar's adoptive father in the old role as a new jungler executioner champion) and the hunter's team. Helena rebelled against Princilla and her ways, finding them to hurt the ecosystem and set their camp ablaze becoming the guard of the jungle and respected by the creatures in it. During this fire, the Hunter promises to hunt down Helena while escaping with his men while Princilla manages to activate the stone but gets infected by both the void and vastaya powers of the stone turning into the Jungle Menace( Princilla is a frozen project champion like Omen that I gave a new kit, lore and role in this universe for them to exist). The stone activates and starts to consume everything around it transmuting with everything it absorbed turning into Cho'gath. Cho'gath is a void/vastaya made creature that like the void wants to consume the world but like vastaya it wants to become like the world. Since he is born in the Kumungu Jungles, it has a lot of mouths, fangs, claws and spikes cause of all the predator creatures in its creation vicinity and diet. Now Cho'gath is attracted to eat elemental powers too due to his vastaya nature. And he smells a great source of elemental power nearby. Ixtal. So now Cho'gath is eating his way toward Ixtal, becoming bigger and bigger with each meal with one goal in mind. To eat the whole country

@@ChucktheSpicyChicken oh for sure, but I don't know how many words the cho lore has. And Aphelios abilitys are only 2k words, so you can't add up too many of these non-existances. And these 4 already have almost the 2k.

The best part of the original lore was, considering the summoners were essentially gods from the champions' perspectives, any minor event for the summoners could be a catastrophe to them. Imagine the Noxian invasion of Ionia happened because a Yasuo one-trick kept running it down.
The war in ionia was actually an event way at the beginning IIRC. It's why we have the Ionian boots, because it was based off of whichever side won during the tournament, and it was like a team primarily of ionian champs vs one against noxian champs.
Love how the one canon universe was meant to eliminate confusion yet I've never been more confused than I am now about the story, now everything seems to contradict itself.
Part of that is because of Arcane... And I still say that Riot deciding that making Arcane "official lore" was their biggest mistake for the overall story of Runeterra. They should have kept it separate, like the MCU is separate to the comics. People aren't so stupid that they wouldn't understand that concept after it's been in mainstream pop-culture for over 20 years (between the MCU, the DCAU, "movie versions" of stories, etc.). I like Arcane for what it is, but compared to the deeper lore we've come to expect over the last 7-ish years; it's shallow and overdramatized (like comparing Harry Potter to The Lord of the Rings, it's just a different caliber of story).
All I'm sayin is: Most of the characters being from their own worlds/pocket dimensions made more sense than trying to cram everyone into the same world. Also, alien taric was hilarious.
Arcane did well, so instead of continuing with some changes it became cannon so they can make more and line peoples pockets until it becomes dogshit like marvel.
Tl;dw (contextualizing, ad, and asterisks ends in 11:40 - watch from there for context) 1. Corki - No lore; just old helicopter man. 2. Chogath - Just a hungry void puppy 3. Kogmaw - Another hungry void puppy, but summoned by Malzahar in the world and just left them (he's a bad dog owner) 4. Twitch - Teenage mutant ninja turtle; but instead it's rat and archer. 5. Shaco - Devs: "He's a demon, I guess" anyways too busy with other reworks and Ahri skin to care.
I think it'd be funny if Shaco started showing up in things like, what if he was a fighter in 2XKO? And literally nobody knows anything? Shaco just shows up in everything as a wondering menace with no past or future, just an enigma making people ask the question: "What are you?" But he only laughs, sets a box, does a jig and as he leaves, "The jokes on you!" At this point just embrace his lack of lore. But first they actually need to use him in things, which is probably never going to happen.
Shaco like an evil more mysterious deadpool. instead of cracking jokes he just pops up here and there to spread terror without ever getting a real background.
Basically a horror version of Q from Street Fighter, a guy that nobody knows anything about, have never even seen without that one trenchcoat and mask, appears out of nowhere and whose story revolves around others trying to figure out who the hell is he
Jhin, the Golden Demon Shaco, the Demon Jester Two assassins, who use traps and illusion to perform murder according to their own perverse tastes. But Khada Jhin only used guns after receiving support from the Kashuri artificers. Before then, his implement of choice? A pair of knives.
tht's actually a really cool theory. it would be so fking cool if shaco was just jhin's past self all along. that could also explain why shaco's lore just kinda vanished and forgotten, because 'that jhin' does not exist anymore.
now we just need 2 more past (or future version of Jhin) to make the perfect story. Or 3 more and make Shaco the future Jhin after he learned who to count to five and added another letter to his name
And that would tie into the whole "performance" thing. A jester is a type of performer. He could want to distance himself from the past because he was trying to be "funny", but no one ever laughed. They were all scared and he got all melodramatic. Thus deciding to change his performance goal to "terror" out of some need to be perfect.
Funny how Kog is depicted as creature that consumes but his gameplay is all about spitting and vomiting (we don't talk about passive which blows inside out)
Yeah exactly. I think they like his current kit and whatnot but they want to tie in the idea of the void creatures being consumers in their nature of even being alive, to the past and present so they hit a home run on this idea and it came full circle with belveth
I like to think of kog as a hungry dog who eats some bad stuff and we suffer for it. Khaix represents evolution, velkoz twisted knowledge, while belveth is society and hierarchy and deciet, Chogath will probably be waste and neglect and somehow kaiju inspired , kaisa is obvious that we created the void and that a pure heart is strengthened by it,even using a void entity, in life and completely unfettered, kassadin I’m not familiar with his lore, Malzahar is a human concerned with the growing threat and using it after killing his lover accidentally. I love malz he reminds me of an Alex jones or something
@@flakyfan1496Meh why couldnt they just make him consume stuff by spitting then? Or not idk lol, also ive liked when he was tied to Malzahar, if hes still not.
I always thought of kog'maw's spit as a spiders/flies. They "puke" on their prey to predigest it and then they eat the "pureé" that's left after the poor thing melts
I think it would work, but make it that all the other demons don't know what's happening to their prey, like shaco targets the victims or them. And shaco is the only thing they all fear. So they do to know if he is a demon or not.
@@durttheelder4035eve and tahm are lesser demons, at least compared to Fiddle and Nilah’s demon. Fiddle and ashlash r the only one 10 primal demons we know of. I wouldn’t call nocturne a demon, reworked fiddle took his niche as the representation of fear and did it better. He could be the demon of nightmares or phobias but wouldn’t make sense to have a nightmare demon without a sleep in his kit
Corki appears in a canon cinematic, chogath and kogmaw have one way interactions with some characters and twitch have two ways interactions. Everyone atleast have some recognition except shaco (poor shaco)
LoR is not canon, so those cinematics don't really count as actual appearances :D The only cinematic that can be fully canon is the "Call", but outside of that everything is just a mess
Most of these should get lore, but I would be fine with Shaco not getting one. That would make him stand out as really mysterious, where people don't anything at all about him.
That's not better. He can be mysterious, but there should be a lore explanation on why he is a mystery. Personally, I'd like it if he was a mysterious creation opposite to Galio. The unknown creator "alleged" to have copied Durand, created a killer instead of a protector, but got lost in history, and the mystery supposes Shaco killed his creator, but this shouldn't be confirmed, only implied. Shaco = mysterious deadly creation. That's a theme I'm thinking of that can fit with lore.

A rubber room with rats. And rats make me crazy. Crazy? I was crazy once. They locked me in a room. A rubber room. A rubber room with rats. And rats make me crazy. Crazy? I was crazy once. ...
Him just being a mutated rat that crawled out of the sewers and went on a killing spree is all the story he needs. No reason, no character arc, and certainly no redemption. Just a homicidal freak with a crossbow.
That intro just makes me miss the old lore. Where it was basically a UN with actual power, and nations trying to figure out how to bypass this "UN" to actually gain more power.
Some honorable mentions in my opinion are: Teemo: Like Necrit said he is Yordle in Bandle City, the scouts leader and I guess a sociopath. But from what we know how bandle city works they don't really need a scout-like military, Yordles apperently are immortal, Mortals can't really enter Bandle City without going insane and I don't recall any threat large enough for Bandle to need some kind of military force. It almost feels like the yordles were afraid of Teemo and said to him something like "Wanna join the military? Wanna become a scout? Yes? Go to Runeterra and search for threats ... for eternity." Just so that he is not around. Rammus: We don't know what he is. Ascended? The lost brother of Voli, Orrn and Anivia? Just an armadillo? The only thing we know is that he rolls around Shurima, eats Voidborns like Cheerios and the Shurimans think he is a myth. Amumu: His lore is just three different folktales from the Shurimans. We don't know which one is the orrect one if there even is a correct one.
the original Bandle City lore was that the yordles made their community around a giant unfinished rocket and were dedicated to finishing it to see whats outside the world That why the yordles have mechanical themes (robots, planes, bombs) Teemo and Tristana were the scouts who watched out for enemies that could harm the rocket ship However they made Bandle City become another dimension so Teemo have 0 reason to exist :P
Rammus at least has a canon story, but his being doesn't really have to be explained. His concept is that he's an irrelevant joke character from Shuriman folklore, same with Amumu (not on the fun part though XD)
Where did you even get this from lmao? They were just playing as monsters, its not even an easter egg :DD Vi literally says she was a crab monster, which resembles neither of them
Shaco is a rift watcher. Manifestation of champions anxiety, maliciousness and fear of death. He pokes fun at the fact that they are trapped in endless cycle of death and rebirth.
Cho'gath would make sense as the counterpart to Aurelion something like "in the void of space the creator of worlds forged his stars, not knowing that he awoke what was long asleep, so long in fakt that its hunger for another universe is insatiable. watching and waiting for his meal to be ripe for devouring."
I will always push that Shaco should be a clown in the woods that stabs people and that is his only lore. He's just there. Disconnected from everyone else. Unbother. Moistureized. In his lane. And if you kill him he just comes back. He's not even magic or anything he can just do that. He's not a demon either he just hangs with 'em sometimes.
You showed Shaco's latest lore bit at the end. A toy made for a lonely prince. Then over the years became corrupted by dark magic and now delights in killing others. Using his toys with deadly efficiency. I like this lore much more than the previous obvious Joker lore. A demonic marionette using toys through magic is neat.
A really fun take I saw was the artist Phalanxus who turned Shaco into Viego's equivalent of Gwen, since he's described as the plaything for a lonely prince, making that prince Viego before he met Isolde sounds like a nobrainer
What's funny is just last year, I think, I noticed that when you select Sona in champ select she no longer said "Only you can hear me Summoner, what masterpiece shall we play today?" Instead, now she says "What masterpiece shall we play today?" The change shook me up a bit as a Sona main but I occasionally play champs that still talk to the Summoner like Brand (unless they've VERY recently changed his audio) and Cho'gath
I once thought that Shaco's lore update could tie him in with Ashlesh similar to Evelynns minions in LOR. Where they tried to take their power but ended up bound to them instead. And The Black Rose have sealed demons into toys and dolls before, so the possessed demon puppet idea can still be a thing.
Idk why I love the fact that my main favorite character Shaco is a nobody from nowhere that just suddenly appears, kills people and nobody knows if exists it's like a serial killer hallucination that backstabs people meanwhile the attention is being focused on other champs or other stuff. But I think they should do like a little update to his lore he has such a huge potential to build an awesome and mysterious story
Some quick ideas to fill in the gaps for lore. CORKI: bandlecity airforce. He patrols the borders and gates to make sure no one invades but the twist is that basically no one can get into bandle city anyway so hes just a crazy paranoid nut that the other yordles just love and let him be. Basically, cooky grandpa. SHACO: aspect of joy. Hes the joy youre ashamed to admit you feel i.e. taking pleasure in your enemies misfortune. TWITCH: Just make him one of singed lab rats. Id like to see him be good though. Like he's a defender of the forgetten and the little guy. But thats very far from what he is now. Chogath: can keep that he's a world devourer. say he has an insatiable hunger and the more he eats the more he grows and the worse the hunger gets. If he isnt stopped he will devourer the world one day. KOG: this is weird but link him to cho. They are connected and all that Cho eats gets transportted to Kog to digest. Kog has an unlimted amount of ammo to vomit because Cho is constantly eating.
Idea for Shaco Lore: Shaco was the assasin meant to kill King Viego but failed, he waited for the right moment to try and kill Viego again but he was stuck deep within the castel and had no chance until Viego sets out for the blessed isles. Shaco follows but then the Ruination happens and Shaco becomes the crazy fool we know him. Ur thoughts?
I had a similar idea, but making Shaco a foil for Gwen. Viago's childhood toy embodying his type of love... which, reminder, his love murdered thousands to get his object of affection back without thought of what she would have wanted. So Isold dying to a poisoned dagger was inevitable once he abandoned his childhood toys for young love.
I think Shaco has a lot of potential, he could mirror Gwen's story. He already has a lot of toy maker vibes going on, looking like a puppet and his Shacos-in-a-Box. But instead of having a loving creator like Gwen and avenging him, he was created by Jigsaw from the saw movies, becoming a full blown lunatic when coming to life through the black mist.
I think the idea of shaco being a mysterious nobody could be interesting if they'd pull through with it, making that his story, leaving it vaguely if he exists at all or if he is just some kind of imigination.
This reminds me that I've suggested way back in 2014 where I've suggested that Corki's Lore is to be rewritten as a Time-warped Ace pilot from the future. This was heavily inspired by the Twilight Zone Episode about a WW1 Ace Fighter from the past landing on the future air base of US, and got drifted back in time by a war in the future against the aliens. The lore was similar to CoD BO1 with Corki being a Reznov alike.
The one thing I miss from the old old league is the journals. I love this kind of in-universe storytelling. I remember how Nocturn was teased in it with maintenance staff on the Rift going missing or something like that. All those years I kinda hoped they would bring something like this back instead of just having champions pop out of nowhere
i still remember the"journal of justice " silly news, like blitzcrank dating agency, nidale and janna romancing the same rioter making drama, sivir crashing is expensive car and swain stopping a war to go to sona concert, and kazadhin and malzahar getting into a fisticuff in middle of the street and getting arrested, per example
The most lore Shaco ever got was when a reporter for the Journal of Justice tried to interview him. He was allowed like 5 questions before the jester tried to murder him, so the whole interview has an especially unnerving vibe.
Thank you Necrit for acknowledging that Demacia's lore took a U-turn once Sylas was included. For that reason I'm glad none of Riot Forge's games are canon anymore, particularly The Mageseeker. I don't think Riot will back track on racist Demacia, but at least I can meme about it comfortably now.
I think Shaco is similar to Nila. Both connected to demons, and both are about joy. They could even be sharing same demon patron - demon of joy. And Shacos fate in that case would be wery simular to Nila's, he lost his name and soul in exchange for power and everlasting fun. But unlike Nila he got crasy from it. I can imagine, this whill be fun to watch sinematic with Shaco and Nila battling.
There was someone who made a fan rework of shaco with a pretty interesting backstory. Basically shaco was a puppet made in piltover who has been given life via hextech.
Shaco: The champion with no lore, no pro scene play rate, no taunt or joke animations, outdated kit/animations, no screen time in cinematics, repetitive lines, no interaction with items/other champions/events Yeah no wonder they made him a clown.
I remember being super excited back when Bel'veth came out because of the voice line that she said to cho'gath when you picked him in game. (I don't remember it word for word but I remember she talked about him being something old or ancient.) So I had thought that they were going to update cho's lore to where he was this ancient voidborn, who had existed since or maybe even had participated in the void war, and that because he had been alive for so long and had eaten so much, he could be incredibly intelligent and massive, maybe even bigger that champions like galio or malphite... But yea that never happened.
I could have sworn that cho’gath was the thing “laughing” at Aurelion in his lore. And Sol took that personally and sealed up the void rift and took out a pantheon with it.
It would be cool to see what you could come up with for idea for Shaco. If you would make a lore for Shaco, what would it be? Where would he come from, which places would fit his design and style, what would be a origin that would make sense for the league lore etc.
I've had an idea for a while that Cho'Gath should be bound by celestial magic under Mount Targon and that he's slowly breaking his way out while the mountain preps for the battle against Aurelion Sol
I mean Twitch kinda got a secret story (if it turns out to be true): In Arcane Singed experimented with his early version of shimmer in the early episodes. He demonstrated Silko his progress with an Rat and a cat. After the Rat drank the shimmer he killed the cat and "broke free". The Rat never got mentioned again but in the Twitch Splashart we can see that he has Purple eyes just like Jinx and the other guys who drank the shimmer. So yeah its not cannon but we kinda got hints for him, just like we did with Vander/Warwick. Maybe they will confirm Twitch's story in Season 2 of Arcane.
Ya, I assumed that was Twitches origin story too. I was a little disappointed he wasn't even mentioned later in the season but maybe he gets a cameo the new season.
My headcanon for Chogath is that he is literally the TERROR of the void. He doesn't actually exist, but rather is the fear that people feel when they think of the void, and simultaneously what people imagine when they fear the void; a giant demonic looking animalistic biped, with extra claw like limbs, and spikes growing out of him.
so basically i agree that we need more straight up lore videos. hopefully they will release a new story line that confirms which lore stories are the canon ones and then u could remake ur old videos of each champion
I wish you had another channel where you talked about other stories and lores… for example. I recently started watching VIKINGS again and although I know most of the Norse mythology through god of war and just reading about it… it’d be nice to hear you tell the stories.
I like the idea of keeping Shaco as some unknown folklore figure that people don't know anything about, and if they go searching for answers, they are met with an unfortunate end.
Two of my fav champs made this list xD the rat that found pants and the voidborn that eats. I'll leave which one you think it is up to you. My husband and I have this head canon that Twitch works for Reneta Glasc and she pays him in garbage food. Basically keeping him around as a cheep resource. Lets hope all these guys geta story one day!
Shaco being a puppet steps on Gwen now. Being a creature of folk more could work, i kinda like the idea of him being a demon only one person can see, the person he is hunting at first they just see him at the distance never fully just something is off about were they are looking, getting close and getting more paranoid seeing him in more place, seeing other people as him, eventually attacking people they think are the demon jester. Turning the people he hunts into the killer either getting killed to be stopped or thrown into a padded cell due to their mad ramblings, only to eventually meet the Demon in person when they are all alone an no one will believe them. Psychosis feel seems like it fits him for whatever reason
Honestly, I wish they would take the book route to unify the lore. Ruination was fucking amazing! Would love to see books for sentinels of light, the burning tide, the invasion of Ionian, the battle of icathia, hell I'll even take a book about what's going on with the lunari and solari! Write the books and update the champions around the books, have the books be anchor points for the lore going forward
Its trile and error when you are making stuff and it will require several resets or "star overs" or whatever its called or what you wanna call it. And sometimes you need to take two steps back to take one step forward. And when you have bin working on it for several years the only thing you can do it his the reset button and get then make the changes you want to do and need to do. All this will lead to a much better product in the long run.
the problem is, riot doesn't really put much work to make anything better after the rest, the few mascots and fan favs get some story but everyone else is left in the dust, to make this work, they would actually have to put money and time to let it cook and htey have shown time and time again that they are unwilling to do so, just look at how fast they shut down the forge games when they didn't blow up instantly, they are unwillign to let things develop naturally before they hit the reset
Idk about corki, but easy fix for Twitch and Kog'ma. Twitch was a regular sewer rat that came in comtact with singed/Silco and was contaminated by that purple stuff (forgot what its called), and Kog'ma was an animal from Vastaya that got corrupted by the void. For Shaco it makes sense that he's a Demon just waiting on up date (thought I would like to see him get changed to a Darkin!)
The day we receive actual stories for these champions is the day I may finally rest in peace… if riot doesn’t end the world with the 5000 world ending scenarios and events.
hot Theory: Cho'Gath will be the main antagonist of a void event, taking place in Icathia, just based on them mentioning darkness looming in Icathia, in Cho's Bio

Princilla was accompanied by Helena, a royal guard with a Hextech bow(a mobile champion I have made up), By an exotic animal and vastaya hunter and his loyal feline creature( Rengar's adoptive father in the old role as a new jungler executioner champion) and the hunter's team. Helena rebelled against Princilla and her ways, finding them to hurt the ecosystem and set their camp ablaze becoming the guard of the jungle and respected by the creatures in it. During this fire, the Hunter promises to hunt down Helena while escaping with his men while Princilla manages to activate the stone but gets infected by both the void and vastaya powers of the stone turning into the Jungle Menace( Princilla is a frozen project champion like Omen that I gave a new kit, lore and role in this universe for them to exist). The stone activates and starts to consume everything around it transmuting with everything it absorbed turning into Cho'gath. Cho'gath is a void/vastaya made creature that like the void wants to consume the world but like vastaya it wants to become like the world. Since he is born in the Kumungu Jungles, it has a lot of mouths, fangs, claws and spikes cause of all the predator creatures in its creation vicinity and diet. Now Cho'gath is attracted to eat elemental powers too due to his vastaya nature. And he smells a great source of elemental power nearby. Ixtal.

They should have kept it separate, like the MCU is separate to the comics. People aren't so stupid that they wouldn't understand that concept after it's been in mainstream pop-culture for over 20 years (between the MCU, the DCAU, "movie versions" of stories, etc.).
I like Arcane for what it is, but compared to the deeper lore we've come to expect over the last 7-ish years; it's shallow and overdramatized (like comparing Harry Potter to The Lord of the Rings, it's just a different caliber of story).
All I'm sayin is:
Most of the characters being from their own worlds/pocket dimensions made more sense than trying to cram everyone into the same world. Also, alien taric was hilarious.
Arcane did well, so instead of continuing with some changes it became cannon so they can make more and line peoples pockets until it becomes dogshit like marvel.
Chogath still has ingame voice lines talking to its Summoner.
yeah a few of the unupdated champs do. i miss those lines.
I love the... "AFRAID OF THE DARK........WISE..."
Points for anyone who remembers:
"WHO'S YOUR SUMMONER AND WHAT DOES HE DO?"
@@justanotherLunny i was always fond of: "WHAT IS BEST IN DEATH? TO CRUSH YOUR ENEMIES, SEE THEM DRIVEN BEFORE YOU AND HEAR THE LAMENTATION OF NOOBS!"
He definitely needs vgu.
Tl;dw (contextualizing, ad, and asterisks ends in 11:40 - watch from there for context)
1. Corki - No lore; just old helicopter man.
2. Chogath - Just a hungry void puppy
3. Kogmaw - Another hungry void puppy, but summoned by Malzahar in the world and just left them (he's a bad dog owner)
4. Twitch - Teenage mutant ninja turtle; but instead it's rat and archer.
5. Shaco - Devs: "He's a demon, I guess" anyways too busy with other reworks and Ahri skin to care.
Thank you I was skipping throuhg the video confused as to when it was going to get started
Honestly the same after 10 mins I felt duked T_T
Idk what was Necrit thinking with Twitch though, he 100% exists in the canon :DD
Pretty sure Shaco has lore ,it called Pink Ward lore.
No.
@@Shaco.oh shit oh fuck it's shaco from the hit 2009 game league of legends
ONE DAY I WILL
u wish
XD
Why so serious?
Excuse me sir who are you..? No matter we still hate you -Riot
Jokes on you
I think it'd be funny if Shaco started showing up in things like, what if he was a fighter in 2XKO? And literally nobody knows anything? Shaco just shows up in everything as a wondering menace with no past or future, just an enigma making people ask the question: "What are you?" But he only laughs, sets a box, does a jig and as he leaves, "The jokes on you!" At this point just embrace his lack of lore. But first they actually need to use him in things, which is probably never going to happen.
Shaco like an evil more mysterious deadpool. instead of cracking jokes he just pops up here and there to spread terror without ever getting a real background.
Basically a horror version of Q from Street Fighter, a guy that nobody knows anything about, have never even seen without that one trenchcoat and mask, appears out of nowhere and whose story revolves around others trying to figure out who the hell is he
Make Shaco like Wicked K from Darksiders
Shaco is Waluigi?
And then they put him in arcane and his lore gets completely fixed. 🗿
Jhin, the Golden Demon
Shaco, the Demon Jester
Two assassins, who use traps and illusion to perform murder according to their own perverse tastes.
But Khada Jhin only used guns after receiving support from the Kashuri artificers.
Before then, his implement of choice? A pair of knives.
I see you were cooking here. Interesting theory.
tht's actually a really cool theory. it would be so fking cool if shaco was just jhin's past self all along. that could also explain why shaco's lore just kinda vanished and forgotten, because 'that jhin' does not exist anymore.
now we just need 2 more past (or future version of Jhin) to make the perfect story. Or 3 more and make Shaco the future Jhin after he learned who to count to five and added another letter to his name
shaco also has an ultimate that mimic leblanc passive, creating clones. leblanc is tied to the same organization as jhin
And that would tie into the whole "performance" thing. A jester is a type of performer. He could want to distance himself from the past because he was trying to be "funny", but no one ever laughed. They were all scared and he got all melodramatic. Thus deciding to change his performance goal to "terror" out of some need to be perfect.
Funny how Kog is depicted as creature that consumes but his gameplay is all about spitting and vomiting (we don't talk about passive which blows inside out)
Yeah exactly. I think they like his current kit and whatnot but they want to tie in the idea of the void creatures being consumers in their nature of even being alive, to the past and present so they hit a home run on this idea and it came full circle with belveth
I like to think of kog as a hungry dog who eats some bad stuff and we suffer for it. Khaix represents evolution, velkoz twisted knowledge, while belveth is society and hierarchy and deciet, Chogath will probably be waste and neglect and somehow kaiju inspired , kaisa is obvious that we created the void and that a pure heart is strengthened by it,even using a void entity, in life and completely unfettered, kassadin I’m not familiar with his lore, Malzahar is a human concerned with the growing threat and using it after killing his lover accidentally. I love malz he reminds me of an Alex jones or something
@@flakyfan1496Meh why couldnt they just make him consume stuff by spitting then? Or not idk lol, also ive liked when he was tied to Malzahar, if hes still not.
I always thought of kog'maw's spit as a spiders/flies. They "puke" on their prey to predigest it and then they eat the "pureé" that's left after the poor thing melts
Kog is cannonically a bulimic
Would love if they reimagined Shaco as a demon a part of the Fiddlesticks, Evelynn, Tham Kench, Nocturn circle.
Some kind of trickster demon that toys with his prey before killing them from behind would be super cool.
boring ngl
I think it'd be cooler if he was a lessrr demon like an azakana like the thing yone is fighting
I think it would work, but make it that all the other demons don't know what's happening to their prey, like shaco targets the victims or them. And shaco is the only thing they all fear. So they do to know if he is a demon or not.
@@durttheelder4035eve and tahm are lesser demons, at least compared to Fiddle and Nilah’s demon. Fiddle and ashlash r the only one 10 primal demons we know of. I wouldn’t call nocturne a demon, reworked fiddle took his niche as the representation of fear and did it better.
He could be the demon of nightmares or phobias but wouldn’t make sense to have a nightmare demon without a sleep in his kit
Corki appears in a canon cinematic, chogath and kogmaw have one way interactions with some characters and twitch have two ways interactions. Everyone atleast have some recognition except shaco (poor shaco)
I guess we should have seen it coming, Shaco himself warned us: "The JOKES ON YOU"
LoR is not canon, so those cinematics don't really count as actual appearances :D
The only cinematic that can be fully canon is the "Call", but outside of that everything is just a mess
Before I watch the video here are my predictions
Shaco, Cho’gath, Kog’maw, Corki, Rammus
Rammus still has the story of being Brakern from Shurima
Close its twitch not ramnus
@@vatsalsrivastava5649 I don't think that's actually cannon but maybe I'm wrong
@@vatsalsrivastava5649 What? He was always an Armordillo. When did they make him brackern?
@@BoneWalker never
Most of these should get lore, but I would be fine with Shaco not getting one. That would make him stand out as really mysterious, where people don't anything at all about him.
There are a few characters who have that already, and they don't really use that as an excuse to not have story themselves
That's basically Rammus, and he's still considered to have lore
That's not better. He can be mysterious, but there should be a lore explanation on why he is a mystery. Personally, I'd like it if he was a mysterious creation opposite to Galio. The unknown creator "alleged" to have copied Durand, created a killer instead of a protector, but got lost in history, and the mystery supposes Shaco killed his creator, but this shouldn't be confirmed, only implied. Shaco = mysterious deadly creation. That's a theme I'm thinking of that can fit with lore.

Him just being a mutated rat that crawled out of the sewers and went on a killing spree is all the story he needs. No reason, no character arc, and certainly no redemption. Just a homicidal freak with a crossbow.
twitch has one of my fav voicelines in game , i mean how can you beat the I DEMAND A SANDWICH!!11!!!!1!!
That intro just makes me miss the old lore.
Where it was basically a UN with actual power, and nations trying to figure out how to bypass this "UN" to actually gain more power.
yee I agree. The old lore could have "worked". The new lore basically rewites out the game people play
“UN with actual power” Savage.
UN?
I didnt like it it just made champs irrelevant cuz who cares about the void and targon if the summoners are these omni-potent beings.
@@veonncaines7063United Nations imguessing.
I did not expect BlushySpicy art to be in necrit video, really gave me a chuckle with family guy teemo
right!? i was thinking the same thing!
I feel that the reason Shaco hasn't got any lore is because they still don't know how it should be pronounced.
It's pronounced Shaco, c'mon guys.
more like Shaq and less like Shake
the true chaos of shaco...shaq-oh? Shay-co? ow, is that a dagge-
well the "a" is pronounced like your twisting the dagger in someone. ShaaaAaA co
Well if it's an anagram of "chaos" then it can only resemble that so it has to be "shayco" like how chaos is more like "chayos"
As a Shaco main I can confirm he does have a story.
His story is; Behind you.
13:32 Blushy Spicy is an... interesting choice of artist. And specifically that image of Teemo. Very interesting
Some honorable mentions in my opinion are:
Teemo: Like Necrit said he is Yordle in Bandle City, the scouts leader and I guess a sociopath. But from what we know how bandle city works they don't really need a scout-like military, Yordles apperently are immortal, Mortals can't really enter Bandle City without going insane and I don't recall any threat large enough for Bandle to need some kind of military force. It almost feels like the yordles were afraid of Teemo and said to him something like "Wanna join the military? Wanna become a scout? Yes? Go to Runeterra and search for threats ... for eternity." Just so that he is not around.
Rammus: We don't know what he is. Ascended? The lost brother of Voli, Orrn and Anivia? Just an armadillo? The only thing we know is that he rolls around Shurima, eats Voidborns like Cheerios and the Shurimans think he is a myth.
Amumu: His lore is just three different folktales from the Shurimans. We don't know which one is the orrect one if there even is a correct one.
They gotta define what a yordle actually is.... that's gonna be messy
the original Bandle City lore was that the yordles made their community around a giant unfinished rocket and were dedicated to finishing it to see whats outside the world
That why the yordles have mechanical themes (robots, planes, bombs)
Teemo and Tristana were the scouts who watched out for enemies that could harm the rocket ship
However they made Bandle City become another dimension so Teemo have 0 reason to exist :P
Rammus at least has a canon story, but his being doesn't really have to be explained. His concept is that he's an irrelevant joke character from Shuriman folklore, same with Amumu (not on the fun part though XD)
In Arcane there is a mention of Cho’Gath and Kog’Maw when Vi talks to Caitlyn about a game she played with Jinx when they where young
what episode is this?
@@InsultingInsinuation episode 8 around 14:40
Where did you even get this from lmao? They were just playing as monsters, its not even an easter egg :DD
Vi literally says she was a crab monster, which resembles neither of them
Shaco is like Cotton-eye Joe, Where did he come from? Where did he go? Where did he come from, Cotton-eye Shaco.
Shaco is like Mordekaiser or Fiddlesticks, If he ever gets any lore, it is impossible to make it bad, because of the amazing concept he is based on.
Shaco is a rift watcher. Manifestation of champions anxiety, maliciousness and fear of death. He pokes fun at the fact that they are trapped in endless cycle of death and rebirth.
Honestly I would love to see you talk about the lore of old champions before the rework, like Warwick, Kayle, Morgana etc
After the 10 minute buildup I completly forgot what the Video was supposed to be about.
But I was invested in every second of it.
Video starts at 11:00
Yo thank you
I don't care for all that other shit
You know you're listening to the League Loremaster when you get an 11 minute explanation to get to the top 5 part.
Cho'gath would make sense as the counterpart to Aurelion something like "in the void of space the creator of worlds forged his stars, not knowing that he awoke what was long asleep, so long in fakt that its hunger for another universe is insatiable. watching and waiting for his meal to be ripe for devouring."
Yeah but still make him weaker than ASol. 🗿
10min into the 20 min vid and not 1 of these 5 champions mentioned 😭
Tf was bro yapping abt during the first 10min ?
10 min intro 🤣
@@OceanPulsew the usual
Bel'Veth does tell Cho Gath and Kog stuff in her voice lines so they technically are canon !
I mean, having voicelines interactions doesnt mean that smth is canon, and lol cho still has summoner references in his lines lol.
I will always push that Shaco should be a clown in the woods that stabs people and that is his only lore.
He's just there. Disconnected from everyone else. Unbother. Moistureized. In his lane.
And if you kill him he just comes back.
He's not even magic or anything he can just do that.
He's not a demon either he just hangs with 'em sometimes.
You showed Shaco's latest lore bit at the end.
A toy made for a lonely prince. Then over the years became corrupted by dark magic and now delights in killing others. Using his toys with deadly efficiency.
I like this lore much more than the previous obvious Joker lore. A demonic marionette using toys through magic is neat.
A really fun take I saw was the artist Phalanxus who turned Shaco into Viego's equivalent of Gwen, since he's described as the plaything for a lonely prince, making that prince Viego before he met Isolde sounds like a nobrainer
What's funny is just last year, I think, I noticed that when you select Sona in champ select she no longer said "Only you can hear me Summoner, what masterpiece shall we play today?" Instead, now she says "What masterpiece shall we play today?" The change shook me up a bit as a Sona main but I occasionally play champs that still talk to the Summoner like Brand (unless they've VERY recently changed his audio) and Cho'gath
I love the Idea of a mugshot while wearing a hood and bandana over your mouth xD 15:32
I once thought that Shaco's lore update could tie him in with Ashlesh similar to Evelynns minions in LOR. Where they tried to take their power but ended up bound to them instead. And The Black Rose have sealed demons into toys and dolls before, so the possessed demon puppet idea can still be a thing.
Idk why I love the fact that my main favorite character Shaco is a nobody from nowhere that just suddenly appears, kills people and nobody knows if exists it's like a serial killer hallucination that backstabs people meanwhile the attention is being focused on other champs or other stuff. But I think they should do like a little update to his lore he has such a huge potential to build an awesome and mysterious story
Some quick ideas to fill in the gaps for lore.
CORKI: bandlecity airforce. He patrols the borders and gates to make sure no one invades but the twist is that basically no one can get into bandle city anyway so hes just a crazy paranoid nut that the other yordles just love and let him be. Basically, cooky grandpa.
SHACO: aspect of joy. Hes the joy youre ashamed to admit you feel i.e. taking pleasure in your enemies misfortune.
TWITCH: Just make him one of singed lab rats. Id like to see him be good though. Like he's a defender of the forgetten and the little guy. But thats very far from what he is now.
Chogath: can keep that he's a world devourer. say he has an insatiable hunger and the more he eats the more he grows and the worse the hunger gets. If he isnt stopped he will devourer the world one day.
KOG: this is weird but link him to cho. They are connected and all that Cho eats gets transportted to Kog to digest. Kog has an unlimted amount of ammo to vomit because Cho is constantly eating.
You just cooked here with the singed lab rat, because singed really had a lab rat in arcane so it's basically what they'll be going for lawl
Whaaat?? A lore video from Necrit??
Thats a miracle!
Idea for Shaco Lore: Shaco was the assasin meant to kill King Viego but failed, he waited for the right moment to try and kill Viego again but he was stuck deep within the castel and had no chance until Viego sets out for the blessed isles. Shaco follows but then the Ruination happens and Shaco becomes the crazy fool we know him. Ur thoughts?
Urthot, interesting skin for Urgot
I had a similar idea, but making Shaco a foil for Gwen. Viago's childhood toy embodying his type of love... which, reminder, his love murdered thousands to get his object of affection back without thought of what she would have wanted.
So Isold dying to a poisoned dagger was inevitable once he abandoned his childhood toys for young love.
I think Shaco has a lot of potential, he could mirror Gwen's story. He already has a lot of toy maker vibes going on, looking like a puppet and his Shacos-in-a-Box. But instead of having a loving creator like Gwen and avenging him, he was created by Jigsaw from the saw movies, becoming a full blown lunatic when coming to life through the black mist.
I think the idea of shaco being a mysterious nobody could be interesting if they'd pull through with it, making that his story, leaving it vaguely if he exists at all or if he is just some kind of imigination.
This reminds me that I've suggested way back in 2014 where I've suggested that Corki's Lore is to be rewritten as a Time-warped Ace pilot from the future. This was heavily inspired by the Twilight Zone Episode about a WW1 Ace Fighter from the past landing on the future air base of US, and got drifted back in time by a war in the future against the aliens. The lore was similar to CoD BO1 with Corki being a Reznov alike.
The one thing I miss from the old old league is the journals. I love this kind of in-universe storytelling. I remember how Nocturn was teased in it with maintenance staff on the Rift going missing or something like that. All those years I kinda hoped they would bring something like this back instead of just having champions pop out of nowhere
It'd be cool if Shack was a demon of insanity and not knowing what is real. A Demon like that would bee cool.
i still remember the"journal of justice " silly news, like blitzcrank dating agency, nidale and janna romancing the same rioter making drama, sivir crashing is expensive car and swain stopping a war to go to sona concert, and kazadhin and malzahar getting into a fisticuff in middle of the street and getting arrested, per example
They will make Shaco come from Camavor. That is my guess.
0:44 OMG! War Spell Team Tatics RPG
I do hope you make more of these I especially like how you have this long history with the lore behind the lore it's very lore
*REYN, PLEASE! GET THE YOINKY SPLOINKY!*
We might get to see a bit of twitch in Arcane season 2
Yeah exactly and there was a rat in a silco scene, im still sad about that cat. 😭
They should make a horror game featuring various demons and also shaco, that would be pretty epic
Just started listening to ruination book. Was pleasantly to see Necrit as lore master in Veigos court. Didn't know you were cannon in the lore
The most lore Shaco ever got was when a reporter for the Journal of Justice tried to interview him. He was allowed like 5 questions before the jester tried to murder him, so the whole interview has an especially unnerving vibe.
*Jhin:* I would have given him four…
Thank you Necrit for acknowledging that Demacia's lore took a U-turn once Sylas was included. For that reason I'm glad none of Riot Forge's games are canon anymore, particularly The Mageseeker.
I don't think Riot will back track on racist Demacia, but at least I can meme about it comfortably now.
I think Shaco is similar to Nila. Both connected to demons, and both are about joy. They could even be sharing same demon patron - demon of joy.
And Shacos fate in that case would be wery simular to Nila's, he lost his name and soul in exchange for power and everlasting fun. But unlike Nila he got crasy from it.
I can imagine, this whill be fun to watch sinematic with Shaco and Nila battling.
There was someone who made a fan rework of shaco with a pretty interesting backstory. Basically shaco was a puppet made in piltover who has been given life via hextech.
Shaco: The champion with no lore, no pro scene play rate, no taunt or joke animations, outdated kit/animations, no screen time in cinematics, repetitive lines, no interaction with items/other champions/events
Yeah no wonder they made him a clown.
I remember being super excited back when Bel'veth came out because of the voice line that she said to cho'gath when you picked him in game. (I don't remember it word for word but I remember she talked about him being something old or ancient.) So I had thought that they were going to update cho's lore to where he was this ancient voidborn, who had existed since or maybe even had participated in the void war, and that because he had been alive for so long and had eaten so much, he could be incredibly intelligent and massive, maybe even bigger that champions like galio or malphite... But yea that never happened.
Love how Necrit can stretch the intro longer than the main part of the video
I could have sworn that cho’gath was the thing “laughing” at Aurelion in his lore. And Sol took that personally and sealed up the void rift and took out a pantheon with it.
The first lore edition of having Summoners gives me very "Chaotic" (2006) vibes
Ram Steed has good lore with shaco dont forget their cool interview.
It would be cool to see what you could come up with for idea for Shaco. If you would make a lore for Shaco, what would it be? Where would he come from, which places would fit his design and style, what would be a origin that would make sense for the league lore etc.
I've had an idea for a while that Cho'Gath should be bound by celestial magic under Mount Targon and that he's slowly breaking his way out while the mountain preps for the battle against Aurelion Sol
I believe that there's a plan for everything, including Shaco and others, and we should wait for them.
I mean Twitch kinda got a secret story (if it turns out to be true):
In Arcane Singed experimented with his early version of shimmer in the early episodes. He demonstrated Silko his progress with an Rat and a cat. After the Rat drank the shimmer he killed the cat and "broke free". The Rat never got mentioned again but in the Twitch Splashart we can see that he has Purple eyes just like Jinx and the other guys who drank the shimmer. So yeah its not cannon but we kinda got hints for him, just like we did with Vander/Warwick. Maybe they will confirm Twitch's story in Season 2 of Arcane.
Ya, I assumed that was Twitches origin story too. I was a little disappointed he wasn't even mentioned later in the season but maybe he gets a cameo the new season.
My headcanon for Chogath is that he is literally the TERROR of the void. He doesn't actually exist, but rather is the fear that people feel when they think of the void, and simultaneously what people imagine when they fear the void; a giant demonic looking animalistic biped, with extra claw like limbs, and spikes growing out of him.
Shaco would fit in ionian demon myth near the lands of jhin as their deity 😂
so basically i agree that we need more straight up lore videos. hopefully they will release a new story line that confirms which lore stories are the canon ones and then u could remake ur old videos of each champion
“And when everything is cannon… nothing will be!”
Reading that story, old lore of shaco, it seems to me that he like an "angel" of death but in his example a demon Jester of death.
I remember when lee sin was officially a burnout buisnessman who had lost his eyes and went to a shaolin temple to find meaning to his life
It's been so long, felt nostalgic. I confess, I watched the Raid Shadow legend ad.
I wish you had another channel where you talked about other stories and lores… for example. I recently started watching VIKINGS again and although I know most of the Norse mythology through god of war and just reading about it… it’d be nice to hear you tell the stories.
I like the idea of keeping Shaco as some unknown folklore figure that people don't know anything about, and if they go searching for answers, they are met with an unfortunate end.
Two of my fav champs made this list xD the rat that found pants and the voidborn that eats. I'll leave which one you think it is up to you.
My husband and I have this head canon that Twitch works for Reneta Glasc and she pays him in garbage food. Basically keeping him around as a cheep resource. Lets hope all these guys geta story one day!
imagine twitch comes in arcane and ekko take him as his pet like he mentions in his diolag
goddamn i genuinely hope Shaco gets the lore he deserves one day
Lmao at 0:30, I thought my league opened suddenly. If perfectly fits by scale and is at the center of my screen.
Shaco being a puppet steps on Gwen now. Being a creature of folk more could work, i kinda like the idea of him being a demon only one person can see, the person he is hunting at first they just see him at the distance never fully just something is off about were they are looking, getting close and getting more paranoid seeing him in more place, seeing other people as him, eventually attacking people they think are the demon jester. Turning the people he hunts into the killer either getting killed to be stopped or thrown into a padded cell due to their mad ramblings, only to eventually meet the Demon in person when they are all alone an no one will believe them. Psychosis feel seems like it fits him for whatever reason
Riot: Rammus we are going to give you lore but its explains nothing besides you're from Shurima.
Rammus: Okay.
This fell like a classic 2019 Necrot video and im all in for it.
Honestly, I wish they would take the book route to unify the lore. Ruination was fucking amazing! Would love to see books for sentinels of light, the burning tide, the invasion of Ionian, the battle of icathia, hell I'll even take a book about what's going on with the lunari and solari! Write the books and update the champions around the books, have the books be anchor points for the lore going forward
At this point you should be hired to work for the lore and story telling department
please more lore catch up videos like that or maybe cover some champs again which got maybe more context through new champs or so
Imagine if Shaco was just a recurring nightmare Aurelion Sol, has.
Shaco should be one of the main primordial demons, since Shaco can be an acronym for Chaos
Its trile and error when you are making stuff and it will require several resets or "star overs" or whatever its called or what you wanna call it. And sometimes you need to take two steps back to take one step forward. And when you have bin working on it for several years the only thing you can do it his the reset button and get then make the changes you want to do and need to do. All this will lead to a much better product in the long run.
the problem is, riot doesn't really put much work to make anything better after the rest, the few mascots and fan favs get some story but everyone else is left in the dust, to make this work, they would actually have to put money and time to let it cook and htey have shown time and time again that they are unwilling to do so, just look at how fast they shut down the forge games when they didn't blow up instantly, they are unwillign to let things develop naturally before they hit the reset
Riot has the oportunity with Twitch to introduce a Skaven-like race on the lore
Idk about corki, but easy fix for Twitch and Kog'ma. Twitch was a regular sewer rat that came in comtact with singed/Silco and was contaminated by that purple stuff (forgot what its called), and Kog'ma was an animal from Vastaya that got corrupted by the void. For Shaco it makes sense that he's a Demon just waiting on up date (thought I would like to see him get changed to a Darkin!)
The day we receive actual stories for these champions is the day I may finally rest in peace… if riot doesn’t end the world with the 5000 world ending scenarios and events.
that's the eventual shame of world ending scenarios.... they spiral out of control and end up being silly when they were first kinda cool
hot Theory: Cho'Gath will be the main antagonist of a void event, taking place in Icathia, just based on them mentioning darkness looming in Icathia, in Cho's Bio
I'm surprised you didn't mention the old interview with shaco from waaaaay back when.
