Hwei's line "After all, art requires a certain ... empathy" mirrors Jhin's quote "Art requires a certain cruelty". Wouldn't be surprised if they have a certain rivalry in their philosophy, thats explicated in more voicelines.
@Fahklevi lol, Actually had an Idea for a J4 Legendary skin called Son of Jarvan IV. Basically a "what if skin" where it's actually J5, And the Ult would be Shyvana's dragons decent, but instead of a full dragon, he's a dragon man with wings since he would only be 1/4 dragon. So yeah, demaciraaaaaww!
Surprised you didn't think of anything about that last quote about Hwei, "art requires a certain...empathy" which closely resembles Jhin's quote "art requires a certain...cruelty". With how they explained Hwei following his master principles then branching out, it would be cool if it turns out that Hwei was once Jhin's student.
Sounds like at the very least they might be opposed forces. Though they could also just be rivals and his idea of empathy isn't kind at all. Like he feels your pain but that is where his art shines. He's probably a good guy Jhin though.
Thats 1 to 1 damn. Additionally I was thinking oh a new cult of artists? We don't really have any right now. But jhin absolutely fits the bill. Based on how it was phrased it would be surprising if he had 180d his teachings but absolutely could and it would be a sick reveal
I suppose it wouldn't be so weird, would it? Some mammals do lay eggs, and us humans are mammals, so if Vastayans are basically animal versions of humans, it's entirely possible for some of their species to produce eggs.

Something they could do for this ink mage to reflect his art is maybe needing to press 2 buttons to use a spell. Like each spell has an effect but you can combine them into one. It would fit an artistic champion since you have a lot of possibilities (which is immagination or something like that)
King jarvan: my son i told you to SLAY the drgon Prince jarvan : i did slay the dragon this is his daughter Shyvana : we will name him Jarvan King jarvan : very well
It would be incredibly hilarious if the dragon egg is Shyvana and J4, especially as old as they're models and voice lines are outdated. But I believe probably something different.... Wish it was a new bird champion but FINE riot...
Good updates and congrats to Jarv and Shyv! I hope they ;do add a little more contrasting colors to Skarner as he's really hard to see against the same colored background (gray/green).
At this point riot should just hire Necrit (or at least sponsor in some way if they don't) for all the amazing content and explanations he makes for the LoL universe.
I mean, senna was reading a J4 and Shyvana romance novel in a star guardian animation. Riot was probably hinting on it. same goes for the time Yasuo was reading a romance novel of Garen and Katarina, the two horniest couple on the rift...
If that egg is shyvana's child, I'll go back to league. His entire kit needs to be like, super weak, but he has the STRONGEST ULTIMATE OF ALL: a mix between jarvan and shyvana's ultimate: a dragonic cataclism
Hwei feels like he's going to be League's Invoker where you can use his three skills and then his ult to "paint" different spells depending on the combination of normal skills you use. There's something about the specific use of red, blue, and yellow in the main swirl of paint in his teaser image that makes me feel like I'm not too off the cuff with this theory. After all a huge part of paint / ink as an art media is additive mixing which uses red, blue, and yellow as three primary colors (including black and white but those are shades and not TECHNICALLY colors) to mix into every single other color you can imagine. If he is, then I think I have a new favorite champion. If he isn't, I still have a new champion to add to my favorites among Sett and Sona.
Heard a theory that Hwei is responsible for releasing Fiddlesticks. In Fiddlesticks bio or short story it is mentioned a mage in a tower freed him and the first Hwei teaser was his tower in which he "exiled" himself or rather stayed in because of depression. If Hwei's magic allows him to turn his imagination into reality through paintings if he painted Fiddlesticks according to old Ionian myths that may have freed him. That would also be the reason why Hwei is depressed/ doesn't want to/ can't leave his tower as he is the reason for Fiddlesticks current terrors.
The mage releasing fiddle is one of multiple possible stories that the people in valoran (leagues universe) tell to explain fiddlesticks existence. However fiddle is just a primordial demon that existed since the start of time.
@@dustinz7131 I know and if you read his bio you should know that Fiddle was "away" for centuries. He got sealed by someone or something and somewhat recently he got released from this imprisonment. That could have been Hwei
I hope so badly that the baby dragon champ is actually Jarvan and Shyvana's son. Also for the people commenting about the mage situation in Demacia, for the love of god at the very least watch the cutscenes from the Mageseeker game, it more or less resolves that specific issue.
I hope they give different rock throws like Qiyana's Q If Skarner gets a rock from a bush it will entangle enemies hit, if he gets it from the water it will make a splash and get a bigger aoe and a rock from the heart can do extra damage with hp scaling either the enemy's or Skarner's hp Just an idea to make him more fun and not too flat
Thats just Qyianas thing but switching around the effects and replacing aoe stealth field with aoe damage field. Qyiana is specifically a multi-element master(Well, honestly I think shes overselling herself. Compare how she uses the elements to how Milio or Zyra do. Shes just throwing elemental energy around like book 1 bionicals, not actually connecting with them. She has mastery, but zero creativity) thats why she has her terrain stuff. Skarner, on the other hand, is strictly an earth elemental. He doesnt do water, he doesnt do plants, he does rocks. And even if he picks up a rock from the river, or one that has grass on it... he doesn't have any ability to affect the water or plants on the rock to make things happen. Now that isnt saying the idea has no merit, just that copying Qyiana's terrain points is a bad fit. Instead I would think soil, solid rock, and worked stone would be better. Soil would be just all ground, and I imagine its a quickly cast short ranged slow that trades accessibility for effectiveness. Rock would be from walls, and would be the high cc, medium damage one, stunning those hit by it. And worked stone would be from towers and base walls, doing higher damage and stunning the first target hit, but having a larger aoe slow. Or just drop the third one and use the first two.
I love the addition to choose supported languages, not because I understand them, but because they can sound more serious and passionate than English VOs. Zoe being less obnoxious for example.
I think the small dragon could be something like a baby inviolus vox. It could be one of aurelions brothers thus the royalty and aurelion could be making a special haven for them
I feel like the EGG is directly after mageseeker. Like they banged then shyvana run away. She probably went somewgere to make a dragon heaven. So it goes ovef all the points mentioned like it being the heir, being in a safe space but away from home.
I started playing league of legends almost an month ago because I wanted to interact more with my friends, and now seeing this Ink mage and the quickplay feature made me motivated to get better an the game
That's actually really sweet, I hope you can improve as much as you want :) It helps to watch Challenger gameplay (at least it does imo). Personally I find that simply watching how/why Challengers play the way they do helps me more than those "advice" or "coaching" videos, because a lot of them are quite specific. If Challenger gameplay is too brainy for you at first, you should start with Diamond+ gameplay videos, since they are a lot easier to digest but still complex enough to learn from. Also, finding a specific player can help you improve (for example, following the gameplay of the Rank 1 Annie in the world). If coaching videos work best for you after all, then go for it! Even as you're getting better at League, always stop to remind yourself that it is just a game after all, and not to beat yourself up too much for not being as good as you want to be yet. I find that a lot of people tilt easily because they're not good, but they don't want to admit it so they end up flaming their team and losing mental. Always accept that you can improve no matter what your skill level is, and always focus on how you can get better without burning yourself out. I wish you the best of luck! ^^
@@nomoretwitterhandles wow thanks dude! At the moment I am trying to play just four characters I liked their gameplay the most (Sett, Gnar, Kindred and Veigar) and now reflecting about my games... I think I got too much on the offensive and died quickly (my experience with rouge-likes continues to haunt me lol) and thanks for the video advices! It's being kinda hard for me to find good tutorials on characters (as an example, when I play with kindred I just farm and almost never go on the offensive, and when I go I die) oh and... Can you recommend an player that mains those I said on the start to follow them? I barely find any content that explain how to play them...
Skarner actually looks fun! A lot of new champions have been a miss for me, but the reworks have otherwise been awesome. Still miss old galio though :(
Hwei and Jhin MUST have beef with each other. Or at least not in terms with each other's presence because of their contrasting philosophies. Skarner looks so dope! I like the engage with the Sion-esque dash. Got another champ to look out for when in lane. Lastly, yeah, I think those two went down with each other. Donkey (from 'Skrek') would be proud.
Skarner's W also seem to grant him additional shield when it deals damage to enemy champions, can't wait to see him become the new unkillable god of Aram after Udyr in the last VGU
Before Skanner rework: Every laner: -Bushes not safe! Wards make them safe! -Wall are safe! You can flash over walls to escape! After Skanner rework: Every laner: OH GOD OH F***!!! IT’S COMING OUT OF BUSHES, WALLS, AND THE GROUND!!! NO WHERE IS SAFE!!!? Edit: Kayn doesn’t count cause you know if he’s coming and from where. You don’t with a giant wall-walking spider throwing boulders at you and pinning you to the wall.
@@idcaoi think they could add the dirt splashes at the end of his path, but there's also a possibility that he's gonna be much slower than kayn is in the walls
@@idcao that is true i guess, they probably should add an indicator (visual or oral) to warn smd if skarner is coming, although talk and zeri don't have those so the chance of them adding one is quite negligible.
Im really happy about them opening access to the language packs. For people studying a foreign language, it can be a great way to learn new vocab and phrases.
His ult would be cool if it started a brief charge up animation and whomever he was touching, he suppressed as well as himself at the end. That way he can't reposition himself but he still gets a suppress with more skill expression based on how he uses his other abilities
I can see Hwei having a spray paint can like Jet Set Radio character (for his urban theme); a graphics tablet (as modern theme); a paint canvas (for a painter theme like a renaissance); a sketch book (for pencil art theme); a school notebook (for doodles and School theme skin); ink paint and scrolls (for a Oriental theme) and magic/high tech pen where he draw on air (for both magic and sci fi themed skins). It can even be a Darkin skin where the pen is mightier than the sword quote would be played. This are mostly my theories, if he ever becomes a successful new hero.
Damn, Jarvin actually hit that dragussy huh 😂 Though knowing the Demacian politics, whatever the offspring is, it'll be considered illegitimate/a bastard.
I know the baby dragon won't be Shyvana and Jarvan love child, but god I wish they were, I always thought that would be amazing But wouldn't make sense a half dragon and a human make a normal dragon But at the end of the day, we're getting a new dragon, and I'm hyped af, Riot already gave me a present with the Aurelion Sol rework, we just need the Shyvana one to complete the three fire boys in the rift!
Riot: "smol and smoldering" Me with my short attention span:"oh probably like a mommy Fuemigo or somethin like the poro king but smol and fire" Necrit: "J4 did the deed with the dragon"
If Hwei is what we think they are, it could lead to a realm of cool possibilities. Imagine if they made skins with custom animations and voice lines for Hwei and Jhin where they switch up roles, Jhin as a caring and soft artist, Hwei as the maniac.
i think in the adc teaser, when it says that something is lurking, watching, etc, it means just and ult that's and air attack something like kog'maw but on steroids. Because it talks about "creat safe space" and so.
Dota 2 got a hero that creates his own spells, like his first, second and third spells are element symbols and his ultimate creates the spell how you combine them, so he got access to 10 spells. So the inkmage can kind of do the same thing, he got 3 strokes of art that mix with eachother and form spells.
Could the dragon heir be for Camavor, now that the curse from viago has been lifted maybe Camavor is actually ayble to have its kingdom ? Ps: I haven't read the Runation book yet so I don't know if that would debunk this.
the best thing here is quickplay being added. One of my favorite things in HotS because I can just play who I want and when I play league now half the time I don't get to do that
If shyvana and jarvan happened to have a kid, wouldn't that kid be even less dragon-looking than shyvana herself? I personally want the new champion be its own thing separated from those two, it would be really weird otherwise. Not to mention they said they are small for their kind, but that doesn't mean small for an average human, wich would be further proof the new creature champ isn't related to them.
Nos technikailag shyvana nem egy fél sárkány mivel nincsen neki emberi génjei. Csak emberi formát tud felvenni. Szóval ha a gondolkodás módom helyes az azt jelentené hogy j5 lenne az első igazi fél sárkány viszont nincs ötletem hogy nézne ki de úgy gondolom menő lenne ha j5nek kellene valamilyen varázs ige hogy felvegye sárkány formáját Translation:Well technically shyvana isnt a half dragon because she has no human genes. She can only take on a form of a human. So if my way of thinking is correct that means j5 would a be true half dragon though i dont have any idea how he would look like but I think it would be cool of j5 requieres some kind of spell to assume his dragon form
Please let hwei be the lol's invoker (dota 2 champ), i already can see his 3 skills being the 3 primary collors and he can mix then to make different speels
@@morelstrike all they said like 2 months ago was that a new 'cute and small marksman was hatching', so who knows! if it is actually a dragon, then i'd assume it is a caster marksman. hopefully a cassiopeia kind of caster but with a runaan's hurricane included in his kit. i imagine somethin' like this: - W: is an AoE pool of magical fire that lasts 5 seconds. applies a debuff to every enemy that steps on it. - Q: shoot homing magic fireballs at debuffed enemies in auto attack range, 650 range. in exchange, his autos are not too strong or fast. maybe match teemo's E damage but without the DoT. - E: small dash that grants 20% movement speed and shoots homing fireballs to enemies in range that apply a 30% slow for 2 seconds. - R: he has no ultimate ability, instead, he can fly all across the map and bring one teammate with him every 5 minutes. - P: he gets buffs every time his team slays a dragon. 2.5% AP & 2.5% MS per dragon. he also gets a 25% cooldown reduction on his W and E if his team get's all four dragons. his basic attacks deal 30% AP on-hit and get 10% AS every time he maxes one of his basic abilities. i know i'll most probably be disappointed but a man can dream. u.u
I am both excited and scared of the Freljordian vastaya idea. At one hand, the potential is massive. On the other, I am scared Riot will decide to go the safe route of Cute/Seductive Anime girl with barely any clothes on because Iceborn shenanigans.
I really dont think that the new dragon legend is the son of J4 and Shyvana. The line about the heir of royalty could just as easily have to do with Camavor since they are the only real draconic region. I mainly think so because of the line about a lurking shadow watching over him. It’s true that the J4 or Shyv could be that shadow for lore purposes but it’s much more likely some instance of a Kled type mechanic, like a dragon swooping down to save him. We already know from Nunu that LoL doesnt like to have kids “die” and I think this would be a very similar situation. Although Milio might have been a departure from that philosophy, could just as easily be nothing or even a demacian royal gaurd who comes to his aid.
The only thing I hope if Riot can nail the theme of drawing for Hwei this is the Bezier curve. The Bezier curve is complicated but when drawing, you only need to target a point, hold the mouse then move it to create a curve. I also don't mind if this isn't the option for Riot though. On coding standpoint, it is a unique targeting skill that will most likely break League's fragile engine. On mechanic standpoint, it will be hard to use and a high learning curve. It took me a while to learn the pen tool in Illustrator and even then, I can't imagine myself using it as a spell in a fast-paced game in League.
Who knows maybe the Ink Champion is like you're given the Primary Colors as Q W E and using each spell would result to you mixing them and different colors has different and the Ult is the actual Skill that does something, Red would Burn, Blue Would Slow, Yellow would Damage, Green (Y+B) Would Heal, Orange (R+Y) would Buff, Violet (B+R) would Shield. and Spamming them all together would result to Black which does Nothing. But cursor Drawing.... it might result to a lot of people drawing... something. Skarner Rework huh, and speaking of Octopus Pablo the Boxtopus when?
I think a cool way to do the ink champion would be kind of like how ffxiv ninja works i.e maybe having regular abilities but then using R to queue up a combo of spells for different effects
Ez chance to create some skill requirement by making the thrown boulder a form of temporary terrain. that he can then use his charge to stun enemies on top of

Jarvan IV misheard his father, thinking he said "lay."
It would be incredibly hilarious if the dragon egg is Shyvana and J4, especially as old as they're models and voice lines are outdated. But I believe probably something different.... Wish it was a new bird champion but FINE riot...
Good updates and congrats to Jarv and Shyv! I hope they ;do add a little more contrasting colors to Skarner as he's really hard to see against the same colored background (gray/green).
At this point riot should just hire Necrit (or at least sponsor in some way if they don't) for all the amazing content and explanations he makes for the LoL universe.
I really hope those two get together, honestly its been years just make it canon already riot!
Wdym? J4 x Shyvana is canon, they just haven't had a child yet
I mean, senna was reading a J4 and Shyvana romance novel in a star guardian animation. Riot was probably hinting on it.
same goes for the time Yasuo was reading a romance novel of Garen and Katarina, the two horniest couple on the rift...
It shouldn't! Jarvan is a horrible person, Shyvanna is a magical thing living with the " we hate magic" people
@@giuseppe9653 bruh if Jarvan was truly horrible he would have killed shyvana too, regardless of the fact that she helped him.
@kekwnope The only reason he hasn't killed her is because she's hot. That's it.
If that egg is shyvana's child, I'll go back to league. His entire kit needs to be like, super weak, but he has the STRONGEST ULTIMATE OF ALL: a mix between jarvan and shyvana's ultimate: a dragonic cataclism
Hwei feels like he's going to be League's Invoker where you can use his three skills and then his ult to "paint" different spells depending on the combination of normal skills you use. There's something about the specific use of red, blue, and yellow in the main swirl of paint in his teaser image that makes me feel like I'm not too off the cuff with this theory. After all a huge part of paint / ink as an art media is additive mixing which uses red, blue, and yellow as three primary colors (including black and white but those are shades and not TECHNICALLY colors) to mix into every single other color you can imagine. If he is, then I think I have a new favorite champion. If he isn't, I still have a new champion to add to my favorites among Sett and Sona.
Heard a theory that Hwei is responsible for releasing Fiddlesticks. In Fiddlesticks bio or short story it is mentioned a mage in a tower freed him and the first Hwei teaser was his tower in which he "exiled" himself or rather stayed in because of depression. If Hwei's magic allows him to turn his imagination into reality through paintings if he painted Fiddlesticks according to old Ionian myths that may have freed him. That would also be the reason why Hwei is depressed/ doesn't want to/ can't leave his tower as he is the reason for Fiddlesticks current terrors.
The mage releasing fiddle is one of multiple possible stories that the people in valoran (leagues universe) tell to explain fiddlesticks existence. However fiddle is just a primordial demon that existed since the start of time.
@@dustinz7131 I know and if you read his bio you should know that Fiddle was "away" for centuries. He got sealed by someone or something and somewhat recently he got released from this imprisonment. That could have been Hwei
I hope so badly that the baby dragon champ is actually Jarvan and Shyvana's son.
Also for the people commenting about the mage situation in Demacia, for the love of god at the very least watch the cutscenes from the Mageseeker game, it more or less resolves that specific issue.
Christ yes, I'm very surprised so many people don't know about it
Really happy that Freljord is getting a new champion. I believe the last completely new champion from the Freljord was Ornn, released in 2017
All i can say to Jarvan is:
DONKEY AND VYKE ARE SO PROUD OF YOU
I hope they give different rock throws like Qiyana's Q
If Skarner gets a rock from a bush it will entangle enemies hit, if he gets it from the water it will make a splash and get a bigger aoe and a rock from the heart can do extra damage with hp scaling either the enemy's or Skarner's hp
Just an idea to make him more fun and not too flat
Would be too broken, is still a colossus not and assasin
There is no way this is gonna happen, and it don't need to be this complicated. It's a simple champ
Thats just Qyianas thing but switching around the effects and replacing aoe stealth field with aoe damage field.
Qyiana is specifically a multi-element master(Well, honestly I think shes overselling herself. Compare how she uses the elements to how Milio or Zyra do. Shes just throwing elemental energy around like book 1 bionicals, not actually connecting with them. She has mastery, but zero creativity) thats why she has her terrain stuff. Skarner, on the other hand, is strictly an earth elemental. He doesnt do water, he doesnt do plants, he does rocks. And even if he picks up a rock from the river, or one that has grass on it... he doesn't have any ability to affect the water or plants on the rock to make things happen.
Now that isnt saying the idea has no merit, just that copying Qyiana's terrain points is a bad fit. Instead I would think soil, solid rock, and worked stone would be better.
Soil would be just all ground, and I imagine its a quickly cast short ranged slow that trades accessibility for effectiveness.
Rock would be from walls, and would be the high cc, medium damage one, stunning those hit by it.
And worked stone would be from towers and base walls, doing higher damage and stunning the first target hit, but having a larger aoe slow.
Or just drop the third one and use the first two.
Draconic egg could also maybe be from Camavore
I love the addition to choose supported languages, not because I understand them, but because they can sound more serious and passionate than English VOs.
Zoe being less obnoxious for example.
Wonder if Lux would be the same.
Finally, Sett having Dio's VO🤣🤣🤣
Finally, korean ahri or russian vayne
I think the small dragon could be something like a baby inviolus vox. It could be one of aurelions brothers thus the royalty and aurelion could be making a special haven for them
The only thing that i would like add on Skarner's Q is the boulder visually or add the buff on it depending on the terrain change.
thank you, for always doing what you do chief Necrit continue and breaking down the secret of lores.
I feel like the EGG is directly after mageseeker. Like they banged then shyvana run away. She probably went somewgere to make a dragon heaven. So it goes ovef all the points mentioned like it being the heir, being in a safe space but away from home.
I started playing league of legends almost an month ago because I wanted to interact more with my friends, and now seeing this Ink mage and the quickplay feature made me motivated to get better an the game
That's actually really sweet, I hope you can improve as much as you want :)
It helps to watch Challenger gameplay (at least it does imo). Personally I find that simply watching how/why Challengers play the way they do helps me more than those "advice" or "coaching" videos, because a lot of them are quite specific. If Challenger gameplay is too brainy for you at first, you should start with Diamond+ gameplay videos, since they are a lot easier to digest but still complex enough to learn from. Also, finding a specific player can help you improve (for example, following the gameplay of the Rank 1 Annie in the world). If coaching videos work best for you after all, then go for it!
Even as you're getting better at League, always stop to remind yourself that it is just a game after all, and not to beat yourself up too much for not being as good as you want to be yet. I find that a lot of people tilt easily because they're not good, but they don't want to admit it so they end up flaming their team and losing mental. Always accept that you can improve no matter what your skill level is, and always focus on how you can get better without burning yourself out.
I wish you the best of luck! ^^
@@nomoretwitterhandles wow thanks dude! At the moment I am trying to play just four characters I liked their gameplay the most (Sett, Gnar, Kindred and Veigar) and now reflecting about my games... I think I got too much on the offensive and died quickly (my experience with rouge-likes continues to haunt me lol) and thanks for the video advices! It's being kinda hard for me to find good tutorials on characters (as an example, when I play with kindred I just farm and almost never go on the offensive, and when I go I die) oh and... Can you recommend an player that mains those I said on the start to follow them? I barely find any content that explain how to play them...
Don't do it bro, there are much better things to do with your time.
I actually do hope its J4 and shyvs child
Skarner actually looks fun! A lot of new champions have been a miss for me, but the reworks have otherwise been awesome.
Still miss old galio though :(
That e is going to create so many clutch escape compilations...
@@noam242i wonder how much range it will have. its pretty much an underground Zac e
I miss old Aatrox 😢
ya sad boi galio was the OG T_T
@@lordmagnezone same i cant play the new one at all. hes so wildly different
Hwei and Jhin MUST have beef with each other. Or at least not in terms with each other's presence because of their contrasting philosophies.
Skarner looks so dope! I like the engage with the Sion-esque dash. Got another champ to look out for when in lane.
Lastly, yeah, I think those two went down with each other. Donkey (from 'Skrek') would be proud.
I DIDN'T EVEN MAKE THAT CONNECTION OMFG THAT'S BRILLIANT, donkey and dragon are couple goals.
Skarner's W also seem to grant him additional shield when it deals damage to enemy champions, can't wait to see him become the new unkillable god of Aram after Udyr in the last VGU
12:20 emagine him crawling over the walls
Before Skanner rework:
Every laner:
-Bushes not safe! Wards make them safe!
-Wall are safe! You can flash over walls to escape!
After Skanner rework:
Every laner:
OH GOD OH F***!!! IT’S COMING OUT OF BUSHES, WALLS, AND THE GROUND!!! NO WHERE IS SAFE!!!?
Edit: Kayn doesn’t count cause you know if he’s coming and from where. You don’t with a giant wall-walking spider throwing boulders at you and pinning you to the wall.
Kayn💀
@@spirostsiggenopoulos6385 there’s an indication if he’s in the wall. There doesn’t seem to be any indication with Skanner walking over walls
@@idcaoi think they could add the dirt splashes at the end of his path, but there's also a possibility that he's gonna be much slower than kayn is in the walls
dont disrespect skarner like that ever again! giant wall walking scorpion throwing boulders at you and pinning you to the wall!
@@idcao that is true i guess, they probably should add an indicator (visual or oral) to warn smd if skarner is coming, although talk and zeri don't have those so the chance of them adding one is quite negligible.
It also means you get to play with dio sett which is pretty cool. (the japanese VA for sett is the VA for dio in jjba)
I hope Hwei has a giant paint brush like the Art Master from Summoners War, itd be cool to see the brush used as a weapon more often
Im really happy about them opening access to the language packs. For people studying a foreign language, it can be a great way to learn new vocab and phrases.
His ult would be cool if it started a brief charge up animation and whomever he was touching, he suppressed as well as himself at the end. That way he can't reposition himself but he still gets a suppress with more skill expression based on how he uses his other abilities
So multitarget Malz ult?
@@the_last_ballad yeah but not point and click and with a windup and melee range
I can see Hwei having a spray paint can like Jet Set Radio character (for his urban theme); a graphics tablet (as modern theme); a paint canvas (for a painter theme like a renaissance); a sketch book (for pencil art theme); a school notebook (for doodles and School theme skin); ink paint and scrolls (for a Oriental theme) and magic/high tech pen where he draw on air (for both magic and sci fi themed skins). It can even be a Darkin skin where the pen is mightier than the sword quote would be played.
This are mostly my theories, if he ever becomes a successful new hero.
Damn, Jarvin actually hit that dragussy huh 😂
Though knowing the Demacian politics, whatever the offspring is, it'll be considered illegitimate/a bastard.
Jarvan and Donkey gotta get matching jackets
I know the baby dragon won't be Shyvana and Jarvan love child, but god I wish they were, I always thought that would be amazing
But wouldn't make sense a half dragon and a human make a normal dragon
But at the end of the day, we're getting a new dragon, and I'm hyped af, Riot already gave me a present with the Aurelion Sol rework, we just need the Shyvana one to complete the three fire boys in the rift!
Riot: "smol and smoldering"
Me with my short attention span:"oh probably like a mommy Fuemigo or somethin like the poro king but smol and fire"
Necrit: "J4 did the deed with the dragon"
If Hwei is what we think they are, it could lead to a realm of cool possibilities. Imagine if they made skins with custom animations and voice lines for Hwei and Jhin where they switch up roles, Jhin as a caring and soft artist, Hwei as the maniac.
04:10 that quote is kinda the opposite of Jhin's "art require a certain cruelty" quote,
it's gonna be really interesting with how Whei and Jhin will react to each other
I can't believe they're putting Kakyoin in league
I discovered your channel a couple of months ago, and all of your content is so interesting. Good job!
I sincerely wish the art mage can catch and store an enemy projectile on a piece of paper so that he can use it for himself later
i think in the adc teaser, when it says that something is lurking, watching, etc, it means just and ult that's and air attack something like kog'maw but on steroids. Because it talks about "creat safe space" and so.
It only took riot like 1.5 years to come this far with skarner, if they keep up the good work like this we can play the skarner rework by late 2025!
There was a great theory on Reddit that the Vastayan solo laner is a Rabbit because of "Running Around Before Breakfast Is Tough" is an acronym.
Necrit you are one of the best lore/news channels i have ever seen so thank you for the good content
Dota 2 got a hero that creates his own spells, like his first, second and third spells are element symbols and his ultimate creates the spell how you combine them, so he got access to 10 spells.
So the inkmage can kind of do the same thing, he got 3 strokes of art that mix with eachother and form spells.
Could the dragon heir be for Camavor, now that the curse from viago has been lifted maybe Camavor is actually ayble to have its kingdom ?
Ps: I haven't read the Runation book yet so I don't know if that would debunk this.
Tresh is the admin now
they way you deliver at 3:42 it instantly reminds me of invoker from dota 2
Never clicked on a video so fast, Jarvan V when
the best thing here is quickplay being added. One of my favorite things in HotS because I can just play who I want and when I play league now half the time I don't get to do that
all of this just makes me more excited for the MMO.
New skarmer looks fun as hell, pick up bolder, aa 3 times with hail of blades, through boulder
I wonder if Baby Dragon is a special Auraelion sol creation which would explain Dragon, the personality, and that's its far from home but eh
far from home could imply shyvana running from demacia after finding out she's pregnant.
@@Lolamy Hey on either side I'll take just happy Baby Dragon
@@luckyday5721 same, cute baby dragon is enough
4:31 smoll is defined as small and cute, so maybe that's what they went with?
If shyvana and jarvan happened to have a kid, wouldn't that kid be even less dragon-looking than shyvana herself?
I personally want the new champion be its own thing separated from those two, it would be really weird otherwise. Not to mention they said they are small for their kind, but that doesn't mean small for an average human, wich would be further proof the new creature champ isn't related to them.
depends whether they did the dance with no pants in hybrid form or if jarvan tapped the dragussy
Nos technikailag shyvana nem egy fél sárkány mivel nincsen neki emberi génjei. Csak emberi formát tud felvenni. Szóval ha a gondolkodás módom helyes az azt jelentené hogy j5 lenne az első igazi fél sárkány viszont nincs ötletem hogy nézne ki de úgy gondolom menő lenne ha j5nek kellene valamilyen varázs ige hogy felvegye sárkány formáját
Translation:Well technically shyvana isnt a half dragon because she has no human genes. She can only take on a form of a human. So if my way of thinking is correct that means j5 would a be true half dragon though i dont have any idea how he would look like but I think it would be cool of j5 requieres some kind of spell to assume his dragon form
Isnt shyvanna banished out of demacia for killing alot people during the ruinaiton event tho
The kid takes after his grandfather
Maybe the dragon is camavoran
I just got reminded of the Nintendo Direct where they showcased Joker's moveset.
"For Skarner's special, he wields a ROCK"
Hwei X Jhin interactions please !
"What do you mean jarvan and shyv are just friends"
Me: "OH THEY FAWKIN"
Please let hwei be the lol's invoker (dota 2 champ), i already can see his 3 skills being the 3 primary collors and he can mix then to make different speels
he's confirmed to be a marksman, so unless they find a was to balance an invoker in the bottom lane, well
@@bharatcarballo5144 Marksman mage?
@@morelstrike all they said like 2 months ago was that a new 'cute and small marksman was hatching', so who knows! if it is actually a dragon, then i'd assume it is a caster marksman. hopefully a cassiopeia kind of caster but with a runaan's hurricane included in his kit.
i imagine somethin' like this:
- W: is an AoE pool of magical fire that lasts 5 seconds. applies a debuff to every enemy that steps on it.
- Q: shoot homing magic fireballs at debuffed enemies in auto attack range, 650 range. in exchange, his autos are not too strong or fast. maybe match teemo's E damage but without the DoT.
- E: small dash that grants 20% movement speed and shoots homing fireballs to enemies in range that apply a 30% slow for 2 seconds.
- R: he has no ultimate ability, instead, he can fly all across the map and bring one teammate with him every 5 minutes.
- P: he gets buffs every time his team slays a dragon. 2.5% AP & 2.5% MS per dragon. he also gets a 25% cooldown reduction on his W and E if his team get's all four dragons.
his basic attacks deal 30% AP on-hit and get 10% AS every time he maxes one of his basic abilities.
i know i'll most probably be disappointed but a man can dream. u.u
@@bharatcarballo5144 You are talking about 2 different champions.
@@morelstrike what? i'm talking about the hatching marksman. what two champions?
Team: we really need some help here
Me playong Hwei: (frantically trying to finish my pictograph Mona Lisa)
I really hope shyvana and j4 have a love story comic
3:00 I was just gonna say "I want something new, fresh, and complex like mr. 200 years"
art requires a certain empathy. jhin never seen such bullshit
If that next champ is the child of Shyvana and Jarvan. I need a shyvana VGU update so badly
♥ i hope we ever will see Norra in the Rift some Day the kitty miss his Yordle :( and NO Legends or Runeterra is not ok!!!
I was thinking that the egg is related to Camavor. They have dragons and nobility, no? I wonder if that ties in somehow.
I am both excited and scared of the Freljordian vastaya idea.
At one hand, the potential is massive.
On the other, I am scared Riot will decide to go the safe route of Cute/Seductive Anime girl with barely any clothes on because Iceborn shenanigans.
Most like going to cute/seductive route. They went with that with most vastaya
SHYVANA DID YOU LAID THIS EGG?!!
hwei huh, riot rlly is running out of normal names for characters
Steve
If you give them a normal name there gonna be easy to forget about or confuse with other characters from diff characters from different franchises
Its a fantasy universe dunno what ya want. Maybe a top lane tax accountant name Ralph?
Tony, the noxian Butcher
10:33 The stomp/ground pound looks like it should have a knock up effect just based on how it looks
"2 letters away from being banned in the US" 😂😂necrit you absolute legend
bro you are a legit hero for making content for a game that is going to come out at least 10 years from now xD
I really dont think that the new dragon legend is the son of J4 and Shyvana. The line about the heir of royalty could just as easily have to do with Camavor since they are the only real draconic region. I mainly think so because of the line about a lurking shadow watching over him. It’s true that the J4 or Shyv could be that shadow for lore purposes but it’s much more likely some instance of a Kled type mechanic, like a dragon swooping down to save him. We already know from Nunu that LoL doesnt like to have kids “die” and I think this would be a very similar situation. Although Milio might have been a departure from that philosophy, could just as easily be nothing or even a demacian royal gaurd who comes to his aid.
The only thing I hope if Riot can nail the theme of drawing for Hwei this is the Bezier curve. The Bezier curve is complicated but when drawing, you only need to target a point, hold the mouse then move it to create a curve. I also don't mind if this isn't the option for Riot though. On coding standpoint, it is a unique targeting skill that will most likely break League's fragile engine. On mechanic standpoint, it will be hard to use and a high learning curve. It took me a while to learn the pen tool in Illustrator and even then, I can't imagine myself using it as a spell in a fast-paced game in League.
Hwei reminded me of the Captain in Black Clover "Rill Boismortier" with his Painting magic
Who knows maybe the Ink Champion is like you're given the Primary Colors as Q W E and using each spell would result to you mixing them and different colors has different and the Ult is the actual Skill that does something, Red would Burn, Blue Would Slow, Yellow would Damage, Green (Y+B) Would Heal, Orange (R+Y) would Buff, Violet (B+R) would Shield. and Spamming them all together would result to Black which does Nothing.
But cursor Drawing.... it might result to a lot of people drawing... something.
Skarner Rework huh, and speaking of Octopus Pablo the Boxtopus when?
I'm convinced that the new creature champion is dragon prince grinzo from LOR
Dont blame Jarvan even a little bit.
Yasu-o cereal confirmed? 1:29
you know what would be a cool story. That b skarner saves kai sa from belveth. when she dives down in ishtal (the call cinematic)
I think a cool way to do the ink champion would be kind of like how ffxiv ninja works i.e maybe having regular abilities but then using R to queue up a combo of spells for different effects
2:04 Had me dying, the delivery was on point
Ez chance to create some skill requirement by making the thrown boulder a form of temporary terrain. that he can then use his charge to stun enemies on top of
