@@futalordv3138 The Witcher "Online" is first step in the direction of monetizing the franchise, EA/Activision style. Why the FUCK would you want that with one of the last remaining franchises that doesn't financially rape it's consumers?
I wouldn't mind a possible sequel or standalone "based on Witcher series" game where creating a character and choosing a school is a thing. Each school has its own specialty like Wolf is your balanced class, Griffin is the magic/alchemy-strong class, Cat is the melee combat specialty, Viper is obviously the assassin specialty, and Bear is your standard tank. All classes have the same signs and bombs and whatnot but the class affects their behaviors. For Viper, something like Yrden is a straight up trap for all enemies and it lasts longer; critical hit chance is increased by 50% with an extended cool down or something. And Bears would have something equal in specialty with Quen, like when hit while active, the explosion radius is larger and more powerful, knocks all enemies back or can be struck several times with an explosion on each hit before Quen is dispelled. Shit like that I think would be cool to explore. Just leave the online shit out of it. Keep it 100% single player like it is now. Online is where monetization finds its home, which is also the end of quality video game development. I don't want to see that happen with Witcher.
@@jackbuchanan6441 I really would trust CDPR to not milk the game to much, I just don't think the witcher world and theme would fit in an online ambiance, like, it would ruin the outcast vibe that they make for the witchers if there were a lot of them
Yeah, I don't know much about letho since I didn't play W3 with a Witcher 2 save file start -but I acquired the viper set and when I envisioned someone from the viper school being a nimble assassin I did not envision a guy looking like Letho... the dudes traps go to the top of his neck... Regardless that cutscene was awesome. I don't get how that mage didn't do anything to save himself or the king at the end. Lol but made a good cinematic scene
I feel like Letho would make a really awesome Witcher game. Stealth gameplay, new lands, his dry sense of humor, he is ruthless, etc. How cool would that be to work to fix the school of the viper.
@@Blittsplitt5 Seriously, dude is awesome. I doubt they will use him moving forward but, damn, it would be extremely cool to play as him and try to rebuild the School of the Viper.
"steel for humans, silver for monsters, gold for the witcher" I always thought that people said that because you can pay a witcher to walk away. Didn't think Geralt actually blinded another witcher with his greed, in the literal sense.
Hats off to Witcher for actually making magic what it is, a form of pure energy that would blast apart anything it hit even if its just for the trailer
I still agree with this as well! It would make CD proj. Make stealth the main thing for Letho's gameplay and adding a different way to slaying monsters
The witcher from the ending of Witcher 1 is without a doubt a member of the Viper School, not just for attempting to assassinate Foltest but they are the only school of witchers to train using shortswords, which the unnamed witcher wielded along with his dagger.
OK... This only fortifies that Witcher 1 needs a remake. Even if they don't intend to make new games, they could at least give console owners a chance to play and have it look damn good
Then re-release Witcher 2 on newer consoles with 60 fps support and stuff so that PS4 owners and Xbone owners can play the 2 games that are often forgotten about
This is my favorite trailer for any game that I've ever played. This was my first witcher game and I still remember how disappointed I was that I didn't get to run around as Letho assassinating kings lol. TBH this sparked a whole knife obsession that only ended once I got daggers very similar to his. I love Letho so much... it's a problem...
I like to think the school of the Viper were ,maybe not anymore, researchers of all the monsters or creatures etc. this explains why they have extensive knowledge on the Wild Hunt.
I'm the proud owner of a Griffon School medalion...but only because the Viper was twice the gold pieces. Don't the mind the buffs to Wisdom and magic though.
The witcher 1 really do justice to how awesome witchers fight. The almost alien movements, like their bodies are not using their muscles, but something else.
When I hear school of the bear I think Viking witcher aka get pissed drunk and fight monsters looking badass while doing so I look forward to that vid since I have little to no knowledge of the bear school.
Always thought the School of the Bear would have been amazing if the had a larger use of axes too. Kinda like how Letho had the twin daggers we get to see him use, maybe they liked to brand more axe based weaponry and have even learned to apply an oil to it. (One thing that always made me sad in Witcher 3. Can't apply oil to another type of weapon)
The viper school was made to take care of invaders from other worlds The cat school was a assassins training school Griffin where the army's of the witchers Bears where the strongest and could take on a fiend with their own hand (which thay did) it lead to them almost getting wiped out Wolf where the all around assassin's,army,monster slayer
@Matthew Sosnicki It's written in the wiki that the viper school is the most secretive. Another interesting thing is that among witcher schools, Vipers are the one who have studied the Wild Hunt extensively. Cat schools are considered an outcast among witcher schools since they're known to break witcher's code of neutrality by taking on political assassination contracts. Griffins are one of the most successful sects, and one of the most regal, and knightly among witchers. a griffin witcher specializes in magic as their gear suggests. Coen, The witcher who trained Ciri hailed from Griffin school. Bear schools favor overpowering their opponents, as their gear suggest, through strengthening Quen. Wolf school I don't know. their gear focus on hunting monsters more than any other gear, a nod to the fact that they hated other witcher schools for getting involved in politics. They were the most dedicated to hunting monsters.
i can't shake the feeling that Letho is a weird character i mean look at ALL the other witcher we know or have seen (Geralt, Eskel, Lambert, Leo, Jad Karadin, Berengar, Coen, Gaetan, Auckles, Serrit, Vesemir, the unknown assassin, Kyian), except for Vesemir (which is probably around 200yrs old, and old even for witcher standards) they ALL are of a lean, muscular-but-slim complexion like some suprahuman gymnast (which makes sense given their incredible agility and combat style). Then we have Letho, which looks more like a World Strongman Championship contestant...and you see him twirling, dodging, rolling and jumping like nothing, like any other witcher Am I the only one that finds it incredibly weird? It makes you think how the mutations actually work. Was his buffness enhanced by the mutations as side effect? was he already buff and that characteristic perdured throught the training and trials? or did he just work out like mad after becoming a witcher? I mean, i believe this was some sort of side effect, because he is not harmoniously muscular, he is more "bulky" than other so...an unforeseen effect of the Grasses?
DonPatrono usually big muscle bound men are slower but there are cases irl where they're as nimble and quick as some leaner men. We had a guy who was 6'2" weighed 240 pounds ran a 4.4 40, was insanely flexible when we did grappling, and while not nearly as agile on plyometrics still had insane explosion when doing plyometrics and rolls.
Both my brothers are over 6', and rather muscular. They move quickly, and are known to be the more quicker fencing students of the cities fencing club. So yeah, big and muscular guys can be fast and nimble
Snakes are not lanky or lean. Snakes are pure muscle, 90% of a snakes body is just muscle. Letho is the perfect viper. Probably has 200 years of powerlifting too.
Don't underestimate the human body. If you don't follow rugby then you haven't seen the type of athleticism those athletes train for. Imagine big bodies that can move quickly and nimbly, with a lot of explosive power and speed and being able to play at that pace for two 40 min halves. Outside of rugby (esp New Zealand rugby) people tend to think big people are strong but are slow and unfit. However this isn't the case, rugby legends like Tongan born Jonah Lomu who was 6'5, 265 lbs, ran 100m at 10.6 sec proves to us the human body is stronger than we think. Heaps of others like Julian savea (120 kg, 6'5, 100m-10.4) Ben lam (115 kg, 6'4, 100m- 10.3sec) Senita Taumanivalu (6'6, 120 kg, 100m - 10.5sec) Nemani Nadolo (6'5, 125 kg, 100m- 10.6 sec) and plenty more big yet fit fast and explosive athletes in this brand of sport. So nothing wrong with this fella in the vid being the way he is despite his size, especially with those witcher enhancements. From what I know is that their training must be different from other witcher schools and each school has their own unique training methods, like how the athletes of New Zealand rugby has a different training method than to those from other brands of sport.
Now that Geralt's story is over lots of people are asking for a Ciri game, but Letho is the Witcher I want to play as the most other than making my own character. The man is the closest thing the Witcher world has to an Orc Rogue!
9:32 Also, Geralt's leg was crushed and not fully recovered, so he moved with a difficulty. You can actually see him dragging his leg a bit in this clip. It is mentioned a lot in the books, a bit less in the game (When he talks with Berengar in the first game, Berengar mentions this).
This game just keeps to continue to amaze me, i was actually watching 6months of these videos before starting the gameplay myself, now i cant wait to get home from work to play some :D
Man the whole world and lore around the Witcher is almost mind blowing. I've beat the main game of the Witcher3 a few times but i got into the game 2 years after it's initial release and i never bought the dlc so recently i grabbed the complete edition and started another playthrough. I can't believe how much i missed through my first runs of the game and how deep the lore goes. It's 2024 and I'm watching Witcher videos from 5 years ago, crazy i know. This game needs to be studied by all the major studios as it's really a work of art. Then you add the fanbase and content like this and you really have the perfect storm of gaming. I'm already planning my new game plus playthrough as I've missed so many small details even through multiple playthroughs and this current one.
The voice matches the character design so perfectly for letho...it's quite rare in gaming for that to happen in my opinion...I feel no other voice actor could do it...it's like James earl Jones and Darth Vader ...once James leaves us Vader will be no more...nobody can pull it off quite the same
The reason on why they murderd the kings of the North is simple. Strength in unity. Temeria is strong with their siege artillery and Foltest was a very great commander who was both shrewd and cunning while also a damn brave fighter, tactician and also a great orator that managed to align all Northern kingdoms and kings into his fold and form an alliance against Nilfgaard. Redenia under Radovid has brave fighters that never surrender and never give up in fights. Besides they have a very comprehensive spying network and have no qualms working with whichever way that works, even if that means working with criminals just to eek out a win. That's why Emyr wanted Letho and his mates to assassinate the Northern kings and the one that needs to go the most was Foltest.
I believe there is a dubious confirmation that the Witcher 1 assassin is of the Viper School, in Gwent standalone, the card Viper School Witcher both looks similar, and is depicted with a coin pouch being cut open in his art, which Geralt uses to distract him in the cinematic. Not sure if it was mentioned in the video, not finished it yet!
It's sad that we don't know much about them, but I really like the school of the crane. Just the idea of a Witcher school that specializes in aerial and underwater combat is so amazing to me
Letho is so huge that he seems to be cute. Idk but look at him, he is so round, look like a big fat cat or a panda. Why don't the mage teleport himself and the king away?
Dankus Memus but the mage knows that there is a enemy after the bomb appeared. He just stand there and do nothing. He could have teleport himself and the king away after the bomb and before letho charge
Mages can't really teleport in the Witcher. They can open portals. But this is really dangerous and only very skilled people like Yennefer can actually open a safe portal when there is no time to focus. And even then it is not really possible to control where that portal will lead to.
I can't recall the exact amount, but I remember gametrailers linked some news site that I believe said it was 10,000 dollars to make. It may have been a bit more... It is crazy how much cgi movies cost especially at that caliber.
I have really been enjoying your videos by the way! I only recently came across the channel, and even though I am a heavily devoted fan to the entire series and books. I still find exponential enjoyment from the research you put into your creations! Thank you so much for your time and effort.

Love the video, The WItcher schools are such an interesting topic and very enjoyable to talk about! After a careful consideration my personal choice is: The School of The Wolf. What I personally find so cool and attractive about the school is: its combat style, philosophies, choice of armor and weapons, the wolf medallion, the keep of Kaer Morhen.
I’d love a Witcher spinoff game based in the Viper School. Maybe as Letho (One of my favorite characters) , or maybe even as “mysterious Witcher” from the end of the first game, and it could be a create your own character ordeal. Be a cool way to add a little to the Lore by inserting us into the continuity that way
There’s actually a bit of contradiction with Kolgrim in the game. Due to the unsent letter it implies that he died a few years ago, as the Vipers haven’t had a home for quite a while. But as you enter the village at White Orchard there’s two women talking about him and what happened, implying it happened recently. So I’d say the devs may have forgotten about whatever was implemented into the game first and just made a mistake. I only noticed this myself while starting a new playthrough this evening!
Yeah haha I decided that instead of telling you a brief overview of the characters that they deserve their own individual character videos, My school of the wolf video has basically become a short series of videos, describing characters and other information that deserves it's own video, for example Kaer Morhen.
I honestly just see the viper school as a guild of assassin's, much like the cat school. Now before anyone gets the wrong idea, I know they're monster slayers just like the other school, but one cannot simply ignore the trail of corpses you find everytime you stumble on to the path of one of these witchers
Very true, but that's only because of the emperor ordering them to kill the northern kings, Geralt has also done his fair share of human killings as well. But I definitely see where you are coming from.
WitcherGeorge true, though with garalt most of the time when he kills someone it's because they really pissed him off, or just flat out attacked him. Not exactly the same as head hunting, but I see the comparison you're making. Well there was that one time with radavid but he had it coming.
school of the cat had a flaw in their recipe in trial of grasses, which meddled with their witchers' emotions instead of dulling them... so most of cat school witchers came out as impulsive and short tempered - hence the human killings. Vipers were just caught by the balls and ordered what to do... caught between a rock and a hard place
Love the video . Cant wait for you to do the school of the Griffin. If i was a Witcher thats the school i would wanna be in. Unfortunately im black lol, so even if i did exist in the Witcher universe. I would be most likely somewhere in Africa, so probably wouldn't be a Witcher anyway. And you got a new subscriber.
The Witcher world doesn't have an equivalent to Africa as far as we know. You would likely hail from Kovir and there would be no reason you couldn't be a witcher =P
I'm not black but one of the first things I thought when playing the game was how annoying it would be to be playing it as a black person. Talk about fantasy destroying! Still man, it's a fantasy universe.... of course there can be Witchers with black skin!
Here's a question: Do you think letho's size is due to his mutations, a bit like Geralt's white hair? The other Viper School Witchers we see are of a more normal stature. Maybe some experimental mutations?
Letho is a master tactician and all around VERY smart guy. He uses his bulky appearance to dupe people into thinking he is just a brute, but if you played Witcher 2 you know that he can outsmart even sorceresses. So yeah, favorite of all Witchers except Geralt maybe.
im wondering why they didn't use the same animation style in cutscenes of witcher 3. Those animated scenes were so good!! Would love to see an animated series of witcher.
Did you know that, if you dont visit the woman who you take the quest from, you actually have to fight the specters there and Letho quest is kinda getting missed. So be careful players who explore the place BEFORE meeting the woman with that quest or you will miss the Letho quest.
Thanks for the video. Have to disagree on the reason for the school though. All the schools were created to fight the monsters. Schools may have had additional focuses and rules but they are all created for monster hunting after the conjunction of spheres. I was really looking forward to a lot of Witcher 2 cutscenes and such on this one. You probably don’t have it which is why you just showed 3 for Lethos. If you do though, please use it in other videos. I have played 3 multiple times and seen so many videos on it. I played the other two but that was so many years ago. I’ll bet most watching your videos haven’t and would love to see 1 & 2 footage too.
Letho has always seemed so menacing to me because he has brute strength to rival the Mountain from Game of Thrones but at the same time being a witcher is incredibly agile and stealthy. Additionally, his role in the regicides and then managing to successfully doublecross the Lodge of Sorceresses, capturing Triss Merigold and (if Geralt allows it) killing Shiela de Tancarville, it all shows he is extremely intelligent and adept at manipulating people. And he fights smart. For example, when he went up against Triss, someone objectively way more powerful than him, he ambushed her and struck too fast for her to cast a spell.
Letho defeated geralt in witcher 2 so i think its safe to say the school of the viper produce the most skilled and talented witchers in history with the exception of geralt himself of course but overall the viper school had the best witchers also letho wasnt a bad guy just extremely loyal to his school of the viper to the point he was willing to kill kings to have his viper school restored
Rick_Genest_fangirl #IAmNotAMonsterSCHIZOPHRENIA he already defeated geralt though of course he can beat him lol letho won the first fight geralt won the second
Ya know, I always try to play the games as closely to the canon as I can , but Letho really has grown on me. But the games "canon" really are just what you make it to be. I think on my next playthrough I'm gonna simulate and make sure that he's there for the battle of Kaer Morhen. I remember that I had him alive on my first playthrough but after that I didn't really connect with him. After all these years I think I will really appreciate his character much more. And besides, who doesn't want more witchers in the game!
Sapkowski didnt bring the school of viper, but he brought the school of cat, but not in a novel or short story, but rather in a comic book, the only one with original scenario by him
The Cat school was the school known for assassinations, the school of the viper wasn't an evil school or even known for assassination, they only did it in exchange to have their guild rebuilt as promised from Nilfgaard.
Just saying this right now (I'm only about at 8:30), the School of the Viper seems to prefer dual-wielding shorter blades and using magical/alchemical items more than using Signs or full-length blades. This can potentially be a reference to viper's fangs and their potent venom (Two short blades=two fangs, alchemy and magical items can be venomous or have other hazardous effects). I can only imagine the kind of bombs and blade oils that the School of the Viper developed, both for use against monsters and humans. Oils that debilitate and cripple, bombs that confuse, impair, or mutilate.
This video made me go play the Witcher 2 on series X after all these years… and boy while not as polished as the Witcher 3 it’s a great game. Well worth it 🍷

Sean Kallas well that’s true, would be fun though being that op
The witcher from the ending of Witcher 1 is without a doubt a member of the Viper School, not just for attempting to assassinate Foltest but they are the only school of witchers to train using shortswords, which the unnamed witcher wielded along with his dagger.
Berengar was school of the wolf. He stole the mutagens from them.
It is a viper school witcher, dual wielding swords, assasinating Kings and also he appears in one of the memories of geralt in witcher 2.
OK... This only fortifies that Witcher 1 needs a remake. Even if they don't intend to make new games, they could at least give console owners a chance to play and have it look damn good
Then re-release Witcher 2 on newer consoles with 60 fps support and stuff so that PS4 owners and Xbone owners can play the 2 games that are often forgotten about
@Leo Hernandez PS4 and XBONE owners
Technically the witcher 2 is backwards compatable so the 360 version is available for Xbone but I get what ya mean
I could not even understand how to play witcher 1 god damn the giant mantist keeps kicking my ass i barely played witcher 1 for 2 hours
Ayoo
This is my favorite trailer for any game that I've ever played. This was my first witcher game and I still remember how disappointed I was that I didn't get to run around as Letho assassinating kings lol. TBH this sparked a whole knife obsession that only ended once I got daggers very similar to his. I love Letho so much... it's a problem...
really luv the witcher 2 intro cutscene.
also quality content m8
Thank you, it took a long time to render haha
I like to think the school of the Viper were ,maybe not anymore, researchers of all the monsters or creatures etc. this explains why they have extensive knowledge on the Wild Hunt.
I'm the proud owner of a Griffon School medalion...but only because the Viper was twice the gold pieces. Don't the mind the buffs to Wisdom and magic though.
haha I'd love to own a Griffin Medallion.
@@Aranred1 I think he meant irl
The witcher 1 really do justice to how awesome witchers fight. The almost alien movements, like their bodies are not using their muscles, but something else.
When I hear school of the bear I think Viking witcher aka get pissed drunk and fight monsters looking badass while doing so I look forward to that vid since I have little to no knowledge of the bear school.
Yessss bear school sounds so badass.
Always thought the School of the Bear would have been amazing if the had a larger use of axes too. Kinda like how Letho had the twin daggers we get to see him use, maybe they liked to brand more axe based weaponry and have even learned to apply an oil to it. (One thing that always made me sad in Witcher 3. Can't apply oil to another type of weapon)
Far as I know not much is know about the bear school.
Kicktugo55 why?
Mainly because it's not in the books but was first introduced in the third game (correct me if im wrong)
Letho of Swollet. School of these sick pythons 💪🏾
The viper school was made to take care of invaders from other worlds
The cat school was a assassins training school
Griffin where the army's of the witchers
Bears where the strongest and could take on a fiend with their own hand (which thay did) it lead to them almost getting wiped out
Wolf where the all around assassin's,army,monster slayer
manticore?
They are the forgers wepons,armors they make the best
And they hunt iof curse
witcher 4 school of the dragon
next witcher should be mmorpg and your school is your class ;)
@Matthew Sosnicki
It's written in the wiki that the viper school is the most secretive. Another interesting thing is that among witcher schools, Vipers are the one who have studied the Wild Hunt extensively.
Cat schools are considered an outcast among witcher schools since they're known to break witcher's code of neutrality by taking on political assassination contracts.
Griffins are one of the most successful sects, and one of the most regal, and knightly among witchers. a griffin witcher specializes in magic as their gear suggests. Coen, The witcher who trained Ciri hailed from Griffin school.
Bear schools favor overpowering their opponents, as their gear suggest, through strengthening Quen.
Wolf school I don't know. their gear focus on hunting monsters more than any other gear, a nod to the fact that they hated other witcher schools for getting involved in politics. They were the most dedicated to hunting monsters.
i can't shake the feeling that Letho is a weird character
i mean look at ALL the other witcher we know or have seen (Geralt, Eskel, Lambert, Leo, Jad Karadin, Berengar, Coen, Gaetan, Auckles, Serrit, Vesemir, the unknown assassin, Kyian), except for Vesemir (which is probably around 200yrs old, and old even for witcher standards) they ALL are of a lean, muscular-but-slim complexion like some suprahuman gymnast (which makes sense given their incredible agility and combat style). Then we have Letho, which looks more like a World Strongman Championship contestant...and you see him twirling, dodging, rolling and jumping like nothing, like any other witcher
Am I the only one that finds it incredibly weird? It makes you think how the mutations actually work. Was his buffness enhanced by the mutations as side effect? was he already buff and that characteristic perdured throught the training and trials? or did he just work out like mad after becoming a witcher?
I mean, i believe this was some sort of side effect, because he is not harmoniously muscular, he is more "bulky" than other so...an unforeseen effect of the Grasses?
DonPatrono usually big muscle bound men are slower but there are cases irl where they're as nimble and quick as some leaner men. We had a guy who was 6'2" weighed 240 pounds ran a 4.4 40, was insanely flexible when we did grappling, and while not nearly as agile on plyometrics still had insane explosion when doing plyometrics and rolls.
Both my brothers are over 6', and rather muscular. They move quickly, and are known to be the more quicker fencing students of the cities fencing club.
So yeah, big and muscular guys can be fast and nimble
Witcher Anabolic Potion 😉
Snakes are not lanky or lean. Snakes are pure muscle, 90% of a snakes body is just muscle.
Letho is the perfect viper.
Probably has 200 years of powerlifting too.
Don't underestimate the human body. If you don't follow rugby then you haven't seen the type of athleticism those athletes train for. Imagine
big bodies that can move quickly and nimbly, with a lot of explosive power and speed and being able to play at that pace for two 40 min halves.
Outside of rugby (esp New Zealand rugby) people tend to think big people are strong but are slow and unfit. However this isn't the case, rugby legends like Tongan born Jonah Lomu who was 6'5, 265 lbs, ran 100m at 10.6 sec proves to us the human body is stronger than we think. Heaps of others like Julian savea (120 kg, 6'5, 100m-10.4) Ben lam (115 kg, 6'4, 100m- 10.3sec) Senita Taumanivalu (6'6, 120 kg, 100m - 10.5sec) Nemani Nadolo (6'5, 125 kg, 100m- 10.6 sec) and plenty more big yet fit fast and explosive athletes in this brand of sport. So nothing wrong with this fella in the vid being the way he is despite his size, especially with those witcher enhancements. From what I know is that their training must be different from other witcher schools and each school has their own unique training methods, like how the athletes of New Zealand rugby has a different training method than to those from other brands of sport.
Now that Geralt's story is over lots of people are asking for a Ciri game, but Letho is the Witcher I want to play as the most other than making my own character. The man is the closest thing the Witcher world has to an Orc Rogue!
huh, i never noticed him casting quen right there at the beginning
rayjinflo yeah. I thought that he sort of activating the bomb
that sign made a blue effect, quen is yellowish
Quen is yellowish in witcher 3, the colors are different in the other witcher games
I desperately wanna know more about letho personally..... I wish there was more info on the character
He's long lost brother of Vin Diesel
9:32 Also, Geralt's leg was crushed and not fully recovered, so he moved with a difficulty. You can actually see him dragging his leg a bit in this clip. It is mentioned a lot in the books, a bit less in the game (When he talks with Berengar in the first game, Berengar mentions this).
letho never skipped arm day
This game just keeps to continue to amaze me,
i was actually watching 6months of these videos before starting the gameplay myself,
now i cant wait to get home from work to play some :D
Man the whole world and lore around the Witcher is almost mind blowing. I've beat the main game of the Witcher3 a few times but i got into the game 2 years after it's initial release and i never bought the dlc so recently i grabbed the complete edition and started another playthrough. I can't believe how much i missed through my first runs of the game and how deep the lore goes. It's 2024 and I'm watching Witcher videos from 5 years ago, crazy i know. This game needs to be studied by all the major studios as it's really a work of art. Then you add the fanbase and content like this and you really have the perfect storm of gaming. I'm already planning my new game plus playthrough as I've missed so many small details even through multiple playthroughs and this current one.
Wine & Blood Dlc is a masterpiece on its on. ❤
before i accualy thought that the viper school was the assassin school
ramuel Catibayan the cat school takes that title
@الجنرال -general who tf are you
I need CD Projekt to make another Witcher game. :/
Me too man haha
Letho is swole af
Munozl360 Swole is the goal size is the prize its Gainz o clock
aye.
This cinematic of introducing letho will always be my top favorite videos.. He is such a badass.. max strength assassin ❤️
The Mike Ehrmantrout of the Witcher world.
The voice matches the character design so perfectly for letho...it's quite rare in gaming for that to happen in my opinion...I feel no other voice actor could do it...it's like James earl Jones and Darth Vader ...once James leaves us Vader will be no more...nobody can pull it off quite the same
Actually they recreated his voice with computers so we can have it forever
It would be great if Letho appeared in the next Witcher game. Would love to play as him if they release such a game in the future.
The reason on why they murderd the kings of the North is simple. Strength in unity.
Temeria is strong with their siege artillery and Foltest was a very great commander who was both shrewd and cunning while also a damn brave fighter, tactician and also a great orator that managed to align all Northern kingdoms and kings into his fold and form an alliance against Nilfgaard. Redenia under Radovid has brave fighters that never surrender and never give up in fights. Besides they have a very comprehensive spying network and have no qualms working with whichever way that works, even if that means working with criminals just to eek out a win. That's why Emyr wanted Letho and his mates to assassinate the Northern kings and the one that needs to go the most was Foltest.
I believe there is a dubious confirmation that the Witcher 1 assassin is of the Viper School, in Gwent standalone, the card Viper School Witcher both looks similar, and is depicted with a coin pouch being cut open in his art, which Geralt uses to distract him in the cinematic. Not sure if it was mentioned in the video, not finished it yet!
Did you get to the bit where I talk about it?
It's sad that we don't know much about them, but I really like the school of the crane. Just the idea of a Witcher school that specializes in aerial and underwater combat is so amazing to me
I wish the Tv series has at least 10% from what we experienced in the game as story or character development. Really great video btw.
I knew the tv series would fk it up
Love the witcher series and this is a great video along with your others. To the point and informational. Subscribed 👌
Thanks so much man, means a lot.
Letho is so huge that he seems to be cute.
Idk but look at him, he is so round, look like a big fat cat or a panda.
Why don't the mage teleport himself and the king away?
There really wasn't much time. His whole attack only took seconds.
Dankus Memus but the mage knows that there is a enemy after the bomb appeared. He just stand there and do nothing. He could have teleport himself and the king away after the bomb and before letho charge
Jorge Morgan it's north wind, the mage can still throw fireball. However, you are right, that doesn't matter as long as it looks cool.
Mages can't really teleport in the Witcher. They can open portals. But this is really dangerous and only very skilled people like Yennefer can actually open a safe portal when there is no time to focus. And even then it is not really possible to control where that portal will lead to.
Yannic Held
Wait, did u mean the game lie to us?
Letho is NOT the most famous member of the School of the Viper. That title belongs to Randy of Ortonberg.
Ask the average witcher player.
Phew, that letho scene is one of the most badass videos ever created. Was ridiculously expensive to render and so well choreographed.
how much to render? Also I totally agree man, hence why I played almost the while thing haha
I can't recall the exact amount, but I remember gametrailers linked some news site that I believe said it was 10,000 dollars to make. It may have been a bit more... It is crazy how much cgi movies cost especially at that caliber.
I have really been enjoying your videos by the way! I only recently came across the channel, and even though I am a heavily devoted fan to the entire series and books. I still find exponential enjoyment from the research you put into your creations! Thank you so much for your time and effort.
thank you man

Thank you man!
Cant stress enough how much I love that the rogue in the opening is a big dude
Love the video, The WItcher schools are such an interesting topic and very enjoyable to talk about! After a careful consideration my personal choice is:
The School of The Wolf. What I personally find so cool and attractive about the school is: its combat style, philosophies, choice of armor and weapons, the wolf medallion, the keep of Kaer Morhen.
Yesss my second favourite school of the witcher thanks man great video look forward to more content.
Thank you mate
WitcherGeorge no problem thanks for content the more the better.
whats your favoritr school?
itz Phantom Wolf school is my number one Griffin school is my three. How about you buddy what are your 3 favourites?
Space Cake's my favoritr is bear school becausse of pure raw strength, second is wolf for me bevause geralt of rivia and third is viper
That Witcher 2 opening cinematic is still so badass even after all these years.
Instant sub after I watched the video. Exquisite work.
I’d love a Witcher spinoff game based in the Viper School. Maybe as Letho (One of my favorite characters) , or maybe even as “mysterious Witcher” from the end of the first game, and it could be a create your own character ordeal. Be a cool way to add a little to the Lore by inserting us into the continuity that way
Imagine being apart of a stupid noodle school - This post was made by the wolf school gang
Except Letho isn't of tbe Wolf school.
@@MoviesFreeGalore you need to work on reading comprehension
@@Jon_Snowhite probably need to quit drinking as much.
Imagine being in a school of dumb dogs
- This post was made by the Cat School gang
@@eyoshinthemaximum imagine being in a school made of dumb cats this post was made by bear school gang
There’s actually a bit of contradiction with Kolgrim in the game. Due to the unsent letter it implies that he died a few years ago, as the Vipers haven’t had a home for quite a while. But as you enter the village at White Orchard there’s two women talking about him and what happened, implying it happened recently. So I’d say the devs may have forgotten about whatever was implemented into the game first and just made a mistake.
I only noticed this myself while starting a new playthrough this evening!
"Won't be near as long as the school of the wolf" scrolls down and sees school of the wolf video...
Yeah haha I decided that instead of telling you a brief overview of the characters that they deserve their own individual character videos, My school of the wolf video has basically become a short series of videos, describing characters and other information that deserves it's own video, for example Kaer Morhen.
Thanks for showing that clip geralts run Lmao and that battle cry I'm dead
School of the Bear, all the way. Anything that uses heavy armor is always my jam.
Great opening intro, nice presentation of Viper school. Well done.
I honestly just see the viper school as a guild of assassin's, much like the cat school. Now before anyone gets the wrong idea, I know they're monster slayers just like the other school, but one cannot simply ignore the trail of corpses you find everytime you stumble on to the path of one of these witchers
Very true, but that's only because of the emperor ordering them to kill the northern kings, Geralt has also done his fair share of human killings as well. But I definitely see where you are coming from.
WitcherGeorge true, though with garalt most of the time when he kills someone it's because they really pissed him off, or just flat out attacked him. Not exactly the same as head hunting, but I see the comparison you're making.
Well there was that one time with radavid but he had it coming.
school of the cat had a flaw in their recipe in trial of grasses, which meddled with their witchers' emotions instead of dulling them... so most of cat school witchers came out as impulsive and short tempered - hence the human killings. Vipers were just caught by the balls and ordered what to do... caught between a rock and a hard place
Love the video . Cant wait for you to do the school of the Griffin. If i was a Witcher thats the school i would wanna be in. Unfortunately im black lol, so even if i did exist in the Witcher universe. I would be most likely somewhere in Africa, so probably wouldn't be a Witcher anyway. And you got a new subscriber.
cecil cooksey dude you could totally be in the witcher universe!
The Witcher world doesn't have an equivalent to Africa as far as we know. You would likely hail from Kovir and there would be no reason you couldn't be a witcher =P
I'm not black but one of the first things I thought when playing the game was how annoying it would be to be playing it as a black person. Talk about fantasy destroying! Still man, it's a fantasy universe.... of course there can be Witchers with black skin!
I mean there is a continent roughly resambling Africa. Zerrikania(don't know how to spell it in english) from which Azar Javed from W1 hailed from.
Hunter Henderson what are you talking about me saying i probably wouldnt be witcher has nothing to do with my skin pigment its the location
Here's a question: Do you think letho's size is due to his mutations, a bit like Geralt's white hair?
The other Viper School Witchers we see are of a more normal stature. Maybe some experimental mutations?
Possibly it would explain why he's very close to Geralt's level
Letho is a master tactician and all around VERY smart guy. He uses his bulky appearance to dupe people into thinking he is just a brute, but if you played Witcher 2 you know that he can outsmart even sorceresses. So yeah, favorite of all Witchers except Geralt maybe.
im wondering why they didn't use the same animation style in cutscenes of witcher 3. Those animated scenes were so good!! Would love to see an animated series of witcher.
Your videos make me happy, Inspired me to start reading the books and Im already on tower of swallow
Love how that guy at 0:45 just drank his wine like all this was just an average Tuesday
First playthrough and I just randomly found letho out their reardon manor . Had to find out more.
I love that Letho is the only witcher from his school that uses swords XD
When u breakdown the details of TW2 cinematic intro u can definitely see that the school of the viper gears itself to taking down the wild hunt.
Did you know that, if you dont visit the woman who you take the quest from, you actually have to fight the specters there and Letho quest is kinda getting missed. So be careful players who explore the place BEFORE meeting the woman with that quest or you will miss the Letho quest.
“Bow low, for you stand before a crowned head”-letho
Dudes a badass character
In reference to the Scandinavian warriors, Ivar was, “the boneless,” and Sigurd was, “Snake in the Eye.”
That scene was still the coolest thing I've ever seen.... my boii post spin moved that arrow so flawlessly.
Idk where the school of the bear resides but it looks like it would be in Skellige.
Thanks for the video. Have to disagree on the reason for the school though. All the schools were created to fight the monsters. Schools may have had additional focuses and rules but they are all created for monster hunting after the conjunction of spheres. I was really looking forward to a lot of Witcher 2 cutscenes and such on this one. You probably don’t have it which is why you just showed 3 for Lethos. If you do though, please use it in other videos. I have played 3 multiple times and seen so many videos on it. I played the other two but that was so many years ago. I’ll bet most watching your videos haven’t and would love to see 1 & 2 footage too.
Shame that mysterious viper witcher just died like that, we didn't even know his name. Clearly his sword fightingt skill is beyond Geralt's level.
Di Bo doubt it, Geralts the white wolf ffs. They just wanted to show there was stakes, and just had that gold throwing bit in because it looks cool
@الجنرال -general Someones salty
Letho has always seemed so menacing to me because he has brute strength to rival the Mountain from Game of Thrones but at the same time being a witcher is incredibly agile and stealthy. Additionally, his role in the regicides and then managing to successfully doublecross the Lodge of Sorceresses, capturing Triss Merigold and (if Geralt allows it) killing Shiela de Tancarville, it all shows he is extremely intelligent and adept at manipulating people. And he fights smart. For example, when he went up against Triss, someone objectively way more powerful than him, he ambushed her and struck too fast for her to cast a spell.
Letho defeated geralt in witcher 2 so i think its safe to say the school of the viper produce the most skilled and talented witchers in history with the exception of geralt himself of course but overall the viper school had the best witchers also letho wasnt a bad guy just extremely loyal to his school of the viper to the point he was willing to kill kings to have his viper school restored
Technically Geralt can then defeat letho later in the witcher 2!
WitcherGeorge true they can defeat eachother better to say
Rick_Genest_fangirl #IAmNotAMonsterSCHIZOPHRENIA he already defeated geralt though of course he can beat him lol letho won the first fight geralt won the second
Geralt had amnesia though. Not exactly his peak.
Ya know, I always try to play the games as closely to the canon as I can , but Letho really has grown on me. But the games "canon" really are just what you make it to be. I think on my next playthrough I'm gonna simulate and make sure that he's there for the battle of Kaer Morhen. I remember that I had him alive on my first playthrough but after that I didn't really connect with him. After all these years I think I will really appreciate his character much more.
And besides, who doesn't want more witchers in the game!
Sapkowski didnt bring the school of viper, but he brought the school of cat, but not in a novel or short story, but rather in a comic book, the only one with original scenario by him
The Cat school was the school known for assassinations, the school of the viper wasn't an evil school or even known for assassination, they only did it in exchange to have their guild rebuilt as promised from Nilfgaard.
Omg geralts reaction to the bodies 😂 like who what where when how whats happening here..... oh AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
This is still in my top 10 most bad ass opening cinematic
just started playing Witcher 3.
MLPDethDealr32 enjoy 😉
I wish I could experience this game for the first time again
try to enjoy every second of it
im going to , might do a playthrough when im done. Trying to branch out from my usual content.
Ahhh the first time experiencing the witcher universe
This is my new favorite channel.
Thank you man!
God, geralt looks so young. He's like a baby!
Dude that intro was so 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Damm, they should have made the amulet a face of a viper. That would have been cooler
It would've looked cool!
Just saying this right now (I'm only about at 8:30), the School of the Viper seems to prefer dual-wielding shorter blades and using magical/alchemical items more than using Signs or full-length blades.
This can potentially be a reference to viper's fangs and their potent venom (Two short blades=two fangs, alchemy and magical items can be venomous or have other hazardous effects). I can only imagine the kind of bombs and blade oils that the School of the Viper developed, both for use against monsters and humans. Oils that debilitate and cripple, bombs that confuse, impair, or mutilate.
Can you do school of the bear? Btw great video :D
I will for the next time I do a schools video!
Svalblod...Svalblod!!! We summon thy power!!!
This video made me go play the Witcher 2 on series X after all these years… and boy while not as polished as the Witcher 3 it’s a great game. Well worth it 🍷
