I am going to skip ahead to some newer stuff!!
Skip to Annie:Origins - this is the absolute best cinematic ever created (opinions may vary)
I personally don't recommend that, yes there are many short ones that are just character reveals for when they those characters came out and many longer ones have a story that you have to read into instead of just being told exactly what is going on, if you skip forward you might miss some that you would like, sure it will take a while for you to watch them all, but I think it would be worth it in the end.
It's okay to not like some of the videos, it's "your" reaction to the video and if you don't understand somethings then I am sure there are a number of people willing to explain in the comments
Here is a list I would watch if you want to focus on the lore. They are in publishing order but if you want I can organize them by region so they might have more connection. And I can only say that the Legends of Runeterra videos should be the last ones after these. They very much give a dot to our current story. I used the original video's timestamps.

The Path, An Ionian Myth | Spirit Blossom 2020 Animated Trailer - League of Legends
Kin of the Stained Blade | Spirit Blossom 2020 Cinematic - League of Legends
Magic is Rising: Stand With Sylas | League of Legends older video but also very lore based.
And Legends of Runeterra videos. Not the music video trailer, it is only a cool showcase of available cards.
I also recommend watching em all in order, makes it easier to understand some of the newer ones
Ahri in League of Legends (a Fox with 9 tails) is based on Korean mythology. (Yes, they have their own Fox with several tails in each region)
Get Jinxed _is_ a real song, by virtue of it being composed for her
🙄you know what I meant 🤣🤣
@@HannaHsOverInvested It's also royalty free. All of League of Legends songs are, that I know of.
Ahri ( the fox lady) is indeed based on Kitsune & Gumiho folktales from Japan and Korea respectively.
Ohhh interesting!!

The Path, An Ionian Myth | Spirit Blossom 2020 Animated Trailer - League of Legends
Kin of the Stained Blade | Spirit Blossom 2020 Cinematic - League of Legends
Magic is Rising: Stand With Sylas | League of Legends older video but also very lore based.
And aslo all LoR videos
Story based videos will be in future like "Tales of Runeterra" series, music videos and other things also have some story background
You should watch at least "Kin of the stained blade" it is one of the newest
Thanks!!
@@HannaHsOverInvested yeah the tales of runeterra videos are all story focused so you would probably enjoy them more.
I agree. Even if you watch nothing else from league of legends, I highly reccommend watching 'Kin of the Stained Blade'.
If you want, 'The path, an Ionian Myth' is a short precursor to it. Theres no real dialogue but it does convey a fair bit about one of the characters in 'Kin of the Stained Blade'. Also the animation is wonderful.
@@HannaHsOverInvested do not expect WoW level of story. League of Legends clips are unrelated to each other most of the time and very light headed. So dont expect too much from them. Also there are 150+ playable characters and they all are from different regions of Runeterra (the world in which events take place) and all regions are very different. In comparison to WoW the world of Runeterra is very bitty (I dont really know that word, sorry for my English). There are no defined general story, but instead a lot of little stories (unlike wow).
Also League of Legends is very famous for its music.
@@HannaHsOverInvested You should go to LoL universe and read the lore there, there is a novelle and a book that explains the world too.
when ahri's eyes went pink she charmed them to chase her and stopped them from killing leona
In my opinion the best story-containing trailers in this universe are the "Legends of Runeterra" series. They are technically for the card game, but they have all the same heroes and they tell actual stories.
Thanks!
"Did she just die? I THOUGHT THE SHINY THING PROTECTED HER!"
Me with a thousand games on Leona dying in 3 seconds: Yeah me too
The League of Legends cinematics usually revolve character promotion for an upcoming playable unit, some cosmetic skins, or major changes (like the 'New Dawn' one you watched in this video being an introduction to the visual overhaul they gave the main map a couple of years back). If you want 'the crispy bits' related to the lore of the game, I suggest watching the Legends of Runeterra cinematics instead. It's the same universe, but LoRs trailers are more heavily focused on telling a story, rather than being a showcasing reel of shiny new products.
There are 4, that I recall, for LoR; True Genius, The Lesson, After Victory, and The Vaulted Road. Rather than being fantastical slugfests, they delve into the minds of one or two characters, or a story beat, and showcase their place in the world with a little neat story.
Additionally, League of Legends does have a recently added cinematic called 'Kin of the Stained Blade' which is probably their best cinematic. It revolves around a dishonored samurai being chased by the ghosts of his past. It's visually stunning and the story in it is very reminiscent of something you'd see in Overwatch cinematics.
Addendum: Call of Power is also rather neat. A treasure hunt that showcases some of the various areas and champions while telling the story of the magus, Ryze.
Well, whats about "Noone escape"? It tells the story of both Shadow Isles and Bilgewater (Buhuru Isles)
The first was a introduction of a new champion "Jinx" back in the day and they made the music and animation for it, there is plenty of them for champions and world championships, now they are making a K-pop band with the ingame characters called "KDA"one of their better songs is "popstars", if you want story and character development watch annies origin story :p, fun videos keep it up :)!
True...that Annie animation slaps
Interesting. And thank youuu!!
Also plentikill rock music videos
@@Tzimisce_Joe *pentakill
Jinx's video was more of a Character introduction, same with the tiny animal introducing Braum the guy with the shield (which was actually a door that was indestructible, so he just carries it with him and uses as such XD)
Most of the earliest videos were trying to depict the nonsense that happens in the actual game. I've always been a fan of the actual characters and their stories, which thankfully, recently, have been getting a LOT more development and attention for lore and worldbuilding
They're even getting ready to release a new series called Arcane I'm very excited about!
vel'koz doesn't eat but breaks down things into molecules to KNOW about them.
"Gimme something to get attached to" trust me Braum is husband material
Braum looks like a max level french dude
The game used to be very generic in its stories and characters, but more recent cinematics (2017-2020 ish) do focus more on actually telling a story instead of selling a character. It's pretty much a different game now since all the old lore has been changed and I still recommend the legends of runeterra stories or the more recent character cinematics like annie.
You mean, they focus more on selling a Character by telling a Story :P
@@mathiash.1379 lel true but i mean champs like jhin or brand have a good lore and not like seraphine that just sings (btw i don't know her lore)
There was meaning behind the jinx one. It was choppy because she is a chaotic woman who blows everything up so the song reflects the havoc
Fun fact about purple alien: He's called Vel'Koz, he's from the Void, and he has an ability called Lifeform Disintegration Ray. And one of my favourite lines is 'After disintegration, both halves cannot be joined back'. So go figure how he conducts his experiments.
More os the story based videos are
Call of power (trailer of champion ryze)
Kin of stained blades
All of star guardians trailers (its a line of cosmetic skin, their story is on a parallel universe to the main one)
All of the trailers for Legends of Runeterra (their card game, which is more lore based then the main game)
I def skipping a head.
There is a realm in Runeterra called the Void. Many creatures come from it. You can tell a character is from there when their name has a ' in it.
Cho'Gath
Vel'Koz
Kog'Maw
Kai'Sa. (she is a victim of the void and fights against it.)
League of Legends music is really good they produce their own music videos and songs also they don't copyright any of their stuff
My favorite league trailer is for odyssey skin theme, its like a space crew intorductio, its sympathic!
League has over 150 champions with each having it's own lore and story. Most of the lore is written on their universe website, so it will be very hard to figure it out just by watching videos, but there are definitely some very good videos that deserved to be seen by all... and even if you decide to absolutely drop out of league at the very minimum watch Annie: Origins
i love how all you got from rengar was fear and "nice braids" xD
same
The fox myth you were thinking of was the Kitsune, which is a Japanese myth about how foxes have mystical powers, to oversimplify.
For the Vel'koz character intro vid he didn't eat his brain but he does have a phrase he says in game that'll clarify how he obtained the knowledge he needed from the guard "Knowledge through... Disintegration"
The story of Runeterra (League of Legends world where the characters live) needs a whole animated series, it's crazy good, kind of Game of Thrones, a whole world with it's own map,cities, it's own history. The latest animated videos and music videos show some parts of the story tho.
You've finally been introduced to Riot Music Team, the real big-shots.
Every animatic that Riot has made has a backround story. If you wanna know more about the champions you can find the Lore on their website (I think, I havent really checked), (we call their stories lore) all combined we call them *Legends of Runeterra*, theres no chapters in The Legends of Runeterra so its confusing and you can start at any lore, Garen has Novel Series its connected to Demacia and Noxus Stories. (Sorry for my english if Its confusing, I’m confusing myself to ;-;)
There is one series of videos which has a continuing storyline, based around the champions Lucian, Senna, and Thresh.
In order, they are The Climb, Dark Passage, and Senna: Shadow's Embrace.
If you are after a more self-contained story, then I can highly recommend it! It's also a beautiful story about revenge and love
In terms of league content, most of their content doesn't offer much story. There's a specific cinematic called Ryze: Call of Power that delves more into lore and character building than most of them and I think that cinematic specifically would be much more up your alley. There's also The Path: an Ionian Myth and Kin of the Stained Blade, two related cinematics that explore the bloody past between two wayward samurai brothers in the league universe.
There isn't a music video for it, but Vi also has her own song called "Here Comes Vi". :)
Honestly, the past few years' music videos are much better than these older LoL trailers that are just fights. A lot of the music videos, like Awaken, Take Over, and As We Fall, are kind of like mini stories.
While people have recommended some excellent League videos to react too. I also recommend reacting to some of Necrit's videos.
Leagues lore is spread out through many different sources and Necrit is the premier League lore specialist.
His videos are very well organized and generally comprehensive
A lot of these old videos were made back when League literally didn't have lore. They were just rule of cool disjointed character. About 3 ish years ago they did a massive world building overhaul and are even now still rewriting and reworking characters.
Hard to get the story from cinematics cause most of them just showcase some of the characters you can play in the game. But they are still cool nonetheless. You might wanna check some lore of league of legends explained video or something. Cause most of the story is written in each characters bio in game or on the website.
Most of the old League of Legends video are music video or combat cinematic.
The one you should see are some characters cinematic like Annie: Origins (I'm sure you will like this one), Senna or Warwick.
The most recent cinematic combat are worth too (Awaken and Warriors) because of there quality.
But I think the video you will like from League of Legends are Annie (already mentionne) and the Tales of Runeterra (there is 8 videos : "Demacia", "Freyljord", "Shadow Isles", "Noxus" (my favorite), "Piltover and Zaun", "Ionia", "Bilgewater" and "Targon).
The Ruin King Season start a series of conected trailers. Starts with final of The Climb, and continues from there. Reaally great.
One of my favorite is the ekko trailer. It’s worth watching on a video.
Newer stuff has a lot more stories as their trailers/just story cinematics, especially with things like "The Ruined King" coming out
its comparable to the early WoW trailers, games back then locked most story in the gameplay and went with the "rule of cool" in cinematics. there will be good cinematics later, this is the 2010-2013 era you watched, the 2018-2020 stuff is really great tho
CG to 6K 👌🖖
Thank youuuuu!!!!
Nuevamente un video genial, solo ella puede alegrar tanto un domingo.
There is a cinematic called: kin of the stained blade, it's league longest cinematic(10 min) and has a solid story, please watch it
The newer stuff has more short stories kinda like overwatch shorts. specially the tales of runeterra series and some of the newer trailers as im sure you already heard. But league has too vast a roster of characters for any of them to be the "main character" there are many bad guys and many good guys many of them neutral. youll get shorter very good stories in the future stuff. i see other people have mentioned tales of runeterra just wanted to also mention it to +1 it. they really are good
Katarina is a bad guy, she is an assassin (she is the woman carrying around the daggers)
Ahri is a nine-tailed fox, that is why you get those vibes of Japanese mythology (though in this world it is because of her genetics)
Leona is the Aspect of the Sun, which is kind of like a god (heavily armored woman) She climbed a very dangerous mountain, filled with various trials to test those who would be worthy and unworthy. When she reached the top she was imbued with "divine" power from a celestial being, and thus became what she is now
the singer of get jinxed is a norwegian metal artist! she's amazing
if you like reading, go to their universe page there all the champions (with some minor exception) have their backstory and lore expanded, it's basically an entire world and a whole lot of hidden gem. my favorite is probably Viktor's (he a champion) stories, House on Emberlift Alley. if u like reading and want inspiration then Universe is the place.
A lot of characters of LOL is based on something or some concept.
About over aching stories, the videos serves as introduction, the tales and stories are on their website, so us as players can feel for our champions. My favorite are the kindred, their history is fantastic
Thanks!!
Best way for you to get attached a d learn about the champions in league, is to watch the Champion Spotlights. You'll get a bit of back story and learn about their abilities in game
Thanks!!
I would advice to leave the "good guys" and "bad guys" thing to the side.
The more "light" side like the warrior that the redhead fought in a previous video is also responsible for locking up magic users just because they have magic for example.(even though his sister is a mage and he protects her)
My favorite moment in all of League cinema is, to this day, Leona giving no fucks and just running through the tree when Kat and Ahri went over/under it.
I think you'd really appreciate 'Annie: Origins'. Very good not-on-the-nose visual storytelling. Then there are also the 'Tales of Runeterra' shorts. And 'Curse of the Sad Mummy' tells the background story of a character in its lyrics.
That's pretty much it in terms of pure story as far as i'm aware.
I am.lookong forward to watching the Annie one.
If you want a story in league with names, plot and everything else you want, you can watch
"Kin of the stained blade"
And you can go the official league of legend site and read their comics
yeah! Ahri (fox girl) is based on Chinese myth about nine-taled fox spirit (it's called Huli jing). Kitsune it's just fox in japanese
And there is almost no main storyline in cimenatics. Almost all of them is separate stories about various champions from game.
At the point of content you are looking at, they still have not figured out where they want to go story wise. It was 2015 or 2016 when they finally found their direction. But keep in mind the game has 151 character right now with another coming in a few weeks to be 152. So while some do come up more, they try to spread the love a bit.
As others have mentioned, the cinematics & cinematics with music are their lore/story based videos. Usually us League fans explain the story within the video/explain who the characters are. Looks like no one has explained the characters just yet so I will :D
Ahri = 9 tailed fox character
Leona = the woman with the giant shield at the beginning & end
Zyra = Poison Ivy looking woman
Jax = The first character who got killed by the anchor/has that staff weapon
Draven = The guy with the spinning blades for weapons
Darius = The guy with the giant axe
Nautlius = The character with the giant anchor
Graves = The man with the shotgun
Katarina = The one you initially thought was a bad woman ( she's an assassin in game )
Rengar = The cat/lion looking character ( another assassin in game )
I believe that's all of the characters for THIS specific cinematic.
The problem for a newcomer with many of these cinematic videos is that it already takes it for granted you know all these characters. You kinda know their powers and you will recognize them use these powers that you can use yourself in the game. And even for new champions (like the jinx music video) most of their story is actually written in text and not in these videos.
Another problem is that some trailers are just showing of a new skin for a particular champion(or several), which has nothing to do with the actual lore of the game itself, this can be extremely confusing at times, for example in a upcoming video it will just be a music video with some champions being like a metal band, which has literally nothing to do with the rest of the game.
You're watching the earlier videos of League of Legends. The format was more showcase than story-driven back then. Of course, the more recent stuff is similar to overwatch with more....music?!?! There are also story-based ones that are pretty cool.
If you want some stories, you should check out "Tales of Runeterra"
Amumu and Annie trailers are the kind of trailers i think you would enjoy ^^
Amumu: th-cam.com/video/0AvWV6Mk374/w-d-xo.html
Annie: th-cam.com/video/aUTU-GnxVuM/w-d-xo.html
Annie was the one with the bear right?
@@HannaHsOverInvested Yes, she has her own cinematic which dives into her backstory
the problem for league of legends is that it is a 5v5 game where each player can play a hero from the roester, but that means there is no main storyline of the game. so most of the trailers have some combat showing off the characters and their main abilities but not much more story than that. Only the most recent trailers are more story based and reach into the backstory of some champions.
Every single character has a unique fully defined personality and back story even every single skin of them. They r related to each other 2 and react 2 each others backstory. FE evelynn has slained vayns parents and when they collide in game they have special dialogs going on for this. Darius and draven are brothers one is an evil executioner and the other is an honorable fighter and ....
To learn about champions and their lore you can either read about it on LoL's website or watch one of the youtubers that sums it up for you (my recommendation is Necrit).
I have a suggestion!! There is this website where you can read everything about the lore and background behind the world of league of legends. It has very many resources such as pictures, maps, and short stories of each characters that of which i know you would really love to read.
The site is.... universe.leagueoflegends.com/en_US/
I am so sorry! TH-cam flagged this because of the link. Thank you!
Yay more LOL !! you should look at ffxiv the cg is so good
Thanks!
Most of these are story backgrounds to understand it when they are brought together nobody has confusion like i did for WoW but no worries even i eventually came to understand lore for that game through hearthstone oddly enough it was my intro to the game also yes even i dont know much for it but its a good enough amount to work with 👌
tl;dr just read my last sentence :)
Early league videos themselves don't have story per se , they touch and tease on small story bits which are all found in short stories from Riot. They have a website containing all the stories into one place and even put them on a map to have a visual of where they happen.
(Universe.LeagueOfLegends.com)
Over the past few years Riot has been reworking the story of League of Legends and only recently have created animations for the story. There was supposed to be an animated series coming out this year but with everything going on that didn't happen.
As you've prolly seen from other comments, the "Tales of Runeterra" series is most likely up your alley. It's a series of videos promoting the story of League. BTW League of Legends the game proper has little to no involvement in the story. League of Legends is like "what happens if we put character A against character B" sorta thing.
The confusing part can be the other universes Riot has created. You have the main League of Legends universe and then you have spin offs. This is the result of Riot creating in-game skins for characters, they wanted to make each skin have its own lore and some became more popular than others.
Such universes that diverge from the main is:
PROJECT: cyberpunk theme, memories of the past
Odyssey: riots take on guardians of the galaxy
Starguardian: magical girl anime, hired Hiroyuki Sawano to make music for them
An Elder Scrolls fan here. I don't know if you've gotten around to The Elder Scrolls Online yet, I know I've commented before, and I apologize for a possibly last minute request: the announcement trailer. I know it's not a cinematic trailer. I thought about it, re-watched it, and thought it was like a pre credit scene for the first four cinematic trailers. Imagine the opening, pre credit scene of the movie Stargate with a voice over.
Ahri: Nine tailed fox, mythology from Asian cultures, charms young men to their death.
You gotta admit that, Darius (Axe guy) was a tough son of a gun.
For the fox, it's got a few names in mythologies. Kumiho in Korean, Kitsune in Japanese, or just nine-tailed fox
i think u would enjoy the newer stuff more and maybe check out individual characters story and voicelines which highlights their store aloot more :)
I get your feeling of god damn it this is too short to be narratively good
Nice! You have to watch "call of power" i think it's one of the best story cinematics.
Ahahah this was recommended to me, ahah I would love to see youe reaction to get jinx, now that you saw Arcane 😁 that music hits so diferent after Arcane
Watch "The Curse of the Sad Mummy". It's one of their best story-driven songs.
Lots of cinematics you are missing that are absolute master pieces kinda wished you would get to those someday :c
I will
@@HannaHsOverInvested Glad to hear that, I understand how it is to not have any context on what you're seeing, but it's still worth a watch and the community will let know everything you need for sure !
Yes, the red haired girl, Katarina, is the one who fought that guy, Garen, in the previous video.
And the nine tailed fox is called Ahri is based on the nine tailed fox or gumiho in Japanese folklore. A lot of characters were based on different mythologies or fictional characters. And as some people mentioned, the more recent videos are better story wise.
Watch the Origin stories if you are looking for character developement. Annie and Amumu are great ones. The newest video Kin of the Stained Blade has voice over and names. I think when they did the early videos they were to promote the game and most people that played the games knew the names. I think you would really get a kick out of Kin of the Stained Blade. But their other major videos are music videos but they are exceptionally well done and while they do tell a story you wouldnt know the story without some outside context from within the game itself.
I will watch the Annie one for sure.
@@HannaHsOverInvested The art style in that one is fantastic, I think you will enjoy that one a lot. Kin of the Stained Blade is more like the Overwatch stuff you like as well. Very close to the dragon brothers one.
if u want a storyline in league, watch tales of runeterra. guaranteed u'll enjoy! love ur content!
Riot Games & Netflix has made a Tv- Series on League aswell Called Arcade. That is Amazing 3 Episodes out so far released 3 days ago.
YesArhi is the 9 tailed fox of "asin" mythology. These teaser trailers suoopert game releases or new season openings. You should watch "Rise" and "KDA"
Early League of Legends was all about being that cool game everyone should be playing. Now League of Legends has way better lore. In fact, that´s probably the best part.
The word you were looking for to define (ahri) fox lady, was Kitsune
HELLO ! check out destiny 2 forsaken fall of the cayde 6 -
background : ( he is a hunter as a character in game he was human before and he died 6 times and that's why his name is cayde '6' and he had a son named ACE when he was a human, but he can only remember his name and he doesn't know that ACE was his son's name ! you will understand after you watch the video.)
you can also watch a video full of his cutscene he has a personality like deadpool in the game. you will like it !
not sure if anyone else mentioned but the multitailed fox is a Kitsune. EDIT. finished watching and now see that you did find it :)
The LoL trailers don't really have a story but they have really good songs :)
Leona: Good thing I bought Guardian Angel!
you often say about league " i want more character developpment" the thing is with champion trailer, they are teaser of the champion before their release. You should watch other cinematics than just champion trailer
A lot of games did not focus on story telling in their showcase cinematics/ads several years ago. Even World of Warcraft had a few ads back in the day (Check out "10 Funniest World of Warcraft Commercials") that were comical showcases of different classes/races/factions. For WoW at least, you have been watching expansion cinematics (come out about every two years when the content of the game gets expanded to get everyone hyped for the new content) and the more recently developed in-game cinematics (mostly from the Legion, Battle for Azeroth, and now Shadowlands expansions but there are a few from the older expansions like the fall of the Lich King that you may want to watch).
A lot of games now are 10+ years old with the more story focused ads/cinematics being from the last 5 or so years. So if you feel like giving up on a game's cinematics, I suggest doing a tiny bit of research to pick out a few more recent cinematics before throwing in the towel.
Also, I personally would love to see you do a series on the videos of very story driven games like Horizon Zero Dawn ("Horizon Zero Dawn All Cutscenes (Game Movie)" ~6 hours) and God of War 4 ("GOD OF WAR 4 - Full Movie All Cutscenes" ~6 hours) where most of the gameplay is cut so you can focus on the story being told. These are very long but I think you would really enjoy them.
If you wanna get pinched in the gut with feels go for Annie:Origins. Best lore video
The fox thing your thinking of is Kitsune.
the newer stuff is definitely more story and character focused than spectacle focused.
have you thought about doing video game opening cinematics rather than trailers? They are short movies at the beginning of the game and are completely story driven so seem much more what you are looking for. as a bonus they usually use in-game music which shouldnt get you muted, unlike trailers which usually use licenced tracks.
I've done one or two of those before and really enjoyed it. They just don't get requested as often so I guess I don't think of it.
I want that shirt!
Poor darius, his team couldn't even let darius 1v1 Ahri, looks like classical league
Kin of the staned blade is a good one if you like more story
Basically 'Sucker Punch' League Style (Jinx vid)
The interesting league videos won't come till much later btw. At this point in time (~2013) Riot hadn't really consolidated the many different regions of their game into a coherent world and narrative. The real good story stuff doesn't start until late 2014/early 2015, which means you have ~10 mins of video before you get to the stuff you'll really enjoy.
I'm gonna skip ahead.
If you want cinematics that expand on the world and the lore of Runeterra (League of Legends world) you'll be better served with the most recent videos. The first cinematics were more like fan service and advertisement for the game, only recently did Riot Games start to actually expand on the lore and effectively creating cinematics that tell stories about their champions' backgrounds.
Also, you probably stopped right before a pair of cinematics that you would have like. The 2 Shurima videos were their first lore base videos and they were actually pretty good.
Oh really???? Hmmmmmm I may try the next two but I was feeling a little burn out there and I didn't want to risk over doing it.
Remember dis move! Yeah I remember that move that is kogmaw's passive.
Awesome video! Your next reaction should be Team Fortress 2. It’s the game that popularised the animated shorts for videos game’s back in 2009 and they still hold up. It’s a game where lore is the not the primary focus but it’s there if you wish to learn it. The videos you should watch are the Meet the Team videos (which is a playlist which introduces to each character, don’t worry it’s only 9), Expiration Date, End of the Line and Jungle Inferno. If you do want more of a story read the comics on their website will give a lot of information but if you don’t feel like reading you can always listen to dubs of the comics that fans of made.
Anyways keep up the great videos!
Thanks!!
