Thanks for checking out our reaction to League of Legends cinematics! If you’re a fan of Arcane, we’ve also reacted to episodes 1-3, and it would be awesome if you gave those a look! Let us know in the comments what other League of Legends videos you’d like us to react to next!
Dude with the book is Faker. Arguably the greatest player to ever play the game. His team literally just won the World Championship today. It's his fifth world title and a record. He's the Jordan of League. Edit: I said arguably because contrarian trolls will argue his status against like Dopa or someone else. I obviously don't believe there are any other players even close to being in contention for the title of GOAT.
He's the only one who has 5 Worlds Cups, sooo... no, is no arguably, it's a fact that he is, at this moment, the greatest pro player of LoL, obviusly I'm saying PRO player.
Bilgewater. Demacia. Noxus. Ionia. Ixtal. Piltover/Zaun. Shadow Isles. Are all major areas of Runeterra (the world all everything is happening in). Each has its own thing going on with smaller areas in between them. All of them tho interact and exist on Runeterra. If you want a interactive map there is an official one (Map of Runeterra - Universe - League of Legends). There you can see where everything is, where all main characters come from, and links to stories and such. Hope you enjoy your dive into the world/lore. Enjoy :D
Rise is the story of Ambition (the oldest professional LOL player at the time) winning his first World Championship. They make one esports related every Worlds.
"Vi" is pronounced /vai/. You hear the characters say it in the show. Whatever blue crystals you saw in The Call, it's not the same as the hextech crystals. "Phoenix" is not a character. Just the name of the song.
Warriors Lore It consists of three different stories. The opening story is the land of Demacia which highlights 4 champions, Garen, Lux, Galio and Sylas. Garen is the big soldier & top general of the demacian army, Lux is the lady with the magic wand and Galio is the statue that arrives at the end. The people attacking are led by Sylas who used to be a demacian, but was exiled and enslaved by the nation because he saved two kids who were being hunted by Demancian mageseekers, thus also revealing he had magic powers himself. Sylas magic allows him to steal powers of other champs in-game, which is why you see a yellow sword animate after he knocks back Garen. Sylas does not like demacia and wants to tear down everything it represents. The land of Demacia does not like magic and forbids it. They are deemed a noble and righteous nation, but truly hate magic and magic users. Though some can do so because of their notability and family ties, they are allowed not to be persecuted aka Lux is an example. Galio is basically a huge statue that represents the nation of Demacia and can be activated in two ways, one is he will animate and come alive if he detects any magic users nearby or if he is called upon (also demacia and noxus are bitter rivals as nations). The second story I will just go over but opens up with some henchman walking up towards a person called Urgot. This story includes, as you know, Caitlyn, Vi, and Urgot. You already know Caitlyn and Vi, but Urgot is new obviously. Urgot used to be a high end - executioner (meaning high nobility) for the land of Noxus (referenced in Arcane by Mels mother). Noxus as a nation can be slightly hard to explain. Overall they are viewed as an evil, expansionist nation that likes war. But internally they just value strength above all else. Ironically and not to retcon the show, they offer any many new nations they conquer a chance to join the nation of Noxus from lowest citizen to highest official. If you can do something and you have the willpower to show your value, you will do well. In short they are a meritocracy which values individuals abilities, strength and talents vs wealth, social class or race. One its highest generals - Darius, started out in the slums in Noxus with his brother Draven and they worked their way up to the highest rank of the army. In short, if you are weak, you will not survive in Noxian society. Back to Urgot He was tricked by Swain who wanted to become a general of the Noxus, and Swain sent Urgot to Piltover/Zaun to hunt down a traitor of Noxus. Urgot didn't realize he was set up, so he was captured and sent to the mines of Zaun where his body was worn and torn. Eventually Urgot realized the mines made him stronger and considered parts of his body weak so he mechanically altered himself over time. He eventually became a warrior of the chembarons of Zaun, but Piltover locked him up which is why the henchmen are trying to release him. The last story includes Ezreal and Kai’sa. To keep it short, Ezreal is just a person who likes to travel the land and find old relics. He is attacked by Voidlings which are from “The Void.” and he is saved by Kai’sa. Kai’sa is from one of the most ancient lands of Runeterra called “Shurima. LONG ago, a majority of the land was literally sucked up by “The Void” and Kai’sa village went under. Kai’sa only survived because she decided to go deeper into the void and eventually a piece of the void combined with her skin and transformed her; it gave her abilities and after escaping from the Void, she has vowed to defend all of Runeterra from any future Void events. (In league of legends lore, there are a few world ending events that can happen and “The Void” is one of them. Only way to defeat it would be that all of Runeterra would have to come together to fight the Void.) Awaken Lore Again consist of three stories. The opening story takes place in the nation of Piltover at a theater. It includes two champions called Jhin and Camille. Jhin basically is a serial killer who gets thrilled off killing people. He is being hunted by Camille who is a leader of Piltover police. She has altered her body with hextech as she wants to be superior to others, more specifically to catch stronger and more bad people who could be stronger than her if she didn’t have the hextech.The second story takes place in a colosseum in the land of Noxus. The two champions here would be Draven and Riven. Draven, as mentioned above, worked his way up along with his brother Darius to high ranks in the Noxian military. He is enjoying a fight and the lady who pops up is Riven, she used to be Noxian but she witnessed a biochemical terror attack that killed many Ionians and Noxians alike. She went on self-imposed exile to seek atonement and find a way to serve her vision of the Pure Noxian spirit but the nation accused her of deserting thus she was a fugitive until captured. The last story takes place in an area called Ionia. In a way, think of a more tranquil part of the land, Japanese aesthetics. A lot more focus on pursuit of balance in things, from the material and spirit world and a lot more lush mountains, forest and waters. They are under assault from a Noxian attack. This story includes 7 champions, Ireliea lady with the flying swords, Karama who uses the shields, Akali that uses the smoke bomb, Yasuo who uses the sword and causes the tornado, & Kennen who has electricity powers. They are under attack by the Big giant called Sion who is a Noxus general.
Faker is THE GOAT of League he's soooo great that many people think when the day of his retirement arrives the E-Sport Scene will slowly decline, his feats are so great that he became the face of the game and still is the face of the game along with his team T1 composed of the squad named ZOFGK, Z for their Top laner "Zeus", O for their Jungler "Oner", F for "Faker" Their Mid Laner, G For "Gumayusi" their ADC, and K for "Keria" Their Support.
There's only like 4 stories that can animate with lots of characters if you want to know they are: Fall & rise of shurima, demacia mage revolution(my personal favorite), the viego ruination and the noxian wars.
The Call Lore Hairy lava man is a guy named Ornn, God of the forge. He has sworn (and when a god makes an oath, it's basically unbreakable) to never forge another weapon unless the world itself is in imminent danger. Ice lady with the pig is Sejuani, leader of one of the 3 major (human) tribes of the freljord (ice place), the other 2 major tribes being led by her sisters, Ashe and Lissandra (they hate each other, don't ask) Cool Viking guy who throws the axe is olaf, he's on a suicide quest to die in glorious combat because a Seer said he'd die peacefully in his sleep in bed when he was old. The bears are the children of Volibear, storm god (popped up in the clouds briefly), Both Ornn and Volibear are siblings who had a major battle years ago and don't like each other. As stated above, because of how vicious their battle was, Ornn vowed to never forge another weapon again unless he was able to predict a realm ending event happening soon. moving on the Spartan guy, that's pantheon (technically he's a dude possessed by pantheon) and is the god of war, not to be confused with Kratos. he's climbing mount targon (basically mount Olympus) because he hates the other gods, Leona, the sun god pops down to dual him for a bit, then Aurelion Sol (basically the god of anything between this particular solar system to the entire universe, not particularly descriptive, but he's a big space dragon) knocks pantheon off the mountain(technically Sol doesn't like anybody related to Mount Targon, but he was tricked by their rulers and they chained him thus they control him and his powers), causing our boi to lean into his god powers to yeet back up to finish his beef with the gods. Sand place (Shurima) has Taliyah, The earthbender, helping Kai'sa (mutant suit lady) fight the children of Rek'sai (the big monster from the hole) to lure rek'sai out so that Kai'sa can hop into the void to do things and such, meanwhile Taliyah stays behind to seal the hole once kai'sa is in. this is likely the thing leading into future story development, so we don't know a lot of the "whys" yet. Kais'sa for context is from the land of Shruima also which long ago was sucked up by the "Void," Kais'a herself was sucked up when her village went under as a child and she only survived because she decided to go further into the Void, thus she found a piece of the void and it's molded to her body. She eventually escaped the void and has vowed to protect all other realms from the void trying to suck up everything. Basically, the void wants to devour everything it touches.

Some great one’s are “Riot MMO is almost done.” And gives you a great overview of the world of Runeterra. I also highly highly recommend reacting to “Bridging The Rift - Making of Arcane” It is amazing documentary about the making of Arcane and Riot games is very friendly on not copy righting their content.
Are you guys recording the video volume on camera? Why not display the YT video through OBS to get direct sound? Also, change the microphone settings. It picks up static when you guys aren't talking. Need to add some filters to mute the dead air when no one is talking.

LOOK AT THE MOVES, FAKER, WHAT WAS THAAAAAAT
ahem, not just his team, he carried games too, I mean dude's mvp at age of 28 and won 5 of 11 times, nothing else needs to be said.
Not arguably.
He is the GOAT not even a debate tbh. Every pro player thinks so only stupid rival fans would argue about it.
He's the only one who has 5 Worlds Cups, sooo... no, is no arguably, it's a fact that he is, at this moment, the greatest pro player of LoL, obviusly I'm saying PRO player.
Bilgewater. Demacia. Noxus. Ionia. Ixtal. Piltover/Zaun. Shadow Isles. Are all major areas of Runeterra (the world all everything is happening in).

FYI there are a lot of music videos and such that are based on in game skin lines (which is alternate realities of Runeterra).
Rise is the story of Ambition (the oldest professional LOL player at the time) winning his first World Championship. They make one esports related every Worlds.
Arcane is like the origen history from many champions so is like 4 or 5 years in the past from the game present timeline.
Interesting, thanks for the info
Yes, Vi, pronounced VEYE
"Vi" is pronounced /vai/. You hear the characters say it in the show.
Whatever blue crystals you saw in The Call, it's not the same as the hextech crystals.
"Phoenix" is not a character. Just the name of the song.
The awaken cinematic is soo good

Really like the effort guys. Keep going. Good reaction.
Yey new league reaction

It’s mostly just faker + T1 throughout the years, regardless of who the other players are but this might be the best roster in the orgs history.
@endubless I mean... Even they themselves said that they're the best T1 roster ever
There's only like 4 stories that can animate with lots of characters if you want to know they are: Fall & rise of shurima, demacia mage revolution(my personal favorite), the viego ruination and the noxian wars.
Lol is just built diffrent🤘

Lastly I highly recommend reacting “NECRIT”, he is a long time youtuber who’s whole channel is based on league of legends lore and content. Some great one’s are “Riot MMO is almost done.” And gives you a great overview of the world of Runeterra. I also highly highly recommend reacting to “Bridging The Rift - Making of Arcane” It is amazing documentary about the making of Arcane and Riot games is very friendly on not copy righting their content.
