I'd absolutely recommend watching Arcane, you don't have to have played League of Legends to watch it. It's a great TV series in and of itself. Season 2 is coming in November so better get to it!
More songs i think you would enjoy are : The call legends never die warriors (2020) K/DA - MORE True damage - Giants Phoenix Burn it all down HEARTSTEEL - Paranoia
So Riot didn't make a MOVIE buuuuut they did make an absolutely AMAZING show called Arcane I highly recommend y'all react to it or just watch it also it's a great time to watch it cause season 2 is coming out this November and y'all won't have to wait the 2 years we had to bear with
The two spirits you saw are fighting the guy with the sword in the snowy scene are known as Kindred collectively, individually known as Wolf and Lamb. They are League of Legends personification of death, so the man was literally fighting death itself, in order to survive. And the other archer that came after when the smoke/mist vanished is his wife. Other notable characters that it looked like you were interested in are the two angel looking girls who are the sisters Morgana and Kayle, fighting the darkin known as Aatrox.
Welcome to the rabbit hole that is League. Here's a comprehensive list of some of the best cinematics grouped by type and ordered by year so you can see the progression in animation. If you do wind up watching Arcane, I'd suggest skipping the Arcane related because they can give some minor spoilers. Also, the season cinematics tend to be more lore related whereas the Worlds cinematics focus on the players of the esport.

this right here, is most of if not everything. this person got it right. if elin and vilda want to fall down the rabbit hole of league content this list is the one :D
Holy moly, that's an info dump and a half 😂 Also, how come UA-cam allowed you to put links in your comment? When I try to do it my comment always gets shadowbanned 😭
@@AppleBaron No idea. If I had to guess it's either a channel setting preventing posting or some type of algorithm that allows it through after some requirement gets ticked because I've posted this list many, many times. It probably just goes, oh, this again, move along.
That arrow that flashed in front of the screen right before they went from the fire village to the snow area is from the same bow that the spirit called Kindred was using, who is supposed to be like a Grim Reaper type character in League Of Legends, who hunts people whose time it is to die. The guy with the sword, Tryndamere, has an ultimate skill that makes him immune to death in-game. So people always theorized that he was always in a constant battle with Kindred whenever he used his ultimate, because Kindred is always there when it is someone's "time to die" and this cinematic is to give the people who enjoy the story a little more to chew on. They also throw in the sound of Ashe's arrow, who is an entirely different character(the girl with the bow that saved Tryndamere is his wife and they use her ingame ability sound)
Playing League of Legends, watching every cinematic, knowing the lore of most champions gives all these music videos so much more depth. First time listening and seeing the videos is always like "OMG it's champion X, Y and Z and their abilities" and getting goosebumps and everything. And even after listening to it many times, these songs still make you hyped, emotional, energetic and more. It's crazy😮
I started playing League in 2011 and it was a big part of my childhood. I haven't seen a lot of Swedes do this type of content on UA-cam so it was fun stumbling upon this channel.
I started playing League back in 2013.. My fav is Warriors, because it is so nostalgic for me. I always dreamed of being the profesionall player, so the video hyped me a lot 🔥!
Hi, girls, League videos has some categories: - Cinematics, which are usually released between seasons, they focus on the lore/story of the game's characters and the world they live in (like Awaken and Still Here), the League of Legends universe has a lot of interesting stories. - League of Legends World Championship(Worlds) promotional videos, which are usually cool and super motivational songs (great for the gym, really) and the videos try to honor the professional players and their teams, trying to bring together reality and the game world. - And skin lines (which are clothes that the characters can wear in the game), Riot creates a whole concept and stories for them, as if it were a parallel universe, the same characters from the game but with others stories, in the skin videos we have the musical groups, like KDA, which you've already watched, they are a K-pop group(they have others musics, please watch them too), but there are also other music groups like Pentakill, True Damage and Heartsteel. In addition, there are several skin lines that Riot makes videos for, like Star Guardians skins (which are like Sailor Moon) I hope this helps understanding ❤
THERE IS A SERIES, "Arcane" on netflix, only 9 episodes, but probably the best animated series or movie EVER, and even between the non animated franchises it's TOO good. Second season on 9th November.
Still here is definitely my favorite because it's lore accurate. To answer some of your questions, I remember league of legends becoming popular in 2010-2011 and esports really started getting mainstream attention around that time as well in like 2012-2013.
Can you imagine someone there to explain all the lore and references behind each video? Highly recommend that you get someone who understands the game or the lore behind it to collaborate with you. It would make each video you watch that much more meaningful. And like most said, the anime is on Netflix and it's amazing!
At some point you should watch the "Hall of Legends: Faker" video since he is a big part of many of these music videos, he's a very big figure in the community and the video is pretty good at showcasing how much these players have to sacrifice to reach these heights(which is a big theme in almost all of the Worlds songs).
If you guys do want to watch people play, the 2024 world championships is happening now!! The casters do a really good job of explaining everything too. You can also watch Hall of Legends: Faker to get a sense of who T1 and Faker is ... they're truly legendary in League of Legends.
I’d like to explain a bit about the clips, as you may not know much about League of Legends. In the first clip, Rise, we see a professional player representing game characters as he faces off against various other pro players. With each victory, he collects the weapon of his defeated opponent and uses it in future battles. At the end, it’s shown that he and several other players are on a journey to reach the championship trophy. The second clip, Warriors, is a tribute both to the professional players, who dedicate themselves to reaching the top, and to casual players, who helped make the game popular and enabled the competitive scene to exist. This is why the song includes the line: “We are the warriors that built this town, from dust.” In the final clip, Still Here, there’s a lot of game lore involved. First, we see Tryndamere lying on the ground, surrounded by soldiers, and in the background, he sees the shadow of the Kindred, specifically the lamb, who represents death in the League of Legends universe. When someone is about to die, they see the Kindred: if the death is peaceful, it’s an arrow from the Lamb; otherwise, they’re hunted by the Wolf. Following this, we see the sisters Kayle (on the left, dressed in blue and silver) and Morgana (on the right, dressed in purple and gold), defending a city from the ancient nation of Zeffira - which will later be known as Demacia - from a Darkin named Aatrox. Kayle and Morgana have a tense relationship, as Kayle is strict in her application of justice, while Morgana believes people deserve a second chance. This difference is symbolized when Kayle looks at Morgana before attacking Aatrox with her flame, as Morgana’s purple flames are not well-regarded. Afterward, we see a village in Ionia being attacked by bandits. Yasuo, who had abandoned the path of the sword, decides to fight again to protect the village’s people. The clip implies that Yasuo died defending the village, as, in the final moments, we see the Kindred’s white arrow, symbolizing his death, before the scene transitions back to Tryndamere. Finally, we see Tryndamere symbolically fighting the Kindred while, in reality, he’s battling the soldiers surrounding him. The Wolf chases him while the Lamb attempts to finish him off. However, Tryndamere has red eyes, indicating an ability that makes him immortal for a short period. When this ability is about to run out, the Lamb lowers her bow, and two arrows appear: they’re from Tryndamere’s wife, Ashe, who eliminates the last two soldiers trying to kill her husband. This ends Tryndamere’s rage, the ability that kept him alive, and the Kindred depart. Interestingly, Ashe didn’t witness any of what Tryndamere saw, which is why she looks around, confused. It’s important to note that these events don’t occur in the same time period. There’s roughly a thousand-year gap between the events of Morgana and Kayle and those involving Yasuo, for example.
If you get a chance, you should react to some of the LoL World championship final opening ceremonies. They feature a lot of the artists and songs you see in these cinematics/music videos. I recommend 2019, 2022, 2023 and the most recent 2024. Earlier ones weren't as good and covid made 2020/2021 lower quality but they're decent too.
The rules of this game are straightforward. At the end, there is a god-like figure named Faker who judges the challengers. Even if you manage to defeat him, you must do so at least five times to truly surpass him.
Much better to talk during the videos than save it all for afterwards. This is a reaction after all. Just pause if you're worried about missing stuff to get your thoughts out there. Still Here was performed live at the finals of Worlds 2024, garnering 50 million viewers. You might enjoy reacting to the opening ceremony, where they do several of their songs from that year live. 2024 was the best one they've done since 2019 - ua-cam.com/video/MUVT6lylqnM/v-deo.html. 2014 was the first big stadium year for League of Legends, but eSports has been big in Korea going back into the 2000s with Starcraft. These days League of Legends is the biggest and China dominates the viewership. Warriors 2014 was also used in the 2020 season cinematic, changed into the kind of epic trailer style you said you liked you your Awaken 2019 cinematic reaction. For seasonal cinematics, 2020 and 2022 are the other ones worth watching. Warriors 2014 and KD/A Popstars were both done by Studio Fortiche, who animate the League of Legends show Arcane, available on Netflix. Anyway, really enjoying the reactions.
If you girls see this message in time, I recommend watching the Worlds Finals on November 2nd 2024, live-streamed on UA-cam. The whole thing, including pre-show to maybe feel the hype and build-up :)
"I didn't know eSports was a big thing back in 2014." Oh you sweet summer child. That was the arguable PEAK of eSports. Things have shrunk back quite a bit since then, but in 2014, they were packing 50,000 person stadiums. They had more total viewers than the Superbowl, and if you count the Chinese viewship, more than FIFA world cups. League of Legends was a behemoth of the industry. As for Imagine Dragons, they're all big fans of the game so they were naturally on board to do songs for them. The lead singer said they used to be late for performances because they'd be in the middle of a game back stage. Also adding my nomination for watching Arcane. It's not just a good League of Legends show, or a good animated show - it's a good show period. You don't need to know anything about the game or lore (though there are some easter eggs and familiar characters who appear), so you can jump right in. They actually JUST released a teaser for season 2 today (don't watch it, it'll spoil season 1).
Reminding me of when i was little and esports was still smaller watching like the starcraft tourneys. 2014 really did feel like peak though, it felt like everyone on college campus was talking about the league championships, talking about the prize pool for dota around then, faker becoming a household name to gamers.
If you want to watch a full series, arcane is amazing and season 2 comes in November. Since you mention maybe wanting to watch people play league of legends the world championship is actively going on rn 😊
just some information about the last cinematic (still here). Before i start I just wanna apologize caus im not native english so maybe my english will not be perfect but i try my best ^^ At the last part in the snow, the guy with the big sword is named Tryndamere, and he have a special hability, he can be invinsible for a short time, Kindred the other caracter in this part is literally the representation of death (the Reaper) so Tryndamere was literally fighting the death and didnt die caus of his ability, and at the end when his ability was close to finish so Kindred will kill him, the last caracter, Ash, saved him caus she killed the 2 last soldiers who was really fighting Tryndamere, caus yeah, Kindred is not physicly here, she is just a methaphore, the real enemies was the soldiers. Btw Ash is the wife of Tryndamere ^^
Imagine Dragons are massive LoL fans and they collaborate a lot. They also do the opening for Arcane, and appear as characters in the show For further LoL videos, I'd suggest listening to all the riot created character bands in one go. Characters from the game have skin lines that group them together into musical groups, though they do use real musical artists as the voices for them (like Madison Beer, Baekhyun from Exo-K, Miyeon and Soyeon from (G)I-dle, Becky G, Keke Palmer, and many more), and they all have stunning music videos. The Bands are the girl group K/DA, the boy group Heartsteel, the metal band Pentakill, and the hip hop group True Damage. There's also Seraphine who is an in universe singer, who appears on a K/DA track. And League was huge as an esport long before esports became a more widely known thing. Riot have always poured in a massive amount of resources for their game to become as big as possible, and most games that become esports now are actually trying to emulate Riot's success, to varying degrees.
Based on the comment section it seems like people are sleeping on A New Dawn nowadays. It is one of the older League cinematics so the graphics aren't quite as impressive but it's the one that put Riot on the map as a cinematic creator. I think you both would appreciate it.
pls watch the other cinematics for warriors and the call. also the coolest music is legends never die from against the current, they still play this song live at their concerts.
So for the context, Rise is about a now retired professional leauge player called Ambition. There is a Leauge of Legends tournament called Worlds. Which is a biggest and most important tournament organized by Riot Games. This tournament first organized in 2011, 13 years ago in Europe, Sweden. European team called Fnatic won the tournament and this is the first and last worlds western team ever won. Then in 2013 Faker came in aka The Goat of Leauge. He won this tournament 4 times. (He won the 4th one last year and the first one in 2013 he is crazy) No one is not even close to him. He is the guy at the end of the Rise music video. The final boss with his signature lol charachter ryze. The main guy of the video is player called Ambition. He lost to Faker in worlds final in 2016 which is third worlds trophy of Faker. Than he and his team (Samsung Galaxy) came in the finals again and played against T1 again (Faker's Team) this time they beat them and won trophy took their revenge. This is why in the video he is starting in the cliff of a mountain. He lost in 2016 he fell of from the mountain in 2017 he climbed the top again and the other guys in the video representing the other Pro players and their teams which Ambition and his team beated in 2017.
Also amazing is curse of the sad mummy, starguardian (Porter Robins), starguardian light and Shadows and Not with a Song but absolutly amazing anie origens
Incredibleeee, love watching and watching reactions to cinematics for lots of games, league ones are amazing, Still Here was so well received when it came out but you should check out the rest! Blizzard also do amazing cinematics for each of the WoW expansions and for Overwatch, definitely ones to check out, same level of style and detail that makes you scream make a movie!
Arcane is kinda must watch, that show won tons of awards and probably the best-ever music written for a show. and season 2 is coming Nov. 9 + The Curse of the Sad Mummy is one of the 1. ever LoL songs and made and performed by the show creator. and that is a banger. All riot song are a banger, they make better songs videos and series than games probably at this point.
"I want to like see people play" 2024 world championships are going on right now. Its like watching a sports tournament with commentators during the games and discussion about the games in between. Today is playing my two favourite teams and two favourite mid lane players. It's G2(europe) vs Sk telecom T1(korea) Caps(danish) vs Faker(korean). They are both featured in several of these league videos. In the latest worlds 2024 theme song Linkin park - Heavy Is The Crown Faker is the crown bearer and you can see caps there too. Faker is the first player to have his name in "The hall of legends" for having most worlds victories and being a dominant force in the professional scene for so long.
100% watch the opening for LOL worlds 2024.. they are playing towards the final at this moment (planned 2nd of nov).. they will perform a couple of songs live and it will be a whole other beast for you -AND you can watch the game as well. :) RISE have a really soft spot for me. (The players in the videos are not technically the one/ones that won but they are highly ranked players that compete and have or have had a deep impact.. the one in the end with the book is agreed to be the best individual player in the world (called Faker) and you will see alot of him in videos if you have a look at more of them)
IF you like this tase you should watch KDA song Pop Stars & Villan, The Call 2022 and this years Worlds by Linkon Park Heavy is the Crown and thier TV series Arcan and the new season 2 is about to drop.
iff you know about league off legends lore this sound become realy better in the last scene kindred she represent the dead in lol lore and tryndamere have a ability to become impossible to kill for some seconds and all times he use kindred come try take he life and he fighting for his life all time and ashe the woman come and kill his enemy in the last moment for he dont die is realy good
Also a bit of league lore... In the last scene, Tryndamere (guy), is being attacked by enemies, so Kindred (Aspect of death, lamb and wolf) shows up to represent his death. So The wolf hunts those who refuse to accept their death and the lamb tries to grant those who embrace death a peaceful one. The wolf attacks first because Tryndamere was quite obviously gonna fight back. And later on he uses his in-game Ultimate, Undying Rage, which allows him to become temporarily immortal. Hence the red eyes. And just when he's about to be attacked by the 2 soldiers behind him, his wife, Ashe, shoots 2 arrows from behind Kindred to kill the 2 enemies behind him, thus breaking Kindreds illusion of death. And the way his eyes change from red back to blue represents how Ashe makes him feel calm. And she looks at him with the same type of soft, but concerned look that says "Are you okay". (Added note: their marriage was an arranged political marriage, but they later fell in love.)
League is a whole different universe with a lot of lore going on, every champion has a story and aside from that there is the pro game side where players around the world compete. If you follow League then you get every entertainment you need for: music, sport, movie, cinematics, etc.
Last time you mentioned being a fantasy fan. Therefore I wanted to ask you if you have seen the newist show "The Legend of Vox Machina" which is entirely D&D and fantasy based or the show "Castlevania"? Another great fantasy LotR type show is "Frieren: Beyond journey's end" which is about an elf.Also the "Arcane" show is about the "LoL" history/lore and also featuring "Imagine Dragons".
Please react to the League of Legends video: "Worlds 2023 Finals Opening Ceremony Presented by Mastercard ft. NewJeans, HEARTSTEEL, and More!" It's a mix of musics in live (some of themyou've heard), but with an amazing performance.
Esports has been big for quite a while, at least 10-15 years. LoL is one of if not the largest esport in the world--the very best players can get paid millions of dollars and the world championship has millions of viewers. Sadly the game doesn't visually look much like the videos though haha, they're mostly promotional material. The lore and story behind everything is amazing though--they released a Netflix series a couple years ago called Arcane that you guys might like. The characters are insanely well written and the visuals are super unique and great--the only thing to be potentially wary of is that it can be pretty dark at times if that's not your thing. It's far from a lighthearted video-gamey show. Love the reactions! I think you guys would like "More" by KDA, "The Call" cinematic 2022, and "Warriors" cinematic 2020 (it's different than the one you watched in this video). Also "Breathe" from Legends of Runeterra (LoL's card game) is amazing too!
my favs are not the cinematic or music stuff but the openings before COVID-19 imagine what openings we would have if COVID didn't hit... I didn't enjoy after covid opening tbh it was felt like propaganda shit to me
The voice-over for the 3rd video, "Still Here" is Kindred which is death. It is one entity. Separate, but never parted, Kindred represents the twin essences of death. Lamb's bow offers a swift release from the mortal realm for those who accept their fate. Wolf hunts down those who run from their end, delivering violent finality within his crushing jaws.
Hey girlllls! So glad to join you on this journey through my favourite game's experience (to answer ur questions, game was released in 2009, personally I play it for 12 years now). The graphics of the trailers and music videos are not representative of the actual game, Riot takes the characters from LoL and showcases parts of the lore/story behind characters in the LoL universe - which can get very complex, Necrit has videos explaining stuff, like for example the lore behind Still Here. Considering LoL is not a story game, but a 5v5 arena-like match with aerial view on the characters, the graphics of actual gameplay are very different to what you see in these videos. You should definitely watch what people are recommending, for now The Call, Warriors (from 2020, new video and remixed version), Heartsteel - Paranoia, True damage - Giants. Another fun thing to react to once you go further down the LoL rabbit hole are the World Championship Ceremonies - they get the artists to perform the "anthem" of the World Championship live and usually include another song from Riot's production as well (such as KDA, Heartsteel or Awaken). Thank you and have fun!
Watch Arcane, than youll be naturally watching Faker the best player in the world! im not even LOL player, but the person and the player faker is awesome!
You guys are so gorgeous and fun, i'm glad you're enjoying the league content. I love the game, but it's a tough game to get into when you have never experienced any moba
im at warriors rn in the video but if you want to have ALL the lore of the "Still Here" cinematic then there is the LoL Lore Guy called "Necrit" who can help you. He has a video where he explains in detail all the things happening in the cinematic.
FYI: There is an offical league banger remix for RISE : RISE Remix (ft. BOBBY (바비) of iKON) :) Also Imagine Dragons did the official song "ENEMY" for Arcane And you can enjoy Arcane, the lore and music without ever watching or playing a game :)
I'd absolutely recommend watching Arcane, you don't have to have played League of Legends to watch it. It's a great TV series in and of itself. Season 2 is coming in November so better get to it!
Ong id watch the videos if they do the reactions
Yeah it's just too good to not watch it
i would sooooo watch their reaction
Rise's singer and compositor is the main compositor in Arcane. Just one more reason to watch it.
Dew it
More songs i think you would enjoy are :
The call
legends never die
warriors (2020)
K/DA - MORE
True damage - Giants
Phoenix
Burn it all down
HEARTSTEEL - Paranoia
For Context: Warriors (2020) - they made an epic cinematic out of the actual 2014 Warriors Song and revamped it. Thats why its called the same
missing villain there, underated and one of my fav
pentakill mortal reminder
Take Over
KDA!!
So Riot didn't make a MOVIE buuuuut they did make an absolutely AMAZING show called Arcane I highly recommend y'all react to it or just watch it also it's a great time to watch it cause season 2 is coming out this November and y'all won't have to wait the 2 years we had to bear with
*3 years
The two spirits you saw are fighting the guy with the sword in the snowy scene are known as Kindred collectively, individually known as Wolf and Lamb. They are League of Legends personification of death, so the man was literally fighting death itself, in order to survive. And the other archer that came after when the smoke/mist vanished is his wife.
Other notable characters that it looked like you were interested in are the two angel looking girls who are the sisters Morgana and Kayle, fighting the darkin known as Aatrox.
Local man literally too angry to die
Wait
Isn't Kayle Moragana's mother?
@@galahadlance nope they are sisters in the lore, twins in fact. Their mom is/was the aspect of Justice, which is why they have celestial powers.
13:21 You should watch Arcane the show, its based in the world of League of Legends. Season 2 is coming out soon.
very soon, less than a month, finally!
Welcome to the rabbit hole that is League. Here's a comprehensive list of some of the best cinematics grouped by type and ordered by year so you can see the progression in animation. If you do wind up watching Arcane, I'd suggest skipping the Arcane related because they can give some minor spoilers. Also, the season cinematics tend to be more lore related whereas the Worlds cinematics focus on the players of the esport.

this right here, is most of if not everything. this person got it right. if elin and vilda want to fall down the rabbit hole of league content this list is the one :D
Casually dropping the Library of Alexandria of League of Legends, respect
Holy moly, that's an info dump and a half 😂 Also, how come UA-cam allowed you to put links in your comment? When I try to do it my comment always gets shadowbanned 😭
@@AppleBaron No idea. If I had to guess it's either a channel setting preventing posting or some type of algorithm that allows it through after some requirement gets ticked because I've posted this list many, many times. It probably just goes, oh, this again, move along.
the only thing I'd as is necrit lore for the MMO video
That arrow that flashed in front of the screen right before they went from the fire village to the snow area is from the same bow that the spirit called Kindred was using, who is supposed to be like a Grim Reaper type character in League Of Legends, who hunts people whose time it is to die.
The guy with the sword, Tryndamere, has an ultimate skill that makes him immune to death in-game. So people always theorized that he was always in a constant battle with Kindred whenever he used his ultimate, because Kindred is always there when it is someone's "time to die" and this cinematic is to give the people who enjoy the story a little more to chew on.
They also throw in the sound of Ashe's arrow, who is an entirely different character(the girl with the bow that saved Tryndamere is his wife and they use her ingame ability sound)
Playing League of Legends, watching every cinematic, knowing the lore of most champions gives all these music videos so much more depth. First time listening and seeing the videos is always like "OMG it's champion X, Y and Z and their abilities" and getting goosebumps and everything. And even after listening to it many times, these songs still make you hyped, emotional, energetic and more. It's crazy😮
I started playing League in 2011 and it was a big part of my childhood. I haven't seen a lot of Swedes do this type of content on UA-cam so it was fun stumbling upon this channel.
anyone noticed how ash calmed tryndameres fury
She is his wife
@@Kartendreher Usually that causes more fury;)
@@onigiri9964boomercore
You guys should react to Warriors 2020 cinematic! It's absolutely amazing
I started playing in 2011 :D And Rise was such a banger in 2018.
I started playing League back in 2013.. My fav is Warriors, because it is so nostalgic for me. I always dreamed of being the profesionall player, so the video hyped me a lot 🔥!
Hi, girls, League videos has some categories:
- Cinematics, which are usually released between seasons, they focus on the lore/story of the game's characters and the world they live in (like Awaken and Still Here), the League of Legends universe has a lot of interesting stories.
- League of Legends World Championship(Worlds) promotional videos, which are usually cool and super motivational songs (great for the gym, really) and the videos try to honor the professional players and their teams, trying to bring together reality and the game world.
- And skin lines (which are clothes that the characters can wear in the game), Riot creates a whole concept and stories for them, as if it were a parallel universe, the same characters from the game but with others stories, in the skin videos we have the musical groups, like KDA, which you've already watched, they are a K-pop group(they have others musics, please watch them too), but there are also other music groups like Pentakill, True Damage and Heartsteel. In addition, there are several skin lines that Riot makes videos for, like Star Guardians skins (which are like Sailor Moon)
I hope this helps understanding ❤
Also, Worlds Opening Ceremonies! Those are always a good watch.
THERE IS A SERIES, "Arcane" on netflix, only 9 episodes, but probably the best animated series or movie EVER, and even between the non animated franchises it's TOO good. Second season on 9th November.
Still here is definitely my favorite because it's lore accurate. To answer some of your questions, I remember league of legends becoming popular in 2010-2011 and esports really started getting mainstream attention around that time as well in like 2012-2013.
Noo, you shouldn't reduce the talking y'all do. it's the fun part
Enjoying revisiting this journey with you guys. Keep it up. 47 years old. still playing. still moved by basically everything Riot does :D
Can you imagine someone there to explain all the lore and references behind each video? Highly recommend that you get someone who understands the game or the lore behind it to collaborate with you. It would make each video you watch that much more meaningful. And like most said, the anime is on Netflix and it's amazing!
If you like the Warriors song, definitely check out the 2020 cinematic with this song! One of my favorites LOL cinematics
I'd say they should hold that one off until after we make them watch Arcane.
At some point you should watch the "Hall of Legends: Faker" video since he is a big part of many of these music videos, he's a very big figure in the community and the video is pretty good at showcasing how much these players have to sacrifice to reach these heights(which is a big theme in almost all of the Worlds songs).
If you guys do want to watch people play, the 2024 world championships is happening now!! The casters do a really good job of explaining everything too. You can also watch Hall of Legends: Faker to get a sense of who T1 and Faker is ... they're truly legendary in League of Legends.
I’d like to explain a bit about the clips, as you may not know much about League of Legends.
In the first clip, Rise, we see a professional player representing game characters as he faces off against various other pro players. With each victory, he collects the weapon of his defeated opponent and uses it in future battles. At the end, it’s shown that he and several other players are on a journey to reach the championship trophy.
The second clip, Warriors, is a tribute both to the professional players, who dedicate themselves to reaching the top, and to casual players, who helped make the game popular and enabled the competitive scene to exist. This is why the song includes the line: “We are the warriors that built this town, from dust.”
In the final clip, Still Here, there’s a lot of game lore involved. First, we see Tryndamere lying on the ground, surrounded by soldiers, and in the background, he sees the shadow of the Kindred, specifically the lamb, who represents death in the League of Legends universe. When someone is about to die, they see the Kindred: if the death is peaceful, it’s an arrow from the Lamb; otherwise, they’re hunted by the Wolf.
Following this, we see the sisters Kayle (on the left, dressed in blue and silver) and Morgana (on the right, dressed in purple and gold), defending a city from the ancient nation of Zeffira - which will later be known as Demacia - from a Darkin named Aatrox. Kayle and Morgana have a tense relationship, as Kayle is strict in her application of justice, while Morgana believes people deserve a second chance. This difference is symbolized when Kayle looks at Morgana before attacking Aatrox with her flame, as Morgana’s purple flames are not well-regarded.
Afterward, we see a village in Ionia being attacked by bandits. Yasuo, who had abandoned the path of the sword, decides to fight again to protect the village’s people. The clip implies that Yasuo died defending the village, as, in the final moments, we see the Kindred’s white arrow, symbolizing his death, before the scene transitions back to Tryndamere.
Finally, we see Tryndamere symbolically fighting the Kindred while, in reality, he’s battling the soldiers surrounding him. The Wolf chases him while the Lamb attempts to finish him off. However, Tryndamere has red eyes, indicating an ability that makes him immortal for a short period. When this ability is about to run out, the Lamb lowers her bow, and two arrows appear: they’re from Tryndamere’s wife, Ashe, who eliminates the last two soldiers trying to kill her husband. This ends Tryndamere’s rage, the ability that kept him alive, and the Kindred depart. Interestingly, Ashe didn’t witness any of what Tryndamere saw, which is why she looks around, confused.
It’s important to note that these events don’t occur in the same time period. There’s roughly a thousand-year gap between the events of Morgana and Kayle and those involving Yasuo, for example.
If you get a chance, you should react to some of the LoL World championship final opening ceremonies. They feature a lot of the artists and songs you see in these cinematics/music videos. I recommend 2019, 2022, 2023 and the most recent 2024. Earlier ones weren't as good and covid made 2020/2021 lower quality but they're decent too.
The rules of this game are straightforward. At the end, there is a god-like figure named Faker who judges the challengers. Even if you manage to defeat him, you must do so at least five times to truly surpass him.
This video put a big ass smile on my face seeing ur reactions and experiencing the LOL videos again :3
the best and beautiful and cute reaction ever 👍
love how you two carry ur self this time around... great React Video .. good job , keep it up
I would recommend watching Necrit, he pretty much explains every video of the league of legends lore
Much better to talk during the videos than save it all for afterwards. This is a reaction after all. Just pause if you're worried about missing stuff to get your thoughts out there.
Still Here was performed live at the finals of Worlds 2024, garnering 50 million viewers. You might enjoy reacting to the opening ceremony, where they do several of their songs from that year live. 2024 was the best one they've done since 2019 - ua-cam.com/video/MUVT6lylqnM/v-deo.html. 2014 was the first big stadium year for League of Legends, but eSports has been big in Korea going back into the 2000s with Starcraft. These days League of Legends is the biggest and China dominates the viewership.
Warriors 2014 was also used in the 2020 season cinematic, changed into the kind of epic trailer style you said you liked you your Awaken 2019 cinematic reaction. For seasonal cinematics, 2020 and 2022 are the other ones worth watching.
Warriors 2014 and KD/A Popstars were both done by Studio Fortiche, who animate the League of Legends show Arcane, available on Netflix.
Anyway, really enjoying the reactions.
"Can you make a movie out of it?"
They made a TV show, and it's very good!
Legends Never Die next please! That's like the OG League anthem 😄
If you girls see this message in time, I recommend watching the Worlds Finals on November 2nd 2024, live-streamed on UA-cam. The whole thing, including pre-show to maybe feel the hype and build-up :)
"I didn't know eSports was a big thing back in 2014."
Oh you sweet summer child. That was the arguable PEAK of eSports. Things have shrunk back quite a bit since then, but in 2014, they were packing 50,000 person stadiums. They had more total viewers than the Superbowl, and if you count the Chinese viewship, more than FIFA world cups. League of Legends was a behemoth of the industry.
As for Imagine Dragons, they're all big fans of the game so they were naturally on board to do songs for them. The lead singer said they used to be late for performances because they'd be in the middle of a game back stage.
Also adding my nomination for watching Arcane. It's not just a good League of Legends show, or a good animated show - it's a good show period. You don't need to know anything about the game or lore (though there are some easter eggs and familiar characters who appear), so you can jump right in. They actually JUST released a teaser for season 2 today (don't watch it, it'll spoil season 1).
Reminding me of when i was little and esports was still smaller watching like the starcraft tourneys. 2014 really did feel like peak though, it felt like everyone on college campus was talking about the league championships, talking about the prize pool for dota around then, faker becoming a household name to gamers.
Ok after seeing your reactions im sure u gonna cry on Arcane. SO good this series. Still waiting for a seazon 2
I love how they can't fathom that these were all made for a video game 😆
If you want to watch a full series, arcane is amazing and season 2 comes in November. Since you mention maybe wanting to watch people play league of legends the world championship is actively going on rn 😊
just some information about the last cinematic (still here). Before i start I just wanna apologize caus im not native english so maybe my english will not be perfect but i try my best ^^ At the last part in the snow, the guy with the big sword is named Tryndamere, and he have a special hability, he can be invinsible for a short time, Kindred the other caracter in this part is literally the representation of death (the Reaper) so Tryndamere was literally fighting the death and didnt die caus of his ability, and at the end when his ability was close to finish so Kindred will kill him, the last caracter, Ash, saved him caus she killed the 2 last soldiers who was really fighting Tryndamere, caus yeah, Kindred is not physicly here, she is just a methaphore, the real enemies was the soldiers. Btw Ash is the wife of Tryndamere ^^
2021 saw a massive rise in interest in esports because of covid
The wolf and the lamb are basically death it self
You guys should watch necrits video explaining the still here cinematic.
I want to see moreeeeee.
Imagine Dragons are massive LoL fans and they collaborate a lot. They also do the opening for Arcane, and appear as characters in the show
For further LoL videos, I'd suggest listening to all the riot created character bands in one go. Characters from the game have skin lines that group them together into musical groups, though they do use real musical artists as the voices for them (like Madison Beer, Baekhyun from Exo-K, Miyeon and Soyeon from (G)I-dle, Becky G, Keke Palmer, and many more), and they all have stunning music videos. The Bands are the girl group K/DA, the boy group Heartsteel, the metal band Pentakill, and the hip hop group True Damage. There's also Seraphine who is an in universe singer, who appears on a K/DA track.
And League was huge as an esport long before esports became a more widely known thing. Riot have always poured in a massive amount of resources for their game to become as big as possible, and most games that become esports now are actually trying to emulate Riot's success, to varying degrees.
Fun fact, last video cinematic still here, husband tryndamare and ashe wife ❤
Based on the comment section it seems like people are sleeping on A New Dawn nowadays. It is one of the older League cinematics so the graphics aren't quite as impressive but it's the one that put Riot on the map as a cinematic creator. I think you both would appreciate it.
We have already arcane and its banger, and dont worry, there will be movies someday
pls watch the other cinematics for warriors and the call. also the coolest music is legends never die from against the current, they still play this song live at their concerts.
Love your reactions. But you know there's another league video for warriors? A later version.
I wanna follow you exploring more of the lol rabbit hole.
So for the context,
Rise is about a now retired professional leauge player called Ambition.
There is a Leauge of Legends tournament called Worlds. Which is a biggest and most important tournament organized by Riot Games. This tournament first organized in 2011, 13 years ago in Europe, Sweden. European team called Fnatic won the tournament and this is the first and last worlds western team ever won. Then in 2013 Faker came in aka The Goat of Leauge. He won this tournament 4 times. (He won the 4th one last year and the first one in 2013 he is crazy) No one is not even close to him. He is the guy at the end of the Rise music video. The final boss with his signature lol charachter ryze. The main guy of the video is player called Ambition. He lost to Faker in worlds final in 2016 which is third worlds trophy of Faker. Than he and his team (Samsung Galaxy) came in the finals again and played against T1 again (Faker's Team) this time they beat them and won trophy took their revenge. This is why in the video he is starting in the cliff of a mountain. He lost in 2016 he fell of from the mountain in 2017 he climbed the top again and the other guys in the video representing the other Pro players and their teams which Ambition and his team beated in 2017.
so basicly esport wasnt that a big thing back in 2014. BUT, imagine dragons are all league of legends addicted
Also amazing is curse of the sad mummy, starguardian (Porter Robins), starguardian light and Shadows and Not with a Song but absolutly amazing anie origens
Incredibleeee, love watching and watching reactions to cinematics for lots of games, league ones are amazing, Still Here was so well received when it came out but you should check out the rest! Blizzard also do amazing cinematics for each of the WoW expansions and for Overwatch, definitely ones to check out, same level of style and detail that makes you scream make a movie!
Requist: reaction on WOW cinematics
What you need to watch are the worlds opening ceremonies
Arcane is kinda must watch, that show won tons of awards and probably the best-ever music written for a show. and season 2 is coming Nov. 9 + The Curse of the Sad Mummy is one of the 1. ever LoL songs and made and performed by the show creator. and that is a banger. All riot song are a banger, they make better songs videos and series than games probably at this point.
U need to watch the oppening ceremony from worlds this year
Nice reaction, next pleas porter robinson - everything goes on leag of lagend👍🙏
Yeah you guys reached the point where you HAVE to watch Arcane (and season 2 is out in less than 1 week) and react to all of it
U have too see the ignite song too
Kinda surprise tnh. I dont get to see a lot of UA-cam channel with someone who actually know Imagine dragon
I recommend Reacting to league of legends worlds opening ceremony 2024 + warriors cinematic
girls , try these : Enemy ; Legends never die and The call ... the bests LoL song by far. cheers
The guy that made "Rise" also did a lot of the music in Arcane (the animated series) and they got other well known artists to sing them.
You guys should watch more of league !!! Anything related to riot games universe is great
You guys should get vilda's brother whos play the game behind the camera to correct their thoughts without spoile anything
this will be funny video
"Sounds like imagine dragons" who wants to tell them that ENEMY was made for League's netflix show ARCANE? 😂
Reaccionen a Leyends never day, mi musica favorita de league of legends
thank you
"I want to like see people play" 2024 world championships are going on right now. Its like watching a sports tournament with commentators during the games and discussion about the games in between. Today is playing my two favourite teams and two favourite mid lane players. It's G2(europe) vs Sk telecom T1(korea) Caps(danish) vs Faker(korean). They are both featured in several of these league videos. In the latest worlds 2024 theme song Linkin park - Heavy Is The Crown Faker is the crown bearer and you can see caps there too. Faker is the first player to have his name in "The hall of legends" for having most worlds victories and being a dominant force in the professional scene for so long.
100% watch the opening for LOL worlds 2024.. they are playing towards the final at this moment (planned 2nd of nov).. they will perform a couple of songs live and it will be a whole other beast for you -AND you can watch the game as well. :)
RISE have a really soft spot for me.
(The players in the videos are not technically the one/ones that won but they are highly ranked players that compete and have or have had a deep impact.. the one in the end with the book is agreed to be the best individual player in the world (called Faker) and you will see alot of him in videos if you have a look at more of them)
IF you like this tase you should watch KDA song Pop Stars & Villan, The Call 2022 and this years Worlds by Linkon Park Heavy is the Crown and thier TV series Arcan and the new season 2 is about to drop.
The girl with the bow that came to save the warrior at the end. Is name Ash and she worries wife. 😊
You should definetly watch the Warriors 2020 Cinematic if you liked the 2014 Imagine Dragons Warriors song. Trust :D
iff you know about league off legends lore this sound become realy better
in the last scene kindred she represent the dead in lol lore and tryndamere have a ability to become impossible to kill for some seconds and all times he use kindred come try take he life and he fighting for his life all time and ashe the woman come and kill his enemy in the last moment for he dont die is realy good
arcane is coming
You should react to KDA More.
Also a bit of league lore... In the last scene, Tryndamere (guy), is being attacked by enemies, so Kindred (Aspect of death, lamb and wolf) shows up to represent his death. So The wolf hunts those who refuse to accept their death and the lamb tries to grant those who embrace death a peaceful one. The wolf attacks first because Tryndamere was quite obviously gonna fight back. And later on he uses his in-game Ultimate, Undying Rage, which allows him to become temporarily immortal. Hence the red eyes. And just when he's about to be attacked by the 2 soldiers behind him, his wife, Ashe, shoots 2 arrows from behind Kindred to kill the 2 enemies behind him, thus breaking Kindreds illusion of death. And the way his eyes change from red back to blue represents how Ashe makes him feel calm. And she looks at him with the same type of soft, but concerned look that says "Are you okay". (Added note: their marriage was an arranged political marriage, but they later fell in love.)
You gonna be so fucking disappointed by the actual game 😂
You need to watch Arcane before the second season, who is gonna come out on November
gj
Just watch Arcane already! Season 2 is coming next month, you gotta catch up 😂 it's one of the best things I've ever seen
13:25 i mean you have to watch arcane. Its actual better to not know the lore when watching the show imo.
The game doesn't really play anything like the cinematics. There's usually nods to the gameplay, but it's very different overall.
LEAGUE OF LEGENDS best song will forever be Legends Never Die
League is a whole different universe with a lot of lore going on, every champion has a story and aside from that there is the pro game side where players around the world compete. If you follow League then you get every entertainment you need for: music, sport, movie, cinematics, etc.
Last time you mentioned being a fantasy fan. Therefore I wanted to ask you if you have seen the newist show "The Legend of Vox Machina" which is entirely D&D and fantasy based or the show "Castlevania"?
Another great fantasy LotR type show is "Frieren: Beyond journey's end" which is about an elf.Also the "Arcane" show is about the "LoL" history/lore and also featuring "Imagine Dragons".
Please react to the League of Legends video: "Worlds 2023 Finals Opening Ceremony Presented by Mastercard ft. NewJeans, HEARTSTEEL, and More!" It's a mix of musics in live (some of themyou've heard), but with an amazing performance.
Love your reactions hahaha
Esports has been big for quite a while, at least 10-15 years. LoL is one of if not the largest esport in the world--the very best players can get paid millions of dollars and the world championship has millions of viewers.
Sadly the game doesn't visually look much like the videos though haha, they're mostly promotional material. The lore and story behind everything is amazing though--they released a Netflix series a couple years ago called Arcane that you guys might like. The characters are insanely well written and the visuals are super unique and great--the only thing to be potentially wary of is that it can be pretty dark at times if that's not your thing. It's far from a lighthearted video-gamey show.
Love the reactions! I think you guys would like "More" by KDA, "The Call" cinematic 2022, and "Warriors" cinematic 2020 (it's different than the one you watched in this video). Also "Breathe" from Legends of Runeterra (LoL's card game) is amazing too!
my favs are not the cinematic or music stuff but the openings before COVID-19 imagine what openings we would have if COVID didn't hit... I didn't enjoy after covid opening tbh it was felt like propaganda shit to me
The voice-over for the 3rd video, "Still Here" is Kindred which is death. It is one entity.
Separate, but never parted, Kindred represents the twin essences of death. Lamb's bow offers a swift release from the mortal realm for those who accept their fate. Wolf hunts down those who run from their end, delivering violent finality within his crushing jaws.
started season 3 playing still to this day and i would have to go with Rise, Still Here, then Warriors. Legends Never die is great also
Hey girlllls!
So glad to join you on this journey through my favourite game's experience (to answer ur questions, game was released in 2009, personally I play it for 12 years now).
The graphics of the trailers and music videos are not representative of the actual game, Riot takes the characters from LoL and showcases parts of the lore/story behind characters in the LoL universe - which can get very complex, Necrit has videos explaining stuff, like for example the lore behind Still Here.
Considering LoL is not a story game, but a 5v5 arena-like match with aerial view on the characters, the graphics of actual gameplay are very different to what you see in these videos.
You should definitely watch what people are recommending, for now The Call, Warriors (from 2020, new video and remixed version), Heartsteel - Paranoia, True damage - Giants. Another fun thing to react to once you go further down the LoL rabbit hole are the World Championship Ceremonies - they get the artists to perform the "anthem" of the World Championship live and usually include another song from Riot's production as well (such as KDA, Heartsteel or Awaken).
Thank you and have fun!
Watch Arcane, than youll be naturally watching Faker the best player in the world! im not even LOL player, but the person and the player faker is awesome!
You guys are so gorgeous and fun, i'm glad you're enjoying the league content. I love the game, but it's a tough game to get into when you have never experienced any moba
Please react to a video of the pro League of Legends! Something like 2022 world's finals highlights or a compilation of the history. :)
WATCH IT ALL, WATCH IT ALL!!
Yesheyshyehsyeysyeysyeysyeysyeysyeysyesyesyesyesyyesysyehseyys
im at warriors rn in the video but if you want to have ALL the lore of the "Still Here" cinematic then there is the LoL Lore Guy called "Necrit" who can help you. He has a video where he explains in detail all the things happening in the cinematic.
FYI: There is an offical league banger remix for RISE : RISE Remix (ft. BOBBY (바비) of iKON) :)
Also Imagine Dragons did the official song "ENEMY" for Arcane
And you can enjoy Arcane, the lore and music without ever watching or playing a game :)
