@Tesla-Effect We also have creatures that can never survive outside their home areas such as Penguins.

As for instance there are multiple species of bear but you can't just take any old bear and plot them in the Antarctic and expect them survive. They will freeze to death because they haven't adapted to the cold like Polar Bears have just as Polar Bears would suffer in places of extreme heat.
According to u/AceOBlade on reddit, those cristallised things are actually the consequences of Xerath attacks on Taliyah during The Climb cinematic. When sands gets in contact with lighting it cristallises so it makes sense that Xerath could have done that accidently when he tried to shoot Taliyah

The Crystal mushrooms have a good explanation from someone on reddit: When lightning strikes sand, it creates weird crystal structures - these could be from xerath ult misses in the Taliyah cinematic!
Here a cool detail for you @Necrit! The guy who snagged the relic, although he uses a hover board, he's actually Kiteboarding! It's possible to do it in snow so I imagine people can do it in the desert, but still cool to see it used like this. He's a bit brave going through those bones there, if your lines get tangled in that you're.. Boned!
These "crystallized mushrooms" you talk about at 4:14 might actually be a link to the "the climb" cinematic from 3 years ago that featured Taliyah surfing through the desert and then getting attacked by Xeraths lightning! When sand gets hit by lightning it crystallizes into fulgurite, which might be what those "crystallized mushrooms" actually are.
4:06 Idk about how this place have a lot of ice geysers, but from google searching I do believe that making ice in desert is a possible thing in physics. I love how Riot did their research.
I saw a theory that said these are the remnants of the Taliyah-Xerath battlefield on the "The Path" cinematic. Xerath's power seem to be themed around lightning or at least close to, and when sand meets extreme heat it crystalizes/turns into glass
a dude on reddit said the crystalized mushrooms are probably a mineral(?) that forms when sand gets struck by lightning, like we see in the awaken(?) cinematic where talyiah is getting shot by xeraths ult
I dunno if anybody else has pointed this out, but the whole Nasus scene looks as if it's a call back to the unreleased Nasus Splash art where he's blue and in turn the current splash art of Nasus.
4:23 Regarding the crystals Someone on Reddit said this so this is not my theory but these could be giant fulgurite crystals that are made when lightning strikes the ground, sand included. It would make sense Renekton is here as this is likely the stage of his previous battle with Xerath.
Two things I have to say. 1) I never knew Azir wasn't wearing pants in his original art. I also never noticed that his feathers were blue. So under that armor he's essentially a tall version of valor the eagle standing on two legs. 2) I hope that this new wave of Shurima lore advances the story of Taliya.
I always get blown away how huge the world of runterra is. Just think about it... so many cities and they all have pictures for them and they look unique.
Also, Don't forget, One of the champion teasers from january was about The sentinels of light, which appear to be in a sort of temple with a lot of sand. Maybe it will be connected to this all?
You haven’t done a video on Yorick in quite a while! I feel like covering his lore especially now with the new season and Ruined King lore would be pretty cool for us Yorick mains.
Its quite clear as to what Xerath wanted to do with the relic, if he has it and is already extremely powerful he has a chance of winning over the people while Azir doesn't.
8:17 to quote the first digimon movie ( at least here in the USA) "... He has pants now...?" Look up Terriamon digivoling into Gargomon in the movie for context
God I can only imagine. What if the League MMO had a mission like this. Imagine clearing dungeons for days on end to get it to drop and then it leads to a sick cinematic and like +100% affinity to Shurima.
the way I see it is that Nasus had a trap that would activate if there was an intruder, and when the messenger fell through it activated. Nasus was supposed to deliver the relic to Azir, but he gets interrupted by Renekton and then drops the relic. It seems to me as the messenger willingly handed the relic over to Nasus.
Istg the poro king definitely exists more than as an ally/enemy in a gamemode and is secretly plotting to take over runeterra with an army of these deceptively cute, "harmless", and probably immortal creatures.
I like that Rene was smashing Nasus, because despite their power in the rift, in lore, Renekton was always stronger fighter. Also, that ´new character´ that hands windweaver his helmet is actually already revealed as card named Voice of the Risen I believe.
I really want the darkin to return to shurima and encounter azir at some point. Especially now that shurima is rebuilding itself. It would be so interesting
