Hey man, you gotta do what you gotta do, copyright (UA-cam especially) have been problematic and wonky for a while. It's certainly not creator friendly, and people should know that at this point. Thans for your enthusiastic reaction. I'm requesting the video "Hounds of Iron" It's another champion cinematic about the Darkin Naafiri. It's got some very cool visuals referencing a war between shurimans and the void, and just has a really cool vibe.
The amount of skins Evelyn sold with KDA after "More" is crazy! Don't forget that in the Villain video is not just Madison Beer singing but also Kim Petras they both have amazing voices and they are very similar, so people sometimes think is just one person singing
@@thisbabyslays Oh, i didn't know that i used to listen to Kim years ago, but because don't live in the USA and my music tastes have changed a lot i'm not that aware of the scandals that take place on the industry there anymore...but, it just doesn't take away the fact that they are both great singers. I was just talking about their voices and music not her work ethics.
Considering eve is basically a shadow demon/succubus, and her primary in-game mechanic is stealth and never really knowing exactly where she is until she's killing you, the mv(villain)is absolutely perfect for her character and overall theme.
@@makichu4357 No it is not her killing they have a mind of their own so she does not control them. The ribbons do the killing or they kill the host. So learn more about them before spreading false information like that.
Baddest is such a banger! That song deserved a concept video too! Much more than the Ahri's video. Drum go dum is also a good song. Those two also need to be on the reaction list.
K/DA introduced me to (G)I-dle, which was the first time I ever got into kpop! If you're interested you should check them out. Riot found them even before their debut. Riot also likes to use Soyeon (the leader and main rapper of (G)I-dle) for Akali every chance they get lol! Also to note, they have their own lore in this skinline. They are in a musicverse alternate reality which is a universe shared with other music-focused skinlines like Heartsteel, Pentakill, etc. The live performance for this and GIANTS is really good too! Hope you check them out as well :D
21:29 So propably most important thing in making skin look alive in 3d animation is simulating a thing called subsurface scattering. It is the way the light penetrates the skin to some extent (try covering a flashlight with your finger, it will glow red because the light goes through the skin). Subsurface scattering removes the plastic look you would get otherwise.
If you read Evelynn's lore, you will understand why they don't show her face in VILLAIN'S song. There are videos about champions lore on youtube, you will enjoy reacting too.
I swear to God, this was the horniest K/DA reaction I've seen. Did not expect that lmao but I'm kinda here for it. Their thighs do be crazy. Relatedly, I think topping people is kinda what Evelyn does. Not surprised she's on top.
a lot of people are mentioning G-Idle but I wanna mention the members of Twice too; in "I'll Show You" four members of Twice lent their vocals for the champions: Nayeon, Jihyo, Sana, and Chaeyoung
Bumping this, there is two more songs that were missed! But the original live show should be watched too! Some people liked the second live show, but I didn't like that one as much, but the whole album needs to be listened to!
@@HPDunbar they didn't miss them, they said those were left out due to being considered lyrics videos and therefore less interesting, but would still check the songs off camera
In villiain video we see evelynn in shadows because in game she is invisible to the enemies until she attacks them, so is cool how the mv has that creepy vibes lol, great video can't wait to see more reactions ❤
For Villain, the reason why they kept Evelynn in the shadows is because she is a demon that works in the shadows (like batman!). She lurks in the dark alleys near bars and other such areas and lures in victims with ideas. But she isn't a "succubus" in the more traditional sense w the 'eating the soul with love' but instead is an actual torture demon. She is the concept of BDSM come to life in order to take yours. She is the demon of agony, you will get no pleasure from her. The other demons are Fiddlesticks (you already met), Tahm Kench the demon of Addiction (gluttony and greed included), Nocturne the demon of nightmares, and Shaco. We have exactly 0 lore on Shaco, don't ask about him. In fact, we have -1 lore on Shaco. We don't even know what he is the demon of.
Although we have no lore, I have to say the idea behind Shaco originally, was 'Chaos'. So he might be the demon of Shaco, of course, that's just a guess. (His name is literally Chaos rearranged aka an Anagram)
i guess everyone here agree's that Vilain makes Eve even sexier if you know she's a succubus and, yknow, Evelynn its just Evelynn, everybody meelts by her.
The debut of K/DA was an augmented reality performance at LoL Worlds in 2018. Where they had the animated members on stage with the singers who voiced them... Also, on side note, YG just announced a 2NE1 comeback and world tour for their 15th anniversary.
POP/STARS is basically what got me into Kpop, especially Soyeon's rap, it blew my mind ! You should react to the opening ceremonies, the 2019 one is the craziest to watch but the one with POP/STARS is kinda good too !
If you would like to dive back in K-pop I would suggest checking out Dreamcatcher they are more rock based or (G)I-dle two of their members were singers for K/DA, Soyeon (Akali) and Miyeon (Ahri)
KDA all out Evelynn was the first skin i got for her as a skin shard and it just went from there lol. she's still one of my top mained junglers and i love her kda all out skin bc of the instrumental that plays when shes in stealth. it makes the other skins kinda boring when youre in stealth and theres no music lol.
I love in pop stars where akali is rapping evelynn is in the back and in the light theres claw marks everywhere from her claws and in the dark she is in her stealth shade mode with no markings
Kai'sa already has her solo, And Serephine was never a member from the beginning she was just a guest, Collab for "More" Giving her solo would make no sense
20:53 Kinda nailed it. She's an ancient demon who found out that sex kills. Well, when she does it. As an Evelynn main since 2017, I endorse this video.
In the group, Ahri is the cute one, Akali is the "girl crush" vibes rapper, Kai'Sa is the sexy one, but Evelyn is the sexier one and the main character (jk but she does give that vibes). Players even believe Riot Games poured all their budget on Evelynn for their K/DA promotions.
2NE1 mentioned, insta sub! 💖 2NE1 got me into K-Pop like 15 years ago, never heard anything like it. My faves from that era were 4Minute, 2NE1 and After School. Good ole times...
I really adore Kai'sa but honestly, I think that's mostly because Kai'sa is like, the perfect underdog in League of Legends in almost all contexts lol. As you know, the game as hover 160+ playable characters. Kai'sa came out around the time when a new character wasn't very exciting anymore. And as a Marksmen, her playstyle wasn't breaking much ground. But you could tell Riot really wanted to hyped Kai'sa. Her release was tied to an event that ended up promoting Miss Fortune more unintentionally, so half the reason why Riot made K/DA was to further promote Kai'sa. That's why in Popstars she's generally in the center of most shots. Especially at the end when she's dashing in between all the girl. *But even then it didn't work!* People left K/DA liking literally every single other character more, rofl! And for the people who knew League of Legends lore, this was just the hay that broke the camel's back. Cause, long story short, when Kai'sa released, her lore fell flat real fast and no one cared. Which is sadly Kai'sa to a T at the end of the day, the character that came out that no one every really cared about. No one really liked her but no one really disliked her. Poor Kai'sa was just, there. x'D
Kai'sa is not an underdog. "Kai'sa came out around the time when a new character wasn't very exciting anymore." Not entirely true, Kai'sa came out when everyone was tired of champions with the same facial features. After this, Riots began releasing more unique female champions and more diversified ones. Now all male characters suffer from this. Kai'sa itself is in the top in terms of the number of skins produced for her, in two seasonal cinematics, part of the KDA and now the most popular Marksman in terms of pick rate.
I honestly think she's is the less to stand out in K/DA bc the singer is good but just ok compared to the other 3, or that's what I thought when I first saw it. But nowadays Kai'Sa is very popular, in 2022 she was like the poster girl from league
In K/DA lore, Evelyn is the founder/leader of the group. K/DA even had some instagram stories of them. not to mention the sheer amount of marketing through Seraphim was crazy but also received a lot of backlash because of her trying to relate to people via metal health problems.
@@Spectacular0_4 i remember reading on their insta (or at least i thought i read) that it was Evelyn. i haven't read the lore since when they first started as a group. so i could be misremembering
I didn't expect KDA today, wow! This made my day, thanks! :) Kinda sad because of the other 2 songs didn't make it :( (Also you don't need to do muffle, because Riot don't copyright their songs for reactors.)
We actually got flagged by YT for copyright so that’s why we had to muffle Pop/stars. Riot must’ve changed their copyright on some of their songs. It’s an ever-changing landscape when it comes to copyright 😭
Glad youre here to watch their reactions!!! We were all excited for them to get to K/DA. Know that Riot copyright has changed as of a couple months ago. This sentiment has been reflected in all of their League reactions so far. We would've done without the muffling effect if we could (trust me it's more work on the editing side to locate and properly get it to pass), but this will have to continue in their reactions during parts that get claimed so their videos don't get blocked.
I have all of k/da on the playlist, Riot really smashed it outta the park with these. Also you gotta watch the worlds opening with k/da it was so SICC. I showed it to my sister and she like "why cant western stuff go as hard or put this much effort in music videos or live shows/events anymore?"
the person rapping for Akali, who you said sounds like 2NE1 (you're prolly referring to CL), is Soyeon from (G)I-DLE. Soyeon is the Main Producer, Leader, and Rapper of the group. the person singing for Ari's part is also from (G)I-DLE, she is the group's Main Vocalist, her name is Miyeon. I think you'll really like (G)-IDLE as a girl group if you guys wanna get back into KPOP again. 😊
I am an evelynn main, i loved her without the skins. but with skins im obsessed. shes so good :> im just really happy they picked her to be part of kda :D
I know they're not really into kpop, but soyeon from gidle is amazing and helped with the writing. she was the blonde in the live show, only true demage. I highly recommend watching gidle. amazing songs and talks about really good things
And this is why im ABSOLUTELY a die-hard KDA fan. Ahri and Eve are my GURLZ (Miyeon from G-IDLE and Madison Beer 🥰🥰🥰) and i will get every damn thing lf merch for them 😍
In the Evelyn video they don't show her face Which plays well with the fact that in game she's constantly invisible to enemies and you don't see her until she is extremely close to you In which by then she's already Prepare to go for the kill
This is my first time coming across this channel but if you're ever interested half of KDA (Ahri and Akali) are in a kpop group called (G)I-dle. I had always liked riot songs casually and almost a year ago got into kpop and it took me a while to realize why the voices I was hearing sounded so familiar to me lol
As a league player and if I'm forced to play jungle I main Eve. She's amazing. Literally a succubus. Her voice lines are amazing and so bad bish vibes. Voice Line: "A man once told me to put on some clothes... so I wore his skin." Eve evil giggles. I also love they use her lvl 6 passive in a way and pair it with Akali. Both of them can go invisible: Akali - Smoke Bomb Eve - Passive (She becomes invisible to other players until she attacks or is hit by an enemy, she goes into a king of spooky silhouette mode and the sound and screen vision also enhances the experience of her ability.) I have the first video KDA mini figurines by Riot. They also have a deal with secret labs and have a chair KDA theme.
Miyeon and Soeyon really ate pop/star And then if ur a neverland u know that (G)i-dle performs pop/star in their concerts (soyeon is the one rapping btw)and miyeon is the one playing "Ari")
I love Pop Stars, like, instantly iconic and put Studio Fortiche on the map, but 'More' gets slept on a little bit. Incredible details and animation, the style is a bit more standard Pixar-ish vibe, but all the champs' personalities really shine in it.
Villain is also my favorite from all the KDA songs and then there's True Damage, which is when Akali wanted to have a "rap" group of her own and she got together with Senna, Yasuo, Ekko and Quiyana. The song is Giants and is pretty good too but Villain is still top tier.
The famous joke for K/DA's More era is that Kaisa and Akali Concept became lyric and dance performance is because RITO put all the budget for Evelynn Concept hahahahaha.
I am a HUUUUUGE K/DA lover. Gotta say, knowing the history of Ahri's skins help appreciate POP/STARS and I'll Show You deeper. Just understanding that she has PopStar Ahri as a skin plays into her rise to stardom in K/DA. I'll Show You is real impactful when you imagine her as a real girl struggling with the entertainment industry.
Thanks for the explanation ladies! I'm a complete noob to LoL (outside of the Arcane anime which I love!) but I'm a 3d artist and have seen KDA character models available from various stores (which I've just got!) I'm pretty sure it's these 3D models that are used in the music videos. The whole concept of creating an augmented reality K-Pop group from champions from the game is amazing to me and having real life K-Pop stars provide the voices is genius!
There was a perfect comment on one of the KD/A video that’s said that Riot Games is posing as a game company while making songs/music that’s better than most mainstream music studios
Ahri = Miyeon, Akali = Soyeon of (G)I-dle, if you want to try some Kpop. They even perform Pop Stars live in their concerts. Latata, Lion, Oh My God, Uh Oh, Senorita, Hwaa, Hann, Tomboy, Allergy, Queencard, really there are too many to list and their songs can be so different from each other.
Yo watching this made me think you'd probably enjoy listening to some champion's music themes. A lot of them (who released not in prehistoric era) have some of the best league music experiences. Hope you'll enjoy it!
K-Pop has evolved a LOT ever since 2NE1 was originally big. BUT you also need to know that 2NE1 has recently come back to music! It's an awesome turn of events!
The funny think is even though there are Korean lyrics, the music was composed by a French composer working for RIOT :D And of course, POP/STARS is animated and directed by Fortiche :p
I'm SO GLAD you recognize Eve for the perfection she is! In Pop Stars she had less of a spotlight, reactors usually only talk about Ahri or Akali. But when I saw Eve in More I GASPED, she's perfectttttt. And Villain is the best I agree, I love the horror imagery in it. Kaisa's song is amazing, I love the dance video
Ahri Lore: Ahri started a solo career (Pop Star Ahri) but she didn't do as well as she wanted, so she (Ahri: Miyeon) got a second chance and made it into the group K/DA with Akali(Soyeon) Kai'sa (Jaira Burn) and Evenlyn (Madison Beer).
Been playing LoL off and on since the first year it came out. I missed out on the whole KDA thing during a long break, when I came back and heard it it blew my mind lol been listening to their songs ever since. Genuinely incredible music. My favorite champ within KDA is Ahri, my favorite in game champ who's a part of KDA is Kai-Sa though (I main ADC).
I used to not pay any mind to Kpop. Then I followed my friends to the front row of Blackpink at Coachella last year. They friggin killed it and I've been kind of obsessed with KPop since lol. KPop reaction channel lowke's?
Ahris part is sung by Miyeon and Akalis part by Soyeon, both from the K-POP group G-IDLE, so this is produced with propper K-POP idols Anyways if you're going to continue to check out more of Riots music productions I Highly recommend checking out Mortal Reminder by Pentakill

Villain was absolutely my obsession for a good 3 months
It's so damn good. I love the instrumental that's on the internet also. It's so creepy.
Same. It really emphasizes what Eve is all about.
And firts heard that song i think just 1 singer but actually 2 singer 😂😂😂😂
That song is so unique, you don't really hear that vibe often
It is on my spotify list.
Considering eve is basically a shadow demon/succubus, and her primary in-game mechanic is stealth and never really knowing exactly where she is until she's killing you, the mv(villain)is absolutely perfect for her character and overall theme.
absolutely!
Well she doesn't really kill you she just sucks your life force using those ribbons she has. We just end up dead because of it. 😂
@@OneAndOnlyZekePolaris Thats still her killing lol, losing your life force means dying, so yes she kills
"No no... don't die yet"

Oh I hope they react to them since one of the is Kaisa main she’d love zdrumgo dum 🥹💕

Everything goes on is so good.
Besides K/DA universe that one is the absolute best from LoL universe unless you're into metal and like pentakill (wich I do too hehe)
Not sure if you guys know but Fortiche did Pop/Stars in the downtime they had inbetween making Episode 1 and the rest of Season 1 of Arcane.
Evelyn's thigh is a religion on it's own

2018 opening ceremony would be a great react!

"I'm a straight up villain"
I'm a straight Evelyne
Do you plan on watching K/DA's The Baddest and Drum Go Dum? They're Akali's and Kaisa's respective songs.

@@Spectacular0_4 i remember reading on their insta (or at least i thought i read) that it was Evelyn. i haven't read the lore since when they first started as a group. so i could be misremembering
I didn't expect KDA today, wow! This made my day, thanks! :) Kinda sad because of the other 2 songs didn't make it :( (Also you don't need to do muffle, because Riot don't copyright their songs for reactors.)
We actually got flagged by YT for copyright so that’s why we had to muffle Pop/stars. Riot must’ve changed their copyright on some of their songs. It’s an ever-changing landscape when it comes to copyright 😭
Glad youre here to watch their reactions!!! We were all excited for them to get to K/DA.
Know that Riot copyright has changed as of a couple months ago. This sentiment has been reflected in all of their League reactions so far. We would've done without the muffling effect if we could (trust me it's more work on the editing side to locate and properly get it to pass), but this will have to continue in their reactions during parts that get claimed so their videos don't get blocked.
@@hungryrabbiddawg They probably did it with the videos that they use more for marketing in general :/
@@hungryrabbiddawg Are you here as their producer? :) Cant wait for the next reaction and whats to come :)
@@elinapettersson1875 Welcome in, fam!
Evelynn is my queen, Id die for her gladly
Evelynn and her song are my favorite, I love her 💙
I have all of k/da on the playlist, Riot really smashed it outta the park with these.
Also you gotta watch the worlds opening with k/da it was so SICC. I showed it to my sister and she like "why cant western stuff go as hard or put this much effort in music videos or live shows/events anymore?"
the person rapping for Akali, who you said sounds like 2NE1 (you're prolly referring to CL), is Soyeon from (G)I-DLE. Soyeon is the Main Producer, Leader, and Rapper of the group. the person singing for Ari's part is also from (G)I-DLE, she is the group's Main Vocalist, her name is Miyeon.
I think you'll really like (G)-IDLE as a girl group if you guys wanna get back into KPOP again. 😊
I am an evelynn main, i loved her without the skins. but with skins im obsessed. shes so good :> im just really happy they picked her to be part of kda :D
I know they're not really into kpop, but soyeon from gidle is amazing and helped with the writing. she was the blonde in the live show, only true demage. I highly recommend watching gidle. amazing songs and talks about really good things
And this is why im ABSOLUTELY a die-hard KDA fan. Ahri and Eve are my GURLZ (Miyeon from G-IDLE and Madison Beer 🥰🥰🥰) and i will get every damn thing lf merch for them 😍
Behind the clips is the french studio FORTICHE production, thay also made the series ARCANE. They just goated!!!
In the Evelyn video they don't show her face Which plays well with the fact that in game she's constantly invisible to enemies and you don't see her until she is extremely close to you In which by then she's already Prepare to go for the kill
This is my first time coming across this channel but if you're ever interested half of KDA (Ahri and Akali) are in a kpop group called (G)I-dle. I had always liked riot songs casually and almost a year ago got into kpop and it took me a while to realize why the voices I was hearing sounded so familiar to me lol
As a league player and if I'm forced to play jungle I main Eve. She's amazing. Literally a succubus. Her voice lines are amazing and so bad bish vibes.
Voice Line:
"A man once told me to put on some clothes... so I wore his skin." Eve evil giggles.
I also love they use her lvl 6 passive in a way and pair it with Akali. Both of them can go invisible:
Akali - Smoke Bomb
Eve - Passive (She becomes invisible to other players until she attacks or is hit by an enemy, she goes into a king of spooky silhouette mode and the sound and screen vision also enhances the experience of her ability.)
I have the first video KDA mini figurines by Riot. They also have a deal with secret labs and have a chair KDA theme.
Miyeon and Soeyon really ate pop/star
And then if ur a neverland u know that (G)i-dle performs pop/star in their concerts (soyeon is the one rapping btw)and miyeon is the one playing "Ari")
KDA and True Damage(live performance) got me and I imagine many people into KPop.
You guys would love the live performance of both kda and true damage
I learned about Big Bang and 2NE1 at the same time when I discovered their "Lollipop" video when it was used to promote a cellphone by LG.
I love Pop Stars, like, instantly iconic and put Studio Fortiche on the map, but 'More' gets slept on a little bit. Incredible details and animation, the style is a bit more standard Pixar-ish vibe, but all the champs' personalities really shine in it.
Villain is both a music video and a concept art video of what the artist can do, which is awesome 👏🏼 Great reactions :3
"This is like Black Pink vibes."
"sounds like 2NE1"
It's literally (G)Idle and Twice.
Villain is also my favorite from all the KDA songs and then there's True Damage, which is when Akali wanted to have a "rap" group of her own and she got together with Senna, Yasuo, Ekko and Quiyana. The song is Giants and is pretty good too but Villain is still top tier.
The famous joke for K/DA's More era is that Kaisa and Akali Concept became lyric and dance performance is because RITO put all the budget for Evelynn Concept hahahahaha.
i love how the two girls from (G)I-dle "Miyeon and Soyeon" are singing Ahri and Akali while "Madison Beer sings Evilyn" and "Jaira Burns sings Kai´Sa"
9:24 The concept of K/DA is that it is a K-pop group, but they suddenly added Chinese lyrics and were shunned in Korea.
Pop Stars was performed on the grand stage during Worlds 2018 finals. You can check it up too.
I am a HUUUUUGE K/DA lover. Gotta say, knowing the history of Ahri's skins help appreciate POP/STARS and I'll Show You deeper. Just understanding that she has PopStar Ahri as a skin plays into her rise to stardom in K/DA. I'll Show You is real impactful when you imagine her as a real girl struggling with the entertainment industry.
damm I would've loved to have seen your reaction to drum go dum😔 still a great reaction tho!
Evelyn inspired my Descendants Vk Wardrobe! I've actually made a Pinterest board with different outfits from Descendants.
Thanks for the explanation ladies! I'm a complete noob to LoL (outside of the Arcane anime which I love!) but I'm a 3d artist and have seen KDA character models available from various stores (which I've just got!) I'm pretty sure it's these 3D models that are used in the music videos.
The whole concept of creating an augmented reality K-Pop group from champions from the game is amazing to me and having real life K-Pop stars provide the voices is genius!
I actually listen to Villain a lot still since it released because it's genuinely just a good song. I love the ominous yet seductive aspects of it.
You guys should watch the kda baddest is not a music video but a lyric video but still it will blow your minds
I do wish yall heard The Baddest on camera. It is basically a lyric video, but the song is killer af.
There was a perfect comment on one of the KD/A video that’s said that Riot Games is posing as a game company while making songs/music that’s better than most mainstream music studios
Ahri = Miyeon, Akali = Soyeon of (G)I-dle, if you want to try some Kpop. They even perform Pop Stars live in their concerts.
Latata, Lion, Oh My God, Uh Oh, Senorita, Hwaa, Hann, Tomboy, Allergy, Queencard, really there are too many to list and their songs can be so different from each other.
My favorite KDA song is Baddest the Akali song. You should definitely check that out if you liked her rap from Pop Stars
Yo watching this made me think you'd probably enjoy listening to some champion's music themes. A lot of them (who released not in prehistoric era) have some of the best league music experiences.
Hope you'll enjoy it!
A lot of K/DA Akali mask were sold during the pandemic lol, A bunch of people selling on ETSY and Amazon.
drum go dum is my favorite kda song, but it mixes the group with live action
honestly , listen to the pentakill songs. My personal favorite is lightbringer (acoustic version). They really have a couple of good songs
If you go through more KDA songs, I would love to hear "the baddest" and live performance of popstars is soooo good. Cant wait for more reactions ;))
K-Pop has evolved a LOT ever since 2NE1 was originally big.
BUT you also need to know that 2NE1 has recently come back to music! It's an awesome turn of events!
Villain is absolutely my fav. I love the vibes and the lyrics are fire af.
I recommend looking at how Pop stars was made, really fun to see how it came together!
in the third song, 4 members of the kpop group
"Twice" sing. (Nayeon, Sana, Jihyo and Chaeyoung)
The funny think is even though there are Korean lyrics, the music was composed by a French composer working for RIOT :D And of course, POP/STARS is animated and directed by Fortiche :p
In the last riot one event in japan, riot had some hololive girls do a cover of pop/stars and the baddest. all versions of kda songs are fire
Something you shuld know, ahri and akaly are miyoen and soyeon, both from kpop group G Idle, maybe you like their music :D
The live Performance at the Worlds i believe of Giants by True Damage is so amazing too. Got really nice live gimmicks on stage!
I'm SO GLAD you recognize Eve for the perfection she is! In Pop Stars she had less of a spotlight, reactors usually only talk about Ahri or Akali. But when I saw Eve in More I GASPED, she's perfectttttt. And Villain is the best I agree, I love the horror imagery in it. Kaisa's song is amazing, I love the dance video
they are real skins in the game
Lo que carrea Evelynn es increíble. De lejos la mas talentosa.
8:30, look at that, you also got the charming skill from Mama Evelyn, the victim increases 😅😅😅
Ahri Lore: Ahri started a solo career (Pop Star Ahri) but she didn't do as well as she wanted, so she (Ahri: Miyeon) got a second chance and made it into the group K/DA with Akali(Soyeon) Kai'sa (Jaira Burn) and Evenlyn (Madison Beer).
Been playing LoL off and on since the first year it came out. I missed out on the whole KDA thing during a long break, when I came back and heard it it blew my mind lol been listening to their songs ever since. Genuinely incredible music. My favorite champ within KDA is Ahri, my favorite in game champ who's a part of KDA is Kai-Sa though (I main ADC).
"Villain" is just the animator showing off their texture. And I am so Here for it!
Evelynn is my absolute favorite champion. Some of the best skins in the game and an absolute baddy.
I used to not pay any mind to Kpop. Then I followed my friends to the front row of Blackpink at Coachella last year. They friggin killed it and I've been kind of obsessed with KPop since lol. KPop reaction channel lowke's?
Villain is always on my playlist. Hands down my favorite song
Ahris part is sung by Miyeon and Akalis part by Soyeon, both from the K-POP group G-IDLE, so this is produced with propper K-POP idols
Anyways if you're going to continue to check out more of Riots music productions I Highly recommend checking out Mortal Reminder by Pentakill
