A skin where Kayn and Rhaast are not enemies and we see them hanging out as close friends every second (Rhaast is his alter ego but that's okay). Absolutely perfect.
Rhaast in most skins: Farewell Kayn! I am in control now! Rhaast in Heartsteel: I am taking over! Now to write some killer songs! Kayn: How about you finish a couple of them first then we’ll talk?
Love this skin, but I think it lacks a lot of music sound effects on the rest of his abilities except for his ultimate. It would be really nice to hear a bit of the track during E in a wall:(
@@Finkasaurus I tried the skin out on PBE and it only played background music whenever I stood still as him :( I hope they consider changing it so it is always playing in the background before it goes live
It's cool, but I think they should have made different dances for each shape. Otherwise, the animations are exquisite and the design of the three shapes is interesting.
Honestly pretty dumb if you ask me. the whole point is that one of them has to kill the other during the match. I get that Rhaast is more of an alter ego for Kayn here but it would still make more sense for the transformation to be that Kayn "commits to a specific style". This just feels a bit weird
it feels weird on this skin coz somthing just doesnt feel right, but prayed for a while to finally see a skin where rhaast and kayn not enemies, just hearing odyssey kkayn voice lines u want them together lol @@Sizzox
Really cool skin for Kayn, my only gripe is that the E doesn’t play the melody when walking though walls. KDA Akali does it while inside the smokescreen
@@cyjanidybel and kda sera has a passive playing her music if she's nearby allies, they could've made a little music playing if kayn kills someone with his ult tbh, they did the same with soul fighter pyke
This skin is really specific, you either love it or hate it I honestly love how they are expanding from Zed comic on Kayn/Akali where Akali considers Kayn a tad bit too crazy for her taste
I doubt it. They're enemies or just teasing each other, I don't know where people got the impression of kayn liking akali. Its only akali thinking kayn was hot but crazy for her tastes. So there isnt any potenitial for a relationship really
I like how in the KDA/TD/HS universe they made it so that Kayn and Akali are friends. It's cute to see them have the same type of personality with him saying "She gets it" and I just imagine them sharing each of their bands' victories with each other. (People corrected me and said KDA/TD Akali are the same person in that universe).
in the normal skin, akali has a voiceline where she basically says "why do the cute ones always have to be crazy". So here, it would seem that they are actually dating / interested and I am here for it.
It's just not finished, and Rhaast isn't an alter ego he's a completely different entity. When Rhaast takes over Kayn is gone, he isn't still in there.
3:46 I just hate that they're really not updating the heal vfx on Rhaast's ult, FOR ANY OF HIS SKIN. That's still the old heal vfx that was used by Tryndamere, Alistar, and the Heal summoner spell as well.
Dude chill it's not about Kayn it's for clarity of gameplay, for you to know what's happening to your enemy. Healing mechanic is coded with color green so it'll never change in any champion's skin. Check coven Nami's W, any Ahri skin passive, Trydamere Q or any Master Yi skin W animations for example. Yeah this color code sucks in some skins but its needed actually
@@nikosmantzzz8273 dunno... It's some half done job for be a legendary skin. Rhaast side it's mixed with Kayne quotes, but if you go blue you snuff Rhaast out? That's a weird choise
@@alessandroseverino8222 I think the reason why rhaast is gone in shadow assasin is that kayn realised rhaast was just an alter ego and he remembered to not be schizophrenic
@@alessandroseverino8222 I think it's just bugged. New Kayn skins are almost always bugged and you can hear all kinds of quotes in each of the forms, no matter if they make sense or not
The only thing I really have a problem with is the shockingly small amount of voice over, it has like 1/4th the amount of voice lines of odyssey kayn. Other than that the skin is amazing, i love the way it looks and all the animations.
I can't actually believe they pulled a true damage ekko on this one. absolutely incredible, i can listen to music without having to open spotify, only downside is having to stay idle...
@@snakeking5009 I have 150k mastery on Kayn and all his skins except snow moon and prestige. This is the only skin that has the color scheme and aesthetic that matches Sephiroth this well
While I like that Rhaast is basically an alter ego for Kayn in this skinline, I feel like when it comes to the emotes and other actions there isn't enough Rhaast voicelines.
I think the best part about Kayn's legendaries is that in BOTH he's friends with/close with Rhaast. Such a cool 180 from their usual parasitic relationship, honestly makes the character 1000x times more interesting.
Just my opinion but I believe that in this Skin Line Rhaast is actually a split personality of Kayn. Usually, it shows that Kayn and Rhaast are 2 beings in one body and always fight for control but this time it's like an alternate personality situation
So if kayn doesn't have special voiceslines for ether form, does it mean kayn is in this skin a schizophrenic in talking to his second personality rhaast?
Skin needs music playing while in E, other music skins like KDA Akali, KDA Eve, and True damage Senna have music playing during an continuous basic ability but none of them were even legendary skins. True damage Ekko which was legendary has music playing all the time replacing summer rift default theme and the music would change/adapt when he used abilities. Currently with this skin Music only plays while Kayn is standing still (which never happens ingame) or when he is using his ultimate. this skin seems quiet in comparison to the previous standard
His shadow form feels like such an afterthought in this skin and it's a real shame. I think they thought really hard about what to do with rhaast and his base skin which admittedly look solid and forgot that kayn has two forms. It's even more evident when you realize his shadow form doesn't even show up in the heartsteel music video. Overall, it's alright if all you play is red kayn but I personally think kayn has much better skins especially odyssey and snow moon.
I haven't seen anyone talking about it but in his blue form his hair and scythe has iridicent color while passive is active (ig it was on cooldown before the ult but got refreshed after it). Looks really cool
Amazing skin, tho I would have prefered it if it was Rhaast that laughed and did the voice for the jokes when you get the for. Other than that, this skin is sick!
I don't like the fact that Rhaast isn't anymore a monster but it feel like Kayn with different voice. I see community that appreciate it so... My personal opinion
I love this skin, but a few things that need to be fixed: - Volume of the track that plays when in walls (if it's even there - I could be hearing things) - Kayn's voice in Rhaast's emotes (not the "together" lines obviously) - Clarity of the audio on Rhaast's R
I think it would be better if Rhaast in the emotes would be the one doing the voicelines at that point cause it's kind of funny how he keeps going to Kayn back to Rhaast
kinda wished there was a different ult effect instead of just a scythe in the air. like how odyssey kayn ult shows their face in hologram for all forms. but still satisfied with every detail they put into this skin.
The effects are all over the place and the sfx is way too loud, the colors are lousy and make it so your ult is nerfed (no surprise factor, it points the exit direction), half of the animation rigs are from Odyssey and there it feels way smoother, and the worst of it all: there's no Rhaast
I honestly don't like the fact when you pick Rhaast he only have a few lines while most of the sounds are Kayn. While in Shadow Assassin Rhaast not says a thing. It makes sense it other skins but here.... They should either make that in both transformations you can keep to listen to both of them or just keep only one of them after it.
His Q looks kinda funky and it's because kayn is always behind his Q fx. This is simply an error by rendering said effects on top of his character and shouldn't be too hard to solve but i think it'd make a huge difference (i dont really expect riot to add new voicelines for even tho that's he best part of odissey and the main selling point of a kayn legendary but i hope they at least solve this vfx error).
If E had music And Ult was as cool as Odyssey It would be better Heartsteel has better vfx overall But Odyssey’s models and THE COOLEST ULT EFFECT Tops it
@@MisterPlague the effects are all over the place, the sfx are too loud, no music if not iddle, the rig animations of half of the skin are Odyssey's. I swear, you guys must start sharing those juices you take.
hahahaha yikes dude, you must be legally blind. "Music if not iddle" Ah sorry, didnt know legendary skins must have music all the time as default. "SFX too loud" wtf does that mean? Thats not a bad thing. And none of the animations are that of Oddyssey. Wtf is wrong with your head.@@user-xg9rt6ph2u
Peee kaa boo from Rhaast emerging from the wall is hella cute! Glad they keeping the cool pose for blue Kayn but this time during his Q 🎉. Amazing work Riot!
@@69hahafunny you're mistaken twice. 1- being wrong it's an absolute state, it can't be "more" or "most" 2- it literally has less custom animations than odyssey compared to the base skin and re-uses many of them. Specially visible in Shadow form (that W is Odyssey frame by frame)
@@user-xg9rt6ph2u "dance and recall are the only new animations" you forgot taunt, joke, laugh, homeguard, idle, AA, i definitely see some similarities, specially in shadow assassin form, but they aren't the same, just like Sorakas newest legendary being very similar to her past ones, but i don't see any direct re used rig animation or anything And i said "you couldn't be" for a reason
Hoping they make it so the Heartsteel skins have a joined dance animation like Yone and Yasuo's default. Two or more HS skins dance emoting together to add to the song would be sick. Like they've done with Dead by Daylight's Legion addons with the stacking music. Rioto please.
Lowkey glad that I like Odyssey better tbh. I don't have to buy another legendary On the other side, this could potentially butcher the opportunity for Odyssey Kayn to come to Wild Rift 😔
NOT what i was expecting to see for a skin that FINALLY making Rhaast and kayn friendly to each other, BUT BOIIII im not disappointment and the animation is so perfect, riot model and animation team truly know what they are doing
Yes this is Pre-Release, I know, and these are just my opinions and thoughts. Rhaast's W looks really odd, the scythe drags across the ground and goes up (as expected), then suddenly is back down so he can strum the guitar, changing the direction of the guitar from up to down in a single frame like that makes it seem like he should have snapped his own arm with the sudden change of momentum. SA W just straight up disappears, like the clone is there for one second, and the next it's just gone, no animation, nothing, it's just gone the next frame, even BASE Kayn (SA form obviously) has an animation of sorts, where the clone becomes a shadow and then disappears, and his other legendary (Odyssey, which came out 5 whole years ago by the way) also makes it seem like his W "sinks" into the ground, after spinning a bunch. The R's looks good at first, but when actually paying attention to them they also look really weird, especially Rhaast's R. On all of them the Scythe is over the enemy's head (obviously), then it's suddenly at the ground to "pick up" Kayn, carry him back up where he does a pose, then it is suddenly back down at the ground where Kayn "slides" out. On both his base skin, and Odyssey, the scythe is at the top, then physically moves down and slices through the enemy, while here it's over their head, then suddenly at the ground to go back up, then suddenly at the ground again and slides out. Rhaast is especially "bad", he goes from the top, to suddenly be at the ground and literally just slides out, that doesn't seem like it would hurt anyone, especially going with the head of the scythe first. Oh and the dance, that horrible dance, again this is my opinion of course, but what on earth is that dance? Base Kayn has a better dance, Odyssey has a much better dance. He's supposed to be in a music group, they do music videoes, they're (probably) on stage every now and then (or at least will be, assuming they do well in this "world"). Why is he just standing there? He doesn't do any moves, he doesn't dance, he doesn't run around, he doesn't do ANYTHING but slightly move his arm back and forth. And then my last "real" complain (have many other nitpicks), the back animation... They all start the exact same way, and the lasers look so off, like I assume they were going for the same effect as in the music video where Kayn where jumping through lasers, but they're all on the ground, he's not jumping through anything, just over them, they look so flat. It would be nice if the lasers where actually "3D", and at least some variation in the running and jumping between the forms. At least the very last piece of the animation is different, where they all do a little thing then pose. But even the 3 forms of base Kayn has more varied backs, and his other legendary skin, Odyssey (which again, came out 5 years ago) has COMPLETELY different backs.
this skin is great, but the one thing that bothers me is the hair on the model (base kayn) since it doesnt really match what we saw in the mv/splash art
I love him and akali's dynamic. It's definitely great seeing their relationship develop in this universe. I do have to say though, is it just me or does shadow assassin kayn's visuals look like a huge downgrade from base form? I really hope Riot improves it somehow. Maybe lose the long hair, or just shorten it? And give him more fashion than just being topless since he looks exactly like his base skin's shadow assassin form. Might even go so far as to say his shadow assassin looks worse than his base skin. But still, this skin is great. I'm happy to see a rhaast form I could definitely play without worrying about the lore.
i think the assasssin just dont have the same amount of details, he basically didnt show up at the music video. about the hair they can't realy change it since its a rule that they cant change the siluet of the champ. srry for bad english
@@danielpereira5214 I think I could live with the hair. But the shadow assassin form does lose a lot of the detail. I wish they didn't take away so much from it since it just looks like a topless kayn (which it technically is). Guess I'll just take the rhaast form whenever I can lol.
I don't give a crap about the boyband or whatever but I can really appreciate the creative freedom put into this skin. Also I like the idea of Rhaast and Kayn just being allies and willingly changing to fit a form rather than one killing the other. As a duo they're much better as a character because you get to enjoy their opposite interactions. It also doesn't make any sense to kill one or the other when Varus exists and all three entities in the host are present.
I like how when you go rhaast mode, the scyth becomes part electric guitar, and rhasst strums it when in his w animation, so cool!
in Shadow assassin the end becomes a mic and he sings into it during W
In both sucks, the concept is boring, and there's no Rhaast, just Kayn and his mental disability

there is rhaast, he uses rhaast name when he goes on stage@@user-xg9rt6ph2u
I love it
OH MY GOD, HE'S TALKING WITH K/DA AKALI? THAT'S SUCH A COOL TOUCH
this is a need, not a want
Having yourself as your brother inside your head
This IS SUBLIME
I mean, people take meds to avoid that, so... Yeah, not great
Rhaasty Boy
@@user-xg9rt6ph2u its like a sibling rivalry sometime the best thing to do , is stayed out of each other way
@@motafu1 "whAt is this energy ?"
he sounds so much more like happy chaos from guilty gear i just cant its sooo good
Well, it is the same VA after all...
@@JRPGLOVER true but i feel in og kayns voice lines he did a slightly different voice
I honestly don't like the fact when you pick Rhaast he only have a few lines while most of the sounds are Kayn. While in Shadow Assassin Rhaast not says a thing. It makes sense it other skins but here.... They should either make that in both transformations you can keep to listen to both of them or just keep only one of them after it.
him calling akali trash is funny
His Q looks kinda funky and it's because kayn is always behind his Q fx. This is simply an error by rendering said effects on top of his character and shouldn't be too hard to solve but i think it'd make a huge difference (i dont really expect riot to add new voicelines for even tho that's he best part of odissey and the main selling point of a kayn legendary but i hope they at least solve this vfx error).
None shall overthrow Odyssey as the best Kayne/Rhaast skin, but this comes damn close!
What are you gearing? Share
If E had music
And Ult was as cool as Odyssey
It would be better
Heartsteel has better vfx overall
But Odyssey’s models and THE COOLEST ULT EFFECT
Tops it
overall animations and most effects are already better
@@MisterPlague the effects are all over the place, the sfx are too loud, no music if not iddle, the rig animations of half of the skin are Odyssey's. I swear, you guys must start sharing those juices you take.
hahahaha yikes dude, you must be legally blind. "Music if not iddle" Ah sorry, didnt know legendary skins must have music all the time as default. "SFX too loud" wtf does that mean? Thats not a bad thing. And none of the animations are that of Oddyssey. Wtf is wrong with your head.@@user-xg9rt6ph2u
Rhaast looks soooo SICK with the guitar-scythe UGH!!!
None will replace Odyssey but it is very good.
Odyssey gang, still the best thing Riot has ever put out.
i mean, no form and assassin odyssey is better, but holy this rhaast looks dope af
@@shinimashitsu_Nah, odyssey rhaast looks better
@@window9213snowmoon is best
Peee kaa boo from Rhaast emerging from the wall is hella cute! Glad they keeping the cool pose for blue Kayn but this time during his Q 🎉. Amazing work Riot!
The dance is just too good.
Sick skin, i´ll buy it for sure. But hopefully they´ll make some differences between Rhaast and Shadow, like other recalls
i used to hate going red kayn cause i didnt want to kill the guy. now they make this skin and i can play red kayn again!!
rjgjswj SAME
The purpose of playing Kayn is to kill the guy. Now you can't, there's two of them
I feel they coulda did more to this skin but it’s still 🤯
Besides the dance (very simple imo, not bad tho) i love this skin damn
Funny, as the dance and the recall are the only new animations, all the rest are reused rigs from both his base and Odyssey
@@user-xg9rt6ph2uI wish odyssey had any of those ult exiting animations
@@user-xg9rt6ph2u you couldn't be more wrong lol
@@69hahafunny you're mistaken twice.
1- being wrong it's an absolute state, it can't be "more" or "most"
2- it literally has less custom animations than odyssey compared to the base skin and re-uses many of them. Specially visible in Shadow form (that W is Odyssey frame by frame)
@@user-xg9rt6ph2u "dance and recall are the only new animations" you forgot taunt, joke, laugh, homeguard, idle, AA, i definitely see some similarities, specially in shadow assassin form, but they aren't the same, just like Sorakas newest legendary being very similar to her past ones, but i don't see any direct re used rig animation or anything
And i said "you couldn't be" for a reason
Hoping they make it so the Heartsteel skins have a joined dance animation like Yone and Yasuo's default.
Two or more HS skins dance emoting together to add to the song would be sick. Like they've done with Dead by Daylight's Legion addons with the stacking music. Rioto please.
Love the recall animation with the HEARTSTEEL song and that on-going bgm
Can't ignore that shoulder swing
That Rhaast recall animation is op
I’m definitely buying this and the chromas when it comes out hope they put some music for the E ability
Nah I'm buying this the second it comes out I swear
Lowkey glad that I like Odyssey better tbh. I don't have to buy another legendary
On the other side, this could potentially butcher the opportunity for Odyssey Kayn to come to Wild Rift 😔
NOT what i was expecting to see for a skin that FINALLY making Rhaast and kayn friendly to each other, BUT BOIIII im not disappointment and the animation is so perfect, riot model and animation team truly know what they are doing
heartsteel kayn and kda akali! beautiful.ty riot.I also happen to main both of them.
I wish his Jokes/Taunts in Rhaast form has Rhaast's voice.
yeah i dont understand this
It's a pre-release, but still makes sense. Rhaas't is like an alter ego on Kayn's mind in this skin.
kinda dont like it idk i wanted to be like a maniac to the band and egoist af
@@ViniciusRibeiro-vg4oq
Dance is a NewJeans reference? Makes sense since they made the worlds anthem.
Pretty cool!
OH MY GOD as kayn main who only play rhaast seeing rhaast break dance Everytime he uses Q Literally made scream
I am soo gonna buy this skin
reminder Samira's is ultimate
literally higher quality than the samira skin
Oh, my god ... a skin where Rhaast and Kayn are friends, and you HEAR their voices talking to each other even if you go Rhaast???
Instant buy.
Yes this is Pre-Release, I know, and these are just my opinions and thoughts.
Rhaast's W looks really odd, the scythe drags across the ground and goes up (as expected), then suddenly is back down so he can strum the guitar, changing the direction of the guitar from up to down in a single frame like that makes it seem like he should have snapped his own arm with the sudden change of momentum.
SA W just straight up disappears, like the clone is there for one second, and the next it's just gone, no animation, nothing, it's just gone the next frame, even BASE Kayn (SA form obviously) has an animation of sorts, where the clone becomes a shadow and then disappears, and his other legendary (Odyssey, which came out 5 whole years ago by the way) also makes it seem like his W "sinks" into the ground, after spinning a bunch.
The R's looks good at first, but when actually paying attention to them they also look really weird, especially Rhaast's R.
On all of them the Scythe is over the enemy's head (obviously), then it's suddenly at the ground to "pick up" Kayn, carry him back up where he does a pose, then it is suddenly back down at the ground where Kayn "slides" out.
On both his base skin, and Odyssey, the scythe is at the top, then physically moves down and slices through the enemy, while here it's over their head, then suddenly at the ground to go back up, then suddenly at the ground again and slides out.
Rhaast is especially "bad", he goes from the top, to suddenly be at the ground and literally just slides out, that doesn't seem like it would hurt anyone, especially going with the head of the scythe first.
Oh and the dance, that horrible dance, again this is my opinion of course, but what on earth is that dance?
Base Kayn has a better dance, Odyssey has a much better dance.
He's supposed to be in a music group, they do music videoes, they're (probably) on stage every now and then (or at least will be, assuming they do well in this "world").
Why is he just standing there? He doesn't do any moves, he doesn't dance, he doesn't run around, he doesn't do ANYTHING but slightly move his arm back and forth.
And then my last "real" complain (have many other nitpicks), the back animation...
They all start the exact same way, and the lasers look so off, like I assume they were going for the same effect as in the music video where Kayn where jumping through lasers, but they're all on the ground, he's not jumping through anything, just over them, they look so flat.
It would be nice if the lasers where actually "3D", and at least some variation in the running and jumping between the forms.
At least the very last piece of the animation is different, where they all do a little thing then pose.
But even the 3 forms of base Kayn has more varied backs, and his other legendary skin, Odyssey (which again, came out 5 years ago) has COMPLETELY different backs.
This is a W for akali she gets her man in another universe
this skin is great, but the one thing that bothers me is the hair on the model (base kayn) since it doesnt really match what we saw in the mv/splash art
Akali and Kayn shippers are getting a taste i see
I flippin’ love the dance. It’s so fresh fr
THIS IS SO SILLY
I don't love how the Rhaast emotes still have the Kayn voice
KAYN AND AKALI CONFIRMEDDD
That's the power of music ! ❤️
skin perfeita nem jogo de kayn mais ate deu vontade com ela
i freaking love the color pallete of the shadow form
and his shiny ass neon green hair 😍
I love him and akali's dynamic. It's definitely great seeing their relationship develop in this universe.
I do have to say though, is it just me or does shadow assassin kayn's visuals look like a huge downgrade from base form? I really hope Riot improves it somehow. Maybe lose the long hair, or just shorten it? And give him more fashion than just being topless since he looks exactly like his base skin's shadow assassin form. Might even go so far as to say his shadow assassin looks worse than his base skin.
But still, this skin is great. I'm happy to see a rhaast form I could definitely play without worrying about the lore.
i think the assasssin just dont have the same amount of details, he basically didnt show up at the music video. about the hair they can't realy change it since its a rule that they cant change the siluet of the champ. srry for bad english
@@danielpereira5214 I think I could live with the hair. But the shadow assassin form does lose a lot of the detail. I wish they didn't take away so much from it since it just looks like a topless kayn (which it technically is).
Guess I'll just take the rhaast form whenever I can lol.
Omg the Transformation is SOOOOOO goood
Feels like an epic skin aside from the emotes ngl
You can’t be serious 💀
Bro what
MAN ! Joke animation with Akali texiting ! Love it
Damn kayn looks breedable.
I don't give a crap about the boyband or whatever but I can really appreciate the creative freedom put into this skin.
Also I like the idea of Rhaast and Kayn just being allies and willingly changing to fit a form rather than one killing the other. As a duo they're much better as a character because you get to enjoy their opposite interactions. It also doesn't make any sense to kill one or the other when Varus exists and all three entities in the host are present.
this is one of the best skins ive ever seen and i dont play jg or kaynl
A Legendary skin that has more (and better) animations than an Ultimate skin...poor Samira.
Red kayn plays the guitar on skills while blue kayn sings that’s really cool
