Linkin Park is hosting a concert inside the palace with expensive ticket prices and the tickets were sold out. As a result, Caps, an NA rookie, a random guy from Brazil and an army of Deft cosplayers all want to go in to watch LP without a ticket. However, the security team consisting of T1 members was there to only allow ticket holders into the concert hall. In the end the security team leader, Faker, comes out to deal with the mob himself.
Stop saying Bin, that was Deft fr. Best narrative, now it makes sense in my head. I'm bad at recalling faces and now I'm going crazy recognizing Who's who.
I didn't even know Yike was supposed to be Yike (or was that Hans Sama?) and Guma with the hoodie of Xayah almost missed him, but when he got pulled by Keria's Thresh chain then it made sense. That was definitely not Bin XD. Bin's hairstyle should have been captured at least, if not for BLG's flag/insignia, I would have thought it was Deft on the MV. 😅 My niece draws faces better that Rito's animators for sure.
@@offthegrid777 yike and hansama arent in the video..do you mean massu? it's actually a funny phenomenon you discovered here: Studies have shown that people of differing ethnic backgrounds tend to focus on different parts of the face in making their identifications. so for a westerner these asians look like Bin, or Faker or Oner...to an Asian they don't - because a westerner will primarily focus on mouth-chin, eyes and colour (hair, eyes) to identify a person, an asian will focus primarily on the eye-nose-cheek portion of the face because the hair and eye colour doesn't vary as much in their culture..quite interesting right?
People are way too naive to think it's only T1 fans, or even only the Korean community. The MV is laughed at and trashed by the LPL community on Hupu. WBG and JDG wiped out of existence, unreasonably long screentime of Bin, no T1 vs LPL, everyone is Deft, god forbid even Bin didn't realise himself. Ofc, they too respect Faker as well.
Actually the complaints are not only from Korean fans, some Chinese fans are complaining too because Bin doesnt look like him. He himself said that it does not look like him, same with Keira. If players can't recognize the image that is supposed to be them then there is a problem.
What I don't understand is they had the perfect opportunity for a "storyline mv trilogy" since last year's storyline could be seen as the culmination of both the storylines of RISE and Gods. You should be put in jail for throwing away this opportunity handed to you on a diamond platter as a director.
T1 4th World Champhion after 7 years WBG dark horse in the finals JDG Golden Road attempt T1 vs 4 LPL T1 winning it in Korea Nah all bad Linkin Park comeback yeh thats it😂(Rito probably)
@@VaMage no ones saying song is bad bro except to people who just dont like rock genre, the animation quality is good but you cant deny that the Asian players thats animated have a very small difference even Deft mistook Bin for himself, its not just one person either who say it many people say it
I understand that Riot wants a lot of regions to be represented, but its crazy that Massu and a random Cblol player got that much screentime while Ruler/TheShy have yet to get anything in any Worlds vid.
Caps also showed up when he went out in groups last year.... They should've just had the players and teams t1 faced on their way to the crown even if they were all lpl it would've been fine imo.
The only valid reason I could think of as why they gave them so much screentime is the schedule of this year's worlds. Given that the schedule of matches is more convenient to the western population, I think they're trying to appeal more to those audience.
@@4thwall826 Oh sorry, I was referring to Western player's increase in screentime. With LPs screen time, maybe they just want to please LP's fans. I guess.
100 % agree that they should just make a video of the year before. Rise is amazing for that exact reason, as well as the nods it makes to past world champion teams too with the statues at the summit. And yeah, the singers feel so incredibly out of place in the MV.
I loved the song i really did, but i gotta agree about the animation story. They had perfect material from the previous worlds and they tossed it in the garbage. Also Imagine Dragons did a song for League Worlds too and they werent in the video at all so I dont know why people use that argument as well.
Only 2 out of 10 worlds songs were about previous worlds' stories, I don't get why people are suddenly so mad about it not being about the previous worlds. I personally enjoy the current year getting hyped much more. As a sidenote, don't get the "perfect material" argument. Sure, it's a nice story but it's all T1 vs LPL and they want to include other regions.
I'll say it again. They should've picked it up from the 2023 worlds MV where Deft cait snipes T1 off the platform (?). Then show T1's struggle throughout the year (Faker's injury, their summer struggle) until they lift the trophy again. They could've definitely still played with the theme of the crown being a heavy burden to bear for T1 and Faker. The story was laid out for them and they fumbled
looking through the countless song reactions online, most of them are relating the heavy is the crown towards LP's story. Like, what?? It is shown front and center that it is the WORLDS ANTHEM, and yet people are only looking at LP instead of League. this is the most infuriating thing seeing just talking about LP constantly
@@Endra88 well even just start from the beginning him winning multiple titles then not being able to win. And then losing in finals the prior year only to come back and win would work. But I will say if they just only did from them losing the previous year after defts caitlyn shot would work pretty well too
@@aikentang Most likely given that Linkin Park is relatively mainstream, I think Riot was trying to cater to them and their fans. Their mindset must be why bother trying to please the already existing die-hard fans of league and lol esports? They probably want to target the fans of LP that doesn't play LOL.
Just because you know and care about the story doesn't mean that everyone who would watch the music video would know the same. Linkin park is nothing to snort about like riot's past song artists like newjeans and lilnasx and imagine dragons. They would obviously be demanding for their own feature in this video. Also the song is for the fucking music? Did everyone just forget that with a song you listen to the music and not sit there to jerk off to your favourite league player being featured in the video?
I swear if riot didn't animated Linkin park and just focus on the player, people will enjoy the song more and there no complain at all except for fans who didn't like the song at first but every world song there will be fans like that but eventually they will like it
Also the rumors that flying around this song doesn't specifically write for world anthem but passing the crown from Chester to Emily in a sense this is LP song not even anthem it's crazy@@exoski4730
1. Faker's crown falls to the ground after being hit by an arrow fired by Ruler. 2. Faker loses balance and fall into the darkness. 3. Several players appear together on the stairs above the battlefield, where T1's players are fighting. 4. They won the fight, and Faker sits on the throne while wearing the crown. 5. Vibration is heard, and many players flock with the flags of several teams. 6. Faker slowly walks into the battlefield with his team mates as he stands up with a azir's staff. Ends by zooming in on the backside of them. Riot, is this hard?
This is definitely based on a good MV. On top of this, having players on CAPS, DEFT, etc. stopping GOAT from trying to crown would have been really nice to see.
i think the linkin park animation is fine but it rly felt like a music video instead of a worlds anthem. also, it's kinda sus that they have a lot of screentime, maybe they paid for most of the animation budget instead of riot?
Maybe LP saw what Riot did with Enemy MV and was like, we want that! hahaha But come one man, this is for Worlds Anthem. Can't they have done another song for Arcane and have their faces plastered throughout the MV on that one?
it IS a linkin park music video!!! People dont understand ... last year it was a riot song that FEATURED a kpop band thats now irrelevant. This is a LINKIN PARK SONG, not a RIOT song. This is linkin parks song that riot used.
The amount of cope to say it's just T1 fans. It's lack of consideration for players after so many bangers in the past is clear. The music is definitely in my ballpark, it's the stuff from my high school days, another generic LP song, but I'm watching Worlds for the story of these players, the live performances are OK, but it's never the reason I'm watching worlds. T1 can always make it in this video since they are the reigning champs, so they could have not made worlds and still be in the video, but what about the players from the other regions, who directed this shxt. It feels so disrespectful especially when you compare it to old worlds mvs.
Lp sucks now not the same. Even shinodas rap sucks. No Chester. Also the video sucks straight up. Could have made an insane storyline video but no. Like last worlds was so hype and they used none of it
its just classic hater logic "hate the song/mv = must be a dumbass t1 fan lol" absolute braindead when they managed to offend entire Korea and China league fanbases
where is Jdg and Wbg then? they not even mention in the video at all.T1 fans my s, not even korean are complaning lil bro, stop shiting only on T1 fans , T1 haters are delusional as well
I think my major issue with all this is that people think its T1 fans complaining about this MV - but i am with Caedrel on this - its not just T1 fans - i am sure every single league player who follows league content would have a problem with this MV. Quit making this about T1 fans being crybabies - its really not like that - its the whole league community who has an issue with this MV (as they should). PS: I love the song. I think its amazing - ive been listening to it on repeat since last night 😆
Disagree, league players are crying for nothing: literally best MV since take over. Of course there are valid criticism like chovy looking like Deft and a little bit too much of LP screentime, but it's not enough to make it deserve so much hatred. That negativity mostly comes from koreans, the rest of the World followed because in League, koreans are always "right". EDIT : to clarify, I disagree with the words OP wrote in parenthesis at the end : "as they should". I'm not talking about T1.
@@emilvifrancia2632 You're entitled to your opinion. I am not saying it deserves the "hate" its getting. In fact - if you ask me personally, i don't mind the MV all that much (I am a T1 fan) Hate is a strong word but i definitely think as compared to the MVs we've had in the years prior - this video is a straight up downgrade especially considering the story t1 had last year and the struggles they faced with Faker's injury, team issues plus JDG's golden road, etc. - it just feels like riot had epic ingredients to work with but they ended up cooking something super bland and tasteless 😅
@@emilvifrancia2632 garbage. GODS was 100x better. Also read the chinese forums, they are up in arms about the MV. See its not just t1 fans, and there's good reason why its getting a lot of hate.
@@emilvifrancia2632I fking hate it. Stories and LP screentime aside, they made all the asian players different versions of Deft while western players can easily be identified, This is just straight up racism.
Lmao stop the glaze bro. They disrespected JDG and WBG with this mv... theres nothing about worlds 23 in this mv... just a mv stunt for LP promotion So sit down lil bro and stfu@@emilvifrancia2632
Of course people hated it. It’s the Starwalking MV but ten times worse. A song that’s clearly meant for the artist and then they get inserted into it but even longer. If you go to the MV and refresh the comments you’ll keep seeing Korean, Chinese, Taiwanese, Vietnamese and Japanese comments mad at it being bad or the racism.
swear to god I have never said bad things on this years worlds song and mv, but holy shit the mv w/o Linkin Park makes it like 10 times better with the atmosphere, vibe. it just hits way harder.
It is 10 times better but still crap , thats how bad it is , just a random battle royale , not showing Jdg or wbg or the climbing of T1 , the revenge against ruler , the comeback of the goat , like many stuff to do , great narrative and its just a random battle royale with the only T1 , Chovy , bin cosplaying deft and caps as iconic players , although G2 didnt even make to playoffs
it is just like how Pedro usually pause when ads hit to not ruin the immersion. LP jump cut cameo is like the ads that are ruining the immersion of League
WORLDS ANTHEM should be for the PLAYERS, not for a LP to promote their new singer 💀 its an INTERNATIONAL TOURNAMENT and they know it, they're using League's GLOBAL fanbase as a launch pad and it shows. People keep saying it's T1 fans when its THE PLAYER BASE 🤡
I'm not a T1 fan but when the title of the anthem is "Heavy is The Crown", then everyone sort of expects how Faker and T1 came back from their bad performances in 2023 LCK summer to becoming the only LCK remaining in the best of four, and how they won the worlds in the home soil- moreover it's Faker's 4th win after 7 years. They should focus on this narrative then featuring worthless LP. Also there were so many mistakes in the video- Oner didn't play Viego and Keria didn't play Nautilus during the entirety of last year's worlds. Also people couldn't recognize who Bin and Chovy were in the video. My suspicion is that Riot paid LP way more than what they had. Then they chose a creator of the video who was willing to do the job with much less pay and this crap is what we get. Complete disaster.
"worthless LP" hahahhah surelyyyy not a t1 fan and lck enjoyer right? go look at EVERYTHING riot did for faker/t1 alone in 2024. go on since u clearly have a goldfish memory. go check. the only thing thats true about the animation is how they mostly look like deft but well.....
I don't even give a shift whether it is about t1 or not. Hype up the league and the world's is what the trailer is suppose to do but we got this garbage.
@@fnc_wave Why do people keeps making argument like “Riot did a lot for Faker already so the MV doesn’t have to be about him”? Worlds’ anthem is about Worlds and its reigning champ, regardless of what Riot did in the past. There are also a shit tons of people who only watch Worlds so the anthem plays a huge part to show them what Worlds is and they’re not gonna know what Riot did for Faker and they don’t give a shit either. This is a Worlds song and it MUST be about Worlds and it should be good because it’s what people want, not what “Riot did a lot for Faker”
@@fnc_wave "But Riot already gave a lot to Faker and T1, waaaah. This should be LP's time to shine!" Bro, I swear to god if LP doesn't win this year's worlds. Lmao
Enemy is not a worlds song. There's a billboard in Star Walkin that advertises Lil Nas X, I think that's the closest thing to a precedent here. In my opinion the band's time to shine is the finals opening ceremony, not the video for the worlds song.
@@JgHaverty Okay, but what a nice way for a band to win the dislike of an entire community though. I guess having a lead singer in Scientology wasn't enough negative public opinion for them. They're making it really easy to be of the opinion that LP died with Chester.
@@Chromodar I dont think you understand something -> Linkin Park is MORE POPULAR than KOREA. ITs more popular than the entirety of League. They do not need YOUR approval. Get mad at riot for asking to use linkin parks song, but getting mad at linkin park for being in their own song is WILD. Its peak immaturity and institutionalized racism. If this was a k pop group, there would be no controversy lmao
@@JgHaverty No one is mad at Linkin Park for being in their own song. They're mad that the worlds video effectively has half the runtime of other worlds videos to work with because something else taking up the other half. If it was a k pop group it would be the exact same thing. If it was Chrissy Constanza bending backwards it would be the exact same thing. If it was your mom stripping out of her underwear it would be the exact same thing. Video would suck, people would be mad. Institutionalized racism? What are you even yapping about man? Do you think scientology is a race or smth?
I hate the idea it's just t1 fans. Like maybe people just want to worlds video to be about worlds. I don't even really mind too much they put the band in but the criticism is fair that the focus should be on promoting the players not riot promoting Linkin park Edit: random side note. Having the ruined king be this year's worlds skin was a good choice
T1 haters have T1 and T1 fans rent-free inside their heads. That's just how it is At this point the haters are 10 times more obnoxious than the actual toxic fans
Tbh there arent any hate on LP and their song its just on riot and the way they portrayed it. Like literally i love LP but im not watchin their new song’s MV am i? I was expecting a MV for league of legends huh
@@drakker2116 try to understand them a little..there's a reason league MVs focus exclusively on league not artists, league is what brings the viewers from different continents together at worlds...I didn't know anything about Kpop or new jeans, I sure wouldn't want them in the MV no matter how famous they are in Korea...the T1 fans legit don't know linkin park, not at all, rock isn't big there and neither is LP.. for many of them it's just some random artists appearing in a music video that was supposed to highlight the game, their team because they won and frankly the goat of league who won his 4th title - and let me say also: league in Korea is a different beast, it is bigger than any artist, in the west we might say 'yeah, ok, it's LP though and league is just league' but in Korea they say 'this is LEAGUE, who the fuck are these random ass clowns' - in the west a LP association may seem huge pushing from a game from fringe into pop culture, in Korea league IS mainstream pop culture, any artist is secondary..in Korea riot devalues the brand by letting the game backseat to an artist, especially one they dont know

I don’t think, it’s just T1 fans.. I have watched most of the MV for LoL Worlds, and this is like the first time that they much focus more on the singer/band.
The amount of people who don't understand why the MV is being criticised and blaming T1 fans is ridiculous. The song is supposed to celebrate the winners and hype up Worlds. It's not supposed to be an LP MV. Korean fans are upset because of this. No one is saying the song sucks (maybe some but a small minority).
In my opinion, this year's MV should have been in a 2 times period 1 where they tell the story of worlds 2023, with the LPL vs T1 storyline, Ruler Scout TheShy all of the classic and maybe show BLG (with bin) defeated to later on show em as the first seed of LPL and a real threat to the LCK / Worlds 2024 trophy 2 what they put in the actual MV (minus certain things and maybe a better representation of the asian players, Guma on Varus and Keria on Bard) They could have done something better with more meaning, if they removed the linkin park self insert into the mv with all the screen time they add maybe put more instrumental for the beginning to make story telling easier Last year New Jeans weren't in their MV despite them being a kpop group, they are known to love brand deals and earning money through ads and making themselves visible yet they didn't and we had a really good MV (the music was really good in my opinion, better than this one)
They have to milk and depict T1 as the final boss who are unstoppable. Instead of showing what makes a sport player truly great, like no matter how many times an athlete gets defeated, they always comeback in greater forms to achieve their titles and we can see this from Faker, that's what makes him the GOAT. But it will appeal to mindless T1 fans and generate more money, positive reviews if they just illustrates T1 was already great and perfect from the get go and everyone else is always just mere challengers that never got close to T1 nor they never defeated them.
The thing with the musiv video is when you have a band like LP that's been around for years and only done traditional music videos (showing the band in the video) while also trying to debut a new vocalist it's on par with what I expected. As for it being a good Worlds MV, I feel it could be better. Song goes hard though
imagine ruler and theshy didnt make it to the 24MV and their performance last year, and they include some random players lmao and particularly LP lmfao
I think the slow mode feels jarring mainly due to low frame rate, if those shot didn't just get slow down but also got interpolation with ai or some shit, it would look way better.
Keep the music - I love LP and this is a BANGER Keep the animation - it's fluid, extremely well done. Fix the faces - had a bit of trouble recognizing Chovy and at the start Bin did look like Deft. And.... Finally, overhaul the story of the video. The current video just tells us how difficult it is to defend a crown - that's it, like nothing cool happened last year. Riot completely missed out on the perfect opportunity to tell a story of how T1 overcame their problems in LCK (eg. losing lots of games, Faker getting injured and had to be subbed out, Faker rejoining the starting lineup and reignites T1) which I think is why many LCK fans were losing it. You can even include JDG in it, would've been cool to see them since they had an allstar lineup and were on a rampage last year before they got stopped by T1 then lastly, include LNG and WBG - just show them getting stomped or something lol. Ok stop it, Rito sign me up - I can work remotely!
Since a lot of people don’t know why there’s no JDG or Weibo in the MV. The animation are taken place in 2024 which is after T1 won worlds. Cause if you pause at 1:04 in World’s music video you can see kkoma with T1 and he only came back to T1 this year. This is the reason why you only see Chovy, Bin, Caps in this video which is this year powerhouse region and JDG/ruler are no where in sight. Please like so more people can see and understand the events in the MV. Yes I don’t like this year Worlds MV as well. “5th trophy is for a better music video” Also it is not only T1 fan complaining, most of Korean fans and a lot of Chinese fan are complaining about too much LP screen time and player’s character design
Riot wrote title as an anthem of 2024 Worlds. But video seems to be more like LP's MV. If they put more players than LP, it might looks like challenging to defending Champs.
Too me it seems that there ambition was to put in characters that finished first instead of 100 percent guessing. So to actually do animation work while waiting for results they put in the band to fill in time because this time they didint have alot of time to animate the winners of each region. So they animated all t1 portions and band portions then put the rest in as they won. Probably wouldint have been possible without the padding.
But then that doesn't explain why brance from red canids is in the video because they aren't even in worlds and why chovy is in the video instead of zeka
My bet is that the teams in the video were the main protagonit of msi, we got g2 with the upset on top, blg second place, geng winning it, flyquest the lcs revelation with the rookie etc
8:45 What's next? In game Pop-up ads? They're gonna test it with grey screen ads like skins then they'll continue with google ads I guess? it looks like this is where they're heading.
I feel like Rise has just broken everyone's expectations for what the Worlds mv should be. Before Rise, the Worlds video was never about telling the story about specific players. If the music videos for Legends Never Die, or even Phoenix or Take Over were released today, everyone would hate them.
lmao you realize that RISE came before Phoenix and Take Over right? Phoenix in particular is well liked because it showed marquee players and what theyre going through while showing stuff from their past. Legends never Die wasnt about any particular player, same with Warriors. But at least they're relevant. Actual League champions going through hardship just like PRO players. Highlighting similarities. its a different but acceptable take. Warriors was a shoutout to the fans playing the game. They told a story, and focused on what's important. Even Ignite for how eh the beats are in that song, people still rewatch because they pay homage to popular plays. They are relevant. Why is Worlds Collide not popular despite being a good song? Well the MV sucks, it told no story, put out no hype.
@@NousagiBrat I know they came out after Rise lol. I was just naming MVs that I think the community would hate it came out now. And what you mean? Phoenix just showed footage of 3 players sitting down or in a train and shit. They had no story about how an LPL team finally won Worlds, just Rookie standing here, and then cuts to Lissandra. Do you honestly believe the community today would be happy with that? Take Over and Legends Never Die also did not tell the stories of specific players. Legends Never Die focused more on the actual league champs and Take Over had a random OC fight people from the distant past. Could you imagine if they did that today? Everyone would complain about how it's a disgrace to the players who won the previous year and the lack of a narrative.
@@emperesque1218 I dont like to be that guy but ignite did it before rise. Also the main problem with these is the lp jarry self inserts and bad pacing of the video
Just saying T1 crybabies is so disingenuous everyone that doesnt fan boy the song can realize that it had so much more potential and RITO HAD A FRICKING YEAR TO MAKE IT GOOD AND THEY GAVE US MORE LP THAN FAKER... such a cope saying haters gonna hate at most its a 6.5/10 for a WORLDS VIDEO WITH SUCH A STORY TO TELL...
Riot will learn from this , hopefully! Js make a amazing animation vid about the team that won the previous year. They’re story that’s it . Everyone will be happy
BROO SRSLY. i hated the last parts. its the damn climax and they keep flashing the band which really is anti climatic. it was as if telling its about them and not the Worlds. also, i thought these World Anthem videos were kind of tribute to the last worlds? what changed this year? was i wrong? it seemed like it to me
Yes because the rumors that run around this song wasn't even write for worlds specifically but for passing the baton of LP singer and the rumors also make sense if you know a little bit about the current LP
So now K'Sante's W is the easiest ability to avoid in the game even in all out. He can't follow you over walls, so if you have one dash, you can just escape his All Out. He's also way slower, so you don't even need to dash-you can just walk away. A 40% win rate in all ranks right now seems pretty representative of all these garbage changes. Idk what they are smoking but the problem isn't the dashes but the damage beeing flat while he is on his R and act like an assassin and not like a Bruiser. They just want him to be dead i guess . Classic Riot the last couple of years can't figure out a problem so instead you just kill it . I miss when Riot actually solved their problems instead.
Insane and amazing. Caedrel, a big k'sante hater, can tell the new kit is clunky from reading off the notes, which a lot of vocal k'sante mains agree on
If they were to animate last year, they would be animating, how a Korean team, with a mid who's the oldest player in competitive League (probably), beat the whole of LPL/China. Wonder who might get offended by this. Riot definitely missed the best opportunity to get a lot of views.
ngl a lot of chinese ppl r precisely offended by the fact that lpl teams that made it far last worlds did not show up. theyd PREFER to see the lpl teams being defeated by t1, rather than seeing a bunch of random LEC, LCK players that got kicked out in grp stage worlds 2023. lmfao
still not fixing ksante Q stack that still goes through when cc'ed during cast time, while yasuo and yone don't get Q stack when hit by a cc at the same time. I don't even play yasuo and yone but that is a massive inconsistency that makes it so hard to follow the state of the play when facing any of them.
2:01 it looks like Jatt ngl Also, while I do think the song is good and the animation as a whole is cool, I was really, *really* looking forward to seeing T1 vs the LPL as an animation, and I’m very sad we don’t get that
League players will find literally anything they can to complain about. Riot got one of the biggest bands in the world to do their song for worlds, and people are upset they wanted to show that off a little. Just get over it. Banger song and the video is great too.
I was so hyped when LP were announced for the Worlds song, and I really love what they came up with for the music. I liked the bits of the video with the LoL players, and I didn't have a big problem with the narrative of T1 defending the crown and Faker deciding to fight with his team. It seemed like a good narrative. But I wish they'd included more nods to last year, like Faker's injury, the gauntlet. If they'd reduced the LP appearances down, I think they could have done something amazing with this. I also wish they'd added a couple more recognisable players, especially from teams who made it really far last Worlds. Could've at least had Weibo in there
lil bro rushed the reddit posts at the speed of light avoiding the criticism posts ... is mr strimah grazing RIOT because of the fear of burning the bridge with them ? (meme)
I have a feeling that Caedrel has to say he likes the song no matter what, because his opinion could affect many. He can't really dig deep into the criticism of the MV, because he is a part of Riot
Good lord is every single member of caedrel's chat someone who thinks they're the funniest, wittiest person on the planet while they all spam the same shit?
In Asia, Linkin Park was never huge even w the Chester. So why do we have to have same perspective as the western ppl? Just like y’all liked it we can hate it too 😂
No wonder the west can't ever win worlds, not a single drop of passion in this game, oozing over Linkin Park, not seeing everything that is wrong with this video
hot take: I think part of the reason why faker is featured so little in the mv is because riot figured tht prob giving faker such a huge event such as the hall of legends is sufficient enough to celebrate faker's legacy and should be more than enough as faker's celebration for winning last worlds. That's why more emphasis is on other players and t1 members rather than him. Hence faker only being there at the end only "story" wise.
To me it sounds like they made Ksante slower but stronger. And when he goes all out, he needs to be a lot more precise. Better 1v1 maybe even 1v2er but weaker 1v5er? xdd
Linkin Park is hosting a concert inside the palace with expensive ticket prices and the tickets were sold out. As a result, Caps, an NA rookie, a random guy from Brazil and an army of Deft cosplayers all want to go in to watch LP without a ticket. However, the security team consisting of T1 members was there to only allow ticket holders into the concert hall. In the end the security team leader, Faker, comes out to deal with the mob himself.
Perfect, now it all makes sense.
Bin, chovy, caps, brance and massu
you mean deft, deft, deft and other defts?
This is my headcannon now
Stop saying Bin, that was Deft fr. Best narrative, now it makes sense in my head. I'm bad at recalling faces and now I'm going crazy recognizing Who's who.
"All faces lead to Deft"
- Riot animators
I didn't even know Yike was supposed to be Yike (or was that Hans Sama?) and Guma with the hoodie of Xayah almost missed him, but when he got pulled by Keria's Thresh chain then it made sense. That was definitely not Bin XD. Bin's hairstyle should have been captured at least, if not for BLG's flag/insignia, I would have thought it was Deft on the MV. 😅 My niece draws faces better that Rito's animators for sure.
@@offthegrid777 yike and hansama arent in the video..do you mean massu?
it's actually a funny phenomenon you discovered here: Studies have shown that people of differing ethnic backgrounds tend to focus on different parts of the face in making their identifications.
so for a westerner these asians look like Bin, or Faker or Oner...to an Asian they don't - because a westerner will primarily focus on mouth-chin, eyes and colour (hair, eyes) to identify a person, an asian will focus primarily on the eye-nose-cheek portion of the face because the hair and eye colour doesn't vary as much in their culture..quite interesting right?
@@johnkirk1772 wow that's interesting, do you have any links to articles that talk about this?
Riot is racist for that
😂😂😂
how do you make lpl and lck fans hate each other less? unite them with a mv they can both passionately hate
I haven't seen LPL and LCK this united in a while
@@jeehoonoh I think you meant MSI 2019
@ssw2093 I haven't seen MSI 2019 this united in a while
People are way too naive to think it's only T1 fans, or even only the Korean community.
The MV is laughed at and trashed by the LPL community on Hupu.
WBG and JDG wiped out of existence, unreasonably long screentime of Bin, no T1 vs LPL, everyone is Deft, god forbid even Bin didn't realise himself.
Ofc, they too respect Faker as well.
Because they are stupid people who say that t1 fans are the problem no matter what they say
It's people from different parts. Clearly the video was made with the intention of promoting Linkin Park and using League esports and the pros for it.
JDG wiped themselves out
Actually the complaints are not only from Korean fans, some Chinese fans are complaining too because Bin doesnt look like him. He himself said that it does not look like him, same with Keira. If players can't recognize the image that is supposed to be them then there is a problem.
Doesn't help that it cuts to lp while you're trying to discern the faces.
What I don't understand is they had the perfect opportunity for a "storyline mv trilogy" since last year's storyline could be seen as the culmination of both the storylines of RISE and Gods. You should be put in jail for throwing away this opportunity handed to you on a diamond platter as a director.
agree on the jail bit
T1 4th World Champhion after 7 years
WBG dark horse in the finals
JDG Golden Road attempt
T1 vs 4 LPL
T1 winning it in Korea
Nah all bad
Linkin Park comeback yeh thats it😂(Rito probably)
@@august_yuuka Yeah, years after Ambition's RISE vs Faker and after the devastating loss last year vs Deft too which is what I meant by that trilogy.
Cope harder buddy. This year's MV and Song are top notch.
@@VaMage no ones saying song is bad bro except to people who just dont like rock genre, the animation quality is good but you cant deny that the Asian players thats animated have a very small difference even Deft mistook Bin for himself, its not just one person either who say it many people say it
I understand that Riot wants a lot of regions to be represented, but its crazy that Massu and a random Cblol player got that much screentime while Ruler/TheShy have yet to get anything in any Worlds vid.
Caps also showed up when he went out in groups last year.... They should've just had the players and teams t1 faced on their way to the crown even if they were all lpl it would've been fine imo.
The only valid reason I could think of as why they gave them so much screentime is the schedule of this year's worlds.
Given that the schedule of matches is more convenient to the western population, I think they're trying to appeal more to those audience.
@@janthony5386and linkin park spitting in their faces is the approach?
@@4thwall826 Oh sorry, I was referring to Western player's increase in screentime.
With LPs screen time, maybe they just want to please LP's fans. I guess.
@@janthony5386well i was thinking in simillar direction, but maybe they though that return of linking park will have a lot more of clout
100 % agree that they should just make a video of the year before. Rise is amazing for that exact reason, as well as the nods it makes to past world champion teams too with the statues at the summit. And yeah, the singers feel so incredibly out of place in the MV.
I loved the song i really did, but i gotta agree about the animation story. They had perfect material from the previous worlds and they tossed it in the garbage. Also Imagine Dragons did a song for League Worlds too and they werent in the video at all so I dont know why people use that argument as well.
As much as I like the song, it does sound like something they already had and just decided to use it for league
Only a few players from teams
Only 2 out of 10 worlds songs were about previous worlds' stories, I don't get why people are suddenly so mad about it not being about the previous worlds. I personally enjoy the current year getting hyped much more.
As a sidenote, don't get the "perfect material" argument. Sure, it's a nice story but it's all T1 vs LPL and they want to include other regions.
Do you think Riot and LP had an agreement that LP should be in MV since they owned the song and Riot is asking permission to use it for Worlds?
riot had the easiest storyline and they fumbled
I'll say it again. They should've picked it up from the 2023 worlds MV where Deft cait snipes T1 off the platform (?). Then show T1's struggle throughout the year (Faker's injury, their summer struggle) until they lift the trophy again. They could've definitely still played with the theme of the crown being a heavy burden to bear for T1 and Faker.
The story was laid out for them and they fumbled
That would've been so good, picking up after the loss
looking through the countless song reactions online, most of them are relating the heavy is the crown towards LP's story. Like, what?? It is shown front and center that it is the WORLDS ANTHEM, and yet people are only looking at LP instead of League. this is the most infuriating thing seeing just talking about LP constantly
@@Endra88 well even just start from the beginning him winning multiple titles then not being able to win. And then losing in finals the prior year only to come back and win would work.
But I will say if they just only did from them losing the previous year after defts caitlyn shot would work pretty well too
@@aikentang Most likely given that Linkin Park is relatively mainstream, I think Riot was trying to cater to them and their fans.
Their mindset must be why bother trying to please the already existing die-hard fans of league and lol esports?
They probably want to target the fans of LP that doesn't play LOL.
Just because you know and care about the story doesn't mean that everyone who would watch the music video would know the same. Linkin park is nothing to snort about like riot's past song artists like newjeans and lilnasx and imagine dragons. They would obviously be demanding for their own feature in this video. Also the song is for the fucking music? Did everyone just forget that with a song you listen to the music and not sit there to jerk off to your favourite league player being featured in the video?
Honor faker? No. Milk faker? Yes.
I swear if riot didn't animated Linkin park and just focus on the player, people will enjoy the song more and there no complain at all except for fans who didn't like the song at first but every world song there will be fans like that but eventually they will like it
I don't see the problem in animating LP in the MV, just show them in the start or end and get over with it, the random cuts to LP really ruin the flow
Its fine if linkin park in the video but man they got more screen time than everyone
Also the rumors that flying around this song doesn't specifically write for world anthem but passing the crown from Chester to Emily in a sense this is LP song not even anthem it's crazy@@exoski4730
@@exoski4730 I agree with you, idk why they can't do it like how they did with imagine dragon enemy arcane video, I don't mind them at all.
Everyone loved Rise and Warriors from the get go. The songs that were most polarizing were Starwalking, Gods, and this years Heavy is the Crown
1. Faker's crown falls to the ground after being hit by an arrow fired by Ruler.
2. Faker loses balance and fall into the darkness.
3. Several players appear together on the stairs above the battlefield, where T1's players are fighting.
4. They won the fight, and Faker sits on the throne while wearing the crown.
5. Vibration is heard, and many players flock with the flags of several teams.
6. Faker slowly walks into the battlefield with his team mates as he stands up with a azir's staff. Ends by zooming in on the backside of them.
Riot, is this hard?
Bro, u r better than the riot animators. Actually, that scene is really cool.
This is definitely based on a good MV. On top of this, having players on CAPS, DEFT, etc. stopping GOAT from trying to crown would have been really nice to see.

i think the linkin park animation is fine but it rly felt like a music video instead of a worlds anthem. also, it's kinda sus that they have a lot of screentime, maybe they paid for most of the animation budget instead of riot?
Maybe LP saw what Riot did with Enemy MV and was like, we want that! hahaha But come one man, this is for Worlds Anthem.
Can't they have done another song for Arcane and have their faces plastered throughout the MV on that one?
And their animation better than the play itself just adding the salt to the wound
it IS a linkin park music video!!! People dont understand ... last year it was a riot song that FEATURED a kpop band thats now irrelevant.
This is a LINKIN PARK SONG, not a RIOT song. This is linkin parks song that riot used.
@@JgHaverty absolutely braindead and garbage take
The amount of cope to say it's just T1 fans. It's lack of consideration for players after so many bangers in the past is clear. The music is definitely in my ballpark, it's the stuff from my high school days, another generic LP song, but I'm watching Worlds for the story of these players, the live performances are OK, but it's never the reason I'm watching worlds. T1 can always make it in this video since they are the reigning champs, so they could have not made worlds and still be in the video, but what about the players from the other regions, who directed this shxt. It feels so disrespectful especially when you compare it to old worlds mvs.
Lp sucks now not the same. Even shinodas rap sucks. No Chester. Also the video sucks straight up. Could have made an insane storyline video but no. Like last worlds was so hype and they used none of it
its just classic hater logic "hate the song/mv = must be a dumbass t1 fan lol" absolute braindead when they managed to offend entire Korea and China league fanbases

I think my major issue with all this is that people think its T1 fans complaining about this MV - but i am with Caedrel on this - its not just T1 fans - i am sure every single league player who follows league content would have a problem with this MV.
Quit making this about T1 fans being crybabies - its really not like that - its the whole league community who has an issue with this MV (as they should).
PS: I love the song. I think its amazing - ive been listening to it on repeat since last night 😆
Disagree, league players are crying for nothing: literally best MV since take over.
Of course there are valid criticism like chovy looking like Deft and a little bit too much of LP screentime, but it's not enough to make it deserve so much hatred.
That negativity mostly comes from koreans, the rest of the World followed because in League, koreans are always "right".
EDIT : to clarify, I disagree with the words OP wrote in parenthesis at the end : "as they should".

Of course people hated it. It’s the Starwalking MV but ten times worse. A song that’s clearly meant for the artist and then they get inserted into it but even longer.

ITS THEIR SONG YOU 1DIOT
swear to god I have never said bad things on this years worlds song and mv,
but holy shit the mv w/o Linkin Park makes it like 10 times better with the atmosphere, vibe. it just hits way harder.
For me it's like 100 times better. This is Worlds song for League fan, while official is for Linkin park fan
It is 10 times better but still crap , thats how bad it is , just a random battle royale , not showing Jdg or wbg or the climbing of T1 , the revenge against ruler , the comeback of the goat , like many stuff to do , great narrative and its just a random battle royale with the only T1 , Chovy , bin cosplaying deft and caps as iconic players , although G2 didnt even make to playoffs
It is just new pentakill skin.
it is just like how Pedro usually pause when ads hit to not ruin the immersion. LP jump cut cameo is like the ads that are ruining the immersion of League
It’s not just T1 fans or Koreans that dislike the video. I’m neither and HATE what they did in the video.
WORLDS ANTHEM should be for the PLAYERS, not for a LP to promote their new singer 💀 its an INTERNATIONAL TOURNAMENT and they know it, they're using League's GLOBAL fanbase as a launch pad and it shows. People keep saying it's T1 fans when its THE PLAYER BASE 🤡
Holy even ambition
I'm not a T1 fan but when the title of the anthem is "Heavy is The Crown", then everyone sort of expects how Faker and T1 came back from their bad performances in 2023 LCK summer to becoming the only LCK remaining in the best of four, and how they won the worlds in the home soil- moreover it's Faker's 4th win after 7 years. They should focus on this narrative then featuring worthless LP. Also there were so many mistakes in the video- Oner didn't play Viego and Keria didn't play Nautilus during the entirety of last year's worlds. Also people couldn't recognize who Bin and Chovy were in the video. My suspicion is that Riot paid LP way more than what they had. Then they chose a creator of the video who was willing to do the job with much less pay and this crap is what we get. Complete disaster.
"worthless LP" hahahhah surelyyyy not a t1 fan and lck enjoyer right? go look at EVERYTHING riot did for faker/t1 alone in 2024. go on since u clearly have a goldfish memory. go check.
the only thing thats true about the animation is how they mostly look like deft but well.....
I don't even give a shift whether it is about t1 or not. Hype up the league and the world's is what the trailer is suppose to do but we got this garbage.

Enemy is not a worlds song. There's a billboard in Star Walkin that advertises Lil Nas X, I think that's the closest thing to a precedent here. In my opinion the band's time to shine is the finals opening ceremony, not the video for the worlds song.
then riot should write their own songs and not borrow a band with 150 million record sales to borrow their song.

Thank you editor for putting the chat in!
The amount of people who don't understand why the MV is being criticised and blaming T1 fans is ridiculous. The song is supposed to celebrate the winners and hype up Worlds. It's not supposed to be an LP MV. Korean fans are upset because of this. No one is saying the song sucks (maybe some but a small minority).
I remember when T1 defeated all 4 seeds from the Linkin Park League to win the Worlds.
In my opinion, this year's MV should have been in a 2 times period
1 where they tell the story of worlds 2023, with the LPL vs T1 storyline, Ruler Scout TheShy all of the classic and maybe show BLG (with bin) defeated to later on show em as the first seed of LPL and a real threat to the LCK / Worlds 2024 trophy
2 what they put in the actual MV (minus certain things and maybe a better representation of the asian players, Guma on Varus and Keria on Bard)
They could have done something better with more meaning, if they removed the linkin park self insert into the mv with all the screen time they add maybe put more instrumental for the beginning to make story telling easier
Last year New Jeans weren't in their MV despite them being a kpop group, they are known to love brand deals and earning money through ads and making themselves visible yet they didn't and we had a really good MV (the music was really good in my opinion, better than this one)
They have to milk and depict T1 as the final boss who are unstoppable. Instead of showing what makes a sport player truly great, like no matter how many times an athlete gets defeated, they always comeback in greater forms to achieve their titles and we can see this from Faker, that's what makes him the GOAT.
But it will appeal to mindless T1 fans and generate more money, positive reviews if they just illustrates T1 was already great and perfect from the get go and everyone else is always just mere challengers that never got close to T1 nor they never defeated them.
Heavy is the Rat
xdd
The thing with the musiv video is when you have a band like LP that's been around for years and only done traditional music videos (showing the band in the video) while also trying to debut a new vocalist it's on par with what I expected. As for it being a good Worlds MV, I feel it could be better. Song goes hard though
LPL and LCK fans united because of this MV. Riot should fire whoever in charged
Surprised for the uneven storytelling to LPL either. Never expected finalists and JDG have their time that low. Rabbit jerks off longer than that
imagine ruler and theshy didnt make it to the 24MV and their performance last year, and they include some random players lmao and particularly LP lmfao
Pog a second Worlds MV dropped xdd
I think the slow mode feels jarring mainly due to low frame rate, if those shot didn't just get slow down but also got interpolation with ai or some shit, it would look way better.
Keep the music - I love LP and this is a BANGER
Keep the animation - it's fluid, extremely well done.
Fix the faces - had a bit of trouble recognizing Chovy and at the start Bin did look like Deft.
And....
Finally, overhaul the story of the video. The current video just tells us how difficult it is to defend a crown - that's it, like nothing cool happened last year.
Riot completely missed out on the perfect opportunity to tell a story of how T1 overcame their problems in LCK (eg. losing lots of games, Faker getting injured and had to be subbed out, Faker rejoining the starting lineup and reignites T1) which I think is why many LCK fans were losing it.
You can even include JDG in it, would've been cool to see them since they had an allstar lineup and were on a rampage last year before they got stopped by T1
then lastly, include LNG and WBG - just show them getting stomped or something lol.
Ok stop it, Rito sign me up - I can work remotely!
Thank you Caedrel with the video today
Since a lot of people don’t know why there’s no JDG or Weibo in the MV.
The animation are taken place in 2024 which is after T1 won worlds. Cause if you pause at 1:04 in World’s music video you can see kkoma with T1 and he only came back to T1 this year. This is the reason why you only see Chovy, Bin, Caps in this video which is this year powerhouse region and JDG/ruler are no where in sight.
Please like so more people can see and understand the events in the MV. Yes I don’t like this year Worlds MV as well.
“5th trophy is for a better music video”
Also it is not only T1 fan complaining, most of Korean fans and a lot of Chinese fan are complaining about too much LP screen time and player’s character design
Riot wrote title as an anthem of 2024 Worlds. But video seems to be more like LP's MV. If they put more players than LP, it might looks like challenging to defending Champs.
The Playins teaser makes PSG look like the final boss of Playins
its so funny how all the characters looks like deft
Even Deft commented why he was there- I feel so much for Bin..😢
Too me it seems that there ambition was to put in characters that finished first instead of 100 percent guessing. So to actually do animation work while waiting for results they put in the band to fill in time because this time they didint have alot of time to animate the winners of each region. So they animated all t1 portions and band portions then put the rest in as they won. Probably wouldint have been possible without the padding.
But then that doesn't explain why brance from red canids is in the video because they aren't even in worlds and why chovy is in the video instead of zeka
My bet is that the teams in the video were the main protagonit of msi, we got g2 with the upset on top, blg second place, geng winning it, flyquest the lcs revelation with the rookie etc
T1 aside, if they weren't going to make this video about T1's rise, THEY COULD HAVE AT LEAST MADE IT ABOUT ANYTHING OTHER THAN NOTHING
the issue is that T1 got 4th place and barely even made it to worlds.

I feel like Rise has just broken everyone's expectations for what the Worlds mv should be. Before Rise, the Worlds video was never about telling the story about specific players. If the music videos for Legends Never Die, or even Phoenix or Take Over were released today, everyone would hate them.
Damn, you are right
lmao you realize that RISE came before Phoenix and Take Over right? Phoenix in particular is well liked because it showed marquee players and what theyre going through while showing stuff from their past. Legends never Die wasnt about any particular player, same with Warriors. But at least they're relevant. Actual League champions going through hardship just like PRO players. Highlighting similarities. its a different but acceptable take. Warriors was a shoutout to the fans playing the game. They told a story, and focused on what's important. Even Ignite for how eh the beats are in that song, people still rewatch because they pay homage to popular plays. They are relevant. Why is Worlds Collide not popular despite being a good song? Well the MV sucks, it told no story, put out no hype.
Did you even watch the Gods and the whole season and the Worlds last year? not just the highlights of the game.
@@NousagiBrat I know they came out after Rise lol. I was just naming MVs that I think the community would hate it came out now. And what you mean? Phoenix just showed footage of 3 players sitting down or in a train and shit. They had no story about how an LPL team finally won Worlds, just Rookie standing here, and then cuts to Lissandra. Do you honestly believe the community today would be happy with that?
Take Over and Legends Never Die also did not tell the stories of specific players. Legends Never Die focused more on the actual league champs and Take Over had a random OC fight people from the distant past. Could you imagine if they did that today? Everyone would complain about how it's a disgrace to the players who won the previous year and the lack of a narrative.

Isn't this Caedrel 1:40 in a parallel universe where he didn't cancelled Malzahar's ult and still a pro player?
100%
BROO SRSLY. i hated the last parts. its the damn climax and they keep flashing the band which really is anti climatic. it was as if telling its about them and not the Worlds. also, i thought these World Anthem videos were kind of tribute to the last worlds? what changed this year? was i wrong? it seemed like it to me
Yes because the rumors that run around this song wasn't even write for worlds specifically but for passing the baton of LP singer and the rumors also make sense if you know a little bit about the current LP
So now K'Sante's W is the easiest ability to avoid in the game even in all out. He can't follow you over walls, so if you have one dash, you can just escape his All Out. He's also way slower, so you don't even need to dash-you can just walk away. A 40% win rate in all ranks right now seems pretty representative of all these garbage changes. Idk what they are smoking but the problem isn't the dashes but the damage beeing flat while he is on his R and act like an assassin and not like a Bruiser. They just want him to be dead i guess . Classic Riot the last couple of years can't figure out a problem so instead you just kill it . I miss when Riot actually solved their problems instead.
Insane and amazing. Caedrel, a big k'sante hater, can tell the new kit is clunky from reading off the notes, which a lot of vocal k'sante mains agree on
If they were to animate last year, they would be animating, how a Korean team, with a mid who's the oldest player in competitive League (probably), beat the whole of LPL/China.
Wonder who might get offended by this.
Riot definitely missed the best opportunity to get a lot of views.
ngl a lot of chinese ppl r precisely offended by the fact that lpl teams that made it far last worlds did not show up. theyd PREFER to see the lpl teams being defeated by t1, rather than seeing a bunch of random LEC, LCK players that got kicked out in grp stage worlds 2023. lmfao
song 8/10
video 0/10
Worlds song is fine. LP is good but the MV is trash
still not fixing ksante Q stack that still goes through when cc'ed during cast time, while yasuo and yone don't get Q stack when hit by a cc at the same time. I don't even play yasuo and yone but that is a massive inconsistency that makes it so hard to follow the state of the play when facing any of them.
now we can see peak league being played in 14.18 and play a different game in 14.19 XD
If this isn't record for longest patch page it must be second.

PHIL MY GOAT LETS GOOOOOO
I cant lie if i ever got to the point this was my reaction to a league worlds hype video I would quit playing.
2:01 it looks like Jatt ngl
Also, while I do think the song is good and the animation as a whole is cool, I was really, *really* looking forward to seeing T1 vs the LPL as an animation, and I’m very sad we don’t get that
Riot really cave in to the money this year huh
Wait it’s better now
League players will find literally anything they can to complain about. Riot got one of the biggest bands in the world to do their song for worlds, and people are upset they wanted to show that off a little. Just get over it. Banger song and the video is great too.
It's worlds championship not linkin park concert
So you agree that all asians look like deft? That is a new way to say your rascist
Whos the player thats cosplaying Zeri vs Oner Viego???
Deft
I was so hyped when LP were announced for the Worlds song, and I really love what they came up with for the music. I liked the bits of the video with the LoL players, and I didn't have a big problem with the narrative of T1 defending the crown and Faker deciding to fight with his team. It seemed like a good narrative. But I wish they'd included more nods to last year, like Faker's injury, the gauntlet. If they'd reduced the LP appearances down, I think they could have done something amazing with this. I also wish they'd added a couple more recognisable players, especially from teams who made it really far last Worlds. Could've at least had Weibo in there
It feels like RIOT are trying so hard to promote LinkinPark new album
as a chinese person with korean fans I can confirm we are malding
lil bro rushed the reddit posts at the speed of light avoiding the criticism posts ... is mr strimah grazing RIOT because of the fear of burning the bridge with them ? (meme)
I have a feeling that Caedrel has to say he likes the song no matter what, because his opinion could affect many. He can't really dig deep into the criticism of the MV, because he is a part of Riot
I think he probably didn't agree with the criticism 100% so it's fine if he wants to speed through it
@@duongle1606I mean the song itself is ok. Only the MV is trash
@@duongle1606he is not
He's the corporate slave of them. Slaves cant criticize their masters.
Nice we got chat
노래는 계속 들어보니 좀 익숙해졌는데 뮤비는 볼수록 화가 나서 짜증난다
get mad then kiddo
@@JgHaverty lp fandaddy detected
Did our Rat got payed from riot to not look at redit on stream today
GET OUT OF OUR MV LP
IT IS NOT YOUR CROWN
Heavy is the crown would’ve been crazier if T1 didn’t make worlds
Gumayusi cheeks is OP
The MV and song is peak, people are absolutely delusional.
I totally agree.
Koreans' collective madness
@@affetto_5474 double lift was Korean? I didnt know that lmao
Random theory: Maybe Riot tried to milk LP comeback considering the game and the fanbase age.
Good lord is every single member of caedrel's chat someone who thinks they're the funniest, wittiest person on the planet while they all spam the same shit?
In the end its still supposed to be a song. I don't understand why people even care that much about a mv
The 2023 Worlds Winner is Linkin Park!!!
In Asia, Linkin Park was never huge even w the Chester. So why do we have to have same perspective as the western ppl? Just like y’all liked it we can hate it too 😂
worlds song is peak, music video couldve focused more on T1 and others rather then the band so much tho
Just image LPL team surrounding Faker and his team
No wonder the west can't ever win worlds, not a single drop of passion in this game, oozing over Linkin Park, not seeing everything that is wrong with this video
hot take:
I think part of the reason why faker is featured so little in the mv is because riot figured tht prob giving faker such a huge event such as the hall of legends is sufficient enough to celebrate faker's legacy and should be more than enough as faker's celebration for winning last worlds. That's why more emphasis is on other players and t1 members rather than him. Hence faker only being there at the end only "story" wise.
To me it sounds like they made Ksante slower but stronger. And when he goes all out, he needs to be a lot more precise. Better 1v1 maybe even 1v2er but weaker 1v5er? xdd
I put ksante in most picked category in pickems am i in trouble now?
Worlds is played on 14.18 so the 14.19 changes won't affect the tournament.
