@@michaelmccoy1794 and unlike their other games, you cant make fighters beginner friendly. tft and valorant have a lotta people playing that dont care about auto chess or fps games simply because its riot IP, but if you cant make the game easy enough to coast without learning, you end up with legends of runeterra, at least the expectations of card game players were low and not over hyped for 4 years
I loved Street Fighter x Tekken for the 2v2 duos. It was awesome to go online with a buddy co-op in a fighting game. I wish more fighting games would use this feature.
I mean, Brawlhalla has a very serious 2v2 competitive scene that is just as big, if not bigger, than singles. Though I understand you more meant traditional fighters, not platform fighters.
League players jumping into this are going to freak out since they can’t blame their losses on someone else this time around. Update: Looks like there is a 2v2 option. *Curb your Enthusiasm theme plays*
I love how deep the combat looks. But my initial thought watching this was "wow Darius just looks so good!" The art for him is crazy and his moves match his style so well!
@@Natoursofcourse His scrowl from the splash art is not really lore accurate. Darius isn't some mindless brute who charges at his enemies mindlessly but an intelligent and calculated general.
The way Darius looks in this is just so great. He easily looks like one of the first characters I wanna try out until we know more of the characters. The other two look fantastic too.
I'm kinda shocked. I thought we were a LOOOOOONG ways off from this. But it sounds like, by inviting people out and having it at EVO, it's actually a lot closer than I ever thought.
So in fairness, it looks like they only got to play the characters that are mostly already done that we've known about for awhile. Ekko, Jynx, Darius, Ahri. I don't even think we got Illoai yet. It looks like they're taking a very vertical approach with the game, getting a small handful of characters to a basically finished state fairly quickly so that they can do stuff like this earlier than an in development game normally would be able to. Good marketing and great for us, but I wouldn't jump to any conclusions on how soon the game is coming out.
I mean, this still looks like a pretty early preview. Yeah, it might not be super far off but may still be like a year away? We don't know much of anything about the roster and that's something you'd think we'd start hearing more about if it was really close.
Looong time ago ordinary people like me used to code their own fighting games using M.U.G.E.N engine.. I imagine it must be SO MUCH easier with the current technology.. Oh man its gonna be even easier with the assist of AI.. Its beautiful
With this going to be F2P, it makes sense to have an MVP (minimum viable product) like this. They can launch with like 8-12 characters and probably be okay with it since we expect the game to be supported for years to come (as is with other main Riot games) with more characters, more stages, costumes, and modes. This is in contrast with other AAA fighting games where you have to make it worth the $60-70 price point upon entry in terms of content and characters. Project L's model doesn't need that. It could maybe have a non-competitive PvE/story/arcade mode in the future for more casual players but not get pressured to release said mode at launch.
@@MixTwentyOnenot necessarily, Darius Sett Riven is a lot of Noxus reps. Samira is another Noxus rep which would honestly make a more interesting kit, and she’s the main character of soul fighters. Eventually I’d expect all of them tho
One thing about Riot Games, their animation/art crew is always top-notch. I'm really happy to see Ahri's League moves have adapted well to a 2D fighter... Really looking forward to grouping up with a buddy and tackling online as a duo.
I know not a lot of many people liked or played blazblue cross tag battle but a lot of these tag mechanics Max describes are pretty similar. Like swapping to your assist while theyre out and especially the sandwiching of your point character and assist. That game was pretty whatever but I thought the tag mechanics were super solid so its great to see it referenced and expanded upon in other games.
I only ever disliked how it feels like they forced the autocombo mechanic, if we had gotten a BBTAG that played like Central Fiction, It would be my favorite game ever, but they simplified characters too much to make the "fit in" on a uniform roster. I especially hate what they did to Nine, fucking insane gimmick character with all the gimmicks removed.
Was thinking it was more or less the same from what we knew outside of the new parry but you blew my mind with a groove system ontop of all of this is insane. The idea of double handshake pressure against using burst, push block, reverse push block with essentially KoF jumping, dashing and running movement has me giddy.
This is the first time I've been able to actually understand the mechanics of a fighting game. You're really good at explaining things Max. I was already excited for Project L, since I love League and Fighting games, but I'm even more so now.
I like how the game is designed partially for newcomers but I feel this game would make people SO angry with the mechanics shown so far, new players are not going to have fun being mixed to shit for 5 mins straight
True! Im a casual league of legends and Fighting games player. Im not good in neither. But this looks way more complex than a SF game. I kinda like anime fighters, I had tons of fun playing abyss mode in Blazblue and M.O.M mode in GG rev2. I hope noobs like me can still have fun! Especially that it can be 2v2 now.
They won't. There's gonna be so many new players there will be whole swaths of iron and bronzies poking each other to death with the occasional raw super thrown in
I wonder of the surprise dev at EVO for the Friday showcase is still Riot or not since they revealed all this stuff today. Last night's stream I thought Max hinted Project L would be present at EVO, which did get confirmed. Though who could the surprise dev be?
This is so sick. I love League and playing fighting games. I was hoping to see more than Darius and Ekko but just seeing and hearing about the mechanics is fucking HYPE. Specially the 2 player vs 1 or 2 player is an insanely awesome idea!
@@JuanFranco-mq7jsi can totally see it, make his League's W like a parry move in Prohect L, give him blinks and TP mechanics that allows high speed combos
I know max hasnt played alot of it, but the tag mechanics sound more akin to Bbtag, where you have the three different assist 4,5,6 assist (4 being anitair, 5 combo filler, 6 being projectile) the ability to switch when the tag character is on screen, and cross tagging where you control both characters on screen and can swap back and forth between them. Push blocking costing a bar is also used in bbtag as well as the ability to use your assist as the combo breaker. Id say the three games to get used to this style imo: Bbtag, MVCI, and a toss between GBFV, or DNF just for using specials.
@@Sparda51 I didn’t say who did it fist, I was pointing out other games that used the majority the mechanics in one game rather than swapping between multiple. I also put MVCI as a game to play.
@Sparda51 infinites combo breaker assists were different in that they were literally a full tag in, the person getting combod doesn't get tagged out cause you have to actually save them. Bbtags combo breaker was more like a burst like in this game.
@@AceLeader101 sure but I personally didn’t like how bbtag played and hope it plays more like mvci and battle for the grid because those games were fun.
Thanks for the update! While a simplified moveset is disappointing for me, I get it. Also having never played League and remembering your video checking out all the heroes currently available, there's massive potential for this roster. Glad to hear it feels good. Definitely gonna check this out!
1:20 into the video and I am already so so excited. I've already commented on a lot of your casual fighting game oriented videos about how I wish tag games let you tag with another player not just character like in MK9. It's super fun to be able to play with someone who isn't the best at Fighters so they don't get discouraged from getting their ass beat all the time.
I am loving how this game looks so far. The tag-team approach I think does so much more for League than a 1v1 like SF or MK, and the obvious comparison to ArcSys and DBFZ helps because of the stuff that they can pull of because of that less grounded and more nutty/flashy approach to combos and specials. Absolutely cannot wait for any and all news on this.
Stellar video! I'm super excited and agree that adding more low risk low reward options so that it feels less like "roll or be rolled" would be healthier for the game. What I'd love to also see for this (likely to be) masterpiece would be a tutorial like what Skullgirls did.
Very excited to see where this game goes. I'm relatively new to fighting games and your channel has been my home base for learning and enjoying them. I play league, I play valorant, I enjoy the league IP so this is gonna be very hype. I will say, as someone newer to fighting games, the visual clarity worries me a little bit. I've only really played GGST and SF6 so far and both of those games feel simple enough that I can always tell what's happening even if a character does a lot of weird stuff. with this one, it's looking a bit hard to read. there's like one two many things happening at the same time, one too many things on screen at once. Here's hoping they iron everything out well though. I have a lot of faith in Riot Devs, even have a couple friends that work there as programmers
As someone who's only REALLY got into more traditional fighting games within the past year or two, this looks absolutely insane and i cannot wait until we learn more and get to try it out for ourselves.
Max out here talking about how Project L shares all of these game mechanics with different games and i'm just like "Yep, sounds exactly like Blazblue"(with the exclusion of the parry mechanic of course)
I really hope they don't tone it down. The more intricate and in depth these systems are the more people will stick with them and also the more entertaining they'll be to watch as a spectator
they most definitely will tone them down. I am guessing by a lot too. The premise and marketing of the Project L was a low skill floor for non fighting game fans. Initially, at the very least. If they stick to that, then they will tone it down. Right now, speaking as someone very new to fgc, this is all too much.
All the characters i want in this game are Sett, Aatrox (especially aatrox but any darkin is fine), and the character i want the most is sylas. just imagine sylas combos with his chains and magic. He also has a lot of potential. They could make him into anything from a rushdown char to a shoto. All i want though are cool combos with his e. Pulling yourself towards someone to punch them in the face and continue your combo is such an awesome thing
im waiting for this game patiently! i love the league universe n just the thought of being able to main one of my fav characters in a fighting game is great
@@yoaiouI know your arent talking about cheeto finger dudes when fighting game players are literally more disgusting, trust me I’ve been to tournaments to watch. So many faces of League are literal gym rats like Tyler1 or Dantes, cope harder though
The fuse that puts both partners on the screen at the same time is gonna be nuts when 2 people are controlling each character. Literally building the famous wombo combo hype.
This game looks amazing!!! I’m beyond excited for more of the roster reveal too cuz League has some pretty awesome characters like Sett, Akali, Vi, etc.
A FREE 2D FIGHTER GAME WITH A CEL-SHADED ARTSTYLE? OH HELL YEAH!! Shame I can't play it when it comes no matter how I would really want to. This is coming from a guy with a Potato PC.
I love fighting games and some of my friends are really into league and they were interested in the thought of Project L because at first it was sound like it would be a title non-fighting game people could hopefully easily jump into but now looking at it it's got very MVCI levels of craziness in the screen so I don't think they're going to hop on
the devs of Project L already stated that they are making a game easy to learn hard to master so anyone will be able to hop in and play it, mastering the mechanics will be the complicated part
@@symphonixblades That's the thing though, based off what what we're seeing it's already not an easy game to learn. Just because there's not fireball and DP inputs doesn't mean this game is simple. Smash bros is easy to learn, Granblue is super easy to learn. This game is already starting out with more mechanics and complexity than power rangers and Dragonball fighters which all 4 of those I'd say are some of the most easily approachable games to jump into
I’m really interested to see major league tournament play of this game. This could be huge and probably one of the most entertaining fighting games to watch of all time.
Finally another fighting game that have 2v2 mode. Looks promising, i can see they make it some tournament mode like what SF x tekken did. Look pretty fun tbh, its been long time since SF x tekken and we need more fighting game actually do team battle. Multiversus also tried it but game died sadly.
Hey this is fantastic Max. Brilliant man for getting Information out about this Game, been waiting absolutely Years hehe. I think it's a good move going with a Tagged Style rather than just One vs One Style, although I do prefer One on One and I am Bad at Tagged Games lol but Ultimately I think this was a Smart Move Overall. I cannot wait too see more on this Game at Evo.
"Devs want to make a great game first before it can be an eSport" is the best thing I could have heard.
Yes! Louder for the people in the back.
That is very rare to hear for a company like Riot but makes me so excited.
@@VideoGamePunda the twins have made a fighting game back then for free and it was a blast and great so they'll do the same for this game but with a bigger team.

Bruh have you seen the amount of salt in fighting games?
there’s a system where you can queue up with another person to play as ur 2nd char so you could technically blame ur duo
That's where you are wrong, kiddo
Of course we can, the oponent
FGC also blames their losses on bad balance and lag, so it’s no different. They always have an excuse.
I love how deep the combat looks. But my initial thought watching this was "wow Darius just looks so good!" The art for him is crazy and his moves match his style so well!
My only complaint about Darius is that in his intro his face looks kinda scrungly. He needs that iconic scowl from his splashart.
@@Natoursofcourse yea I actually made that comment before seeing his intro but I def agree lol

This game is already looking great. Hopefully they work on making wake-ups pretty okay, but otherwise it sounds like you had a great time with it Max!
Very excited to see where this game goes. I'm relatively new to fighting games and your channel has been my home base for learning and enjoying them. I play league, I play valorant, I enjoy the league IP so this is gonna be very hype.
I will say, as someone newer to fighting games, the visual clarity worries me a little bit. I've only really played GGST and SF6 so far and both of those games feel simple enough that I can always tell what's happening even if a character does a lot of weird stuff. with this one, it's looking a bit hard to read. there's like one two many things happening at the same time, one too many things on screen at once.
Here's hoping they iron everything out well though. I have a lot of faith in Riot Devs, even have a couple friends that work there as programmers
As someone who's only REALLY got into more traditional fighting games within the past year or two, this looks absolutely insane and i cannot wait until we learn more and get to try it out for ourselves.
Im loving this art style. I hope we get a proper name at evo
Max out here talking about how Project L shares all of these game mechanics with different games and i'm just like "Yep, sounds exactly like Blazblue"(with the exclusion of the parry mechanic of course)
Thanks for the preview dude, the game looks beautiful and there seems to be a lot of potential for a great game when it eventually comes out.
like league of legends, Riot found a way to blame your teammate
I'm so ready to see Max play with Gorlok already.
We need to spread the Gorlak meme so Riot can make it into a reality
I really hope they don't tone it down. The more intricate and in depth these systems are the more people will stick with them and also the more entertaining they'll be to watch as a spectator
they most definitely will tone them down. I am guessing by a lot too. The premise and marketing of the Project L was a low skill floor for non fighting game fans. Initially, at the very least. If they stick to that, then they will tone it down. Right now, speaking as someone very new to fgc, this is all too much.
Great content man, i'm on the hype train for this one!
This is probably going to bring me back to fighting games ngl. I like the aspect of duos
God Project L looks hella fun. Can't wait for this.
2027 lul
All the characters i want in this game are Sett, Aatrox (especially aatrox but any darkin is fine), and the character i want the most is sylas. just imagine sylas combos with his chains and magic. He also has a lot of potential. They could make him into anything from a rushdown char to a shoto. All i want though are cool combos with his e. Pulling yourself towards someone to punch them in the face and continue your combo is such an awesome thing
True! LoL has so many great champions that could be turned into sick fighting games characters.
Idk, his iconic move is Hijack. Idk how you can make that work without completely breaking it in this type of game.
@@2xYuWi mean you can do hijack as lvl 1 install super ... That copies your opponent's lvl 2 super.....
im waiting for this game patiently! i love the league universe n just the thought of being able to main one of my fav characters in a fighting game is great
I don't know anything about fighting games, but once this guy referenced a POWER RANGER GAME, I knew, I'm listening to a expert speak LOL
We’re truly in the golden age of fighting games.
Because of League? Lol Project L ain't gonna do nothing. Keep that franchise for the cheeto finger dudes
@@yoaiou will prob be the biggest fighting game but ok
@@yoaiou🤡
@@yoaiouI know your arent talking about cheeto finger dudes when fighting game players are literally more disgusting, trust me I’ve been to tournaments to watch. So many faces of League are literal gym rats like Tyler1 or Dantes, cope harder though
I hope for a brand new Darkstalkers game, as well as Bloody Roar return.
DUDE! The art style of this game is crazy! It looks so good.
Yoooooo! The duos thing I dig. It's also one of the things I miss about Tekken Tag Tournament and Dead or Alive.
I’m glad there’s a lot of time being put into it but man I gotta prep so my future grandkids will be ready when it finally releases
Me reading the title...
Me: YOU WHAT?!
they added 4 player mode so league players can still blame the team even in a fighting game
I'm so curious who the next characters for the base roster are going to be. CAN'T WAIT TO FIND OUT!!!
I love how Ahri's animation at 14:23 looks like her attack on A New Dawn cinematic
Being a LoL player and a fighting games fan is keeping me so HYPE
called project l, yet it looks like a w
Fr fr 😂
The fuse that puts both partners on the screen at the same time is gonna be nuts when 2 people are controlling each character. Literally building the famous wombo combo hype.
This is exciting! Thanks for sharing your experience! The game has a lot of promise!
I want to play this so bad
Same brooo looks so sick!!
Play it then 😂
@@lifedeather it’s not out yet
Game is looking good. Can't wait to finally play it.
I'll surelly be a Jinx and Ekko main.
I would hate playing against Jinx now that I've seen what she's been through.
He used to have a crush on her until she started talking to her gun
I'm just waiting for Jhin. Imagine they give him and only him a 4 meter super
This game looks amazing!!! I’m beyond excited for more of the roster reveal too cuz League has some pretty awesome characters like Sett, Akali, Vi, etc.
THAT INTRO ROCKS!!!! Love the art!
It looks a lot better than what we saw earlier but I feel like some of the effects are still messy. I hope they look cleaner on beta
Yes I think it’s the art style of the effects they don’t match with the character and environment artstyle.
The game is like 3% done
i honestly dont mind the game i just hate the health bars
@@burds_do_fly7660they've been at it since 2019
@@stefanmarinkovic1229and I hope they keep taking their time
A FREE 2D FIGHTER GAME WITH A CEL-SHADED ARTSTYLE? OH HELL YEAH!!
Shame I can't play it when it comes no matter how I would really want to. This is coming from a guy with a Potato PC.
This game looks like a dream come true. Complex and fun asf, dawg i think i fell in love.
Thanks Max! This looks so dope!
I love fighting games and some of my friends are really into league and they were interested in the thought of Project L because at first it was sound like it would be a title non-fighting game people could hopefully easily jump into but now looking at it it's got very MVCI levels of craziness in the screen so I don't think they're going to hop on
the devs of Project L already stated that they are making a game easy to learn hard to master so anyone will be able to hop in and play it, mastering the mechanics will be the complicated part
@@symphonixblades That's the thing though, based off what what we're seeing it's already not an easy game to learn. Just because there's not fireball and DP inputs doesn't mean this game is simple. Smash bros is easy to learn, Granblue is super easy to learn. This game is already starting out with more mechanics and complexity than power rangers and Dragonball fighters which all 4 of those I'd say are some of the most easily approachable games to jump into
@@symphonixblades Everybody says that.
I’m really interested to see major league tournament play of this game. This could be huge and probably one of the most entertaining fighting games to watch of all time.
Wow the art style is actually so much more comic-y.
Real nice.
I can't wait for this game! I can't remember the last time I was this excited for a fighting game.
This game could go wrong in so many ways.
It already did they fucking called it project L
@@Baltic_Dudethat's obviously not the name of the game
@@Baltic_Dude 21 comments of just straight up hating, play the game first bozo
Finally another fighting game that have 2v2 mode. Looks promising, i can see they make it some tournament mode like what SF x tekken did.
Look pretty fun tbh, its been long time since SF x tekken and we need more fighting game actually do team battle. Multiversus also tried it but game died sadly.
Fighting games are perfecting the cell shading look, this is looks awesome
Hey this is fantastic Max.
Brilliant man for getting Information out about this Game, been waiting absolutely Years hehe.
I think it's a good move going with a Tagged Style rather than just One vs One Style, although I do prefer One on One and I am Bad at Tagged Games lol but Ultimately I think this was a Smart Move Overall.
I cannot wait too see more on this Game at Evo.
