@@darthvadeth6290 So are African characters not allowed to exist at all, for fear of it being... "woke"? There's a whole region dedicated to Asian characters, culture and aesthetics, is that also "woke"? Answer carefully.
@@darthvadeth6290 The problem is what exactly? I'm confused on what you are trying to say here, the theme and the character come from a place in runeterra that have African inspiration.
I also really like K'Sante's and Nazumah's colour scheme. It's still part of Shurima, but colours are much more vibrant and saturated. And monster's design is very neat too. Great addition to Shuriman lore and bestiary.
Fun fact about K'Sante's game design! His stance change is influenced by Rock Lee dropping the training weights, that's why his ult is called "All Out". He's literally dropping his restraints and kicking you far away to 1v1 you with no holds barred
@@BeeCygNus tonfas (basically blunt dual blades), were only in one game and never had a mechanic like this because they were designed as low defense weapons in the first place
Really REALLY fitting considering his heritage (in game). Very nice use of vocals to give it a tribal feel, beautiful buildup and the flute is just the cherry on top.
@@taekwondokid9490 it's a very primitive and chaotic type of song, dont you think? Like a tribal music. I'm pretty sure that's the type of theme they are going for
Hands down one of the best champion themes Riot has ever made.. its up there with Pantheon for being the best theme in all of league.. massive props to the riot music team..
For real, this has to be one of their best theme songs to date, it's so powerful. It's up there with my favorites, Jhin, Kindred, Pantheon, Volibear, Ekko, Aphelios, Senna, Fiddlesticks and Warwick.
Truly a masterpiece. How it's mixed trap/hip hop elements with african trap music and developed such a strong synergy. Plus it goes perfectly with his story. Just fantastic. Riot's music team is truly amazing
2:15 for me is the best part. The whole song is fantastic, but this transitions with a little reverb and repetition of the background sound turn out to be very atmospheric, I love it.
I love how they add the concept of the character in these theme videos You can clearly see when the design took shape, when they started to have ideas for his trailer, when the switched from more detailed concepts to something easier to animate in 2d for the beast I love it
The amount of time that goes into not only the character design, but the build-up, the lands, the creatures and the story makes me wish that Riot would also work on making different maps other than tweaking Summoners Rift every year or two.
I feel so much PRIDE in his character design. I don’t think I can come up with another way of saying it. Hearing the music, seeing his culture, and his beautiful Afro-centric hair feels me up with so much pride
I heard this when he came out and it was cool, but this morning I listened to it on repeat while at the gym and I don't know what it is, but it's made me feel so incredibly proud to have African blood in me and everything from @1:52 onward gradually brought tears to my eyes. Incredible track.
You should be proud of your ancestors and your bloodline. Despite the cultural backlash on african people the music we know today came from Africa and almost everything which is music related goes back to that especialy the drummings.

Ngl, I feel like this theme has some of the same vibes as Monster Hunter themes which I just absolutely adore and think it fits K'Sante so well (not only is he a monster hunter, his weapons also feel like something that could exist as MH weapons). This is absolutely one of my favourite themes ever.
Well, he does use tonfas, which were a new weapon type introduced in MH Frontier. It also makes me a little sad there aren’t many tribal African inspired tracks in MH.
@@vanquisher4700 I guess it refers to future seasons of arcane, because it has already been confirmed that arcane will not only be piltover and zaun in season 3 they will change region

Same man. I heard this in the trailer and got extremely excited for the full version
when THIS is more hype that the WORLDS ANTHEM.
lmao so true
And EASILY too. Lil Nas X be like "Ueh I don't wanna make 2009 Skrillex music" but completely fails to see any other way to hype things up. Sad boi.
Ooop...the shade.. you aint wrong though 🤭😂
Honestly the world anthem this year is absolutely disappointing :( personal opinion tho
@@celestiacelestino9578 No no, it absolutely is. It just doesn't work as....a Worlds Anthem. It's a song. And a good one. But not an Anthem.

The transfer between 03:03 to 03:07 is totally giving me chills

2. K'Sante Theme
