The whole Cinematic is based around Kindred (Lamb and Wolf). In the World of Runeterra, Kindred is essentially the grim reaper. She collects those in death. there are signs of Kindred in all 3 scenes. the Scenes are broken up into Past, Future, and Present. In the Past, Two Demi-Angels, Kayle and Morgana Defended and dealt justice in a Land that would eventually become known as Demacia. The Scene Depicts an area under siege by the Darkin Aatroxx. Darkin were originally ascendant beings but they were driven mad by the void in a war long ago. Kayle and Morgana are sisters, their Mother is an angel, and they both hold 1 half of their mother's sword. They defeat Aatrox. In the lore, Kayle is stoic and brings justice in a very cold and unemotional way, while Morgana is more affected by the plight of humans and reasons that judgement and justice can be tempered. In the scene Morgana drops her mothers weapon and taps into darker powers to fight Aatrox, you can see the disdain Kayle has for Morgana in the quick glance she gives her, even as she takes up both halves of her mothers sword and causes the firestorm. if you look closely, there is an afterimage in the fire that is Kindred. Then you go to the Future, in Ionia, where we are greeted by an Old man version of Yasuo. After he uses his whirlwind, you see many arrows in the sky coming for Yasuo, including a bright one, which appears to hit him, this is the Arrow of Kindred, claiming Yasuo. if you look in the sky, you can also see the apparent shape of a wolfs head. in the last scene, which would be considered the Present, in Frejord, you see Tryndamere, who has the power to avoid death by tapping into his rage via blood magic. He is married to Ashe, a Frostborn Tribal Leader. In the scene, Trendamere is fighting death (literally) by fighting against Kindred (the Lamb and the Wolf). Tryndamere power in game is literally to become un-killable for a short period of time. As the fight goes on, Kindred lets her bow go because Ashe has arrived, and saves Tryndamere. It's not his time to die.
Well, Kindred is a representative of death, not the only one. But they are the one who's name is mostly used. There are other ones, but their names are or have been pushed away. But Kindred are the only ones in the MOBA portion of the game.
Just a correction - morgana is nor evil nor her powers is. The powers of hers is celestial by nature and the reason everyone depicts her evil is because she moved away from the teachings of her mother basically, but she really never did anything evil per say.
Yas accepting death. Tyrndamere fighting off death, and even Aatrox got a visit from Kindred. :) My favorite jungle champion, death itself finally got shown some respect.
In my understanding, the scene where Tryd fights Kindred is not an actual event that happened in the world, but is a metaphor of him facing terrible danger, which was the men behind them trying to attack him. Kindred (the Lamb and the Wolf, in one) in this game is Death with a capital D. His fight with Kindred is like a metaphor that describes his struggle against fate, for life and free will, similar to Sylvanas. In the end, the Lamb lowered her bow, which I interpret as a metaphor that fate has decided that his time to die is yet to come. Therefore, at the exact time the Lamb lowered her bow, Ashe appears to save him, and she only saw the men behind Tryd trying to attack him, and not Kindred.
You are almost there. Tryndamere was fighting for his life, though in the real world he was fighting the Winter's Claw forces, he was seeing them though as Kindred. This was an canon use of his Ultimate Undying Rage. Kindred was there to claim his life, but when she saw how he fought to not die, and then realized that Ashe was there to save him. She decided that today was not the day. Ashes's arrows brought Tryndamere back to there world of the living both figuratively and literally as when he saw his wife there she calm his rage. Only do you realize how much damage Tryndamere actually did. With Yasou, this part takes place in the Future, it is a vision granted to him by Kindred. It is not set in stone, but it is a possibility. In this version of Yasou he has sworn off killing people from what I can tell, and didn't want to use the wind technique because it only seems to bring death around him, but to save his life he called upon it to stop the gang. However, if you pay attention he never strikes anyone with the sword, but the wind. At the end you can see wolf's eyes looking down at Yasou as the hail of arrows comes in. But when he accepts his fate, Lamb's mercy arrow takes him out before the arrows can tear his body apart. Also his attack on the gang leader, pushes the leader out of the path of the Arrows, thus proving that Yasou has sworn off killing folks. Least that is what Necrit said. I believe it. Kayle and Morgana scene is like 1000 years in the past before they stopped talking to one another, and were both the twin aspects of Justice. Battle of Xephra or something like that I believe. But this is certain the fight that probably puts the schism into action. And yes this whole cinematic is really happening as it is officially Canon to the lore.
picture it as trydamere is dancing with death, kindred feels more like fate, tryndamere fighting for his life. the men surrounding and fighting tryndamere were kindred and kindred was them, the two behind trynd was going to kill him, kindreds arrow and them were the same. it’s less kindred "realizing" ashe was going to save trynd, more ashe intervened tryndameres fate, saving his life at the last second. it could also symbolize tryndamere fought with all his rage, and right at the end was finished, maybe exhausted or something along that line, because kindreds arrow is mercy, so he was on the brink of accepting death
Canonically Kindred is only visible to those who are about to die. He WAS fighting Kindred, though his attacks were landing on the enemy attacking him in the real world. Each attack from wolf or arrow from lamb in this battle had a counterpart attacking from the enemy. He's just the only one who could see it (though kindred probably showed herself to the others Tryn killed as well.) and yes, when she lowered her bow it was because Tryn lasted long enough to no longer be "marked" (because Ashe saved him) This does bring up an interesting point though, every time Tryn has to ult to stay alive just a little bit longer, he sees Kindred. Meaning this is not the first time they've fought. Far from it.
Main character: Kindred Aspect: Death (Lamb and wolf, the sweet embrace and violent end sides of death) 1. Kindred(Lamb) sillhoutte when tryndamere is near death 2. Kindred(Lamb) in flames when Aatrox burns 3. Kindred(Wolf) in forest when yasuo closes his eyes and accepts death, Kindred arrow leads to transition (Lamb) 4. Kindred(Lamb and Wolf) fighting tryndamere Death is never far away in this world.
both use celestial shit kayle just hates morgana for leaving their mother's style and adapting something else it is not about dark and light as people think lol not your typical angel vs fallen angle !
Honestly Morgana isn't the bad one. She is empathetic and caring, she believes in redemption. Kayle rejected emotions and she is the bad one in this conflict. Kayle blindly believes in her understanding of justice.
@@ImAmirus Yes, according to the lore. Kayle is all about justice. Her followers are as devoted to her ideals as she is. You follow Kayle, you dont break the law, you will live a great life. She just doesnt forgive any transgressions and will always punish your crime with what is in the book of law, no nuance about it. Thats why I said that a society of Kayle followers would be an utopia, not a society of "normal" people.
Kayle's eventual conclusion that her emotions caused her to make dire mistakes is a completely valid conclusion, because her emotions making her follow justice blindly is exactly what her flaw is. Her solution of wanting to purge her emotions through pilgrimage to the heavens is not far off from monks who have a pilgrimage of enlightenment to free themselves of negative emotions and behaviors. Neither Kayle nor Morgana are evil or completely good. It's easy to hate Kayle because she starts out judgemental and then picks a solution that is difficult to relate to for most people, but that in no way makes her the "bad" one of the two. She wants to be objective in her pursuit of justice because justice with bias is simply injustice in disguise. Morality is best served with a clear and calm mind so as to make as little mistakes as possible. Empathy is obviously needed, which is why Morgana is also an essential perspective, but Kayle's is still valid and not evil.
She literaly started genocide because her follower died and that made her angry. Her ideology was extreme and black&white. One point I have to give her is that she allowed Morgana to rehabilitate sinners. She is not a true villain, but she is not good. If you consider story tropes people like her are considered bad. In comparison to Morgana she is definitely the bad one.
To answer pringlez91's question in chat at around 2:57, Arcane takes place in Piltover & Zaun, the 2 areas in Runeterra that are closest to our modern world in terms of style & societies. They're also the areas that barely have any mages or magic, which was explained in Act 1. These are why Arcane felt grounded, because they chose the regions that don't have so much crazy fantasy stuff.
The characters are more relatable as well, by being normal ppl compared to the Darkin, Ascended god warriors, or Aspects... I reckon towards season 3, maybe 4 of Arcane, they'll start introducing increasingly more powerful characters when they change locations to Noxus... but this will be after Caitlyn becomes Sheriff of Piltover.
The last time we all saw Yasuo he was headed to bilgewater and the whole ruined king business with ahri it might be hinted that he bonded with her and she siphoned off his lifeforce in exchange for getting his of his bad memories.
I feel like I need to make couple clarifications about aatrox/tryndamere relationship. Starting with aatrox he is Immortal, he cant die and even kindred cannot claim him, this is the main reason he is trying to destroy world - in his logic if he destroys everything else he will cease to exist too. As for the Tryndamere - he technically immortal as well after getting stabbed by aattrox. Thats why kindred being confused(tilting her head) as she cannot claim him, at least while he is in undying rage, but in trailer at the same moment ashe comes killing killing other soldiers off hence removing the threat for death - so the kindred retreats. I think you already guessed that fight against kindred and wolf is only in his head. In reality he was fighting of other soldiers.
The issue is, you never know when it's their music and when not when watching live. I don't exactly have time to go copyright search but yes, if it's theirs you're good.
They said is free to use there music... Also for the content creator like you... And to help hear other people there music... Except imagine dragon song 😬
Yeah, Riot tries to keep as much of their music free to react as possible. Some of the major artists that they work with are under labels that don't respect that.
I've been claimed a few times actually. It all depends what music they use. Cause if its Riot's own sure you good but sometimes they use songs that get claimed by the artist although that was a few years ago so may have changed.
Why would yasuo not be old? Kayle and moegana segment was clearly in the past, so why would they stop from showing someone in the future? In this case, yasuo. I think it's cool cause in terms of lore you wonder how did he end up there, opposite yo kayle and morgana where you see origins of ehatever happened with them. I think it was a nice balance of moments
League doesn't ever copyright strike.....they've gone public saying they WANT people to share and react to their stuff. There are 2....maybe 3 things they've put out that get strikes but it's not because of riot, it's because the artist/poducer/company they collabed with wouldn't let go of the copyright. Everything else they've put out isn't striked.
Biggest example, anything done by Imagine Dragons cuz their record label is an asshole about reporting and taking down videos with LoL songs done by them. Outside of that I dont remember any of their other music causing issues.
hey accolon why dont you start working on league of legends lore ? since there is an MMO game coming out from riot based on LOL universe and characters ...the story will surely be interesting
I liked readin one of the first comments in his chat saying "cringeass music that never fits the cinematic" already knowing it was this one time this person should have not written anything;) Funny
I left wow twice and came back because no other game can scratch that itch. Blizzard should be scared shirtless knowing league mmo is coming. The players will not have to tolerate the abuse anymore. Right now Blizzard can do what ever it wants knowing there's no competition but it's comming.
Nice reaction dude - maybe don't pause halfway through multiple times though - Watch it through first then go back and comment - I can imagine a fair few people are clicking off as a result

Funny how Morg is still a better person then Kayle is all while being "Dark"
Bro thats racist
@ardatasma4196 what you gonna do about it 😏

Yasuo was given a vision of his death as an old man by Kindred, you can see the Wolfs shape in the forest as Lambs arrow flies at old man Yasuo.
