First Time Reaction: League of Legend's MUSIC VIDEOS (Warriors, True Damage, Rumble Remix, Paranoia)

Characters in "Warriors" are not real people, just representation of the pro players. But characters in "Rise" are all real pro players. Oh, and "Warriors" was also animated by Fortiche.

7:13 The guy in the red SKT1 shirt goes by the name Faker. He’s the most well known esports player in the world and was the undisputed best player for many years, though an argument could be made he’s still the best. Not only has he won four world championships with his team, he repeatedly pushed the limits beyond what we all thought was possible and repeatedly changed the way everyone played the game. Hearing other pro players talk about him was like they were talking about a god. You couldn’t only play at 100% of your ability against Faker because you’d lose. You had to give it 120% at all times and you’re still likely to come up short. The gap in skill has closed over the years so he isn’t as ahead as he once was, but his run during his prime was seriously legendary stuff. It’s super cool to see him in cinematics like this.

If you guys liked the last one with Heartsteel, there is a "blooper" version of it, where it's the behind the scene of them making the clip! Also, fun fact, K/DA (which you might have already seen but not published yet), Heartsteel and Pentakill are all from the same "alternative universe"' in League! (So they all know each other, Akali for example, lore wise was part of K/DA first and moved on to True Damage) Also, for K/DA, it's not pronounced K dah, but K, D, A, each letter pronounced individually, it's an acronym that stands for "Kill, Death and Assist" from games in general, and Heartsteel is an add-on in-game and Pentakill, since the game is 5vs5, it means killing the whole team (usually solo or with assists)... I may be geeking out too much, but I love watching you both react to every league video :D

The two guys in "As We Fall" are Valmar and Kai. Two hunters from Ionia that yes, are also in a relationship :D Anyways, as you've seen one of them got wounded in the war between Ionia and Noxus (If I recall correctly). Both of them then made contact with a darkin called Varus. - Darkin are essentially warriors from Shurima that corupted over time and went mad. They then got sealed into their weapons by a god and if mortals touch the weapon they get posessed by the darkin within it. - So Valmar and Kai met Varus and the souls of all 3 of them got combined in one Body who acts as a playble character in LoL also called "Varus". Even tho Varus is a Darkin, he is supposed to be one of the more reasonable ones who is not completely nuts und fckd up in the head like Aatrox for example, due to Valmar and Kai calming him down everytime he get's a bit too angry.

Rise is still peak Worlds cinematic. The storytelling is next level detailing the journey of the previous year world champions, represented there by one of their player "Ambition". One great detail is that "Finger Crossbow" guy (aka Uzi) hits Ambition twice, cracking his glasses and hit his shoulder. That's because Uzi's team beat Ambition's twice during the group stage, but he still gets past him, as his team still qualified for the playoffs, later winning the whole tournament. After the fight with Uzi, Ambition goes through a valley with a bunch of giant statues of champions fighting a dragon. Each year the members of the winning team can pick a character to get a team themed skin in game, and those are all of his team's choices. The dragon is a neutral monster on the map that you can slay for bonuses. Those statues you see in that final arena each hold an orb with the logo of previous world champions, then after Ambition defeats "Faker" (Ryze guy), representing their opponent's in the finals, the logo on his back gets engraved into another orb and he starts celebrating. (Despite Faker being the GOAT, it was probably the most one sided finals in the history of LOL world championships) In the end they have "finger crossbow" guy waking up in the same place where Ambition started because his team was one of the favorites to win that year. There's a lot more going on but that summarizes the main story

[@animagamer2]

Don't worry, being able to actually understand the lyrics of a metal song is a skill most of us have to acquire over time😆Metal is a very vibes-based genre so it's totally fine so long as you feel it out.

Don’t think I saw anyone else mention this but the remix rumble was especially fun because in the game you can mix and match the music based on what units you’re using on your board at the time.

It's so cool how you recognize the champions in the skin videos. Can't wait till KD/A To help you get to know some of them: Pentakill: Sona (the red hair lady, she isn't ginger and she is also the big DJ lady screen in the Rumble Remix), Olaf (a viking from freljord), Mordekaiser (big Noxus villain), Karthus, Yorick (both from shadow isle) and Kayle (the angel one, she is from an Aspect from Targon but protects Demacia). True Damage: Ekko, Akali, Yasuo, Qiyana (Becky G/ an empress from ixtal that can use manipulate water, grass and rocks), Senna (sentinel of light and Lucian wife, she was trapped in Thresh's lanter for a while and you'll see more of her in other cinematics) Heartsteel: K'sante, Yone, Ezreal (a thief/archeologist from Piltover that is interested in magic artefacts), Aphelios (a Lunari from Targon that lost his voice both in lore and the heartsteel universe, that's why that part when he is in the water is so melancholic), Sett (a half vastayan, his mother was from Ionia and his lost father is a gladiator from Noxus), Kayn (the one that reminded you of Jinx, he used to be Zed's pupil and then got in a weird relationship with a Darkin, they fight over control almost like Kai and Valmar do with Varus)

[@4lbfer]

The girl in pentakill with the red hair is Sona, she was in Ryze's video for a brief moment, she has those big blue pigtails (like Hatsune Miku). She is mute and plays that piano/harp instrument. She is also the giant DJ in remix rumble in her DJ Sona skin which was an ultimate tier skin(most expensive kind) which came with some EDM songs released. She also appears in the Odissey skin video if you ever watch that (there is Jinx and others). The champs in pentakill are Mordekaiser(guitar), Yorick(bass), Sona(piano), Kayle(voice), Karthus(voice) and later Viego(voice). They have like 3 albums released.And yes the yordles in the video were Teemo, Rumble, Tristana (Recieving rumble's flower) and Poppy (she has a hammer, appears in a skin). Teamfight Tactics started making skins for their game too like Illaoi(in the crowd), Jhin(violin guy) or Bard(jazz guy) that can be seen in remix rumble. Other champs that appear with a skin are Vi, Jinx, Gnar (a yordle that transforms into what you thought is Warwick), Twitch (rat), Amumu (skin is called Emumu cause he is emo lmao), Tahm Kench (catfish demon).

[@wjhull]

I'm probably ab it late, but I'll try to answer all your questions: - Darkin are basically demons who were banished into weapons. They usually take over the people who wield them, so Varus coexisting with both 'hosts' is weird and unheard-of in the in-universe lore. (Though not as weird and unheard-of as Naafiri, the Dog who Ate a Knife.) - The Pentakill characters are from all over, but you're right--most of them (the two guitarists and the singer) are from the Shadow Isles. The keyboardist (Sona, who looks weird because she usually has blue hair) is from Demacia by way of Ionia, the drummer is from the Freljord, and you were right--it was Kayle who swooped in at the end, and she's from Targon. So basically all the regions that aren't featured (or mentioned) in Arcane.

[@chainsawboy2388]

Dameon are not demons, Evelyn, tahm Kench, and Fiddle sticks are demons along with a few others. Dark in are fallen ascended, like Azir, Nasus, Renekton, and (kinda) Xerath. They were a part of the old war against Icathia and they fought the void but the voids whole thing is corruption so it corrupted their mind and nearly drove them mad. But Azirs amazing leadership inspired them to fight back against the madness and they maintained sanity for a while, then Azir died (freaking Xerath man) and now with no one to ‘hold the reigns’ the corrupted ascended went mad and started killing each other. Then Xolaani made blood magic and they used that to transmute their bodies to be perfect to them.

[@SamificoBigaveli]

If you want to know more about the world of League of Legends, you should react to Necrit's - "The World of Riot's MMO is Already Done". It explains the basic lore and traits of each region in the universe, including Piltover and Zaun.

[@tobygamestablet7941]

And in that season each faction had its own theme song and if you played various factions at the same time the song remixed just like it did on the video. It made every game fun to listen to at the very least. I miss it.

The varrus one IS EPIC. The imagery of how they fused both minds and bodies. JUST EPIC!

[@ramonrivera2353]

Legends never die is the besttt song in my opinion. The live performance was amazing too at worlds

[@boggless2771]

The Darkin are a bunch of DemiGod-Warriors from Ancient Shurima that were corrupted during the Void War from the bloodmagic they used during the war. Thats what I know at least. Notable ones are Varus (this video), Rhaast (Chapion name is Kayne), and Aatrox (Still Here cinematic). There are more, but I think these are the more intersting ones. The important thing to know about them is that they are completely immortal, but they are sealed within their weapons. Varus is a bow, Rhaast a scythe, and Aatrox a sword. They possess people that make contact with them and reshape their bodies to be more like their original shape, which is why we see Varus form over the guy in the well.

[@Loey1309]

Oh KDA time is coming. Excited already

[@satsunada]

Quick easy primer: Darkin are an ancient race of pretty much Demigods from Shurima. They used to be called the God Warriors.. but they directly fought the Icathian Void and lost their leadership, then Azir was betrayed and they lost their king and kingdom, and then they spiraled into madness. That madness got them punished by the Aspects, specifically the Aspect of Twilight (currently Zoey, the one before her did this), and their souls were banished into their weapons. Those weapons, when held, release the demigod level soul and power into the person/thing holding it. At current, the Darkin officially as league characters are Varus (bow), Aatrox (sword), Naafiri (dagger), and Kayn/Rhaast (scythe)... there are still a few God Warriors though too, so Azir and Nasus have kept their sanity... but Renekton lost his mind.

Great reaction! And you will get more top ones the more you watch :)

"Rise" is one of what they call the Worlds Anthem songs - each year for Worlds, Riot has been putting out a song/music video to hype up the eSports side of the game. Rise features a Korean player called Ambition; Ambition had been a long time veteran of the Korean League scene and despite being of the best players in the Korean scene had never found much title success being overshaded by another Korean player called Faker. Faker by then had won worlds 3 times, had multiple wins in the domestic Korean league and was (and still is) regarded as the GOAT of League. In 2017 Faker and his team T1 were going for their 4th worlds title and were up against Ambition and his team Samsung Galaxy. Ambition/Samsung were able to defeat them and Ambition finally pick up his first worlds win. So the video for 2018 is showing Ambition's 'Rise' to the top, as he defeats some other big name players (European player Perkz and Chinese player Uzi, before facing the 'final boss' Faker).

[@LuxAbortera]

I love so much this reaction.Thank you for the video

[@Louis_CG]

2:30 Yes Fortiche worked on this music video as well as Rise and Pop/stars from K/DA !

[@OldManJacan]

Stumbled onto this and absolutely loving the reactions, I think you guys should absolutely check out all of the other worlds songs/videos they did for each world championship. I will admit that a solid chunk of the videos will be a bit confusing as many of them feature actual Pro players who were going to be competing that year and so without the context of who they are some bits may be lost as much of the videos are telling their stories (2023’s for example was the story of Deft who has been in competitive league for a very long time and always did good but was never able to take that last step to winning the full worlds championship until the year before) but even still many of them have absolutely stunning visuals as they’re animated by Fortische and the songs are always amazing (it’s a running joke at this point that the videos and songs are better than the game itself)

[@OldManJacan]

Also just as a note if you want some extra context on some of the players (especially Faker who is considered the Greatest Esports player of all time) there’s a KZbin channel called “TheScoreEsports” which does a lot of gaming news but also does documentary style things for esports, they’ve done a few videos on Faker, there’s also the Hall of Legends video for Faker that Riot made to commemorate him being the first member of the League of Legends Hall of Fame

[@dquanissavage6287]

Meesh & Dee Awesome Video Today!!🔥🐐🐐💎

[@ESP_Blinks]

8:10 is nice you try to guess, the regions, the champions and the situations, but keep in mind that worlds videos have 0 lore, is all about the players and the champs they play or played in the last worlds championship

[@kaynandsona4424]

"Looks like arcane" its the same studio :D

[@ScornedJayce]

Damn! Didn't expect the Remix Rumble to be on the list! 👍🏽 Great addition from the TFT cinematics. Also Remix Rumble has a part 2 I think with the remaining genres.

[@conneryechout7143]

Yes, Fortiche animated the 2014 video, as well as the 2018 one, which kinda explains why those ones have some of the most views🤣

[@narutobulut9527]

they also hosted a like 2hour long interactive, live mo-cap heavy metal concert

[@Miomena]

Oh I love the league of legends songs, I don’t even play the game. I also really like to listen to you. I prefer this calmer reaction over screaming.

[@chaosultimamage]

The True Damage song was just so insanely good and different

[@gexianhen]

remix rumble was season of teamfigth tatic game, is a game where u form teams of characters. in this season all the team where diferent bands and music styles and when u have a few memeber of one team your background music change into that band style. the crazy is that u can add a second band even a third and the music change as a mix of their styles. the amount of diferent song u can make was incredible, from kda kpop, true damage hip hop, pentakill metal, to electronic, jazz, country, disco even clasic music.. it as Great. u can listen some of those song in youtube many people reocrded the diferent convinations as songs

[@Miss_Take]

you two are so funny 😭can't wait for the next league reaction

[@MeeshDeeReacts]

🥰💞

[@ScornedJayce]

If you guys liked the violin from Remix Rumble, then you're gonna love this. Look up the Jhin login screen theme. Jhin is the guy that was playing the violin in the Remix Rumble video. Violin is 🔥 in his theme. Almost every champion in the game has their own theme music. Many of them are EPIC af. For example, Jhin, Pantheon, Fiddlesticks, Senna, Renata Glasc, etc.

[@alchemicpink2392]

Teemo is considered to be literally Satan because his primary play style is stealthing with his passive, running away, poisoning with his basic attack, denying empowered basic attacks and infesting the map with poisonous mines. He is in the top 2 of most obnoxious to play against champions. (Also according to his lore he's a psychopath assassin while on a mission.) Hence why he gets kicked off by Kayle.

[@AlexandraColombo-b2i]

i love how they at least know a little bit of lore and facts about the mvs. cuz some reactors just react and go without understanding what reallly was happening in the mvs.

[@ESP_Blinks]

Normally there are 2 types of worlds video, 1 they follow the story of a palyer, like in the Rise one we follow Ambition and his jorney in the worlds and he has the 3 weapons of the his 3 main champions "Kha'zix clwas", "Sejuanis leash????" and "Jarvan IV spear" and of course in the finals he met SKT T1 and probably the most important person in League which is the midlaner Faker playing his amazing Rize

[@antoniogeox]

Yuo should really watch the Open Ceremonies of each Final World Cup, they bring these music videos to life

[@ardagoktugaraz4128]

omg im so glad you watched as we fall its my favorite

[@sollnoll9271]

Awesome reaction!

[@user-ei1hb3ty3r]

For "as we fall" the ideal would be to read the comic and the complete story of Valmar and Kai, the end of the story is the video clip As We Fall.

[@szop2525]

Darkin are corrupted Ascended. Ascended is someone that went through the ascension ritual to become god warriors in shurima, these warriors went corrupt becouse of their trauma from the void war and damage inflicted on themselves from using blood magic that they've learned. Currently all known darkin are sealed inside of weapons, and when someone touches that weapon the darkin takes over their body, for example Aatrox with his greatsword, Naafiri with the dagger, Kayn and Rhaast with the scythe

[@BurnDem101]

Aw man almost 40 min of music videos on a lazy sunday. Yall are spoiling us! Had to add: Ultimate Mommy = Dee-sh 🤣

[@VioletMoonfox]

I'm pretty sure there are two sets of pentakill skins. I can't confirm because it's been like three years since I opened league.

[@TheJerbol]

Damn Remix Rumble is pretty sick

[@No1fan15]

WAHOO!!!! God I love the MVs, especially Paranoia

[@imajackal]

I'm super late to this video but I see no one really explained the As We Fall video with the 2 lovers from Ionia Valmar and Kai (Valmar is the one dragging Kai at the beginning and Kai is the injured one). They are both Ionian and were under attack all of a sudden by Noxus. Valmar fought with Kai and unfortunately Kai was struck multiple times by arrows. Kai told Val to run but Valmar was told about an ancient magic that could repair that which has been lost which is that well. They didn't know but in reality that well was guarding a sealed Bow that contained a Darkin. The Darkin are basically these ancient fallen Gods that are immortal and can only be sealed within their weapons. Val was trying to save Kai by taking him to the well and sacrificed his own body but instead the Darkin that was sealed inside basically fused their bodies into Val's body. 3 different beings in 1 body. At first Varus (The Darkin that was sealed) took over Val's new body with Val and Kai's souls still being able to communicate within. Varus is a creature of revenge and retribution. He basically fed into Val's anger at the Noxians and controlled him to hunt down the Noxians that hurt Kai. Kai begged Val basically to let go of his anger and that he still loved him. Eventually Val came to his senses and together they fought against Varus internally and took control of the body. Now they seek a way to be free of the Darkin and return home to Ionia only after they've gotten rid of Varus and find a way to be themselves again. There is an entire comic dedicated to this video and I highly recommend you guys read it whenever you get the chance. There's actually an entire comic about Katarina too as well since I know you guys like her a lot too. She has a lot of cool lore that is intertwined with Noxus and Demacia. Loved watching you guys as always can't wait till you guys get to listen to KDA music videos with Akali. Ya'll are gonna lose it when you see their videos.

[@MeeshDeeReacts]

This is so wild! Thank you for this snippet! We will check it out 😧 Appreciate the support, K/DA reaction coming very very soon 😉🫶🏼

[@dupree9881]

You have to watch 2019 opening ceremony, especialy the True Damage part! Crazy good show!

[@Drake844221]

One of my favorite videos that they've done is Phoenix from 2019. I trust that you guys will get to that one. As for the KPop, one of the single biggest markets for League is Korea, and many of the high-profile professional players are Korean. Not saying that as a bad thing by any means, but it is where a lot of the KPop influence comes in. And when it comes to KPop, just wait until you get to K/DA...

[@Sumpula]

I think you guys should check a Finnish band called Nightwish and their song "Ghost Love Score (wacken 2013 live)" Its a known gateway drug to rock and metal music. I've seen countless people reacting to this song saying that they have not liked metal at all before seeing this live performance. Imagine absolute epicness, xena the warrior princess, lots of fire, 82k crowd. There is so many metal genres that there is something for every single person in this world. 😊

[@nottomcruise6474]

I have the Rumble Remix on my spotify playlist. Such a banger

[@chizara1971]

Watch the fire to the fuse cinematic. The animation is nice and the song is great. I highly recommend

[@kerraii2008]

I believe that is supposed to be Faker in the Rise song video as the person with the eyeglasses backpack and magic book because he plays mages?
