2:25 feel Thai music omg so epic!!

[@bosspacharapol895]

Because Thai music ❤

[@rinrada_con_om1302]

Yep. Tarphon the name drum in the song 2:25

[@jackbrydon7166]

I SEE what you are trying to say.

[@exiledtobronze8694]

As a lee sin main I don't.

[@ravindupadmanath2802]

How about you SEE DEEZ- *Gun shot noises*

[@fallen_Spartan79]

Are you sure? I seem to have _lost sight_ of the point.

[@qwertyuser8541]

I SEE the sarcasm now

[@ilikeswishcheese]

I’m Leesin ing to what they have to say

[@jasonwowhero8147]

Literally. Every splashart. Just kept adding the pony tail. Based

[@vecrb00]

Some time ago, I remember that someone from Riot mentioned that there are champions that do not need a complete or partial rework (among them he mentioned Miss Fortune and Lux), it is likely that Lee Sin is one of those characters, and if they receive something like that , they will only be very minor changes and will give them a theme like Lee Sin

[@jennytulls6369]

@@vecrb00 Why wouldn't MF or Lux need big changes? Miss Fortune's character design is awful and Lux's is mediocre at best

[@vecrb00]

@@jennytulls6369 In the case of characters like MF or Lux, they would only receive minor updates, such as Lee Sin, Caythlin or Ezreal, not a larger rework like Udyr, Volibear or Mordekaiser the reason is because the character art works like this, and the moveset is not obsolete

[@jennytulls6369]

@@vecrb00 But like I said, I hard disagree with the notion that Miss Fortune’s art “works” and that Lux’s is anything more than passable I do agree that both have solid kits and are some of the most beloved champions for this reason, but art wise just, bleh and meh respectively

[@boszbutcher5383]

Thanks for Soloists from Thailand this song so freaking GOOD !! 😘🥰

[@bxela9691]

Old league champs finally gettin their personal theme i'm actually happy :')

[@yulian545]

Like this Xayah?

[@SEXHenriIV]

@@yulian545 tipical comment from a player that don't play the champ

[@jasonwowhero8147]

2:54 was anyone else expecting the orchestra to get ponytails?

[@evilvie]

😂😂

[@thomasschulz2140]

I absolutely love the fact that slowly every champion gets their own theme. Many champions still need one and the process is slow but when they actually come around to do it, it is always astonishing. Much love and respect to the music production ❤

[@FalcnPWNCH]

An absolutely beautiful and serene soundtrack for Lee Sin, it is so crazy to think that some of the Champions like Lee Sin are so old that they've literally never even gotten and OST for themselves.... let alone an official champion spotlight

[@captainxemo3804]

What's even crazier is there are champions who are *older* than Lee who still haven't had any kind of update since their release, and need it far more.

[@Revion91]

Lee had a champion spotlight im pretty sure

[@jmvicente820]

**looking at Singed.**

[@altide8784]

Wish it had more oriental elements to it, like Lunar revel 2019 theme

[@aaabbb-zc7sx]

​@@jmvicente820good.hope he gets deleted.he's less fun to play against than vayne top

[@TheReaLFrankage]

Can I still dragon's rage enemies into their nexus to win the game? You know, because I'm Lee Sin, the blind monk!

[@SugarPopoto]

His skills should not have changed, its mainly visual aspects

[@gat_0]

OFC cause you're a ranged, melee, tanky DPS, assassin, mage, tank, support, jungler. You excell at everything.

[@Kniightisa]

Ah yes, the old April fools video

[@RiDaku]

I have that video bookmarked just so I can show it to friends

[@abcar_]

Actually you can on Legends of Runeterra

[@АртурЗаяц-ы8ф]

+1 music for training in the gym.

[@alkeemist007]

I enjoy how much of this video focuses on Lee Sin's importance to League as a game and a sport. Really glad he's getting a glowup.

[@alb1reo]

Lee Siiin - ranged, melee, tanky DPS, assassin, mage, tank, support, and jungler all wrapped up in one defective man

[@phucnguyenhoang9711]

can't get enough of this.

[@RocoPwnage]

the video highlighting the most minor splash art changes is so goofy lol

[@serflord]

Anyone else remember the first Lee Sin champion spotlight? It was for April Fool's Day, and Lee's Q and R were global. 😂

[@tadihotado3518]

I *see* this is an absolute win!

[@jolexhopealfanta7658]

I love the Storm dragon without the pony.

[@_mementox]

roses are black, violets are black. everything's black, i can't see. - lee sin.

[@trimex7234]

Actually blind people don't see black ☝️🤓

[@videosyouweresearchingfor6126]

Depends

[@-diego-9571]

I'm loving those visual reworks tbh

[@TerryLen]

So glad to have a theme that we will never hear again because login screen doesnt exist anymore

[@TERRASIA]

10/10

[@AubreyfromOm0ri]

This doesn't have anything to do with this but, please please please please make star guardians 2024!!!! Everyone loves star guardians, you will make money and attract new players!!!! I got into riot because of star guardians!!!!

[@princeapoopoo5787]

They cant keep getting away with these banger champion themes wtf

[@Johneczek]

I have been playing LoL since season 1. Over the last few years, I haven't come across any cheaters (maybe occasional cases once a year). Today I uninstalled LoL and deleted all keys in regedit, cuz of Vanguard. Gj Riot

[@Henry-mw1xg]

vanguard = uninstall

[@linodilucia1853]

i agree

[@jorgemigueltavares6041]

At least the music doesn't force us to install that piece of spyware. But yeah, Vanguard = uninstall.

[@RusselChristopher]

Bye 😂

[@xcorpionz922]

You going outside now and touching grass? Or moving to a different game?

[@Laci-ps9xq]

Redemtion arc begin

[@pessoa.nadanormal]

Im happy with the results

[@horrordemon635]

banger.

[@ShiedaMyun24]

Voicelines when??

[@tobiaskjrgaard6071]

Hes the Iron Fist!

[@afilthyweeb8684]

One of the most chinese champs in the game. Probably only tied with master yi and wukong. Let's get a thai people to perform his theme. I can only assume they got taiwan and thailand confused.

[@m0m0ark83]

Or maybe, they made his character leaning into more Muay thai inspired? Hence why he got thai music influences

[@Circurose]

It seems he is now Muay Thai inspired.

[@yendayo]

this is pretty lit

[@Mysterie]

10 minute club let's go

[@u.google]

why is this not recommended to me? and everyone?

[@vanMrMann]

Just wanted to let you know, that with the Vanguard update, it's my time to quit league. After 12 years I feel absolutely betrayed.

[@mattemattics5667]

Wait is this coming with a new animated video about Lee?

[@donnu4657]

Jarvant still waiting

[@yoneeze]

okay, i get it

[@uwu__sama]

Amazing

[@iperbueno719]

Eu gostei como manteram a identidade visual do Lee. É só um rabo de cavalo mas tira aquela cara de personagem genérico

[@trimex7234]

He always had the ponytail, he just had it wrapped around his neck for some reason. I agree having it flowing around gives him more personality

[@HAZE_WoR]

nice a new Aphelios and Zeri, will be broken for sure, waiting for hotfix

[@saadghali9803]

? The same patch he is getting the ASU his 3three first items are all getting nerfed.....

[@pessoa.nadanormal]

Riot adding the ponytail, yess 😂👏👏

Too bad New001/Good News Lee Sin/Audible Chocolate isn't part of Riot anymore... it would have been hilarious to see him get a ponytail as welll

2:20 Ok, Riot, you got a snort out of me.

[@candela__]

Lmao

[@LintuWaterfall-ey9xo]

"OK, we need to give Lee Sin an ASU. What do we do?" "Ponytail." "...........GENIUS!!"

No parents, they have paid the toll and your next, jeremy

[@oskarekstrand9825]

Theme of: Putting ponytail on bald man

[@a1a1g1m1]

He always had the ponytail

[@quirkycat]

Lee sin is not bald, and was never bald - only in cosmetics

[@JumpscareRodent]

Lee Sin has always had a ponytail

[@xxstealerxx]

maybe you're the blind one

[@antoniocuorleggero9253]

lee sin never been bald he always had a ponytail they just made it move

[@kxgr9522]

It's crazy how people are mad over the ponytail while it has been a part of his design since he first came out but due to limitations, it was awcwardly tied around his neck Genuinely impressive how the blind character is less blind than the community

[@shadows_star]

This is also obvious because he had his ponytail out in several cinematics too.

[@videosyouweresearchingfor6126]

Lee sin's VGU has taught me that the league community knows nothing about character design, and has poor taste.

[@kxgr9522]

@@videosyouweresearchingfor6126 this has been the case for basically a decade now but this isn't really about taste or functioning eyesight but more about community hivemind mentality which replaces valid criticism with like farming and (pun intended) blind hate So even if one has a valid argument, the hivemind will twist it to something ridiculously stupid

[@danle187]

i don't mind the whole ponytail identity, i just wish they kept it off of pool party and incorporated it in storm dragon better. the way his hair looks makes the ponytail more of an accessory attached to him rather than actually being his hair

[@pedropimenta896]

I miss when there was a login screen with musics and animations. Diana had the first one with lyrics, and URF was absolute FIRE 🔥🔥

[@LISA.WANG.]

I’ve been curious, I’ve never seen one but at what point do they play? Is it before the match loads up?

[@sonyS12game]

​@@LISA.WANG. when you launched the game, you had the login screen where you had to put your password. It played there.

[@cursedblade525]

My favorites ones are by far : draven, darius, kha'zix, rengar and lucian.. so much nostalgy when i listen to them

[@master007s7]

Borren ese juego de mierda

[@fallen_Spartan79]

"Master yourself, master the enemy." Protector of Ionia. The Fire of Shojin. The Blind Monk. Lee Sin. (Lee was also the first champion that got me hooked into the lore of League and Runeterra as a whole. So this theme is special to me.)

[@AlKraTaZ]

The combination of thailand instruments is pretty cool.

[@Fazlly62]

1:44 finally, they update the Coconut !

[@seriousllee6225]

he also got a watch :D

[@zoltanvitos6901]

I want to play league but i cant play because of vanguard! Please remove it soon!!!!

[@nartdarym4237]

Are you part of the 40%? Maybe 🤔

[@Moonboy65]

wow, that theme was really good, wasn't expecting vocals at all either

[@saikaTKNS]

Delete your f**** vanguard as it is already bypassed

[@shallow2479]

deleted lol because of vunguard

[@shiramaro]

[@KUNDON2]

ไม่ได้ Main Lee sin แต่ชอบเพลง ที่มีดนตรี ไทยบรรเลงด้วย สนุกมากๆ

You know what? I actually like the braid! But, it's a good thing you didn't put it on Dragon Fist Lee Sin.

[@PAI-Marn]

2:47 They should have kept that cheerting Udyr. It really portrays the friendship between them. Edit: I also found Udyr on 2:42 . He looks like a fellow Muay Thai fighter or a coach.

bro this theme goes to hard for its own good absolutely going in my playlist

[@stephenferrigno6216]

New visuals but still no fixes on the bots or terrible culture within the game players? Sounds about right.

[@АлександрЮшкевич-в9ь]

ok, good, now delete vanguard

[@hng-sn]

I genuinely thought it was gonna be another safe, generic theme until the chanting at 0:45 started. Wish they'd kept that going through the rest of the theme.

[@injoe824]

Im fine with everything except for storm dragon lee sin, why the pony tail?
