Great Vid!!!

I genuinely didn’t think you would fulfill your promise of making people attached to Midas, but I stand corrected!

[@Scyan]

Told you♥️

[@HarusameHazuki]

I love how Scyan lore videos have the occasional whiplash from "somber and serious storytelling" to Scyan just screaming into the mic about something funny and tangentially related complete with non-sequitur imagery (like at 5:56), really keeps me on my toes, it's like a teacher giving a vibe check to make sure I'm still paying attention lmao

[@Scyan]

😭🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 LMAO, im just here telling sad midas lore of losing his daughter, then just going crazy saying dumb things chaos bam boom No idea what goes through my mind when i record vids

No wonder why the recent Lego Fortnite update was about Cars featuring her daugther, just after Midas Floor is Lava Jules got the entire Omniverse to be the ultimate ingenior with the whole crew and her dad beside her❤

​@@Scyan Hey dude, do you often play with your subscribers ? I'd like to play with you ! GoldPhantom05 That's my online name. Also, me and my girlfriend spent a whole year working on a Creative map that's supposed to be Midas' and Marigold's secret private villa. Many hours, love and details have been put there. Would you like me to show you, perhaps ? Hoping for a reponse from you, that'll be cool !

[@CasualSHADOWenjoyer]

I bought Midas the second that update came out and I can say confidentially, next to Midas Rex, he's my absolute favorite Midas skin

[@Scyan]

HE IS SO AWESOME

[@alphagamerdragon7027]

His new skin this season is pretty cool but I wish I could of gotten his original skin that was eaten by the shark

[@AndroEnergenic]

As soon as I saw Midas in the shop. I immediately SCREAMED MY HEART OUT. I grabbed it so fast like the speed of light. I did recorded it and looking back rn, I feel so happy that moment happened

[@Scyan]

peak has once more returned to us

[@mikorex4848]

I think Midas eventually learned to partially control his golden touch on the right but the left he can't control

[@Scyan]

Would be interesting to see

[@adammaclin671]

Why you think that

[@mikorex4848]

@@adammaclin671 because he only has his right hand but still has the golden touch

So it turns out he was never a villain after all, he just wanted to redeem himself for his past mistakes

Yup!

We need a Queen Marigold skin that compliments the King Midas skin

[@Chargod]

The goat has returned!!

[@Scyan]

YESS♥️

[@funnygamer361]

Now the only problem I have with this is, how much of this is actually, like, confirmed? Even Midas himself tells us that the stories and myths that people tell are inaccurate in some way which makes figuring out his past even harder

[@Scyan]

90% confirmed Rest best choices for how things should go based on lots of research, like midas soul being taken but hades not confirmed but most likely choice, everything else prettty much confirmed

[@mala188]

Poor marygold she stil can t control her golden power 🥲🥲

[@thegigachadfortnitechicken4887]

One thing I learned is that the anime midas and the frozen legends one is not important to the storyline rather then being just re-skins just for sell and money for epic games

[@Scyan]

Ice one 100% that was just made to go Anime one kindaaaaaa has tiny bit of story, but not very important to core midas lore, so also mostly for mone yes

What's up bro? how are you doing? You remember me, right? The guy who's been giving you speculations about every fortnite season that I can come up with? I think Midas might play a major role during the live event in this season i am so happy that Midas is back.

Our King has returned! The Myth of Midas continues with Scyan as his trusty herald. The day may belong to Midas but this crown belongs to you Scyan God of the Fortnite Storyline 👑

[@Scyan]

MIDAS HERALD LMAO, i love that Thank you so so much❤️

[@brokenpositivity1855]

So basically what I get from this entire lore video of Midas... We're experiencing not just a Time loop but, a broken reality that seems to transport us into different timelines of the fortnite universe all because Midas tried to fix a mistake that he made. Actually never mind for a moment I didn't understand what you were trying to say... I just woke up recently.

[@ryanfares263]

I think Midas actually died because Ascendant Midas has a style that looks like he was from the Underworld but I don't think he is fully dead because he returned as his human form as seen in the Rise of Midas loading screen or maybe the green style of Midas means that he will take over as King of the Underworld

[@Vezaiho]

I recently got into Fortnite, so I didn't know much about Midas until now. Your video did a great job of showing who he is, what a cool character! By the way, any chance you got a high resolution of the 0:03 image, where he has his back to us? could be a cool wallpaper

[@Scyan]

Thank you so muchhh! I have posted the picture in my twitter, maybe you can find it there. @ScyanYT

@@Scyan it's a joke

[@tabbycat8595]

Did you know Midas is Zues biological son sense it was confirmed that the fortnite Midas is the king Midas from Greek mythology that means Zeus is his dad because Zeus got with a human and ditched them and she married a king and that’s how Midas became a king

[@Scyan]

Wait? Ima look into that

[@tabbycat8595]

@@Scyan does that mean hades is his uncle?

[@lunacat4221]

@@ScyanI just looked into it myself and I found a god of war article mentioning Midas to be the son of Zeus, and not only this but in god of war Midas lost his left hand to lava as the article says “Midas then saw a mirage of the lava being the River Styx in the Underworld. Thinking he is dead, he places his left hand in the lava, which burnt off.” Fortnite’s Midas is missing his left hand though not to lava, but he is able to turn the lava into gold. This is also the manner that Kratos kills him as he throws Midas into the lava and the lava turns into gold. I think it is possible that Fortnite’s Midas could be linked or referenced to god of war. (Just to clarify I do not play god of war or know much about it I just found out about this on fandom so you could look into it yourself.)

yes he says his story is not the same as the mythics, but veryyyyy similar

[@smog-17]

I have a theory, an awful theory but it’s still a theory.

[@smog-17]

My theory is that chaos agent is a alien from the last reality, the head size, hands and skin all point to this conclusion.

What is the thumbnail look like glorious colourful?Click bait

[@Scyan]

breh?

[@beefBoss_fortnit]

I like this theory but Marigold is actually Midas’s sister!

[@Scyan]

I dont agree with this but sure! There is no super confirmation saying which is for sure true But the way she says “found someone who undrstands the golden touch like me” or things like that. Your sister is with you, how would someones sister find their brother?

[@beefBoss_fortnit]

@@Scyan I shouldn’t have made it seem as if it was fact but I was under the impression that it was confirmed to have been Midas’s sister. Something funny is that in the real Greek Mythology story, Marigold is the name of his daughter (Some others believe the daughters name is Zoe) Though in Fortnite the daughter is confirmed to be Jules I think

[@catx5]

Why didn't midas just put something on his hands

[@Scyan]

His golden energy prob can pass through it

[@catx5]

@@Scyan thanks

[@Chargod]

W VID!!!!!!!

[@Scyan]

THANK YOUU

[@blazingbarreljay137]

Dude the story confirms Marigold is one of Midas's daughter's. Jule's is the other daughter he kept away because she didn't get the golden touch and have the same power so he wanted to keep her safe at arm's length. Dialogue pretty much confirms it but in short Marigold is the tough older sis who inherited the Golden Touch and Jules is a genius tech he wants to keep safe. It's different from Greek lore. The fact you opened the video he had a daughter with his daughter is cringe..

[@Scyan]

The storyline confirmed the reverse! Marigold is not his daughter I used to believe it too, but this season pretty much proves the opposite

[@blazingbarreljay137]

@@Scyan when you look at his card and the prison she mentions her dad. She looks up to him and has more priviladge. She is basically the daughter who goes on the front lines and got excited when her dad busted out of the underworld. Her mom is Rio btw Aka midas' wife. Both Midas and Marigold get pissed when she gets found as a Golden female skeleton turned by Oro.

[@blazingbarreljay137]

@@Scyan he is indeed a tragic character, Former IO operative at the level of Salome who knew how the storm works and had to disguise his work so he made islanders go chaotic. He had to kill his turned wife and give his own life to let both his daughters live. The whole reason he went Rogue from the IO is because his family actually took the ageless deal from the IO and worked for them loyally but it's the reverse result of Jonesy's whose family didn't accept and he outlived them. So Midas thinking if they worked loyally with the IO they would be safe until they encountered the anomally of Oro and Rio was the first to investigate and disappeared. Midas was focused on running things for the IO until he found out about Rio through Marigold. Salome never told Midas directly about Rio's fate so he would keep working and thats when he went rogue.

[@blazingbarreljay137]

@@Scyan It's messed up but Salome Gaslighted every major character. Jonesy is the result when the family didnt take the protection and you out live them. Midas is when your family accepts the protection but they dont tell you when your other family die so you act like puppets.

[@mixed.babyy1]

So it’s confirmed that Marigold is his wife not his daughter?

[@Scyan]

Yep pretty much

[@hind7604]

@@Scyanwhen was it confirmed?

[@VolcanoFarts15]

Uhmm you actually got a few things wrong marigold and Midas are not dating it’s been confirmed by the creator of her skin that she’s just a gender bent snapshot of him and that’s why they are so similar she’s also not Jules’s mother either the relationship she has with Midas is a sibling like bond so that means she would be like jules’s auntie and you basically just told the story of Greek mythology Midas which the Fortnite Midas is completely different the only thing they have in common is their names and the fact they can turn things into gold also you forgot to mention the fact he used to work at I.O but then again it seems like you haven’t really done your research so I wouldn’t expect you to know that.

[@Scyan]

Creator of the skin is a fan not an epic employee! So it doesn’t count

[@VolcanoFarts15]

It still kinda does count but even if it didn’t count how do you explain why she looks exactly like him just female? plus no one would date someone who looks identical to them and if epic was nice enough to put a fan’s skin in their game I’m pretty sure they’d be nice enough to add the tiniest bit of lore along with it
