Hecarim's Wild Rift redesign is a MASSIVE improvement actually || Casual Champion Review

[@xXDindoXx]

My problem with "Human Hecarim" is that I can't imagine him properly in the Stories, we have his look, but I ALWAYS IMAGINE HIM ON THE HORSE, he's going to visit Kalista in Prison, boom, he's on the Horse, he's going to meet the Viego in the Royal Court, Boom, he enters the Court riding on the Horse, he goes to the Bathroom, Boom, he inside the Bathroom, still riding on a horse

[@rubiconprime1429]

HORSE UP *dum dum dum!*

[@CrabKFP]

The horse stays in the bed

[@llllgor]

Boom, hecarim is the horse's name. =D

[@Mortal-Knite]

Let's just say he can't walk 😅😅😅

[@Tuskor130]

Using the urinal while standing on my horse to assert dominance

[@NovaGN]

Note: In the redesign, the horse skull moves because Hecarim wants to freak people out. The horse is dead, because he killed the horse's consciousness, cause Hecarim likes killing things lol

[@Kirbo_da_goat]

“Petah, the horse is here”

[@dinispedroso8151]

I think the reason they make Hecarim a good guy in most of his Skins is cause Horses have a lot of positive simbolism attached to them expressing values like Nobility, Courage, Freedom and Heroism so there might be some inate Bias when comming up with concepts for him.

[@Mortal-Knite]

Especially that his weapon doesn't look like a killer would use too. In different terms I mean

[@MIDO44444]

he seems like a soldier more than a killer

[@rubiconprime1429]

I finally finished reading the Ruination novel this month and human Hecarim is so charismatic that even though I knew what he would do he still managed to get me to question if he was really that bad. The love triangle between him Kalista and Ledros was very entertaining.

[@NuLL_Icarus]

I really want more novels like ruination but I suspect Riot probably isn't in a rush to make more

[@nartdarym4237]

I love ruination novel especially thresh backstory

[@Nickw2004]

THE WHAT?

[@rubiconprime1429]

@@Nickw2004 well, not exactly a love triangle. Hecarim and Kalista are betrothed to each other, but Kalista and Ledros (who is low class) are actually in love despite their best efforts

[@Marcai]

I didn't even think he was *that* evil in the book. He was actually right that Viego was a terrible king, he did have a strong claim, and he didn't even make a move when I feel he could have successfully done so multiple times. By the end, even the wise royal advisor Necrit believed the king had to go and that Hecarim's usurpation was the best choice for the kingdom, and helped orchestrate it. His ultimate evil was that he was a pompous upper class asshole soldier, but the entire Camavoran culture promoted that as an ideal. He wasn't even a raging jealous POS with Kalista from what I remember, they both knew their betrothal was business and weren't invested in it. Raiding the Blessed Isles was obviously morally wrong, but the power and riches they would have returned with would likely secure the realm after Viego's insanity. If the Ruination hadn't happened, he would very probably have gone on to be an incredibly popular king.

[@arnebanane147]

10 Things i learned about hecarim after watching the Video: 1. he likes killing people 2. he likes killing people 3. he likes killing people 5. he likes killing people 6. he likes killing people 7. he likes killing people 8. he likes killing people 9. he likes killing people 10. he likes killing people

[@Mortal-Knite]

Bonus: Dead horseman go fast

[@schaakakon9473]

Oh hey, you also forgot and left out that Hecarim likes to kill people. Just fyi if you missed it.

[@gilgameshthetreasurehunter2750]

"He is fused to his horse, a twisted abomination." See with that in mind, one would expect something like Ludwig the Accursed. Not just.....spooky centaur.

[@chitisright1337]

For every time Riot makes Morgana villainous in her skins they have to give Hecarim a skin where he's a good guy I guess

[@yousefkhazal5537]

Hey that was my redesign! Thank you and I'm glad you liked it

[@dripapproved1582]

World of Quest was such a goated show, the family guy of He-Man. It’s no adventure time but still a good watch imo. You brought back some really wholesome memories. Great episode as usual much love.

[@pop-tartdepression393]

World of Quest! Holy shit I’ve been trying to remember the name of that show for ages! Thank you

[@krok2112]

Shoutout to the champ that got me into actually learning how to play League. Gotta love my silly horse almost as much as Lewis

[@samfish2550]

I feel like a rework could be interesting, make him more lean/imaciated and maybe leave the centaur angle behind in favor of a Nucklavee direction wich could do a lot for making him feel more like he was..... Fused to his horse.... Also the fact that they are linked to water could be fun since the mists do have a ocean association just because they come from a island so they cross the ocean. There's something there.

[@Vernafveik]

I’d like to see a skin that turns him into a more stereotypical Centaur No mask, long flowing hair, woodland aesthetic

[@mangodude6790]

Lol Hecarim is "a twisted abomination between human and man." 10:15

[@phiphi2209]

I LOVE the Nicky MAN image

[@gunfrigginbelievable6092]

Hecarim really reminds me of Kharn the betrayer from 40k. He kills indiscriminately because he loves it, he is the favored right hand of a larger threat but is a nightmare all his own. On top of that he is known as the betrayer because he kills so indiscriminately he often kills his own soldiers.

[@Keaton_Ambrose]

"Lol," said Kharn the Betrayer. "Lmao."

[@josiebianchi3481]

WORLD OF QUEST MENTIONED LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOO

[@jowoman7799]

Merry Christmas, Nicky! I hope you have a good holiday season. Thank you for all the amazing content you do. I stopping playing League, but I'll always watch your videos.

[@paigeyorkman9341]

Worst part of watching this video with ear buds is that I hear you mash q when it's not up. And I do that as well. It is just like when you notice singers breathing in their songs. You can't ignore it after.

[@Grassymon]

one of my friends doesn't know ANYTHING about Legaue, BUT totally wants to play Hecarim

[@aidantryon2372]

The Wild Rift redesgin reminds me a lot of the black knight ghost from Scooby Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed lol

[@TheEliza1969]

damn, you just unlocked some memories when mentioning world of quest. completely forgot that existed...

[@balintgyuri6555]

Damn you Nicholas Boy! That World of Quest reference made me cringe into the ethereal planes and back. Late 2000s/early 2010s TV shows are the bane of my existence. Once I remember the main theme of one of them, all of the others flood my brain and can't forget it for weeks.

[@cristobalibarra6106]

It's currently 12:55 am here in Chile, I'm watching this video as background sound, meanwhile I am in queue for a ranked after a lose streak of 6 games

[@thefuzziestmonkie1515]

7:00 ok, a hippo can run fast af. I think Hecarim going fast makes ne think of a Moose actually, which run at like 50mph I think while in chest high snow.

[@DjokaruRuzicru]

10:17 "You would want him to be a twisted abomination of Human and Man"- NyckiBoi

[@Doct0rBustdown]

Excellent video as always

[@ender1546]

I know Adventures of Quest! :D I watched it on Jetix! It's also was called goofy in our localisation, "Quest's quest" or something among those lines 😆

[@aowens40601]

The problem with hecarim and other movement speed styles is that in the right hands it's impossible to play against cause they can just outrun all abilities.

[@CoolBreaze75]

13:32 why was there a brief metal pipe sound effect??? 😂😂 am I the only one who heard that?

[@Auditore_2023]

Congratulations Nicky) we are closing to good old TREE GUY)

[@ryankimoto2572]

The adventures of quest call out is something I needed today.

[@TigerKirby215]

I was not expecting anyone to bring up The Adventures of Quest ever. That show was freaking weird... but in a kinda cool way.

[@Rathial]

"Oh Boy, Here I Go Killing Again" ~Hecarim probably

[@joshb1898]

I can’t believe I got world of quest jumpscared in a NickyBoi vid 😂

[@GuardianGrarl]

*Look at that, Abu !! It's not every day you see a horse with two rear ends !!*

[@markuswedlich2880]

Body horror Hecarim idea: horsehead is there, but also the centaur/human upper body. The human body just sits on the other end of the horse. like a bi-directional centaur. it would be so dumb

[@Кожуркаотпомидора]

If something looks heavy - it doesn't mean it is slow. Look at winged hussars. Or Kamaz Master.

[@jurasicers.r.o7174]

I like that showned redesign and it fits but i just realized what if he looked more loke Ludwig from bloodborne who is also amalgamation of man and horse.

[@Кожуркаотпомидора]

Erebus, but khorny. Now you can imagine him as antagonist.

[@fireguardianx]

The viewers version of hecarim doesn't only make the horse make more sense. It also makes hecarim look way more camavoran! The armor design is more in line with LoR Camavor and Kalista! Sadly, Rito is never gonna do that because of countries having restrictions on depictions of death...

[@geebee13]

WORLD OF QUEST MENTIONED 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 CANADIAN NOSTALGIA ACTIVATED

[@PiantaBroker]

17:20 Look I appreciate the comedic cut, but dammit, I would've liked to see the final teamfight. Like what happened?

[@thelord7478]

hecarims new splash art reminds me of tahm kench... please tell me im not the only one

[@treetopninja836]

WORLD OF QUEST MENTIONNED 🗣️🗣️🗣️

[@yourmexican98]

BIG world of quest reference

[@thongdo9809]

I prefer the heavy armored looking hecarim more since I go with his theme of charging like a knight into the fray of battle.

[@jayjake9371]

my words to the people who watch on christmas as well 0:57

[@O_Coisa_Ruim]

If you want to get some ideas on the whole "horse and man fusion body horror" thing, look no further than Ludwig the Accursed from Bloodborne.

[@tadihotado3518]

omg mundo is finally in the damned playlist

[@F.H._Army]

Check out anything from Gurren-Lagan, if u want to see some faces on where chest plate should be.

10:20 nicky got aphelios'd

[@AndresLopez-st3lz]

If you want a real half horse half man chimera monster look at Ludwig from Bloodborne

[@Hismora]

NickyBoi the Horse is here

[@jerri_the_platypus]

The biggest buff to Hecarim when he merged with his horse is the +12 inches added to his pp

[@stormwarrior5362]

18:00 You are goddamn right. That movie was a disappointment. But Deltoro’s original pitch wasn’t that much better.

[@llllgor]

Imo, Hecarim concept is cool, a centaur with something that is not a bow is always welcome, the whole idea man and horse fusion menace killing machine stuff is interesting but he is undercooked, his design is literaly ghostly armor from transilvania but on a horse wich i think is sad given that since he is a fusion abomination you could go nuts with the fucking fusion... and his skills... i love champions with move speed but rammus does a better job on mashing the keyboard... and nunu is faster with his snowball - takes longer to reach peak and lasts longer but yeah - Overall Hecarim for me is a solid champion, just needs a little more love.

[@slimer2135]

I feel bad for whoever matches hec on tinder expecting his wild rift model

[@thenikropolis]

Mordekaiser was changed so Hecarim could look like this

[@CptApplestrudl]

You know, Hecarim would make for an interesting Vestaya during his lifetime. Maybe he was always a centaur?

[@UndeadKraken99]

Nicky I’m sad to say but no one plays skarner

[@ChromaAqui]

3:00 Paranoia?!? Heartsteel mentioned?!? 🤯🤯 /jk

[@johird9990]

merry krimas :>

[@shinoengimono9304]

whenever theres a shadow isle champ im reminded how they massacred thresh lore

[@johird9990]

i just realised how little lore karthus has! like he's got a short story and thats pretty much it! shame because he has decent potential (btw would love his gameplay to be more lich like and not just spam Q and R)

[@jinxxed1883]

I would love to seeyou play wild rift I hope you see this

[@sorlakgear]

Stinky caballito de palo boi

[@BansheeNT-D]

Still miss the old head design. This one still looks like a april joke.

[@casualmanticore2758]

Imo the head looks a little too much like Thresh. Hecarim and Thresh have nothing to do with each other besides both being from the Shadow Isles so it doesn't really make much sense

[@boredhuman6512]

I never cared for him before the ruination novel but in there he was great, I really do like him now. And yeah playing wild rift I do enjoy his redesign

[@agent_meme2710]

Rehab was su-

[@Mevenda1]

Too many champs have streamlined, easy-on-the-eyes designs. I like the monster with a lot going on in Hecarim. And making every evil character have a "good" arc now is garbage. Kalista should be straight up evil, Morg should be evil, Hec should be evil. Not everyone needs a redemption arc.
