Honestly, you getting the songs mixed up is not a big deal. It's kinda cute. I am glad you enjoyed it :)

G2 was playing with a home crowed advantage, and on the verge of finishing on a golden road. They won their regional winter split, regional spring split, and summer split - all 3 in first place. Furthermore, they won the international Mid Season Invitational. (A baby version of worlds, in the middle of the year). They were 3 games away of winning EVERYTHING and being the first team to do so ever in the history of league of legends. They lost 3-0.

Chrissy Costanza performed both Legends Never Die and Phoenix. She has been a huge fan of the game for years, so its nice she was able to become part of the history.

If you interested, there is a documentary about how Riot Games made this Worlds called "10 months, 10 minutes". So much work was done for it to happen, and they still wasn't sure it goes as planned until ceremony end

To clarify some points, in League of Legends championships, teams are competing during 1 year in different regions to qualify at the end of the year for the worlds. Strongest ones are South Korea and China, they basically won EVERY worlds, Europe and North America are just behind, they are the 4 major regions, all the others qualify 1, sometimes 2 teams. Worlds 2019 were in Paris with a European team in finale, wich is rare, and even more rare they were considered as one of the best team, they won against big Korean and chinese team, so yes the public are completely for them, everyone in the crowd were for them (even if they lost 3-0 with only 1 really good game, everyone were silent at the end lmao). I'm french and I was there, others opening are incredible too but they mix reality with virtual (thte crowd can only see it on big screens) here we didn't need any glasses, the scene is surrounded by transparent screens and special effects are displayed on it, the crowd can see everything with their own eyes

So, the trophies you see the teams holding are the trophies from their regional leagues, which they both won. FPX is from the LPL (China) and G2 is from the LEC (Europe). That's also the reason cheers were so much louder for G2 because they are essentially the home team with the finals being held in Paris. Note: The LoL Worlds Tournament is held in a different region every year typically rotating between Korea, China, Europe and North America since those are the major regions.

So, this finals are usually BO5= Best Of Five Games, which means whatever team wins 3 games, wins it, each game takes roughly 30 minutes to be over, so the whole match can last from 1h30 from 2h30 plus some minutes here and there

@mazhiwezakizo3513 4 ай бұрын

So the idea behind the song and the video is that the 3 players, are fighting their inner demons, negative emotions and thoughts that are holding them back, this is then translated into the game as evil versions of their characters, essentially saying they are now "fighting themselves". Then of course it concludes with them rising up and beating their inner demons to become the best they can be to compete in the championship.

Did you notice that the guy on 17:01 is the second real person that appears in the phoenix music video? He is one of the best players in the world to this days and, like Faker, apears in multiple world championship videos.

@Drake844221 3 ай бұрын

Phoenix is one of those League cinematic songs that always gets me. With the life struggles that I've worked through... honestly over my entire life, but especially here within the last several years, that whole sense of holding onto who I am, despite how hard the world... and my own internal monologue tries to tear me down is a very powerful theme for me. It hasn't always been easy, but the key is to never stop trying. Also, in this cinematic, the three people who are featured are players who lost to the team who won the previous year's championship, so it is fundamentally about them having to pull through and overcome to not let that defeat destroy their confidence.

G2 were the home team so to speak, hence the louder cheers. They are a team that plays regular seasons in Europe. FPX the other team is a team from China. I don't see them much from reactors, I think mostly because unless you follow the game, some of the information is hard to follow. If you liked the 'hype' from this opening though, you might like the "Moments and Memories" videos from the world championships. Specifically 2016, and last years 2022 were good years in my opinion.

Nice. Worlds song finally got an approval rating lol. The ceremonies are mostly amazing though, if not an epilepsy check. Demographic: That was a Chinese team vs a European team. In France so of course G2 (the EU team) got louder cheers. Anyways great reaction

That's a very wide perspective tho. Back in the day games used to take longer, nowadays ( for like the last 5 years) a professional game usually runs between 30 and 45 minutes, with some going above 45 and some going below 30, it's incredibly rare having a game reaching the hour nowadays

the cheers are louders, because it's their home team (as it's taking place in france in 2019 - it's been a while since not just Korean and Chinese team dominated the finals xd) and it's a best of 5 in the finals, with commentary and analysis in between, so a full finals event can go between ~5 to 9~h about the tropies. there isn't only the world cup. the torunaments leading up to that (in EU case spring and summer split) respectivly can be won (1st place) and there are also other tropies given out for MVPs and "best in X-achievement" kind of trophies plus there are other mid season events, not tying in with the ranking or points or anything of the main "world tournament"

the team people were cheering louder for (G2) were the first european team to reach the world finals in 8 years. they beat the odds at every step to make it there, the finals are dominated by asian teams as they tend to be just insanely talented. G2 were BIG crowd favourites but unfortunately lost (it still hurts 5 years later)

Fun fact: That trophy box had technical issues on the day and would not open so that's why the moment it was supposed to open, camera was going around. Riot had no plan b for this; it was a win or lose moment. Also you have to play for 30-45 mins depending how you guys play and depending on how long you can get objectives for. Quickest a game can run is 15-20 mins. I think here, everyone can see the holograms. Also no, the trophy is set before the teams win or lose in the Finals.

@vichokupoxx 4 ай бұрын

Little fact, the effects of the opening ceremony of that year did not need virtual reality or augmented reality glasses, people could see all the effects with the naked eye, to achieve these effects Riot used a Holonet that projected the effects as a hologram. There is a video of Riot that explains the whole process of the final, if it catches your attention I recommend you to watch it, it is really interesting, you can watch it off camera if you don't want to make a reaction, but I really recommend you to watch it if it catches your attention.

League of legends worlds in terms of attendance sell more tickets than traditional sports finals. They completely sell out the arenas they are at most years. Venues will compete to host worlds because it’s big money for them. The trophies the teams already have are the trophies from their region which got them to worlds. I believe worlds finals lasts 3 days but I’m not too sure

In league we play as Regions lpl = china, LCK = korea, LEC = Europe, LCS = North America many others but those the main regions with Korea and China being the best. The one you watched was a final between EU G2 and China FPX so its in a European country so its home even though they may not be french. This years worlds is late September early november start i think in Berlin, Paris and finals in London.
