The lore explained for "still here" is pretty nice because it's such a lore packed video, whether you have it as a video or just watch it on your own is up to you but the one by Necrit is highly recommendable :)

The wolf and lamb at the end are Kindred is the "God of Death" such a cool concept from a story telling and visually captivating. Very different from the badass red guy Aatrox at the beginning but you'd be surprised how much story he comes with too. League has great creators and a lot of time into the stories fleshed out. Soooo much cool story behind the second cinematic!!! And yes, the lore video Necrit has (I think he has 2 videos) they are a must.

[@Mirikal]

A New Dawn is a cinematic telling of a in game play session. A lot of the abilities are showcased in dramatic fashion.

If that video of the "Still Here Lore Explained" video is by Necrit, then yes! He likes to do videos about the lore of League of Legends on his channel and does a very good job explaining it to veterans and newcomers. Awesome reaction by the way! I hope you do more! 😸👍

[@Sbeve55]

Yes!!

[@adambalogh8728]

"Still Here" is very lore heavy. It is basically about Death with a capital D. Death is the lamb and wolf pair in the end, lamb is the bow user and wolf is obviously wolf, they are named Kindred. Their duo portrays the duality of death, wolf is the violent death, struggle trying to escape it, while lamb is the peacful, quick end of acceptance. The first fight is the past. Kayle (white angle) and Morgana (black angle) they were the aspects of justice There is more to unpack here but not enough text area for the relationship between the 2. They are fighting against the Darkin (god warrior corrupted) Aatrox, the being is the sword that took over a mortal body and reshaped it with bloody magic, hence the synergy with sword heart. Morgana sacrifices part of her power to restrain him so Kayle finishes it. Lamb appears in the flames when they consume Aatrox, you see Lamb cause wolf is consuming the host in the form of flames (Aatrox does not die only the host) and oviously a violent death, cause blood magic kept the host alive forcefully. Second is the future. Old Yasuo, he saves a village from most likely raiders who either appaer due to an other Noxus invasion or just bad guys I am not sure about that part. It is pretty straightforward from there, he saves the woman and the baby and finishes the ppl there but they send a lot of arrows his way, he knows he is finished and accepts death. You see wolf in the tree line. He accepts death so Lamb's arrow finishes him. The final is basically the present. It is Tryndamere fighting. In short, they are in tribal war. In the begining you see soldiers encircling him, then we get to see him fight Kindred. The second part is basically all in his head. His rage and innate blood magic basically keeps him alive on deaths door. Kindred tries to end him as obviously he should be dead, but because of said powers he can fight back. Kindred is neutral tho so when his wife, Ashe appears saving him Kindred leaves him as from that point onward he is no longer on deaths door. Kindrad can't take his life.

[@marvinh4893]

It's very interesting because you're supposed to see Kindred in the last seconds of your life. But what about Tryndamere. Does he see Kindred every time? I never thought about that.

[@LCBelgarath]

@@marvinh4893 Oh hai wolfie! Been a couple weeks, how ya been? Lamb, you still doing the whole...death thing?

[@thorvaldoinson688]

@@marvinh4893 Technically, each time undying rage is used, he just fight Kindred, because he's litteraly fighting death

[@Shiftry87]

​@@thorvaldoinson688 Yeah thats true and from Kindreds perspective he is at deaths door and should walk through it but somehow manages to refuce to getting pulled in and Kindred does everything they can to try and force death on Tryndamere during hes rage. I think Necrit put it perfectly when he said that this wasent the first time he fought Kindred as Tryndamere dosent even seem supriced to se them coming for him.

[@gyranix]

@@remmy3571 I wonder if Tryn would die of old age since he isnt a full Darkin or Hemomancer. He cant die in battle cause of the rage but would his body eventually wither away from age? Maybe thats when Kindred would finally be able to take him.

[@valkig3578]

11:50 that sword not only has a pulse, it is actually the main body of a character imprisoned within the sword, winged demon is just a puppet.

A lot of the abilities shown in A New Dawn actually exist, but they're a lot more impressive due to it being a high quality cinematic. They're basically showing you the playstyles of the characters and some of their abilities while you enjoy the show!

[@danielcoronado4010]

ADC playstyle, get one shot by the assassin and do nothing but flame the supp and let it die, but still try to capitalize on the supp skills in the end to take all the credit.

[@Digiimon]

that last bit is always my favorite the part with ''Sean Bean'' especially 15:38 part because lore wise that girl that saves him in the end is his wife. In the lore they are married because of political reasons, they are both leaders of different clans and had to get married to keep the peace but eventually fell in love and became leagues own power couple :)

[@MrDarkSidius]

I've watched multiple reactions, and every lol player reacted to Ashe same way: "Wife 😃"

[@HexJK]

Very quick summery of the "Still Here" cinematic: 1st fight - Takes place in the past, depicts the winged twin sisters Kayle and Morgana defending Demacia from an invasion led by Aatrox (a corrupted god-warrior known as a Darkin). 2nd fight - Takes place in the future, depicts a very old version of Yasuo protecting a village (without killing anyone), and ultimately letting himself die in the end. This is presumably a "vision" being given to present Yasuo. 3rd fight - Takes place in the present-ish, depicts the barbarian leader Tryndamere defending himself from Kindred (she's essentially the grim reaper, a metaphor for death). In reality, he was actually fighting off soldiers, and he was fatally wounded (hence why Kindred is trying to claim him), however he is "cursed" with the ability to heal fatal wounds, making him undying. The woman archer in the end is his spouse, Ashe, the War Mother. Some stuff you can read into that are very related to this cinematic: - Darkin (what Aatrox is, will explain why his sword has a pulse) - The relationship between Kayle and Morgana (will involve Aatrox) - The relationship between Tryndamere and Ashe (will involve Aatrox) - Kindred Another content creator known as "Necrit" also makes videos explaining all of the lore, and what's going on in cinematics like these. He's a good source for learning about League's universe, and his videos aren't too long (so they won't be like a 20 part Warhammer series, just quick explanations of lore).

[@botondnyitrai3128]

Gotta get this comment to the top. I am doing my part 👍

[@Mr_Kernel]

Absolutely yes to watching Necrit's lore video. It will make you appreciate the artistic decisions of the writers in Still Here. Watching it again knowing the lore is a delight to creativity.

[@redroseibarahime8755]

while "A new Dawn" is really just a show of of the characters and their abilities- simulating the usual 5vs5 game, "Still here" is very lore accurate and honestly, without knowing that, you miss half the good implications and art/cinematic choices here - everything is placed for a reason there and it is just fantastic. League has a pattern where it takes 3 events into one cinematic to tell the story. In this case they went even further in artistic choice - the overall topic is "still here - prevailing against death (=lamb and wolf, which you can spot in all three events!)". The first setting is the past, the second with yasuo is a possible future and the third is the present with Ashe rescuing her husband Tryndamere from the wintersclaw tribe (when she rescues him, kindred(lamb and wolf), the concept of death, vanishes since his life is not in danger anymore. I highly recommend to watch the lore explaining video on this cinematic. I love all the expressions alone that convey so much already - especially at the end and of course we see a lot of abilities here too - everything avcoding to the ingame mechanics :) I think Necrit explains them as well.

[@MarshGlyph]

Definitely see the lore video. As others said, this video is so full of lore that having some background info really makes you appreciate the tiny details in the cinematic. Plus, as a writer yourself I know you'd appreciate the heck out of this lore.

[@PhoenixPalmer88]

It's so weird being a 2WEI fan because I end up seeing people react to LoL cinematic stuff and it feels like they're reacting to my favorite music. Love it.

[@aiden717]

Most of what you see characters do in "A New Dawn" are specifically renditions of abilities they have in the game so, yes you can do those things in the game to anwser your question.

[@milesdavis7598]

If you want a lil lore drop about the red demon man with the sword, his name is Aatrox and he is the sword. It's a prison where his soul is trapped inside that also let's him possess whoever picks it up. He's 10 feet tall because that fake body is just people he's been murder blending then using blood magic to reconstruct into a suitable meat suit

[@tenou213]

Loved the creative analysis here! Lots of details are just taken for granted.

[@Rannulfus]

There's two videos by that individual who does "The lore explained", the first one that sets the context, and the second one that expands on the info. I recommend both, even if you don't react to them, Necrit is really good.

[@zumbrella927]

Glad you're back. This was a delight.

[@Twitch2099]

Ok, so for the "Still Here" cinematic, the whole thing centers around a being called "Kindred" who is the personification of death in the League of Legends universe (like the grim reaper). It's a dual being. The "Lamb" and the "Wolf". When they come for you, you either accept the Lamb's arrow and get a peaceful death, or you rage against it and die a nasty / violent death from the wolf. With that in mind, the first sequence in the cinematic is Morgana (More-Gah-Nuh) and Kayle (like the green leafy shit Kale), twin sisters whose mother was the Aspect of Justice, and gave them each half of her sword to fight the Darken (kinda like a demons). This particular one they fight is named Aatrox (Eh-Trocks). His sword pulses like that because where the Darken actually resides is within the sword, and when someone picks up the sword, they are corrupted into the thing we see the sisters fighting. In the game we always see Morgana and Kayle how they are now, whereas this video is them way in the past before the both accepted who they really are. Morgana accepts the "darkness" (for lack of a better explanation) of humanity and Kayle becomes the new Aspect of Justice forsaking all humanity within her entirely and becoming very cold and inhuman. That's why you see her smirk / give Morgana a condescending look as she walks by. She's disgusted with "what she's becoming". You'll also notice that neither the lamb or wolf are present in this fight because even though the body Aatrox corrupted died in the fire, Aatrox himself doesn't die, because he's inside the sword, which is indestructible, hence, he's immortal. For the second sequence, the character's name is Yasuo (Ya-Sue-Oh). He's a very popular character who actually has his own mini movie that they made about him that's fucking beautiful, but the gist is he's like a samurai who's spent his whole life fighting and has special wind powers which are so unique that at one point in his life he was framed for killing his master because someone used something that made it look like he did it, and was chased down by his brother and they fought and he ended up killing his brother in self defense. Anyway, this sequence is a vision given to him of one of his possible futures. In this particular one, he's given up on his path and stopped using his wind powers entirely at first, and eventually realizes he *needs* them if he wants to be able to save these people, so he starts using them again, but you'll notice there's no blood anywhere, and that's because he refuses to actually kill anymore, and so instead he uses the wind to knock people out, not kill them. Then at the end, he sees a literal *wall* of arrows coming at him, and decides that he's saved all the people in the village, so he's no longer needed, and closes his eyes, apparently accepting his death, but they've purposely left it open, because that's what Yasuo often does. He closes his eyes to center himself before he acts (like earlier in the cinematic where he split the arrow in half), so it could be he's accepting his death, and that white arrow represents the Lamb's sweet release of death, or if you look closely you'll also notice that in the background the Wolf lurks, waiting for Yasuo to try to resist, so it can attack him and "take his life" violently. Then in the last sequence, the guy with the big sword is Tryndamere (Trin-Duh-Meer) and his special power is that he has a supernatural rage that is so powerful, he literally can't die, no matter what (for a short amount of time), and so you see him fighting the Wolf, but the cool thing is that he isn't really fighting the Wolf or the Lamb, he's *actually* fighting all the people that surrounded him in the very beginning of the video, it's just that we're seeing the fight *conceptually* as him "fighting off death" (AKA the Lamb and the Wolf) and at first the Lamb is confused because who is this man that isn't dying when they come to claim him and accepts neither the sweet release of death nor dies to the violence of the wolf? Nobody has ever done that before, and all of a sudden the Lamb lowers their bow because they realize it isn't his time to die. His wife Ashe (Ash) has come to save his life and fight by his side, and as she arrives, we fade back to reality as his rage dissipates (we see this physically as his eyes go from red, back to their normal color), because this woman he initially married for political reasons but then ended up falling in love with for real has come to save his life and fight by his side. She is the literal definition of a true ride or die and it's just......*chef's kiss*

[@bluecoke6828]

you jumping up and down while watching it made me smile haha

[@xXBenutzer235Xx]

The crazy part about the pulse on his sword at 12:00 is that it isnt just visual. He (Aatrox) is basically something like a demon who IS the sword. And through someone carrying that sword he possesses them so that he has a host to actually achieve whatever he is up to. So yeah the creativity in Leagues lore often surprises me as well.

[@Bishie4Bara]

I'm not a massive lore guy but I do know the wolf and furry bow lady at end are essentially embodiment of death/Grim Reapers that you see just before you die and if you accept death you get a swift arrow from the Lamb lady and if you refuse death you get ripped to shreds by the Wolf. Whoever designed that whole concept kudos to them, it has so much depth whilst being cool.

The whole theme is "StillHere", referencing Kindred who is DeathIncarnate. Whether it's the Past (Morgana &Kayle), Present (Tryndamere), and Future (OldMan Yasuo). Death is "Still Here" no matter whattime it is. You can see Kindred in the Fires of thePast destroying Aatrox, Facing Tryndamere, andShooting a Fatal Arrow at Old Man Yasuo in thehead.

Just a fan fact about still here: The guy in the last part (tryndamere) is fighting a character who is the representation of death within the game's story (Kindred). The wolf and the sheep, never one without the other. The sheep leads those who accept death and the wolf hunts those who try to escape. It's like a regional legend. This fight references Tryndamere ultmate in the game that leaves him immortal for a few seconds. In the end, the woman who arrives (Ashe) and saves his life is his wife. AND ANOTHER FACT: They both have names referencing the riot founder and his wife. His nickname on lol was Tryndamere and his wife's name is Ashley.

[@GRIMHOOD99]

You should watch that lore video for still here because I honestly think that cinematic really shows different parts of league lore that if you play league casually you will never get because you have to go out of your way to read about it. But if you don't wanna watch it here is a really quick version. That sword pulse guy scene is in the past and he is literally corrupted godslayer that is bound to the sword and his body is just someone possessed by him. The old samurai guy scene is literally future (of possibly his last fight before dying) of one of the characters that has his own cinematic explaining a bit about him and his past. The wolf and a lamb with a bow characters are literally the grim reaper and a guy fighting them has in-game ability to be too angry to die so that entire fight is just a metaphor for him refusing to die. And the woman that saves him at the end is his wife and one of the warmothers of the northern tribes.

[@LeMonteQQ]

I think the lore explained would be cool so you can see how much actual work is put into it. And how much thought there is in it. Or even the sword/armor combination that you (surprisingly) saw so well. Definitely interested to see your vision, from a writer's perspective.

[@ChromaticCluck]

Kindred's story is beautiful, you should look up her teaser and her story in general, the still here cinematic would make way more sense as well because she appears at the end of each act of the cinematic as well.

[@gabycashy5]

15:45 calling them friends is such an understatement they are married

[@Shilin2000]

I would recommend the behind the scenes and the lore videos, you never know what may inspire you in it to add things to stories that you may be working on.

[@jonathanpizano4018]

1. Pretty much everything you see, you can do in the game as you play them, there is major difference in execution and appearance but they are using their actual abilities. Ie. You can shield yourself as Leona (Shield girl) and promptly die to a Darius ultimate because his ultimate does damage that goes through the shield. You can have vines ensnare your enemies and summon plants to block skillshots (abilities that require aim), however Ahris (foxgirl) main ability, the one she killed Zyra (plant girl) with goes through all targets hit, so effectively useless. 2. The reason Ahri giggled, is that was them trying to demonstrate her ability to charm her opponents (she's a kitsune, seduction, steal life essence), that's why her eyes glowed pink too. Now it functions different in game but that's the whole shtick. 3. 7:00 It's an anchor, he's not a shipcaptain, but he does enforce a toll on ship captains to not be destroyed in his waters. 4. 11:55 The Sword is alive and is the real figure wielding the flesh, which is why the sword has a pulse, Aatrox (Demon man) is a Darkin and they are twisted Godlike beings who were banished into their weapons, his body is a body he possessed and then took his true form. 5. 16:20 That's his wife 6. Don't play League of Legends, it's highly competitive, with a toxic community, but also addicting. Bad batch

[@skellyp7804]

[@bavo981]

Covering the ears of 'insert animalperson' is a big thing. I've noticed it way back when Inuyasha was still airing and he conveniently had hair covering that part of his face and even when there was wind blowing or whatever it would never reveal that part of his damn head. So cool that you picked up on that tho!

[@lucasbobo22]

About the pulsating sword, aatrox (the red guy) is a darkin, a living weapon possessing a human host, so that is literally his heart pulsating

[@henriklindberg1646]

Last video of the big guy fighting against a wolf and a spirit, that was tryndamere fighting against death itself, they only dissapeared because his wife showed up and killed the danger around him, which made kindred and wolf go away.

[@ionutgrasu5415]

I'm Still Here can also refer to the Kindred The Lamb Archer and Wolf, collectively known as Kindred, are the personification of Death Basically the League Grim Reaper. For those that accept their death Lamb's arrow grants them swift release For those that fight their fate Wolf chases and tears them apart. Each scene is a different place in time. The two angels (Kayle and Morgana) are fighting in the past. You can see Kindred in the flames of their sword. The demon literally cannot die and seeks to destroy all existence to erase his misery. The samurai (Yasuo) is a potential future. His country descending into war and banditry. You can see wolf's eyes shining in the trees before he accepts his death and lamb's arrow finds him. The barbarian (tryndamere) is "cursed" with a rage fueled magic that prevents his death. That is the glowing eyes and why he is directly fighting the grim reaper. I think he is still fighting the soldiers from the beginning. The scene we see is the blood magic duel against the grim reaper happening during his rage. So throughout all of time Kindred (Death) is still here. Always present and the choice is yours whether you choose the lamb or the wolf.

Burst into laughter!!! First he said "Boromir" and later "Elsa" ahahahahah excellent reaction. And if League of Legend has a wide repertoire of characters and places ♥ ♥

[@VitorMouraoddvtr]

"They're friends!" THEY'RE MARRIED AND I LOVE THEM

[@evermoreelle]

Lore video is probably worth checking out. Still Here is one of if not my absolute favorite cinematic because ive gone back a few times and noticed new things each time and its such a feel good feeling lol

[@4myzelf]

"fox girl" giggled because she has a skill to charm opponents so in the videocs context she charmed them to lead then away si they dont "finish the job"

[@SinSiricheDu]

Definitely watch the lore video! Also the blond at the end is his Wife!

[@mattburtless5783]

I think you should really do the lore behind videos especially the ones made by Necrit. He's the resident lore master of the League community. Still Here is surprisingly lore heavy for what it is.

[@auag7208]

Yes, lore explained reaction!

[@TheComander5]

Since you liked the creativity in the characters, it might be a cool thing for you to watch some character reveal trailers and stuff like that

[@karlrichardson3295]

In the past two years or so since I started watching you , I have found myself saying "be friends instead" Also Alice return to madness is my favourite game

[@DKDFury]

you should definitely watch Necrit's video on the lore on this cinematic

[@pikmints]

Some of the things shown in this video are clear references to character's abilities, some characters were updated in the years afterward, some abilities are a more "realistic" version of how an ability would work in-game, and some could arguably be a couple abilities (I will not take Riot's word as gospel). Here are roughly the things from these cinematics that you can do in-game. _______________________ *A New Dawn* - A cinematic showing what a teamfight in the map's jungle would look like in-universe, with the ending showing the survivors going towards the enemy base to destroy their Nexus and win the game. 2:51 Katarina does throw blades and leave them around the battlefield 3:17 Darius does swing his axe wildly in an arc/circle 3:28 Darius does jump up before landing his finishing blow (and his attack do cause enemies to bleed even if they don't kill) 3:32 Leona is able to imbue herself with magic to bolster her defenses 3:52 Ahri can charm enemies to lure them towards her (and away from Leona in this cinematic) 4:04 and 4:21 Draven's spinning axes are projectiles that deal huge damage 4:07 Zyra can snare enemies with roots 4:22 Graves can shoot a smokescreen to obscure enemy vision 4:35 Rengar can leap to distant enemies 4:38 Rengar can carve enemies and leave you feeling like there was nothing you could do 4:40 Graves can shoot his gun (insightful, I know) 4:51 Jax can empower his attacks via the flame he wields in his lamppost 4:55 Jax can shrug off enemy attacks 4:57 Darius can pull enemies 5:06 Zyra can miss with her root attack 5:12 Ahri can throw a rebounding ball of magic that pierces everything 5:15 Zyra can summon plants that block non-piercing projectiles 6:33 Katarina can use magic to instantaneously travel short distances to give herself an advantage 6:47 Nautilus can throw and pull back his anchor (he's a living deep sea diving suit) 7:07 Nautilus can cause shockwaves with a stomp 7:30 Nautilus can swing his anchor 7:54 [Daily Double] Nautilus can throw his anchor towards terrain to escape, and he can generate a magic shield 8:51 Leona can summon a beam of sunlight to stop enemy movement and damage them 9:05 Rengar can go invisible and sneak up on enemies 9:16 She can dash and throw magic bursts at nearby enemies ___________________________ *Still Here* - A cinematic showing the past, present, and (possible) future of 3 groups of playable characters. 11:16 Kayle can slap people with her sword 13:04 Morgana can channel magic chains to impair enemy movement and damage them 13:16 Kayle can ascend over the course of a game (and she dual-wields) 13:20 Kayle can send damaging waves at enemies by swinging her swords 14:10 Yasuo can create a windwall to block projectiles 14:19 Yasuo can slap people with wind via dashing by them 14:30 Yasuo can throw tornadoes from his sword 14:35 Yasuo can intentionally die to the enemy team 14:37 Ashe can scout by shooting a "hawkshot" from her bow (seen better at 15:58) 14:51 Kindred (both the Lamb and Wolf) can create an ominous zone where her wolf can dematerialize and rematerialize to attack enemies independently 14:55 Kindred can shoot arrows 15:17 Tryndamere is, "local man too angry to die" 15:18 Tryndamere can do a spinning slash to get closer to his target 15:23 Kindred can leap 15:36 Ashe can shoot a volley of arrows to hit multiple targets simultaneously

[@johnmack20]

if you're not familiar with the Lore, watching the lore explained will be helpful to learn about each character that appears in the film, their story telling is actually pretty good behind them all.

[@PhoenixPalmer88]

Even if you don't do a video, I'd definitely rewatch Warriors after seeing Arcane. Really cool seeing Vi and Caityln after knowing who they are.

[@deadlymouse7033]

The Lion guy reminded me of one of the characters in Blood Kin and Curses.

[@HannaHsOverInvested]

I can see that!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Thank you so much for reading.

[@hentacletentai2160]

Fun fact: the sword has a pulse is because the guy is the sword, and the body is of those who are foolish enough to touch the sword then get possessed and taken over by the sword.

[@ixarizskye5440]

"and there were friends in the end", no they are married XD 1st scene enter Tryndamere on the ground against 6 ppl, continue onto the tail end, Tryndamere is met with Wolf(the more aggressive beast) and Lamb(the one who shoots calmly). Together, Wolf and Lamb are death in 2 forms; Wolf as the you are fighting with death vibe and Lamb being more of the I accept death and will not haggle vibe. So the reason why Tryndamere is fighting with death is because he got stabbed/touched by Aatrox(I will explain that in a minute) and so when his eyes glow red, he is in an undying form, this makes Lamb curious but also before arrow girl Ashe arrives, in the undying rage form, Tryndamere has slain 4/6 men around him. When Ashe arrives, she slays the other 2 about to kill Tryndamere from behind him and this reveals that not only were there 2 men behind him, but also Tryndamere was fighting death sorta in a trans which is why he did not know or was not aware of Ashe or the other 2 men who would've killed him. So a quick lore bit between Ashe and Tryndamere, they got into an arranged marriage when Ashe was 16 and Tryndamere was a bit older. They fell in love later in the relationship so having Tryndamere in a trance and the only one that broke him free from the undying transe is his wife is just *chef's kiss*. That's how you into a couple! 2nd scene, enter the Valkyries. Meet Kayle and Morgana. Kayle is the blonde with silver and white armor and Morgana is the purple one. Another lore bit; Kayle and Morgana are twins from a God mother and a human father. They are demi-gods in angel form. Kayle liked the ideology of her mother being a cold God who only serves Justice with a sword and armor to be strong while Morgana believes in compassion like her human father and how she only needs her magic to be strong. As you can see, they are both strong but Kayle and Morgana dislike each other because of their different views of strength and priority. They drifted apart even more when their mom died and they had to duel in the sky to gain the title(but this also kills their Dad in the amount of magic waves and Dad was a normal human that got hit with a wave). So Kayle left Morgana to fulfill the duty of their mom and Morgana was left broken and she only had her magic. They grew stronger with Morgana seeing pain as a blessing and Kayle seeing her sister without a sword is a sign of weakness and dishonoring their mother. NOTE: THIS IS NOT THE SCENE THEY PART, THEY WERE PROTECTING DEMACIA BACK WHEN DEMACIA DID NOT HAVE LAWS ABOUT MAGIC YET. Who they were fighting is Aatrox, who is a corrupted god weapon. Basically he w as a powerful God warrior but was tainted with blood magic and so he gets trapped in the pulsating sword but can re-emerge once a vessel takes the sword. 3rd scene is Yasuo, at least old man Yasuo. In the present, Yasuo is a man who was accused of killing his master since he has wind and a katana and he was on guard duty but when his master was killed, he wasn't there. There is a cinematic that explains this but basically this scene is foreseen to be one of the futures of Yasuo if he would let go of the blade and wind and use it a final time to protect people. Even here at the tail end, he is not shown to be killing people, he was just knocking them unconscious and he even saved the gang leader by pushing him with wind so that Yasuo would be the only target of the rain of arrows because Yasuo would rather die than live another day knowing he used his wind and sword again. Watch Heart steel music video and the blooper video of their music video. It's fun, I swear hahaha!

[@MrFox-xr9cc]

The second story of the Video is so good. You can actually see him wrapping his left arm in wind, to deflect attacks, as well as wrapping his sword in wind, as to not kill them, but just knock them out and give them a beating.

[@auag7208]

Yas girl! No reactor ever mentioned Aatrox's sword (the actual guy) pulsating, and yes, art is so vast! I already liked you a lot, but after the hiatus period I kinda forgot why, now I see it back :)
