Stone Cold Classic 3000 - Tigerstar's Rise and Fall AMV

!!-- This is an A.M.V. (Animated Music Video) not a M.A.P. (Multi Animator Project) as in this was animated by ONE person (me :)).
One animator ≠ Multiple animators and that's why this is NOT A MAP :D --!!
WOOOOHO Finally its done!!! I started this beast in january and have worked really hard on it since then, now it has about 1500 frames and ist to date my biggest project.
I haven't read the books since somewhere in 2016 so excuse my lack of scenes ect. buuuut i didn't have enough time in the song to pack everything anyways ':D I also fumbled the editing quite a but but at this point I just wanted to get this thing done ':D
I wanted to upload it on my birthday (the 23rd) but editing took longer then expected.
OH AND THANK Y'ALL FOR 5K+ SUBSCRIBERS!!! It's so amazing how you support me and I'm forever grateful!!
So I really hope you enjoy it :))

Tigerstar's constant shit-eating grin when he's doing something nefarious is just *priceless*

[@Northflowo]

wo Okay so when I saw how much animation was in this I thought that it would be a shorter AMV, Scourge scene comes in and I'm fully prepared for the video to end there BUT THEN IT KEPT GOING, god tier

[@Rose-df2vq]

[@rowdy-cowpoke]

this is INCREDIBLE. the animation is so dynamic and Tigerstar’s evil grins are extremely good. also that part with Brightpaw, Swiftpaw, and the dogs, turning into Tigerstar’s teeth? chills. this is legitimately a masterpiece

[@cendregaming3200]

Ok, this is amazing. One detail that impressed me was actually the inclusion of Jayfeather in the final battle actually doing a field dressing. That design for him is awesome and it’s nice to see that some animators doesn’t forget Meddies actually work while the fighting is going on

[@Luyeshin]

Thank you so much!!!

[@qpix7427]

DUDE! It’s doesn’t even make sense how amazing your animation is. Like I can’t- I don’t even know what to say your just amazing

OMFG I THOUGHT THIS WAS A MAP OH MY GOD THIS IS AMAZING!!!!!!!!

[@alphaareus]

I couldn't keep my eyes off this,, for a single. second. The animation and symbolism is brilliant and honestly,,, we NEED more stuff like this.

[@Luyeshin]

Awwwwww thank youuuu ;w;

[@frosted-bird8740]

1:16 That smirk from Tigerstar is everything- I freaking love this, so much dedication and the details are SO BEAUTIFUL- like the way the StarClan cat had held Tigerstar's head so that Firestar could strike the killing blow. THIS IS A MASTERPIECE

[@Luyeshin]

Hahaha thank you so much!!!! :))))

[@KrunchyKatSandwich]

0:37 that walk did something to me... Actually this whole animation is absolutely spectacular

[@giingersnaps]

This is so impressive!!! Your animations is so smooth and dynamic!! I especially love how you showed Swiftpaw’s death, and how when Firestar slashed Tigerstar’s ghost in the throat, you could see starclan cat’s paws also next to his. Super cool little details! Hope this gets popular!

[@Luyeshin]

Aaaaaa thank you so much!!! :)))

[@EeveeDragonXD2000]

Your right!

[@voideitii]

THIS IS SICK!!!!! This inspired the same awe and inspiration that I used to get as a kid watching warriors videos.. thank you so much for making this! Definitely gonna be watching over and over again!!

[@Luyeshin]

O lord thank you so much!! ;A;

[@Hellsfawn]

WELL THIS WAS JUST 3 WHOLE MINUTES OF PURE EYECANDY!! So many action filled scenes that just made my jaw drop, it's all just so fluid and fits the timing of the song so well! I ain't gonna lie I went back multiple times to watch some scenes on slow mo because I was *baffled* on how the hell they moved the way they did. :0c Incredible work dude!

[@Luyeshin]

Welp this is the comment that made my confidence shoot over the roof. I’m scared about what I might do with this newfound power Really THank youuuu ;-; it means a lot coming from someone who animates like they worked for Disney

[@moonmaskedpoet7221]

I love the way Tigerstar’s eye lingers as he fades away. I had to rewatch that on quarter speed just to appreciate the way his face goes from the battle adrenaline to shock and pain, a moment of actual fear of dying again, then into a cool hatred as you know he’s making eye contact with Firestar until the last moment of his existence. The way you managed to get that all in just a few seconds is breathtaking!

[@Luyeshin]

Your name is the most fitting name I’ve ever seen That was hella poetic

[@Luyeshin]

Hey everyone!! Just wanted to thank you all for your amazing comments. Y‘all have made my day countless times with your compliments and I’m just so pumped to hear so much positive feedback for my work ;-; Seriously I love you all and I hope I can continue to deliver content you can enjoy just like this one ;a; I am completely floored by this reaching 100k views in such a short amount of time and I just can’t put in words how happy I am Thank you all

[@havesomehotcocoa8076]

The thing I especially love is you include a lot of the forgotten moments. For example not many people remember that when Fireheart was running from the dogs Tigerstar was there. He attacked Fireheart and was there for Bluestars death. Its sad how not many people remember that or they just dont include it in their things. Either way amazing work I love everything about this!

[@Luyeshin]

Thank you so much!!! I had hoped that those details make this more unique in the community :,)

[@crowla]

Oh my god this is unbelievably good!!! I can't even fathom how much work is in this, it looks amazing dude!

[@Luyeshin]

Aaaa thank you!!

[@dogsocks252]

Dovewing’s eye, the teeth transforming in Tigerstar’s, the StarClan cat hold Tigerstar’s head up and leaving his throat open to attack, the SHING! noise that lines up with Brambleclaw grabbing the fox trap’s metal thingy…this is 100%, through and through a MASTERPIECE. I love the fact is doesn’t just stop after he’s killed, but keeps going and shows his lasting effect! Its awe inspiring. This video-and you-deserve every ounce of the praise.

[@Luyeshin]

Awwwww thank you so much!!

[@leilabarber6248]

I like the thought that TigerStar would’ve been able to kill FireStar if it weren’t for the Star Clan cat who held him still. It just matches with the “only Scourge can kill me unless they have the help of a much more powerful cat ( A dead cat ). This AMV was pretty much the definition of perfect and I loved the use of the song and a personal map for TigerStar. Love your work!

[@ghostgirl818]

I really, REALLY love 1:43 where, for just the briefest moment, Tigerclaw actually looks scared and maybe just a little bit regrets what he's done, before deciding "fuck it."

[@lycanroc2259]

I must say that “the blind ambition” line was perfect for TigerStar. This whole anim was great, loved it!

[@allhailthesnail5017]

Wow, another blessing of an amv in the warriors fandom. All your expressions and fight scenes are so fluid, all the scenes blend so easily to the next. This is so fun and snappy! You really captured the way I remember tiger star in the books, all his cocky grins and brutal murders. I especially love how the dog teeth snap on the beat as well, dont mind me just gonna re watch this a billion times lol

Ok so I know that like I’m a nobody and stuff but. WOAH THIS IS INCREDIBLE! The animation and the ART. I keep rewinding and pausing to just take it all in. The designs are so beautiful and original. And they aren’t like those simple designs, no, that probably was a pain to animate. I don’t think u understand how amazing this is to EVERYONE! 🤯

[@Stormwolf4]

I keep coming back to this video and just keep staring awe struck at the animation. One thing I noticed after rewatching it so many times, besides the beginning, Firestar/heart almost never smiles and almost always has a stern cold look on him. Idk if this is planned, but it does sorta show how Tigerstar really only saw him like that. Never as a young hopefully cat, but just a thorn in his side throughout his whole life.

[@Luyeshin]

Oh wow you’re the first one that noticed! I wanted to give him underlying villain-vibes because the story’s told out of tigers perspective ;)
