[@DocBree13]

Thanks! I was wondering

[@jaywithers9466]

Thank you!

[@carloscreative5538]

I dunno. There are a lot of parts of the video where Necrit assumes the audience has some knowledge of League (an assumption probably born from the fact that this channel was mostly geared toward League fanslooking for lore ) and he just rushes past some data without going really deeper into stuff like character motivations and importance. Like there are parts where he introduces a character and he's like "Of course, it's this character" and I'm like "what do you mean OF COURSE IT'S THIS CHARACTER?! I've never heard of this character in my life". I came to this video for a complete beginner's guide to LoL But this feels more like an abridged recap of all the current lore uptil now for fans who might've forgoten it. It's an effective, if compressive lore dump of the massive world of Runeterra but not a really good introduction to people who are just getting to this through Arcane. If I was a total noob, I would wonder what all of this had to do with Piltover and Zaun, with Vi & Jinx & Jayce & Caitlyn and al lthe rest of the show...because, would they not be the main characters?

If you haven't heard about it, there's actually one being animated as we speak called "Arcane". It's coming out on 2021, and it'll be based on the league universe. I don't know what exactly it'll be like, but there's a trailer out already. It looks really good so far, and the trailer was released on 2019. Speaking about animated trailers and stuff, the league cinematics are absolutely amazing.

I think it would be pretty difficult for them to get Ausol on their side, simply because he doesn't care. If Runeterra dies to the Watchers, it doesn't affect him. He can either create another Runeterra or just run away. He'd probably just be annoyed. Even though he's technically enslaved, Ausol is still reaaaaally pissed off about it. If he wanted to shut down the rift in Icathia, he certainly could. He just doesn't to tacitly throw up the middle finger at Targon. So, yeah.

So they ain't watching jack shit

[@eden4445]

I mean they could just leave runeterra alone and let the celestials close up the rifts that they're making

[@Cemhta]

This video is beyond elaborated, is extremely well made. Thank you sir, I got stuck with the idea that LoL still had bad and inconsistent Lore wandering around, but I think I might read more Lore now... I really like the importance of Bard, he is one of my favorites. I wonder what Riot thinks about this video...

[@bryceshorts5893]

celestial 1: “ok ok the humans have settled down and things may go smooth” celestial 2: “they found the world ruins” celestial 1: “they don’t even know how to use them and if they do I’m sure they will use them to fix the world” Runettera : *explosion sounds*

[@rodrigoantunes6295]

Can we give Necrit a big applause for this video?? I mean... Cmon getting together all the runeterra and league lore must be a mark!!

[@zetsuna-friedshrimp]

Not if you read a lot

[@ashb712]

The fact they announced a full fledged Runeterra mmo in the works, makes hearing about this world so much more exciting. Soon as that shit is out its goodbye Azeroth for me.

[@Crick1952]

Never played LoL because I saw a bunch of friends almost flunk out back in school because of it. Now Arcane comes out and I can feel my life being sucked into a void...

[@Ace_Angelo]

It would be jaw dropping amazing to have every league champion appear together to defend their reality like in Endgame

[@shadiafifi54]

Assuming you can get Demacians to work with Noxians, and Piltoverians with Zaunians. I mean, a conflicted world is a very interesting one, but it also makes reconciliation difficult.

[@korallyne2114]

also, not all champions exist at the same time period

[@katiemartin487]

I've always been curious of the LoL story, I've seen Arcane, and this video is really good, this lore is really cool. ❤️

[@MrRedolive]

this is so dope. Been playing league since I was a pre-teen and always believed it would make an insane cinematic experience. This video makes it feel like if Game of Thrones was in the Marvel universe, and im not mad. haha man I hope I get to see a League movie or league episodes in my lifetime.

[@Flexy59]

Have you watched arcane?

[@youwishbro7543]

Oh god please no marvel CU is actually hella corny and bad.

[@TheFortySeventhPlatoon4700]

10:55 Gnar is present during this event, "the missing link". In one of his stories, he attempts to fight the eye but then everything is frozen (by Lissandra).

[@Valican11]

Not only is the story extremely similar to that of Warcraft, Watchers (void lords), Celestials (titans), void creations (old gods) and so on, but you obviously recognised this since you used numerous WoW models and music. Love it ;)

[@Kappy25]

you will NEVER catch me playing LoL but the lore got me hooked fs after Arcane

[@DrDihydrogen]

So crazy that 3 years ago I watched this video and decided that I should give league a go, both a great thank you to Necrit for introducing to the wide expansive world of Runeterra but also a light hearted "screw you" for the league addiction that followed

[@sum1221]

10:41 How could Lissandra know their horrible forms if she’s blind lmao...

i thought the exact same , and then I imagined lissandra touching the 40 meters tall watchers when they first met to get their shapes.

To be fair, Sona is one of the oldest lore pieces. They need to either update it like the others or give her a more in depth description.

an animated serie about every region wouldn't be a bad idea

[@Kindred_Lamb]

Riot took an obvious inspiration from one of Marvel's story. From the origins of Knull the Symbiote God and his creation. He existed long before the existence of the whole universe and being awoken from the creation of the universe he got upset by it because of the Celestials creating all the light. The story of the void was also then inspired by this because of Knull creating his own army of darkness to exterminate the light of the universe, and that army would be what we now know as the Symbiotes. would like some likes so many more would know of this origin

[@paladinGay]

im not an expert on lore, legends, or religion, but based on how marvel, too, gets its ideas from other stories, im guessing this "story" has been around for a long time

[@gggarage1699]

Hahah "knull"

[@beeftestosterone5519]

Thats Mass Effect Music at the start of the story will always give me goosebumps and flashbacks, thx for that man 10/10.

[@fireemblemaddict128]

"The days of bad lore are gone." I can't agree more. A lot of the old lore was straight dog shit. Not all of it of course, but much of it was just common swill or worse. Current League lore is great with comics coming out regularly.

[@yixes9412]

Can someone track all soundtracks he is using? :D Would be appreciated :3

[@blackcatbunchie]

I just wanted to know the world history of Arcane, and this gave me so much more. Sidenote: LoL history is all about gods trying to make plans and every fucking thing went sideways

[@luzuuzzz2037]

Never played LoL, but after watching arcane I’m seriously considering. The stories and worldbuilding are incredible!

[@lozsixs9072]

Play Legends of Runeterra instead! It has a very wide variety of narratives, even more so than League of Legends. It has many characters that aren't in League of Legends, and it shows interactions of them.

[@darklordish1]

Lore has nothing to do with the game itself

[@lemonscient5083]

Tbh I just went off my favorite champions then branched off from their stories to regions etc

[@pax1913]

Imagine Riot organizing an event that actually affected the lore, like players siding with either the Void or the Celestials in teams, and the team that won would establish how the lore continues

[@grapehool]

Ok this is the greatest thing

[@integralcialbay4633]

Like the Ionia - Noxus war? That would be great.
