Darius being Darius and Swain Being Swain... This is so much better than their old portrait of noxus being a obvious villain

[@blackknightjack3850]

I dunno. They still seemed to retain a little bit of villainy in that they don't mind if they overwork the citizens of Delverhold. After all, their position was always going to be "No, we won't reduce your workload".

[@DarkLordRevan38]

@@blackknightjack3850 The whole point is, they don't really care about how much work there people do, as Swain pointed out, they hadn't worked a day in their lives. Noxus even made them exempt from providing soldiers for their hard work in the mines. This was all about them wanting a much bigger cut from Noxus and thought they could get away with it because of the new leadership, it has nothing to do with how much work the people do.

[@maskimgalgo2046]

@@blackknightjack3850 but both Swain and Darius work the shit out of themself Darius was once an orphan and through alot of suffering and killing did he became and remain to be the hand of noxus Swain got his hand cut and had to take down a tyrant to secure his dominance Swain

[@Daal169]

Oh man, I really like the way Riot is porteying Noxus in the latest lore updates. It escapes the cliche conqueror-villain thingy and sheds light to a more greyish way of culture and governing. Most interesting!

[@blackknightjack3850]

What concerns me is they're drifting it towards Noxus being TOO good. They're going to need to remind people that Noxus is still a fascistic imperialistic society that you probably wouldn't want to live in.

The Iona Invasion helps remember it. A lot.

I didn't read it simply cause i knew Nekrit's gonna make it better so i just won't read it to not spoil it, and GOD i was right.

[@eric2ill4u]

“The Faceless” who stands for guile is clearly LeBlanc.

[@BoostedMonkey05]

Even though she's a black rose

[@LilSealboi]

In legends of runeterra, there’s a Noxus spell card that’s called “Guile” and it shows a statue of LeBlanc

[@AlligatorSauce9984]

Cause red herrings were a myth created by the lizard people

[@odysskon8127]

Could be, could be not. Who knows?

[@eric2ill4u]

Jonathan Dee Yes. They heavily imply it. The “Guile” card in Legends of Runeterra is a statue of LeBlanc.

[@profhastings8029]

Would be nice if at the end of each one of these videos you would talk a bit about the references and hints given in the story. For example: Darius‘ reaction when swaim was talking about the priority of the empire over family being a reference to darius‘ love for that one woman that he had to abandon for the empire

[@zhaochengzhong8982]

Excellent narration. I’ve listened to it more than twice! Now I review it I realized that Alyssa actually demonstrates the three principles at the end. Might when she was determined to rule Delverhold. Vision when she knows the true purpose her father sends her, and what to do afterward. Guile when she tells Swain, Darius, and LB that she knowingly kills her brother for the good of the empire.

[@VarysPeterFilms]

Really nice video, Necrit! Have been waiting for this since the story dropped, since I'm lazy to read... But I've got a suggestion: next time, try to look for a voice actor. The voice modification you did was well done, don't misunderstand me, and your voice fit with Swain pretty nicely, but not so much Darius'. There must be dozens of talented people with different voice tones in your Discord server, and I'm sure there would have been at least one person who has a rusty, deep voice that would fit Darius perfectly. It's more work, of course, but I think it would make the viewer's (listener's) experience ten times better, since it would be like literally watching a stage play.

[@treanyo]

I have a deep voice, and the roughness of a smoker. Also a trained ex-voice actor and stage (theater) actor. Maybe I can do the deeper voices for our homie necrit

[@TaRekCRafT]

[@eierdooier3579]

I simply do not understand why you're not at 500K subs yet, or even more. I enjoy your videos and they're the reason I actually got deeper into the lore. Thanks to you I now know way more about the lore than when I started playing league ages ago. I'm so happy that there is someone that is actually able to explain and tell about the lore, unlike some that only tell parts of it or just downright lies and theories that turn out to be false. I hope you enjoy creating these videos as much as I love watching them. A big thanks and good luck in the future! ~ Egg (yes, that is how my friends call me on league and several other platforms xD)

[@AK56xXx]

he don't have too many subs cause 80% of league players don't care about lore , maybe this will change in the future.

[@GlueEater-ix9gl]

Well that would be accurate

[@randonymous8054]

Omg “duty to the empire must always overshadow duty to family”, the reason why Darius looked a bit darker was because of his daughter. Remember swains interactions with Darius. Darius must’ve killed his own daughter

[@phantom6014]

His daughter killed his ex-wife

[@orewajackkuripper1204]

Read this story a few days ago and loved it. Loved it even more hearing you read through it!

[@ThisYoko]

Wow, that was a great story. Probably one of my favorites ones.

[@PacopicooftheDuty]

So the masked figure is either a new champion or LeBlanc's rework. I'd rather take the new champ and send LeBlanc into oblivion, god damn I hate her.

[@kusadasi8641]

why think its le blanc??

[@nicodecamp9533]

The third is a master of deception and thats what leblanc is. A master of deception.

[@evergreen9376]

I like the idea of having them not be a champion, but have champions that either work for them or know and mention them

[@ultimsing]

I dont think Leblanc fit since she hate Swain, she is against the trifarix and she most likely want war and chaos in runeterra while Swain want peace through domination

[@enkidu1623]

i don't think she hates swain since she helped him reach the title of grand general in the first place after they brought darkwill down. i think someone from the black rose is the third figure,most likely leblanc or vlad but even tho they changed vlad's lore to make him more influent in noxus and gave him some mind control powers and stuff i don't see him as that third figure more than leblanc.

What would the movie be about ? Think about it. If any champ died ppl that main them would be pissed.

[@marlonsanchez7504]

Mr.Vojtik well, to be fair lol already has a massive lore and world building, whereas most movie games came from games with almost no lore/history to them (Mario, Street fighter, mortal kombat, etc.) Granted that could be something working against the movie because in a universe so deep and big as lol's, where would/could movie fit in?

[@LucianC137]

Because all video game movies SUCK

[@Leivve]

Simple answer is don't have any of the league champions as leads. Have them as secondary characters and supporting cast. They might influence the string of events the lead has to deal with, but the story itself isn't about some political displays of authority between Viktor and Swain for example. The story focus on a guy simply looking for revenge on Draven.

[@arturbabajev7936]

This is just so amazing,I feel mad after that, this is epic!

I doubt the blackrose would actually be in power, especially since Swain refers to her as an enemy. Leblanc also doesn't seem like someone to want to hold a position of power, the leader might have connection to her, and lets her influence noxus in ways she couldn't behind the curtain, but she wouldn't actually come out from behind the curtain.

[@shadowofoblivion7233]

Eric Graccus she lacked the confidence and drive to rule like her brother and father. nor did she have the backbone to defy or haggle with Noxus,unlike her brother or father who didn't wanted to be on a leash she knew her place and was constantly intimidated. so Swain deemed her a worthy pawn to put on the throne, one that will abide to fear as even seen of how she killed her own brother to gain favor with swain for herself,she will know her place. so yeah a female is fitted to rule their its obvious why Swain would want her to rule.
