League of Legends: Arcane “Enemy” orchestral cover done by @Samuel Kim Music: https://youtu.be/4b78xc2YeXA

Viego art done by the excellent @FootballHead

This is probably the longest and most passionate video I ever have and probably ever will make. League has been such an important part of my life, and I would absolutely hate to see everything Riot has built thrown down the drain. League isn’t just a MOBA anymore, it’s so much more.

EXTRA special thanks to @yakkocmn for his bigass collab section as well as a HUGE thanks to all my fellow content creators for collaborating with me and making this video possible.

  1. Riot: makes fucking masterpieces of stories and lore, expanding on horizons some companies are afraid to do because of their lack of touch from their higher ups

    Also Riot: insert a picture of a dumpster fire here

  2. Legends of Runeterra is the only thing (before arcane) that made me have hope that they would do their characters justice, Runeterra is an awesome universe, I don't know how they are just now realizing it.

  3. The League community really likes to shit on Riot's management and the people working on League's gameplay. (Which, let's be honest, is completely justified, especially after "200 years of collective game design experience" and "we don't think our champions are overloaded overall", and let's not mention all the nasty stuff that has been happening at Riot HQ.)
    But we have to realize that literally everyone else at Riot are working their hearts out, and boy does it show (if they get resources and time, that is). Riot has managed to put out some amazing things, and all this wonderful lore, art and just generally amazing new content makes me so happy that I've actually allowed my friends to drag me into League.

    The video was wonderful, as usual, and I wish Riot would give you LPP, cus they'd be so much better off if they actually listened to you.
    The only thing I slightly disagreed with is when you (or rather, Yakko) talked about how people don't pick characters based on what they do in game, but only based on their characters themselves. I feel like that doesn't apply to as many people as you think, because metaslaves run absolutely rampant in pretty much every competitive game, and the only thing those guys care about is "which character is the easiest to win and get free LP with". They're basically the kids that say "I want the best superpower" instead of coming up with an interesting idea when playing superheroes.
    There are several people that aren't like this, but they're not the kind to play ranked for 8 hours straight every day, so they don't exactly make up the majority of the League games (even though they probably make up the majority of the people that have tried League at some point in their lives).

  4. that disclamer at the beginning even could be a whole video on itself lol.
    People are shitting on Riot Games because one Rioter raped a woman, when the people should blame the guy who did it, not Riot Games.
    Well it is a fucked up thing, but holy shit twitter users are annoying when they don't use 1% of their braincells

  5. I want to thank you for the quality of this video, that you use humor to make all the negative point you make easily watchable yet still give good recommendations for Riot to grow, and like someone said 'Lore matter'.

  6. you know funny stuff i experience,
    my friend group never ever know what league is. whenever i talk about "there is game name league of legend" they just laugh and no response after that.

    but when arcane come, first they dont want to watch because there are still many things they want to watch and arcane just like similar action anime.

    but one particular person i try to make him watch arcane. he just ask me "you sure it is good stuff?". i just can say "try it", atleast after you dont have anynore to watch. and after few hours, he say "after some episode, i search on youtube about lore when i dont understand or miss something"

    that, that is one moment i want to treasure until i die. that prove me rito can do something good even they make a mess in league.
    and prove , runetera is legit universe and anyone, ANYONE, can enjoy it even they dont know about league at all

  7. great fucking video. I've already been banished from giving show recommendations because its always just arcane. I can't wait for more lore to be shown

    Also I would really enjoy a Paragon like lol game… anyone else?

  8. I remember league of legends.
    I remember. 12 years of sleepless nights on comms with randoms trying a new bronze bravery build, going 1% crit chance or full gold generation runes, trying new champ releases, falling in love with the lore and the constant updates and the new friends I made. Runeterra has so far to go and league has done an amazing job of that.

  9. League stopped being fun to many people because it only offers you to play rank game most of the time
    there should be always have an available rotating game mode all the time
    because clearly not everyone is a sweaty gamer and just want to have fun
    and opening league knowing that you can only play a rank game is not fun

  10. I looked at Mattthew Garcia-Dunn twitter and is full of twitter cancel culture activism.
    But when he is fired, its sad? Fuck that scumbag, let him get a taste of his own medicine on what it feels to be randomly terminated.

  11. Please dont praise the morde rework.
    They made him from an actual Unique and Skillfull champ, with an actual Unique look to a shitty Sauron ripoff that is Just an AP Darius that skipped leg day, while removing a ton of sadism from his lore and brutalness in favor of "Me not total Ooga Booga, but still somewhat Ooga Booga"
    Sure, they did Murder Aatrox too, but atleast New Aatrox has something that can be considered as "Quality" and i would rather see him as a Big bad Guy, than AP Darius who stole the Glorious name, of the King of Metal.
