HE IS THE STORM
He is big
Imagine they add the seal sister
THAT IS APPROACHING
HE SPLITS MOUNTINS WITH HIS ROAR
It was time
"What is water but ice that is weak" and "The show is red from our foes" is some ruthless dialog from the champ I love it.

Its an interaction I didn't know I needed until we got it!!!
Same....

except when they made janna black, that is disrespectful to her original design
she's originally from Shurima so it makes sense plus it's not even fully black, she was too old anyhow@@Mig32

1: it showcases her origins as a shuriman spirit beter.

This might be my favorite champion reveal ever. The music, the animations, the voice lines, omfg.
Biggest win of this trailer is that they used his theme song, I'm going to rewatch this 50 times
That Valhir theme song is just so good
9 mana… he’s better than I hoped for ❤️
And can be reduced by his landmark
Freljord has plenty of cards that give mana gems, so it isn't that bad
*see Hard Ramping + his landmark signature*
I think it not that hard.
Freljord can ramp mana and cost is reduced by landmark that he is not play at turns 9 for sure
as a volibear main, I love this
new lore is always nice

HE LOOKS FREAKING AMAZING! This is what I wanted to see from voli!
From the card design,the music drop at the right moment to the animation it’s just holy flock
The LOR team really out done themselves this time
Nilah: *Fights a lightning god with water*
Volibear: *Shocks her through the water*
Aatrox: "What kind of a fool would build a strategy on that idea?"
Her water is a primordial demon and one of the ten but now i wonder if it also has properties of a regular water 🤔
Her first mistake was that she thinks she is the god killer.
@@aatroxtheworldender933 ok aatrox very cool but i guess you do have a point because her boat goes to SI at the end of the trailer so maybe she is dead 🌝

He's so COOL.
as a volibear main, you got me back into playing this card game :D
Volibear officially gets my vote for most badass line spoken during a level up animation.
"When all is dark and cold, I SHALL REMAIN!"
Finally, the PRIMAL GODS TRIO I S COMPLETE. THANK YOU LOR!
I love how their costs and stats reflect how strong they are, can’t wait to see Mordekaiser!
Not really... Asol's stats would be a lot higher if so, and most gods too, Naut's would be lower, Nilah's would be a lot higher too, etc
Morde and fiddle are gonna be insane
So Nasus is still the strongest of them all.

This Demi God battle between Janna and Volibear wrapped up by this epic song gave me the CHILLS.
Janna is a goddess right?
@@leleskine She is the embodiment of the wind spirit.
@@leleskineyeah she is worshipped as such. She gains power from worship and prayers, so ye she is essentially a spirit god.

All hail Volibear!
I cant wait to see his interraction with Orrn
big bear go brrrrrrrrrrr (because he's big but also because it's cold)
I totally forgot they gave volibear his own theme when they did his rework, I’ve gotta listen too the whole song again now
Well, can’t say it’s a surprise but glad he’s here finally

The art for Volibear is inspired. Amazing work
Idc if hes a demigod, i WILL pet him.
^ rip this guy, their hubris was too much and they were eaten by some giant bear
I'm so glad they used his theme song
Hyped af to play his decks, but one thing I noticed is that Nilah is going to Shadow Isles at the end of the video, so maybe next exp we get Yorick or Karthus !
I live for the day when Yorick gets the LoR treatment since LoL spits on the champ constantly
Amazing music and champion
I just wanted him to be cool and the team delivered in spades! I'm so excited to finally get another one of my mains in LoR!
That levelup animation is majestic.
THEIR ANCESTORS STUCK BETWEEN MY TEETH
God i hope voli is in the path of champions
He is in the poc. Finally we get something good from freijord
Shes heading to the Shadow Isles. Wonder if we're getting a surprise 4th champ or if this is a teaser for the next set.
This one is called Fate's Voyage: Onward, so I'm guessing next set is a continuation of the voyage kinda like they did with the darkin sets.
@@felizpandaI hoped for Karthus but maybe next Set.
@@felizpandaimagine she goes after fiddlesticks at the end of her saga

Make sense now
One of my favorite champs has arrived today!
Kinda wished his level up was better than what he got, but I'll take it, he looks like he's gonna be fun
who are you how did you get in my house
Better than galio tho
The line delivery elevates it, otherwise it's fine
compared to ryze he has normal levelup
Hes attacking Nilah so that's cool
STORM UNLEASHED
Love love love the viking music! hope olaf comes soon
You won something 🎁
Once again, Freljord champs have the best themes collectively
His siblings ( Ornn and Anivia ) already in LOR. Now finally himself arrives LOR
Only the seal sister is left so she might be an exclusive champion of freliod in future expansion
2:04 no... was that the shadow isles? Is the meme gonna finally be realized? Are we FINALLY getting Fiddle!?
I know this is about Volibear, but Nilah looks badass looking up at him during his level-up animation.
I DIDNT EVEN SEE HER THE FIRST TIME UNTIL READING THIS LMAO she looks dope
that also struck me as an amazing view! truly she is the giant slayer she is supposed to be from her lore
All I could think is how truly ridiculous it would be for a mortal to face a demigod. Demon weapon or not.
nilah has no personality
@@defalt_6427 thats the point of her, the demon took her memories in exchange for strenght, she can't have a real personality because the only emotion shes allowed to feel and express is unending joy

I love Volibears music.
Finally, a 9 mana champion.
HE IS THE STORM THAT IS APPROACHING
I love freljord themes
Its Volibear theme
A thousand storms,
A thousand scars,
With his might, it goes past,
With every height, moves his sight,
The Relentless Storm, Volibear...
With the whole demi-god set complete, I expect there will be interactions between Volibear, Ornn & Anivia.

Meanwhile Tryndamere’s ability is to take 4 extra damage before dying.
Well, if you doesn't count the +1/+1 from champions level up, Darius's flip is just a Twin Disciplines.
Shadow Isles next? Could it be Yorick, Karthus or Vex..? Man that's a full of surprise...
Yorick as another mist user? Karthus and Deathless or Vex (I have no clue what she could do, maybe Fear?)
@@dastark_3024or Yorick can summon random ephemeral unit, you knew he could boost the Shadow Isles unit since Shadow Isles got many ephemeral unit. For Vex I'm pretty sure she just a 2.0 Lux that get have advantages after play a few spells...

With him can we expect some Voli, Ornn, Anivia sibling decks?
As much as I wish it were so, neither Anivia nor Ornn are titanic units, and I think they're too expensive to play in the same deck.
Literally watched a fanmade LoR Voli reveal yesterday and the real one dropped today.
Riot can create the most OP skills ever and yet they will be stopped by certain pink region
Relentless storm is cast 3 times so Ionia would need 3 denies to cancel it
