It's actually been confirmed that this is a younger version of Darius. The version we have in the game is older and already one of the leaders of Noxus, here he's just a commander or so.
agreed, i personally have a lot of lore knowledge,so i didnt exactly learn much (i learned something about arm muscles lol), but reacts are so much more interesting when the reacting person can actually input something and doesnt just say "wow" all the time
Dude as a Lore fan I LOVE this cinematic. Not only is the quality amazing, but this cinematic is PERFECT for integrating Arcane with the current LoL lore with the perfect amount of obscurity. And seeing Necrit's video of this is just **chefs kiss**.
question for you my friend. The symbol that formed out of shadows where LB and Vlad where was the darkin blade where naafiri is sealed? Or something like that?
the reactions I expected from everyone. Like, it was such a big thing, probably my favorite moment from any riot cinematic. The song drop, the ASMR of grunting and punching, just raw asf. Representing Noxus the best there. Disappointed few reactors got as hyped.
Nah, it's a setup. Black Rose was testing Katarina's power/skills to see if she could be useful for them or something like that. LeBlanc was aware of everything happening which is why she is portrayed as the eye watching the masquerade ball and also painting all the events included in the cinematic with some kind of black ink looking magic (Kata is symbolized as the assassin with a cape figure being cornered by a spider) while Elise was sent there in person.
@@921Ether Nah. The whole thing of about Black Rose and especially LeBlanc is manipulation/puppeteering and deceiving. They love to test and mess with you in creative ways, for example Mel's capture in Arcane. Katarina's grins because she THINKS she succeeded the mission but that guy probably doesn't even matter to Black Rose and they just wanted to test her potential more in person therefore Elise is there "defending" the guy.
Man this cinematic describes top lane perfectly, we have the other champs having music and cinematic moments in noxus, meanwhile Darius and trundle get no music and are in a whole different region freljord.
I interpreted Katarina smiling at Elise as like a show of respect for her strength, like “damn that was a good fight”. The whole video is about showing how Noxus heavily values strength so it’s natural for someone from that culture to have this appreciation for battle
This is a past, present and future type stuff. With Darius and Mel (past, present) they haven't attacked Ionia yet. The one with the Black Rose is in the current League lore so would be the future in terms of Mel and her story which I assume the Noxus TV show will pick up on. This would happen before the Ionian War still.
Katarina is smiling because she got a kill in Midlane. At 3:25 he started to gank Kata. But Kata had a ward and saw him, so she baited him and did W+E+R Combo. 3:34 you can see and hear how the dudes chain broke because she cut through. At 3:55 you see him lay on the ground. Thats why she did the emote.
btw she is elise, elise its part of the black rose and she was Assigned to invite new people to recruit to this festival, so yeah nothing that some makeup and a mask cannot change
7:42 Darius is invading the freljord currently, this is before swain comes back from ionia with his demon arm, so boram darkwill is still king of Noxus, for the 1v1 it was probably for the territory that Trundle is protecting, they 1v1 so nobody else had to die, just one of them(as for Trundle being dragged out it probably wasn't to the death). as for swains absence he's currently trapped in Ionia, i doubt he will be in the first season since the first will most likely be used as the setup for his grand reveal and will probably follow Darius and his return to Noxus, Mels story progression, Leblanc and Vladimir(since it was lablanc who aided in swains exile and the start of the war in Ionia) and maybe Singed and Orianna because singed has a big role to play with the war in Ionia too.
Feeling the same about this video. Nobody knows lore or either these champs. May I suggest you? Use subtitles, but there's one lore informed ppl. CoolLifeGame. His reaction, lovely as well.
Damnnn, Naayil knows his lore, one more reason to like this based aatrox streamer! But i do prefer this elise makes more sense she is a seducer the mask makes her more mysterious but elegant, the normal elise makes people run lmao.
7:58 yoo necrit explained whats going on lorewise and some rioter confirmed that this darius is darius in his younger years and he will get bigger eventually
If you wonder why Vlad looks different everytime, Necrit explained it's because he younger himself again and again so his face and hair changes often For Elise, her skin is canon, like other black rose skin (more like what if but still canon) And Darius is skinnier because he's younger
2:50 Darius grabs the axe and it freezes the part of his neck that's being torn apart by the troll. Which I think bought enough time so Darius could charge up that last swing. Really good intention to detail there from league.
It looks so god damn good. Not still here levels but its damn good. The barren hills with a lot of snow look a lot like norway imo. Think that fits with being close to the border of noxus/freljord.
Arcane is canon and so is this, and so are the skins shown at the black rose ball This could mean we're gonna see darius come up through the ranks as they kinda retell the story of noxus a bit, like this could be when darius becomes a legend of noxus
The motif at the end is the symbol of Atakhan, a demon linked to Mordekaiser, it seems that Noxus will have as its plot the awakening of Morde, that and probably Swain.
I think the last insignia are the demons sign. There is a big drawing with that same design with fiddlesticks at the top with the rest of the type of demons all over

No way some people call "Young" Darius "small" He is a literal fucking unit and he is just a human fighting a literal cave troll with a special ice imbued magic weapon. Who went in with 100% bravery and courage. Older darius must be a fearsome lad.
don't know you'll see this but to expain what is happenning. At this time Noxus is going to Freljord for something. It is seven years before Jericho Swain takes over Noxus so Darius is much younger. If the trolls are not fighting it's because they act like a pack of wolf, Trundle is the alpha so if he loses, all the trolls know they would loose. Hope that helped.
idk when lorewise, but Darius has a lover and >maybe< kids at one point but Noxus has them killed (i guess he doesn't know it was Noxus, i dont remember) and bro hits the grind so goddamn hard he gets like %50 bigger xD
0:43 MA BOY IS COOKING! Ah finally. A league player who knows enough about lore to understand what's going on. A note for you! The broken axe of Darius can be found in top lane in new map, 100% sure you already noticed.
Just saw your incredible performance in Vladimirs big strong russian man dating shootout and I'm proud to say that me, an Austrian, gets the honor of having another Austrian win Vladimir to himself
I mean, Freljord is just next above Noxus, the Region bolder is close. Not surprised if Trundle came to invade Noxus. Actually nothin special in Freljord beside freezing cold ever Winter, and some Traditional Tribal... And Demigods
This Darius is a young version, thats why he is more "Skinner" And the fught maybe was one of the many times trols want to do shit, like trying to pick up a fight with noxus going to their frontiers Or its noxus doing this trying to get into the trols territory
Bro hype tf up, we might be getting aatrox animated sooner than we expect, the picture on the wall at the end looks like aatrox as his blade. The link could be to vladimir and the threat of them returning.

"Top laner reacts" like he isnt known for being the aatrox man
that's exactly what i thought lol
its for people who came from arcane ig, bit pointless if you ask me but oh well
real life aatrox reacts
Well he's not a top tier player, and not even a top aatrox player. Makes more sense to just say top main.
He is the only person ive seen to be that hyped to see darius and trundle, true top main lol
It's actually been confirmed that this is a younger version of Darius. The version we have in the game is older and already one of the leaders of Noxus, here he's just a commander or so.
This is when he was a general and Boram Darkwill was still the Grand General of Noxus, yea
did riot said this in their developer video thing?
young darius beating trundle is insane to me
@@Attackplaya no, but a riot member did say this on Reddit
@Max78000 I mean by this logic it was young Darius beating young Trundle, so it seems a bit more likely. Also it was VERY close
nayil knowledge of the lore surprise me , unlike other league streamers , he seems to know a lot , my respect for him is now higher than ever !
agreed, i personally have a lot of lore knowledge,so i didnt exactly learn much (i learned something about arm muscles lol), but reacts are so much more interesting when the reacting person can actually input something and doesnt just say "wow" all the time
The lore is more entertaining than the game itself
On that we agree my friend@@GrahhhhHH6hhhhHhHh
he didn't main aatrox for nothing

well said fellow lore nerd!
I was afraid they were going to do noxus dirty like they did zaun and piltover but i am feeling confident now
@@PeachDragon_ tf you mean "did dirty"
question for you my friend. The symbol that formed out of shadows where LB and Vlad where was the darkin blade where naafiri is sealed? Or something like that?
They're leaving big daddy Swain for later, when he does appear shit is gonna get real _for real_
You actually can see how he would look if u want ... just search swain league of legends cinematic ... its a short video
And mordekaiser, he needs to react to the new animated comic
Yeah whenever you see Swain it means things are getting crazy for you
Notice how they animated Darius missing his punch at Trundle, realistic fight where the attacks ain't hitting all the time
Not gonna lie, Naayil and Spearshot had an awesome reaction to the Trundle and Darius fight!
the reactions I expected from everyone. Like, it was such a big thing, probably my favorite moment from any riot cinematic. The song drop, the ASMR of grunting and punching, just raw asf. Representing Noxus the best there. Disappointed few reactors got as hyped.
7:30 She smiling cuz she killed the target and Elise failed
Also cuz i think her main task was to entice some sort of reaction from the black rose, and she got exactly that by forcing elise to transform
i think drawing out elise's spider form may have been the objective. her smile kinda feels like a "gotcha"
Nah, it's a setup. Black Rose was testing Katarina's power/skills to see if she could be useful for them or something like that.

@@Luunacyy The ink seems to indicate that she was meant to fall for a trap planned by the Black Rose, considering that Kat's family supports Swain.
7:50 It's not unheard of for the leaders of two armies to beat up its other to settle a battle in behalf of their soldiers
Man this cinematic describes top lane perfectly, we have the other champs having music and cinematic moments in noxus, meanwhile Darius and trundle get no music and are in a whole different region freljord.
Also many many many, punches
The fight of who can stat check who
a dogfight
darius was younger here so thats why he looks like a "teenager" XD necrit broke down the whole thing lorewise if ure intrested
4:56 no bro he is malphite
Renekton
Blud you can't see it clearly? Based on the skin color that was totally Lucian
Um its Teemo
ITS NEEEKOO
I interpreted Katarina smiling at Elise as like a show of respect for her strength, like “damn that was a good fight”. The whole video is about showing how Noxus heavily values strength so it’s natural for someone from that culture to have this appreciation for battle
It's clearly a mocking "lmao I still got the kill ff15" smile
*darius vs trundle fight*
I guess this is how spearshot sees his fight against the gorilla
8:33 if they let darius hit 5 hits with his weapon he would just guillotine everyone 🥴
can't wait for the dumbs video where trundle takes bleed ticks as he gets carried away and flashes red like minecraft poison ticks
Darius actually hits trundle 5 times in this scene (with his arms, but still...)
no he wasn't level 6 yet its young darius
If Darius is in the Freljord, They haven't invaded Ionia.
If they haven't invaded Ionia, Swain's arm is still intact and demonless.
This is a past, present and future type stuff. With Darius and Mel (past, present) they haven't attacked Ionia yet. The one with the Black Rose is in the current League lore so would be the future in terms of Mel and her story which I assume the Noxus TV show will pick up on.

Best comment here
The way NAAYIL smiles like a little kid on Christmas Eve watching Darius and trundle beat each other up
Vlad is constantly changing his appearence, getting younger older etc. This is very much in line with the previous canon
although the fight was great but they did trundle dirty he's supposed to be like 10ft tall as shown in the ryze animation.
btw she is elise, elise its part of the black rose and she was Assigned to invite new people to recruit to this festival, so yeah nothing that some makeup and a mask cannot change
Why is she in the black rose? isnt she from shadow isles?
@tryfergoodra552 nope she is from noxus and got her power from the vilemaw
7:42 Darius is invading the freljord currently, this is before swain comes back from ionia with his demon arm, so boram darkwill is still king of Noxus, for the 1v1 it was probably for the territory that Trundle is protecting, they 1v1 so nobody else had to die, just one of them(as for Trundle being dragged out it probably wasn't to the death).
as for swains absence he's currently trapped in Ionia, i doubt he will be in the first season since the first will most likely be used as the setup for his grand reveal and will probably follow Darius and his return to Noxus, Mels story progression, Leblanc and Vladimir(since it was lablanc who aided in swains exile and the start of the war in Ionia) and maybe Singed and Orianna because singed has a big role to play with the war in Ionia too.
i think they bringing darkins into the next series
DON'T try to gaslight him 😭🙏

Best reaction that i have ever seen. He knows something and this is so good. %90 of the reactions to the video are meaningless.
Feeling the same about this video. Nobody knows lore or either these champs. May I suggest you? Use subtitles, but there's one lore informed ppl. CoolLifeGame. His reaction, lovely as well.
@grimoluden2693 thk u i'll watch.
Damnnn, Naayil knows his lore, one more reason to like this based aatrox streamer! But i do prefer this elise makes more sense she is a seducer the mask makes her more mysterious but elegant, the normal elise makes people run lmao.
5:34 It just refers to the failed attempt in conquering the Piltover
This is gonna be so fire
Can’t wait for vladimir revamp
And i left speechless after darius vs trundle fight it was so goddamn good
7:58 yoo necrit explained whats going on lorewise and some rioter confirmed that this darius is darius in his younger years and he will get bigger eventually
Noxus gets their metal from the mountains around Freljord.
I think this is one of the skirmishes they jad during their takeover
7:35 I think Katarina's smile says "I showed up to hit a target who's protected by a 12 foot long spider and your man still got got."
The art in the final scene with leblanc and baldimir looks like naafiris blade
That doesn't look like naafiri blade not even a little bit, its probobly like riven blade + darkin or some other op weapon that we dont know
@@Apot55 that literally looks like naafiri bro what are you smoking, get your eyes checked

'trundle looks cool?' wait until you see his legends of runeterra card
MAN NAAYIL ALWAYS THE BEST TAKES THIS MAN DOES NOT MISS WHAT A G
Calamity is what she called viktor's herald form. But shes refering to mordekaisers freedom i think
seems like youre putting in more IRL ish clips, i like it, and it seeems feed the Algorythm alot

The most "notice me senpai" shit ever 😂

This Darius is a young version, thats why he is more "Skinner"
And the fught maybe was one of the many times trols want to do shit, like trying to pick up a fight with noxus going to their frontiers
Or its noxus doing this trying to get into the trols territory
To be honest I expected Trundle to be bigger. There is one cinematic with Ryze, where the troll's head is bigger than Ryze himself
is it the last icon that leblanc shows the riven sword??
Btw that's the Vladimir VGU from Wild Rift, he looks like that over there.
Darius is always fist fighting because if he used the axe, the video would get flagged for excessive gore.
The ending part looks like tbe Darkin symbol so yes possible Aatrox reference here
Big dog swain is being held in reserve for the show
Elite500 on the Cinematic??
darius look young cuz that fight should be a flashback
Black Rose is preparing for Mordekaiser's arrival I think.
By the way does anyone realize that Katarina blinks to her dagger a reference to Kat E ingame
idk how many times did i watch , i jus can say gj riot it is cool
8:08 in the cinematic he is indeed YOUNG darius, confirmed in reddit post
When a familiar thumbnail appears, I feel somewhat relieved
Bro hype tf up, we might be getting aatrox animated sooner than we expect, the picture on the wall at the end looks like aatrox as his blade. The link could be to vladimir and the threat of them returning.
Of course he knows Vlad darkin lore
First person I've seen to guess pretty much everything in the cinematic lol
How did Naayil not react to 5:17 ??? LEBLANC IS GOING FOR THE DARKIN WEAPONS!!!
Maybe she said "Piltover is a lesson"
When probably ambessa died and didn't conquer the whole piltover/zaun
Idk
thats the Demon dogs dagger that is naafrie?
7:43 that’s holy 1v1
Piltover was the Lesson because Leblanc is the leader of BlackRose who attacked Ambessa. And Black Rose failed to capture piltover
they did my guy trundle dirty loosing vs darius 😭
What happened to the aatrox figure? Didn't you say December
Trundle has aura. Real
Wait whaa??? Vladimir killed the darkin that taught him blood magic??? I somehow missed that in his story
Katarina similing because she kill the guy who protecting by elise
Darkin weapons are teased and lablanc next plan is to obtain it.
love your videos
Didn't know that Naayil is a top laner
And no new Darius skin is madness💀💀
Good reaction tho. Hes almost capture all the details
I want new LeBlanc to step on me PLEASEEEEE
Bro trundle's Q is 1 of 2 dmg abilities and he couldn't hit it 😂😂
I hope morderkaiser comeback and scare the shit out of leblanc in the sequel of arcane
The whole job of LeBlanc is to fight Morde, so yeah he probably will be there
Are they 1v1ing and not just both armies going all in is because their in toplane and are toplaners?
"TOP LANER" a.k.a best Aatrox in EUW
7:32 I think because she completed her mission to kill that royal guy
for a second i thought i saw a random guy's reaction because of the title
ngl darius kinda looks like he's jayce brother
6:19 If thats young Darius's bicep, Older darius's bicep must be the size of my fuckin torso.
Elise here is double agent istg
Time for you to react to Necrits bite mark lore video for us xD
LeBlanc is Demi Moore
