We knew that Nagakabouros was referred to as Bearded Lady before Pyke's release because a line from Illaoi said "Bearded Lady, Nagakabouros, names don't matter! Action does."
Gangplank is literally gangplank though, thats why he survived it, look at his lore and his kit, he's also pirate themed, so he stays in motion, takes his punches, and deals untenable damage to his opponents in reaction.
The fact that YOU need to "stay in motion" to dodge illaois tentacles in League gameplay to beat her or "prove you're worthy of living" in amazing storytelling in gameplay
that sounds great on the paper but what i learned from experience, in reality the way to counter illaoi is not by staying in motionq but by standing your ground as if you are denying the Nagakaboros concept. 4 out of 5 times when i play Illaoi on top i have harder time winning against more aggresive players that engage me every time i E them instead of running.
Fair enough, but I still think most champions have a hard time winning if they aren't actively dodging her skillshots, especially when going in after she lands E
@@frankcayseron8637 Tbf they can "be in motion" by standing their ground and being aggressive. If they're good enough to dodge your slams while also fighting you that is. Before ult at least
@@ajhintleman215 of course it goes without saying that illaoi opponent will always try to dodge E, but in case they dont i fought many champions that instead of insinctively trying to get out of range and break E's effect they go full aggro mode like D&D barbarian going for reckless attack. Chogath would Q you as one your E lands you are stuck in animation for a second and his silence stops you from slamming. Darius if caught in your E would rather get in melee range and pull you hoping his bleed out DPS your tentacles, even quinn would rather blind you and prock her passive before flying away. To be fair this also goes to other person's comment that even though standing your ground it seem they are still in motion so i guess i AM somewhat wrong in my initial statement :D
@@frankcayseron8637 Playing Cho'gath against Illaoi when she E's you is just a dmg check. "can I deal more dmg to her than she does to my soul? and deny her from destroying it?", then back to farming. Just be in front of her instead of the side, so the wall tentacles don't hit you
10:38 It would actually be cool and interesting for Nagakabouros to be a Watcher that escaped from the Void because it didn't want to sleep like the others so it ended up in Runeterra's universe. At one point, it got bored and started to pay attention to the Buhru tribe. It judged them on their way of life and granted its powers to those he deemed fitting to represent it, like Illaoi. It's the god of *motion* which contrasts well with the Watchers just wantng to *sleep.* I bet that's already part of Riot's lore but they just haven't told us yet 👀. It makes too much sense for it to be a random coincidence 🤔.
I agree 100%. When he says about watchers was the first thing that came to mynd and would makes sense because of the size and Secrets of this thing. League has the problem from have to many big things without explanation.
@@Braxtonkaibut the watchers only wanted that because is the only thing they knew. Imagine something like Nagakabouros dont agree with them and go to earth and start powering people to fight agaisnt the watchers to keep that reality alive... And the theme "motion" from her its a theme agaisnt what the watchers wanted that is only sleep
Damn that would be really cool. The story can go so many ways from here. Maybe the buhru tribe where the predecessors of an ancient freljord tribe, and the Nagakaborous , a watcher, basically followed them, curious, over centuries, and maybe at some point decided to be Nagakaborous . Maybe she was from the same realm as the watcher's (the void) but it was the watchers that invaded and Nagakaborous was one of the last of its native kind, half corrupted by their void-ish infection causing her to grow tentacles. Maybe Nagakaborous managed to escape Lissandra's eyes by hiding in the sea, never leaving. And slowly spread her influence to one day take over runeterra biding her time until the watchers finally return as per Lissandras quotes.
It sounds cool, but it goes against the entirety of the watcher's lore Their whole thing is that they WANT to kill reality because it's an annoying light that woke them up
@@northernalpine4350 individuals in the watchers group can have different opinions and she could have broken some time in the past to be part of and be changed by creation instead of changing it to fit her.
My favorite card text in LOR is the one that says "Nagacarburos didnt break the continents , but to be fair, no one doubts she COULD if she felt like it"
The 3D model will most likely just be the flat wall of eyes, and not an entire creature. Animators trick is to never waste effort on making things that aren't in view of the camera, And if the whole animation is story boarded then most likely it'll just be a square wall of eyes.
I said it before, but I feel that, even more now that I understand the lore, the Nagakabouros animation should be reserved to whence the move would kill the opponent. I doubt it would just leave it with some slap in the wrist...
It is just fighting game lore... which is basically anime lore... Except for Mortal Kombat/injustice fighting games don't have a "kill only animation". In the case of MK... everything is a kill animation even if the character is still alive.
nagakaboros might be runetera's version of "creator" and watchers are just its minions. Other theory bouncing in my head could be that Nagakaboros and watchers are yin and yang because by old lore watchers want to destroy the runetera because its stopping/preventing them from sleeping and doing nothing. Watchers are driven by the motive opposite of nagakaboros's "always stay in motion" concept.
3:45 Speaking of being in motion, the tentacles absolutely display a threat to the enemy team Illaoi is playing against, and with this obstacle the enemy will have to acknowledge and figure out how to overcome such obstacle, whether to resolve it head on or take it slow, but react too slow and opportunities will dwindle, because as they say in life, you miss every shot you don't take- which ties so well with Illaoi teaching people to keep adapting and keep moving forward
I dunno if you play fighting games or what but I just wanna say it's cool how you talk about the whole thing, gameplay and all, not just the big bit at the end. Really thorough, good stuff.
9:23 *insert ackshually guy meme here* what about Soraka, Bard, Aurelion, Kindred, Janna and other gods/god spirits and aspects ? i think that 99% decreases a bit... ok a lot...
In my personal head cannon Nagakabouros is a massive snake creature who has constricted the planet of Runeterra, and it is Nagakabouros’ motion which turns the planet on its axis. A god of motion in a literal sense as well as the metaphorical.
You have Bard, Targon, and Asol above and Nagaka and Buhuru below, and Fiddle, Ashlash, Morde and the Other 10 (Fiddle included) In-between, and Lastly the Watchers beyond. Sounds fair and balanced to me.
I kinda hope they make Jinx's final super based on her original Get Jinxed music video, of her riding a huge salvo of giant bombs down on her opponent.
Riot putting real effort into their other genre game's lore is actually fucking genius and im so excited for the new content coming out of their IPs!!!!!!!! Im not a huge fan of fighting games, but if i can use it as a gateway game for league with my nephews and other family? Im buying several copies so we can all play across the country 2gether FOR SURE.
What does Aurelion Sol mean when he says "You do not understand your god god, Illaoi." Also with Nagakaborous's name it definitely has Ouroborous and the Naga in it's name, I wonder if people could piece together a design using that
god league of legends lore is soo sooo good, listening about it about all the little details and connections is just so exiting, absolute masterpiece that keeps on giving (even despite the fact that some characters have less lore than a mcdonald’s french fry packaging)
When you mentioned Burning Tieds, I started to wonder that Riot could do something like that when Arcane season 2 will release, you would fight on a bridge connecting Piltover and Zaun.
This depicition of Negakaboros is also very similar to what Pyke describes as he descends into the Sea. The many eyes, giant monsters. I wonder if he's going to be end up connected to Nagakabouros more directly
I'm pretty sure Illaoi herself when she was released revealed that nagakeborus was the bearded lady. Her quote is "bearded lady? Nagakeborus's names don't matter." And she was released years prior before pyke.
Here's an Idea, what is Nagakabouros has some kind of connection to the void, now this may seem silly with most void monster's being purple, but what if the creator of the void was like a sibling of Nagakabouros? or more likely, part of Nagakabouros that developed a will of its own? this idea may seem silly, but ocean gods in many games have connections to the eldritch (or void in the league universe), perhaps Nagakabouros is just one piece of a much grander game in the league lore universe
haha, not many here seem to play fighting games or be interested in the genre, but i was wondering the same thing while watching 🤣 i'm curious to get to try it
Deities don not have a defined shape, they take the closest shape to the form their cultists think they are, usually similar to legendary beasts. In this case Nagakabouros has kraken and serpentine features because of the monsters of the deep and even the different color stripes on her body may be a reflection of the way her cultists think she is. That may be why we can appreciate a defined form and not die in her "endless incomprehensible immensity", which is even cooler. But since she has a form now, and even a 3D model, she is definetely gonna be a boss for the MMORPG!
Naahh. Not her, but rather her avatar. Or idk what kind of bullshit they'll need to pull off for a bunch of murderhobos to kill a literal eldritch entity that is above league's gods
Just want you to know i clicked and dropped a like because of the green highlight you have on your picture in the thumbnail. That is all. Editor kun is cooking
I think the reason why Lady Nagakabouros is so powerful is because her believers voluntarily submit their souls to her. The Buhru believe that when they die, they come back to Nagakabouros as they believe that she gave them life. Imagine the immense power of a soul... And imagine countless number of souls that Lady Nagakabouros acquires from her believers, and also from the ones who fail her Test of Spirit ritual... In short, Nagakabouros isn't just the goddess. It's also the entirety of the dead Buhru with the goddess. I think that's the reason why she's so powerful, and also why she's so huge. She gets her power not just from beliefs, but also from souls.
The ''watching a lovecraftian god would melt your mind'' is a myth, Lovecraft never said that in any story he wrote, what he wrote was people (obviously) tweeking after watching something so vile and out of their imagination that they went crazy, but it isn't a ''power'' The other gods have, it's just people's minds not strong enough to process what their seeing.
99% of the lol champions whould have their minds melted? i think Aatrox, zoe, aurelian, kayle, morgana, ryze, maybe all of the voidborn, voli, anivia, orn, morde, fiddle, nocturne, whould like to disagree
I think its fair to say Nagakabouros has no set form. It has a "theme" as it may, but not a set shape. At least not one mortal minds can figure out, even if you could see the whole size of it (again, assuming size as a concept is even applicable to it)
Would love to hear you talk about WoW lore. You’re awesome. I don’t play league much if at all but lore is awesome especially when there’s SO MUCH of it in a game. Game looks fun!
a details i didnst saw befor in the shot where you see the eyes in the right down corner you can see the tip of a teeth mean nagakabousos has eyes on the side ( like a shark or whale) and not in front of here face to like the bilgwater nagakabourus icon on where sh's depicted as a squid like creature
My headcannon is that Nagakabouros is something similar to Vel’Koz, a creature from the other realm who took form of similar to a sea creature by consuming sealife, but only partially hence the “incomprehensible” appearance, it’s literally not a creature from our realm. Just like Vel’Koz it took interest in the world, and formed a personality opposing The Watchers, since they want their realm to remain the same dark abyss of nothing, meanwhile Nagakabouros wants to the world to change and move forward.
Riots Lore team was so committed to the lore, they became the irl version of The Black Rose.

I wish they would just change name from 2XKO to anything else...even XKO is more acceptable
The ''watching a lovecraftian god would melt your mind'' is a myth, Lovecraft never said that in any story he wrote, what he wrote was people (obviously) tweeking after watching something so vile and out of their imagination that they went crazy, but it isn't a ''power'' The other gods have, it's just people's minds not strong enough to process what their seeing.
Yay, time to see Cthulhu's runterran sister!
My headcanon is that, Illaoi is the Head of Nagakabouros, and Pyke is the blade/weapon of Nagakabouros. i hope he makes it to the game :3
I like that it looks so much like N'zoth from WoW.
nothing better than a pair of stained pants.
the abyss will stare back, nagakabouros stares back
99% of the lol champions whould have their minds melted? i think Aatrox, zoe, aurelian, kayle, morgana, ryze, maybe all of the voidborn, voli, anivia, orn, morde, fiddle, nocturne, whould like to disagree
I guess the chanps mentioned here total 8-12% of the Champs so you right.
I enjoy League lore but, I LOVE Illaoi lore. This makes me happy.
The symbol of negakeboros does look like the creature in 2XKO, down to the mouth at the end of the animation
Love the detailing
Bro never heard about impact frames, also 11:30 we also never saw katarinas ultimate even tho she was showed before
I think its fair to say Nagakabouros has no set form. It has a "theme" as it may, but not a set shape. At least not one mortal minds can figure out, even if you could see the whole size of it (again, assuming size as a concept is even applicable to it)
This looks like a green watcher of the void imo (?
How very bold of you to assume that I'm not DEEPLY invested in fighting games or even the lore for the fighting games!~
So when does Disney acknowledge that Dory is a minor preist of Nagakaboros....just keep swimming...
finding nemo 2xko dlc when.
Lovecraftian creatures do not actually melt your mind (well they do if you are weak minded) but if you can handle it you should be alright.
Real talk, the main reason I watched all the way was to keep hearing you say Nagakabouros.
Also, God, "Project L" was such a better name.
Nagak_Boros Is Not Magic It is Power
Not Magic IT IS Truly Power Necrit
Hype for when they announce 2k/4k textures for summoners (blur) rift
Would love to hear you talk about WoW lore. You’re awesome. I don’t play league much if at all but lore is awesome especially when there’s SO MUCH of it in a game. Game looks fun!
i expected something huge jawdropping but wow they just revealed a creature which we know exists...
Can already imagine the raid of Nagakabouros in Riot MMo RPG...fck i can't wait for that game
showing pieces like exodia is cool
Nagakabouros could be similar to a watcher many eyes tentacles, disintegrate you when she looks at you
"get out of my swamp!"
Necrit say the line: Everything is know cannon
Everything is nice until
"In time I will learn how to kill even your god, Illaoi!"-Aatrox
a details i didnst saw befor in the shot where you see the eyes in the right down corner you can see the tip of a teeth mean nagakabousos has eyes on the side ( like a shark or whale) and not in front of here face to like the bilgwater nagakabourus icon on where sh's depicted as a squid like creature
My headcannon is that Nagakabouros is something similar to Vel’Koz, a creature from the other realm who took form of similar to a sea creature by consuming sealife, but only partially hence the “incomprehensible” appearance, it’s literally not a creature from our realm.
Just like Vel’Koz it took interest in the world, and formed a personality opposing The Watchers, since they want their realm to remain the same dark abyss of nothing, meanwhile Nagakabouros wants to the world to change and move forward.
I think the same.
