I really like the Santa Pantheon skin explanation. Shit sounds heckin psychotic when he brings up the reindeer air support but it's also legit a good idea lmao.
That type of skin would require a darkin event, and if ruination taught riot something is that big lore events need a tv series to be successful, so wait I dunno know, 20 years?
@@mantraki Ruination didn't fail because it didn't have a TV series, Ruination failed because the writing was HORRIBLE, the majority of the skins were bad, and the in-client stuff was barely functional and required insane grinding when it did work. Plus Ultimate Spellbook version 1 was boring as fuck and died within a few days of release.
@@mantrakiwell, from business stand point it's easier to make cash with skins and multitude of collaborations than doing an entire TV series that might or might not be liked by people. I mean, the reason why Arcane is so successful isn't because it's a TV show. It's because the writing and overall production is top tier. Ruination on the other hand was terribly written and executed.
Watch Riot looking at how this skin will sell even worse than Ruined and then conclude that it is the helmet's fault for the skin to sell badly. SURELY it isn't because how watered down the skin looks compared to everything else, EVEN compared to the skin's concept art, must be the helmet. Also he is again an old guy, why? WHY IS HE KEEP GETTING OLDER AFTER EACH SKIN?
@@nrthshdw Don't let it distract you from the fact swain's skin looks like he went from lucius malfoy ti jack sparrow lmao Also like, pantheon looks older because he has a bear it's inevitable
Yeah usually have that with the majority of new skins. Recall is dope, dance might be different and dope, rest of the skin basic. I don't think they're good at making basic animations look special. Like how are they gonna make Nasus Q look different.
Pool Party Pantheon, his Spear is a pool baton, his shield is a circular trampoline, his helmet a diving mask. When he ult, he throw the trampoline on the ground and does little jumps on it before lauching into the sky
helmet and recall is nice but its default pantheon with red cape instead of blue and some random red lines from ms paint on his legs arms and abs. literally search up 'default pantheon splashart' and compare the two
My favourite skin idea for Pantheon is Janitor Pantheon. Hear me out. Mop Q Mop Splash W Sanitizer E Water wave R, throwing yellow wet floor sign Grey attire with blue watter effects and red mop
They should have leant more into the wolf part of chosen of the wolf. Dragonslayer has him land as a dragon, why not have him land as a wolf in this one?
when the music video dropped, i was convinced that this was going to be the best skin in the game. needless to say, when i saw the model, it was quite disappointing. none of the chosen of the wolf skins live up to the music video. the swain prestige is the only one that looks even remotely good. the worst part about all of this is that riot won’t use any of the feedback they’re receiving from the pbe to improve these skins at all. 2024 has been a really bad year for skins.
I'm still waiting on the reverse skinline for Pantheon and Aatrox, Panth gets darkin legendary and Aatrox gets "ascended / celestial" legendary. it'd be nice having a skinline where they have similar goals and are actually friendly to eachother or could be rivals in the same team
I expected Pantheon to get the legendary for this one because of the transforming shield from the music video, but instead of they removed the transforming shield completely and gave Ambessa the skin with effects instead of animations.
i understand people not liking it that much but i kinda love it why u ask cuz 1. its a skin that is themed on a soldier like pantheon is. 2. its not a skin that changes the whole champion, as an example gragas and that new kda gragas skin (i forgot the name) it changes the whole theme of the champion and this skin is not like that which is i like cuz we need more champion skins in that theme. 3. skin fits the champion and its skills, let me give you an another example, when u say that there is a 1 guy that has the power of dead and can summon skeletons out of the dirt, u kinda think this guy is probably has a staff and has a dark colour scheme and is more chatoic on the looks chart. but when you think of an a soldier with a spear and a shield that is a really strong guy who can defeat an 5meters tall golem by it self with ease u think of an guy like pantheon, its muscular has a kinda leader and majestic look to itself and looks admireable, i enjoy the skins that gives an diffrent look to a character without changing its concept too much. i like it, i say its a W, i say thank you to those guys who made it.
The fact we haven't gotten a legendary skin in the form of Aspect of War pantheon from LoR when the art already exists is insane to me... Or really any legendary pantheon skin...
Creative skins are nice eye candy, until u realise that they fuck up the cleaness and smoothness of default animations in some skins - this skin just have better animations and feels smoother, the look is whatever (I personally like it, sfx and theme wise)
i think pantheon could benefit better by having in game regional skin like a bildgewater pantheon where he is a whale hunting pirate that hold a giant harpoon
Riot should reach out to some of these high profile streamers that main a few champs and ask for skin ideas. I feel like people who play the champ the most would know what it needs for skins. Unfortunately this idea is smart so Riot will never do it.
I get what Spear is saying about the skin. It is pretty much a Pantheon skin for those who prefer a red cape but even then; Myrmidon Pantheon already does that and better. I don't not like the skin butbit does feel lazy. Like they just said, "It's a Pantheon skin, just make him shirtless and give him a cape."
Ok but lowkey, what a bout a duo skin between femboy twink of the anime con Hwei and Furry muscular master Pantheon and they started...you know what, im gonna keep that to myself
Too be fair, the concept art looked good, but then they just changed the god tier cape to a mid mantle, the white hair part also didnt make it to the final design
The problem is that pantheon is already a very earthly champion with a heavy war theme, making it more war like doesnt do much. Sure the sound is heavier but its eh
And now, we ain't getting another pantheon skin for a long while, and remember, whenever the legendary comes, it only has one shot at being great, pantheon isn't lux, yone or yasuo, he ain't never getting another legendary again after he gets one.
Ah yo Spear, this is random af but have you ever heard of Xcom? Would you ever consider playing it for a stream or something? Cuz I love seeing your vids and it's 1 of my fav games, would anyone else be interested in that?
I'd argue it's worse than the base, it's shield looks worse the cape imo is awful because no contrast to the rest of the skin, and the armor is super bland and has no uniqueness, it just looks like a noxian soldier not noxian PANTHEON

Azir warrior pantheon skin
its just pantheon with a little pinch of more *pantheon*
Pantheon Pantheon
Pantheon Plus
Premium Pantheon even
ye it's not bad, but it's basically Pantheon 2. Although I like it, I understand why people are saying it's trash
Pantheon squared
I really like the Santa Pantheon skin explanation. Shit sounds heckin psychotic when he brings up the reindeer air support but it's also legit a good idea lmao.
They could even give it a cheesy name like Panta Claus
@issytask You genius that's amazing. Panta Claus be delivering pentakills for christmas let's go

I wish they added the darkin pantheon from the card game instead of this

Its crazy that they havent made a Darkin skinline in League yet

Its really easy:
- for the cinematic? Amazing
- as a skin? A "recolor" of the default skin.

Hear me out.

1:20 "Santheon" banger skin name for the idea spear had
16:40 the ezreal walking into vision to check on darius XD
14:44 probably one of the funniest spear shot moments
They should have leant more into the wolf part of chosen of the wolf. Dragonslayer has him land as a dragon, why not have him land as a wolf in this one?
I don't know if this is an unpopular take, but I think that the default Pantheon looks better then half of his skins
Spear casually giving riot ideas in which is honestly a pretty good idea from him tbh
It gives off "skin he had before rework that got a little revamp" vibe.
15:48 "that Q didn't even deal damage, it just killed him" XD
Thx for the vids Pucci
MADE IN HEAVEN

Ah Yes The Katarina
skin with the "Nothing else to offer pose"
I'm still waiting on the reverse skinline for Pantheon and Aatrox, Panth gets darkin legendary and Aatrox gets "ascended / celestial" legendary.
it'd be nice having a skinline where they have similar goals and are actually friendly to eachother or could be rivals in the same team
Bro the Santeon idea is a banger.
Pantheon looked absolutely majestic in the Ambessa music animation. Makes sense to not have the same level of details in the actual game though
3:22
That caught me off guard ngl 🤣
I expected Pantheon to get the legendary for this one because of the transforming shield from the music video, but instead of they removed the transforming shield completely and gave Ambessa the skin with effects instead of animations.
The curse of having an extremely good base skin.
about santa pantheon, it should also deal 1% more damage to Big Bad Warwick
Santa never had a good record with grandmas
i love how you can see the exact moment his smile fades
11.38 that zac plays really good
this skin is like that sticker ur teacher used to give u after u got good marks in first grade
00:08 that W sounds like that meme
I absolutely love this guy 😂 tho ive stopped playing league he is the only league content i enjoy watching now adays
This feels like they got Pantheon's rich cousin Mantheon and asked him to fill in while, pantheon's sick.
I want eclipse Pantheon like how there is eclipse Aatrox
That Santa panth skin idea sounds good actually
Bruv spittin them bars
It looks too similar to dragonslayer. Cool skin but boring and shouldn’t cost the 1350+ it’s gonna cost
Dragonslayer IS the besto for me 😅
Shout out to the editor for the subtle beat drop at 6:48 😭🙏
what song is this????
How anyone can look at this skin and not be disappointed is crazy to me lol
The one thing i like about this skin is that it sounds so much 'rougher' as if his weapons were sort of rusty and much heavier
Spear looking jacked and stacked today💪
i understand people not liking it that much but i kinda love it why u ask cuz

Looks lovely, my favorite skin not gonna lie. Red and Gold is ten times better than blue
That Ez ult scared the shit outa me.
A banger as always! Question though. How is the first song (When the gameplay begins) called?

It’s Pantheon but higher quality. A premium pantheon. Crisper, shaper lines. I’m sorry but Spear has the taste of a child. This is REFINED
pantheon visual update? Nice⊙▽⊙
14:50 worst timed clap ever
I was thinking about toy pantheon, that would be cool
really just has some solari pantheon vibe
I get what Spear is saying about the skin. It is pretty much a Pantheon skin for those who prefer a red cape but even then; Myrmidon Pantheon already does that and better. I don't not like the skin butbit does feel lazy. Like they just said, "It's a Pantheon skin, just make him shirtless and give him a cape."
The modder I hire is going to add this skin soon to newly updated risk of rain as well as other bug fixes I’ve spotted for Pantheon in Risk
The spear feels like a toothpick
Spear out here complaining about the skin when Myrmidon Pantheon exists
ah yes, roman pantheon, my favorite
100% just a normal Pantheon skin, but I love it honestly
2:05 🗿brother
He looks like Lanius from Fallout New Vegas
If the new skin has a yellow chroma....uffff...godness...
I forgive the normal efects.
Ok but lowkey, what a bout a duo skin between femboy twink of the anime con Hwei and Furry muscular master Pantheon and they started...you know what, im gonna keep that to myself
Too be fair, the concept art looked good, but then they just changed the god tier cape to a mid mantle, the white hair part also didnt make it to the final design
They cooked up a tremendous skin in the song so that the skin was not up to par
Pantheon skins are such a meme because ALL of them look just like base pantheon
Artwork is insane in comparison to the skin.
Nothing will beat Prestige Ascended. Ever.
and nobody's gonna mention 2:05 😂😂
4k hdr dolby pantheon (AI edition)
The problem is that pantheon is already a very earthly champion with a heavy war theme, making it more war like doesnt do much. Sure the sound is heavier but its eh
The skin really looks like default panth but red
roadman santa skin, where is that suggestion coming from
The new Skin is not worth anywhere higher than 20 RP above the cheapest Pantheon skins.
professional yapper.
I needed that kiss spear.. love you :3
AHAHAH, bro, ur funny af, that's a sub
And now, we ain't getting another pantheon skin for a long while, and remember, whenever the legendary comes, it only has one shot at being great, pantheon isn't lux, yone or yasuo, he ain't never getting another legendary again after he gets one.
so when is the time to build eclispe tho
Roman Legion Pantheon... or sexual harassment in the work place Pantheon, Riot does love that.
we got gold/crimson chroma pantheon letsgo
myrmidon pantheon with effects
looks like a Pantheon plus
even Leona plus looks better (Leona solar eclipse)
Ah yo Spear, this is random af but have you ever heard of Xcom? Would you ever consider playing it for a stream or something? Cuz I love seeing your vids and it's 1 of my fav games, would anyone else be interested in that?
Xcom get deez nutz
this would be better as a rework ngl
Its just Myrmidon Pantheon but a bit edgyer
The chromas are the only redeeming quality tbh
Petition for santa pantheon
they shouldve given panth the legendary instead of the character who literally just came out
Bee Pantheon when ?
Yea new skin just makes the cape red.... i'll take 3.
Just looks like a special chroma more than anything. Oh and his ult howls now. But that's about it.
I'd argue it's worse than the base, it's shield looks worse the cape imo is awful because no contrast to the rest of the skin, and the armor is super bland and has no uniqueness, it just looks like a noxian soldier not noxian PANTHEON
everyone say theyd buy the santa panth so they add it
Riot give us the Santheon skin
Bro wdym? If DravenDraven is fire, then surely, PantheonPänþë̞øñ would be fire too, right?
pantheon but more pantheon
pantheon needs to become more gyatt
