I love their depiction of the lamb. She's not worried at any point, just...curious...I'm sure at her age she doesn't find many things that are new to her.
100% She was slow and methodical while Wolf is full on pressure. It was perfectly done. Her slowly circling Tryn, while wolf is just constantly rushing him despite getting swatted away.
@@Decimation1030 I mean, the Lamb offers peaceful death while the Wolf hunts down the ones that try to escape/defy the death. The lamb tried to offer him death by arrow multiple times and he always refused, you can see that he is always struck by the Wolf when he refuses death while the Lamb wonders why that is, why does he not want to accept it. Yasuo on the other hand accepted the offer and just accepted his peaceful death by the arrow.
Lamb is incapable of emotion. When Death split himself apart to create the Lamb and the Wolf, the Wolf became the emotional half that felt emotions but did not understand them. The Lamb became the rational half that understood emotions, but did not feel them. In Kindred's voicelines, there's multiple dialogues where the Wolf describes how an emotion feels to Lamb when she asks. Fear, hunger, sadness.
@@Decimation1030 Considering the kindred are just the aspect of death, I wouldn't think they would care about much more like they are indifferent and simply playing their roles.
Context: This cinematic is described as the "Past, Present, and Possible Futures" and if you noticed between each transition, there is very small image of Kindred as she comes to claim each soul's life, in the fire when Kayle burns Aatrox and her eyes in the faint woods as Yasuo accepts his death with the arrow being shot at him The first two characters you see (the angels) are Morgana (Purple Wings), and Kayle (White Wings) the twin Aspects of Justice. They're also sisters wielding two halves of their mother's blade (their mother was the previous Aspect of Justice). That scene takes place in the past of what we know of the lore right now, during a siege on a kingdom called Demacia, which happened in ancient times. To be an Aspect is kind of like being an avatar for a god. The person they're fighting is Aatrox, who, at one point, was also kind of an avatar for godly powers, but was corrupted by blood magic, and effectively "cursed" to never die. He now seeks the destruction of all existence in the hopes that he could finally rest. The last bit of the scene seems to be meant to show the differences in Kayle and Morgana's personalities. Morgana will sink to any low she needs to in order to do what is right, whereas Kayle sees herself above it all, looking at her position as an Aspect as far more important than it possibly is. Since this is the past, this is technically before Kayle and Morganna split and go separate ways on deciding how to deal Justice. But you can definitely tell Kayle is now mad at Morganna for using magic and two, throwing down there's mother sword. The second scene is of the future, in a small village in a land called Ionia. The old samurai is a character by the name of Yasuo, a master of a powerful wind technique. He's had a life of disgrace, and hardship, failing to save his master who taught him the wind technique, being blamed for his death, and then having to kill his own brother who hunted him down. Clearly, when he grows old, he finds a place in the small village, and lives there in peace until it's attacked, prompting him to take up a sword in defense of the people. The scene is pretty self-explanatory, but it's a very strong moment for League of Legends fans for sure. The final scene is my favorite. The whole video starts with the line "Tomorrow is a hope. Never a promise." This line is spoken by Lamb, one half of the character known as The Kindred. The Kindred serve as the Grim Reaper of the world of League of Legends. The story goes that Death was so lonely that it split itself in two, so it would "always have a friend". One half is the Lamb, and the other half is the Wolf. Lamb represents the peace in acceptance of death, wielding a bow to deliver a swift end, and Wolf represents the violence of rejecting and running from death, being literally a beast that mauls anything that tries to escape. You only see them when they've decided your time has come. The character we zoom in on at the end is Tryndamere, a barbarian king of the Freljord (Frel-yord). At the very beginning, he seems to be in a battle for his life against surrounding forces. When we reach the end, his vision shifts to a darker scene, and the image of the Kindred come into his view. Wolf is on the offensive, because Tryndamere is trying to fight for his life. Lamb tries to deliver shots that will end him quickly, but it seems Lamb is surprised to see that Tryndamere has a power that lets him avoid death for a short time (which is what the red in his eyes means) (If I am correct based off lore, he is infused with blood magic which technically allows him to become immortal when on the brink of death). It catches them off guard and lets Tryndamere almost get a blow in. While Wolf attempts to maul him, Lamb tries to go for one final strike, when Ashe, the frost archer, and wife of Tryndamere, arrives and kills two of the men that were attacking him. The Kindred and their darkness fade away, indicating that Ashe's arrival has saved Tryndamere from the Kindred's hunt, and the death he was destined for. As more forces move in against them, Ashe fires a hawk shot into the air to signal their position and call for reinforcements.
As soon as homie said "that looked like kindred's wolf" I instantly hit follow. Kindred is my favorite champion they have ever created. The fact that he knew that, had me realize that he knew league and what kindred was, I knew that he was a league player and he knew the game through and through. And later when he talked about winning 4v5s and how the music showed that(through her PoV) triumph, I just knew I found my people. Love you all! Much love and success.
Kindred is an awesome character. We actually played around with some voice workLeague of Legends - Kindred I Smell Prey! Tasha and I having some fun with voice work. ruclips.net/video/R6VZS1cWMjg/видео.html
What's cool too is the fact that Marc Merrill, one of the co-founders of Riot, played Everquest and used his character's name for Tryndamere (slightly different spelling), and in real-life he's married to a woman named Ashely (Ashe).
(scene one) The Kayle/Morgana scene is where Morgana lets go of her sword, apparently using a non-heavenly force to bind Aatrox. Kayle looks down on her because she considers such powers to be inferior and falls into his eyes, but continues to finishes the job. Aatrox, who is actually the "sword", is seen falling. So the boat can be killed by kayle. You can see a shadow of Kindred(Lamb) briefly in Kayle's flames. (second scene) Yasuo's scene, is he fighting these mercenaries? I don't know what it is, protecting those who are left, at the end with the many arrows we see a form of a Wolf who is the kindred and then among the arrows we also see the arrow from kindred which means yas died and this was the last battle (third scene)Tryndamere's scene is fighting to the death with unknown enemies and then literally fighting death itself. The fight with Kindred is a metaphysical representation of what happens during Tryndamere's ultimate which can't die for several seconds. In the end, it seemed that Tryndamere's time was running out and the enemies would kill him (so he was ready to drop the arrow and kindred), since the ult would not protect him but his wife ashe appeared and saved him, if she is still his wife, I have no idea haha we see his role as an incarnation or aspect of death since he appears 4 times:
For those who need context: -This whole cinematic is about Kindred. They are the aspect of death. If you accept death, Lamb (the pale one) gives you a swift release with her arrow. If you avoid it, Wolf (the dark one) will hunt you down and make it more painful -The first scene is in the past somewhere around Damacia. Where the two patron sisters fight Aatrox the darkin. Darkin are akin to demon, they possess an host. In the current lore the sisters do not talk anymore because of their vastly different view on justice. Kindred is always present for a death. So when Kayle (the blonde one) burns it all down. Killing the host of Aatrox, the shape can be seen in the flame -The second is a possible future where Noxus successfully invaded Ionia. Yasuo is trying to save a few people and then dies. You can see wolf eyes in the treeline and Lamb arrow finish him off. You can see he accepts his faith because he looks up for a fraction of a second (Noticing Lamb's arrow) and makes sure to finish off the last guy before kneeling. -The last if Tryndamere in the present state of the lore. He has some of Aatrox blood and a rage so great every time he comes close to dying he pushes it away. Hence why he is fighting Kindred, fighting death. His wife Ashes comes to save him at the end but lamb will come back eventually. -The "I'm still here" is not so much the heroes it is Kindred themselves because death is inevitable. ADDITIONAL INFO; the hero fighting Kindred in the snowy fields is Tryndamere, and his eyes go red because in the game his ultimate ability is a bloodfrenzied fury (in the lore they let it be understood as some kind of infection from Aatrox's blood magic), which makes him literally unkillable for a short amount of seconds, making him the only human capable of fending off death, therefore the only human who can survive a direct encounter with Kindred.
It is true that League of Legends universe and world building has transcended the game which was always meant to be a competitive game first, not really focused on the characters outside of their ingame abilities. Riot did well to recognize that and bring the universe to broader audiences with Arcane and games like Legends of Runeterra the card game and smaller Riot Forge titles like Ruined King and Mageseeker. They are still working on other projects with the fighting game and MMO at the forefront.
To summarize the movie, everything is based on Kindred. Morgana and Kayle symbolize the past, Tryndamare the present and Yasuo the future. Kindred takes those who accept death effortlessly and painlessly, while the wolf chases and hunts those who defy death. So you can recognize the glowing arrow that comes at Yasuo as belonging to Kindred, in which case Yasuo accepts death. Tryndamare, on the contrary, defies death with his ultimate in the game and does not accept death, he postponed death even though he could not defeat death completely. This is what I understood from this cinematic. It's not very detailed and it's short. It's an unsatisfying cinematic, but it's an okay cinematic.

There's nothing quite like a comeback game or a hard carry where you are just... so in the element.
YES!!!!!
This is awesome! I haven't played LoL in years but I just might start again.
Amazing u noticed the wolf in the background. Many people miss that.
best example of a player and a non player, ma dude had tears in his eyes at the end
League always moves me. The love and care Riot puts into their cinematics is unmatched.
@@TNTGamingonline oh I cried my eyes out 😂 and I agree with you, this is their best work so far imo
2013. Me and some randome dude playing 2vs5, cose our 3 players was disconnected...Warwick and Singed....we won and that was EPIC!!
Bruh, I would’ve loved to see that game. Both WW and Singe are broken esp if fed.
For a second I thought that was Tasha talking when the video started 😂
2023 league ip -- riot where are you? you let us down !
2024 RIOT respond --- i'm still here ! :)
"...The music added this sense of hope.. but a sense of... like... bad-assery." XD yes. 💯
The face of pure enthusiasm and satisfaction from Tee is the same all of us had.
guy almost falling in tears
Yaaay!! You guys did it! Thanks for another amazing video!
if you dig deep into the lore, this is the BEST cinematic they have ever produced, its also riots way of saying "we messed up, but we are still here"
They are gearing up for the league MMO thats coming packing in the lore
I think she will love that.
Este hombre realmente disfruto el cinematic
3 afk, 2 vs5 and we win. Jinx and Lux. I'll never forgot this game
Hahahahaha you never forget moments like that. I’ve won a 3v5 but 2v5 must’ve been hell but very satisfying to win.
