Shoutout to Cancel Caedrel (4th verse- Harry Potter). This was his first time rapping and doing an LEC rap battle. And he smashed it. If there was a finals series for rap battles Caedrel would make the playoffs.
@@mathies3598 true I mean he seen drakos but never participated on a video, only on a diss with drakos the God dog one on the last mediocre rap battle video the rogue mad fnc and g2 one
I like how in Dan's verse he doesn't really go into personally diss any of the other teams, purely so he can insult all of them at the same time with his God level writing.
Been listening to dan bull since assassins creed 1 rap,my god has he evolved,I absolutly love the league of legend raps,his old raps are phenominal,and his new raps & styles are excellent. Hes an insperation
@@TheGuyYoullNeverMeetI have to disagree. He named players from Rogue, champs they use, and how they use them. He also mentioned some lore. Yes, it was a little more rap centric than references, but he had more than enough references to hold it up.
Cadrel(Harry Potter) is the newest member of the casting team(Ex Pro) Really Great addition to the team. It was an LEC reaction that got me into this channel.It was Scru who made me stay. Love the fact you still react to there content.
The Hikaru line from Rustage I'm pretty sure is not a leagye reference but a Chess reference. Hikaru is one of the best chess players and the game is all about predicting 5 moves ahead.
The Vedi verse is great, and to top it off he wrote it in a night. They made a behind the scenes video and the way it shook out there were three teams close to making playoffs (there ended up being tiebreakers) so Vedi wrote a verse based on the team expected to make it in, then when they didn't he had to write a new verse for the team that did instead (the one in this video) and he banged it out that night.
This is why i love watching your reviews on their stuff man. Youre respectful towards them, not shitting on the nature of the rap but looking at it for what it is :) bravo dear sir
Dan has no chill, goes all in every time , even when he’s messing around he wrecks tracks. Love this dude’s skill, songs come on anywhere and I’m cranking it up
It's a little sad that you need to really do need to be deep into League and the LEC to understand a the references, because Caedrel's had a whole character arc over the past four years. I'm glad you enjoyed the writing and the performances! Vedius definitely snapped, and it was dope to see Rustage up there, but I knew from minute one that Dan was gonna come over the top and slam. I'm glad they put him last on the track because it would've made anyone who came after him sound worse. He's been writing and rapping for so long, he was already dope when I discovered him in college nearly 16 years ago.

Reference to Rogue, a team infamously known for choking come playoff time.

"You sank in the ranks, Malrang showed you the hard way" Reference to the player Malrang, a Korean import who very quickly became one of the best players in the league at his role. "It's been a slow climb, let's call it Rogue time" Rogue are incredibly well known for choking in high pressure situations, so much so that the community refers to it as "Rogue time" "Not polyamorous but then again I will, take all 5 of you out pentakill" League games are played most commonly as 5v5s so not only is Dan Bull mentioning the other 5 rappers, hes also mentioning the event that occurs when one player in league kills the entire enemy team. And we're done. Holy shit this took forever to do. Feel free to let me know what bars I missed
Not a miss more a correction or interpretation, on the Zanzarah bar one of his infamous champions is Skarner, which usually forces the enemy team to "pay the tax" of buying an item, if you dont pay the tax you get punished by dying to the champion
also caps was called baby faker by many before and even after his match against faker. so also not a miss there just a bit u might have not thought about there
Actually zanzarah make 'em pay taxes is not about taxing the wave, it's about enemy team having to pay QSS tax when they play against his infamous skarner. Just to add more: "Like a spreadsheet I'll beat you on a cellular level" making fun of the name Excel which is also a Microsoft Spreadsheet program. Each box being a cell. "Now mad they think they earned a crown, they ain't earn shit just be put down" MAD lions won back to back titles in the LEC but then failed to make spring playoffs "G2, you're just a name on a list" reference to one of the best rap sequences Vedius has ever made in 2020 mediocre rap battle "You're aced, don't resist, your legacy ends here" reference to when a team gets aced, it means the whole team died, also legacy G2 narrative "Humanoid loves to die, he's just a freebee" humanoid dies has been a meme for about 2 years, even when he was still on MAD lions, he tends to overextend and die a lot. "Keep it up and my next monologue will be a eulogy" reference to worlds 2020 when Fnatic played TOP esports in Quaterfinals and went 2-0 up, Sjokz did a monologue before game 3 which in case of a FNC win would sent them to semi's. After the monologue FNC lost 3 in a row, got knocked out and so it's a meme that Sjokz monologues always curse FNC. She's saying the next one might be a more permanent type of curse. Shurima shuffle is specifically used in conjunction with RGE Larssen since it's his most infamous and comfortable champion by far. Odoamne this split has been the best Gankplank player by far, that's why Gankplank is the character of choice here "Jabbing and Maddening you until you're imagining dragons" Imagine dragons have been heavily involved in making music for league of legends. (Enemy and Warriors). Also, they have a a controlling interest in the organisation Rogue.
what i like about this format with experienced rappers versus the lec staff is u kinda get a contrast of styles. The casters have a lot of deeper cuts they can work with, but obviously not the same technical skill as a dan bull, compared to the featured rappers who obviously have more skill but more basic material to work with. So as a fan it kinda balances out to where all them have something interesting going for them. Even caedral who has never rapped before is entertaining to watch cause of his more goofy approach.
AP means Ability Power. Usually scales up with mages, basically the more of that you have, the more your abilities (and auto attacks if they are AP) will hit for. Therefore, Rusty had a dope af line there.
Sjokz has a behind the scenes that I would recommend checking out. It was pretty kool. I don't know anything about LEC but but all the verses were good
Hikaru is a famous chess grandmaster, one of the best of his time and he is known to play online a lot and very fast so that's why he says "predict your moves". Hikaru signed with Misfits as a streamer like 1-2 months ago
@@CapeSkill Bro is top 6 in the world in classical and has been top 1 to top 2 in Rapid and Blitz for a while... you are a delusional hater if you say otherwhise. He would even be one of the best of his time if he was only top 100, but man's literally a top 10.
The lec is starting playoffs and each person is rapping about a team being g2, misfits, fanatic, excel, mad lions, rogue. The 4 other people rapping are all the casters
Like i have said time and time again. If dan bull went serious on like disstracks or battle rap he would be a monster. When he takes stuff seriously he is wild
That ain't Falco (Dylan Falco coach of G2 Esports), and then the Happy Feet line (Happy Feet Wombo Combo is an old Super Smash Bros Melee clip featuring StarFox and one of the casters yelling that ain't Falco)
I'd love for you to still do this is Wardles (This is war 5) by falconshield. It'll get less views but the bars are fire. This reminded me since falcoshield worked on this Cypher
As someone who doesn't play chess, that's pretty interesting to hear. Is he the best ever or only 1 of the best? Is he still the best alive? Sounds interesting but j know nothing lol
@@dominequemccool2359 Hikaru is crazy for his chess theory knowledge. He can predict his opponents moves in un almost computer like manner. Definitely an amazing chess player.
Dan Bull just roasted them all, what a track. All went down on it hard, love it ! And yes, this is prolly better than 99% of rap songs that are made today.
Saw this hit the other day, and I nearly fell outta my chair when I saw Big Rustino, the Hokage on the lineup. I already knew you were gonna lose your shit. Can't wait to see the reaction mate.
Nice analysis! Also they all represent one of the teams in LEC playoffs... in order: 1. Daniel Drakos is G2, they are spring champions. 2. Rustage is Misfits, org that has rabbit as their logo. 3. Vedius is Fanatic. 4. Harry Potter guys is Ceadrel, he represents Excel, he used to play for that team, now he is their social media manager or smthng like that (also makes reference to himself and how when he was on XL they didn't make playoffs). 5. Sjoks represents MAD Lions, they didn't make playoffs in spring. 6. Dan Bull is Rogue, team that often is first in regular season but never finish first in playoffs. Also there is another song LECtronic - Edge of Infinity... maybe you should react to it too...
You're right how Rustage is so good at making digestible bars. Even if you don't "mid in mid lane" and "Faker" are League of Legends references, it's still enough of a bar where you can understand the first layer of it.
So if anybody wants clarification on a verse I'd be happy to help and 'explain' them for people who are interested in the subtext. Also the HP looking dude is Caedrel. He's a caster of the LEC and also a content creator for the team XL which he's repping in this battle. He also used to play for them but sadly didn't make it to play-offs. In fact the first time the team made playoffs was this spring season.
Just had a quick look at LEC (never heard of them before) found a video from 12 days ago mentioning penta kill, Dan Bulls last line was a reference to an LEC video title, that is awesome😁😁😁
Its deeper than that. "Pentakill" is the name of one of the bands that Riot Games (the creator of League of Legends) uses to release music. Lookup "Pentakill: Lost Chapter" on RUclips. They're actually sick
@@ObiWanShinobi917 Pentakill is when someone gets 5 kills ( basically kills the entire enemy team ). It's a big thing when it comes to LoL, but mostly games in general. The band name is in reference to this.
You NEED to react to Songer - Blackbox Sunrise Session - hes an amazing (white) storytelling and lyrical, yet witty rapper with a great catalogue, but the blackbox is one of his best freestyles and speaks deeply about black struggle
Watched your reaction when it first dropped but had to come back after seeing other reactions from people in the league community who don't understand or appreciate rap.
4:30 yeah you're right about the way he writes his lyrics because you did kinda get it, for clarification I'll say this though: AP is short for ability power which is used by magic using characters (for the physical damage dealing characters it's AD(attack damage)) with your amount of AP determining how much damage you're doing

I have to watch this daily now bruh. I gotta sub too. Your vids are legit. Great insights. MUCH LOVE
Dan goes so FUCKING hard in this
I knew for sure Scru was gonna react to this, lit song
The lec is starting playoffs and each person is rapping about a team being g2, misfits, fanatic, excel, mad lions, rogue. The 4 other people rapping are all the casters
Fnatic not fanatic
Like i have said time and time again. If dan bull went serious on like disstracks or battle rap he would be a monster. When he takes stuff seriously he is wild
That ain't Falco (Dylan Falco coach of G2 Esports), and then the Happy Feet line (Happy Feet Wombo Combo is an old Super Smash Bros Melee clip featuring StarFox and one of the casters yelling that ain't Falco)
“As you cry, you just fight, like hobbits, for a ring, when the fans, only need, the return, of the king.” -Andy Day
Honestly yes i was waiting for your reaction
Andy Day crushed it. He’s got real potential.
I'd love for you to still do this is Wardles (This is war 5) by falconshield. It'll get less views but the bars are fire. This reminded me since falcoshield worked on this Cypher
Hikaru is one of the world's best chess players
As someone who doesn't play chess, that's pretty interesting to hear. Is he the best ever or only 1 of the best? Is he still the best alive? Sounds interesting but j know nothing lol
@@dominequemccool2359 just look him up, he's insane.
@@dominequemccool2359 He's rated #6 in the world rn. Chess uses an Elo system so you can put a real number on who the GOAT is
@@dominequemccool2359 Hikaru is crazy for his chess theory knowledge. He can predict his opponents moves in un almost computer like manner. Definitely an amazing chess player.
@@dominequemccool2359 nowhere near the best ever, but he is a grandmaster and ranked as one of the best online so VERY VERY good.
1. watch the video
2. watch Sjokz vlog behind the scenes
3. watch scru react to it
its just something that has to be done
You knew it was over when Dan bull opened up just talking
So proud of Vedius! He slayed
Whenever one of these battles come out I watch it and then come here to wait! Props to you for reacting so quickly. You're the best!!
Dan Bull just roasted them all, what a track. All went down on it hard, love it ! And yes, this is prolly better than 99% of rap songs that are made today.
Saw this hit the other day, and I nearly fell outta my chair when I saw Big Rustino, the Hokage on the lineup. I already knew you were gonna lose your shit. Can't wait to see the reaction mate.
I was waiting for this one!!
Was waiting and refreshing for this, 10/10 both on the reaction/breakdown and for the LEC
Dan Bull is and always will be the king of gaming rap *bows down*
Nice analysis! Also they all represent one of the teams in LEC playoffs... in order: 1. Daniel Drakos is G2, they are spring champions. 2. Rustage is Misfits, org that has rabbit as their logo. 3. Vedius is Fanatic. 4. Harry Potter guys is Ceadrel, he represents Excel, he used to play for that team, now he is their social media manager or smthng like that (also makes reference to himself and how when he was on XL they didn't make playoffs). 5. Sjoks represents MAD Lions, they didn't make playoffs in spring. 6. Dan Bull is Rogue, team that often is first in regular season but never finish first in playoffs. Also there is another song LECtronic - Edge of Infinity... maybe you should react to it too...
Caedrel is streamer/content creator for XL
We need another one of these
I always love your LEC reaction Videos!!
5:30 "Isn't serious... chill out" had me dying
LECtronic: EDGE OF INFINITY is another recent song by LEC you should check out. No rap but still a banger.
being a league fan, it's so cool to see them make a cypher for pro play
Heads up scru. Worlds are in the states this year and the big performance that you react to will be in San Francisco In October!
Loved the energy in this one!
Dan is once again a goat that’s not worth sacrificing because his writing is God Tier
I knew when I heard Vedius verse that you would like that one. It's my favorite even though I am rooting for G2.
Yes, yes, the famous psychic type pokemon GM Hikaru
Dan Bull
You're right how Rustage is so good at making digestible bars. Even if you don't "mid in mid lane" and "Faker" are League of Legends references, it's still enough of a bar where you can understand the first layer of it.
The Harry Potter guy is Caedrel and it was his 1st time rapping
Bruh Dan Bull got no equal, that simple.
His name is Verdius one of the best personalities in the lec
You should check out more frivolous if you're looking for a nerdcore artists with tons of actual music videos
So if anybody wants clarification on a verse I'd be happy to help and 'explain' them for people who are interested in the subtext. Also the HP looking dude is Caedrel. He's a caster of the LEC and also a content creator for the team XL which he's repping in this battle. He also used to play for them but sadly didn't make it to play-offs. In fact the first time the team made playoffs was this spring season.
"a hug from Fia".... Was that an Elden Ring reference?!
"solving world hunger the amount you feed" holy shit I loved that one
AP just stands for Ability Spower. which determines the damage from magic attacks
Ngl that faker bar is hard i choked bruh
Is this where we try again to get Scru to react to Daniel Drakos' (first rapper in the video) original rap song ...
Just had a quick look at LEC (never heard of them before) found a video from 12 days ago mentioning penta kill, Dan Bulls last line was a reference to an LEC video title, that is awesome😁😁😁
Its deeper than that. "Pentakill" is the name of one of the bands that Riot Games (the creator of League of Legends) uses to release music. Lookup "Pentakill: Lost Chapter" on RUclips. They're actually sick
@@ObiWanShinobi917 Pentakill is when someone gets 5 kills ( basically kills the entire enemy team ). It's a big thing when it comes to LoL, but mostly games in general. The band name is in reference to this.
Scru enjoying it this much without understanding even the half of it. Catching all the references would blow your mind
Would love to see u be in one of these on day, anyway dope reaction and great that u enjoy these so much!
When will you react to Dan Bulls original songs, like last cigarette?
Lmao. He did the Harry Potter meme and he didn't realize
i just wanna say the wombo combo scheme in the first verse mad me stand up and take a lap my word
By the way, Dan Bull looks so good nowaydays. He worked out like crazy and know has lots of muscles
We had the same reaction with the sliding back in chair at the "do it so graphic it's cut from the DVD" line. I felt that one.
Hikaru is a Chess Grand Master.
Shoutouts to the G2, you’re just a name on a list bar. It’s a bar from an old rap battle between fnc and G2. Fnc reviving the old school beef
dan bull the legend
Dan Bull is even a psychic, because Rogue did get a Pentakill in the final.
Andy day? First time hearin him and that hit different
This was a good one.
Both of Mad's coaches are named MAC and KAAS. (kaas is cheese in dutch) 12:25
10 points for Grifendor
Grieffindor 😉
i love how he calls caedrel harry potter lol
3rd person is Vedius, essentially one of the LEC coach’s says Vedius studies and reminds him of Eminem.
I wish you knew the references this is fire
WE NEED MORE PS HITSQUAD REACTIONSSSSSSSSSSS, PLS REACT TO HIS 'generals corner freestyle' I BEG YOUUUUU
You NEED to react to Songer - Blackbox Sunrise Session - hes an amazing (white) storytelling and lyrical, yet witty rapper with a great catalogue, but the blackbox is one of his best freestyles and speaks deeply about black struggle
Watched your reaction when it first dropped but had to come back after seeing other reactions from people in the league community who don't understand or appreciate rap.
4:30 yeah you're right about the way he writes his lyrics because you did kinda get it, for clarification I'll say this though: AP is short for ability power which is used by magic using characters (for the physical damage dealing characters it's AD(attack damage)) with your amount of AP determining how much damage you're doing
Can’t have a cypher with out Dan bull.
Dave - LAZARUS!!! Massive African vibe!!!!
Bro Dan Bull forgot this was supposed to be a mediocre cypher
"Like rabbits we bouta fuck this shit up!"
Gotta get a ocean wisdom fire in the booth reaction. He goes off 🔥🔥🔥
After I saw the vid had to stop here to see if it was uploaded also 😂
i watched the video then searched for you because i had to hear what you thought about it.
Dan brought a gun to a knife fight
13:35 anyone else not surprised dan upstaged every other participant of the battle
