His design is really cool. Kinda wish they cut back on the biffoonery a little though. He's suppost to be this ancient master of battle, the ultimate duelist, but then most of his followers just clown on him and all of the card descriptions talk about him losing fights.
@@danielsniff6405 I actually love that he is that goofy. it's kinda fresh to see a war veteran, a weaponmaster, still keep in tough with his sense of humour, although it's probably a self-defense mechanism from ptsd
@@danielsniff6405 The reason why Jax lost some of his fights is intentional. He wants to recruit brave warriors to stand with him against the void. And to do that, he always gets in situations where some monster "overpowers" him just so someone can save him and Jax will recruit that person for their willingness to stand against a threat.
The reason why is actually in Ornn's bio (I believe),. Before all of this, Ornn lived in his mountain alone and forged, the people living on the side of the mountain were impressed by Ornn and begun to improve their blacksmithing, calling themselves the HEARTHBLOOD, sometimes trying to offer their creations to Ornn to gain his approval and respect. Ornn wouldn't ever show it but he actually did respect their mentality for constant self-improvement and their gifts. One day Volibear and his armies came to Ornn asking for weapons and Ornn basically said either nothing or something along the lines of, "get outta here Its forgin' time!" afterwards Volibear pissed Ornn off so much they had a massive fight, during the fight, the Hearthblood were either injured or killed with their gifts to Ornn all destroyed. Ornn felt responsible for the destruction and retreated inside his hearth forging since. Is probably why the name doesn't mean anything anymore, he still remembers what happened last time and doesn't want to get too attached
I love how people are rekindling the Hearthblood to please Ornn, yet he doesn't want that because to him it means nothing now. That is so brilliant and tragic. The original Hearthblood really were his unexpected joy even though he never expressed it to anyone. Unlike the other Freljordian demi-gods, Ornn never asked for anyone's worship or to follow his example. So the fact that a tribe in the Freljord did so purely out of their love of forging, it connected with him. Losing them definitely had a great impact on him.
And he fears too get that joy again that why he said let the name die but saying that means nothing is a big lie that him tell himself but in reality it means everything for him (that is my take for that voiceline) it was is joy but its was too is first time that he felt loss and grief so he closed is hearth too not feel loss again .
I hope Ornn realizes if nobody worships or even remembers him, he will die to Etherfiend. Even if he doesn't want it, he shouldn't make people stop worshipping him.
@@lifeinanutshell7147 well he don't want people to worship him because Volibear jealousy he have with Ornn. The reason why Volibear is jealous because the Hearthblood worship him out respect and admiration for Ornn and not because they must worship Volibear to survive. Ornn and Volibear fought each other and in the process, Ornn's followers got caught in crossfire and they all were all obliterated, this devastated Ornn and Ornn and Volibear still fight to this day. So you know, Ornn just doesn't want a tragedy to repeat itself. In LOL he even have a line that said: "I prefer being alone, less unintended casualties.
He just saw his creation ruined and magical EXTREMELY heavy door being lifted by a MORTAL as a shield.. it's like God creating rock that he can't even lift it. Then some random John Doe finds it to carry in his pocket.
For those who dont know: Anivia is Ornns younger sibling.

Xolaani being a healer previously, and having her mind corrupted by time, makes sense as to why she is the way she is now. There's a fine line between healing someone, and making them live vicariously through your will. Doctors, in effect, control the means to live, which is a morbid way to think about the relationship. There's a vested purpose in becoming a god, or caretaker in the healing practices, because you lead people indirectly. It can even be due to the Darkin civil war that she controlled them, to prevent them from fighting and trying to fill the power vacuum that Nasus and Azir left. Now that her mind is corrupted, she finds any life unpacified and passioned as something to cure, all for the purpose to avoid conflict.

Wounded and desperate, Jun turned to the sealed weapon that Master Yi hid for all those years, which turned out to be the weapon host to the Darkin Xolaani, a hemomancer. Her body was quickly taken over, her spirit suppressed, and out from the lair came Xolaani. Xolaani escaped and is now wandering the world, enslaving the worthy in her quest for peace at any cost.
@@DSMister I would find it quite cool (but I know it looks like fan fiction) if jun was born in the cult but escaped and found refuge in master Yi, but when her master, her substitutional father was about to die she would let Xolaani control her so she can defeat Kayn and save Yi.
I like how in the lore, Ornn likes socializing with the mortals, but the whole demi god fight happend and Ornn had to abandon the people that follow him so that they don't get caught in his problem, but the very few that still worship him gets to actually have some of Ornn's help.
Thats wrong tho. Ornn never liked company. He shut himself in his mountain to forge and craft. Over the times a group of mortals started settling near his mountain. They too loved the forge and craft and tried to channel ornn in their actions. Ornn again didnt care. At least he didnt show them that he cared. Maybe a word of encouragement every once in a while. But he started to like the hearthblood. Then volibear came and asked ornn for weapons and armor which he refused. Voli proceeded to kill every last one of the hearthblood and ornn for the first time understood that he actually liked the hearth blood. So he shut himself in the mountain again and tried to never talk to another being again
@@mohammadnaghizade3544 didn't voli said to ornn that he will make the hearthblood forge his weapons and ornn attacked him and the hearthblood died as a result of their battle
Ok so from the quotes, card arts and the description of the cards it seems Kayn was after the Xolaani weapon since he wanted to master two darkin weapons and become even stronger. So he went to Yi's village with his followers and tried to force Yi to tell him where the weapon is at, but as an attempt to save Yi and the rest of the students Jun took the weapon in order to defeat Kayn, but she lost control to Xolaani so she "died". Seems kinda tragic because no matter what Jun always sacrifices herself, and Yi can't keep his students alive. That's why I like LoR in terms of lore, they have a very unique way of telling you the lore without forcing it on you, more like "discover it for yourself".
@@dizzyheads Well it's clear that in the Rhaast art the students die and he got a hold of the weapon. But I assume that the cannonic ending is that Jun picks the weapon, manages to fend off Kayn but loses control to Xolaani in the process.
If Kayne becomes the shadow assassin he fights Yi but if Kayne loses to Rhaast, Jun and all the students died. The shadow assassin path is probably closer to the Xolaani path since Rhaast kills Jun.
Xolaani: Aatrox, what happen to our oldest brother? Aatrox: A Noxian vampire dude ate him Xolaani: What? Screw it, put Rhaast on Rhaast: Suuuup? Xolaani: What happen to our oldest brother? Rhaast: Oh, yeah. A Noxian vamprie dude ate him. Wait, Aatrox knows more about it.

Yuumi and Norra's wholesome relationship almost makes me forget the parasite that Yuumi is in league Also Master Yi's quotes to Jun dying make me want to cry :(
The Improvise mechanic that the weaponmasters have let you choose an equipment from a pool of "weapons", none of them are actual weapons (bow, blades, hammers...) but instead janky stuff (a pan, a fishing rod, a goddamn fish...). So I'd say they kept the joke going

Ornn: How did you get that door Braum: Well long story short i just destroyed the mountain around it. Ornn: *old Freljordian cursing while throwing stuff in every direction*
jun got corrupted and turned into xolaani and in the case Yi takes down an enemy xolaani then that when you get the line, but this is all an if scenario it looks like.
Xolaani is such a creepy new villain. I’m genuinely confused as to why she isn’t a champion card, given how she seems to be the focus of the Darkin expansions
I'm pretty sure the lore states that she's a ascended healer of some sort and never became a darkin, she's the faceless god featured in the story and in the cinematic, then why the heck she's a darkin now
@@crisfernandez3411 Xolaani's description in LoR: "Shurima's Ascended were doomed the moment they took up arms against the Void. This was an enemy that could never be beaten, and while the god-warriors were all but guaranteed immortality, their minds were never as resilient. Madness consumed them all. Xolaani, once a beloved and gifted healer, began using her hemomantic powers to control her brethren, and soon enough, the hatred between her and Aatrox boiled over into civil war." This implies that not only was she an Ascended, she was the one who began the Darkin's hemomancy and Aatrox's direct rival
@@apossiblyhereticalalphaleg3595 surprised that she and vlad didn't have an interaction, cause if I recall correctly, vlad was partially involved in the darkin civil war.
Unfortunately for older champions they usually just use lines that are already in the game. And IMO the one they pick fits perfectly while being more original.
The light of icathia: A mighty staff holding the last embers of a destroyed civilization, powerful enough to drive back the Void Combat Cook: Ha ha emergency stirring spoon go brrrr
errr the back story is orrn make a dorr for a troll king (not trundle) because ornn lose a bet of drinking game, he had to make a door for the troll king's treasure cave, then orrn found out the troll king cheat and ornn make a door which cant be open after close.
after that a troll child lose in a dungeon and smh get stuck in the cave, braum is there to help, he cant open so he dig from the top of the mountain and open the cave from the inside. and he kept the door XD
Jax is that friend-of-the-DM player helping a bunch of first timers through their first campaign and it's lovely. Hell yeah you can use a frying pan as a weapon, roll for it!
Norra is my spirit animal/Yordle I like how she kind of teases her way to League of legends with her "Going home" like she went to wrong portal and popped out in Legends of Runeterra and not Summoners Rift 😁
Has anyone else noticed the drastic decline in interactions, like even in the past when they divided some champs in expansions (think sion and galio interactions) the first batch champs still had loads of interactions. It was a tad noticeable in the last expansion but like there are so few interactions that now we can combine all new champions into one video…
The story of yi and xolaani and ornn telling his follower to drop the name are one in the same. It gets me in the feels cause they both lost their followers. Ornn doesn’t wanna lose them again and yi didn’t want to take up students either.
So Yi had a chance at redemption in the form of his students but Kayn attacked and forced one of the students to use a Darkin weapon... That's pretty depressing
@@cocoearmuffs6207 If your friend is turned into a zombie and you kill that zombie, would you consider that you killed your friend or that you freed them from their horrible fate?
@@RafaelUmbra there's a different between those 2. Zombie can't think anymore while Jun still can while Xolaani taking over her body. So pretty much the second because Yi know, Jun doesn't want to do violence except it the last resort as that the lesson he teached to her. But if we talking about zombie Still second. But big regret when the vaccine to cure zombie exist.
It's really cool to hear what i assume is an actual Norwegian person voicing "adept weaponsmith". You almost never hear it, usually its an american trying a norwegian accent(which is almost impossible to do). Makes me proud.
Rhaast/Xolaani: All of runeterra will fear my eternal reign. Aatrox: Yeah ... about that. Rhaast/Xolaani: What is it? Aatrox: I may have forgotten to mention that our hosts have ... an expiration date." Rhaast/Xolaani: A what? Aatrox: Yeah, we only get to keep our bodies for about a month ... maybe less. Rhaast/Xolaani: 😐😑😐
No, Aatrox's hosts are not suitable hosts, they are just some random guys got caught by him on the battlefield, that's why his hosts died too soon and he must change the host frequently, they aren't strong enough. Kayn and Jun on the other hand are stronger and can tolerate the Darkin power, so they are suitable to be a host without expiration date.
Bro Rhaast is so unlucky his first host is really powerful he cant even take control and even if he takes control he waited hundreds of years for a month💀
It really depend on the darkin and the host, tbh. Aatrox is way too powerful and all his host are low quality. So he burn through it very fast, people like varus is less powerful and have more worthy host so they can keep it for longer. I assume the same for rhaast and xolaarni consider their host are very competent
Am I the only one who was thinking Jax and Fiorra would have an or Kayn and Zed would have an interaction or Zilean and Jax would have an interaction seeing as how they're one of few survivors from icathia (I think). I'm happy with what we got anyways :D
The fact that Jax travelled all across the world to find best warriors to fight against the void, and combat cook is one of them is absolutely hilarious.
god xolaani is such peak character design I pray that riot would make her a champ in league, theres so much they can do with her already big story in lor
He "tried" to protect it. Shadow order soldiers led by Kayn killed most of his students. Jun grew desperate and tried to use the darkin weapon. F in the chats for Jun.

They too loved the forge and craft and tried to channel ornn in their actions. Ornn again didnt care. At least he didnt show them that he cared. Maybe a word of encouragement every once in a while. But he started to like the hearthblood. Then volibear came and asked ornn for weapons and armor which he refused. Voli proceeded to kill every last one of the hearthblood and ornn for the first time understood that he actually liked the hearth blood. So he shut himself in the mountain again and tried to never talk to another being again
@@mohammadnaghizade3544 damn that's sad, along with story of Anivia pranking him to burn his own house, seems like Ornn just can't catch a break.
@@Wakkiau anivia was more like revenge for ornn cutting down her favorite perching tree to make his cabin though.
@@mohammadnaghizade3544 didn't voli said to ornn that he will make the hearthblood forge his weapons and ornn attacked him and the hearthblood died as a result of their battle
@@mohammadnaghizade3544 Ornn attacked Voli to be exact
Ok so from the quotes, card arts and the description of the cards it seems Kayn was after the Xolaani weapon since he wanted to master two darkin weapons and become even stronger. So he went to Yi's village with his followers and tried to force Yi to tell him where the weapon is at, but as an attempt to save Yi and the rest of the students Jun took the weapon in order to defeat Kayn, but she lost control to Xolaani so she "died". Seems kinda tragic because no matter what Jun always sacrifices herself, and Yi can't keep his students alive.
That's why I like LoR in terms of lore, they have a very unique way of telling you the lore without forcing it on you, more like "discover it for yourself".
Kayn transforms and either Kayn or Rhaast kills the students and Jun is forced to make a choice
@@dizzyheads Well it's clear that in the Rhaast art the students die and he got a hold of the weapon. But I assume that the cannonic ending is that Jun picks the weapon, manages to fend off Kayn but loses control to Xolaani in the process.
master Yi can't get a break"PROCEED TO MASSACARE MY INTIRE TEAM
She technically succeeded since am quiet sure master Yi was saved a t Jun's "life" cost
If Kayne becomes the shadow assassin he fights Yi but if Kayne loses to Rhaast, Jun and all the students died. The shadow assassin path is probably closer to the Xolaani path since Rhaast kills Jun.
Xolaani: Aatrox, what happen to our oldest brother?
Aatrox: A Noxian vampire dude ate him
Xolaani: What? Screw it, put Rhaast on
Rhaast: Suuuup?
Xolaani: What happen to our oldest brother?
Rhaast: Oh, yeah. A Noxian vamprie dude ate him. Wait, Aatrox knows more about it.
wait who is their older brother?

The Darkin that Vladimir served before devouring him
@@_Bale316 Where did you learn this?
@@MultiLightDark
Its in Vlad's lore, he was sold to a Darkin, then he became just as evil as them, then defeat his Master and devour him because the explosion when it died caused Vlad to go mad and blind
Now he's the Alucard Rip Off we all hate to see on the enemies team
Well, Vlad doesnt kill his master, he did the last blow in his back
1:20 is the most sibling moment of Ornn and Anivia
Yuumi and Norra's wholesome relationship almost makes me forget the parasite that Yuumi is in league
Also Master Yi's quotes to Jun dying make me want to cry :(
You know, I'm just a little bit disappointed that Jax doesn't say "imagine if I had a real weapon" but he's so cool
I mean the game kinda shows that with his weapon not boosting his stats at all.
The Improvise mechanic that the weaponmasters have let you choose an equipment from a pool of "weapons", none of them are actual weapons (bow, blades, hammers...) but instead janky stuff (a pan, a fishing rod, a goddamn fish...). So I'd say they kept the joke going
9:00 and onward everything he says is so sweet, I'm ready to give master Q for all the trauma his oneshotting did to me in League, he's so awesome here
Ornn: How did you get that door
Braum: Well long story short i just destroyed the mountain around it.
Ornn: *old Freljordian cursing while throwing stuff in every direction*
when your house has a door with 10 latches but also has normal windows
@@eduardokerber2931 Orrn, stroking his beard: Mm, Gud.
I never realized that that was Ornn's door. I should have. It literally has a ram on it.
I love the wholesome grandma vibe Norra has, it's heartwarming
When you realize that Master Yi lost Jun when they were fighting Kayn and his cultists.
jun got corrupted and turned into xolaani and in the case Yi takes down an enemy xolaani then that when you get the line, but this is all an if scenario it looks like.
Finally, ornn's opinion on Braum's "shield"
I hope there are more lines related to Xolaani. Her interactions with other Darkin could make a good story.
Xolaani is such a creepy new villain. I’m genuinely confused as to why she isn’t a champion card, given how she seems to be the focus of the Darkin expansions
There's lots of named cards that are as important as champions but are not
I'm pretty sure the lore states that she's a ascended healer of some sort and never became a darkin, she's the faceless god featured in the story and in the cinematic, then why the heck she's a darkin now
@@crisfernandez3411 she got the double A
@@crisfernandez3411 Xolaani's description in LoR:
"Shurima's Ascended were doomed the moment they took up arms against the Void. This was an enemy that could never be beaten, and while the god-warriors were all but guaranteed immortality, their minds were never as resilient. Madness consumed them all. Xolaani, once a beloved and gifted healer, began using her hemomantic powers to control her brethren, and soon enough, the hatred between her and Aatrox boiled over into civil war."
This implies that not only was she an Ascended, she was the one who began the Darkin's hemomancy and Aatrox's direct rival
@@apossiblyhereticalalphaleg3595 surprised that she and vlad didn't have an interaction, cause if I recall correctly, vlad was partially involved in the darkin civil war.

"Madam if it exist, I have it"
A good referance for my fellow man of cultures.
18:09 missed opportunity for Swain to say "I don't even know who you are"
"the few for the many" still hits hard though
Unfortunately for older champions they usually just use lines that are already in the game. And IMO the one they pick fits perfectly while being more original.
"pretty words won't unburn my house Anivia"
HOLY SHIT HE KNEW ALL ALONG!!!
Ornn having a mental breakdown about Braum & the door is my new favourite thing
I love Ornn. I could listen to him for days.
Kayn does not have interactions with zed??
My day is ruined
But is your disappointment immesurable ?
You think it would be a no brainer to have a interaction with zed but I guess not
Kayn got no interactions with zed or shen. Yi did no interactions with zed or shen. Jax doesn't say this one's for you kid. feelsbadman
@@redviego6714 he doesn't say the imagine if i had a real weapon line too, but i can forgive since he seems to believe in the stick
Rhaast without interactions with ascended too
I love that sound filter they used for Xolaani's voice! Sounds very distorted, almost like it's censored or something.
The light of icathia: A mighty staff holding the last embers of a destroyed civilization, powerful enough to drive back the Void
Combat Cook: Ha ha emergency stirring spoon go brrrr
I love how jax interacts with his followers
Braum strongest champ confirmed, he was able to rip off the hinges that wa made by ornn
errr the back story is orrn make a dorr for a troll king (not trundle) because ornn lose a bet of drinking game, he had to make a door for the troll king's treasure cave, then orrn found out the troll king cheat and ornn make a door which cant be open after close.
after that a troll child lose in a dungeon and smh get stuck in the cave, braum is there to help, he cant open so he dig from the top of the mountain and open the cave from the inside. and he kept the door XD
He didn't rip off the door, it was too strong.
He destroyed the mountain all around it instead.
@@tehrik0020 bruh 😂💀
@@user-rx3jh2od8p They are right though
Jax and his crew really push the rag tag group of people on an adventure.
Love it!
Master Yi: Violence should be a last resort
Also yi during the noxian invasion: Haha blade go brr
his town did get nuked because of it
I mean, I feel like when an invading army attacks your land and slaughters its people that would very well call for a “last resort”.
Wow, you literally ignored the entire context to why he says that
Because that was his last resort. You don't try to reason with noxus, as simple as that
@@dieptrieu6564 Exactly. Noxus at that time only understood Violence and blood.
Jax's followrrs feel like a DnD party and I love it.
Jax is that friend-of-the-DM player helping a bunch of first timers through their first campaign and it's lovely. Hell yeah you can use a frying pan as a weapon, roll for it!
I love how Ornn sounds like a grumpy old man. i mean, he is...
Braum : br-
Ornn : GIVE ME BACK MY DOOR NOW
Ornn when Enemy is Idle: “Take your time.”
Ornn when Player is Idle: *“Hurry up! I HAVE STUFF TO DO!”*
I love the detail given by Master Yi voice actor, making him having a chinese accent
Ornn shooing Anivia was something i didnt know i wanted to hear
11:20 Jax not pulling any punches even against an Emperor.
Can't get enough of the darkin voicelines! Can't wait to see even more in a couple of months!
Norra is my spirit animal/Yordle
I like how she kind of teases her way to League of legends with her "Going home"
like she went to wrong portal and popped out in Legends of Runeterra and not Summoners Rift 😁
Didn't expect Xolaani to be in this expansion, or a Darkin for that matter.
Has anyone else noticed the drastic decline in interactions, like even in the past when they divided some champs in expansions (think sion and galio interactions) the first batch champs still had loads of interactions. It was a tad noticeable in the last expansion but like there are so few interactions that now we can combine all new champions into one video…
I'm kinda sad, that Kayn didn't get any interactions with Zed or Shen
Ornn is just trying to live a humble life. And yet Braum just has his door
Ornn:"how did you get the door off its hinges"
Braum:i didn't
Ornn:?
Braum:I punched the mountain down till the door is the only thing left
ORNN INTERACTIONS ARE SO FUCKING FUNNY
The story of yi and xolaani and ornn telling his follower to drop the name are one in the same. It gets me in the feels cause they both lost their followers. Ornn doesn’t wanna lose them again and yi didn’t want to take up students either.
Yuumi finally finding Norra is enough to make a grown man cry ... And that's alright
I want to see a TV series about Braum and Ornn being roommates
Jolly mustache and Grumpy mustache
So Yi had a chance at redemption in the form of his students but Kayn attacked and forced one of the students to use a Darkin weapon... That's pretty depressing
yep and yi put her down(in the scenario that xolaani is a defeated enemy)
@@cocoearmuffs6207 If your friend is turned into a zombie and you kill that zombie, would you consider that you killed your friend or that you freed them from their horrible fate?
@@RafaelUmbra there's a different between those 2.
Zombie can't think anymore while Jun still can while Xolaani taking over her body. So pretty much the second because Yi know, Jun doesn't want to do violence except it the last resort as that the lesson he teached to her.
But if we talking about zombie
Still second. But big regret when the vaccine to cure zombie exist.
at least he still have wukong
1:25 Ornn really doesn't forgive Anivia after all those centuries.
There's so many interactions with their followers but very few with the actual champions we know and love.
Ornn and Yi interactions are from true gigachads
Kinda lame that Kayn doesn't have any interactions with Zed tbh
Master Yi in LoR "Violence should always be a last resort"
*Master Yi players in LoL charging into a 1v5 in enemy jungle* "Leroooooooooooooy"
It's really cool to hear what i assume is an actual Norwegian person voicing "adept weaponsmith". You almost never hear it, usually its an american trying a norwegian accent(which is almost impossible to do). Makes me proud.
I love Ornn's lines, perfect grumpy old man energy.
2:10 "let the name die boy, it means nothing anymore"
He sounds like Kratos lol haha
Kayn is that one villain that talks a lot but dies anyway.
Rhaast/Xolaani: All of runeterra will fear my eternal reign.
Aatrox: Yeah ... about that.
Rhaast/Xolaani: What is it?
Aatrox: I may have forgotten to mention that our hosts have ... an expiration date."
Rhaast/Xolaani: A what?
Aatrox: Yeah, we only get to keep our bodies for about a month ... maybe less.
Rhaast/Xolaani: 😐😑😐
No, Aatrox's hosts are not suitable hosts, they are just some random guys got caught by him on the battlefield, that's why his hosts died too soon and he must change the host frequently, they aren't strong enough. Kayn and Jun on the other hand are stronger and can tolerate the Darkin power, so they are suitable to be a host without expiration date.
Bro Rhaast is so unlucky his first host is really powerful he cant even take control and even if he takes control he waited hundreds of years for a month💀
@@shurlkr3594 Jun with Wuju training will definitely last but not forever and as for Kayn ... ehhhhhhhhhh.
@@yigitkalayc900 all previus rhaast "host" exploded on contact witht he scythe
It really depend on the darkin and the host, tbh. Aatrox is way too powerful and all his host are low quality. So he burn through it very fast, people like varus is less powerful and have more worthy host so they can keep it for longer. I assume the same for rhaast and xolaarni consider their host are very competent
I’m really disappointed Kayn is getting so few interactions honestly.
Am I the only one who was thinking Jax and Fiorra would have an or Kayn and Zed would have an interaction or Zilean and Jax would have an interaction seeing as how they're one of few survivors from icathia (I think). I'm happy with what we got anyways :D
9:23 I love Yi and Jun's interactions
Give him back his door man
*Xolaani dies*
Master Yi: "be at peace my student."
Okay alright Yi.
Orn is like that that cool grumpy grandpa that you want to hang out.
The fact that Jax travelled all across the world to find best warriors to fight against the void, and combat cook is one of them is absolutely hilarious.
Ornn and Braum interactions is just about doors, it's so hilarious
Aww ornns vault door lmao 🤣
i heard the ornn interactions and scrolled down to comments, was not disappointed
Ornn-Braum interaction:
BRAUM. DID YOU COMMIT DOMICILIAR VIOLATION?
Master Yi sounding like cypher is just something I didn't know I needed
Master yi: that's a good spot. G-G-Give me a corpse!
All throughout his voice lines here, Cypher is what I'm hearing
god xolaani is such peak character design
I pray that riot would make her a champ in league, theres so much they can do with her already big story in lor
Yi and depression
Truly a pair
The effect on Xolaani's voice is sooo good
So Yi is protecting a Darkin weapon from being claimed now? That's an interesting direction to move the character in.
and then he puts down his student taken over by said darkin weapon
He "tried" to protect it. Shadow order soldiers led by Kayn killed most of his students. Jun grew desperate and tried to use the darkin weapon. F in the chats for Jun.
while I do love how much Grumpy grandpa energy his lines have......anyone else wanted to hug Ornn when he talked about the Hearthblood? Poor guy, he really loved his community, despite his grumpiness
no kayn and zed interaction ?
hm that doesnt seem right
11:31 "got a whetstone? Got to sharpen my... Lamp" Ahhh i see, jax is a fellow monster hunter player
Oh my god, Orn wants his door back, ahhaha
