      Rek'sai, Giant Broodmother of doom, you never see her before she is directly under you and probably just ate your mount / you.
      Skarner, not only can he see her as if the ground wasn't there, he is big enough to crush her like a human would a mouse. Also he could literally manipulate the earth to spit her out just to make it easier to get ahold of her.
      Maybe that is why she sticks around Shurima and not venturing much further out. She is the big fish there, she is not even a pebble elsewhere, and she is aware of that.

      I think it means that Skarner tribe originally was around Shurima and Ixtal border. He saw the Ixtalians settlers, and move in deeper into Ixtal after some time to create the capital, leaving his tribe that is now to the west of him. That's why it said the Humans came from the east.

    The race that Skarnee is from should have unlimited growth potential, but since they live underground they never get too big, maybe still very large like bus or train size, but not the size of Skarner. The reason he is as big as he is, is bc he lived above ground for so long and was able to grow freely, however he has stopped growing since he returned to the underground

      I like this idea, it has a real life point to be based off, and gives more depth to their race.
      The brakener clearly didn't had much reason to stay aboveground and by how Skarner reacted to how "people were there one second and gone the next" their sense of time perception is very different from ours, Skarner is an outlier not the norm, it even makes him seem more special in comparison.

    the monsterverse in ruinterra sounds funny with the hollow earth idea. I mean the rest of the clans have to be somewhere, and if Skarner is the only one people have seen, they likely are in a space below ground. Could be a fun place to make cho real in ruinterra. I like the idea of cho being Bel's pet project to destroy the world if she fails to take it over, but idea of void born being in hollow earth and that is where cho has been all this time would be pretty interesting.

      @@dracotoy well it can still work, not that the void has to be a weird area in hollow runterra. It’s just another place the corruption reached and some void born spilled into. Given how huge skarner kin are likely to grow, it’s not a stretch to assume something like Cho could grow to an enormous size in that place as well. Given what Cho even is and grows the more they eat, it’s only really the ocean or hollow earth that could justify an existence like them could go unnoticed while growing larger and larger until it’s a threat to the world.

  • @letstec
    @letstec 2 месяца назад +6

    My biggest problem with the new story is that they seemingly only did this to make the arcane cast and other Piltovian champions look better. I mean Jayce and Victor should know where they come from as they are probably the only ones buying them. That would also make Victor who is a fan favourite a big hypocrite and everyone else at one point would either have to throw their weapons away or continue using the enslaved half-dead/undead/dead Brackern. So instead they cut Skarners and the Brackerns connection with the Hexcrystals and turned one of the only champions in League who suffered from oppresion into a paranoid, almost schizophrenic, kaiju-sized tyrant, who basically enslaved all of the Ixtal and I guess would prefer to kill them then let them have their own free will.

    Considering the size of Runeterra map as we know it so far, and how massive Skarner is, it is literaly to assume that the map of Runeterra we have now is probably like 5-10% of the actual planet, because to sustain whole several clans of these massives beings, the planet would either have to be massive, OR, it's like spiders, where the majority of them perish before reaching a size as big as Skarner

    7:30 Just because Ixtali played significant role in creating first Ascended, doesn't mean they were part of Shuriman Empire, so it's not a plothole in my opinion. Maybe there were diplamatic allies until Shurima decided to start conquering, maybe some Ixtali people left their city and joined Shurima first, or maybe Ixtali people were kidnapped and forced into helping.

    • @Kaelyn91
      @Kaelyn91 Месяц назад

      It is a plothole because the Ixtali people are the settlers from the east. They were nowhere near Shurima.
      "When Skarner was older, it was through these vibrations that he detected a dramatic shift in the continent, marked by the arrival of settlers from the east...
      He surveyed these "Ixtali" people...."
      They were the ones settling from the opposite side of Shurima. Necrit sort of confused things by mixing up his East and West, methinks. So for the Ascended to cause Skarner such consternation and concern they would necessarily have to exist prior to or closely in sync with the arrival of the Ixtali settlers from the East.

      @OKIGorgon Месяц назад

It would be major oversight on his part to not mention people going missing as they're his "project" and he'd already been cited as saving their lives much earlier in the story than when the Ascended are even mentioned. I won't deny that it's definitely possible, but if that does turn out to be the case it'll be a major flaw in his story in general, just from a writing standpoint.

    I feel like having the Void directly do something to the Brackern, and this leading him to those years of isolation -> the world is now changing and the Ixtal that he once knew is long gone -> he must learn to overcome the pain of the past (a send up to his old personality) and advise/lead Ixtal before it makes the same mistakes or worse. You still have a source of conflict, but he's still a fundamentally compassionate character who's not being presented as a problem Qiyana or Milio will have to "solve"

    >Ixtal portion says that they partook in the first ascension
    >Whereas Skarner's portion says he watched the ascended fight for land before Ixtal even joined them
    My Headcanon is just that each portion of the lore is written in the way of the POV of each of the characters and/or civilizations
    Ixtal people saying they helped with the first ascension except they never noticed the ascended people that Skarner did see (I mean considering the size of skarner he could see things way far than humans would)
    again, just a headcanon
    As for the last sentence "Even if he becomes the root of their destruction" my read is that he'll protect Ixtal at whatever cost, even if that leads to the city coming down by itself
    Similarly to stories/series/movies where they show overprotection, where the one that is being overprotected starts to crumble in despair and desperation at the lack of freedom, like how you woudl go insane by staying in a single room and nothing more
    if Skarner forces Ixtal people to remain, the civilization may go into insanity and/or cause the Ixtal people to hate him and come to an act of war
    that the sentence is less of Skarner's POV into destroying the city, and more in a narrating POV where the city may come to hell if Skarner enforces people to stay.

    About the Ixtali contribution to the creation of the ascended... maybe it was a secret project from them.
    Sure, the new lore says that Skarner can read the "waves" in the earth to observe the world, but that doesnt mean he knows all (and even if he says he knows, remember to take all a character say about themselves with care), and going by the fact that Skarner sense of time flow seems very different than the human one, maybe when he finally noticed the ascended, it was after Ixtal started to rethink their involvement with them.
    And i think it is pretty clear that when Skarner noticed the ascended Ixtal civilization was already well in its tracks, so i don't think this is that big of "plothole" if even it is one.
    We don't know all the details that go around the writers train of thought, LoL lore is very good but it doesnt have the same cohesion as a book, a few considerations can be put in place.
