Actually the only hero that says aghanim scepter is faceless void. Sometimes when you buy an aghs on him he will say "ah aghanim scepter!"...this is makesense because void is from a realm outside of time so aghanim s magic to controll the memory of hero doesnt applied to void
"i haven't spawned yet." -slark's last words. Is Slark virgin? thats some real questions here. (also my fav quote of rubick is " *You will be forgotten tomorrow* " says while lasthitting a creep)
Pugna punishes you for casting a Spell so maybe the spell stealer who can steal and cast any spell was just angry at pugna for doing so. I mean that nether ward is annoying.
+partha pratim upadhyaya Exactly, why would Rubick hate Pugna if he was his father? would rubick's response will contain grief rather than anger? I mean if you saw your father who is one if not "The greatest mage" ever now turned into a midget skeleton whose ultimate skill can be describe as "gay" wouldn't that make you sad?
My theory is rubic has no hate for the beings of the nether reaches... Its such that pugna restrics the use of magic and necrophos is the harbringer of rot and decay... So thats what rubic says to necro... Moreover I dont think pugna is his father bcoz of pugna's lore....
Kenneth Beltran what if rubick doesnt know that his father was turned into pugna...what if he just know that his father was die in the nether world without knowing whos the actual killer of him. I mean pugna hates spellcaster alot almost like AM so rubick just assumed that pugna was the one who killed his father
There's no way there is a connection between those two entities, but given that both are dark wizards and were corrupted... The very possibility makes me excited...
I'd dig Sven getting his own video if it's all good. He's got a surprising amount of connections across the dotaverse, and I'd have to wonder if a Loregasm would talk about the grown shipping with him and CM, in and around talking about his meranth-nature, rivalry with Juggs, and so on.
Aghanim isn't Pugna. Pugna is a child and has virtually no interest in knowledge, in fact he almost avoids it. Instead of learning a spell that would increase his own power he created a ward, a simple stand still ability that makes enemies hurt themselves in combat. Aghanim would have no need of such a spell, no enemy could defeat him, defensive spells are simply unnecessary. However for Pugna's lore, Aghanim's scepter completely removes a cool-down from an ability, meaning that Pugna has some untold connection with the scepter that no other hero does? Even Invoker, the "most powerful" wizard in terms of knowledge, could not master the scepter to such extent that it completely removes an abilities capped use. Maybe Rubic has a hate for Pugna due to the fact Pugna is an abomination to magic, if i'm correct Pugna powers only come from Nether-Relic's he stole after completely murdering his entire race, He uses magic to cause nothing but mischief instead of using it for a purpose that's useful, or maybe to gain knowledge. Pugna quite literally insults magic and both Rubic and Aghanim's legacy, due to the fact his powers aren't mastered, or even his. Good video, I love the lore shit.
Marley Budd you are right dude. But... did you forgget cause Sky Mage had 0 cd on his ultimate before the rework? How about that.. Rubick seems to look at SM like somekind of unseen mage " Dragonus, you bring sorrcery from the sky, how wonderfull" . So i don t think your theory is 100% legit. Sorry for bad english. I m still learning :D
The case could certainly be made and looking at Pugna's stat gains you can see that as lvl 1 (a boy newly infused with this soul) his int isn't amazing but at lvl 25 he wins the award for most int by over 20 points due to his insane intgain
dude u are completely wrong necro and pugnas magic destroy the user and it's surroundings so somehow rubick stole their magic (which also explains why he is twitching all the time) and probably got paralyzed or mind blown
I love how you filled in the niche that other major Game Theory channels have glanced over, and craft pretty convincing theories from the in game lore.
My best lore teller and explainer. Thanks for giving us your head cannons, theories, and telling us the whole lore and making us understand it! Thanks Sir Action Slacks I'm truly grateful
Another reason could be that Aghanim had mastered a time manipulation magic. He desired to learn the beginning of all magics that interested him. Travelled back in time and met with various legendary characters of the past, he realized that just observing them is too boring. In order to catalyze the growth of their spells, he gave them the Aghanim's scepter. Now, generations after them remembered the tales of their bravery and the legendary item of their company. So why it has many names.
Broo, please dont ever stop doing lore videos, ive watched every lorgasm video untill here, and im still going. I really appreciate your hard work and effort. Thank you so much sir 🙏
slacks, its been a while since i started watching your vids and i always forget to comment something somewhat important for me and the others that i show your work. Please, please, please put subtitles, at least on the loregasm ones. i get what you say preety well, but i would love to fully understand the story told by you. No need to be in other languages, just in english would be perfect already. By the way, love your vids :D
Rubick steal spells with his spell, he made a spell to steal spell not learn them. Because it says 'stolen spell' at the buff icon and the ult name is 'spell steal'. And Rubick has a telekinesis ability so he can move an object with his mind. Maybe... Just maybe, he uses the liquid just to make his mind busy, because he is not dropping a drop of liquid, he instead keeping it there and moving it, always moving it. It's different than Pugna and Viper, they can't control the liquid, the liquid always stream from their body, but they can always have the liquid because they are not human, they can produces the liquid and Rubick can not produce the liquid so he keeps it not to drop. And, Rubick passive ability is magic resistance. The liquid could be a 'good gas' to protect him from a powerful magic. Not a toxic like Pugna's or Viper's has. He create a liquid to protect himself and his mate from powerful magic because he has to make the enemy use the spell before he can steal it. And he knows there's a lot of spell that too powerful for him to deal with, so he made the liquid. Well that was my thoughts, Rubick is my favorite hero in Dota 2, I really like his look, personality, and his abilities. I really liked Rubick A LOT. Sorry for my bad English and don't mind to give what you guys think about my thoughts. Thanks for reading my comments :)
"Rubick studies the trace magical essence of one enemy hero, learning the secrets of the last spell the hero cast. Rubick can use this spell as his own for several minutes or until he dies." He literally studies their spell and recasts it, and by design of his mechanics (having built in spell amp and aghs being a common purchase on him) he's implied to use the recast ability better than the person who made it. He learns it, masters it, and improves it, all in an instant. That is how he is presented.
Varell I say this as a person who only wishes well , you do not have the intellectual capacity to decipher lore dont put out your theories in the open it will invite ridicule .
This episode is when it became a real lore show instead of a one-off that worked and kept going. Well done both in editing visually and aurally but also well done in scripting and delivery.
I really liked the link you made with Rubick having ADHD mannerisms such as losing interest and getting bored. Made a lot of sense and made the hero more endearing.
Great stuff. I wonder if his "ticks" could have something to do with guarding himself from corrupting nether magic. He has to lose memory of a spell since his power is drawn from the nether, if he consumes too much he would lose himself completely like Aghanim. He has to reset himself periodically to guard against that inevitability. He may be very close to mastering nether if he can successfully guard against it like that. Fun to think about this stuff. Cheers dude. Hey btw please do more lore stuff. I love it.
Two of my favorite heroes, but their lore is really straight forward. Two sisters, separated by their folks, trained, and now they're powerful. Perhaps he could do a video on who they tie in with? Wyvern and Tusk seem to know CM, and Lina has unique chats with a lot fire based heroes.
Good head cannon but it states right here that "Pugna, a mere thirteen months of age, was but one candidate among the local brats" So yea Pugna was 1 year and a month old when they started a ritual which decides who should become the Grandmaster,So it could have never been Aghanim
Arsenal Magus was probably Invoker's old title when he had 27 spells back in Dota 1. Not indicated in Dota 1 but probably produced to reference his old skills.
I have to say Slacks, all your LoreGasm videos are amazing and amaze me over and over again, in fact, they quite inspire me to actually make some stories ( On other games ) by myself, also thanks for not speaking too fast, that really help to understand all you say. Also I vote for Chaos Knight for the next video.
Just one of the four fundamental "gravity" from the fundamental plane, mastered the power to control gravity, had a powerful bracers he got from a human alchemist, which he later turned into one of his eidolons If you see the buff effect on the eidolons, you should see a red circle which says "this unit is under your control" which is pretty weird And yes, it should be interesting to have a lore on these fundamentals
Jake, FUCK. I feel like you just had your way with me! This video was a ride from start to finish. I was a fan since the quiz in the car with the pros at the summit. But this, your energy is SO impressive. GREAT fucking job!!!!
Khaz Modan from what i remember he was suppose to guard reality/time until weaver fucked around and screwed up the weave of time and created everything. Idk. Its been awhile since ive checked the lore on those two.
This has to be your weakest submission yet Slacks, I loved all of them aside from this one. You didnt even go into the other responses he has, the locations mentioned or the text on the items he had. Nor did you mention that Karl was the only magus that didnt show up to his challenge because he was "above it" and up his own ass. Pugna is a terrible guess on who aghanim is, his lore doesnt even suggest anything close to him being Aghanim.None of his responses suggest it and theres no responses for rubick either, now if you say that the hero wasnt added and the such.Well theres always been responses for heros that arent in the game when the hero was added. Example; Sven had a response that says "I hope it didnt come to this" or Antimage back when he was the brother of terrorblade had a response of his "brother" way before it was added. Rubicks dislike of the two other green heros is because they're pure destruction and pure death, Necro is a psuedo grim reaper who kills all, Including new sources of logic by just existing.Not to mention this guys a walking plauge, the pox he was infected with doesnt hurt him but hes a carrier which threatens everyone. Also both theese heros, Pugna and Necro are the only ones who can reach an etheral state on demand without the use of etheral items. Then you got a temper tantrum giving sadist whos bros with Clinz aka Pugna.Who once had a pet named viper of sorts... Lion is a demon but his talents, skills and magics arent all ment around destruction harm and pain.Turning someone into an etheral pressence without asking then sucking the very essence of a soul is painfull.Blowing them with fowl nether magics when their physical shell/body is turned etheral is painfull. A penalty giving ward that zaps any future magics is also painfull, Pugna is the Antimage/Mage killer thats a hothead. Rubicks other colours are a dark purple/black/blue depending on the items he has.Not to mention his gear is always travel gear, or gear he uses for entertainment or entertaining people.He changes his outfit depending on the region hes in, just like his fathers scepter. Pugna doesnt even recognize his "greatest master pieace" If he was Aghanim.The only other bone guy in the game is clinkz who remembers quite well who he used to be. This went to such a wierd spot that I wasnt expecting. Hopefully you'll come back to this one day or just bury it under your better works. Extra note: I never found rubick actually bound by "spells" hes just bound by techniques, he can still steal fury swipes or the fist of flame.Personally I think he is a creation of sorts by aghanim that roams to find his father and what happens to it, the ancients dragged him in as much as hes a jumpy fella.I see him as someone who cant remember, who has a problem with memory and doesn't remember what happens to his father, so he wants to know and the ancients lure him in that way. The whole response to his fathers scepter was more like familiarity and nostalgia then anything else.Rubick loves magic, he loves to learn, he always forgets, people dont forget him even if he forgets them.
You even mentioned in there that pugna had a pet viper, is this not the being that slacks thinks aghanim was studying? He wasn't stating it as fact he just said that's what he thinks and explains why, no need to have a go at him for it
Thing is we don't know ANYTHING about Aghanim.As much as I do concur slacks'es three ancient/Three colour ideas makes sense.If you look into anything related to pugna, Pugna and vipers interactions. Apparently viper studied and learned from the great wizard who imprisoned him.The only thing he could've learned from Pugna is to make his toxin more painful and lethal.Not to mention his imprisonment would probably be a sort of torture. Im not bashing him, just asking for him to put more time and love and not rush his loregasms. His previous ones had alot more heart and soul in them, his head cannon is easily sinkable as I demonstrated.
The Aghanim - Pugna link could be like this - Pugna's lore: "In the realm of Pugna's birth, near the vents of the Nether Reaches, there stood a lamasery devoted to the Arts of Oblivion, which drew its power from the nether energies. The Grandmaster of the temple compound had himself passed into Oblivion several years prior, leaving his academy without a leader." The Grandmaster who died could be Aghanim. And then Pugna replaces the Grandmaster if you see in Punga's lore.. so obviously Rubick can be pissed off that a lame dude replaced his dad in that realm.
Eh i see where you coming from but i don't think you "skinned" his head cannon at all nothing you said disproves what he said especially when your argument is literally just your own head cannon. The TL:DR of your comment is - i have a different head cannon so your's is wrong *insert compliment so i'm the good guy
This is a valid connection I guess, assuming this is what the fate aghanim in the end.He doesnt sound like a "temple" guy but thats just my view. Grandmaster does sound like something fitting for Aghanim and his son being quite happy/proud about being called GRAND/GRANDEST Magus would be sensible but still grabbing at ropes.
I absolutely love the loregasms episodes!!! I think you should re-upload this videos to dotacinema, that way new players and people that doesn't know your channel could appreciate the amazing lore of dota and learn from your infinite wisdom oh great loremaster!!
Rule 34 is a bonus though. Since VS is kinda hot. I wish we could see her winged form.. *coughs* Arcana *coughs* VS x Sky Arcana Bundle would be so good.
I waited long for this :'D please slacks, keep doing this videos I love them and wait patiently for them, please, please, please, do the void loregasm, that's my favorite hero in the lore
One thing I think is worth mentioning about Rubick is Meepo's responses towards him, asking if he'd ever be interested in selling some of his magic gems or saying that he can give him more if he ever wants (given that Meepo is a digger and has found his fair share of magic gems). Meepo also has a great interest in mining Radiant Ore, not sure if there's any connection to Rubick there, but I think it's fair to say Rubick's gems are pretty significant if they're on par with Radiant Ore in Meepo's eyes. Perhaps these aided him in his talent for quickly learning (and forgetting) others' magic. Also if this post isn't obvious, I'm a Meepo fan and would love a vid on him soon.
I just rewatch this Loregasm, the headcannon theory makes a great stroy or comic when rubick gets his arcana. Its like a story when his Arcana comes out the nether region rises as the third ancient and once the event is over it will be weakened but not die but weakened and go back under again. The one who gives him power for the Arcana is Aghanim which is in a Human body but possessed
Pugna as Aghanim? haha that was hilarious bro! I think it's more plausible if Aghanim started to create the unknown magic underground and became one with it. That's why it took so long to surface because it has no vessel. After he created the scepter, he got bored and looked for new source of magic but couldn't find it so he created the neather himself. The third ancient is the corrupted Aghanim himself.
Wraith King. He used to be really all in with the reds and stuff, but since being split from his bones and turned into a Wraith he's REALLY GREEN. I'd love to see more discussion on where everyone fits into the Lore, especially since his placement could say a lot about the state of Kingship in DotA2 right now, with the amount of skeletons muckin' about in the battle between Ancients.
I was going to get work done and hopefully sleep early but I discovered these loregasm videos :v Cant wait to see the remaining heroes! Keep it up!! I would like to help you with subtitles in Spanish so more people can see these... I would only ask that you do Enigma soon in return :3
slacks can you go back to this loregasm especially with this year's summer event
Agree, please revisit.
Seconded
Agreed
Yep. Please do this!

Actually the only hero that says aghanim scepter is faceless void. Sometimes when you buy an aghs on him he will say "ah aghanim scepter!"...this is makesense because void is from a realm outside of time so aghanim s magic to controll the memory of hero doesnt applied to void

That or he's seen it and its power from where it was act on this world he'd later enter in.

Do a lore on the Spirit Brothers
Earth spirit,Ember spirit and Storm spirit
YESSS
And Juggernaut
Shouldn’t do it until the fourth is revealed.
spirit brother more like spirit breaker
Also the panda spirits too if that has any relation
If this had come out before the arcana vote Rubick would've won in a landslide. Awesome work Slacks
holy fuck, an arcane/nether realm hybrid based arcana, fuck
Nope, still would have been rigged

Hey man your lore videos are so cool I just got into dota and this is making me love it even more
do bounty hunter
Twamonkey the great hunter from distant sand of Qaldin
yasss
You never fail to surprise me with this vídeos. Seriously people like Sir Action Slacks are what make DotA so unique.
Make invo loregasm
squeaker steelseries yes yes make invo
Jake, FUCK.
I feel like you just had your way with me!
This video was a ride from start to finish. I was a fan since the quiz in the car with the pros at the summit. But this, your energy is SO impressive. GREAT fucking job!!!!
Please do loregasm about faceless void.Is he a king,what is nemesis stones, is that somehow related to jewel of aeons?
Khaz Modan from what i remember he was suppose to guard reality/time until weaver fucked around and screwed up the weave of time and created everything. Idk. Its been awhile since ive checked the lore on those two.
We want Crystal Slacks/Action Maiden voicing one of these loregasms!! Thanks for the Aghanim lore episode! Finally helped me clear up some doubts.
This has to be your weakest submission yet Slacks, I loved all of them aside from this one.
You didnt even go into the other responses he has, the locations mentioned or the text on the items he had.
Nor did you mention that Karl was the only magus that didnt show up to his challenge because he was "above it" and up his own ass.
Pugna is a terrible guess on who aghanim is, his lore doesnt even suggest anything close to him being Aghanim.None of his responses suggest it and theres no responses for rubick either, now if you say that the hero wasnt added and the such.Well theres always been responses for heros that arent in the game when the hero was added.
Example; Sven had a response that says "I hope it didnt come to this" or Antimage back when he was the brother of terrorblade had a response of his "brother" way before it was added.
Rubicks dislike of the two other green heros is because they're pure destruction and pure death, Necro is a psuedo grim reaper who kills all, Including new sources of logic by just existing.Not to mention this guys a walking plauge, the pox he was infected with doesnt hurt him but hes a carrier which threatens everyone.
Also both theese heros, Pugna and Necro are the only ones who can reach an etheral state on demand without the use of etheral items.
Then you got a temper tantrum giving sadist whos bros with Clinz aka Pugna.Who once had a pet named viper of sorts...
Lion is a demon but his talents, skills and magics arent all ment around destruction harm and pain.Turning someone into an etheral pressence without asking then sucking the very essence of a soul is painfull.Blowing them with fowl nether magics when their physical shell/body is turned etheral is painfull.
A penalty giving ward that zaps any future magics is also painfull, Pugna is the Antimage/Mage killer thats a hothead.
Rubicks other colours are a dark purple/black/blue depending on the items he has.Not to mention his gear is always travel gear, or gear he uses for entertainment or entertaining people.He changes his outfit depending on the region hes in, just like his fathers scepter.
Pugna doesnt even recognize his "greatest master pieace" If he was Aghanim.The only other bone guy in the game is clinkz who remembers quite well who he used to be.
This went to such a wierd spot that I wasnt expecting.
Hopefully you'll come back to this one day or just bury it under your better works.
Extra note: I never found rubick actually bound by "spells" hes just bound by techniques, he can still steal fury swipes or the fist of flame.Personally I think he is a creation of sorts by aghanim that roams to find his father and what happens to it, the ancients dragged him in as much as hes a jumpy fella.I see him as someone who cant remember, who has a problem with memory and doesn't remember what happens to his father, so he wants to know and the ancients lure him in that way.
The whole response to his fathers scepter was more like familiarity and nostalgia then anything else.Rubick loves magic, he loves to learn, he always forgets, people dont forget him even if he forgets them.
You even mentioned in there that pugna had a pet viper, is this not the being that slacks thinks aghanim was studying? He wasn't stating it as fact he just said that's what he thinks and explains why, no need to have a go at him for it
Thing is we don't know ANYTHING about Aghanim.As much as I do concur slacks'es three ancient/Three colour ideas makes sense.If you look into anything related to pugna, Pugna and vipers interactions.
Apparently viper studied and learned from the great wizard who imprisoned him.The only thing he could've learned from Pugna is to make his toxin more painful and lethal.Not to mention his imprisonment would probably be a sort of torture.
Im not bashing him, just asking for him to put more time and love and not rush his loregasms. His previous ones had alot more heart and soul in them, his head cannon is easily sinkable as I demonstrated.
The Aghanim - Pugna link could be like this -
Pugna's lore: "In the realm of Pugna's birth, near the vents of the Nether Reaches, there stood a lamasery devoted to the Arts of Oblivion, which drew its power from the nether energies. The Grandmaster of the temple compound had himself passed into Oblivion several years prior, leaving his academy without a leader."
The Grandmaster who died could be Aghanim. And then Pugna replaces the Grandmaster if you see in Punga's lore.. so obviously Rubick can be pissed off that a lame dude replaced his dad in that realm.
Eh i see where you coming from but i don't think you "skinned" his head cannon at all nothing you said disproves what he said especially when your argument is literally just your own head cannon. The TL:DR of your comment is - i have a different head cannon so your's is wrong *insert compliment so i'm the good guy
This is a valid connection I guess, assuming this is what the fate aghanim in the end.He doesnt sound like a "temple" guy but thats just my view.
Grandmaster does sound like something fitting for Aghanim and his son being quite happy/proud about being called GRAND/GRANDEST Magus would be sensible but still grabbing at ropes.
Coming back after this summers event knowing what Aganims truly looks like. Pretty good stuff
The spirits!!
I am so happy that you are doing all the heroes! Keep up the good work!

I absolutely love the loregasms episodes!!! I think you should re-upload this videos to dotacinema, that way new players and people that doesn't know your channel could appreciate the amazing lore of dota and learn from your infinite wisdom oh great loremaster!!
i want a tv series of this FOR REAL like this if you wanted too hosted by SIRACTIONSLACKS :)
this loregasm videos are amazing really well done
Techies
As a huge Rubick fan, I absolutely loved this episode. Gave me chills at times! Good job, Slacks.
Vengeful x Sky romance please.. Rule 34
Pure romance would suffice... no to rule 34 please...seek elsewhere xD
Rule 34 is a bonus though. Since VS is kinda hot.
I wish we could see her winged form.. *coughs* Arcana *coughs*
VS x Sky Arcana Bundle would be so good.
Does sky have a human like penis or a corkscrew penis like a duck
Another great one! Thanks, Mr. Slacks. Keep 'em comin'. Can't wait till the next one.
slacks should be a valve employee
I waited long for this :'D please slacks, keep doing this videos I love them and wait patiently for them, please, please, please, do the void loregasm, that's my favorite hero in the lore
do TA please
Yes please!! so many Questions (hidden Ones, her Relation to Jugg, Her Immortal Weapons etc etc)
intro never fails to give me the chills
Maybe Rubick is a puppet
Controlled by his creator/father aghanim that's my theory
I like the geeking you put into this series, it's actually great opinions, with a lot of sense , well done :D
WE NEED MORE OF THESE STAT!
you never fail to blow my mind Mr.Kanner. Great job.
Man, this is something great you are doing. Thanks!
One thing I think is worth mentioning about Rubick is Meepo's responses towards him, asking if he'd ever be interested in selling some of his magic gems or saying that he can give him more if he ever wants (given that Meepo is a digger and has found his fair share of magic gems). Meepo also has a great interest in mining Radiant Ore, not sure if there's any connection to Rubick there, but I think it's fair to say Rubick's gems are pretty significant if they're on par with Radiant Ore in Meepo's eyes. Perhaps these aided him in his talent for quickly learning (and forgetting) others' magic.
Also if this post isn't obvious, I'm a Meepo fan and would love a vid on him soon.
I love the idea of having a green scepter that gives something like aganim's
Keep up the great stuff Slacks. These are my favourite videos on youtube!!!
Love you slacks, keep this series up it's my fav
Wow this series is so good
I just discovered it yesterday and I already watched it all
Love u slacks
I really enjoyed this. I can't wait for the Loregasm's of Invoker, Spectre and Enigma.
pls continue slacks.. these videos actually calms me down when im stressed out on college lol..
and please show more interaction between heroes..
I'll wait for the day I get to hear your headcanon on silencer, slacks. Love me some lore!
This lore was so mind blowing!!! So my so I played Rubick in a rank.....
I soon fed 0-17 and went to low prio from all the reports I got
Siractionslacks u get me exicted everytime you come with lore. Pls do it for all heroes before dota becomes dead. Marvelous creations
I just rewatch this Loregasm, the headcannon theory makes a great stroy or comic when rubick gets his arcana. Its like a story when his Arcana comes out the nether region rises as the third ancient and once the event is over it will be weakened but not die but weakened and go back under again. The one who gives him power for the Arcana is Aghanim which is in a Human body but possessed
the 11 member of magic counselor name is mentioned in invoker speech when he use em
Please do a lore of those creeps
i read somewhere that rubick is shaking like that cause his body is already bottled up with magic same as to invoker's hands shaking.
Pugna as Aghanim? haha that was hilarious bro! I think it's more plausible if Aghanim started to create the unknown magic underground and became one with it. That's why it took so long to surface because it has no vessel. After he created the scepter, he got bored and looked for new source of magic but couldn't find it so he created the neather himself. The third ancient is the corrupted Aghanim himself.
Wraith King. He used to be really all in with the reds and stuff, but since being split from his bones and turned into a Wraith he's REALLY GREEN.
I'd love to see more discussion on where everyone fits into the Lore, especially since his placement could say a lot about the state of Kingship in DotA2 right now, with the amount of skeletons muckin' about in the battle between Ancients.
I was going to get work done and hopefully sleep early but I discovered these loregasm videos :v Cant wait to see the remaining heroes! Keep it up!! I would like to help you with subtitles in Spanish so more people can see these... I would only ask that you do Enigma soon in return :3
