Fun fact. The guy with the dreads is a time manipulator in the game universe, which is why he glitches in the video, and is why the beat reverses in that slow part.
Henrik Olsen dope! I’ll love in depth this video is with the games lore🤠 that attention to detail is part of why I find this video incredible🤟
@@ShatteredFocusProductions It's pretty clever actually. Most of the characters display some element of their in-game versions but it's fairly subtle. The DJ is a wind-themed samurai in the game, so he uses a wind turbine in his act. The girl who forms from mist is a wraith and can dissolve into a cloud of souls. Hoop girl is an Aztec-style princess with a glaive, and white-haired korean girl is a ninja, though she doesn't really show it off this time.
Quite a few of the lyrics are also references to culture terms used by the community's content creators, such as "what do you mean?" and "run it back".
frustratedsquirrel oh? This videos way more rich than I first thought👀 I’ll have to get into LOL lore! Big fan of worlds with expansive lore🤠
@@frustratedsquirrel tbh doe ninja = korea doesnt work like that we got our own stuff but i understand some people thinking ninjas being in asia.
Fun fact : ninjas werent like the soldiers other people think. At that time most japanese were under 135 cm and "ninjas" were considered as "vile"
cause they assassinate people at night not like the samurais.
Also with samurais, they were mostly under 135 cm as well
so.... if u actually see the LIVE samurais and ninjas.... aint that cool
korea dont have a real "ninja" thing but yes we did have assassins and theres also similar thing called
화랑 (which means flower knight if u direct translate...) = Hwarang
which was in silla dynasty and did same job as "ninja" and "samurais" of japan.
For other countries which existed in ancient korea like
Baekje and Goguryeo
we not really sure if they had some groups like silla's hwarang.
(Goguryeo baekje and silla merges and becomes Goryeo)
They chose Paris as the location because the Worlds Championship games were held there this year
hopeful hiccups oh really? Thats cool! I love these details in music videos🤠
Only final
I thought it was also because the theme and lyrics of "bigger than giants" and they were looking up towards the Eiffel Tower
I love how he goes like "wait, what?" when it transitions to Ekko's second verse.
91ᴢᴍ0ɢᴀʟᴏʀᴇᴇ.ʙᴏᴛ 😂
91ᴢᴍ0ɢᴀʟᴏʀᴇᴇ.ʙᴏᴛ can you blame me?🤠
@@ShatteredFocusProductions I love it because i had the same reaction with a loud "wHaT HApPEnD??" lmao
"the only thing in live action that would be difficult would be teleporting around"
Riot: Hold my beer
Hold my time bomb
Seems he missed the opening ceremony ...
(i'm not talking about how they have done, but they did it and brought it to the live action. even though they even didn't had to use some specific tricks and shots to do so, they could have done by live action as well in some points, but ... i'm an event technician and use to do such production before it was cool, but riot had the money, the motivation and way more to loose than our client 3 years before riot "copied" and made it much cooler than we did, probs)
Not a single background except for the paris picture in the end were real. All animated. And above all. All characters *DRAWN*
Dope right
Detailed explanation on all the characters in this video related to their respective lore.
Ekko (Black/ The Main Rapper/ Thutmose (verse 1) and DUCKWRTH (verse 3))
A genius kid who was able to create a device with the power to control and rewind time. He uses this power to protect his friends, who are orphans, in the rotten and horrific streets of Zaun (A horrific city located underground under the bright and progressive city of Piltover where magic meets technology). In the game, he is played as an assassin that deals magic damage and has the gimmick of stopping, fast-forwarding, and rewinding time.
Qiyana (Latina/ The Rapper of verse 2 (pt 1) and singer of the pre-chorus/ Becky-G)
The last daughter to the rulers of an isolated/hidden city-state named "Ixaocan" (just recently revealed in the lore). Arrogant due to her family's lack of consideration for her. Also the most powerful elemental mage in the history of their city-state. The circular ring she was sitting on is actually her weapon. In the game, she is played like an assassin that deals physical damage and has the gimmick of controling the elements of wind, earth, and water to dispatch foes quickly.
Senna (Black/ Singer of the chorus/ Keke Palmer)
She and her husband (He was named "Lucian") were part of an order of light to dispatch the expansion and corruption of the undead (from the so-called "Shadow Isles"). Both she and her husband had pistols that shot light bullets and cleansed the undead. She was soon killed by a chain warden (His name is "Thresh") from the Shadow Isles and her soul was taken into Thresh's lantern. Lucian took Senna's gun and dual-wielded both of the guns. He was determined to kill Thresh and somehow free Senna's soul from the lantern. After years of imprisonment and after many of the battles between Lucian and Thresh, Lucian was finally able to crack the lantern that Thresh held. Senna was freed from her prison and now joined Lucian in the fight once more. She now possessed both the powers of light and darkness and can become a spectral wraith at will. In-game she plays the role of a ranged support character. She holds a massive cannon which, if you look closely, is the gigantic pillar Senna stands on in the music but is scaled down. Her attacks and spells both heal allies and damage foes.
Akali (Asian/ Rapper from verse 2/ Soyeon)
She was born into a clan of guardians for their country (Ionia). She was raised to fight and became a prodigy amongst her peers. However, when she grew up a part of the guardians betrayed them (Long story but there is a master of shadows named "Zed" who "betrayed" them and created his own shadow clan). Her master, Shen (who believes in true equilibrium with no love nor hate), did not take action, so she decided to leave and fight for herself without a master. It is said in the lore: "Beware the assassin with no master". In-game she is an assassin who deals magical damage. She is considered a ninja, so she is based on stealth and quick, in-and-out kills.
Yasuo (DJ)
Born in the same country that Akali was born in, he was a prodigy among his peers in swordsmanship. He was one of the only masters of the wind which allowed him to manipulate wind with his blade (I.E. create tornados with one strike). However, when his home was invaded by the war-like country of Noxus, he was positioned to guard one of the elders. However, believing that his blade could change the fate of the battle, he left his elder to fight amongst the frontlines. Once the battle was over, Yasuo's elder was found dead. His kinsmen falsely believed he was the murderer, and Yasuo ran. Exiled, Yasuo faced many people during his exile, and soon he faced his brother. In self-defense, he easily defeated his brother in combat. Before his brother died, Yasuo pleaded forgiveness with him and asked why his kin thought he was the murderer. His brother responded with: "the elder was killed by a wind technique, no one else would be able to do it but you". After burying his brother in an unmarked grave and with this new information, he set out to find the true murderer of his elder to clear his name. Now he follows the wind, wherever it make take his blade next. In-game he is a hard-to-play, agile swordsman that deals physical damage with the idea of these three aspects: dashing, striking, parrying. In the right hands, he is absolutely terrifying.
Yuna Love64 This is perfect! Thank you so much for this🤠 now I can understand these characters a bit better!
So, here's the deal. Ekko is really strong right now, Qiyana is stupid, Senna is somehow even more stupid, Akali is also stupid, and Yasuo is jesus.
Huh. I thought Senna was on a big sword the whole time.
@@magicianwizard4294 depends on who plays him. Everyone I've played with were trolls.
@@tonypeppermint5329 it did look like a sword in the video but the designs and all gave it away that it was her canon/gun.
8:13 "theres stuff you cant do in live action"
Me: *Looks at the true damage live performance nervously*
Ein ManU Editing that reaction now🤠
@@ShatteredFocusProductions ooooh :D
Regretting saying thats not doable in live action yet? XD
The 360 shots at the end was an absolutely massive animation flex. A good animator can go crazy with all kinda of insane effects and shots. A great animator can execute a vision in a cohesive way and use those insane effects and shots in a meaningful and impactful way. But god those 360 shots and their execution hits me HARD.
yo, League of Legends's music videos and cinematics all have spectacular animation and cinematography. you really should react to more league stuff, i think you will like almost everything you see... if you haven't already seen
Thanks for the advice! I'll be sure to react to some more league videos. Do you have any recommendations?
@@ShatteredFocusProductions The other music video that really blew up was "Pop Stars" by K/DA, another music group in riot
@@ShatteredFocusProductions I'll just list a shit ton
As another user said, the 2019 world championship opening ceremony for true damage is amazing, in that opening ceremony are two other songs which are also created for league of legends. Also great. They are included below...
Music videos:
Phoenix (world championship 2019)
Rise (world championship 2018)
K/DA
Awaken
PentaKill: Mortal Reminder
Curse of the sad mummy :'(
(There's so much more but there's a few)
Non music videos that are like mini-movies:
Annie: origins
Ryze: call to power (I think that's what it's called, you'll find it)
A New Dawn
Ekko: Seconds (same character as the male rapper I True Damage, but the original version of that character)
This can be overwhelming, but I'm this list can be worth to check out, including alot of stuff I didn't mention. But you don't have to react to every single one. I just suggest a few. Thanks mate
Eric Cho Cool👀I’ll check it out🤠
The Funky Chicken WOW! I’ll start looking through them🤠
you can check the opening ceremony 2019 for lol there is a live performance
mohammad osama babiker Dope🤠 I’ll be sure to check it out🤟
@@ShatteredFocusProductions you said the beat switch part was hard to do in real life ? I can already tell your reaction to the live version will be very intertaining to watch...○.○
@@ShatteredFocusProductions Yes, please do check it :D
Edit: We can't listen to you while you play the video ;)
YES DO IT PLEASE
@@ShatteredFocusProductions and please, react to full opening ceremony, not only Giants part, but parts with another songs
My animator friends and I lost our shit over the 2D animation representation when it came out, we were so happy
Amora Neke Lukisan Right! This video is incredible🤠
Amora Neke Lukisan I need to learn more about animation tbh😅
@@ShatteredFocusProductions just look up videos discussing it, there are plenty :) especially on animations such as The Spider-verse movie, Miyazaki's movies, and more. Just any animation that's known to be amazing, even ones known to be horrible, and you learn something from them. Or look up how-to videos :p
check out their other animated song, it's called K/DA Popstars
Scryptor yep! I’m checking that one out next🤠
I mean...ALL the videos from LoL/Riot. Be mindful, they're all tie-in songs to different character releases or the like, as opposed to actual game music, but all are...well produced and you can tell they know where their marketing is.
@@ShatteredFocusProductions Pentakill: Mortal reminder is the oldest (but also very good) animated song from League of Legends
Heitor Santos gotcha! I’ll be sure to check those out as well🤠
@@ShatteredFocusProductions alright boys we got another one
4:20 “we got farm, fields, and tractors”😂💀
Kayla Cappa 🤠
Ohio in a nutshell
North Carolina represent.
Kami Sama 💪🤠
The Ekko character is a time manipulator, so his teleportation and rewinding is an homage to his in-game abilities.
Similarly, Senna appearing from mist is an homage to her character's roots as well.
For an extra bonus, go frame by frame on the part where Ekko is rewinding back to the chorus. They basically illustrated him into each frame during the rewind.
jaesaces I noticed that after the fact but holy crap was that a cool touch🤠
6:33 the moment when his mind blow at point where he not even want to pause the video
Random VD yep😂
This is what happens when Static Shock finds a group and starts a music career.
LashNSmash haha that would make this a million times better🤠
2:53 the smoke effect also is a trait from the video game. Keke represents the in-game champion Senna, one of her abilities is to literally turn into a mist cloud that can also cover her teammates, concealing everyone from the enemy's sight. And that appearance from the smoke is basically the moment when Senna emerges back from the cloud.
QueenMuser Thats dope🤠 appreciate ya sharing the lore🙏
Also, yes her rising from the smoke is a part of the character. Gotta love Senna.
Moosedraw Dope🤠
9:24 Killer freeze frame! Seeing the Ekko clone pop out into the "real world" is something that I think even T B Skyen missed in his analysis of this MV, and you just landed on it out of nowhere! Lucky!
3:11 That Ring you were talking about there is actually her Weapon.
I know! What a cool touch!
Just to add to some of your comments, the glitch effect is a part of the main rappers champion kit in the game. He's known for stopping and rewinding time lorewise! The ring girl uses the ring as her weapon ingame. The smoke girl had been locked into a soul lantern for a very long time with ghosts and souls, which is also a part of her kit to temporarily transform.
TheRezyn appreciate the knowledge🙏🤠
So you are telling me yasuo`s kit is *tpose*
Lol
Hey y’all my reaction to POPSTARS is up now🤠 ruclips.net/video/5ZQdxjbflc4/видео.html
And thank y’all for 100K!!!!🤠
You'll love the live version! They did crazy things with projections on a screen in front of the performers.
Ryan Larkin Really? That sounds dope👀 I’ll be checking it out soon🤠
Thanks to you I noticed for the 1st time after watching this video like 50 times that wheb Ekko reverses time at the end, he appears in all the scenes in his reverse-color form. Mind Blown.
Gangerworld dope right!
Don't know if anyone explained it yet, but the reason why there are two singers for the same character is that the character has a shadow of him that follows him and is his after image doing what he did several seconds earlier. That flat colored scene is his after image doing the singing and than rewinds time to much earlier in the song.
Mira SC Thats a neat touch🤠
There is an official live show of this actually. And the teleportation is handled so well.
Yeah we got our video analyzier
pAppA 009 [ Edit for your Pleasure ] welcome🤠
7:50 - 7:56
Everyone: *"H A R D"*
So I'm assuming this was your first time with anything League of Legends. I click on your channel and I see in the past 2 years you have gone on the deep dive into league! Excited to watch those videos now!
Dude your reaction was awesome. One of the very few I stuck all of the way through. You've very insightful, but you also just have something about you that makes me wanna keep listening to what you say. You do what you do very well!
dadankestdong Yo I really appreciate that dude! This comment made my night🤠
@@ShatteredFocusProductions I enjoyed listening to you very much, so much that it bummed me when you would speak along with the video and I couldnt hear your voice.
Crown yea sorry😅 I’ll be sure to correct this in future videos🤠
The company that produced this, Riot Games, has a notable history of making very good music, and If you want to see some more things they've made I would recommend checking out the League of Legends youtube channel as that's where all of them are posted (This video was posted on that channel) and the style isn't always the same, they have one song that's basically a mix of a lullaby and a folktale (The Curse of the Sad Mummy), and 3 albums of a metal band they made out of some of the characters (Pentakill), not to mention some of the more recent stuff such as K/DA-Popstars, and this video
Toxicmute I’ll for sure check it out🤠Appreciate the tip!
i will just leave a sub here in case you react to more league of legends music. great reaction and talk about the animation man. its amazing that you took so much time to take a closer look even tho you dont have that much to do with league.
btw when you said that you didnt see music videos being animation this well i just hoped to see your reaction on K/DA POP/STARS or Awaken which are also made for league of legends.
and also btw you said like there where not too many overlaps with the animation and the lyrics but there actually a lot that you couldnt catch because you dont have to connection to the game. what i want to say with that is just that they really put hard work into those videos and it really pays off
Süleyman Gökbulut I really appreciate the sub🤠 I’ve decided to react to K/DA music video next!
Shattered Focus Productions and awaken video please
MrWazup1122 will do!
Some more juicy stuff from them: K/DA POP/STARS, Awaken, Phoenix, Rise, Legends Never Die, ... you should see it all
Hentacle Tentai I’m thinking K/DA will be next!
Mortal reminder too
Girl sitting on the ring use that ring as a weapon in the game, and other girl rising from smoke/mist has that ability in the game
The lead of this group (In-game name is Ekko), he's all about reverse/double-takes/rewind/reset.
He's very much about time, so they're messing with the time signatures whenever he starts going off in the song, and it fits UNBELIEVABLY well with this as a lore/character/music blend. :)
I’m still amazed by the amount of detail that went into this video😳
not sure if you saw it, but after they gliched, and said they "are out of this world" the background behind them stopped being just animated to look like live, but they actually took real shots from Paris, to create that feeling like they actually landed in Paris for Worlds 2019.
Piotr Kuźniarski I noticed it after watching it a few times! I’m still amazed at the crazy amount of detail and love that went into this video🤠
about the ring the charecter in the ring uses a ring like weapon and the ring she is in is actually her weapon in this skinline (the music video was created to promote the true damage skins that came out)
The location ekko sings (first singer) is actually kinda distorted. If you look closely you will see that e.g. the stairs are upside down in the background. The last part is sung by ekkos after image. This is a reference to his abilities Ingame where he has an after image from him 5 secs before where he can travel to (heals him for the damage he took, does dmg, can be used to escape etc.) it’s kinda cool they gave it an own part and singer
Link yo thats dope🤠
Honestly, I've seen music producers react to this and POPSTARS music video, and honestly since you're a smaller RUclipsr and can respond to people's comments (sorry if that sounds rude), reading your responses to people it seems like you are genuinely interested in some of the backstory of League and more of their content. Which is really nice to see. The other people who made reaction videos seem like they just do it for views then leave it at that, granted they're bigger channels but they react and say "Oh yeah it's good," without any interest beyond that, it's just about views. But like I said, it seems like you actually care to learn more about the game/productions and stuff that Riot puts out and I respect that and now I want to sub. :P
Rhialia I really appreciate your comment🙏 I’m glad you enjoyed the video and your right in saying i’m interested🤠I’m a sucker when it comes to good story and expansive lore!
i really like the giants video so much! that i wanna keep on listening and watching it through all the people who react to it :P so give them all love and support!
ArekuSenpai 💯
You’re the first videographer I’ve seen react to this so im super curious what you would say about the opening ceremony performance of this
Oscar Poscar I’ll be recording my reaction once im in better health🤠
ANNIE:Origins is a masterpiece.. It's almost like a short movie.. It focuses on one character, Annie. She has tibbers-a pyrokinetic, shapeshifting teddybear- that was given to her by her now dead mother who was a witch to protect her.. It's the story of her becoming Annie and her family dynamic with her step mother, step sister and her biological father... You should definitly give it a go.
I am very happy that someone will notice the description of the 11:37 effect of the 360 camera. The director ’s lens in front also has color, and the level of music is also described. From the perspective of film and television works.
Sorry for my poor english, i don't know if i understand.
I also engage in film related skills.
You really should react to Awaken, Legends Never Die and As We Fall ^^ good video
Vitória Luiza I’ll be sure to check it out! Thank you
Vitória Luiza Include RISE please! All their videos get better when you get to know more about the game ❤️
@@jabbyg4957 Rise is amazing as well ♡
Also just wanted to mention the glitch effect is so prominent because its what this character is based on the rapper ekko ingame he can rewind time and teleport back so the teleporting glitch effect is very fitting for him
There was so many information on comment, so I just want to say nice reaction video bro. HERE IS LIKE FROM INDONESIAN 🇮🇩 LEAGUE OF LEGENDS FANS.
MUHAMAD VANADIS Appreciate ya🤠 glad you enjoyed the video!
Did you notice that when Ekko (male rapper) did the time rewind on his last verse there was a blue streak? That was him moving through the scenes.
Fiddler07 oh! Thats a cool detail🤠 thanks for pointing that out!
Yeah it is. If you pause it at certain times, you can see him posing
I love watching reaction videos from people talking about aspects that they actually understand. Subscribed for reactions to the rest of the League content, you have received more than enough of their videos as recommendations from other people already xD I'd also recommend checking out the live performance of this, where the actual singers performed at the World Final Opening Ceremony and where they also used Augmented Reality.
Apart from that, there is a miniseries (about 5 min in total) that a guy made that is Warhammer 40k based. It's called Astartes (and so is his channel). I'd love to see a reaction to that from you looking at specifically how the creator set up the scenes. The videos are above incredibly well done as well, it being made by a single person, but having the graphics more that comparable to high budget films while also being incredibly accurate to the expansive lore of the 40k universe (and trust me, its expansive).
Either way, looking forward to more reactions!
Rhov I’m glad you enjoyed the video! I’ll be sure to check Astartes🤠
@@ShatteredFocusProductions Another thing I love about a creator is when the creator responds to comments :D Looking forward to more reviews!
fun fact. before ekko's second verse you can see the giant fan behind yasuo going from left to right..but when yasuo uses his sword to manipulate the air the fan is now going from right to left..which also compliments ekko's ability because i think the fan represents time for ekko so when the fan starts to run from right to left it looks like the time is rewinding...
You may have not noticed it since at the time you had no connection or knowledge to the game, but at the end of the third verse, Ekko doen't only make a "hand transistion", he's actually rewinding the time to go back to the chorus, this is why you can see him glitching in and out of other singers' scenes, he's already explored those timelines. I just find it amazing the amount of details they've put in this animated video, when you know the game, it's just a whole lot of reference to the game, its lore and community memes.
Also if you're wondering why does Ekko has two verses, and two different singers, it's because in the game, he is constantly followed by his "past self" (a sort of clone that follows your movements on the map, with a few seconds delay).
I was wondering about the two singers but that explains it and its another cool detail!
It'll be cool to see True Damage come back with a complete album.
Tony Peppermint That would be dope🤠
As many people already said there's a lot more than meets the eye in terms of lore details and stuff like that
Make sure to check the other stuff they put out
And they played this song live at the 2019 Worlds Championship Final Opening Ceremony with holograms and stuff, shit was crazy
Seb I’ll be checking them all out and make reactions to them🤠 also its crazy how much detail id in this video😳
its has been a year now, and after watching it back, its about the creativity more than there visual
This reaction is probably the best reaction compare to others, It feels great to see you make this. Others reaction they only say "WOW !!" or "OMG". more reaction to other league of legends cinematic. :)
Preeda Chompuchaikird Glad you enjoyed the video! Don’t I’ll be making more lol reaction videos soon🤠
It's nice to see how they transitioned from realism to abstract when talking of time, and the transition came both visually and musically.
Cala Content it really is nice to see this level of detail and work put into a music video🤠
The beautiful thing is that it's both. It's a clever use of Qiyanas weapon and a trapeze performers tool.
Love the video
Appreciate it!
He FELT that transition, his eyes CHANGED
Did you notice the Louis Vuitton Qiyana at the one time she was singing. In her chair. Pretty cool they got a sponsorship with them
Helios I did noice after the fact! Its dope how in touch this video is with hip/hop culture🤠
Just thinking about how many people must've worked on this! Concept Artists, Animators, Sound Editors, Design and Video-Editors, Storyboard Artists and maybe even more! Sure some of them might've done multiple things, but that would've taken up a shit ton of time so the respect is there no matter what o-o
I wanted to recommend also "Awaken." It is a lol-related song and has more realistic elements (such as the fibre of the clothes and so on)
Dan Manoban I’ll put it on the list🤠
God I love to watch appreciative people.
You know theres Gonna be alot of interesting Content when a 3 minute music video has a 16 minute reaction
The smoke effect is part of the characters. Her name is senna and here whole character premise is that she comes from like a shadow realm type thing.
You should react to the live performance of this song, its live but also very animated by using screens around of the singers.
Dennis Editing the video now🤠 should be up in a few days!
I dont think the turbine thing would be doable in live-action
I mean the blades could litterally suck you up and cut you in pieces
quite dangerous imo
Cleocyde i agree in that regard however the argument can be made that an editing team can just composite the turbines moving in post and the crew could just film multiple stills with no talents in the shot.
@@ShatteredFocusProductions yeah true, I was thinking about CGI turbines too, if we could do this irl without danger tho I would love to see that/ even do it myself. would look so cool
Cleocyde yea I’d need to find a client with that kind of budget first😂
There are many movies with moving turbines blade so I guess it's not hard
The opening ceremony for worlds 2019 has a live version with the halonet to integrate the video with the actual singers. Kda has the same animated live combo from 2018
Christopher Holfeld Dope! I’ll be sure to check it out🤠
great reaction ! check out Awaken (ft. Valerie Broussard) | Season 2019 Cinematic - League of Legends
it is mind blowing !
oh and there is a live action of this if you want check it out, they do all that teleportation stuff with augmented reality even for the last part and with the real singers !
Jowzf I’ll be sure to check it all out🤠
some insight on the characters.
Dj is a wind samurai. and he is keeping it turning.(whirlwind)
rapper is a time jumper. always leaving clones/trails of his past selfs. running back and in again. same way he fights.
Diva is a Princess of a ancient kingdom. and acts like a pop princess aka Diva.
Mist girl. her soul was recently released from her cage. and she is literally wide awake now.
Korean girl. is a ninja. very Asian.... small chances but could be interpreted like they are dissing her old group K/DA a Korean Idol girl group.
the thing i like about Riot`s method of cosmetic is, they put a story behind the skins. making them essentially another character.
Shinron Vaynex appreciate the insight🤠 I still can’t get over the fact these music videos have lore😂
The guy with dreads is Ekko. He's called "The boy who shattered time." in the game. He manipulates time and he has DUCKWRTH and Thutmose as his voices because he can also make clones of himself. This is why there's like 15 of him in one scene and why he and everything else is all glitchy
Actually the guy singing is Ekko and those flickering effects on that scene is maybe based on his skills on League of Legends. It is like going back in the scenery or time where he's at on the last minute or two and then flickers to that scenery after taking damage so just to make sure that he won't die.
I really recommend you to watch Me! Me! Me!
It's a kinda NSFW anime MV and really encapsulates that "over the top" thing that's often in anime MVs. The message behind the song and weird MV is actually pretty sad and I'd love to hear what your first reaction and guess would be, what that song and video could be about!
Bwans_Art I’ll check it out🤠
In the last part with ekko, if you slow down the video after the rap you can see him in every frame rewinding because in game one of his abilities is being able to rewind
The section with over the top animation with negative exposure is in line with the character as he is in game able to reverse time
Sean Tucker oh trust me it wasn’t a criticism and it’s great to hear it fits with his character!🤠
I love League of Legends music videos, cinematics and live perfomances. They always bring something unique. You need to check the live perfomance. They used holo-projection.
0Annou0 I’ll be reacting to it as soon as I can🤠 honestly excited!
They actually have done the "dark" part IRL, insane.
Stefano Bonello really? Is it in the live show everyones talking about?
@@ShatteredFocusProductions Yes. Although it doesn't looks exactly the same with the video, nevertheless, the live show was very cool as well.
Dionisius Andrian i figured it wouldn’t but ill still check it out🤠
@@ShatteredFocusProductions the live show can basically be called "Production Value: the Show"
@Shattered Focus Productions You should definitely check out the live version for the LOL Worlds Finals Opening Ceremony 2019, that was sick.
Rohanone1 I’ll check it out today🤠
the riot team has said if they ever stop doing games theyll do music, they love it and it shows
also, with their use of augmented reality their live performances are WIIIILD, deff worth checking out
also
OMG NC NO WAIIII
WHERE

You'll gain a lot of followers if you give reactions like this to other League of legends performances and cinematics. There's a treasure trove of at least twenty main videos like this, and at least sixty or seventy other amazing videos they've produced. I really hope you follow League.
Scott Osborne I’m thinking I just might🤠I’m not trying to be just a reaction channel but since these are music videos I think it falls in my area so I’ll make a series out of this!
Hey so I just want to point out that no one ever talks about how the DJ in the music video casually swings his sword and REVERSES A FAN PRETTY MUCH GOING FULL SPEED ENOUGH TO PROBABLY DESTROY THE MOTOR OF SAID FAN!!!!
John Richter I mean what did you expect? He’s a DJ
The cool thing about the video is that every frame of the video is hand drawn. So the glitch effect hasn't been that easy since its hand drawn. :)
im so not focus on the videos more because the beats are so dope. lit af
Azusa Shinoh right!
I don't really know anything about videography, but just something interesting. During Senna's intro (2:10) , the camera cuts in and out as the smoke is forming, in the last frame Senna disappears from the scene, but enters in again when she starts singing. This is pretty true to her character in game, where she can take on a ghost form. I think it's a good thematic way to bring in a character that is literally a spooky scary ghost.
I don't really know how to express this idea clearly, sorry, I hope that gets the point across. I wanted to share it because Riot will do a lot of these touches--where a technical or artistic choice was made because it suits the character involved--if you pay attention. It makes sense, since it's a very character-heavy game; everyone who is playable has a unique, individual identity.
Other cool facts I guess:
Ekko (rapper with X on face) can travel through time, so a lot of his choreography is meant to be a bit strange to represent this. He pops up in odd angles all over the place, and the scene where the art style change is him turning back time.
Qiyana (pink) has a weapon in game that is a bladed hoop, which you see her spinning around in. More of a game fact, but she got a "Prestige" skin in-game in addition to the skin from this line. It is a Louie Vutton outfit. (5:54) The character herself is royalty in canon, so it makes sense for her to get a second skin, which is more expensive than the original one, in an expensive clothing brand.
Akali (blonde korean rapper): This character is in K/DA, where she is also in a subway. The subway scene calls back to this. (I feel like the lighting itself is also a reference, since the previous video had a neon aesthetic, but the choice to set it in a dark room + have the light source be different keeps it unique.) She was really, _really_ popular for her rapping, so her transition where she takes the camera by hand and focuses on herself suits a character who is so popular. She does a very similar transition into said rap verse in POP/STARS.
Yasuo (DJ katana man): the transition where he cuts with his katana is because, well, he has one. He's a wise swordsman mentor figure in canon. If you watch the live performance of this song, he sends out a tornado, which he can do in-game.
There are plenty more which I skipped or missed (I didn't realize Senna's transition until I watched this, just now, 3 months late to the punch) but I just wanted to comment. Because, these reaction videos are still cool to me, a fan, months later, because people with different perspectives or expertise will point out things I never noticed, even being a fan who is active in the game's community. The more I learn, the more I really appreciate the thought that goes into these high-budget productions put out!
nice reaction =)
Thank you🙏🤠
That glitch effect is actually its power
Also that ring that the girl is sitting on in the begging of the video that you commented on thats her weapon XD ingame she can sortof absorb one of 4 elements from enviorments around the map once her weapon is embued with an element it will have diffrent effects for example if she uses her weapon on a bush she will gain bush element and she can lay down a small area infornt of her where she will be invisible for a few seconds very interesting chaarcter and a nice touch
Check the ceremony, that thing was crazy as hell!
Ahri planning on it🤠
2:20 Do you see the stage she is on? Is her weapon in the game.
3:51 Here's QiQi leagueoflegends.fandom.com/wiki/QiQi_(Teamfight_Tactics) During development it was known as Qiyana's Dog. Qiyana is the one that ''sing'' that part.
3:49 On the question and answer platform, a user of the service questioned the developer about Riot Games' stance regarding the word GG EZ, generally used at the end of a game by the winning team to communicate the following to the opponents: “Good game, not really. You suck as a player. " And Qiyana represents it as a drug.
First watch the video and then think about it.!!!!
Each character have lore... and if i remember it clearly the "glitchy guy" has some weapon or device that make him go back in time, or he have some probl3m like giltching through time.
The reaction at yasuos sword skill switch
They actually plan on making an album with them (and kda)(they are rival)
Nikolas Ioakimidis Thats dope🤠
@@ShatteredFocusProductions I posted on the kda video but have it here as well in case you didnt see it.
if you really want to learn about the universe/story: ruclips.net/video/o7xsUZF_JNQ/видео.html
He will prolly upload for true damage too when we get more info
It could be shot in live action, true. Except the second part you think can't be shot in live action can also be done I think. In fact the live performance of the song actually did this to a great extent using holograms. Try watching it, the live performance for this music video actually had such a remarkable use of Holograms. that it blew my mind.
Raj I will check it out for sure! Also I do think it could be shot but it would be tedious to do so
True damage-Giants (ft Becky g, Keke palmer and SOYEON) MEN, SOYEON IS THE BLONDE GIRL
SER96MC 10-4🤠
"Hard to do it in live action"
You should watch the Worlds opening 🤔

You found a gold vein, League of legends has a huge community that you can easily get to just by doing reactions to all league cinematics.
I'll be waiting for a lot more league content criticsm and reaction from you.
BTW love your recording place.
P. S one more thing.
When music is playing And you are saying something it's impossible to hear you, so you might want to tune sound a little bit. Or just pause more often.
He's going to freak when he sees the irl performance lmao

The ring is her weapon in game actually.
