    Gotta love lore inconsistencies.

  • @reno9821
    @reno9821 5 месяцев назад +32

    I think design-wise the main issue to me is actually looking too close to the void. The void is not actually magically corrupting him, that's all the doing of his many artifacts, especially the nether blade. The only kind of "corruption" void is doing to him is just a mental psychological trauma making him lose his sanity. Where Kai'sa has this 'fighting fire with fire' theme and adapts to the void's enviroment to fight against it, Kassadin is the opposite. He has scrounged random artifacts across all of Runeterra that can help fight the void, he should look like an invader that does not fit that environment at all, like an insult to the Watchers and Malzahar.
    His design could be better, but I like the idea of it looking a bit goofy considering it's random pieces of gear from all over Runeterra. He's like the type of RPG player who wears ugly random gear just based on what has the best stats.

      I almost agreed until the last part. Kassadin's doomed tragic narrative is what makes him good. He is still an insanely badass doom slayer type, only this time he's actually got a proper narrative which the DOOM games never needed. He's a doom slayer mixed with narrative. Jax is a much better character to fight the void and still have his shit together and just overall be a more pleasant person. Kassadin is not fully mad and corrupted (Unless Riot forgets and fucks up his lore next time they write him), he is barely keeping his mind together and still determined to be a nigthmare for the void.

    I freakin love his story man, and i'm sad riot has not done anything with him other than a brief mention in bel veth's story 2 years ago.

    @reno9821 5 месяцев назад +2

    He's much more of a Doom Slayer with a tinge of Punisher in my eyes. Vader he's only really in visuals and being a dad. I think this is easily the most underrated champion lore in the entire roster. His plot is relatively simple but written so well. I think he surpasses Pantheon in pure testosterone-inducing badassery, it's only that Pantheon has his music theme. If he got a good DOOM-inspired music theme people would love him more. The nether blade is easily the coolest weapon in the entire lore, especially if you go digging deep enough to find rioter's statements about how fucked up it is. He is such a perfect doomed hero character and I hope more people realise eventually how good his lore *already* is. His color story is really damn good and again very underrated.
