@@mossysnail6857nice one😂
The puppy puns dog her every step.
i unliked the comment to keep it at 666
I hope we got more monster champion to see and NAAFIRI is the best start this year!
milio is from this year tho
@@itchyballsl I'm talking to MONSTER champion lol
@@diego.camacho22we’ll be lucky to see one next year unfortunately. Mister champs tend to have a low play rate and riot blames that on design rather than them having niche kits. That only stopped with Bel’veth, asol rework, and now Naafiri so hopefully we see a change.
Noooo we do not need any generic boooooooooring monster champions. We already have enough
@@ToasteBlade monster champions do not have niche kits kid. Delusional kid
It's been 13 years, and Phreak is still doing these. Been a while since i've been invested in the League community, but Arena brought me back. Fantastic spotlight, I love the updated format that includes counter play, especially for abilities that look "super easy and overpowered" like her w.
counterplay sure man, heal on Q, shield on R, resets, W only counterplay is heavy CC, Q dmg is infinite, surely SHE HAS FUKCING COUNTERPLAY
@@axb_zero8457 you sound upset. Her w is blockable, so a support or tank can get in the way. Her ult is a steroid, so if you cc her or get away while its up she cant get damage out of it. There's lots of counterplay
@@axb_zero8457 there is no abscence of heavy CC in league right now. Also she is not op most people just don't know how to position correctly which gives her a huge advantage. She is a beginner assassin champ which is why she is so easy, but she also comes with the weakness of all assassins. She will be great in helping more low ELO players learn the importance of positioning.
@@TraxisOnTheLines no there isnt, unless u pick certain champs she can just run u down, theres almost noone that can fight her with all her shield heals and dmg and u cant run away either bcs crazy W range and mainly move spd from ult, which lasts longer than ur CC
unless u pick like lissandra u will get run over when ur out of tower range
Yeah, he retired for shoutcasting, but I hope he still does these lol
Gotta love how Riot is presenting counterplay while also showcasing pros and cons of her kit. Very nice
showcased with Braum no less!
It's like some of the developers are playing ranked themselves.🎉
Is this sarcasm? This champion has no counterplay. Point and click screen distance gap close with burst dmg, what was someone thinking?
@@bartech101No reliable escape utility
@@Marshblocker not many champions do
I really like this design insight explaining what role the Champion is trying to achieve, really helpful for new players; I hope you guys keep this for the future Spotlights.
Honestly I'm glad to see a simpler champion intended for newer players. Shows they're giving a nod to attracting players to the game.
Games dead
Dude the problem for new players isnt complicated kits its the immense game/macro knowledge you need to understand to play and the items.
@@tropicalgreentroll
@@ivarte but a simpler play style means they can more easily learn those things. It's still not an easy game to get into, but lowering the load is quite useful.
@@Darchias Remember the last "New player champion" ? Yeah Yuumi sure worked out _great_ for new players and only for those. No impact on other high elo or pro play at all
Personally i really like to see more streamlined champs now and then. It's nice to see a champ that doesn't need multiple paragraphs to explain.
And having a simpler champ for new players, or new to a role is very nice to see
Naafiri looks pretty one dimensional, but as someone who doesn't jungle much, she looks easy to pilot for when I need to fill the role.
She's a mid laner though,not a jungler
@@TheGoldwarrior2Interesting. Now that I look back, there are clips of her in mid and clips of her jungling. I had assumed she's a jungler. But I'm always down for champions that can be flexed in multiple roles.
@@ade1174 the clips of her being in the jungle part of the map is when she is roaming, as her kit really favours this type of playstyle
she can definitely fill the jungle role from the looks of it
If you jungle her, she's super susceptible to invades as she needs her abilities to farm and she has no escapes
1:30 Riot inspired by lethality Yorick

Such a good champion spotlight. Expert level info and teasey video!!
That anouncer. I- I need that ANOUNCER IN THE VOID
You are still here for years and happy to hear you voice again
i like that she also has a clear counter. yes if shes fed it will be hard, but if you have aoe dmg you can kill her packmates, which nerves her severely
Like yorick? Oh wait AoE damage tickles his minions...
this champ honestly looks really fun to play! excited to try her out
This new Champion spotlight edit is so cool, it fits Naafiri
Got that DAWG in her
1:17 LOVED THAT MEAN GIRL REFERENCE
Alright, they're definitely nerfing her packmates being able to block skillshots.
Late game she summons so many she's completely protected, it's dumb.
If you didn’t come from tiktok raise your hand 🤚🏽
And what if I am

@@Spyphoticjust don't bruh
Why would we? That’s so random. Stop farming likes
Like the counterplay bits added into the explanations.
While i haven't played league in years, i still see this stuff from time to time. Honestly this feels like a breath of fresh air, the abilities aren't too complicated, which is a good step away from their more recent line ups.
Same here, I think it will almost be 2 years soon.
I haven’t played League in a while either and I recently stopped by to see what changed. I am having to watch champion spotlights because there are new champions that I am not seeing played in games. I have to wonder why.
It's refreshing to see new UI in champion spotlight. I hope this will be maintained in the future!
The Dog is Unchained
Is this a yugioh reference
mista oliva
Tatsurion
Most beautiful spotlight yet!!
There's been a lot of complex champs over the years, so it's nice to see an actual noob friendly one.
Great video!
one of the only champions that have recently come out that actually interested me and makes me wanna main them, pyke and sett included
sett is like 5 year old now aware
@@manuellanthaler2001 ok mb, didn’t realise that but yk what i mean
@@drmalfunction1349 yea idc the other day I thought Kled was a fairly new champion 💀💀💀💀💀💀
Glad to see Riot still willing to experiment with monsters and making more in the subclasses that have been shown to be popular (without ofc giving them kits that are way too niche)
Yeah unlike moonton
Her vision bonus on her R is very dangerous.
The amount of dog puns just shows how long they've been wanting to put a dog into the game XD
After playing around with her awhile. Her numbers are a tad to high aswell as she is just to visually noisy as is in there's to much effects it's hard to know what's actually happening. Tho this is just my opinion.
She's edgy
She's vicious
She can be pet
I haven't played actual League in quite a while but this is almost enough to bring me back. Badass champion is badass.
As someone who had tried assasin Yorick alot this really feels exactly that.
Its been a long time since a new champion has made me want to play league again. :o
Phreaks puns never get old!
finallllyyyy we can know how this dog can be put on a leash 😆😆
I wonder how much time they spent sitting at the round table coming up with dog puns.
200 years of game desing to make a talon q that is longer than the time the developers parents were away in their chilldhood
I love the new champion spotlight ❤
900 range undodgable point and click gapcloser that follows ur dashes, on an assassin, and it becomes 1250 with her other dash, COOL, LOTS OF COUNTER PLAY TO THIS ONE!
Excited to see what they do with skarner and shyvana
I’m so glad phreak still does these
EVERYBODY needs to buy this champ. Then Riot might consider doing more monster champs.
No one should buy this champion. We do not need generic monster champions
You want more furry champs is what you meant to say.
Riot should not consider monster champions because they are sooooooo generic boooooooooring
@@deadlyincompetentd whats the problem of that? Better than all the anime girls and e-boys they gives us since 2020
@@rehmanrohanyone2147it's the opposite, the humanoid champions are getting boring as heck, I want more ancient gods and mystical, alien creatures.
Out of all the OP Champs I can see Naafri being among the worst. Haha. She looks super fun to play though. Those gap closers are nuts. Akali and Ahri look like childsplay.
I played her some hours ago and It was so much fun
I will say, its refreshing to hear Phreak's voice again. I miss him on the shoutcasting desk.
Im so hyped to play her!
riot hasnt made a more broken champ since yuumi release omg
I mean by default you should expect all assassins to be broken in some capacity. But making K’Sante was one of rito biggest push in making something broken by far..
New monster/creature champ that who has an easy to understand kit.
Wish they would do that more often.
Phreak sounds like he’s having so much fun 😎
so naafiri gets a leashing ability for dogs she can respawn in 30 seconds, but maiden has to sprint it down under t3 if you hit one e
Next time make new champions available in ranked at least two weeks later, thanks
That's actually a great idea. Ranked games won't get ruined by ppl not knowing how to play new champs properly
@@magicalnoodles I've lost like ten games to people using Naafiri right after she was released.
Thats kinda neat. Nice to see new content after all this time. The puns were cringe as always love to see it.
Over terrain dash, lock on, huge range, and a slow in 1 ability is crazy.
Plus heal, CS, and skill shot protection? How is this balanced?
Alright great, now give us a darkin support and we're set
What is Riot doing to this game
They are lost, they just feel the need to add champs
I like picturing all the Darkins together and then there’s Naafiri itching herself with her hind leg.
Im so glad we have a new monster champion. they are my favorite.
Idk, something about all the benefits she gets from her abilities (skill shot blocks, bonus shields, vision, mini nocturne ult) makes her seem just a bit too overloaded/annoying to deal with. Talon feels like a better “intro to assassin” character
These Videos makes our days better
?
@@FabroVanQueerbot i think
her passiv randomly blocks skillshots? that´s busted
1:17 - OKAY DUDE
Really good movie though.
What does he mean please?
nice puns as always ;)
Naafiri is so cool. I hope they add her to Wild Rift some day soon
Same
Awesome video with lots of good puns. Now we have an official dog champion we need a few more (like a rabbit and tiger) to round out the Chinese Zodiac signs!
When I was in highschool, I remember I made a werewolf champion that summons five werewolves as his ult...
such a refreshing champ!!
Coll champ design and all but i hate how assassin players need less and less effort to kill someone from full.
Naafiri looks like a bizarre canine fanged wyvern design in a Monster Hunter game. I love it
My dog, the amount of puns in this video
Riot: "we are making a monster champion so its ok we made a manta hot"
also riot: "here is the new monster champion, a dog that fell into a box of knives"
looks like it will make me come back to the game after 4 years
Finally,i got Naafiri vs me in ranked and i cant find this video so i dont know the spells, but it's okay she have 0/12/1 in the end ! thx rito
He probably keep diving into your team.
They even threw in a cat joke with the "Check out the Lynx below"
We got yorick the necromancer and nafiri the pack dog. I love summoner classes in video games maybe even the most but what i'd love to see next is 2 champions in one. Maybe not necesserily 2 healthbars or seperate control but it would be cool to have a duo champ like those 2 kids with the slingshots from the breathe cinematic.
Kindred?
we kinda already have 2 champions in one with transformation champs like nidalee, jayce, etc
Milio then naafiri. And now we just have to wait and see what that artist mage and vampire jungler are gonna be like
Didn't the artist mage get pushed back to 2024 via the last champion roadmap? So, the vampiric jungler is the last one for 2023.
@@patrickcarter2829 Skarner is pushed, not so sure about the mage thought
Hello Phreak can you nerf AP Kai'sa please?
Finally a monster champion
looks fun~
Needs more dashes
Why does every champion now get a billion range jumps?
I'm looking at you Yone
I mean... She's an assassin. She kinda needs to be able to jump around to be an assassin.
@@BoostedBonobo101yeah but why a 700 range point and click dash? And her q has 900 range. She outranges even some mages
@@zefix3133 Her q is easy to dodge and her point and click dash can literally not only be interrupted by cc but also standing in the way of hew w causes her to stop kinda like Cait ult. Only thing that doesn't stop are her dogs. Again... She's an assassin she needs ways to gap close and she needs burst damage that focuses on single targets at a time. Her abilities literally force her to commit and push herself in the heat of battle. If you're alone you die if you're not shes easy to punish...
@@BoostedBonobo101 You dont understand that she outranges most mages while spacing was their only counterplay. She has a 940 range point and click dash! Like it's so ridiculous to think about how high that range is especially for an assassin. Now combine it with her 350 e dash and she has a almost 1300 gapcloser XD. Hitting her q point blank is pretty easy. There is a reason she has 54% winrate as a new champion
I was starting to get worried that Naafiri's spotlight would only be a short. Thank God...
This video gives the long-awaited answer to the question,
“What the dog doin?”
pls make Joraal a darkin supp in the future
OP as always. Good release riot. Would expect nothing else.
What you mean op?? She's an assassin yet can't one shot an adc... The only thing that is op with her is the amount of dogs she can have that would potentially tank for her but that's it
@@raniellelopez5653of course shes op. She has a 54% winrate in mid as a brant new champion. We've never had something like this ever in leagues history. Completely out of control
the lion king reference in the beginning was slick
30 years of game design
the good ending
300*
Okay you do realize you just made an assasin champion who 1. Is extremely hard to hit bcs dogs, 2. Most lilely has a very healthy jungle clear 3. Has a point and click dash that can only be blocked by teammates, a trait usually reserved for ultimate abilities, because a basic ability shouldn't call for constant pressure to stand in front of squishies and 4. Who's only weak trait is her lack of mobility after engaging, a trait easily solved by the confusion her dogs cause, a duskblade and the movement speed she gets. Also 5. You can't even use vision control to your benefit against her, and you can't even just kill her dogs like you would with yorick because we gotta give her something to heal them with, who cares about HP management.
You know I understand it can be hard playtesting and stuff but was there really noone in the office who mentioned how frustrating this could be to non-competitve players who don't want to constantly get rushed by a pack of unpunishable dog minions. It's especially funny because her kit is surprisingly dumb, aside of hitting the two Qs. It's like she was designed so a single casual player could ruin the game for 9 others, because she has everything they could possibly need + Duskblade's new infuriating passive.
I don't often think a LoL champ is badly designed, I wouldn't even say it here, but I feel like there were oversights when making her and she just ends up being a chore to play against.
equating pantheon and zed as champions that want to get ahead early when they are pretty much the complete opposite (pantheon gigastomping early, zed being one of the weakest earlygame champs in the game) really shows how little understanding the balance team has of the game. then again, pantheon is also a scaling champ for some reason so i guess you could sort of state they work similarly in the lategame.
The best thing is that Naafiri is garbage in the very early game, but with some items she just steamrolls 100-0 everyone in 1 second with her point and click dash
"She's a good dog."
-Kraglin 2023
So.. it's basicly rengar without the bush mechanic and no stealth on the ult.
there's... nothing in her kit like Rengar's
So,... Not Rengar.
That actually looks crazy but pretty balanced compared to what's been released lol.
Her numbers are completely out of balance right now. 54% winrate in mid for a new champion is ridiculous. Her simple kit also makes it really hard to balance it without making her useless
1:14 Phreak, please never change
A good addition
A Champion Spoltight should show how to COUNTER a new champion, also. ALL these Spotlights are always focused on the champion abilities, but they never teach us how to defend against her. A Champion Spotlight is currently 100% "This is what she does", it should be 70% "This is what she does" and 30% "Here are real world examples of her fighting, to show us when to engage her, and how. It's *VERY* Frustrating playing against new champions because, while we have 10 years of experience killing Lux, MF and Jax, we have 0 experience with this new champion -- and this lack of experience is even WORSE with a new POINT AND CLICK champion like Naafiri comes out, and she ruins the game for like 1 to 2 months. *PLEASE* add real-world fights to the Champion Spotlights, already! UGhhhhhhhhhhhh!!
It did. It said to body block the W for your squishies and that she is extremely vulnerable after blowing her mobility. It also showed how the hounds work. If you can't gather how to counter her from that you have not had 10 years of experience at all.
Sorry to say joe, but i agree with Novictus. Phreak clearly shows the weaknesses as seen in the video.
It’s illegal to play this champ without knowing the meaning of “WAT DA DOG DOIN’”
Banger
I come back to league and they add two new champs who are best at killing adc's. It's like riot just hates the role at this point
If adjusted right (a bit OP during PBE), her kit is not overloaded. It can't prolong trades and is only there to kill an enemy asap, kind of how a dog or a wolf pack would act. Perfect for an assassin concept.
It's a beginner champ with a high mastery ceiling. They did great with this one.
"It's a dog eat dog world."
doesn't show a clip of Naafiri defeating Nasus
Me: 😒
