Shattered Focus Productions the blood is due to an in game ability, his ability allows him to increase his blood level kinda? Like bloodlust, increase attack speed and movement speed.
FYI: The guy with the mask is indeed a sadistic maniac, Jhin. He often thinks of his 'work' (murdering people) as art. He's also obsessed with the number 4. In the game he has to reload his weapon after every 4th shot (but his 4th bullet is by far the most dangerous, always indicated by his weapon's red colour.) At 12:06 he draws his weapon At 12:25 he shoots for the first time At 12:40 he fires the second and third bullet But he never fires a fourth time.. instead he bows at 12:58, hiding his weapon behind his back. But its red glow indicates that he hasn't finished his artwork yet. One of the most beloved characters from the game by far!
making notes on Jhin's character "very sadistic, i'm guessing. Very dramatic." Me: "actually that's very accur..." * next couple of frames * "If this wasn't any clue of that" LMAO
At 20:33 I'm truly amazed how you were able to determine the character's personality since indeed he is a very sadistic person, in the game lore he basically sees death as the most beautiful work of art, that's why the beautiful shots when the soldiers are exploding and when he is shooting towards the girl since it's seen from his perspective, his name is Jhin, the woman in that scene is called Camille she is half robot.
@@ShatteredFocusProductions Yeah something worth mentioning is that Jhin in-game has 4 shots in his pistol, the 4th one being by far the most powerful, and when he has 1 left his gun turns red. If you look closely, when he is bowing at Camille (The cyborg police girl), you can see that the pistol he's holding in his back has turned red, so the next shot is the powerful one. It really makes me want to know what happens after.
16:06 it is - his name is yasuo and ingame everyone EITHER plays him or hates him, because his players are known for always trying to fight 5 people at once alone and dying XD
In the scene with Jhin and Camille, you see her eyes swap from blue, to orange, and then back to blue. That is her (passive) Adaptive Defense which gives her a shield against either magic (blue), or physical (orange) damage. That little swap was her trying to figure out if she should have her defenses up against magic or physical attacks. It's another little neat nod they tuck in.
19:40 in the game Draven has a skill called Blood Rush which makes him excited and attack faster so i think this is the only reason why the blood was there lol.
I didn't notice the blood on his face and that it was actually there in the scenes before the headbutt, but was in sequence supposed to be after the headbutt
That shot of Jhin bowing before Camille lives absolutely rent free in my head. The composition, the meaning, the palette, I get goosebumps EVERY TIME I watch it. Which is a lot.
There's two more League of Legends videos I'd recommend for a fun watch. 1) Burning Bright, for a complete change of pace and style. It's essentially an anime opening used to advertise a new set of character cosmetics, but it's basically sailor moon lol. This video then basically got two more sequels: A New Horizon, and Light and Shadow. 2) Get Jinxed, it's different and it was the first music video that they've ever done I think, and on its release it created a bunch of hype for the music and character introduction.
@@ShatteredFocusProductions Something to add: Burning Bright has a Japanese version called "Endless Starlight". Also, there are antoher fun video called Odisey-Welcome Aboard wich is like a recuiting video for a speceship crew kinda Guardians of the Galaxy.

(I've got to say, your eye for detail is amazing. I've seen this several times, and you've pointed out things I never noticed, such as one of the traps being visible at the beginning, and while I saw the blood on the gladiator guy, I didn't see the lack of it afterwards, and put together that they moved the scene. Very cool of you. Also, with that 'make every frame a painting' comment? The frame of the killer bowing while the explosions go off in the background and the blade-legged woman coming for his head is now my desktop background. So that frame was certainly beautiful enough for me to keep.)
Shattered Focus Productions My best guess would be to go to his account page and ask if he’d be interested in a collab? Tell him who you are and what you do on your account maybe? I’m honestly not too sure myself ^.^;;
I seriously waited for your reaction on the 23:55 cuz that's the most dramatic scene in the video for me, like when i first watched it i was like "whoaaa!!!" Then my heartbeat rises, and i shivers i had so many mixed emotions... like It's so beautiful aesthetic, altho It's in the middle of a fight and murder, i mean the beauty shouldn't exist in there cuz the theme dark and they're killing each other but it does represent glamorous scene..... and yes, Actually when i've seen it i took a screenshot and make it my facebook cover photo. . Great video i'd definitely gonna subs.
I know I’m late to the party, but damn man your dissection of this video is top notch. You CLEARLY know your stuff, and to see you enjoy its details in the same way I have is such a joy. All the best to you my dude!
I absolutely love the gladiator fight with Riven, especially when draven starts fighting; every hit has so much impact that you can almost feel it. This is by far my favorite league video
Frame at 23:51 in your video is my favorite frame🔥 I'm actually hoping if I could found someone talk about it in their reaction video. Luckily I found your video very soon. lol Thanks for your work man. Great video👍🏿
I know someone gave some insights on Jhin (the piano guy) but I really love this champion and his segments in this video so here's some lore/backstory Jhin is a killer, obsessed with art. For him, it not the kill that matters, but how the kill is done. For him, this is a show. At the start, you can see he already killed everyone in the theatre, and Camille and her troops coming to investigate. As he set all the traps, which one of the soldiers stepped into, he is ready for her. In the game, Jhin can make 4 shots, before he needs to reload his gun. And the fourth shot is the most powerful. In the video, we can see him shooting 3 times, while Camille rushing to him, triggering all of his traps. And finally, she is going straight into him. She can't change the direction. He got her where he wants her. And he bows to his "audience", with the gun loaded with the fourth shot behind his back, as the show is about to end, as she is about to die.
I have watched a bunch of your videos, and I dig them all, but this breakdown was impressive, even for you. You noticed everything I had hoped you would, the moment after I thought it. Especially when Karma buffed Yasuo for the run into using his tornado. Only thing I wish I had heard you remark on was Riven's smirk after headbutting Draven. Keep it up, my dude.
Finally someone notices the continuity error of the headbutt, it´s like they put it there so it would syncronize with the music and forgot about the blood
The ninja girl in green is Akali, she was in the k/da and true damage videos as well. Your analysis is incredible as you were able to pick up so much information from the animation. Big props
It's fun seeing you remember characters from past works. Also, I really love that you pointed out things that people that have seen this video hundreds of times never noticed until coming across this video. Also, yeah. There are shots that are perfect for posters. Jhin the Virtuoso bowing at his work. Yasuo the Unforgiven coming in. It'll be fun to see your take on different scenes from the League videos.
@@ShatteredFocusProductions Yasuo was accused of killing Elder Souma, his master for teaching him how to fight with wind. When Noxus came to his home country of Ionia, laying out a war, Yasuo left his post thinking he could of actually done something. Instead, he found a field of Noxus and Ionian bodies killed by something that a sword couldn't do. He went back home and the remaining students drew swords on him saying he left his post after killing Souma with his wind techniques. He ran away when he thought about the killer being free and had to kill the people who tracked him, which unfortunately included his own brother. I recommend reading the 3-part stories Confessions of a Broken Blade or listening to them being read as they included a character that's also in the Awaken video, Riven the Exile. She also has a explanation for the field Yasuo saw in her own backstory.
@@ShatteredFocusProductions I'll also like to bring up that Riot has gotten helped with Melcher Media in making Realms of Runeterra, a book with more stories to the world of League. Also, Necrit has the readings for Confessions of a Broken Blade on his RUclips channel.
The amount of detail is insane in this video, in that gladiator arena on the other side from the guy with axes sat, u can barely see a man with white hair in the background (that is Swain, the general og noxus. Noxus is the region that spesific fight is taking place) next to Swain u can barely see another man with a lot of armour, that is the Brother to the dude with the axes. And u can see him raising his arm to cheer for his littlebrother.. its insane details
6:10 I'm the only one who heard "This is a really emotion Draven" on the first time of hearing it?? I'm saying this, because the name of that character is actually Draven.
Im new to this chanel because you finally speak my language. Better than me yes jajajaj, I love league man, but i can't discuss this type of detail with friends. There is passion and love for this characters, from the community and its makers. Cant wait to see the rest of your reviews.
It's impressive how you, by being a professional videographer, have such a different and specific view of things and how you approach the content. I saw this music video a thousand times and never even noticed that on the opening scene there was already a so-called bear trap. congrats dude!
Explanation to the 20:20 ,when Riven(female character with the sword) blocked both spinning axes from Draven, he dashed under the sword and got his nose cut, cause you can see some of the blood going out after he catches them, which happens after the dash. He didn't have the blood because you can see his coat touching his nose and see some blood on the coat which is a nice detail. When she did headbutt him, she hit his forehead and not his actual nose.
This «Every frame is a screensaver» is verbatim my thoughts. After like thirtieth replay, yeah%) It is possibly the best description for the entire cinematic, videowise. And soundwise I like how all the footage feels like a perfect flow for the music. So it is not the most popular Riot cinematic, but it's always in my heart.
Hey y’all🤠 I got my PC fixed! I’m glad I got to check this video out as I’ve heard this song a lot in AMVs so its good to find the source! On another note I made a Discord so if you want the link is below👇
Oh wow, i can't believe you caught Draven's nose bleeding continuity. That's amazing! he does have the nosebleed at the last shot so you were definitely right about them changing the shot placement after that!
Shattered Focus Productions you don’t have to thank us. Instead we are grateful you are putting this amazing effort and quality for us. Even people who millions watch them don’t put their effort and quality like you. 👌🏻👌🏻👏👏👊🏻
am I the only one that notices Riven's calf flexing when she's being raised up? I thought that was a VERY interesting detail that really gives it more life
The sadistic guy is actually super interesting. All the colors you see are from his perspective. He believes in beauty within bloodshed. All the purple smoke you see are actually just normal explosions to everyone else in the theater while the flower petals coming up from the traps the troops are standing on is their blood and guts being blown up. There's your private ryan moment of oh god, were really doing it. (This is easy to tell based on Jhin (the characters) reveal video with images of people he shot having blossoms growing out of them (their guts) and really lets you know, oh dear, much more to this than I thought.)
The "gremlin" is named Kennen. He is part of a race called Yordles. He is a lightning magic user but I'm sure that was obvious. He is a hit and run style of fighter.
Fun video! Thanks for pointing out so many cool little details, like the stubble, sweat, and Draven's bloody nose -- things a viewer might not notice consciously, yet they serve the scene subconsciously. Thanks to your analysis, I also noticed that Riven (woman in chains) tightens her calf muscles in the last second, when her platform rises, suggesting readiness to spring into action -- but there's a cut before she moves, creating tension from the missing payoff. And later you can see a ripple flow from the muscles of her shoulder and down her tricep, a split second before she mic-drops her chains. This, in combination with the music, sets up a subconscious visually guided saccade in the viewer's eye and brain, followed by a payoff (she drops the chains). So many beautiful little touches! Check out the Pentakill: Mortal Reminder music video (also from League of Legends). That's a fun one.
Minute 12:25 if you look at draven when he catched his axe look at the top of the arena closely you would see someone rasing his arms to salute draven and he is darius his brother
@@ShatteredFocusProductions Long short of it is they're brothers and orphans they rose two power through the noxian military. Darius through his raw might and leadership draven through his skill and showmanship. Darius rose to lead the nation Draven is more PR and Executions and he grows tired of fighting easy battles
You mentioned sound design, and I think it's likely the reason their sound design is so good is because they make a very popular video game, with a lot of very important sound cues. They're already used to paying attention to the details of what sounds you should hear and how important they are, plus all the characters already have SFX associated with their attacks and abilities so they can use those if they want to cue the senses of players even more than normal viewers; but still they're distinct, well-designed sounds because they need to be in a game where there can be a dozen things happening at once on screen.
The girl in red and black is Irelia. The small gremlin that you are talking about is Kennen. With that skill it's supposed to make him fast while electrecuting those enemies while he passes. The big spark is his ultimate skill that has an Area of Effect that damages around and inside it. The girl in green light skill is Karma. When the giant (Sion) smashes his axe to Irelia, Karma covers her with her 3rd skill that intends to be a shield and fasten everyone that surrounds it. The one with the tornado is Yasuo. The one in green ninja suit that jumps on the giants face is Akali. Akali ang Kennen are ninjas. The girl that has the ability like in the Attack on Titan is Camille. Legs are made of blade made possible by the Hextech stone that activates any mechanisms in Piltover. And in the scene you can see Camille attacking Jhin, because he's been tagged as a criminal. So she's catching him. On the arena with the gladiators, ithe guy's Draven and girl's Riven. Riven uses a broken sword. Draven uses a blade but it's not a sword. He's suppose to throw it coz he's a Marksman.
Love the point about the blood on his face and agree with it. I think they somewhat justify it though by the fact that the damage that Sion (big guy) takes from kennen (gremlin/gizmo) is carried over to Draven (bleeding guy), similar to how they were carrying motion from scene to scene.
S B Yea it was blended very well! Honestly it really doesn’t take away from the overall quality of the video ether. The damage carrying over too is a solid work around tho
i don't know if its connected, but in japanese anime, a character may have a nosebleed when something excites them ( usually sexually like seeing a suddenly nude woman) and Draven ( the axes guy) is like the star of the show type of character. he is the executioner for his country and he combines his job with entertainment. he was bored and now has a challenging adversary. it could also just be that they messed up the scene lol.
I love watching you pick apart the League videos! Super interesting. You should also look into some of the WoW cinematic! They're pretty cool and I'd looove to see you're breakdown of techniques etc.
What the fuck, I've played the game for over 9 years and even I didn't realise that the green thing is most probably karma's shield/speed buff onto him.
A very drunk and semi wise man once told me "Nobody has the same set of eyes". You can't expect to notice it all and that goes even further in detailed pieces of work like this!
RE: 18:07, Not just the blood, don't forget his LOVELY application of eyeliner! The cut/blood on his face might come from a cut received at 14:09 on your video here.
kennan enters: "THIS GREMLIN RIGHT HERE...WHAT!?" i feel you bro 😂 but seriously, i love love LOVE these reactions. it's so refreshing to see a perspective on these videos that i've never seen or even thought of before. and i'm so glad you appreciate them and are able to put why they feel so great to watch into words. cause i know leagues visuals are stunning, and so many of them elicit emotion, but to hear you say why the visuals are help making me feel this way or that way is so interesting. keep up the good work bro. 😊 p.s. jhin is the one on the piano. AMAZING that you caught that the dude is very sadistic and very dramatic without even knowing who he is. i had no idea that their visuals could convey that to someone who didn't play LoL. that's literally his thing is being dramatic and sadistic. a few quotes from him: "I will bring them an opera of death." "When they find you, they will cry." "Art requires a certain cruelty." you the man 😄
A nice design choice (you couldnt have possibly noticed) was the split second at 13:08 and needs a bit of explaining. The saint there “Irelia” is a traditional dancer (so, close guess). A string of tragic events eventually lead her to being burdened with the role “leader of the resistance” against the invading force of Noxus. And as diligent as she may be, theres a lot of doubt involved in that story. So here we have her being nearly defeated by big guy, until reinforcements arrive. Notice just how many new characters show up. May have been jarring for you, but lore fans went wild. All of them live on the same continent but have so many different backgrounds. None of them got along very well. But in the time of need they ended up helping her, coming together and uniting against the common enemy. Then comes 13:08 (13:05 forward) - the moment when she stood among those people and forms the crest of their continent with her blades. The Ionian symbol. Its really crazy and I hope I didn’t bore you, but that moment touched me. Also, the fact that this is the only thing I could add to your reaction says something. Good job, nice reaction. Imo longer video (then more ads) would be fine with me
Jalcome yo thats dope🤠 I love lore so don’t ever feel like your boring me😂 Glad you enjoying the videos! I actually haven’t monetized any content thus far as I’m not sure if thats ethical due to the fact I didn’t create the original content.
What i like so much about this Video is, the guy with the Mask at the Piano is a Psychopath calling himself an Artist. And killing is his art. And they really gave me the feels of him being insane. Being an Artist.
About the only thing you didn't put together is a small detail at 3:09. The line sang is "And the devil is knocking right at your door," right as the raid on the opera house starts with a door being kicked in, along the with the sudden panicky feeling in the music. A little bit of the audio-visual pairing you mentioned in the Giants video.
Fun fact all those bright colors in the theater from the traps is actually just all the blood and you see things from how jhin(the one who played the piano) sees things he's very big into the beauty of death
You should look at curse of the sad mummy league of legends its based on my favorite character. Also "This gremlin" fucking love that All the small ladds you'll ever see are yordles basically gnomes

it’s just amazing how he forgot to analyze in the last part. the video gets so many emotions that even he couldn’t resist, and that is great ;)
Great job, can't wait to see the other League videos. You provide a really great perspective!
gatorlily24 glad you enjoyed the video🤠
It's fun seeing you remember characters from past works. Also, I really love that you pointed out things that people that have seen this video hundreds of times never noticed until coming across this video. Also, yeah. There are shots that are perfect for posters. Jhin the Virtuoso bowing at his work. Yasuo the Unforgiven coming in.
It'll be fun to see your take on different scenes from the League videos.
Glad your enjoying the videos! Side note: Why is he called the unforgiven?
@@ShatteredFocusProductions Yasuo was accused of killing Elder Souma, his master for teaching him how to fight with wind. When Noxus came to his home country of Ionia, laying out a war, Yasuo left his post thinking he could of actually done something. Instead, he found a field of Noxus and Ionian bodies killed by something that a sword couldn't do. He went back home and the remaining students drew swords on him saying he left his post after killing Souma with his wind techniques. He ran away when he thought about the killer being free and had to kill the people who tracked him, which unfortunately included his own brother.
I recommend reading the 3-part stories Confessions of a Broken Blade or listening to them being read as they included a character that's also in the Awaken video, Riven the Exile. She also has a explanation for the field Yasuo saw in her own backstory.
Tony Peppermint Thats dope! Kinda like snake eyes in a way. I’ll have to check out those stories! Thank you
@@ShatteredFocusProductions I'll also like to bring up that Riot has gotten helped with Melcher Media in making Realms of Runeterra, a book with more stories to the world of League.
Also, Necrit has the readings for Confessions of a Broken Blade on his RUclips channel.
Tony Peppermint Dope! I’ll check it out🤠
"so he gets a nosebleed, but it was before the headbutt, where'd he get that from?"
*avoid eye contact*
nice notice, detail and definition in only one vid,
anazing bruh , Great amaziing Reaction
6:13 this is really motion driven...
draven: u mean motion draven??
😂
The amount of detail is insane in this video, in that gladiator arena on the other side from the guy with axes sat, u can barely see a man with white hair in the background (that is Swain, the general og noxus. Noxus is the region that spesific fight is taking place) next to Swain u can barely see another man with a lot of armour, that is the Brother to the dude with the axes. And u can see him raising his arm to cheer for his littlebrother.. its insane details
I didnt even notice the missing frames in the cinematic...but thanks to you,I found them....definitely subscribing for more🔥🔥
OK I love how your attention to detail tells you where it was edited and what orders were changed. I look forward to seeing more. =)
23:54 You're very much correct because this IS my screensaver lmao.
bro watching your analysis made me realise many things about the lore..like how high kenen ult looks or karùa giving speed ..great video
Dude you know your shit. Your reaction was actually good and you are giving something to it!! 👌
TB Skyen did a similar breakdown on this with the advantage of knowing the lore behind League of Legends, you might find it interesting.
6:10
I'm the only one who heard "This is a really emotion Draven" on the first time of hearing it??
I'm saying this, because the name of that character is actually Draven.
lol
I heard "emotion Riven"
Im new to this chanel because you finally speak my language. Better than me yes jajajaj, I love league man, but i can't discuss this type of detail with friends. There is passion and love for this characters, from the community and its makers. Cant wait to see the rest of your reviews.
It's impressive how you, by being a professional videographer, have such a different and specific view of things and how you approach the content. I saw this music video a thousand times and never even noticed that on the opening scene there was already a so-called bear trap. congrats dude!
Sharp on the details! Thanks for your reaction!
Glad you enjoyed!
Explanation to the 20:20 ,when Riven(female character with the sword) blocked both spinning axes from Draven, he dashed under the sword and got his nose cut, cause you can see some of the blood going out after he catches them, which happens after the dash. He didn't have the blood because you can see his coat touching his nose and see some blood on the coat which is a nice detail. When she did headbutt him, she hit his forehead and not his actual nose.
This «Every frame is a screensaver» is verbatim my thoughts. After like thirtieth replay, yeah%) It is possibly the best description for the entire cinematic, videowise. And soundwise I like how all the footage feels like a perfect flow for the music. So it is not the most popular Riot cinematic, but it's always in my heart.
“I like this shot because it shows his-“
Me: Girth?
Hey y’all🤠 I got my PC fixed! I’m glad I got to check this video out as I’ve heard this song a lot in AMVs so its good to find the source! On another note I made a Discord so if you want the link is below👇
Make sure to say hey when you join🤠
FYI: The discord link is expired now. You'd want to get a new one and make it a permanent link.

Great personality, great attention to details- can’t wait to see what you put out next
Oh wow, i can't believe you caught Draven's nose bleeding continuity. That's amazing! he does have the nosebleed at the last shot so you were definitely right about them changing the shot placement after that!
i learned a lot from this! also, this is the best reaction i have seen of this video
literally i was going to write "omg a turtle neck... he's wearing a costume as the rock" and then he said it LOL
Carlos Luna Pizarro Guerra 😂😂😂
But archer invented the tactical turtleneck tho
My mans attention to detail is next level.
EGToasty 🙏🙏🙏
the best camera, studio, video and sound quality in a youtuber below 10M subscribers and that is saying something.
doruk cider 🙏🙏🙏
Shattered Focus Productions you don’t have to thank us. Instead we are grateful you are putting this amazing effort and quality for us. Even people who millions watch them don’t put their effort and quality like you. 👌🏻👌🏻👏👏👊🏻
The blood in Draven is a reference from an ability from the character in the game where he just goes crazy. He
am I the only one that notices Riven's calf flexing when she's being raised up? I thought that was a VERY interesting detail that really gives it more life
"Got distracted" me too hahahaha the scenes are just captivating
**pauses the video**
"woah i really like that plant right there, great way to show the scene; also its really nice"
The sadistic guy is actually super interesting. All the colors you see are from his perspective. He believes in beauty within bloodshed. All the purple smoke you see are actually just normal explosions to everyone else in the theater while the flower petals coming up from the traps the troops are standing on is their blood and guts being blown up. There's your private ryan moment of oh god, were really doing it. (This is easy to tell based on Jhin (the characters) reveal video with images of people he shot having blossoms growing out of them (their guts) and really lets you know, oh dear, much more to this than I thought.)
The "gremlin" is named Kennen.
He is part of a race called Yordles.
He is a lightning magic user but I'm sure that was obvious. He is a hit and run style of fighter.
Fun video! Thanks for pointing out so many cool little details, like the stubble, sweat, and Draven's bloody nose -- things a viewer might not notice consciously, yet they serve the scene subconsciously. Thanks to your analysis, I also noticed that Riven (woman in chains) tightens her calf muscles in the last second, when her platform rises, suggesting readiness to spring into action -- but there's a cut before she moves, creating tension from the missing payoff. And later you can see a ripple flow from the muscles of her shoulder and down her tricep, a split second before she mic-drops her chains. This, in combination with the music, sets up a subconscious visually guided saccade in the viewer's eye and brain, followed by a payoff (she drops the chains). So many beautiful little touches!
Check out the Pentakill: Mortal Reminder music video (also from League of Legends). That's a fun one.
rocking the turtleneck, i like it man :D
I fucking love how precisely your guess about Jhin (The mask guy) is, hes a fucking sadistic, he sees the art on a very disturbed way
U have a very sharp eye ma man, i enjoyed every single Word of your commentary
matteo bonacini Thank you! Glad you enjoyed🤠
Minute 12:25 if you look at draven when he catched his axe look at the top of the arena closely you would see someone rasing his arms to salute draven and he is darius his brother
Mahmoud Ahmed beheri dope! Whats his story?
@@ShatteredFocusProductions Long short of it is they're brothers and orphans they rose two power through the noxian military. Darius through his raw might and leadership draven through his skill and showmanship. Darius rose to lead the nation Draven is more PR and Executions and he grows tired of fighting easy battles
You mentioned sound design, and I think it's likely the reason their sound design is so good is because they make a very popular video game, with a lot of very important sound cues. They're already used to paying attention to the details of what sounds you should hear and how important they are, plus all the characters already have SFX associated with their attacks and abilities so they can use those if they want to cue the senses of players even more than normal viewers; but still they're distinct, well-designed sounds because they need to be in a game where there can be a dozen things happening at once on screen.
Very entertaining watch, keep up the good work!
Sam Holland thank you🤠
Great video, I'll love to see more of your reactions
Shidou Kun I’ll be sure to make more🤠
16:55, kennen's entry reminds me of master shifu's entry on the final battle in kung fu panda 2
The girl in red and black is Irelia.
The small gremlin that you are talking about is Kennen. With that skill it's supposed to make him fast while electrecuting those enemies while he passes. The big spark is his ultimate skill that has an Area of Effect that damages around and inside it.
The girl in green light skill is Karma.
When the giant (Sion) smashes his axe to Irelia, Karma covers her with her 3rd skill that intends to be a shield and fasten everyone that surrounds it.
The one with the tornado is Yasuo.
The one in green ninja suit that jumps on the giants face is Akali.
Akali ang Kennen are ninjas.
The girl that has the ability like in the Attack on Titan is Camille. Legs are made of blade made possible by the Hextech stone that activates any mechanisms in Piltover. And in the scene you can see Camille attacking Jhin, because he's been tagged as a criminal. So she's catching him.
On the arena with the gladiators, ithe guy's Draven and girl's Riven.
Riven uses a broken sword. Draven uses a blade but it's not a sword. He's suppose to throw it coz he's a Marksman.
Love the point about the blood on his face and agree with it. I think they somewhat justify it though by the fact that the damage that Sion (big guy) takes from kennen (gremlin/gizmo) is carried over to Draven (bleeding guy), similar to how they were carrying motion from scene to scene.
S B Yea it was blended very well! Honestly it really doesn’t take away from the overall quality of the video ether. The damage carrying over too is a solid work around tho
i don't know if its connected, but in japanese anime, a character may have a nosebleed when something excites them ( usually sexually like seeing a suddenly nude woman) and Draven ( the axes guy) is like the star of the show type of character. he is the executioner for his country and he combines his job with entertainment. he was bored and now has a challenging adversary. it could also just be that they messed up the scene lol.
TheGingusa lol now I’m associating Draven with Roshi
Perfect reaction i always want to see a good reaction like this paying attention on every details how amazing this is..
I love watching you pick apart the League videos! Super interesting. You should also look into some of the WoW cinematic! They're pretty cool and I'd looove to see you're breakdown of techniques etc.
Calling Draven a wannabe shao-kahn, I love it lmao. Great video!
What the fuck, I've played the game for over 9 years and even I didn't realise that the green thing is most probably karma's shield/speed buff onto him.
A very drunk and semi wise man once told me "Nobody has the same set of eyes". You can't expect to notice it all and that goes even further in detailed pieces of work like this!
RE: 18:07, Not just the blood, don't forget his LOVELY application of eyeliner! The cut/blood on his face might come from a cut received at 14:09 on your video here.
kennan enters: "THIS GREMLIN RIGHT HERE...WHAT!?" i feel you bro 😂
but seriously, i love love LOVE these reactions. it's so refreshing to see a perspective on these videos that i've never seen or even thought of before. and i'm so glad you appreciate them and are able to put why they feel so great to watch into words. cause i know leagues visuals are stunning, and so many of them elicit emotion, but to hear you say why the visuals are help making me feel this way or that way is so interesting. keep up the good work bro. 😊
p.s. jhin is the one on the piano. AMAZING that you caught that the dude is very sadistic and very dramatic without even knowing who he is. i had no idea that their visuals could convey that to someone who didn't play LoL. that's literally his thing is being dramatic and sadistic. a few quotes from him: "I will bring them an opera of death." "When they find you, they will cry." "Art requires a certain cruelty."
you the man 😄
A nice design choice (you couldnt have possibly noticed) was the split second at 13:08 and needs a bit of explaining. The saint there “Irelia” is a traditional dancer (so, close guess). A string of tragic events eventually lead her to being burdened with the role “leader of the resistance” against the invading force of Noxus. And as diligent as she may be, theres a lot of doubt involved in that story. So here we have her being nearly defeated by big guy, until reinforcements arrive. Notice just how many new characters show up. May have been jarring for you, but lore fans went wild. All of them live on the same continent but have so many different backgrounds. None of them got along very well. But in the time of need they ended up helping her, coming together and uniting against the common enemy. Then comes 13:08 (13:05 forward) - the moment when she stood among those people and forms the crest of their continent with her blades. The Ionian symbol. Its really crazy and I hope I didn’t bore you, but that moment touched me.
Also, the fact that this is the only thing I could add to your reaction says something. Good job, nice reaction. Imo longer video (then more ads) would be fine with me
Jalcome yo thats dope🤠 I love lore so don’t ever feel like your boring me😂 Glad you enjoying the videos! I actually haven’t monetized any content thus far as I’m not sure if thats ethical due to the fact I didn’t create the original content.
my fav shot is the one you're looking at, at 13:24 i even got it as my desktop background
fun fact: if you're trying to find a specific frame in a video, you can use the , and . keys to move forwards and backwards one frame at a time
What i like so much about this Video is, the guy with the Mask at the Piano is a Psychopath calling himself an Artist. And killing is his art. And they really gave me the feels of him being insane. Being an Artist.
The green ninja also appeared in the Giants and KDA Popstars videos.
Kennen: exist
Shattered Focus: *GIZMO?!*
Marca2273 😂
It's the Noxian army invading Ionia! Just like D-day, knowing who is who here, makes a lot of difference.
About the only thing you didn't put together is a small detail at 3:09. The line sang is "And the devil is knocking right at your door," right as the raid on the opera house starts with a door being kicked in, along the with the sudden panicky feeling in the music. A little bit of the audio-visual pairing you mentioned in the Giants video.
Fun fact all those bright colors in the theater from the traps is actually just all the blood and you see things from how jhin(the one who played the piano) sees things he's very big into the beauty of death
"This gremlin right here" ok but true.
Waited, now i can watch.
Adveis 🤠
You should look at curse of the sad mummy league of legends its based on my favorite character. Also "This gremlin" fucking love that All the small ladds you'll ever see are yordles basically gnomes
I thought he looked like a guinea pig..check out the last lip of the video hahaha
My dude watched a 3 min video în half hour , Pausing and going back 40 times
And i’ll do it again😂
Draven's spinning blades are up there with Thanos's Endgame swords regarding how they work...
LMFAO love the raection to kennen, anyone who does play league is prolly like wtf, but thats the yordle homie
