Damn! Just Damn! I mean......I have barely any words for this. I loved the entire thing, from the teamwork of Vi/Caitlyn and Ez/Kaisa, to the battle with the new Freljord Sylas and his barbarians (way to continue the story) to Lux showing off her powers right in front of everyone and them supporting her. And most importantly my favorite part of this whole thing. GALIO!!!!! Galio is BACK baby! And thanks to Sylas too and his magic for bringing him back to life. Galio is one of my favorite champions. I love the white and gold, the smooth stone, and his funny yet heroic and caring personality. He is just a perfect representation of what Demacia should be. So way to go Riot. You knocked it out of the ball park with the best cinematic of all.

Lux summoned Galio.

Lux has enough magic to wake Galio up on her own. Don't give that jackass credit where credit is not due.

It was not Sylas who animated Galio, it was Lux ulting the sky, having either already charged him or doing it for that purpose :P

She had a plan, a very good plan, and the resulting scenes were not just good they were amazing 🤩

Then Cait and Vi......holy their finisher was amazing [slayer-pantheon-rainbows]

Yeah, I love how Poppy is nowhere to be seen in Demacia even though she's a strong powerful warrior for the faction.

Cause Riot HATES yordles and you can't convince me of the opposite. [slayer-jinx-unamused]

It was great, agreed, but there is one detail I was sad that it was missing.

In the short story "Child of Zaun", there was that old childhood friend of VI called Roe. In that story, she died in Urgot's trial. I hoped that it will turn out that Roe actually didn't die, that Vi just thought she died and that Roe will return, augmented with chemtech like her idol Urgot, to lead a group of Zaunites to free him again.

In this cinematic, it was just a random bunch of Zaunites. I think including Roe would have made this scene even better.

Ya, this one was great.

I think it had the unfortunate timing of being released when Pokémon Direct dropped a massive bomb about Sword and Shield. I would have been hyped for this yesterday, but Pokémon has me over the moon stoked, and this wasn't as exciting.

That said, I liked it, though Urgot's proportions were hella off. He's supposed to be a human who's merged himself with a mech. His arm shouldn't be the entire width of Vi's body.

What a great way to start the 2020 year! Hyping us with a awesome vid and Vi punches

I liked it, my only issue with it was how and when did Sylas learn how to fight? I mean as well as Garen? Garen spent year training to get when he was. Sylas was locked (chained) in a cell and has fumbled his way to where he is now.

This one was great. But personally, I just loved the Camille one. Where she walked in! That was so cool. And in this one, Kai'sa was my favorite! [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]
