He recalled to his ult shadow at the last second he is fine

KoriosApr 13, 20176 votes

Nice catch.

DarkRitualApr 13, 20178 votes

Or he just channeled Edge of Night. No biggie.

AmazoXApr 13, 201710 votes

You cannot channel Edge of Night while in combat.

Auz the RipperApr 14, 20174 votes

Edge of Night's channel is interrupted if you take damage. it doesn't matter if you're in combat just as long as you don't take any damage for the 1.5 seconds. realistically hard but possible

Even with my dislike for the champions it was nice to see a fancy 3D piece again. Only real gripe is that Rakan looked a bit like someone in their 40s trying to look like they're a teenager, it looks really weird.

KoriosApr 13, 201719 votes

Yes Rakan looked kinda weird, we don't know how Vastaya age exactly sooo...

Jet SettApr 13, 20173 votes

I like some of the shots, but I do agree there were some points where he looked a bit strange.

I... is it bad to say that i am pretty underwhelmed? I don't mean to say that is a bad video, it's just... i don't know, compared to Warwick teaser the graphic looked less polished... Are the videos made by different teams?

KoriosApr 13, 201725 votes

Yes I agree, the graphics looked a little sloppy, but the video was like 2 minutes longer than the Warwick teaser.

UomoAfideApr 13, 20172 votes

Hmm, might be the lenght of the video as well, you are right.

Fondling GemsApr 13, 201725 votes

It is also vastly more difficult to get certain human emotions right. The WW teaser we didn't see one of the characters at all, and the other guy was just a constant scared face. WW is more animalistic so we don't don't get any weird feelings from seeing a CGI version of his expressions.

In here though we have multiple close ups of people's faces and everything from happy, to excited, to scared, to intense, to deep caring. That all is much much harder to capture in a human face without people getting a weird feeling from it. It is why you so often see CGI human characters done in a rounder more cartoonish art style, because we expect them to look slightly different so the tiny mistakes don't bother us at all.

Humans are just too good at recognizing human expression and noticing when something is trying to fake human expression.

KoriosApr 13, 20171 votes

Do you think the graphics were better or worse in compare of a New Dawn?

UomoAfideApr 13, 20173 votes

I think the graphic was pretty similar to New Dawn, hence why i think it must have been the same guys behind it. Don't think it was better or worse compared to the other video, personally i didn't like too much the metallic parts on Zed's mask but that is just my own little dislike.

HOLY SHIT THIS IS FUCKING AWESOME I DEMAND MORE

RIOT GIVE US A FUCKING SERIES ALREADY

I'M THROWING MONEY AT MY SCREEN

WHY ISN'T IT WORKING?!

KoriosApr 13, 20176 votes

Lol Mr Malicious Metal with the Nice comments. Please we need one for the Mordekaiser rework.....just imagine

SzGamer227Apr 13, 20175 votes

I don't think any human being could withstand the unbridled righteous ecstasy that MM would experience if Riot made this kind of in-depth visual teaser for Mordekaiser. He could die. IT COULD KILL HIM

All I want is a cinematic with Sion in it. Preferably ulting in on someone.

IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK?!

DarkRitualApr 13, 20174 votes

Two teams fight. Suddenly train sounds. Sion rushes by. He keeps going, and is gone, never to be relevant in that cinematic again.

Choo choo.

Shen So... Zed. Heard you lost to a bird girl. Zed SHUT UP! Shen Are you... crying? Zed N-no. It's just... dust that got under my mask. Shen Well, now we know who's the better fighter of the two. Teleports off Zed CURSE YOU, BIRD-PEOPLE!!!

Zed is dead

Don't worry, he'll respawn in the fountain in 30 seconds.

Anyone else have a hard time believing just the two of them can out-ninja Zed and his shadow clan? Still pretty cool video though.

Gonna get hate, but you're right, it was actually outright stupid. His clan consists of highly trained ninjas who can use shadow magic who were defeated by 2 horny teenagers, or better to say a 35 year old man with his 16 year old girlfriend.

Ebonmaw DragonApr 13, 20179 votes

With all those servants that use the same uniform, i actually feel that Zedd is the new villain of a 90s Show.

paisyApr 13, 20176 votes

It makes me sad that Zed always gets his ass beat, but also makes me happy that multiple people have to take him down

GhaApr 13, 20176 votes

I wonder how this relates to the lore. Seems strange that zed, and his army, could take down the previous ninja clan, but gets beaten by two teens with magic feathers.

DarkRitualApr 13, 20177 votes

He undersstimated the potential of the Vastayans.

You can't win every battle in a war. Sometimes you have to concede a fight when you realise it's already lost. Move on, and use the knowledge of your previous battles to be better prepared for the next.

Overlord ForteApr 13, 20175 votes

Hmm. If Zed is actively interested and supporting the theft of magic to increase his own power, I'm really concerned why Syndra has any association to him whatsoever. That nature is almost entirely antithetical to who and what she is. If they're direct enemies (or at best, non-aggression pact in lieu of larger enemies), maybe there's an uneasy truce, but he'd definitely be at the head of her chopping block after the traditional leaders.

Penta PenguinApr 13, 20175 votes

So what is going on exactly that is destroying all the "wild magic"? Is it actually just Zed and the shadow ninjas? is it Ionian civilization and development like deforestation or something? Is it the Watchers? Is it Lissandra? Is it Jinx? Is it Gangplank's revenge? Is it the Black Mist? Is it Lucian's quest to the Shadow Isles? Is it Xerath? Is it Azir's return to Shurima? Is it Sivir's link to Azir? Is it another plot-line that will never be resolved?

TheI3igDaddyApr 14, 20173 votes

TUNE IN NEXT YEAR, WHEN WE GIVE ANOTHER 30 SECOND CLIP THAT MAY OR MAY NOT ANSWER ONE OF THESE QUESTIONS!

Chromatic EagleApr 13, 20175 votes

How many fortresses does Zed have? Where does he get the money for this? Why haven't any Ionian officials sent an army after him?

DarrensApr 13, 20175 votes

Lol in real game zed 1shots xayah gg rakan no peel

Make a longer video, based in Ionia and have Zed Syndra VS Ahri Akali Irelia Jhin Karma Kennen LeeSin MasterYi Shen Soraka MonkeyKing Yasuo

Jhin would be his own team.

If Zed is truly dead (hurr hurr it rhymes)

then I'm happy, Zed was a mistake champ in the first place.

Malicious MetalApr 13, 201726 votes

Zed is the fairest assassin there is.

SharjoApr 13, 201720 votes

Always has been really. Much more so than his shadowy counterpart.

Yeah I'm looking at you Akali. Fuck you.

Malicious MetalApr 13, 20178 votes

Like, people give him flak for doing these crazy Shen anigans with Shadows and all. But for it to look fancy AND be effective you got to be good at Zed.

Meanwhile Akali hovers her mouse on you and presses all her buttons as fast as possible.

And I'm not biased! Mordekaiser trashes both of them equally hard :^)

I never said Akali was more fair, also a late percentage of Zed's counters are tanks, Kayle being the only non-tank who actually counters him.
