The LCS made me realize just how good "As We Fall" is.

If you don't know, As We Fall is the song used in Varus' music video.

If you go and listen to just the song......it is actually really good. The only problem is that I think it didn't get the attention it deserves because of the backlash that the Varus lore change got.

Here is a video of just the lyrics (sorry that it still has the sounds from the actual video. Can't find one that is just the music). I posted this besides the actual music video because I want you to just listen to the song, because it really is a really good song. And, it's made completely by Riot!

The song is great, the scene of them getting captured by these lost souls and encountering the Darkin gave me goosebumps.

I can't hold on much longer, we're drifting down to the other side...

It was the only league video to hit trending ever since youtube introduced the trending feature so im not sure what you meant when you said it didnt get the attention it deserved

Don't forget that the amount of likes on the video outweigh the number of dislikes by a pretty large amount. These boards are an echo chamber unfortunately. If you see 200+ likes on a post complaining about something then somehow that equates to every LoL player hating the changes.

You're messing things up. I hate the lore changes. Still liked the video. Pretty sure the majority thinks like that (I hope).

But why would you like a video that visually represents the changes in the lore you hate so much?

Because I liked the music, the lyrics and the video in itself. I don't feel like punishing the team that made it when the real problem was the lore.
I'm not saying it's a good reason or the good way to upvote/downvote, but it's my reasoning.

The song and animation was still incredible even if not everyone liked the lore changes :)

How does it relate to LCS though?

Before the matches start, the LCS has a countdown showing the matches for the day. During this countdown, they have a bunch of random music playing, which is either music made by Riot, or some other sources.

They happened to add As We Fall into that playlist.
