Imagine Dragons: Warriors, has yet to be topped
Why is this ? Riot is a much bigger company than it was in 2014.

Nicki Taylor did a wonderful job with worlds collide.
Zedd did a great job with ignite.
The difference is that these are original songs. They weee written by the artists specifically for league. It's hard to top an amazingly well known song by a known group who performed it live at the ceremony.
People's expectations are too high. Ignite and worlds collide are both great pieces of music. People are just too hung up on warriors.

... you do realize that Warriors was made specifically for League of Legends 2014 Worlds, right? you are completely wrong.

They did adequate but still not on the level of Imagine Dragons' Warriors. Even Lightbringer and Deathfire Grasp were superior productions than Ignite and Worlds Collide.
My question is; Since Riot has grown into such a massive company, why is this? they could easily have invested more now than they did back then.

Ummm, yeah, that proves my point. The bar they set with Warriors is so damn high....
Spicy Rice1 votesBecause you can't beat perfection. That song and the music video were pretty good representations of a league players fantasy.
Asteck1 votesI personally think it is due to the bar being set so high, and then not getting artists that can make similar types on music to that.
I have a feeling that riot prefers to pick artists who actually play the game over artists in general who can make the song but won't be as good as they have no feeling for it.

I tend to agree.

@Riot; For real, what was the thought process behind the removal of Solo Queue?
