Every Project L Character REVEALED 

The best thing about Project L is seeing the FGC and League communities interact with each other in the most hostile way possible

Certified hood classic

The whiplash I experienced reading the title of the video and expecting a funny 3 minute video and then realizing it was an hour an seventeen minutes long LMAO

Just combine Elphelt and Happy Chaos and turn Caitlyn into the most toxic character possible

MajinObama is that one dude at the Avengers movie who keeps asking shit like "is that Batman"

Bruh if you're laughing at Udyr now, you should've seen what he looked like before. Him getting the Aris makeover is genuinely an improvement.

"you don't understand league lore, your just saying ridiculous things about the world" tears in my eyes, this is crazy to read after someone said there's a purple world 😭

The contrast between skipping 5 characters in a row for being purple to instantly including the next one cause they’re in arcane had me laughing so hard

Obama just riling up a fanbase with his off the cuff impressions is the kind of content I didn't know I needed. Such a classic hater, it comes so natural to him it's like breathing.

You show Obama a picture of Potemkin beside a picture of Blitztank and he be like "Fam are you serious, these are the same character 😂" lmao

I lost it when you started explaining the Arcane lore 🤣

This was like 30% "damn he's spitting" and 70% "I cannot believe he slept on this character" Loved it

How did nobody think of Kokonoe when talking about Heimerdinger? Give this man gravitrons and other shit, especially with assists, and give him release Koko's Black Hole unblockable. He deserves it.

As a lifelong League player getting into fighting games more often I'm glad to see other people dive into the champions. Just that alone is awesome.

I appreciate that you tried to do Zac voice over without hesitation

The thing I love about fighting games based on different series is being able to look though and see how they could possibly fight like with the stuff they have

If you want to do an extended cut, I'd recommend checking at the list of characters they ported over to the card game. League design gameplay wise puts characters in boxes A LOT since they have clear roles to fill. But the card game fleshes them out a lot more on thematic level. There was an article back then about "Runeterran truths" from the Project L devs, saying how you don't want to translate the gameplay, you instead want to pin down the gameplay fantasy of a character and start from there. Jax, the guy that fights with a lamp post, in the card game is depicted has having encountered and inspired people around the world to fight with whatever goofy ass weapon they have available. So there's a whole cycle of cards you pair in his deck where they randomly acquire equipments with different effects. The list of those weapons include : - An electric powered wrench - A cooking pot filled with spicy soup - An amulet that summons a spectral wolf - A fishing rod (with and without a fish attached to the tip) - A back scratcher - A shepherd's staff - A cast iron pan It's a great example of the design work the project L team also has to take when trying to translate these characters.

I mean, you're not wrong but it definitely puts it into perspective to consider that in competitive, there's no mirror matches. Having multiple characters that occupy the same niche/role is really important. Imagine if you had to draft pick your characters in a 3v3 fighting game and someone could block you from picking your main.

hearing obama say irelia and camille are the same character is killin me lmao its like saying karin and cammy are the same character

I was laughing when you skipped Bard, partly because he strikes me as a character you'd actually like but also because I totally get that sentiment when reading new character kits too.

HE SAID PETSHOP VIBES 💀

It's mad funny seeing Obama react to the character designs, especially because League players love their characters so much. He ain't ready for these chats about to come up on him mad as hell.

Watching this as a league and fighting game player is mad funny. So outta pocket with so many characters but it’s vibes.

I hope that despite a lot of character samey-ness they can make them shine as individuals through their gameplay.

Project L is great because it comes with an inbuilt response to someone offering to play it with "No thanks, you can hold that".

I was laughing hard at Pike. Majinobama says, "alright sell me on this guy" and someone in chat typed, "he's black"😂🤣

we need a blue jeans & white tee region to balance the purple region

such unashamed discrimination towards purple-skinned characters smh my head

I've been playing League of Legends for 10+ years. Listening to an outsider's perspective about the characters and how its "Same person with different flavor" is totally valid and I can see where Majin Obama is coming from. League only gets new players through old heads, and I think if it weren't for that people would never pick it up. Obama, if you're really gonna play League then God speed to you and stay safe brother.

drinking game: take a shot every time Obama says "I get it now"

Shaco could have canned mixups like Hibiki, where he rushes you with a clone but you don't know if the high or the low or neither is real.

"Planes are mechs" is gonna fucking stay with me.

Top tier kontent. Can't wait for the fgc vs. Riot fanboys twitter wars.

I have been clean on league of legends for close to 3-4 years now, I am looking forward to playing Project L of course... but watching you roast some of these characters was as validating as it was hilarious. This why you the best Obama

yordle with a hard r is fuckin wild lmaoooooooooo

It’s come full circle. Obama now sounds like his dad talking about Mario characters.

Majin burning league bridges is crazy

Thank you for validating my feelings that a lot of the roster has the same sort of vibe and feels AI generated.

One thing I think was not mentioned was the reason there is like multiple of "the same character" is the like equivalent of like, "I don't play Ryu, I play Ken." I understand a fighting game has to be more versatile, and unique with its cast, but aside from the fact that one wants to play Rek'Sai over Cho'Gath, it's because one has the Jungler role, the other has a top laner role. One is a tank, one is a bruiser. But I understand the need for roster balance.

Love this video format. Appreciate the work Majin Obama.

Its cool to see someone who isn't deep into league reaffirm what a ton of League artists and critics say. So many of their characters (especially the women) are the same body, one of five faces, and then random shit.

I love how Obama sees 2 champs with a similar color scheme and inmediatly goes "its the same character"

Hunted down the VOD like a freak to see what you said about Sett, glad I did, Day 1 Base Roster BAYBEE

this is my favorite piece of content ive seen in a hot minute, had me cracking up the whole time

Did he really just say that Diana and Camille are the same character?😂 Like, I would understand Sona and Seraphine, but Diana and Camille have literally nothing in common except gender.

I really just watched this whole thing start to finish 💀💀💀 great video once again Mr Obama

This guy will have Vietnam flashback is Soraka entered the Project L

Kayle would be Phoenix. The longer the game takes the more she comes online. She reaches her final form at level 16 (max meter) And she has an ultimate that prevents death so it’s kind of similar in that regard. Also, Solar Eclipse Kayle is the best looking Kayle which would also fit. Lol

This was fun to watch in stream. I may disagree with you on a lot of it, but it was fun for me. Nothing serious just fun.

I really hope they add Lee Sin and make his specialty placing wards to dash around to on screen kind of like Answer from Xrd. His Q would be a very unique fireball and I imagine the follow up would be plus on block.

God when chat just exploded saying that Shaco players are the biggest fucking bigots man I just fucking knew I couldn't be the one noticing that pattern LMAO

some of these LOL characters deff AI generated lmaooo

Video was a banger. Liked having Zerp with the offscreen commentary. Was like a talk show but more casual. Lost it at "Straight outta middle schoolers trapper keeper."

Lets go! Twisted Fate love. Felt like the only person who wanted him in.

As a mundo main I want to be able to blockstring into cleaver toss

i get the "lol another purple assassin" argument but its still a bit goofy coming from someone that likes anime fighters like bro you must've heard the exact critique about your favorite games and rolled your eyes

I think the reason purple is so common is because it's used to show evil or danger, the game has been using that color for anything related to the Void for so long and anything that comes from there is basically a threath to anything outside of it

Imagine Obama's reaction to all the sword characters in Smash

This was fucking hilarious.

Damn, Riot having people by the balls defending this shit. Pull up at the toplane. The fight between my sword viking vs your axe viking gonna be sick.

"unbench the kench" is so damn funny

Rain might be favorite fg character of all time but there is such a thing as too much purple

Watched the whole thing it was a lot of fun going through it with my brother who played League Definitely some characters that feel so free to get into the game like Tahm or Temo A lot of Characters who do similar things so it'll be really interesting seeing who they end up going with I can't wait to see it

Imma need blitzcrank with that Spencer full-screen grab

I loved this video. It's a good reminder not to take stuff seriously and laugh. When someone shit talks something you like the instinct is to get defensive, but it's more fun to just join in. Good video man!

i personally dont think most of the champions are similar in design like with diana, camille, and irelia, but i understand that there will be a difference of perspective due to how much of the IP we are exposed. i love hearing outsider perspectives so thanks for another great vid.

The consequences of Riot Games' success on character design and video game art styles have been catastrophic. These devs deadass make characters via injection mold. "ChatGPT output" ascribes too much intentionality and forethought to the primordial keyword soup that their 15th guy with sword or 45th waifu slithered out of. The way this aesthetic absolutely took over the games industry should be studied at the CDC.

Dont let the league players see this video lmfao

Wonder if Riot could go for clone type characters (à la Smash) down the line to fill the roster. Do another 3D model, keep most of the animations, change up a couple of normals/specials and passive/status effect, boom new character to please the fans.

A fellow Tahm Kench enjoyer. You love to see it

I gotta see the solo queue League content now. This same vibe but playing the damn game bout to go foolish

*sees a lamb with a bow and a wolf* “This is just a ninja sword character”

I've learned from this video that league only consists of Beards, the color Purple and Yordles

Old man yells at the color purple.

I hope the canon bros watch this

salute you putting in the real work here, bro. Playing my 2 games at Evo as close as I'm getting to any of this Runeterra stuff til the game's out

Just gimmie the Pantheon Baker skin, and I'm in

Opacity gear? Lookin like Zordon’s floatin head

lol funny vid obama. league characters kind of have a different vibe because like u said there are alot of overarching archetypes like void characters being purple monsters or ionia characters all being ninjas, and the real importance of a characters identity is their playstyle and specific abilities. looking forward to project l and as always more content from you brother

Swear youtube be changing my notification settings for you

The Hawthorne Heights callout bro I’m dead 😂

THIS VIDEO IS A FUCKING BANGER 10/10 OBAMA CANNOT MISS

"That looks like sonicfox" lmao im already dead

Surprised Sylas was skipped over. He could copy the enemy's assist and/or super. Interesting counter pick potential.

yo, that thumbnail Majin, lmao!

this video passed by so fast didn't even realized it was a hour

League players hate league but they can't handle non-league players roasting it

"is LoL just DBZ?" Obama with real takes like usual.

in 13 years the league community never got hit as hard as that day Obama decided to look at the roster... LMFAO!

IDK why all these league players in the chat are trying to act like people in the league community don't also complain about these character similarities running rampant in the roster.

Tryndamere is literally Berserker from DNF Duel. He's just a guy one handing a really big sword and he gets a bit angry

Dr. Mundo needs to be in this game, but only if he has a booty cheeks grab

Two things I learned from this video are that obama says yordles with the hard r and purple is out of the question

This was a work of art. Holy shit lol

Thanks to you I'm going to start calling Anivia Pet Shop

They can have a wholeass side game just for the yordles or purple characters

Not him just ignoring fiddlesticks

“Ive been giving dbz players shit. Is league the same way.” I hope riot employees watch this because they won’t stop doing what they have been doing.

56:00 sure dude let me fly unfly we chilling

Thanks for the vid. Helping majorly with a shitty day, appreciate what u do
