Imagine Dragons, JID, Denzel Curry, Bea Miller, PVRIS LEAGUE OF LEGENDS 2021 OPEN FIRST REACTION!!! 

You wouldn't lose anything by reacting to League music!!!

More League of Legends reactions please, would love to see your breakdowns and overall reactions to the wonderful scene that is LoL/Riot music. Esports music production is no joke, as someone who works directly in the esports field I love nothing more than seeing the songs and performances that we get gifted every year. Can't wait to see more of this content Ernest, really solid stuff

Imagine dragons has some dope tracks. People only really recognize them for their mainstream pop stuff. They've also worked with a lot of guys in hip hop - kendrick, lil wayne, now JID

This was advertising the show Arcane and it’s soundtrack has more songs you would love, and one with Pusha T!

Imagine Dragons can go from Hard Rock Loud to Soft and Romantic to Emotional and then to Swag and Funky, They Can do anything.

Craziest part about this is that by LoL opening movie standards, this was limited by COVID. Would 100% recommend going back and watching 2019 in Paris for a real insight into what a fully blown opening ceremony looks like! Great to see you embracing esports too, I've worked in the industry as a pro player, coach and now manager for 17 years. Always great to see people being so open and accommodating. Love the channel!

Now i wanna see him react to the 2019 one and see what he thinks of that because in terms of scope, that one is the biggest. All i'm gonna say is, they didn't use cgi in 2019, they did something more badass.

I dont normally comment, but a few things i gotta say. Number one League of Legends and COD aren't on the same level when it comes to who is the bigger esport. League blows it out of the water. The music video is based of a series Riot Games made called Arcane. Also the Girl you said looks like the girl from twilight's baby, used to date the girl from twilight. Awesome reaction. Love watching.

Finally, it's time. Can't wait for another league reaction. Let's go

My 10 yr old son has memorized this whole song. It's been hard keeping him from a lot of JID's catalog because of the cursing. JID is just 🔥

My son has been obsessed with LoL for years now to the point where i didn't want to hear him talk about it anymore but then i watched Arcane with him and now i get it.

Man you NEED to watch Arcane! You can thank me later, its the best thing i ever wached, just a masterpiece. But care, it hurts and you will fall in love to Riots univers without ever playing Leage of Legends... its just a other level

On the topic of J.I.D, I do think it's a stretch to say he's the best in the game period but I 100% agree he is ONE of the best. And this is coming from someone who has in no particular order Kendrick, Cole, Denzel, JID and Nas in my top 5 of all time. come at me if u think that's a bad take, I admit I could be putting other legends in that list but it's my opinion and I stand by it Also unrelated but Ernest please watch Arcane, you won't regret it and you don't need to know or care about league to love a god damn near masterpiece of a show

Esports is a thing because of CoD? I guess there was MLG and the whole Faze clan thing but I'd say Esports is more of a thing because of Street Fighter, Smash Bros, LoL, and CS:GO.

RIOTs video production is literally top-notch. They are doing CRAZY stuff on crazy scopes. I would LOVE for you to react to more League content, starting with 2014's Warriors by Imagine Dragons. Worlds Intro Songs, Event Trailers and so on. So much potential :)!

You can do all of the Worlds music because they are absolute BANGERS

This was absolutely awesome an so was your fabulous reaction thanku so much love and God bless always x

As far as J.I.D goes, He is definitely up there in my own opinion as one of the best right now. I might stand on this hill alone, but I really want a Kxng Crooked & J.I.D collab.

Lupe, Jid, and Denzel are the most exciting rappers this year. DMIZ and Melt My Eyez will be the 2 best rap albums in a long time.

Oh man I’ve been waiting for you to do these! You should definitely check out more of the music videos. They’ve made their own bands from the in game skin lines and it’s insane

Was not expecting this over here 😅 . I am glad i requested this 🔥🔥

League's music always delivers.

I've never played League of Legends but Arcane is a legitimate cinematic masterpiece. Definitely worth watching.

The music and animation are all from Riot and Fortiche production’s Netflix show, Arcane, which is an amazing show. One of the best first seasons of a show I’ve seen recently. Almost Game of Thrones level of intrigue and character development, so far. Just hope they keep up the quality for season 2 and hope more people check Arcane out! You don’t need to know anything about League of Legends to watch it.

just to point out the entire scenes in the video arent all cg either, theyd already built some of the underground for their undercity lights event so the part where bea miller is walking in and the dude is chopping fish, all the way up the street isnt cg but the entire backdrop is CG so it's like a blending of reality and CGI and animated

15:25 Lol, what? Bro, League of Legends esports scene is huge. World Championship gets tens or even hundreds million views every year. It's more, than most "conventional" sport competitions will ever get.

I remember watching this when it premiered and hope you were going to react to it lol FINALLY

I think the 2020 opener is the one with real life people singing them and they hologram characters into the performance. Looked so dope.

That was the best intro to a video game tournament I've watched.

League reaction took me here! I really like it, if you are able to, i think you are going to love past league worlds opening, more rappers on them too.

PVRIS is pronounced Paris for future reference

Bro you know them boys had to feel like Super Heroes on that stage!

4:23 "All of this is CG, we're gonna ignore that" LOL

I know you're a music guy, but an Arcane reaction series would be REALLY cool from you.

Riot's music and animation have been quality for a very long time. Arcane sprung them and their champions into the limelight. but the music and animation have always been this good.. I also have to say that as you watch more cinematics and music videos, there is a good chance that you will fall in love with the champions (or at least some of them) - you are not the only one. Riot has a way of making their champions unique.

I would love to see a collaboration song with J.I.D and K.a.a.n. me personally I think that would be fire

The Gamebattles site for cod came out in 2003, and League didn't release as a game until 2009. So the cod pro scene has been around much longer than League's.

Hope he react to the real live Opening Ceremonies of Worlds. This is just a tip.

Funny story about PVRIS, they used to be called PARIS years and years back, apparently the band got into legal disputes over the name, and decided to stylize it as PVRIS. I first heard of the band by way of Love Robot (which also had a name change, haven't kept up with either band nearly as much as I'd like to) roughly 5 years ago, so yeah, seeing one of those up and coming indie alt rock bands suddenly get a stage at Worlds that one year sort of took me aback (like The Word Alive's Telle "Tyler" Smith, which I met back when he first took over for the band at a concert with Eyes Set to Kill, and literally the week after at a concert with Silverstein, just had to mention this story, I feel fucking old, and so happy to see talents I saw in my youth get the recognition they honestly deserve and fought for.).

This was way cool!

Finally we doing some league! I asked a long time ago for some league music but unfortunately people on twitch didnt support my idea at the time :/

Also. Not all just for a game. They were also connecting to Arcane... which is a dope show go watch it

I didn't see anyone telling you yet but they used 2 songs for the open. One was Enemy (Imagine Dragons, JID), from the serie produced by Riot Games Arcane, and the other was Burn It All Down (PVRIS) which is the Worlds 2021 song, they always produce a new song each year for the Worlds.

I know I commented about this also being Arcane related but... Also. I just love how blown away by all the production he is. Like this is just Worlds. This. Is. Just. Worlds. Like I'm sure seeing this as your first, it's like, wtf, this is mind blowing, but when you know what Worlds does, what the opening of ***EVERY*** Worlds is like, and how hype/hard they go? Yeah. This is just unsurprising

I highly recomend reacting to the 2018 or 2019 LOL worlds opening ceremony, they were the last ones with a crowd and they go insane

There is SO MUCH high quality league cinematics, virtual music bands like K/DA and Pentakill made by RIOT studios, lore videos like "TALES OF RUNETERRA", esports related "worlds" open cinematics and almost every single one is a BANGER, i wasn't even playing league when i got into this rabbit hole. If you have any interest you can take a look on "TRUE DAMAGE" and "POPSTARS", as good as i know this is the most popular ones. And i'm not really sure, but it seems like you have not watched "Arcane"series yet, coz there was plenty of related stuff in this video, so if it is like that i recommend it to you not as a fan of the game, but as a fan of quality content, you don't have to know anything about game to watch Arcane, also this is one of the most highly rated series of all time and it brings home 9 Annie Awards, winning in every category it was nominated for. And league reactions also popular af on YT

woaaah a league of legends reaction i like it sir ernest!

League has a ton of music videos and each worlds has an opening ceremony that always goes hard, its usually in person more on the stage but covid..

BRO I NEED YOU TO WATCH ARCANE. LIKE URGH

Imagine Dragons are HUGE League of legends fans and players. They even wrote a song for, and performed for one of the Worlds competitions (I think 2014)? but the animations in this were quick ones, Arcane itself is a fucking work of art, visually, storytelling-wise, and voice acting, and the soundtrack is FIRE. This was also the intro for everyone to Arcane, so it was extremely elaborate, but ALL the Worlds openings are pretty amazing. I mean League created not one but TWO virtual bands, Pentakill (Heavy Metal) and KDA (K-Pop) both with best selling albums (And KDA has AMAZING videos).

Seems like this guy has been living under a rock for the past 15 years.

Waiting for the K/DA reactions now xD this was dope

First time watching you. Since you're new to League and into music with emphasis on rap... you should check out K/DA "More" and K/DA "The Baddest" and K/DA "pop/stars". They are really crazy. K/DA is an animated pop group consisting of 4 league heroes and voiced by real singers. Each song has a rap section voiced by (mainly) Soyeon from the Korean pop group (G) I-dle. She is a very talented rapper who I think you would enjoy. The animated videos are top top notch. For more of Soyeon check out her song "oh my god". She raps in a mix of Korean and English and mixes the two languages seamlessly.

Damn bro your up to 223k subscribers thats fucking awesome

I definitely recommend Misfit Toys (Pusha T, Mako) from the soundtrack from Arcane (the animated show league made)

"We`re just gonna ignore that all of this is CG?" You are wrong, Fortiche`s animation mainly uses 3-D CG character models, however the props and effects are all 2-D hand-drawn animations and many of the backgrounds and close-ups are matte paintings in the style of Renaissance-era Parisian oil paintings(Because Fortiche is in Paris which influenced the look of Piltover in the series whereas Zaun much like in the source material is based on Los Angeles and Victorian London).Also, there`s no motion capture in the series, however the characters are modeled after their VAs like in motion capture.

Should be said that the place we go to after the elevator is actually a set they built for this video most if it is not actually CG. If you want you should listen to True Damage - GIANTS, it is a song Riot made in 2019 with several rappers. Also if you haven't already you should definitely check out Arcane.

That video game competition peaked at 4mil viewers

LoL worlds is actually bigger than the Olympics and Superbowl. Combined and almost doubled

Leagues music department actually slaps so hard. Go check out some of the opening ceremonies from previous worlds. Absolutely insane

that was dope

I was disappointed by (the length) denzel's verse, HOWEVER, Dynasties and Dystopia's. FIRE, absolutely sick. Unreal track and denzels' verse is too fucking hype, gotta react to that if you're checking out any LoL music

Jid is so f*cking dope.

Facts! Denzel is one of the best right now! So underrated too

PVRIS are too sick, you should check more of them out

sport means competition. no matter what kind

Hey man, you should watch Arcane if you hadn't already. Top tier story, sick fights, and fucking juicy visuals and music.

I tried pulling up J.I.D.'s lyrics from Enemy and just saying them aloud to get a feel of what he's doing, and the way he's bouncing back and forth with the rhyme schemes and vowel repetitions, the best I can compare it to is basketball dribbling by a Globetrotter. It's insane!

Arcane was the best show of 2021 and I have no shame in saying it. A genuine masterpiece... and this is coming from someone who knows absolutely nothing about LOL.

Time to watch More League of Legends Music!!

Just found this reaction page. Solid stuff. Highly recommend the 2019 worlds opening for league of legends. Giants by True Damage is an amazing track

100% should look at the other openings and other league of legends music. its all fire!!

Discord link is not workin

These artists are all on the Arcane show soundtrack that’s why they were doing this probably.

PLEASE 🙏 Watch and review Arcane the show on Netflix for us! This music video wasn't only promoting the Esports comp. But also the show Arcane.

their world finals usually get bigger numbers of people watching then the superbowl

2019 Worlds Championship Opening Ceremony Highly Recommended

Ernest please read, I have been a long time subscriber of the channel. To be specific probably ever since your first NF upload, so yes, i am apart of the NF train baby. Let's go! With that being said, I honestly think you are genuinely one of the best reactors in the game. I used to watch you all the time for songs I want to have broken down, and just hear reactions for. Ive heard every single NF song breakdown from you, and I love them. Now, I've also been playing League of Legends for many years... since 2013 roughly. Before that I played Call of Duty since 2007 with Call of Duty 4. I also used to think Call of Duty was the beginning of eSports, but was i fucking wrong. Call of Duty is a fucking baby in the eSports scene. Games like Counter Strike, Dota, League and Starcraft were WAY fucking ahead of CoD in both/either viewership or supportship. I used to worship CoD cuz it was all i knew, but bro... its so small compared to everything else. Especially NOW. And if you dont believe me look into it. look at viewership for each game championship. counterstrike always beats cod. look at prize money. fuck for prize money look at fortnite. cod is a B tier esport compared to the big dogs. I think cod had what it took in the old days, but now.... its trash. Last cod i played seriously was Black Ops 2. Funny enough... thats what every cod player asks for in competitive play is bo2 league play. When I heard you talking about CoD in this reaction with so much confidence i just thought of the old me. Someone who didnt KNOW how big eSports was until i was cheering for it. Trust me, man. It's bigger than you think. Side note: if you want a deeper reaction to this video react to the Netflix series Arcane. Super good. Ill watch. Love you, bro. I hope you read this, and that it enlightens/broadens your horizons on eSports, but you probably won't read it because you are a fairly popular dude, but I wish the best for you. Good luck with RU-vid, my friend. I will always support you because like I said... you're the best reactor out there for music. Do NOT let that effect your reactions :) just a tip.

I recommend watching the stand alone music video to Enemy by Imagine Dragons ft JID it’s a movie honestly

Thats a netflix series called Arcane and it’s actually quiet good

🔥

You should look at the the arcane music next

better be reacting to that new denzel coming soon😬😬😬

dude looks like flash thompson from MCU

You should listen to Dynasties and Dystopia by Denzel, Gizzle and Bren Joy also from the Arcane series album

League of Legends music is amazing

It's not a "fucking game", that's a "Faker's game" %)

How could you miss Arcane???? It came right after Squid game, also has 9 Episodes and got the same kinda hype (only smaller because it's animated, it's actually a better show, both really really good tho) You should watch the show or at least react to the album, it's one of my top 10 2021 and it's just an original Ost for a Netflix show haha

🔥🔥 Also, it's actually an anime

me thinking everyone has seen arcane, but ernest out here slacking 😭😭

I’m confused is this the same reaction he did on stream in 2021?

Since you like Denzel Curry listen to dynasties and dystopia from Arcane. It's a fire song!

Like others have said, check the 2019 one out. Riot can do really amazing shit when not limited by the pandemic

Arcane is a must watch show

some songs in the video are soundtrack for the Arcane Series in Netflix. one of the best show of 2021. if u have time u definitely should check it out

in 2016 or 2014, League out grossed the NHL worldwide edit: also this a Worlds Tournament with no live crowd, i recommend the 2018 FNC vs IG Opening ceremony to see the scale league is out, CoD maybe be king in the US, but league rules the world.

I would love to see you react to the LoL opening which Imagine Dragons did with Warriors (Live) 🗯

I'd love for you to react to Our Last Night's cover of the Imagine Dragons ft. JID song!

So theres currently 159 champions (Characters to play) in league and Lux(A popular character) alone has made them over a billion dollars in skins.

I wish you’d do more imagine dragons. They are quite literslly the theme music for espn during college football season every other year. I guarantee this song will be the theme this year. League paid for a high quality product and got it for imagine dragons and there is no way espn won’t use it for football, they kinda have done it for baseball already.
