Open up a big twitch streamer's RoL stream, link your twitch account to your Riot Games account, set the stream to 144p and leave it muted in the background. I got access after 2 days of having Disguised Toast on in the background like that.
I heard that the lonely poro story is actually the other way around, that the poro herder found the lonely poro so it was no longer alone. I like that version better.
The game itself actually supports this idea, if you play the poro created by that card it turns into a happy version with flowers and grass instead of snow
This would be an awesome Baron type careature who paths through the jungle at 40 mins and gives some crazy buff. Forces crazy team fights in awkard spots while trying to secure a pve boss.
The archery stance is more or less for a side shooting style. The archer will hold the bow horizontal while pulling the string back, not the most efficient way to shoot a bow but you can shoot it nonetheless.
He also could just have the arrow nocked but isn't actually ready to shoot yet. There's not much tension on the string. It's possible when he's ready he'll stand and draw, and if he uses a normal stance is palm will be facing his cheek like nornal. The only thing really strange to me is only his index finger is pulling the string which be really uncomfortable. Usually you'd have at least the index and middle finger, and maybe the ring finger depending on preference. But I think using just an indes would be possible if you trained enough that way. I don't want that callous.
@@jimbojones2211 The index finger.... my SO uses this technique while horseback shooting, they put some tension on the string so that the arrow doesn’t fall out. It shouldn’t anyway, but this way you can somehow controll the amount of vibration going into the string from the horse. It’s also much more comfortable. As for the string, it should definetly be under the hand, I can’t imagine anyone drawing and shooting like that, maybe it would be possible if the bow stayed horizontal...? But you would definetly hit the cloth on your arm and unsettle the arrow, meaning you would almost certainly miss
@@Dr_Whoo7 I shoot split fingers on my olympic and 3 under for my trad bow 😂. It's all about comfort and prefference.Also you can shoot a bow with 1 finger, a thumb ring is put on your opposable finger and you draw with that. I've shot a lot of bows and arrows in 6 years since i started the sport but thumb style is kinda slower that split fingers or 3 under. Also Turkish , Persian and Hungarian techniques are for speed shooting 😉
Hear me out, the lonely poro got friends when the winter ended, since in the poro herder cars shows melted snow which would be a strange addition unless it was to show that winter passed and the poro was found
When you play the lonely poro, he spawn a random 1 cost poro into your hand, and when you play this spawned poro, the lonely poro become (i don't remember exact name, start with J) "happy" poro. So yeah, i guess this version of the story is more certain than Necrit's one.
Yes. The quote under the Lonely Poro card was from the Poro Herder himself. Why would he see a Poro alone and not help him, unless the Poro won't move for whatever reason.
New Champ: Bjerg the Wanderer Passive: You gotta believe me!: Allies gain 15-45% movement speed when facing away from Bjerg, (or being attached). *Q: Pleashe, lischen to me!!! (AoE Cone on Single Champion): Bjerg reaches his hand towards closest champion, attaching himself to the target (similar to Yuumi), stealing a portion of its defenses and slows them down for a long duration. Target is also grounded and disarmed, but can remove Bjerg by attacking itself with no damage at all. Champions on both sides can remove Bjerg by hitting the attached target only 2 times, but both Bjerg and the target will take damage. Bjerg can also attach himself to an ally, and both of them will accumulate their total armor and magic resist as one, but both of them will share the same damage. Bjerg can detach himself from the target whenever he can. (Hits Bjerg can take to be removed by his attached target: 2-4) *W: What was that? (Passive): Bjerg can detect movements from bushes or those in camouflage when idling or is attached to someone, though they can't distinguish who is hiding. Bjerg will also sneeze if a hidden enemy champion is lurking nearby. (Active): Bjerg (or to his allied attached target) gain to dodge incoming attacks for a short duration. If Bjerg takes damage when saving his ally, only Bjerg will be affected forced movement such as Pull, Knock-up and Knock-back. releasing his grasp from his ally. *E: HUUUGE TREE-SHAKING ROAR!!! A wild Yeti roar burst aroung Bjerg, scaring everyone including Bjerg in terror (you can direct Bjerg and his attached target to a direction where he will flee). Enemies will take damage by the roar. *R: AaaaaaaAAaaaAaaaaah!!! Bjerg unstoppable runs into a direction (knocking his attached target away from Bjerg upon activation). While running, Bjerg will knock targets caught by his run aside. Meanwhile an omen starts to circling around Bjerg, indicating that something is about to happen. Pressing R again after 2 seconds of running, the circle stops and Bjerg jumps away from that circle, which following comes a huge blast created by "She Who Wanders" 20:01 , dealing huge damage who got caught in the area and leaving a seared area that burns them. You can cast "E" while he run , changing his running direction. Also Bjerg will jump away from the circle onto available area he can land on (can pass through walls)
No fuck you, this is how op champs are made ... Literally last year i remember people in league community joking about how riot will make a champ that can heal, give adaptive damage, stun and be untargatable ... And then, they made Yuumi
@@sen2 but at this point it's pretty unlikely that there will be massive changes and I bet they have planned out way more than we could have imagined. I mean.. all of what is in this game was already planned quite some time ago..
@@sen2 Seeing as they have only one Lore department, and that department literally made a comic with Marvel and the the game balance seems unchanged says otherwise.
scattered isnt the word. LOL is completely devoid of lore. which works with the way champions are balanced. LOR is a better tool to push lore anyway, especially if you single player card campaign mode events with VO like in the tutorials
As an archer myself: There are a couple of archery styles. None of them require you to hold your bow sideways but in gaming you ofthen see it like this. Why? Because a vertical bow splitting your screen looks awefull. In real life, there are no disadvantages nor advantages. So therefore there is not a general rule for holding the string if you do put your bow sideways. But if I could choose (and I grabbed my bow to see what is most comfortable) I do grab the string like the guy in the art. 10:13
It actually gives an advantage for hunting in close surroundings like Forests. You don't have to reveal much of your body by Shooting like this while standing behind trees and so there is less movement that could alarm your prey. However since today we don't need to hunt our food in forests (or anywhere else really) it's not common to shoot a bow like that.
“Unearthly light flooded the valley as a piercing wail rattled the rocks from the cliffs, my sinews from their bones, the very thoughts from my mind! Then... silence.” - Bjerg the Wanderer This is the description for the spell cast by She Who Wonders, since, much like vlad she auto casts obliterate. I don't know how relevant this is but here it is
They Who Endure and She Who Wanders slightly resemble the voidborn from the Ryze: Call of Power cinematic which, according to the map, was located far in the uninhabited North
Also I just realized that there is a spell card linked to She Who Wanders that Necrit skipped. It is named Balesight and its description is: “Unearthly light flooded the valley as a piercing wail rattled the rocks from the cliffs, my sinews from their bones, the very thoughts from my mind! Then... silence.” - Bjerg the Wanderer At this point I am convinced that these things are related to the Void.
I found this description of a monster (which, judging by the context, could be a Watcher emerging from the Howling Abyss) in Gnar's bio which fits They Who Endure and She Who Wanders: "Heaving itself up from the newly opened abyss, it bore huge horns, whipping tentacles, and a single eye, burning with strange light that made the fur on Gnar’s back crawl. While some mortals fled at the sight, he began to feel an odd pain in his chest-it was like the thought of losing his boomerang, or never being hugged again."
Also, Anivia is just a reverse phoenix that could build walls of ice. But he meant that in a story, Volibear is a mysterious terrifying being, that consumes corpses on the battlefield and suppresses all though with it's will.
hey necrit. about the bow. this kinda style help you to walk/shoot more silently and in defferent ways. you can rotate bow much easier and even shot with more power and stability. but it's not an standard holding

Thank you for everything that you do and for being yourself. Hope you receive lots of fame and fortune which you deserve. :)
When Legends of Runeterra, Arcane, and the other unlrevealed titles have been announced, I was immediatly hyped by the new lore and worldbuilding that will come along. Such a huge amount of new content is such a short time is sooooooooo cool. I just hope the Map of Runeterra isn't gonna be gathering dust for much longer... It's been a while since the last update
there are interactive lines that may hint at things of lore, such as the card "she who wanders". if it's played while a tryndamere is on the field tryndamere will say, "Fellwalkers? omens of dark times." or something along those lines. Essentially we know they are called fellwalkers.
I cannot wait for Legends of Runeterra. I have always loved the flavor text on the in-game items like deadmans plate and ancient coin, so seeing that we are finally getting some additional lore on some item origins makes me so excited. And I LOVE the lore of the Freljord. I do like the whole void born bit but I'd be even more excited for new gods or beasts yet to be discovered from the true north. I can't wait for the release!
Yes it is how you shoot a bow. Notice how he is holding the arrow between the fore and middle finger, it is so you have more control while drawing back on the string, which by the looks of that bow would range between 40 and 80 lbs of pressure.
that arrow in his heart, isn't just in his heart, but it pierced through from the back, that's punching through ribs, and from the angle probably the lungs too. that's a brutal arrow shot
never seen or heard of style of archery where they pull the string over their hand but what i do know is that when you shoot a bow there is a style that they softhen their grip to the bow so that the remaining force of the bow will spin from underhand to overhand and will prevent the string on hitting your hand
Man I got goosebumps the further I watch this video, this game have so much potential that I believe they can do a lore event that moves the story further, much like hearthstone adventures I can imagine them doing an amazing job to do these kind of stuff. Guess we don't need an MMO to have the lore move forward and progress through, and I'm happy with this.
Necrit, yes technically that is a way that you could hold a bow but there is one major flaw in that his right arm should be over the bow as opposed to under it. The way that he is currently holding the bow he would be unable to perform a full draw as the string would be forced to stop at his shoulder area where you usually want to draw to your lips/nose. I had to check a few times as the hands that I use when I do archery are switched but the style he is holding it in would be fine if they were to move the arm holding the bow over the string as opposed to under it. Love the content man, keep up the good work.
My theory on Tryn is still that he picked up Aatrox and similar to Kayn fought the Darkin for dominance. Aatrox gave up trying to warp Tryndamere's body though due to it being too much hassle when there were other available vessels to inhabit but he still left a bit of himself in Tryn, hence his rage making him stronger, letting him survive life threatening injuries and heal his wounds
Something I noticed with the Enraged Yeti quote is that it's a reference to the Princess Bride. When discussing Rodents Of Unusual Size with Buttercup, Westley makes the comment, "R.O.U.S.'s? I just don't think they exi---" and is promptly attacked by one.
She who wanders is called a balestrider, which to frejlordians is a bad omen. You can even buy a cute little balestrider as a companion in the in game store.
I like how you can tell apart to whose tribe they belong by how they dress alone. Avarosans wear light blue colours and well crafted clothing. The Frost Guards wear black iron armours, with black clothing underneath. And the Winter's Claw wear animal fur and poorly assembled clothes of a brownish tone. This is great.
The way the Avarosans draw the bow is similar to the Mongolian way of drawing a bow. It gives speed and stability to the arrow when firing an arrow when you are mounted or moving.
That huge glowing eye-thing on She Who Wanders looks pretty much like the eye from 19:49 (a bit dimmer glow because it's covered in ice) and its structure, long neck and huge eye, make it a great observer(watcher) of a vast surrounding area. IMO these are actually the frozen watchers. And a sidenote - I honestly have no clue of the timeframe in which the card's story takes place, but as far as I can tell, we have no clue if Lissandra knows their awake or not. It might be the the advent of their reemergence. Oh, and I love the content, top quality and a keen eye for detail!
10:00 You can shoot a bow like that holding bow horizontally, but it's more suited for closer range and requires more practice, since it's harder to aim properly. It's like shooting a gun without using sights. It is faster and easier to shoot arrows in succession like this, though. Keeping arrow between index and middle finger is pretty normal, since you pull string with your fingers while holding arrow stable.
Many must've thought about this already, but my theory is that Tryndamere's undying ability comes from him battling off Kindred. I think actually all Fjeljordian creatures give Kindred a hard time reaping them, which is why they are so hard to kill. I got the idea originally from your 'Still here' -analysis.
I really want a Skyrim-like RPG set in the Freljord+North, having these massive eldritch creatures roaming around would really sell the "insignificant character in a massive ancient frozen land" feel.
I just want to point out how absolutely clever all the moving pieces of the cards interactions and lore are. Before I had read the card descriptions, I had just heard Babbling Berg's play sounds. He says "It was big as a mountain!" "Eyes like torches!" "It was covered in Ice!" and I thought, that's funny, its just a senile old guy who saw some people walking on the side of a mountain and thought their torches were part of some nonsensical beast. Then you look into the yeti cards and you think, Ah, he must have seen a yeti, that makes more sense. And then they hit you with the true mixup, he was actually being completely accurate, it was no over-exaggerated yeti, he was actually being completely truthful. This is some quality stuff.
I belive the lonely poro card was the other way around he was alone but when winter was over the herder came and he became one of the fluft (since u can see snow melting)
I'm pretty sure the feral mystic is a follower of the colinear, because when his ability activates (after being enlightened) he is saying probably in pain: my body isn't mine anymore or something very similar. So it suggests he is possessed by the volibear or something like that.
10:00 No, it is not a way to hold a bow. After you knock the arrow (Putting it on the string), you put three fingers on top of the string, one above the arrow, two below, and to fire, you pull it all the way back to your chin, aim, and release. You never hold it above your fingers unless you want some deep cuts on your fingers.
All this new lore is making me so excited! I´m only getting more and more intrested in learning more about Runeterra. Great video btw, keep up the good work Necrit! :)
The she who wanders ability is called balesight and is literally a laser that obliterates all small creatures. So yeah they fire lasers from their eyes.
Anivia in her own eyes: subtle, calm, and everything she does is righteus Anivia in old legends: Imma tickle my bro Ornn's nose so that he will burn his precious house down becosue Imma jelous of it
Necrit, when they talked about the volibear art they also mentioned that his art is the "original form". In other words, that's how he USED to be, but he turned into the total abomination after warmongering for a long time.
At the trapper how did you not see the yeti in background? "something is scaring them" THERE IS A 10M YETI probably protecting the less intelligent animals.
@Necrit Archer here, the Avarosan Marskman is holding the string in an almost impossible way, my guess is artist didn’t want to hide the string. It should always be between the hands. Other then the string being for some reason above, he is holding the bow the correct way... kinda? You almost never shoot the bow the other way, it might look cool, but it’s pretty stupid. You always want your hand that pulls the string to face your face with your palm (like you wanted to slap yourself) and the fingers wrap around the string, usually three, if you aim by the eye, three below, if you have a sight, then one above, two below. Also, you should always stay sideways, don’t move your neck and aim with the eye that is closer to the hand you are pulling with. And the bow is vertical, not horizontal (at least the proper and most acurate way, we tried shooting while squatting/laying down, and you just can’t aim effectively, you have to guess it)
In Archery, There are some cases when you hold a bow like that, but the string goes UNDER the hand. But now that i'm thinking about it, If the bow is built to be shot in such a way, then it could work...
Some arches gave the arrow going on the right side so that they can put a new arrow on faster. Alot of warriors use to do this. Also aiming with two eyes is better then 1 for archery
I wonder if we'll ever "step in" the true north. Anyways, yes, you can hold a bow that way. It's an unusual stance because in competitive archery you don't move, you have to hit a target while standing but when you are hunting you use "hit and run". Bows are typically big and if you hold them vertically it's troublesome because it impedes your movement. Other way of doing it is just tilting them a bit instead of full horizontal stance. But well, we can pardon that to the amazing art team + it looks cooler. Shadow Isles next btw.
