exactly! i was sooo disappointed, it looked so good.. then they released the cyro hammer one (iforgot the name of the melee but it was like an icy hammer) and i thought that animation would look so good with the soulstrife scythe (if the scythe was longer)
@@xqqz2440you’re bugging. The fact the they called it a “scythe” and gave it axe animations had me so mad. If soulstrife looked like this? I would totally agree. Happy we got a legit scythe though ✊🏾
This bundle is a direct reference to one of League's popular skin lines: Coven and primarily Elder Gods. Long story short, Covens need sacrifices to speak to their Elder Gods, thinking that an Ace is a full sacrifice and you can see the Elder God after. Also, the markings on the side of the gun indicates enemy player's character ultimate icons.
@@guwopzyfor the markings technically it didn't have to add more since there's only 5 different agents on the enemy and the finisher most likely will be the same as the 5k one
Is there specific indication that this is a reference to the league skin and not just like the actual origins of concepts like that in lovecraftian horror?
@@KesHaphU can search up the covens and old gods skin, u will see a lot of similarities between the skin line and the gun skins. Specifically OLD GOD Ivern like seen in the finisher
Skins will simply never be justified for that price for me. If I can buy a high quality indie game, A double, or triple A game for the price of a skin bundle, something is wrong. I don't get how they get away with this. Edit: A few genuine answers, thank you for that. For those arguing in the replies, yes, I do think it's better than crates. It is a free to play game, but that doesn't justify the price, it only serves as an excuse to me. However, atleast it isn't 60 dollars and still has skins that expensive. For those saying it isn't mandatory to buy them, you're right, but it is still an unreasonable price and abusing the Fomo. Val is far from the only game that does it, but any game that does, falls into the same problem. I don't play anymore thanks to a not so welcoming community, both in and out of ranked, so I don't have some of the connection to this game that some of you have. It is nice to see people agree with me, even those who spent money. Most of yall here are chill and I appreciate it! Edit 2: A FTP game doesn't need skins that expensive to stay afloat. I've seen many games with zero Fomo, under 20 dollar skins, and bring in 200k players. A battle pass for 10 dollars, and maybe a skip 20 levels for 20, is plenty when you have a player base as large as Val has. Combine that with 5-20 dollar skins and you're golden. The battle pass has multiple skins and is self renewable, unless you want to buy a skin worth the same or more than the battlepass itself. If anything, they'd sell more if it didn't cost as much, which would help compensate the lower prices. Combine those compensations with the simple fact that the employees probably don't get paid enough, and calling it necessary to keep the game free starts to sound stupid now doesn't it? Edit 3: I've started to realize this comment might be doing more harm than good.
*Info:* 8700 VP | Classic, Bulldog, Marshal & Phantom | White/Yellow + Red Grey + Full Black + Purple. | Markings on the side are Ultimate Icons of people you kill. I showcase that in the video!
@@rts9944 Assuming it lines up with the Araxys pricing, the knife will be 4,350 VP. But they have been constantly increasing the price of knives for over a year. Weapons: 2,175 VP each Knife: 4,350 VP Assuming there is a buddy, playercard, and spray: the buddy would be 475 VP, the card will be 375, and the spray will be 325 VP.
Classic = Old God mordekaiser's head Marshall = Old God Malphite Bulldog = Thousand Pierce Volibear Phantom = Old God Nocturne or Warwick Finisher = Old God Ivern
@@alexandriteqween9760 I think they just don't play League, but this whole bundle is literally Old God, I forgot to mention the Scythe is actually Old God Warwick
Named after Noctorn, finisher is Ivern. Riot saving money on asset for sure Oh and the Phantom model looks like volibear mask from thousand pierced volibear mask riot is really saving asset money with this one
They really did cook with this one, the marshal is insane and the knife is an absolute abomination, the way the knife transforms into a dagger and a scythe looks so powerfull and so incredibly cool! They messed up the soulstrife scythe tbt they definitely redeemed themselves with this one.
the finisher is not just a monster. this is old god ivern, a champion skin from lol. this line of skins called old god and coven. its about ancient gods and high fashion dark witches!
for the finisher: there are markings for all the enemy agents on the side of the gun, once all of them are filled, you get the full finisher. the markings can all be filled out in diffrent rounds (I think), which means, that you don't need to get an ace for the full finisher.
why are yall bullying this poor guy he didnt get far enough in the video and noticed it, if you really wanna say stuff like "almost like he said it in the video 🤡" just say "he also said it later in the video" he was just tryna be helpful and point out something he noticed
@@hradyamshrivastava4456 dude im not trying to be mean I SWEAR but did you really just call a scythe? one of the most famous/infamous weapons throughout history "arleccino's weapon"?....and gen z wonders why ppl call them cooked lol like cmon bro
the god appears once you've killed each enemy once. That's what the markings on the side of the gun are for. They represent the agents you play against and once you've killed them all at least once, the finisher will upgrade. EDIT: just clarifying that it doesn't need to be an ace. You could kill 3 enemies in the first round and then the rest in the second and it would then upgrade, no ace needed
Debating on getting it since I have existing skins for Phantom and knife, that being the Champions skins. That being said, the scythe knife really sells it and I could use a solid Bulldog skin.
Not really chaps is a 1 time deal you will never get it again but this bundle will come back at some point so were not missing out really but I like champs better anyway so
0:19 Ayo this finisher looks like the Thousand pierced bear Volibear Skin... No wonder I was like I've seen this somewhere 😂 Edit: People have a problem with what other people see in something I guess. But the finisher colours and thematic is like thousand pierced bear volibear skin. If only people had the common sense to search it up once and see what I'm talking about, instead of fixating on the word "volibear" when I'm talking about the "skin" of voli :)
I think it's perfect for Fade. The whole theme and aesthetic of her nightmares and the fact shes a bounty hunter crossing off the names of each agent she kills lighting up on the gun is my headcanon
I'm gonna get it regardless because the skin is sick but I'm unhappy about the gun selection too. The one you suggested is great, but I think a ghost and an Op would be sick too
@@pumpkinpioneer2280he is usually rude for no reason just to get some views and spread misinformations and stupid opinions(f.g. deluxe bundle should have the same animations as a premium bundle), no one wonders if someone finds it's offensive🤷♂️
Apart from what's already pointed out. The skins themselves is a reference to each Old God. 1. Finisher: Old God Ivern 2. Phantom: Coven Eve's Lashers 3. Marshal: Leviathan (Coven Nami's god) 4. Buldog: Old God Warwick 5. Classic: Old God Mordekaiser
i think the finisher is complete if you kill every agent on the enemy team at least once, not really if you get the ace beacuse it wouldnt really make sense taking into account that for some ppl aces are rare
Old god skins coming to valorant. Thats nice. Would have loved some new characters instead of reusing th league ones tho.. Last kill is Ivern, Pistol is Mordekaiser (Without his teeth), Bulldog is Volibear, Marshall is Malphite and Phantom is Nocturne. The Knife isnt clear tho Warwick is the only league champ missing. Could also be Elder Dragon who is exclusive to Legends of Runeterra. Tho its nice to have the references.
It's interesting that the skin has similar colors to the Fade abilities, and curiously the fade is in the kinematics and the bundle has something to do with pacts
those skulls on guns and the thing that is on the finisher are actually refering to League of legends skins (Coven/elderwood/old god), first there is old god ivern, skull on bulldog > thousand pierced volibear, skulll on marshal > old god malphite.. That skull on phantom looks close to nocturne tho
