Phoenix - Opening Ceremony Presented by Mastercard | 2019 World Championship Finals 

absolutely

EXACTLY they Shouldn be Music Industry

Very COOL

Kinda reminds of Metalbending from Avatar-The Last Airbender

Very Very Cool

Good songs and animation, too bad the games couldn't keep up.

Polang San me

Oh me inna heartbeat..!

Sa

she is one

She's not. By far the worst to ever step on stage.

@@makepizzanotwar2608 a kpop profile pic. your opinion is not valid. LMFAO

@@elijahjohnmendoza4105 theirs a reason u enever see her with this large crowd in the states

@@randomrazr uhh idk maybe bc the band itself isn’t mainstream like imagine dragons or zedd or Alan walker? All people that have made a song for Worlds? just bc someone is good doesn’t mean they automatically get a large audience, they have a choice.

This is playback tho

then chrissy comes and cailin is gone XD

chrissy so short they had her wear taller foot wear to match her height

I doubt they'll risk doing a live on such a big stage.

​@@vaguehenri802it's not

They got a buff from this years song

Great

Great

Wife + song = 3-0

wow it really went 3-0? so much show for what.... this is why fighting game genre is way better, there you can see real finals being taking place in a very close call matches.

Wtf they won?

Whats the score

@@amerjason3717 3-0

@@shenbenson seriously? Like wtf..

Rafael C. C. This company riot gaming is making a lot of money, I think it might has Something to do worth the fact that riot belongs to china?

I thought i was the only one crying while watching this hahaha

must be out life or our past that make us feel that way . with a good song like this it brings emotions :) i'm crying too my friend

this whole ceremony is for league of legends?

0:40 who is the random hologram lady

That is an epic moment

Goose bumps

JABBAWOKEEZ Performance for S10 Finals PLEEEAASE!!

@David Lothbrok ahahahahahaahahaha

P

Seriously Sad Records she thinks it her thing and that it cool, but its kinda old

xKenetic first I just gotta fix ur spelling or idk wut mess up xd I couldn't really understand u, u mean she still thinks it's cool but u think it's kind of old. I mean yes I agree with u it is kind of old from wut I think. But still pretty cool thought right? Not many people can do that xd just sayin.

90.0001 degrees* xD

Wenyao Xu u need to work on ure spelling aswell

@@xkenetic4673 and you too need to work on yours 🤣

Yo

same

Kirei PH That is literally where I live a few months ago

@@meiliph5605 China had 8 new cases yesterday dude... the whole world is waiting on US to move onto things like this

SHUSH!! I'm expecting BARON CGI. Don't' try to ruin it for me.

Same I stopped playing league for 2 years already but it's always a pleasure to watch how riot handles the World championship.

and then to add fpx wins it like the phoenix had to win..

TEDDYBEAR oreore they just stand their so awkwardly

Wunder don’t know what to do with his hands oof

yea lol i am realizing now that FPX buffed to this entrance song lmfao

ikr

JABBAWOKEEZ Performance for S10 Finals PLEEEAASE!!

as one user said "Smile and wave boys, smile and wave".

Another day another game eh brothers?

@Not Nightcore I think we all do 😀

you know its right before their most important match of the year? they must stay focused.

Yeah!! Dance or something!!

o/ only the last bits of 2020 opening ceremony was good but wasn't enough to save it lmao

yeah 2020 opening was WORST. Riot is just addicted to China's money now.

@@uqhziwbsiqk its because of covid tho.

It’s China bruh what were we expecting 😂

if your looking for music.. go watch a kpop or any pop music videos.. riot is a gaming company.. the game and the finals is the main course.. music is just a bonus to that

I think its more like oh welp this is pretty epic 😂

Mar Da Demigod why do you think fpx (the asians) won

Mar Da Demigod it’s the question of education don’t worry bud

FPX showed up to win, G2 was just happy to be there. 😅

only wonder looks 'serious'

Mohamed Aissa (The following is a personal view of this years open ceremony) I think it's kind of bad or if u want to say boring this year xd very first thing we all should notice that the stage isn't as big as 2017 n 2018s stage. I love Phoenix but all the other songs are just too quiet it doesn't really fit the leagues style and the strong feeling when u listen to it.

Not at all

@@uniquerod52 The venue was a tricky one, the weather at the time was not suitable for an open top stadium since it was autumn/winter and unlike in Asia where it's warmer. People would be in an open top stadium in Paris freezing with the chance of rain. They also had to find a big enough indoor stadium that was available for the time. They found AccorHotels Arena and that must of been the most suitable stadium that could be booked at the time.

And then there's rise

yeah the kda one kinda flopped but hopefully they either make a super cool kda one with the baddest or do something else really cool

True

I hope next year they become four.

Rafael C. C. lpl disagree!

Like a phoenix, they will rise again!

Until the Penta One

Yea that was really cool, mad respects to them

I dont know maybe im dumb but doesnt look that realistic like the elder dragon

@@kleddo3126 it doesn't look that realistic because it was done with a trasparent screen in front of the stage

In Russia we call it: "Is that a coincidence? I don't think so".

" The truth is: the game was riged from the start"

@@Petexlp good reference

@@n3squ1k666 yea, I have similar thought)

@@n3squ1k666 Nah it is "Coincidance"

The reviewer ?

nghe mùi hãng game làm MV hay hơn làm Game =)))

China bought the game

I've been waiting for the opening ceremony since the World's started and it worth it I guess even if it's too short than the past year's ceremonies :/

Tony U R Ridiculous

Chrissy is stunning so her outfit is it too.

I know right, what a gorgeous woman

Nam Trần well, gordon ramsay is stunning too

My name's NINOOO

Had a stroke reading this comment

Cringe lmao

The only team has 3 world championships

Dark storm more with soyeon

I mean she deserves it

just you xD

Nah, you all are wrong, they love Soyeon and Chrissy (at least me tho)

this woman's spine has to be made from elastic.

it sfunny how chrissy needs to wear shoe risers so she doesnt appear short compared tot he blonde girl LOL

Hahahahaha

😂😂 I can't.... just... take your like and go

LOL

OMG XD Ya look at his face and that creepy laugh xD

LMAOOO

That not vfx that is hologram You didnt see the glasses be font of them when they come in to the stage ?

Yeah that's a 3D holonet display. It's ABSOLUTELY SICK! Last year they had VFX... but this year it was real

@@kitewj2435 vfx is literally just video effects.

Yes!!

because its full playback performance?

@@tomaskarasek5874 it s not at the start

@@maythouma2339 bro they r not singing live

@@tomaskarasek5874 bro, both are signing live, only at the end was a little playback.

She was really amazing, the other girl too. I guess Riot wanted Chrissy back after the disapointing rise opening last year xD

@@elriaastryder2430 I remember back to 2017 when she performed live Legends Never Die and everyone was like: That doesnt sound like the original one. So i was kinda suprised Riot wanted Chrissy back. This year she showed how much she improved since 2017. Dont get me wrong, 2017 was good in my opinion, I just know that many were a bit disappointed.

The singing was really good however i dont think that the audio was balanced well enough in the live performance since they sounded a bit bland, also they couldve been louder

She did great this year! And I really like her voice. Still don't get what's the thing with her bending back creepily all the time tho xD

They literally had the full audio playing from the original song (at least as soon as Chrissy's part came up) and her voice was way too quiet to even say that she did 'amazing'. They basically sang on top of the studio version. The other girl's voice was louder, so Riot probably knew they couldnt turn Chrissy's voice up that high after her legends never die performance...not trying to be mean, that's just my impression

Lip sync

No, she sang it live

@@eblader5577 This is 100% lip sync. It sounds identical to studio version and you can't hear her voice mixing with the backing track. She didn't sing at all.

@@eblader5577 it's lip sync.

@@eblader5577 it's lip sync and we're cool with it

With the players appearing next to it... Didn't expect it! The goosebumps!!

@@Cuxaven The crowd's reaction was amazing as well I think this was the best opening ceremony yet

That's what they said

They scripted it, not predicted. Anyone woke realizes that

sauce? -Lancer

Lol _ScrIpTeD_

@Fear Speciar esp game 2, G2 are like clowns, scatter brains :> Craps being cocky, he needs a new name, Baby DoinB suits him well.

DerKleineJim Jim They did the same with kda. What did u expect

@Sammy im pretty sure that kda got released before the ceremony, because i remember i could already sing along when the ceremony started

@@jimbeambeamt8168 i think it released 1 week before the ceremony, tho i was dissapointed by this year's song...

Γιάννης Παν It wasn’t 1 week lol it was the same day

DerKleineJim Jim Must’ve been released not much time before the ceremony then because it was definitely released on the same day. Probably just an hour early or so.

Shadouw Surivas i doesnt sound live

@@Linda-kl6nj At least the start of Phoenix seems to be live vocals, it sounds not completely perfect like the studio version - so it seems to be live. And if thats true, it was very good!

The darkness with the animations really help

maybe it was prerecorded, not the studio version nor live

@@daydreamia Yes maybe thats true but I still think its just live. You know, there are artists who can sound live better than the studio version. :D But everybody has different opinions on that so theres actually no point in rly discussing this.

hannah v i think its also because this song is easier to sing than legends never die

its a lipsync lol

LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO better than rise? yeah sure dude. Apart from mako ruining the start, rise was wayyyy better than this

@@mousaseblani Both songs is great in there own genre we can't compare it with different genre. Phoenix is more inspirational and has more motivation just not in the game but in real life conquering your fears and regrets is this song all about in otherhand Rise is more a hype ans grind motivation song which is also great me personally like those kind of music and type of genre, but Phoenix has more heart and emotional side on it looking on Faker, Caps, and Rookie's stories on how they will get past and learn from there choke plays and anxiety and regrets which is hard to overcome with people's and viewers hoping so much to you can't imagine the pressure they going thru. Still both songs are great and well composed best motivational songs to climb up the league ladder hope i can experience this kind competitiveness.

They're not even singing 😅

嘿！你还别说

Me also i like 2017 ceremony than 2019.

오랜만에 보고 왔는데 마지막 줄 맞는말 ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

It was really amazing to feel the emotion and the energy of the audience

For all the other things that keep getting changed around with the game, it’s nice riot respects that there’s legacy behind the trophy and not to mess with it.

me too

_now u cant use the bus_

CHRISSY IS DA BEST!!!

Yah i can see “it”

That moment when Riot asks you to perform your signature move because it's really cool for their choreography.

They lost?

@@amerjason3717 3-0'd by fpx

@@amerjason3717 G2 lost 3:0 to FPX sad...

They didnt collapse. Riot paid them to lose to script the world finals so they gain publicity. It syncs with the song. Its obvious

@@adnox383 what about them losing the finals, gains Riot publicity? "OMG the song name is the same as the name of the winning team! obviously scripted!!!!" lol

It's because now she's more used to singing in front of that many people, her fanbase isn't that big yet so concerts are mostly in smaller buildings

She had to sing legends never die infront of 60 thousand people PLUS the 78 million watching the stream..that was her first experience even being infront a large crowd like this

She seemed SO nervous when she did that song live, now she doesn't seem that nervous so nice to see her grow!

@@hansoloq3467 I mean she's played festivals and arenas but you could be right about the stream. I always thought it had more to do with being in an open air arena in winter in the freezing cold tbh

Who tf is Chrissy as a child

@@YeahChance chrissy constanza. started youtube when she was like 14.

XDDD
