I love Neeko, her personality is so innocent and playful, she just caused a slaughter without realizing or intending it 😂. I don’t know why people give so much importance to her being lesbian, it’s actually pretty cool, it adds variety to league lore, people need to learn to see these characters as what they are, just characters and pretty well developed characters I must say but it is truly a shame riot didn’t explore her relationship with Nidalee a bit more.
Maskim Galgo yeah but it wasn’t her intention, technically the soldiers were the ones responsible, they were the ones who decided to kill the intruder on sight instead of capturing him/her or something.
I might be wrong but the people who are pissed about it are usually not the most tolerant... I mean, they keep saying "i don't care about her sexuality" but they surely are bothered if they're so mad about it, pretty much like "I'm not homophobic but please stop holding hands like this, it's indecent". If she was straight with the exact same type of writing, no one would have complained I bet
I'm pretty sure the original concept for Draven was that he was a lizard man who lived in the jungle and threw axes, so maybe they are picking up that old idea
"you know league has a magical world, to riot it serves as a playground for their imagination. They can truly make anything there, insane murderers, genocidal tyrants, soul consuming torturers. But dont you dare to make fictional alien character attracted to her own gender, that is clearly crossing the line" GOLDEN
@tiecoonracoon You also have to consider the fact that riot recently just made diversity hires because of "game journalist" hit pieces. People are worried these idiots are trying to turn league into something it's not. We don't care if a character is lesbian or gay, we care if you shoved it in there for the sake of politics or diversity.
Cheesebreads?? Oh my god. I see what's happening. The voice actress for Neeko is Brazilian, you can clearly identify her accent. Pão de queijo is a food popular throughout all of Brazil, and when translated literally, it means cheese bread. The actress probably had a hand in Neeko's food taste. Also, another fun fact, the actress is bisexual, so it's really cool that she got to voice League's first LGBT character
Kinda right. No one bats an eyelash at mass murderers, but when a champion is shown to have a “preference” besides killing shit, everyone loses their mind.
I don't think it's really the fact that she's a lesbian but the fact that it's really unexpected and it's incredibly new. It's different and if league of legends patches tell you anything, people hate change. Personally I was also very skeptical at first because some of my friends were too excited and her orientation seemed more important than her gameplay. But in the end I understand that it's fun to have representation in your favorite game/world. So I don't think people should get angry when people aren't a fan of it right now, they'll come to accept it in time.
It's just another trait of the character, like being a loudmouth, or being stoic. It shouldn't be that big of a deal but it's part of the fantasy that some people enjoy the game for. People will come around. Realistically it's pretty ignorable, people can just turn down the voice lines if it bothers them that much lol
i dont see why so many people get so upset over this characters backstory yet evelynn can be a succubus and its ok , what we all should be worried about is her E and R combo into a group fight
Neeko is a chameleon. Chameleons are known to blend and camouflage. Neeko could become any1. Chameleons come in many colors. LGBT has the rainbow. Neeko is colorful. Neeko is LGBT. Neeko is ALL. And All is Neeko. Neeko is a chameleon because of those reasons.
I made an ability list to Kuulcan based on his appearance, I hope someone notices Passive: Predatory skin - after brief amount of time, he changes his skin and heals 2% of his missing health up to 20% on level 18. Q: Prey taste(targeted) - He can eat small minions or small monster and the ability to recast it again to spit dealing damage to the eaten minion or monster and to the enemy hit. Or bite large monsters or enemy champions dealing physical damage to them giving short bleed effect. W: Patience(self effect) - Upon activating, he briefly became invisible(Stealth) for 1.5 seconds, and refreshes the invisibility time by .5 seconds if he is near a bush or in one. He then gains attack speed upon exiting invisibility. E: Preparatory(self effect) - After a short cast time he gains Massive movement speed and the ability to move through units for a short period of time. If casted before W, he retains the movement speed while invisible. R: Reptilian Frenzy(targeted) - Using his tail, he holds an enemy making him and the target unable to move. He then attacks the enemy twice as fast than his current attack speed, He can also cast Q on the duration and W before the root ends.
I see tham kench, darius, janna, kha'zix and evelin stuff the R is really diferent(altouht it fills like ww r mixed with lucian passive damn it why is it so hard to make stuff 100% different from the rest)
People hate Neeko because the dev team spent more time making references to her sexuality, just to get virtue signaling points in the LGBT community, than they spent balancing her AP ratios.
This is like when people complain that a game company should stop making new visuals for a game, and focus on making bugfixes. It's 2 very different teams working on either of those, and I don't think it would be very constructive to ask one of the artists to go help out with bugfixing lol.
*"we just want a champ that isn't that JUST because'* So every other champ is hetero.. just because. Is that a problem? It's a fictitious universe. Everything is "just because." Let them write the story they want. People on the internet and their persistent bitching...
Thing with Neeko, I do not care what gender she is. But i care about how a character gets portrayed, i mean she just got stated as lesbian and look what happend. Its all she stands for. I love the design of her, it is really cute but it just doesnt seem like she would identify as lesbian herself or does it to you? You can put it into her lore and voicelines but i dont want to hear a characters that and that from Twitter or so.
Please kuulcan, a lizard with a lance like pullarm that he can slash, a heavier one. Not like xin's he could maybe have a slash ability that could be recasted as a dash or something. And he could have a shield ability called like thicken or something where he gets a percentage of his hp as a shield. And he could have a thing where he has a passive e that when near champions he gains sense or something and when he casts sense he gains true sight and bosus ms towards them. His r could be like. An empower of an ability. So he presses r and he can gain 2x as much speed when goin toward someone with e or maybe he could get shed from empowered shield which allows him to cast his w and recast it which maybe heals him or something kind of like its new skin instead of the old scratched up skin. And maybe his q could be an empowered slice for a percentage of his bonus mana as damage. That would be cool. And his leap could give him a small stun. Maybe as long as akali ult. Very short
So sad that the last of her species turns out to be a genetic dead-end due to her deviance. I hope she bumps into Fiora tho... Btw nobody was saying it so I may as well say it... Neeko Neeko Nee!
you can think what you want but god forbid you speak it out loud. you could offend one of the 8.x billion snowflakes out there with every single one of their totally reasonable interpretations of "gender" o:
Neat video! As a fan of Nidalee, I'm actually curious about Nidalee's biological parents, whether they're still alive or not. If they're alive, I wish Nidalee could see them again. Maybe we would find out how Nidalee was left in the jungle as well.
I am glad that you didn't do the whole " LeSbiAN " thing, its all people focus on with Neeko, like yay its awesome that she is our first openly gay character( Val and Kai don't count cause you play Varus, not them). But all people seem to care about is that when it comes to her lore.
While watching your video I was filled with strange feeling, something in the back of my mind. Then I realized, Skyrim... my head is spining like crazy like now beacause I spent last 10 minutes by thinking about what made me feel so odd, like I heard something familiar. Yep, it was cause of the skyrim music in the background, thought I was going crazy back there.
neeko is about looks,, thats why she makes so many comments about how the female champions are pretty. like how zoe is supposed to act like an awkward preteen. its just her character
You show a comment that I think you think is pointless outrage but hes right, if some chad walks up to you and starts talking about the girls he's into or his sexual preferences it's going to annoy you, that doesn't change because it's a quirky lesbian.
