Ahri "missed" her charm, Graves had this self-detonation, and Zyra looks really weird...

Otherwise I enjoyed it a lot. My bro said I play too much just because I immediately recognized each and every champ just based off of their skills coming from off-screen. :P

There you go.

I thought the cinematic was pretty enjoyable. To be honest I liked the blood-less battles more for some reason. Previous cinematics had a lot of combat but showed few actual direct hits. I guess it just feels weird seeing characters getting taken out in one hit or bleeding when you don't see the same thing in game.

Things I liked:
  • The combat felt real; characters got bloody and injured. Really neat.
  • Darius was a ****ing badass in this one; like damn. This is who his character is.
  • Graves was well-played out too; like he looked like a smart*** and a badass without saying a word.
  • Ahri made for a fun character to follow.
  • It was a clear 5v5 fight, no showoff of how many characters League has. Also the characters chosen felt quite random; not very "This is League", except maybe for Draven.
  • Additionally, the teams were made up in such a way that every role was covered by an appropriate champion.
  • Draven was in it.


Things I disliked (a lot):
  • We went from a chase to another chase; that felt kind of unimaginative.
  • Draven didn't really do much. We didn't get to see bouncing axes, nor his "Draaaven". I was hoping for at least the former. His intro was really good though.
  • Ahri didn't really do anything, except at the last part; kinda meh.
  • No matter how well you render it; Zyra still looks ridiculous.
  • Jax, Rengar, Zyra, and Katarina after the chase sequence were pointless fillers. Was lame.
  • The combat in the cinematic is how I feel the next-gen MOBAs should be; LoL isn't that, and that made me kind of sad.
  • Overall it's kind of sad that the entire cinematic is over six minutes long but the past part is essentially before 1:22.


All in all, good cinematic. Again, Darius is ****ing badass!

They also made the Marksman ( Draven) greedy! Zyra clearly had Ahri under wraps, and Draven was all like "Thanks for the snare ward-wench, I'll take that."

Honestly makes you wonder though. They tend to group champions that wouldnt be opposed to eachother on the same team in these scenes. What if Draven and Darius were on Opposite teams. What if Jarvan and Swain had to be on the same team? What would that be like? :p
