It's grown on me, but as a hype song it's terrible compared to Worlds Collide and Warriors.


I agree, the song also really had to grown on me. In the beginning I was constantly expecting the song to develop some kind of a drop whereas they repeatedly went back to the verse-part.

I think hype is something that is also generated during the tournament itself. I remember Worlds Collide and Warriors and thinking "well this is good music, but nothing out of the ordinary". That changed over the course of the tournament and the way Riot implemented the songs into their shows.

A more technical analysis (albeit personal/IMO) of this song is that this song really builds up to the final chorus and bridge. Especially the section after like 1:35 I think accomplishes that very well by repeatedly adding instruments after each of these loud 'breaks'; if you listen closely you'll notice they add some orchestral pieces that - although they are on the background - remind me a little of Worlds Collide. If you ask me that creates hype, but in a more unique way.

It may sound weird but I think last year theme song "Worlds Collide" actually seems to be a better fit to this season Worlds.
