I love that Bel'Veth is proof that the Void's purpose has backfired. The Watchers made it adapt to anything so nothing reality throws at it can stop it. Yet that adaptation has caused the Void to want to exist. Now it wants to become as much like life as possible. The Watchers have essentially doubled their problems now.
Pls i want to know one thing.
I don't know alot about the void or the watchers, what i know is that they are enemies, how ever the void wants to end the world so they can be a world, then why don't they just, do it, like right away vel alon was this strong But there is more maybe not as strong But so strong like vel'koz or even stronger so ending the world should be an easy thing
@@thedarkebika9488 they cant physically manifest in the physical realm the runeterra thats why they created vel koz to do the job for them. from what i know idk if im 100% right
@@thedarkebika9488 I think even if belveth could start a war against the world right now, she would not for some factors: 1) she doesn't have the power to challenge every single creature of Runeterra yet, otherwise she wouldn't need Kai'Sa's help. 2) The watchers don't have a clue about what's happening with the void, and that means Bel'Veth still wants to stay in the shadows because she can't afford a battle on two fronts of this caliber. 3) Just because she flexed on Kai'Sa doesn't mean she would stomp anyone... I wonder how it'd go against Aurelion Sol 🤣
@@thedarkebika9488 The Void wasn't able to destroy the world because it was stopped every time. First rift were closed by Aurelion Sol. The big rift in the Frelyord is frozen by Lissandra, the rift in the Western Ocean is held back by Nami's people, the most problematic rift is Ichatia i think its slowly spreads the void. The Watchers themselves are only able to arrive into the howling abyss i think so that is why they didn't pop out anywhere else.
@@Bayoire they did manifest themselves. Only with a little help but they can. but we're instantly betrayed by lissandra. Many got captured in true ice. So the remaining Watchers do not make the mistake again and let voidborn do the job.
The watchers are strong. They can obliterated anything to nothing. It's shown in LoR where they capable of making a auto win if they attack. If they ever come to the physical realm, I think nobody would be able to stop them. I believe even bel, veth can do in her current state nothing against them.
Bel'veth is basically "The enemy of my enemy is my friend", and I love it.
No, she isn't. She will only give assistance to defeat the Watchers, she will then consume everything in reality. She only serves her own intentions, no one else's.
@@tamas9554 that's literally what that phrase means
@@jacjac7154 not entirely, it doesn’t mean we fight afterwards it means we both don’t like this, so we deal with it together and then we ignore each other. This is more a truce at best and submission at worst
@@jacjac7154 The phrase means that if you are in conflict with somebody, then somebody who is also in conflict with your enemy is your ally. Bel'veth is an enemy of reality herself, she would only destroy the Watchers because they threathen her and her food (reality). She is not the ally of anyone besides herself
@@_chishika_ in every place I've seen that phrase used, a bad guy and a good guy team up, take out another stronger bad guy, and than go back to fighting
Reality: "Wait, I am the bad guy?
The Watchers: "Always has been."
More like: never has been or will be
I'm sorry for existing :(
I just love the watchers :) I think they are quite relatable.
@@jakobmoiirers_jmoii yeah they're like someone who has loud neighbors during the night
i love how riot made so no region is good nay evil, it's always based on your perception of good and evil
Other voidborn often acts similar to the creature they're based on. Cho'gath and Rek'sai acts like an apex predator driven by the desire to consume. While Vel'koz wants to destroy reality much like the watchers themselves. But Bel'veth, created by consuming an entire city, acts like a society. it wants to live and thrive.
Omg.. that makes sense, she wants to grow and spread like society of hive mind.
I like that the reason for Bel'Veth to have a head is less to be attractive (which will always be part of the reason) but is instead to make her approachable. As Kai'sa said, she liked it better when she had the human head. This allows ger to not only be a leader in battle, but also a leader in negotiations. Bel'Veth being a leader and taking a humanoid form is changing the Void from a faceless species of destruction to an actual faction.
Besides, I think Bel'Veth does head can be just part of her imitation and evolution. She does consume emotions and that a potentially gave her enough self awareness and some "humanity".
@@mikhaelgribkov4117 but nothing perfect hence the uncanny lip movement and body movements when walking
@@mikhaelgribkov4117 belveth does head? 😳😳😳
Agreed, I will never forgive the legs however
@@destiny4534 aw hell nah
Are they saying that Bel'Veth has thousands of years of collective life experience?
Yup
Yes. She is a newborn with the mind of thousand years old minds
200 😆
yep, slap!
But does she have that experience,you know the kind of "Experience"?👀
Don't forget fiddlesticks, the first scream of creation. He was the Fear the void felt when reality was thrust upon them.
Fiddle - tells everyones nightmares
Fiddle to bel'veth: how's your mirror empress, still in 1 piece after you touched reality?
@@aauserre9875 Oh my GOD That's Savage.
Somehow I imagine Fiddlesticks vs Bel Veth battle be like that of the final fight in the first Ghost Rider movie.
The Void did not feel fear when they first erupted into this Universe, they were more "annoyed" than afraid, annoyed that there are alien forces outside of their dimension.
@@VelkanG It literally says they were in pain. Most forms of pain cause a fear response. If someone sprays you in the eyes with pepper spray when you don't expect it. No ones response is, wow annoying. Its confusion, pain and fear. Specifically the void did not scream in joy maybe in rage but even rage is rooted in fear. In fact the lore specifically states that the watchers were; spiteful. The creation of everything brought them pain and they drew spite from this.
If you break it down slowly ask your self the questions you will understand. Why do they hate reality? Because before they knew or wanted of nothing and now creation has warped what they were. No ultimate antagonist of the story will be driven by mere annoyance, it makes viego seem justified in comparison. The void hates us. Because we took away what it had, and what it had was certainty in nothing. Uncertainty breeds resentment and resentment breeds fear.
So bel veth turn out to be somewhat a positive figure, interestingly she might have been affected by human affection and wisdom as she consumed the city, and become the genesis of void revolution. The concepts behind these stories are just brilliant
I wonder what happens to a person who just... sides with Bel'Veth. Accepts that she's the future. Does she kill them? Absorb them? Or do they get to live out their days in the Lavender Sea? If she does kill them or absorb them, what's really left of the person we were within Bel'Veth?
@@GinoSoldier that’s what we all wonder, thing is, she’s actually giving a chance as the void powers sealed in freliord about to erupt.and the phenomenon she realized is other watchers tend to go extreme, or more vicious with reality. So if the end is certain, a chance does worth more than none
Well….technically she wants to consume all of reality to make her own reality sooo….sure
@@ramxehs1180 to be fair, that still sounds way better than reducing reality to nothingness.
I am getting Halo flood vives from vel'beth and i am loving it. Like she is a literall gravemind and those beings are extremely scary in the Halo universe, i mean they are the only reason of why the Halos were built in the first place, a suicidal galaxy wide bomb. So it is exiting to think what is runeterra gonna do to deal with a threat of that scale
It's be really cool if they went the doomslayer route with Kassadin.
I think that's probably already the case.
It would be cool if he popped outta nowhere and takes Grave's shotgun
*In the first age... In the first battle... When the shadows first lenghtened... One stood.*
Void: A young man you will never find your beloved daughter.
Doom slayer them- i mean
*KASSADIN THEME KICKS IN*
His new Splash Art confirms that a bit. He looks completely insane compared to his original artwork, almost like he's one with his armor.
"Perhaps, in time, they wouldfind a weapon to slay her. Or a hero to face her."
Jax: "Who wants a piece of the champ?"
Jax couldn't even kill Rek'sai or Cho'gath, and they are far weaker than Bel'veth. I'd doupt if he would be able to kill even Kha'zix or Kog'maw
@@tamas9554 reksai and belveth are equal in strength I'd say
Insert jaxes copypasta
@@tamas9554 just give him a real weapon
@@tamas9554 Reminder that Jax have soloed a fucking Darken even before being affected by the void, and the void might even make his body stronger (shown in his infinity age)
Ngl, the way Riot wrote her bio is super cool. I think we haven't had a bio like hers before?
It's rare. For example Vel'Koz explained the Watchers in a similar way and Mordekaiser explained early Valoran.
I absolutely LOVE that Bel'Veth is so unquestionable, so unavoidable that the offer of her choice is terrifying. "Your people will be given a chance, a chance that means nothing, but its more than the watchers would give" what a great way to make a partnership with the villain
Bel'Veth is already so much more interesting than Viego was. It would appear that Riot learned from their mistakes and they actually gave us a villain who is not only threatening, but also complex.
I mean, I’d consider Viego fairly complex, they’re both good villains, in fact, what butchered the Ruination was the way they dealed with the villain. Viego himself it’s pretty solid in concept
They could have done so much more with Viego but they deciced that the champs in Ruination would be anime girls to sell skins instead of going for a proper story.
100% not a Yorick main triggered by what happen in the Ruination /The Ruined King Game. :)
@@marcobento7952 I mostly agree abt the new champs, but Viego himself I think is the exception, he’s pretty great, and mirrors Lucian’s story pretty well. He’s a very well though out villain, they just didn’t know what to do with him afterwards. And obv league players complain abt literally anything, like, nothing will ever be good enough, but I agree that there were so many champs that would’ve been great to see interacting with Viego, and they just…didn’t do it
I really wish this is a "ruination but we read our lore and got our shit together" type of event cos, it's the third most world threatening event i could think of, only beaten by the return of mordekaiser and the void finally doing shit
@@kielpogi8062 I mean, they already connected "Kaisa, Kassadin, Vel'koz, Malzahar and Bel'Veth" in the story of the Event. I think this time it works
Watchers: create void to erase reality
Void: becomes reality
Sad watchers sounds
"Perhaps you can find a weapon or a warrior. You will not"
Ornn: And I took that personally.
then again, remember bel'veth's knowledge, as vast as it is, it is still limited. she does not know what kind of weapon ornn might have created.
A weapon for a fight
- Ornn ✅
A warrior to fight against a deity like creature
- Atreus ✅
It would also be a good way to add more flavor to Atreus's development, learning that there are also actual good/neutral deity like living beings and not just assholes
Theres also jax, give him a real weapon
@@eraea9179 and in the end if all else fails, targon literally controls aurelion sol.
imagine bel'veth trying to predict what rammus was thinking
Ok
Ok
Ok
Alright
Yeah
Kassadin is so cool and yet he has so little lore, I can't wait for him to get more story.
Ikr, before Kaisa was released Kassadin was THE good Void champion, so much potential wasted and went to the "anime void champion".
Don't get me wrong, I was excited when they hinted that Kaisa was Kassadins daughter and we could have gotten a Father-Daugther team up fighting the Void but sadly we didn't.
Don't get too excited. He's likely at best, gonna get the Yorick treatment.
@@XolBurn To be fair its still hurts to see Kaisa be a main character here with her design of a fck top model with some heavy mascara
@@Gershelf damn, don't remind me to that poor guy. Ruination was... dissapointing:(
@@Gershelf yeah that's something I dread. Seeing how he was non existed in the Ruination Event, they will most likely shove him aside for Kaisa or possibly Taliyah
Necrit points out the use of sound is hinting at Bard, but we all know it’ll be Seraphine
I am only partially thru the video, so I don't know if he mentioned it, but on the universe page, there is a short story about Bard, where he and his chimes (given human forms) and searching for some mcguffin to deal with the Void. Something about a giant bell.
I would laugh hard if Riot will take to the next point and just kill Seraphine in the next event.
@@freljodiandao882 They were joking, just in case you didn't know XD
Cannot blame watchers for wish to destroy a world, in which Seraphine exist
Imagine tho BV comes to piltover, as she arrives seraphine hears literally millions of souls screaming (or humming?) Has a breakdown, a telepathic conversation with bel'veth, runs to zaun, tries to warn everyone, is ignored, then left to try and defend shit with the geniuses of zaun (remember there's a whole ass kid that can travel through time just vibin down there that could R E A L L Y help)
With this story I feel like Bel’Veth’s design makes a hell of a lot more sense. she’s not a predator hunting people, luring them in with her false appearance before striking. She’s a THING playing at being human. Taking a human shape not out of necessity or cruel efficiency. But out of a desire to emulate. Even if it’s uncanny, strange and incomplete. She’s not just alive. She’s sentient. And that’s freaking horrifying.
just a clarification since this is a huge misconception, the birth of runeterra is what cause the the watchers to woke up not the celestial realm.The celestial realm and the void once existed in a state of balance for countless eons but when runeterra was created by the world runes, its existence perturbed the balance of the universe. Warping both the celestial realm and the void.Thats why it mentions in bards bio that runeterra is producing a dissonant song that is disrupting the natural cosmic order of all things. And in vel'koz and bel'veths bio it mentions that the void was corrupted into ''something'' and that something is the watchers.The watchers are those pieces of the nothing that is forced to "exist".Anti-Gods of oblivion yearning to destroy everything so that they are no longer " something " and restore the voids original purity.And to do that of course they want to destroy runettera since its what cause the unbalance in the first place, and perhaps the celestial realm after that.But their repeated attempts to twist the world against itself took a toll on the Void, and a pattern slowly began to emerge as more and more knowledge and power was absorbed, that pattern is now embodied in Bel'Veth, "the new Void", that is the opposite of the Watchers. The Watchers want to be nothing. Bel'Veth wants to be everything.
Honestly I just don't get it. if watchers and belveth are all voidborns aren't they all the same? Like some puppets of the void itself
@@nagasolaire8462 i think of the void not as an entity, it just a lump of nothingness and produce belveth and watcher, for example, you have water, but it got corrupted (by reality) (boiled) and became hot water (Watcher), but if a water (void) started getting frozen (like for example winter came) then it would became Cold water (Bel veth)
@@nagasolaire8462 the watchers are not voidborns, voidborns are physical constructs created by the watchers after lissandras betrayal, specifically designed to adapt,learn, and devour the world, they're merely the form of a crude matter that comprised it, imbued with consciousness. The watchers on the other hand are not physical entities, voidborns are exclusive to runeterra even bel'veth hast been in the void.The watchers are the only entities that are able to exist within the void since they're the like will of the void given consciousness. Also jared rosen the writer for bel'veths lore confirmed on twitter that she is indeed a voidborn, but a voidborn unlike any other since shes basically the result of thousands of years of pattern and knowledge of the watchers tampering with the material realm gradually twisting the voids own image, and that led to bel'veth's birth.What makes her unique from other voidborns though is that she has her own purpose, and is the opposite to the goal of the watchers.
I really can't wait until they adapt this into the mmo and make us fight a Bel'Veth that consumed half of Shurima.
Y shurima gods lose to this
@@cupidok2768 they didnt void consumed parts of shurima which was already close to icathia where the void was released by the icathians, the god warriors ultimately won and shut the rifts.
Ye this gives me very MMO lore vibes rather than just another League Event, like so much so that it reminds me heavily of how Sargeras story was an overarcing story throughout early wow, always being in the background somehow/someway.. Which leads me to believe Bel'veth/The Watchers will be the same, with Kai'sa being a major character we interact with for this story arc.
like league of legends campaign mode? that would be interesting lol😂😂
@@bajabajakering9951 no. Like world of Warcraft but leagues story/world ;)
I can't wait to see a cinematic with Vel'koz vs Bel'veth because both of them seem to have lots of power
Will Vel'koz wonder how she came to be? His purpose is to understand reality for the watchers so they can destroy it. How will he react to something that should be his allie?
Does chogath finally got his own part in here🙂
@Lillia Not terrified just curious and a little worried probably
Vel'koz is really no way that strong he is just a pawn for the watcher to get information not more but the encounter would be interesting but 100% fatal for Vel'koz.
My boi Vel Koz sadly seems to be an "underling" for the Void, but i certainly see him taking a more proactive role in this story since he has a bit more intelligence and foresight than the others. Perhaps a void monster revolution?
@@artinsaphire3081 I thought he was terrified of her in the trailer?
Damn they shouldve animated the whole story because that was wild..
I agree! The cinematic was great but felt a little short tbh
If kai'sa wasn't corrupted here, My guess is that She in the end will acept bel'veth's offer, and Bel'Veth will Upgrade her Symbionte
I still think that this "corruption" was only a tease for Kai'sa's direct interaction with Bel'veth- I mean that it probably wouldn't look that way if she actually got corrupted. Besides, from this story we learned that the suit has "feelings", which might mean it's actually fond of her. It didn't betray her when in front of Bel'veth, so I doubt it will in the future.
@@nickdagr8wiz yeah, Kai'sa's suit is also an example of the void evolving into something meaningfull not a mindless consuming thing, and Even though Bel'veth is definetively a Global Threat, she is not an Inmediate one and she can be kinda reason with, she also Kinda has some motherly Vibes in the story
ornn upgrading her suit
We keep saying Kai'Sa got corrupted with that splash art, but none of us have any idea what we are talking about whatsoever. Her suit in the splash changed/evolved and the implication is because of Bel'Veth. I don't think "corrupted" is the right word at all here, especially when you consider the theory that one of the reasons Kai survived the void is due to Bel'Veth so the suit-voidborn might be related to Bel somehow.
From what we know, Bel isn't going to "mind control" Kai or else she would have in Pinwheel. (I also don't think she even does mind control.) It could literally have been just an artistic tease for Bel'Veth, or Bel does upgrade her symbiote.
I like how they made the human appearance of belveth matter in the story. It really feels like this was in the works ever since the first few void champions were released.
I mean almost every modern void champion has some human aspect about them that goes against what the void represents. Kha zix just wants to be the best predator. That is a personal goal that shows an individuality that goes against the mindless, collective destruction of reality that most void creature have. If given the chance kha zix would rebel against the watchers if they threatened his progress to perfect evolution by destroying everything.
Velkoz is obsessed with collecting, cataloguing data about the world and it’s inhabitance even to the point that he would destroy fellow void entities that threaten the knowledge he seeks. I believe there is a small part of velkoz that would rebel against the watchers that he profess to serve if they came to destroy the world too early, before he felt he had collected enough information.
Reksai is the biggest one for this theory as she represents the void spawn that has one of the most human aspects within her very being. She has a brood, a family and she serves as their mother and protects them all. This completely goes against the principles of the void. They don’t have freinds much less the capacity to care but reksai and the variety of xer’sai that she cares for have built a community with its own territory that she enforce with each xer’sai serving a specific role in the community. This is complex social behavior goes above even most irl animals.
I don’t know if riot planned for this but this makes belveth human visage makes complete sense as she is the most human void born desiring not just to rule the world but one of the human trait , the desire to create. That goes completely against the desire to erase that is pinnacle to the void desire.
If she’s going after all the watchers I hope we get to see Lissandra in the event. And if we do I think she’d side with bel veth simply because she has already given up. She is holding the watchers back, but believes that they’re going to destroy everything anyways.
Lissandra is pretty much confirmed to be part of this because bel-veth has an interaction with her in game and lissandra’s involvement is mentioned in bel-veth’s bio and story
Y is liss and watcher and bel
I just love her dynamic with Kai'Sa in the short story

Honestly never stop making content Necrit. I love listening to your videos while I work and have learned so much about league. The game might suck sometimes but the lore is amazing
Bel'Veth: Bring a champion who can defeat me.
Kai'Sa: *Brings Aurelion Sol*
Bel'Veth: Wait, that's illegal!
Theres a reason why Pan is flying up to Mt. Targon in The Call. I believe that he had heard of the destruction of Belveth and the spreading of the Void, and therefore he would strike a deal with the Space Sass
2:08 ''and before there was nothing, there were monsters''
it fits so well
God I love these videos you cleanly explain the lore to me when I. didnt understand it after reading it thank you and keep it up!
Bel'veth: Maybe in time u can find a warrior to face me
Malphite, The darkin, Jax, the shuriman ascended, the targon ascended, the celestial champs and AURELION SOL: hold my beer
Like maybe I'm underestimating bel'veth abit but I feel like the second kai'sa stumbles into like 3 of the groups/ champs mentioned above bel'veth's not ganna seem so tough anymore
Like it wouldn't really even be that hard really Malphite would probably just show up eventually n u can just go meet up with azir who can probably help u get Nasus involved
Or Kai'sa can just go to zillean n he can just help her Dr strange everyone together
As if they aren't gonna wipe the floor with her after defeating the Watchers. It's not gonna be "one" warrior.

@@aauserre9875 I doubt kindred would be here a help. She is a spirit who only shows Her self to the dying to seal their fate. For wolf and lamp it's only a game they do.
Atreus would have a field day with Bel'Veth lol
What I'm getting from this is that bel'beth isn't a villain per say. She's more like an anti-villain with her own goals and motivations asside of the watchers. I guess the only thing capable of destroying the void, is the void
she is the "lesser evil". But evil is evil, don't matter the size.

Kai'sa's and Bel'veth's (god that's a lot of apostrophes) confrontation reminds me of Muzan and the lower moon demons. Kai'sa wanted to run, one of the demons run away and got decapitated (which perhaps may had happen to Kai'sa if she really chose to run). They both have the same sense of superiority around them, looking down on lesser beings, watching, observing. The only difference is that Bel'veth is more... benevolent.

Kind of late, but I just noticed that in Kai'sa's splash art, there is a void ray fish thing that Bel'Veth summons as minions. The butterfly that was on the boat in the cinematic is also in her splash art, so I think her splash art is a post-Bel'Veth encounter, possibly hinting at her journey to find the watchers.

Bel'veth talks about kai'sa finding a weapon that could kill her, what if Ornn is the one who will make said weapon?
He already made a entire bridge that could trap the Watchers, who are more powerful than Bel'veth, he could forge sometinhg to at least trap her too.
While Ornn did craft the bridge, the metal that was used was given to him by Lissandra and her sisters, and all of it was used to make the bridge, with whatever is left being used to make Ornn's favourite hammer.
First, Ornn did make the bridge for trapping the Watchers, but the Watchers didn't get trapped because of him. Not to mention that this story is only a fairy tale inside the Freljord, so its not guaranteed that its even true. Second, we don't know if Ornn knows anything about the lands besides Freljord at all, especially not Shurima, which is at the other side of the world. He wouldn't even know that Bel'veth exists
Did Ornn build the bridge on the howling abyss?
@@Night-Shade. it is said in "The lost tales of Ornn" story, but that is just a fairytale inside the universe
@@tamas9554 The tale is definitely true, but Ornn himself wouldn't know how to deal with the Watchers. It's Lissandra's ice prison containing them, ultimately.

Hey Necrit, could you imagine making a huge episode as a special? (e.g. for 1 Million Subscribers) Where you try to tell most of the lore we know until now, like you did a while ago, but an updated version
Im pretty sure the event is going to happen in riot's mmo. Imaging the "Reality vs. Void" worlds war for the sake of existence, its just too EPIC to be a seasonal grind in league of legends. It MUST be some kind of a first-player "you are the hero and YOU are saving the world" experience.
Yep, feels very much like the vastness of Sargeras + The Burning Legion. had from WC3>WoW
Awesome video, I can really aprecciate the effort
Such an amazing story and concept! It's very creative and logically built! Gj riot
Imagine if they would make a new arcane season about the void
i would love that
I’m pretty sure they stated at one point that arcane would be more like a show called american horror story if you know what I’m talking about in the sense that they will tell stories from the same overarching universe (in this case the league universe) but every season they will swap from say the stories of characters like vi and jinx in piltover and zaun of S1 to say Ionia, and explore the characters like Irelia, Demacia with Garen, Lux, Vayne, or even the fight against the void like you said with the void characters
@@Nova-iq2ox No. Arcane is a show focusing specifically on Zaun/Piltover. They've said there's the possibility of other LoL universe shows though.
@@retrauk eww. Let's hope they do the former. We don't need to be hit over the head with Piltover and Zaun all the time.
Probably the reason for the splash art is related to reworking Kai'sa since the void evolves and changes so does her parasitic armour
amazing videos bro. very nice
especially while high
I find it kinda stupid that they named a city after a god of oblivion, its just kinda too perfect to me lol. I could've done without that.
Think of it like making an ofering to her for not to destroy them
@@kostakonomi when she didn’t exist?
@@letendreelliott8778 I think they mean 'him'.
@@letendreelliott8778 They weren't naming the city after the void empress Bel'Veth. They named it after their own mythological legends of a God of Oblivion. Bel'Veth just adopted and chose that name herself.
It's not really stupid either. I mean, I get what OP is saying but... you can't put your own understanding of how you "think" a civilization might think or work on other civilizations. Itmakes sense that ancient Shurimans might have named a city like that.
@@shxynee I mean, I guess depending on how the god is seen. You can argue that they maybe named the city like that as a tribute to the god, but we know nothing about this mythology.
But I also find it stupid that the city Bel'Veth happened to consume was that exact city. I know it's fictional work but I find huge coincidences like this stupid.
The Sound is Seraphine.
It is going to break the silence of the Void & all of existence including the Watchers.
Seraphine will be the only one remaining in the end.
the true bad ending
The true evil
Necrit talking about how powerful and scary she is and then showing a picture of her is so funny to me.
Sadly her model doesn't look scary at all while in the cinematic she looked hella scary...
Bel'Veth is fascinating in that its the void that gives you a chance. Versus the outright annihilation of the watchers. Its a choice that you hate but... If you have to choose. Bel'veth is the one that gives a glimmer of hope.
Nice video as always.
So kai sa has two options. Help belveth kill the watchers and maybe buy time for her or someone else to gain the strength to kill belveth (cost of this being helping belveths plans) or attempt to fight both knowing that as of now no one can defeat belveth, (save for maybe bard and aurelion but i doubt she even knows much about them let alone cross her mind)
This sounds like totally Tomernta RPG (Brazillian RPG system).
It is exactly the same principle: There's another dimension that wants to invade your world in search of something. In Tormenta's case, the invaders wants to become God, bc in their reality they already consumed everything and became one, even time they've consumed, but they couldn't become gods. In Runeterra, Void wants to invade to simply consume and exist.
And it's fun to see that the area that became the Lavender Sea is Void/Bel'Veth, meaning that area is one merged with its surroundings. In Tomenta happens the same: The area that gets corrupted becomes one with the Tormenta. Areas consumed in both scenarios are just one entity.
Really like the way the lore is going so far, bring me back memories
this video throws me back to 2018 man... the nostalgia is real...
Every lore video, every cinematic, every song and every update brings me back to installing league again, and after 2 matches of absolute sadness I immediately regret that decision. It's actually like riot was testing bots in matchmade games rn..
I love that like the void is infecting the reality, the reality is infecting the void in the same way, and the void borns are the creation of the entropy process as the two mixes. Much like life and diversity in the creation is cause by flow of entropy from perfect uniform order to perfect uniform chaos.
I think that the summer event is a void event, but in freiljord, basically Kai'sa going there, meeting Sej, Ornn (maybe new udyr) Lissandra to finally stop the watchers and getting ready for Vel'Veth
And somewhere in the event, ms. technically nude have a(n) clash/alliance with daddy voiddy vader. Really looking forward to that
no
Imagine the event ended with Jax getting the weapon from Ornn, and the new threat of Runeterra awakens
@@kujojotarostandoceanman2641 mordekaiser's return perhaps (my theory for thresh going to noxus)
im just here cus i genuinely enjoy all of necrits videos, voice and him as a person.
"Fast and big is something she's not used to."
I really wanna know how a fight would look like between Mordekaiser and Bel'Veth.
Interestingly Belveth could be Aatrox Mordekaiser true enemy, like Aatrox want to annihilate everything and Mordekaiser want to conquer everything for himself, New nemesis
I think belveth would literally erase them
@@berkemelihmalkoc2689 okay so first
No
There's no way she could do that
And second
Mordekaiser and Aatrox are one of the most powerful characters in runeterra you really don't value as much xd
@@berkemelihmalkoc2689 I mean there's a bit of a problem like void seems to be physical but there's spiritual realms and shit in reality so how does that work if morde can't die and aatrox can't either
@@Significantharrassment ok maybe I as a bit too jumpy on mord fair yes but you cannot tell me aatrox wouldnt get clapped by belveth
Also the voids pupose is to erase things while belveth might not want to Show most def could
@@berkemelihmalkoc2689 you can't really tell that, remember Aatrox can kill anything, this plus the fact that he is a very ancient warrior, he isn't your regular anime sword user, he does have experience and skill, plus the fact that he can't die, image if Aatrox manages to STABE her she can't possibly survive that
The Void: You are what you eat! You become what you consume!
Bel'veth: Literally?
The Void: Literally.
My knowledge on league lore is limited to Renekton and Nasus are brothers and that Illaoi likes mangos, but looking at Bel'Veths attack speed we can easily deduce that she's a massage therapist. Ez
but nobody ask "how is bel'veth"
I’ll do you one better. WHY is Bel’Veth??
I have a theory, that might sound streach. What if the cinematic with Kaisa and Belveth happent in the past, so the corruption in her art is when Kaisa go to North in order to fight the wathers. Im not 100% sure on the map places but lets say what if Pantheon end up in Feylord after his fight with Leona? As Kaisa and Pantheon fight the watchers, pantheon find out his weapons are not effective, this is where Orn comes as he craft a weapon for pantheon in order to fight the watchers. Pantheon then with his new power face with Belveth and the fight ends like last season with Viego, bad guy lose, the exile hero get his redemtion and life continues to runetera.
Pantheon and Leona fought on Targon in the cinematic, and after that Pantheon flied to space, not to Freljord. The Watchers are also so strong, that even Aurelion would be killed off by them, so Pantheon would stand no chance against them. Also, Kai'sa's story couldn't happen in the past, because she met Taliyah recenty, and there she wasn't corrupted.
I half expected Kassadin to warp in at the last minute, and warp kai'sa out of there, or at least attempt to do so...given that she was the only reason he is still roaming the void....not knowing his doughter can by will just get out of the void when she finds a tunnel.
The way the void becomes corrupted with each thing they eat may be hinting that cho'gath rework would allow him steal part of the enemy when he ults or his abilities mutates depending on what he eats.
So weird question. Wasn't Kassadin already crazy? Like his want to save Kai'sa turning to revenge and then an obsession y'know, like the Doom Slayer?
I would love to see an animation where he slays void creatures like Doom Slayer.
I don't see why the Void event wouldn't happen after her release. Pretty sure we'd still get the event quite soon
Because we have very trustable info on that this summer's event will be star guardian
i love her story it has so many possible outcomes its so good till now
I just hope some champs are also dragged into the upcoming event. (Icathian, Targon, Darkin).
(A hopeful Aatrox fanatic)
Do you think that perhaps they're leading up to a Shadow isles vs The void event somewhere down the line? I was Wracking up my brains as to who in lore would have an advantage over Bel, and my mind came to Thresh, being she's made up of So much knowledge and experience it seems to me she's a massive collection of possible souls, perhaps the magic of the shadow isles could disrupt her quite effectively. After all the void wants to unmake everything, but the shadow isles have seen death and erasure and still persisted. Perhaps only they who have defied non existence once, have the power to combat that which specialises in erasing.
I'm imagining a scenario: Bel'Veth pretty much consumes and integrates souls. Thing is, these souls should go somewhere else once the body is killed, the Death Realm. And I personally think that its self-appointed Kaiser will not take kindly to stealing what he believes belongs to him.
my biggest question is how do primordial entities like fiddle or A Sol interact with Bel'Veth
Like could fiddle embody Bel'Veth's fear?
or would he embody the fear of those she consumed?
imagine if they soon planted an easter egg that you can find when fighting Bel'Veth as Fiddlesticks. This new voiceline could say some cryptic shit like
"nothing can outrun it's shadow"
or
"greed lessens what is gathered"
or
"oblivion. a god to oblivion. ȯ̬̦̪͚̤͕͕͂̕b͕̥͙̖̯̿̕l̨͕̩ͣͣ͗̒i̜̝͓̝͙̋͝v͖͉̖̱̘̼̦̖̈̆̕ỉ̖̫̜̱̝̩͠ǫ̯̘̼̽̅̾ͅư̪͕͎̬̜ͦ͗͋̌ͅs̷̥̼̾̂͆ "
Now that I think about it, this is looking a lot like the Flood from Halo, with all the consciousness and memories together.
The void champs are my favorites. So glad for more lore
I feel like riot adding a champion to encompass the event is just putting the story in an awkward spot. There's really not a great way forward where everyone lives, and riot isn't huge about killing off champs because it ends their story. Even viego is just sealed off and he's probably the most removed from the story they've ever made a champion. So either a lot of champs get corrupted by the void and we sit on that because we can't have them win or lose, Bel'veth decides she doesn't want to eat everything, Bel'veth only kills the watchers and basically just replaces them, or Bel'veth is wholly unsuccessful and is an overhyped cartoon villian screaming she'll win next time. Personally the kills the watchers and replaces them is my favorite as it opens runeterra to have more prophets like malzahar and can sustain their status quo while still moving the story forward, but its not really a solution. Thats just how i feel about bel veth though.
Any BBEG that's a world ending threat has to be sealed away in some form if they're a champion. mordekaizer, viego, & aurelion sol, for example.
My guess is that she will end up replacing the watchers/ruination as the impending apocalypse. It's possible she might even be a minor ally during certain events, since she's shown not to be in a rush to consume everything and isn't opposed to working with humans if it benefits her goals. Totally possible everyone leaves the sleeping bear alone while preparing counter measures until it wakes up and to expand its domain.
@@michaelkennell2420 and who knows when this would happen? Maybe it will take a milenia when she wants to. I think she waits only because she can consume more and better information. Like cheese ore wine (god a bad comparison) the longer to simmer (is that the right word) the better it gets
@@sebastiandodenhof1820 for sure, she basically says "I'll get around to it eventually(tm)" lol. I'm sure there will be more pressing threats and she'll just be chilling in the background similar to Zyra.
The biggest problem with League's story, is that its just a product, not a work of art that they first wanted it to be. The story and popular characters could never meet the end, because thats not how business works. They will keep adding new champions to the lore, but because they will have too many, they won't be able to give enough attention to most of them. LoL's story will eventually end up as WoW's, repeating and haulted, never ending. I can't see any reason for this not happening, even if I hope it didn't
@@tamas9554 that's true, people seem to forget this is pure marketing. As nice as it is and as artistic as it can get it's still marketing to buy things and engage with a product. Things are added to captivate our attention and draw us to the game, their product. The plot consequences of adding characters are not really a problem since they achieve their primary function.
I hope we get a lore event, I got really hyped up for a lore event this summer. Come on riot you can't make it all about egirls on the beach. This looks very cool lorewise but i'm a bit bummed they didn't talk about zilean and jax. And I know the next rework is udyr and skarner but I feel like a zilean and cho'gath rework, at least a VGU would make this event even better. If they're really postponing it, i hope they update those two and give cho some lore and polygons.
Void Event could possibly be a year from now, if not longer. They'll continue building slow hype for it though, like they have been. It might even be that the Void event we are thinking of will be with the release of the MMO; makes total sense that the big bad in the MMO is going to be the Void.
As for the next event, it's going to be the Star Guardian one. Won't hear that from Necrit though until Riot announces it officially because apparently leaks are bad.
Ocean Song isn't an event, it's a skinline
i love the void. super excited being a malz main
I think there will be a void event, except this time it will be Watchers vs Champs (probably mostly involving the frelijord), and next time it will be kai'sa+zilean+everyone else vs Bel'veth
Kai'sa: HOW CAN WE EVEN FIGHT HER, SHE IS AN ENTIRE CITY!
Jax: Wanna see me destroy a entire city?
Necrit, someone asked me who's gonna win.
Void or the Mist.
Void no contest
it's like asking who would win between old gods and the lich king
@@dimasbram7176 Indeed, my answer is like "Yeah the mist can take over your mind but the void can corrupt your body and soul."
But the guy kept asking so this exists.
The Void can destroy anything it touches, even souls, so that would definetly win over the black mist. The black mist wouldn't really be dangerous to something like the old Shuriman empire, because they knew much about the rules of their universe. But because the current civilisations in Runeterra are not very advanced, the mist poses a great threat to them.
@@tamas9554 I don't think it was ever established it can destroy souls or even touch anything in that sort of magical/spiritual side of things
Since this is 100% turning into a sentinels of light sorta deal, if there's a group of people I could think of that stand a chance it'd be Swain, Lux, The acended, a stretch but Thresh, also a stretch but Le-blanc, Ryze, and Aurelion sol
I hear what you mean. however the only people to ever fight the void is the Acended/ Darkin and Aurelion sol successfully - the powers to rival have to above/ equal to planetary which lux and leblanc dont have
@@zanepip7222 fair enough but I still think Swain could fight the Void, because the power of a demon has to at least rival that of an acended, if not surpass it
@@DefinitelyFroggyDioBrando Raum hasn’t been confirmed to be one of the 10 primordial demons so he could be as powerful as fiddlesticks but also could be a demon who is at the level of eve and tham. So should be interesting with more lore
Bold to assume that reality (or, in that case, Runetera's reality) is different that the "uncanny" world of bel'veth. Reality itself is just like her world, bizarre, disturbing with missing parts.
10:50 "You will not", wow I got chills man
Bel" Veth has wing span of 28 meters , Her body is roughly half her wingspan in length so around 14 meters and if you add the tail to the core body its should be around 14 meters as well.
You know, that's actually incredibly dissapointingly small
@@lucasnadamas9317 Well the story said each wing is 20 arms length(14 meters). Each tooth is 1 grown human in length since it is not male or female (170 cm) .If you take her teeth and stack them on top of each other she is roughly 7 to 10teeth long or between 12 to 17 meters which is close to the average of 14 meters said previously. We can also find her folded human size by comperain her size in the cinematic infront of kai sa. Kai'sa is around 2 to 2,5 times smaller than bel veth when bel veth is folded . If we go by the KDA kai sa canon size 169 -170 cm beth veth folded/human heigh is around 3,4 to 4,25 meters
Necrit needs to be hired as a lore narrator so that he’s the canon voice of league lore.
I think that Kaisa splash art just shows what she will look like during the event.
She was against the void and now that she has to work together or even for the void in form of Bel'veth, that is was corrupts her.
They should call her mommy Bel'Veth even if she's a monster... Now I have new fantasy.
Imagine her fish end up fighting Rek'sai's brood. Both are mothers, which is just too funny as we have two mothers in league now.
@@P.H691 its kinda like their minions but on steroids
With the reference to bard it makes me think that wherever he's from could be another new "void-ish" realm where we could get crazier looking mystic brings like he is
I imagine bard breaking down some sick beats and waking up the watchers
The watchers story reminds me of the chaos invasion in the Warhammer world.
what I wonder though, since Bel'Veth is so smart, has she even thought what comes next after she consumes everything? Won't she just become like the watchers and want to sleep or die? She doesn't really mention wanting to rule over humans or over anything, she just wants to consume, but then what? I think that there's still room for her to absorb more human traits like ambition or something, to make her want to build something durable, something that lasted yet would not be destroyed, eve by her. Imagine if she becomes the start of a true nation of voidborns in Runeterra, and she would start making her advances in a more calculated, political manner in wars such as other runeterran nations. That could be interesting, for there to be the dimension of the void yet also the nation of the void on runeterra, and they would also be opposites. Maybe she would allow more intelligent voidspawns to be born...
I think what you said about intelligent voidspawn i think is key! She referes to Kaisa as daughter of the void, and refers to herself as the void. So i wonder if she thinks of Kaisa as an ideal version of what a human would be in her new "void world" once everything is consumed.
And i think maybe her long term goal, is to be able to make the void capable of creating new experiences, all on its own. Since thats what the void is reaching out for, and that might even be why BelVeth enjoys talking with Kaisa, seeing her try to find a plan or solution, since thats a new experience
She just wants to consume everything in reality, until only she remains, and thats all she wants. If she succeeds, nor the void or reality would exist, only her, and thats what she wants
No... Because that's the role the watchers already fill. Rito could do that in the future but it would be incredible boring to do so since it defeats the purpose of having another kind fo threat in the void who is more like a force of nature, a cancer that grows without any consideration of what's going to happen after taking over everything. Is in her theme: a entity that destroys without hate, without any animosity against what it destroys. It just takes over things.
I want Riot to take all the time they need to make the story good, like they did with Arcane. So if the Void event isn't happening this year in order for them to make the story as great as it could be, that'd be fine with me.
"A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad." - Shigeru Miyamoto, probably ^_^
I’m gonna assume this has to do with the hex core after It consumes Victors blood, I’m so hyped for the arcane lore implications of this
I am getting Halo flood vives from vel'beth and i am loving it. Like she is a literall gravemind and those beings are extremely scary in the Halo universe, i mean they are the only reason of why the Halos were built in the first place, a suicidal galaxy wide bomb. So it is exiting to think what is runeterra gonna do to deal with a threat of that scale
