Swain understands that he won’t live forever. But that was never his goal. He just needs enough time to reform Noxus. You can tell in his line “Every day I rule, Noxus becomes a more perfect expression of my will.” The fact that it’s a will means he doesn’t care that he will die, so long as Noxus will continue to rise.
Irelia is such a garbage champ, a teenager with no prior training suddenly becomes a super mega hyper warrior and kills everything and everyone and manages to cut off the hand of a guy? Aren't the Noxus knights supposed to be the best and almost unbeatable thanks to their black iron? What is this lore bro, that's just a no u and a Mary sue
@@FarnesV Yeah Noxus loses a lot despite them being sold as this ''great warrior empire'' so I kinda want them to win a bit more. At least Irelia got a little update in that her dance moves she trained during her childhood were actually an ancient art of dancing blades, but yeah her being 14 with no battle experience and beating a general is pretty BS

not so much her , but he did understand the flaw of the void : it learn and evolve in the image of a life it swore to destroy in other world , she was unavoidable (tadumm tss)

Always thrilled that Riot finally made Swain clearly ‘appreciate’ LeBlanc’s attention. If you knew their lore from before his rework, it was heavily hinted that LeBlanc was helping Swain cos she personally liked him and the rest of the Black Rose warned her not to, and during the Sion rework event, it was hinted Swain had been giving her the cold shoulder after she did a ton of things to help him become the new ruler of Noxus. With the rework, it’s pretty clear that Swain is very personally interested in LeBlanc and that makes me happy 😂
it IS their problem. that's the whole deal of the ult preventing things from dying before their time. if it wasnt a problem, wolf would have killed swain already.
@@lokir.4974 that is not quite the case. Kindred simply abide by their own unwritten rules that souls are not for Wolf's taking before the fated time. in the short story A Good Death, Wolf asked Lamb if he could devour "the Maga thing" as he spoke of the young actress in the story. Lamb calmly refused, because her final hour had yet to arrive
It is a problem lol - Mordekaiser waits on the threshold for a chance to rise again, and bring the whole world under his heel. Leblanc cannot stop him, she's failed before, and she's resorting to turning children into weapons against Mordekaiser - Ancient Warrior King, Supreme Spellcaster, and Skilled Torturer. I don't think some teenage girl will be much of a threat to Mordekaiser (I'd be very mad if she was). While It goes without saying that Leblanc has plans within plans and contingencies and backups, but she's failed to stop Mordekaiser before.
Really great video but for the lor quotes you missed a few for Irelia when swain dies in lor. She says ‘leave the corpse to his birds’ and ‘a meager penance’

swain is EASILY the 2nd best/RIVALING #1 lore champion in the game. aatrox's lore is the only one that beats it all. the Garen Line "ignorant of the very magic you carry into battle, how demacian" is golden for explaing how hypocrital the anti magic rules of demacia really is
a single counter argument : the terrifiying implication of jhin very existence in a world of gods,world ending magic and unknow abberation the biggest threat to manking is itself
So how powerful are Darkins when compared to Demons and Ascended. I know they were Ascended of atleast something like that? But I never really understood how powerful the Darkin were compared to everything else besides Aatrox being 22 feet tall in lore and leading an entire Darkin army.
@@IMBAITThey are probable a bit under Celestial level and some of them are probably way higher (Aatrox killing the Celestial or War, Xolaani taking over and fuse with Kayle's mother Aka Celestial of Justice, Horazi who have stole Space power from Targon, Taarosh who was about to kill Xolaani in the past) They were once the most powerful Ascended who got corrupted by void (but still won their War against) and then got betray by Celestial
@@IMBAIT Demons of runeterra are FAAAAR above Their level, at least back in their prime, demons, and most notably Fiddlesticks, are ancient, and i mean ANCIENT creatures, Fiddlesticks being the first scream of creation, he is Fear, true primal fear, Raum over here (Swain's demon) is a demon of secrets, Tahm kench is a demon of desire and greed, Evelyn is the demon of pain and despair and lastly, Nocturne, demon of nightmares all of them scale differently in Present times, but Fiddle sticks by far is still the most powerful
I dont get the voiceline with darius where he said "No daughters, only Soldier" can someone explain? As far as i remember correctly Darius never had a Daughter he had a Son or does he refer to something else?
He had a daughter. Its in the comic. The young lady that killed his former-lover? Yeah, that's his kid. And she took out her mother for the good of Noxus. He also had a son, that died in war. The entire thing is a "I am become Death, Destroyer of Worlds" sort of reference. Do you obey the higher calling, or do your protect your family?
When Sion was alive, Boram Darkwill (King of Noxus before Swain murders him to become the leader of Noxus) and Sion used to be friends. Darkwill said “Beware of Ravens” which was hinting at Swain’s pact with Raum. Raum’s takes the form of Ravens (they’re basically Tzeentch of Runeterra)
funny that his interaction with Kindred shows a veiled attempt at barganing for his life. but once the Kindred come for him, his only choice will be just how he wants to die, really. they couldn't care less about who rules what in Runeterra. there is only duty, and eachother, in the end
This man is litterally preventing mordecaiser from roaming the world of the living and considering he made himself the king of the dead it is accually a resonable argument to not kill swain. I mean mordecaiser is already dead so there is not really much anyone can do to stop him from destroying the entire world after he is out.
Fiddlesticks(Fear),Raum(Secrets),Evelynn(Bliss),Tahm Kench(Obsession),Nocturne(Nightmares) and maybe Shaco(Delirium) could all be primordial demons or are "born" from them

Fiddlesticks completely ignoring Swain and addressing Raum directly was such a chad move.

it's actually double meaning. raum's swain biggest fears, as well as fiddlesticks' ways of greetings
