It's Darkin here. Kayn you turn on the light?

just thinking blue eyes and red eyes something about the eyes right, jax has blue eyes what if and only if he fought the darkin that tried to corrupt him and won? May be the reason why he does not want to wield a real weapon is because he fear that there are some traces left of the darkin within him and using a real weapon will manifest the darkin?

as for the lore hounds : wiki clearly states : **darkin are sentient WEAPONS**

Since the darkin can take over someone, that means they take control right? If im playing aatrox, i take control of him, IM THE DARKIN CONFIRMED

5 Darkin, 5 horsemen of the apocalypse (Death, War, Famine, Pestilence and Conquest) Varus is Conquest due to his bow which conquest is always seen with, Death is Rhaast and War Aatrox as mentioned by Rhaast. So two more darkin on the way, most likely with some strange damage over time abilities.

Darkins are so cool

So, Aatrox = Top Kayn/Rhaast = Jg Varus(?) = ADC (?) = Supp (?) = Mid

I like that now we have 3 types of Darkin in game: Aarox - the one that has fully taken over his hosts body Kayne - Someone who recently got his weapon (Rhaast) and is fighting for dominance Varus - Someone who seams to have dominated his weapon (Darkin) since we never heart it speak also Rhaast uses Varuses name insted a name that would fit a Darkin making it seam like the darkin has been dominated.

Damn I think aatrox is the most op champion in league because of his lore * plays Aatrox then went 3/12/5 *

That's how I like Rito, 1 new champ every 2 months

Varus corrupted by the Darkin of Revenge?

My theory is that the Darkin are actually the weapons who are trying to take over a hosts body (which explains Aatrox' title "Darkin blade"). If you look at Varus' lower body half it is as if the darkin(weapon) is still trying to get him. Same goes for kayn

Demonblade Tryndamere? I mean in the animation his weapon breaths!

I love how Aatrox is such a huge part of the lore but then he is absolutely useless in game

Dude I love your vids, lore is awesome and you make it clear!

Jsem rád že se ti daří :) a zároveň ti přeji vše nej do budoucna protože jsi jediný kdo se o příběh LoLka zajímá. Mám tě za ty videa atd. hrozně rád a tvůj channel jsem si oblíbil strašně moc, nebýt tebe skoro nic moc o příběhu LoLka nevím a díky tobě jsem začal znovu hrát LoLko. Doufám, že jsis můj komentář přečetl :)

What do you think? Is it possible that Kayn`s lore may influence the possible change in Aatrox`s lore and also his future rework?

It is so obvious: Jax was so strong because he could manage over all the 5 Darkins (since he's the master of weapons), once they prohibited him to use the weapons, he hide them through the world but, the weapons thirsty of power, found other fighters.

Your vids are amazing. I think you definitely deserve more subs.

one of my favorite stories nice job ty

Aatrox in game should have abilities to buff his allies because that is pretty much what he does in his lore + he kills them as well

I think it would be awesome if they have a event based on the reveal of the other 2 darkins

yay new video from my best lore teller and update teller

loved the live reaction

Is there lore about the strap on Varus's chest? If not then could it be that the strap is a darkin? Or that varus wears more than one darkin like the pants, the bow, and the strap? Since Rhaast mentions demon pants. Would love it if you answered 😊

Aatrox is the darkin of war Kayn is the darkin of death Varus is probably of pestilence so there are still the darkin of conquest and famine

what a freaking beast you called it b4 the music video wp

thanks #Necrit you are really a kind person your voice is really good.... And I love your channel... I really appreciate your work man... keep it up

The weapons are the Darkin!!!! yayyyy, this was correct!

I personally think that Rhaast was sealed in there since there is a line that goes something like this (not the exact words): *Kayn Recalls* Rhaast says that Kayn should stay and fight blah blah blah Then Kayn asks in a mocking way if that mentality was the reason Rhaast got "emprisoned" in the weapon Edit: I forgot a word

Yay Necrit Bedtime stories :) Your voice is really soothing so I can not be tense >_

I rly appreciate your efforts and congratulations for your graduation.

If the darkin are so powerful , then why there are only few remaining ?

i'm i the only one that deaths dance looks kinda look like a darkin or darkin weapon

cool video, you mentioned that there might be 4 or 5 darkin that will be so cool when the rest come at and play with your friends as a darkin team

I love your choice of music, the Warlords album is one of my favorites

what do rhaast and aatrox have together? both have a double "A" in their names. And the fact that varus doesn't have a double "A" is that he wasn't originally a darkin, but got connected to one. If i am right that would mean that every darkin has a double "A" in his name. this results in the fact that varus aatrox and rhaast are the only darkins known.

5:50 now, with the new Varus-story that makes absolutely clear that Varus is the bow (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gdR5Z8iklajaaH0.html if you have not seen it yet) the "five" Rhaast mentions could theoretically alos be: Kayn, Rhaast(the weapon), Kai, Valmar and Varus(the weapon)... theoretically.However that would mean that at first he thinks Varus does currently exist without host and that would be pretey much bullshit. Now who are the other Darkins?I remember a demon of some sort killing Vaynes parents, but that is the only slight guess I can bring in.

love your video sooo much

Great to see my main Doing all this Badass stuff.

ok. please hear me out on my theory. i do think that the darkin are initially the weapons, that take over a body as a host. with kayn, we have the choice to enbrace or renounce the darkin aatrox is a host completely taken over by the sword and varus did not give in to the corruption of the darkin bow since he is that determined to get his revenge

7:58 Every... f*ckin... time, when I hear "Uhhh how some champions (like Aurelion) made it to the League?"

"two of us... uh, five of us" in kayne's dialogue to varus... sounds like a reference to kai and valmar inside varus?

your voice and the background music is soo good

what if jax is same as kayn kayn has 2 forms: shadow assasin and darkin form. what if jax's weapon was also a darkin? as u can see, his eyes are blue maybe he destroyed the darkin inside his weapon which is the same thing from kayn when he choose the shadow assasin form where he destroyed rhaast. the darkins in jax's splash art must be hunting him because of killing their kind what do you think necrit?

necrit if u havent seen it Zed is kayns master

Awesome video

i think when he says the 5 of us hes talking about varus, varus's weapon, aatrox (his blade is "part" of him), kayn's body during darkin form, and rhaast

Hey necrit, I know that you are very busy but can you do a video on death`s dance because if you look closely, it has an eye on it like the weapon Kayn uses.

Hey necrit, You think the figure in the project overdrive trailer could be connected to the darkins?

great video :)

As someone whos favorite champion has been aatrox for 3 seasons now all this darkin related lore makes me very very happy!

Varus is 3 people (2 lovers and the darkin the 2 won against the darkin) Kayn is 2 kayn and rhaas total of 5 but rhaas mixes it up by thinking varus is 1

This info might be super lame, BUT Rhaast, Vaarus and Aatrox are all left handed (or atleast holding their darkin thingies on the left side)

that new varus vid was fuckin dope and clears shit up pretty well

Remember the name of Varus's Passive? Living Vengeance, that explains it and what is changing during the activation of the passive, his Bow.

How about this ides.Look at tryndamere when he ults,he has glowing red eyes and it is known that he was corrupted by aatrox.Now look at Jax,he has bright glowing blue eyes.Aatrox has red eyes and Kayn has blue ones,what if jax is in the same spot as Kayn only that he managed to overpower the darkin in his lantern at all times.What if those darkin shadows in his splash were the shadows of a failed darkin,or Aatrox trying to save his failed brother.Maybe it is a little bit crazy but it would be awesome to be true.

Hello Necrit, can you do an explanation of Kayn's relationship with Zed and Shen? Much appreciated :)

I like that since Rhaast is the Darkin of Death, the weapon that Rhaast is represented as is a scythe.

Fun Fact: there are actually 5 horsemans of the Apocalypse: War, Death, Famine, Pestilence (the four known ones) AND Conquest, this last one is never talked about, it has something to do with the War replacing him in the history where the 4 horsemens come at the end of times, but i have no more info on this

yo Zed has trained Kayn to the ascended form of Raahst like Zed is good ??

I've been saying varus is a darkin for a while now😑.

I think Varus is corrupted by an essence of a Darkin. But with the amulet/ necklace thing its help resisting the darkins corruption powers. Sorta like Yorick and is vile is stopping the black mist from fully consuming him. Since the essence of darkin isnt that strong ( compared to the mist) he can control the bow, unlike yorick who can summon but cant control the mist. In regaurds of The demon pants quote, Rhaast says to varus is more of an insult towards the Darkin essence since he can't fully corrupt Varus.

Considering the recent lore update, I think that Rhaast's "3 of us....uhm 5 of us?" line to Varus might be referring to the two of them + Kayn (3) + Kai and Val (5), rather than the other remaining Darkin. The tone of it makes much more sense to me that way.

according to lore , who is stronger - aatrox or rhaast ?

Varus lore has changed ^^

When it comes to Varus then it is possible that the bow that he is using now was sealed in the well. It really depends on the warding since if it says something like - the corrupted well was sealed - then we can take it as the well being filled with the bows power.

I read a thing where the four horsemen were embodiments of corruption that "rode" on humans and other sentient lifeforms as their host. I think this might be similar to that. In addition, I think that the Weapon is the core of their being, and the corrupted Rhaast hasn't had enough time in that form to truly make the body his - after all, Aatrox doesn't give any hint that he's changed his body in the past forever, so comparing how Aatrox and Rhaast are with their bodies is like comparing a bladesmaster with a squire.

soraka needs a story update too She is from Ionia but now she has no conection with warwick or singed anymore... OMG...what if...SHE WAS CORUPTED BY THE BANANA DARKIN! THAT WOULD EXPLAIN EVERYTHING also she is a support what if she knows something about that well...the "well of life" mby...mby there is where the others darkins were locked

maybe are darkins just spirits that corrupt phisical things like man (aatrox) or wapons (kayns wapen and varus bow)

Something interesting is that there technically ARE 5 horsemen. They use to be war, death, famine, and conquest. Pestilence replaced conquest due to different translations of the Greek word Thanatos. It be interesting if they actually use the four horsemen and the forgotten horsemen as inspiration for the darken

some say there are 5 horseman of the apocalypse. you got war, death, famine, and pestilence, the "originals" , but you can also add conquest to the list insted of pestilence.

The 5 darkins? For all lanes? Top - Aatrox Jungle - Rhaast Mid - New champ Adc - Varus??? Support - new champ Id love to see this happen Like if you agree, so this comment goes up

This new character is so edgy that unless they use Crawling or Bring Me To Life as his (their?) login music I'd be disappointed.

It makes sense that Varus is being corrupted by a Darkin because similar to how Aatrox is called the Darkin Blade Varus' title is the Arrow of Retribution. Which would imply that he is a weapon similar to how the Darkin might be weapons.

gotta say that i love this intro

Whos watching in 2017??? Hope you have nice day☺️😊😀😂😁😄 SIKE!!!! Just kidding, but arent you tired of seeing these???

First lmao!

Would make sense if Varus ends up related to the Darkin, since they relate (until now) to the riders of apocalypse. The rider of death carries a scythe, the one of war carries a sword and pestilence a bow. On other sources, pestilence was originally called Conquest, and its rider used a bow and had a crown. Of course, riot may do a complete different thing, because famine should carry a balance, and a champion with a balance would be really bizarre, even for LoL.

in his darkin form he said: oh these legs will take some getting use to

@Necrit One of the lines when Kayn transforms into the Darkin is "Destruction, Wrath, Fury as it was meant to be . Could it be that : Aatrox is Fury, given to Tryndamere , Destruction is Rhaast since he is the Darkin of death. Varus would be wrath because he wants the noxians who destroyed his village to feel his wrath .. ? Varus' passive is Living vengeance, could mean his bow is alive. As for the Demon pants quote, I think it said somewhere that Varus was fighting the corruption within and it would eventually consume him. Could be because varus wants to kill the Noxians and in doing so losing himself.

My theory is that Varus actually overcomed a Darkin in the bow, gaining its power. Thats why Rhaast recognizes him as one of the Darkins. It will be possibly revealed in the lore update. Another thing is that maybe the well contained an essence of Darkin, released from a weapon (perhaps a bow, since it's the form of a weapon Varus uses?) and sealed in it? That's just how I think

The darkins are the weapons, it is clearly told to us throught the voice lines : they are entities of an unknown original form (maybe the form they take when they possess their wielders) that can be and i think all got scield in certain physical objects (just like Rhaast)

man i love you

Three are Aatrox, rhaast and varus the blade. When Kayne corrects himself and says 5 he means he has included the two human hosts combined with the bow.

Darkin blade Darkin arrow Darkin Scyth Darkin scales Darkin crown

aatrox is his blade, because of his W and also his dance when he dance the sword is dancing , but he just control the humain completly so he don't need to quit his body.

my theory on varus is that he bent his darkin to his will, similar to how kayn does in game, excpet varus is already past that point, it makes him a nice counter to what happened with aatrox where weapon consumed host, varus could be host who consumed Darkin, while kayn is before that stage(because in lore he's not shadow assassin form or Darkin for yet, we just know from his gameplay in the future he could become one of the 2 forms. Bit of headcanon here but to me it sounds like the voice filter they put on kayn(shadow assassin form) is similar to the voice filter on Varus, it's a rather specific coincidence.

You know after looking at game play of the show assassin form I noticed that as the game goes on the icon changes and starts to resemble the Darkin form. It is possible that Kayne has not truly dominated the weapon or maybe it shows us that he is turning in a Darkin. This would mean that the Darkin are humans that have been transformed by the weapons.

I always thought the color purple was reserved for the Void. It makes me thing Syndra might be tapping into void magic, but void magic seems to revolve around portals and not creating matter.

5 darkins are.. aatrox- the well known one rhast- newest known darkin varus - corrupted by aatrox blood well which is aatrox passive tryndamere - demonblade tryndamere where the animation of his blade is breathing and the blade ia attached to him jax - he was once corrupted by a darkin weapon but manage to fight it and never uses it again.. that's why jax sometimes said "imagine if i had a real weapon"

Long ago, I had a hypothesis about the titles of Katarina: The sinister blade, Varus: The arrow of retribution, Jax: The grandmaster at arms and Kalista: The spear of vengeance reffering to the champions being darkins, but with the addition of Kayn's weapon the theory doesn't really make sense, as it would leave us with 6 darkins in total... Riot probably planned these 4 champs to be darkins, but later changed the idea. Anyways, I am so happy this little clue was finally featured in a video!

after the varus lore update when Rhaast says the 5 of us it probably means Kayn, and Rhaast and then Valmar, Kai and (Varus?) otherwise known as the Beast which is the Darkin that holds them all together so that's 5 they were talking about not the 5 Dark kin

The five four horseless horsemen of the apocalypse!

Fields of Justice! Necrit: *TRIGGERED*

There are five horsemen of the apocalypse technically. There's War, Death, Famine, Pestilence and Conquest. At some point Conquest got replaced with Pestilence who wasn't really a horsemen originally. Also when looking back on somethings to refresh my head on this stuff, I now believe Varus to be Conquest or have the Darkin counterpart.

When Rhaast says: "Varus, the three of us, five of us..." I think it's refering to Aatrox, Kayn, Varus, the Darkin corrupting Varus and himself, maybe he is still not used to refer himself as "one" and takes into consideration that Kayn is still there, as well for Varus or his Darkin. It's a wild guess but it's one way to see it.

I think that every darkin was sealed inside a weapon or was born that way. And they tempt their users and depending on what happens they become possessed and fully darkin. When the host body dies I think they wait for another person to eventually take over. Unless the user is strong enough to tame it like Kayn possibly in game. I think this because when Kayn becomes possessed he looks very similar to Aatrox as one would clearly see. Varus though is a tricky question. He is related to the other two darkin in some way. A darkin himself possibly but he doesn't seem fully possessed but the others know him well. Incredibly interested to see this story develop.

The "Four Horsemen" is a misnomer. There are five horsemen, Death is the fourth whose shadow, Hades, is an unseen phantom and the one who ushers the dead to the afterlife for salvation or damnation.

Nice use of the WoW music!
