The character is similar because that’s a real person. He’s considered the best player in the world, that’s why he appears so much in these mvs

He is a literal kid watching an epic battle scene and I'm loving every second of it.

16:34 Yes, that is because this particular character (a player of the team SKT T1, Faker) was the "final boss" in RISE, that's the only character these cinematics share

I would highly suggest the reworked fiddlesticks trailer! It's such a spooky watch and it's like classic horror movie set ups but it's still super cool!

I suggest to look for "As we Fall". A Dope lol cinematic

So to give you some background info Chris, the weapons go with the characters that certain people play in the game, and the characters are based of actual professional players. So the guy who helped him rise up and kept giving him the gem thing, goes by the name of faker. And you may have recognized him from rise, where he was the opponent at the top of the mountain.

your reactions have to be my favorites, love how you go into detail about everything but take the time to just watch and genuinely enjoy them at first without focusing so much on the technical stuff on the first watch edit: also hope you'll react to some of the league stuff you haven't watched yet! i think there's still light & shadow, as we fall, the path, wild magic... there's also the other star guardians videos but i don't remember the names of those right now

"the guy that gives him the thing" is called ingame "Faker" - his team SKT won Worlds 3 times. He is like a god to the League of legends community. He deserves all these honor moments. p.s. On the video Rise he is Ryze, the last fight champion scene on the video :) p.s.s. And Karma on the Phoenix music video

Dude your work is very admired here in Brazil, you are used as an example for many of my colleagues. All success to you and may it grow more and more, condolences from Brazil !!

Basically the story revolved around the league of legends world championship like rise, the guy who is instructing the player going in is Faker considered the best League of Legends player of all time, however in recent years a number of younger players have risen to the status of best players and Fakers dynasty isnt as prominent anymore. His team didn't qualify for worlds this year, the foundation and road he paved for the sport is a metaphor in the video of him instructing newer world champions. Each player he faces in the game is a former world champion representing a different team and the weapons they use are a symbol of their signature champion.

I also want to suddest the "Fiddlestick: Terror of Demacia"

This reaction (and everyone on Chris Connor Channel) make me appreciate more the job behind every cinematic video or music video, you can enjoy them more, and also, when you see a video a few times, you can lost the feeling with the time, but see a person seeing the video for first time, absolutely bring him back. Thanks for the video

My favorite channel for cinematic analysis. Keep the good work man, love your energy and the vibe you bring to your videos. Great deconstruction as always. Can't wait for the next.

I love how you analyse everything this is a quality reaction and so informative. I love this

"the character's design look similar to rise" yea dude, the guy on glasses is Faker, who also appears in Rise cinematic, as the final opponent. He's known as the best player in the world.

Love seeing you react to lol stuff as always. Really enjoyed the breakdown too! The way you picked into the themes and moods the artists were trying to express was really interesting!

I loooove his reactions - the :O face to him catching the spear was too relatable

We"ve been waiting for this. Thank you for taking the time to shoot this.

i was waiting for this, didn't know if you were gonna do it but you did rise so i knew this was bound to come

The guy in the red cape is "Faker" and they used him in a lot of those tournament music videos because he is one of the best League of Legends players of all time. That's why he is being called "The Greatest of all Time" and that is the reason he is put in most of the videos in some kind of final boss.

Suggestion: BALDUR’S GATE 3 TRAILER CINEMATIC! That thing is basically art!

you were so late !!! I've been waiting ugh 😏😩💕

your setup looks soo sick! as always lol. Keep up the good work

When i am on a bad moode,i come on your videos.Your reactions are the best and always (for some reason) make me smile. Keep it up men.

A thing I feel a lot of people look over is the history in this video. As a person who recently got into league two years ago, I saw IG vs FNC and was hooked instantly to not only this game, but the community of other esports titles like csgo and siege. I saw FPX take down G2 live and I really felt and understood what it meant to have your favorite team win a championship. An underdog taking the trophy

people probably already told you this, but the last guy isnt the one who trained him. and the blindfold serves both a way to show his confidence and be like "i'm op" as you say, but it also functions as the character trait from the game that every person had (everyone had a gun from a character on the game). the character is called lee sin and it's a blind monk so basically you could say the guy's gun from the game is the bandana he uses to blindfold himself, but its also such a cool thing to do ahhhhh! it must be riot picking it just to look cool

Llevaba tiempo esperando esta reacción

Each stage is a call back to a different worlds winner. The person giving the gem is Faker, a player who won the championship consecutive times and earned the name "Unkillable Demon King" (the shop they were walking into in the beginning. The first stage was xPeke's Kassadin Second was Mata's Thresh Third Jakeylove's Xayah Fourth Crown's Galio Fifth Bebe's Caitlynn Sixth Bengi's Jarvin IV and finally the most recent world champion, Tian's Lee Sin (lee sin is a blind character in LoL hence the blindfold.

Every week there is a new awesome video that Chris has to react to keep up and delays the reaction to the Overwatch final cinematic. LMAO.

I love how passionate he is about all of this

I find it funny that I didn't notice that the camera was zooming in super slowly then at the end of the first watch of watching the video it zoomed out quickly I was like "oh dam, I wasn't paying attention lmao that was funny" love the little things in your videos!

23:14 That is a comon technique in animation that's very used in action scenes specially in anime called "impact frame" they go so fast that you can't really see them (unless you really know exactly were are placed and subtely notice) in real time but they add impact to the hit, explosion, cut, epic transformations or whatever is happening in the screen. There's a lot more impact frames in this music video alone, just you didn't notice them.

Finally, someone who recognized the bicycle girl from the beginning. 😅 Salute!

The difference between this one and Rise is that he is literally fighting the other world champions. Basically if you want to be the best first you need to be better then the ones before you. Rise was like a mountain that everyone that he fought was trying to climb too.

A NEW DAWN is an older cinematic and it still takes my breath away. Id love to see you freak out over how good it is

when you watch this not for the reaction but for him to explain stuff, because you have a project in filmmaking.

Bro slid that ad in so well I barely realized it was an ad until halfway through it 😂

It is because the guy with the cat is Faker, the epic mid laner from SKT T1 team. If you watchthe scene on the bridge you can see the T1 shirt. And he is known to play EVERY champion on the mid lane, and is a legend among league of legends players.

Great analysis!

Thanks for great work!

Maybe it's just me but I was in love with your old setup with the red plant

dude i love your videos :)

As we fall IS A MUST scenes are beyond epic

suggestions: Overwatch: Zero Hour A New Dawn: A League of Legends Cinematic Ekko: Seconds

Another League of Legends song that is pretty unique imo is their song for their card game (Legends of Runeterra) which is called "Breathe". Its a dope song and I think the art style of the animation is also really dope

Should definitely do "Breathe" and "Legends Never Die" LoL videos, great art styles in those ones too! Love the videos you do, cant wait to see whats next

My favourite part is when the chorus goes to the second take where he gets shot by the sniper and it transition to the game piece

Suggestion: Dark souls series intro cinematics

1:08 i like his "nandatto teme"

I could not see his reaction to the spear catch as anything other than the the poggers face

ME ENCANTA TU NUEVO SETUP PADRE

Yes!! YES!!!

The character with the hood and the glasses is the same character in the RISE cinematic that fought in the last fight with a book. He is Faker, one of the best players in league, considering to be a legend

16:35 they are the same people, his name is Faker he’s considered to be the best world champion. He played a huge part in the creation of the league esport scene which is why he has a cameo on pretty much all of league’s world anthems

I just realized that they were having the brand "Secret Lab" involved aswell, as a partner of them for gaming chairs i guess, since they just recently started working with them and creating league exclusive desings.

11:23 look at the cars number plate LOL

i was waiting for u to uplaod ur reaction to the new leauge of legend music vid :))

another interesting thing to note is that they put the logo for each team on each level the guy reaches.

You must see star wars squadrons cinematic , its amazing!

We need more league cinematic!! Like the odyssey trailer 👀

Though a very different style I would love to see the new afterlife Shadowland cinimatics not only reacted to but as well as professional expertise on how it all works.

You gotta review "Hunted" the Star Wars Squadrons trailer. So many cool cinematic shots I'd love to hear your take on.

CARA NEM TE CONHEÇO E JA TE AMO KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

So... The guy who gave the cristal thing to the main caracter is the champion last year in LoL, the "best player", his name is Faker. The hero he used, the blind fist master (lmao) is named Lee Sin. By the way, the cybercafe was in China, at least the name is written in Chinese（大魔王）. The "thing" under bridge you were talking about at the begining of the video, 水晶影院（the cinema of cristal）it's a cinema...

20:35 for us normal people it’s just simply “they made it look like this for cool animation” Chris a minute later “and that’s why they did it this way” 😄

I would suggest the Tales From Runeterra series of videos that they have put out as they showcase a variety of characters and locations from the league of legends lore

I think it's better to download the video and analyze it offline because I think KZfaq doesn't give access to all frames and also it's not too comfortable. Thanks for the reaction. Very useful information.

at 27:52 her fingers move naturaly. this is masterpiece.

You did the newer trailers from star wars the old republic but there are 3 older trailer they are amazing would love to see you react to them :)

wanna see Legends of Runeterra stories from u so much 🥺

This league of legends cinematic: "As We Fall" it is indeed an amazing cinematic, it has great music and the animations are just breath taking. You should really check it out in the future, it is worth the time

Where he talks at Min 20 in the Video .. the Shot from below. It’s the same image as the „Take Over“ picture, fitting the lyrics.

You should cover some of the champion rework trailers! They're pretty short so you could cover 2 in the same video. I'd suggest the Fiddlesticks Rework and Warwick Rework trailers that some other guys also said before!

This video was cool

FxitinPosts reimagined right between vader and obiwan would be amazing.

This dude during the video: OOOH TAHT WAS SICK OOOOH

Fun fact. During 2020 worlds oppo had a deal with riot where they made a special worlds 2020 version of oppo x2

Great reaction! Hope to react to World of Warcraft Warbringers and Afterlives cinematics.

the one character with the scythe looking weapon is different from the one from RISE. This one is a former league player, Matta, that was an expert with Thresh (a champion from the game that has the exact same weapon), the character from RISE is Uzi, a well known player that was highly associated with that sharpshooter, Vayne. Nowadays, Matta is a League coach, that's why he uses formal clothing in this video, and Uzi has retired at somepoint earlier this year or something like this. Additional info: the first character that appears in the 'game' that the main character of Take Over plays is xPeke. He was a very good player back in the primordial years of League, winning the first World Championship and becoming known because of his backdoor play with Kassadin (a champion from the game that has one ability that allows him to teleport back and forth), that play gave his name to backdoors, when a player wins the game entering the enemy base without the enemy team knowing/seeing/trying to stop.

React to "As we fall" and "Terror in Demacia" pls

"That is a cool weapon thing" Oh did you like energy blades :P

I want him to do maybe a series or something where he looks at all of the champ reveal cinematics. especially pyke's, tahm kench's, and jhin's

In RISE you see Faker at the top. Faker is the guy from the start, setting up a potential candidate/talent that he's spotted in this video. The guy climbing the mountain in RISE is Ambition, and the guy with the arrows at the lava area is Uzi (RISE music video). Here, in Take Over, the new talent is fighting a member from every team that has won Worlds in LoL. Faker, being the most successful, having won 3 Worlds titles, (two in a row) and made it to the Worlds finals three years in a row (four total), is the talent finder from the start, representing T1 (Formerly SKT T1, which stands for South Korean Telecomunications. T1 is unknown). He was given the title "The Unstoppable Demon King" during his first year of competetive play, as he was literally unstoppable and won Worlds in his first year of competetive play, and it can be seen in short as the title of his facility. The first guy the talent fights is xPeke from the first team to win Worlds, Fanatic (FNC), on his signature champion Kassadin, which I do not believe became his signature champion the year he won, but is the one he's the most associated with as he pulled off an insane backdoor play to kill the Nexus of the opponent's base during a high stake match and win the game. The second guy he fights is Mata from Samsung White (SSW), who won the 4th Worlds title, bringing Korea to a 2/4 victory alongside T1, who won the year before (which was 2013). Mata is the support for SSW, and is known for his insane Thresh hooks that would turn games or secure them. The third guy he fights is off screen, but is presumably JackeyLove from Invictus Gaming (IG) on his most dominating champion Xayah. They won Worlds in 2018, making it the first time in 5 years where Korea was not the winning region, and showing how powerful the other regions could be. The fourth guy is also off screen, but is by order of elimination Crown from Samsung Galaxy (SSG) on what looks to be Galio, but some have debated it's Aatrox. The tail, though, convinces me it's Galio. SSG won the 5th Worlds title for Korea, securing the Samsung organisation's second Worlds title in 2017. The fifth guy is Bebe from Taipei Assassins (TPA), as you can see their logo at the top of the champion Caitlyn's rifle's handle in the video. Taipei Assassins won the season 2 Worlds title in 2012. The sixth person, throwing the Jarvan IV spear, is unknown. Speculation, though, has concluded that it must be Bengi in 2016 where he played Jarvan on T1. Bengi is the only other player in LoL Esports that has won 3 Worlds titles, being the Jungler on T1 every year up until 2016, along side Faker in the Mid Lane. Fun Fact: Faker has not won Worlds without Bengi, but has won every Worlds they've attended together. The seventh person is Tian, jungler of FunPlus Pheonix (FPX), who won the last year's title on his Lee Sin. Some would argue that he was the carry for FPX during the finals, where he dominated the opponents heavily on his performance. He was also the MVP of the series. FPX's victory at Worlds 2019 celebrated China's second Worlds title in a row and total. There were only 7 opponents in the video, presumably, because T1 has won 3 World championships with Bengi and Faker. You see Faker outside coaching the new talent, technically referencing them twice. The final showdown with the girl from the start is to show that any anonymous person can become the Worlds 2020 title holder.

For each opponent, there is a hidden team logo to act as a clue as to who the opponent is.

dude the madlad in the streamers chat saying plus ultra lmao

Drink every time chris say "sick"

His expressions: 😃😧😦😮😯😲😬🤯🤯🤤

The guy in the red cape is the guy from RISE the purple magician/mage right in the end of the battle, just share😊

The guy giving him the thing is the legendary pro player in league named FAKER. He is also Ryze in the video you reacted before because he used Ryze as his champ to win a championship.

That dude with the tokens is the same guy that was in the Rise cinematic and there he was the one with book

Anyone know what app or software he uses to make his desktop look like that?

does anyone notice the license plates of the cars are the league champions?? as well as before he meets the cat, in a short scene you will find jinx in a sign on the top left

suggestion: watch ''breathe'', a cinematic song for legends of runeterra (it is from lol too), the art and the moves are sick!

Best part is where xPeke shows up and teleports behind him :)

Awesome as always Chris! Would love to see your take on the "RWBY" trailers, an animated series made by Rooster Teeth (on KZfaq)

So i just watched Chris' reaction to the Annie cinematic from League of legends and he made a comment about the art style of that cinematic and how it was different. I cast my vote and recommend you watch the pre-xpac cinemaics for World of Warcraft. "The Burdens of Shaohao," "Warbringers," "Lords of War," and "Afterlives." They all have a special art flare to them and they are all amazing

Okay, two mandatory things to react to: A new dawn (which is not a music video and is a pretty violent one) Light and Shadow (which I still think is the apogee of Riot's «filmmaking»)

"Thats pretty sick"

Really want Chris cheak out "Lament of the fallen" too cause that's a really good animation as well. It's a bit more Japan anima style thought👀
