I'm just gonna pretend the ruination event never happened and that Riot's writing was always top tier

The best character here is Rakan, if you pay close attention he isn’t perfectly happy with Ahri and co, when he speaks about it, he shows genuine sadness and grief over their abandonment, but he doesn’t harbour any hate for them, instead he speaks perfectly to convey what Ahri did wrong to him and what he feels about it.

Don't let this distract you from the fact that, canonically, in the Star Guardian universe, Kassadin owns a pet shelter and Pantheon owns a bakery. Some champs do be living their dreams in the SG universe.

They need to make a series like Arcane but the Star Guardians. Because the lore is actually really amazing!! Also the trailers are all so pretty!! ❤️

Twin stars is one of the best stories Riot has made in my opinion, I would've loved to see this fight animated so much, I hope we get it someday.

"Rakan was gone, Neeko was dead" "but what about Xayah?", Holy crap this line got me good

This truly is the love story rakan and xayah deserve

My boy Rakan finally being the mvp he always was supposed to be! What a great written story. I'm ao hyped for the event. Let's just hope Riot learned from the Ruination event.

The way Xayah and Sarah's emotions were written here is just painfully perfect, I teared up so much when Xayah was enraged at them for abandoning her and how she thought she returned to life with 2 betrayal but knowing Neeko survived too there were actually 3 and Sarah shouted back she might be alive, but she wasn't living bc she felt so guilty for Xayah, Rakan and Neeko death. It was just gut wrenching. And Rakan's sacrifice was the cherry on top of this amazing story. I really hope Riot will turn SG into an animated series like they did with Arcane.

In Starfall at the campfire Janna said to Lux team that "those who shine brighter shine shorter". In Twin Stars : "And even though dark feathers continued to pierce through him, chaos corrupting him from the inside out, Sarah was awed by how brightly he [Rakan] shone." If it isnt peak storytelling

I remember when Star Guardian Lux was the only champ of the line I ever saw and it repulsed me because I’m not a big pink person. I figured they were just Sailor Moon rip offs… flash forward 5-6 years and it’s one of my favorite skin lines and I’m racing through KZfaq to find out more about them 😂

Friendly reminder that I will stream tonight's release!

Lmao just watched the new MV and came to necrit wondering if he had a consolidation of Kaisa and akali's SG lore. Not disappointed XD

Rito, we need a full animation to this whole story like dude its the prime material for success

i dont know about the other Xayah mains , but i did defently cry by feeling Xyaha her pain in losing her Rakan . insane job of riot to write it so good that it let ppl cry.

My boy Rakan finally got the spotlight he deserved, but I still hoped there is a way for Rakan to come back.

Necrit, I have a hint that Xayah, while finding ways to get back to Rakan, formed a new team, and that's the new team for Wildrift. Many promotional art for Wildrift includes an Uncorrupted Xayah with Orianna, Seraphine and Senna.

Ngl I was choking up the tears listening to Rakan's exit, especially after watching the music video. But this story only explains Xayah's grief in the MV, so what the hell happened between Kai'sa and Akali??? Hope that there's another story coming

“Optimism can’t stop the sky from falling down.” One of the best lines. You can feel the emotional dilemna this line is pointing out. Good read. The story is indeed great.

Love how syndra is just that powerful, wish she had more spotlight in the fight tho , she just goes about her business after lol love her for that.

It makes me sad every time Kai'sa mentions her dad in this universe. Kai'sa and kassadin as a happy family is just great to think about

Seeing a T-posing Lulu flying towards Zoe made my day

I kinda understand why the new MV is called “Everything goes on”😭😭😭 ✨⭐️✨

I really loved this last story, it gives a suiting end to a story that had been building up for 5 years. The only problem I had with is that it didn’t end with lux as the protagonist/narrator. She had served as the main narrator during all the 3 short stories, and in twin stars she became more of a side character in favor of Sarah. I get why they did it, since it was all about the old team reconciling together to fight of Zoe. But it still feels wrong that she didn’t get to close the chapter, when she virtually guided it through the whole series.

Riot took one look at Madoka Magica and said "How can we make OUR magical girls suffer too..."

Imagine syndra literally 1v1 Zoe in a flight without scratch and fear she is powerful on her cannon lore and shes way to OP here in the SG universe too

the star guardian lore is trily one of riots best work, not only are the visuals beautfiul, but the story is so tragically amazing, the relationships are increbily well built, and it has the perfect mix of love and chaos

Rakan, being both best boy, and the MvP of the story really makes me happy, as a Rakan Main.

I Still believe Rakan is alive because the Star Guardian Skin Animation in Wild Rift Redeemed Star Guardian Xayah Finding Fully Corrupted Rakan then saved him ( the role is reversed) Edit : It would be cool if Rakan doesn't remember a thing

Just wait till they make Lux reveal her self as the first star and give her another ultimate skin 🗿

I literally shed tears towards rakan. If that thing happened to me and my boyfriend I would definitely pass out from crying

So wait, did lux ever die? Akali has a voice line towards kai’sa saying “Do you wanna be a statue like Lux?”

Syndra must be really powerful. She fought against Zoe singlehandeldly for Awhile without a scratch

The reference of grand exit being the opposite of rakans w grand entrance was a nice touch

Perhaps Wild Rift SG event will be focused on Xayah and Rakan while LoL PC will be focused on Kaisa and Akali

Riot should really try to animate all these lores if possible. The storyline always carries emotions which will be great to watch as well... 🙂❤ Like the "Arcane" series these will be a hit as well if they plan to do so... 😇

Did lux die in the new SG lore? Because I saw that she's giving/passing a SG power to Kai'sa and I feel like that scene is so emotional

that was dead ass one of the best stories i’ve ever read from riot, made me tear up a little

Still confused as to Syndra's allegiance in all of this. I understand there is some connection with Zoe, but is she acting as a double agent? Faking allegiance to Zoe so she can keep her in check, and be aware of where she is? Or is she ACTUALLY on Zoe's side? The grin she had when Ahri and Neeko arrived in the nick of time kinda messed me up I am confusion

this must be one of the first videos (since the outro was made) that doesn't end with the classic outro. makes sense with the circumstances lol, another great video! thanks necrit

firsthand experience in reading event lore or lore in general might be great but it won't beat Necrit's voice and narration which I personally enjoy while doing my own stuff

28:26 I'M CRYING 😭 LULU IS ASSERTING DOMINANCE

Damn, this sounds like the perefect setup for a pve gamemode with zoe as the endboss

I watch the video with the client in background with the new SG music and it made this already good video so much better, the music went well with you speaking and the events happening.

As a new person to league of legends still, I heavily enjoy this story and necrit's lore videos going over and detailing it.

I love this story. It doesnt tell us how akali and kaisa became star guardians but still this is sick

I was just looking if you already uploaded something, thanks for delivering

I actually love this. SG lore is always the best one 🥰 I just hope we get cinematic video of some fights like we got 2/3 years ago. Otherwise story is just beautiful and it made me tear up on some parts. I loved it ♥️

As a Xayah main, this story and the animation with it made me cry. It's sooo good though and I also recommend reading the story yourself.

Maybe Syndra, Zoe, Fiddlesticks (human), Morgana and Janna were all part of a team before they got corrupted? Fiddle was clearly a Star Guardian that was completely corrupted, Morgana too, but not as bad as Fiddle. Zoe was corrupted, but not as bad as Morgana. Syndra was corrupted but not as bad as Zoe (hence her eyepatch concealing her corruption). which leaves Janna being the only one to escape unscathed. I think Janna was a part of their team because she knows a LOT about Syndra's past and winces every time Syndra is mentioned around her, she mentors Lux and her bio states; "A veteran Star Guardian, Janna now mentors the young and impressionable Lux. This seasoned Guardian rarely offers information about her mysterious past, and often seems preoccupied with memories of another place and time in her life. While distant and soft-spoken, Janna is the wisest of her team, holding a wealth of knowledge about their greater purpose and gently guiding them towards true understanding."

Thank you! Now I finally understand the 'Everything Goes On' video, at least the Xayah/Rakan portion lol. I've read some of the event lore, but will have to either wait for a video or read it online to understand the Kaisa/Akali portion 😅

left this video to go read the star guardian lore in preparation for the event and now im so hyped and excited... Part 1 of the event was fun and i wanna see more!! I hope you cover the client visual novel when its all done, or even chapter by chapter!

RAKKAN IS THE QUILL THAT WILL PIERCE THE HEAVENS

I just saw your post on reddit, I had to click the vid right away. That depiction of lulu cannonball made me chuckle a bit

love you for vividly explaining everything in order piece by piece, thanks!

As a Rakan main, Ucruzuhugctgamd IM CRYING RN F*****CK

My favorite skin line used to be Project, but Star Guardian has overcome it with superior story and amazing skins for some of my favorite champions.

The star guardian stories are always so amazing I love them and it makes me happy that league is extending their universe

When i read the story it actually brought me to tears, then a few days later they release the video and we got hit even more in the feels, im very interested in what is going to happen next

I'm in tears. That is one of the most amazing wrriten stories up there. Hope to read more of it!

They NEED to animate this! It'd look absolutely amazing.

The most tragic part about all of this is that there doesn't seem to be a pve event

so beautiful and well-written, thx necrit, you told it wonderfully ❤️ it'd have been amazing if they turned it into an arcane style series

thanks for making this. its hard to keep up with all the dialog in the game. this helps

StarGuardian lore really is vast enough to generate their own anime. Im not even kidding, if riot keeps pumping out series to netflix this is the next story i want to see cos its incredible enough written not to see it animated.

I wasn't expecting how emotional this would make me :'/. The story is really beautiful

Omg thank you necrit been waiting for this

I love how there are some elements of the Madoka Magica anime placed in the star guardian lore.

Man I am so happy about this event, this has been everything sentinels of light could have been in terms of lore and world building but it just couldn't be due to terrible planning. In terms of SG alone, I am so grateful to riot to finally give Syndra the love and respect she deserves being finally portrayed as one of the most powerful (maybe the most powerful) SGs at the level of the corrupted ones, the question here is if she will then, work on her own aside the SGs established to pursue whatever her goal is, or, if she will somehow betray the prime star to deal with the star nemesis on her own. What a time to be a Syndra main.

Wow… such an amazing story! Def willing to get into the event

Actually made me tear up, god I need them to make a comprehensive SG game or release a comic book series.

If ever Necrit you have an order of videos for your SG lore, could ya drop them? That would be lovely to binge.

I disagree with a lot of people. I am a Rakan main, and SG skin him all the time cause it's (imo) the best skin he has. But... unlike many others I am not upset about him dying as that is very much a thing he would do if you knew his voice lines... this is how he'd have wanted it. He's a protector, willing to put his life on the line for his friends and loved ones and sacrifice himself.... He knew he was doomed by taking that corruption onto himself and went out for the final dance with the one who threated not only his freedom but his Miella.

I loved this story so much, haven't cried while reading a story in a while!

I like how everyone is like fighting to save the world or getting emotional moments and Syndra just "Nanomachines, son"

great Video Necrit, thanks for your effords

Damn Both Sarah and Xayah both had psychological Trauma and that made them Burst into despair. The Story was so Azmazing and tragic it almost made me cry. Damn You Rakan always the Show off for her. 😥😥

i need an answer...is lux really dead or she just ascended into something more powerful because she can give powers now? or thats the first star using her body?

5:15 that detail about Soraka and Janna is so cute, it fits them perfectly

Thanks for the video, I needed it since I'm not the type who reads. 😅 Can't wait to understand more with the event! One more thing tho, I didn't understand if the other greenish haired person in the video in Kai'Sa side is Rakan or someone else. Could it be Akali? 🤔

not gonna lie Star guardians is my favorite skinline out of all league skinlines, except for battle acadamia. I love the simple story of star guardians and now its getting more lore?? and more sad backstories??? count me in

Im still wondering how they gonna fit how akali and kaisa became guardians and how morgana and fiddlesticks will add into the lore

YOH I read this but hearing necrit makes it 1000% better. Thanks a lot for this video, I legit cried mid way

I'm actually excited how the new villains will play their role in the next story. Oh how I wish they would make an anime about star guardian lore that would be really good imo

"they are just good friends" 🙂

I was on the verge of tears up until lulu was thrown at Zoe with the most ridiculous T-Pose I've ever seen and that caused me to burst into laughter 😂😂 28:25

The moment you get teary eyed from a leauge lore video.

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THISSS

Mah boi from Grand Entrance to Grand Exit. This is how we do it and why we do it. For the team. For her. Just imagine it becoming anime with the best studios making it too.

Why is it that all the purple star guardians are eventually corrupted? Also each colour represents a role on the team Pink : leader Green : sup Red: adc Purple: mage/midlane Blue: tank/ adc ( poppy and ez) Sidenote 📃: What if Asol is the First star

Hope you still read comments: I really loved hearing every second of the lore it was so interesting and deep i didn't spew a word. I also now understand why in one of tge SG shorts Xayah said "will i be able to save him?" Meaning Rakan after sacrificing himself to get rid of Zoey's infection on Xayah. For me SG is the best thing to come out of League but there is one question remains unsolved for me: If Xayah went looking for Rakan by herself how did she meet Senna,Seraphine and Orianna?

finalllyyy u uploaded hahahahha beeennn waiting here in garena server in PH It 4 hours more ... time check 11;57 PM

This story was so amazing to read!!!

Dunno if I'm speaking for others or just me, but it's a little frustrating that RIOT spends so much time and effort fleshing the lore out of alternative universes instead of Runeterra. We get so much flashy stuff for these reimaginations of characters that it's now very common for characters to have more alternate lore than existing lore from Runeterra. To play the role of a cynic, these universes just seem more profitable than Runeterra as a whole. You can sell skins, create catchy music, cosplays - it's all there to drive engagement. We've received literal drips of lore since the Ruination event, and that event clearly wasn't given the attention it deserved either. The writing here is great. The animation on the trailers, the music, the skins - all top notch. But it's so frustrating to see all this effort regularly spent selling skins, rather than fleshing out champion lore. It's so convoluted, hard to follow and personally I feel it actually deducts from the integrity of the original champion's design. I mean, at the time of writing we have: Anima Squad, High Noon, Battle Academia, Lunar, Star Guardian, Super Galaxy, Battlecast, KDA, Arcade, Chaos and Order, Spirit Blossom and SO many more. All this content just feels like bloat and it leaves so many champions feeling completely lacking in lore and "high moments" like animated shorts.

Everytime he says “shouted” it always takes me back to the gnar video “he shouted shubanuffa “

I wasn't expecting the story to be THAT GOOD! It blew me away. I was never a fan of Rakan but damn, he got the best ending while creating a perfect path for the new generation to continue. Is clear that Kai'sa wants to go out in a similar blaze of glory and that Akali knows the futility behind that sort of action, I hope they don't drop the ball during the event.

i hope they make a show about this one day. in my opinion arcane didnt cut it for me, i just did not find it interesting enough to keep watching (sorry arcane fans). star guardians animations are also more appealing to look at as well.

So Kassadin exists in this universe, interesting

This was a pretty sad yet lovely story. I'm a bit irked that I didn't find this until after I was done with Another Sky.

Please can we get an animated series of this , i would love that so much !
