what matters to me is whether naafiri can push the lore forwards and not just a missing piece to the darkin story

Makes sense but in lol we have two types of lore champions the champions who don't push the lore: Naafiri, blitz, hecarim, vayne, taric, pike and a lot of others. And the ones who push: Zoe, ekko, zillean, aatrox, leblanc, viego, thresh and a lot of other champions. For me it makes sense that some champions don,t push the lore and some others push, like imagine how fast the lore would end if all the champions pushed it.

@abelyoramandradesilva3749 bro the lore will never end. Imagine a novel with 12 chapters and how many events happen in such a novel.we littarly are in chapter 1. We never explored ryze, like that guy alone has insane story potential with many possible encounters with characters. And demacia noxus piltover shurima and the island of ionia. How isn't this lore infinitely explorable with infinite possible encounters and events. There could be an event where all of the nations gets to defend the world from one big threat to the world of runterra despite all their fights and wars between them. This is just an idea i came with on the spot. Like aliens that come to runterra to gather magic and it's whole new champion type. The lore objectively can't end and it's so unexploited right now.

Every champion Pushed Lore in some way. (Maybe not Mundo) Taric told us how it looks when you climb Mount Targon Zoe is concept of "What if Celestial beings were more human and less serious?" Kayle and Morgana - beggining of Demacia and "What is aspect has children?" Naafiri and K'Sante in their stories told us that even ANIMALS can be Ascended/Darkin LeBlanc stories in some way pushed forward the Lore but in some way she just unvailed little stuff that already happened while setting few more question marks. WHOLE ruination event pushed the world forward with each conected champion evolving trough it. Fiddle became primordial great demon, first of 10, Nilah is wielding power from second of their kind. Gwen and Lillia are new type of creature not fully a spirit not fully a real person - more like animated wish of something bigger or stronger Milio didn't gave a lot but still he gave some champions(Zyra, Qiyana, Neeko, Nidalee) place to settle in timeline. Vex is exact oposite of every Yordle we already have. She reveals that Yordles as spirits cannot die. Every Yordle is somewhat personification of concept or archetype. They are immortal and obsesed about something so they become IT. That means they are kind of "unfixable" they will be themselved no matter what. That's why Yordles look liek caricature of their chosen persona Tristana is soldier, Heimer is more about thinking than doing, Lulu wants to "Do magic!" even tho it works 50/50, Vex seems to be depressed 24/7 but still some good feelings spark trough. Just like Veigar tries to be evil but he can't - even Mordekaiser didn't turn him on his side. EVERY champion adds something to the table.

I actually think the lines talking about how powerful she is isn't actually reality, but that is her own perception of herself. She thought she as an individual was powerful and could kill or rule all others. But then she realized that this way of thinking was flawed to begin with. Because every Darkin thought the same about themselves was why they lost.

About Naafiri being especially powerful and having "almost" led the Darkin During the story I interpreted that as her subjective opinion and thought it was a quite spot-on detail Since the story is written from Naafiri's point of view, as a Darkin, it makes a lot of sense that she would believe she was "that close" to rule them all, wouldn't it?

This is just a thought. Maybe instead of being actually powerful enough to rule the darkins, Nafiri was only relatively powerful, and her claiming she could lead them is just her overconfidence speaking. It is mentioned that she is ambitious, and in my opinion, most ambitious people are also overconfident.

I think the idea of Naafiri being powerful enough to lead the darkin is all in her head. Like some of the other darkin, she vied for leadership and believed that she deserved to be in control because she believed she was the strongest. It turns into a story of a massive ego humbled into looking at the power dynamics from a different perspective.

I think Naafiri's hype is most likely that high because all champions weren't having a proper event to introduce them (Except Viego, tho it was catastrophic, he stilled was hyped) But Naafiri remind us of the Darkin Even that is yet to come, thus the hype I think, and not Naafiri itself.

How I personally interpret Naafiri saying she almost lead them, is that she just thinks herself more powerful than she realistically is. Not saying she isn't powerful at all, just that if I were a near immortal god being my ego wud be pretty big, especially after having eons to remember the days when I could take on some of the best of my kin. Like many of the Darkin she probably thought she knew best and wanted to lead her own way. I'd love to see a story where she actually meets the others and has to confront that the other Darkin don't share her ambitions and even treat her as lesser because of her form, maybe even flat out ignoring her.

Personally, I think Naafiri talking to herself about how powerful she was and how she almost ruled all the darkin is just her ego. From her story, it seems she was kind of a "I'm the best, I'll kick everybody's ass and I don't need anyone's help, I'm a god, I can take on the world on my own" kind of person and she is a power crazy darkin so it does fit. She is saying something like "oh dude I could TOTALLY solo every single darkin! Aatrox? Pffff! I could beat Aatrox with one hand but daaaaamn this aspect of twilight! Well I guess I can't really fight them now BUT if not for this pesky aspect, dude! I would totally win trust me. She practically saved them!" It's kind of like if I said "dude I could totally beat Goku". Naafiri does give off that kind of vibe, at least to me.

Honestly, I took the dogs eating the dagger as a consequence of her decision to call to them instead of to the man carrying her. I've always kind of imagined the Darkin has a minor amount of influence over the people around them... allowing them to persuade more hesitant individuals to becoming their hosts. So, when she called to the hounds, she influenced them to seek power they didn't even know existed... and they took it greedily and happily.

Personally also not a fan of how they treated the Darkin weapon as something that can break, BUT it opens up a very interesting new avenue as to why other Darkin weapons haven't been broken: If each piece of the weapon acts as a conduit into the Darkin's mind (and to slip under their control), chances are that a Darkin split over many many pieces would just either reassemble their weapon - assuming their power gets weaker, the more they are split - or that the Darkin would just take over an entire country with their own hivemind, by breaking themself into more and more parts. Could be an interesting way to take a potential Darkin (in LoR or something), where the entire gimmick is that they're a hivemind of a lot of people, that got dominated because they all have a tiny shard of the original weapon on their body somewhere.

I think you have a misconception about Darkin weapon. Those weapons aren't "un-DMG able", but "indestructible". Part of weapon is made literally by Darkin's FLESH, you can look at Aatrox sword with a beating heart, Raast and Naafiri have eye with flesh around it. It had been said Aatrox blade and Raast can change their side, big/small at will. Darkin weapon can be damaged, but because it made with Darkin flesh, the regeneration will never stop.

Doesn't matter how hungry dogs are, they WON'T eat a pipe of metal (remember that the sword the guy used to defend didn't get eaten). They eat Naafiri blade because the flesh, and if you look at Naafiri, the whole blade still there, intact inside pack mother's skull.

I think when she says that she almost led the Darkin it is her pride speaking. Its most likely what most of the darkin thought in their hubris. I think this is true because this isnt a narrarator in the 3rd person(an all knowing narrarator) , but a narrarator in the first person(Naafiri) whom has certain biases. Her real strenght is to be determined

12:57 to me that part just feels like ego on Naafiri’s part, she sees herself as one of, if not the most powerful darkin.

I think you misunderstood the "powerful darkin", that is just Naafiri puffing up herself, all the darkin do that... Rhaast does that. And her being able to take multiple hosts... it is more because of the hosts' own peculiar physiology than her power, Varus technically has two hosts and them being human they can together influence him, which means more than one host is too much for Drakins, Naafiri got influenced too... but in a more primal way. To me the story clearly tells that Naafiri isn't even close to being as competent or powerful as she thinks she is, he tentative to use the hounds to make the person carrying her make a mistake misfired, and she got fused with animals, and because there are too many her mind got influenced.

From what I gather, the only Darkin "truly" able to control multiple host bodies simultaneously seems to be Aatrox. Xolaani absolutely loses herself in the Aspect-bane form if I remember my LoR card descriptions right, and Aatrox just brute forces his way through hosts and essentially "burns" up their bodies WAY quicker than the other Darkin. I guess you could make a case for Xolaani being ultimately as powerful as Aatrox in that regard, because she is the one who invented the bloodmagic in the first place. Doesn't necessarily mean she perfected it, but definitely does give her an edge.

The thing I'd like was to see was a darkin with the weapon of Old Aatrox, something similar to the weapon of Ivy from Soul Calibur franchise. Xolaani could be an user of that weapon.

Darkin (Ascended) vs Void rematch? The year that I seem to recall that Bel’Veth claimed she would give the world a bit of hope since she thinks nothing can stop her anyways. Darkin unites (something that might be unthinkable according to Bel’Veth) and fights back the void to save the world (but for their own reason, perhaps to take dominion over it for themselves?).

I think it makes sense, calling her one of the more powerful ones, as shurima had a lot of god warriors. Even speculating that one General or however they were called, led a hundred, that would leave space for dozens of strong individuals that could work as powerful champions or even important characters in general.

I haven't been this existed for a character since Xayah and Rakan, which was a while ago. I do not understand why as well since I am not a huge fan of ad assassin midlaners (I main adc, so I actually quite resent them). It's something about her aesthetics and lore that exite me so much.

It would’ve been cooler if she was actually a weaker Darkin who already had experience using blood magic to make smaller versions of herself and the pack enhanced that in a surprising way for her. Like she had looked down on animals, but experiencing the minds and thoughts of pack animals made her go, “oh, this is so much better.”
