Hello, I've been watching your content for a while. While I quit League a long time ago I still hold partial interest to Runeterra's lore, (such as it is) . In particular I really enjoy Bilgewater in general as well as Illaoi and Ezreal as individual characters and I've enjoyed your takes on said things. (Also fuck Demacia) And I wanted to ask you, after so much dissillussionment from Riot's content, in particular from the latest "cinematic" , how they have always prioritized e-sports and skins over actually giving the lore a proper direction and conclusion or how Legends of Runeterra is getting downsized and unlikely to last much longer, why do you still do League content? You are clearly very critical of a lot of the decisions the higher ups do that affect the output of artists and writers in charge of Runeterra's universe and character designs. And there has not been much sign of improvement since a lot of your points. It's like screaming into a brick wall at this point, so why not move on?
Why not spend your time on something that doesn't lead its fans along with empty promises, breaking them, promising to do better next time and then repeating the cycle all over again for years like an abusive relationship. Beyond doing it because it's what you're most well known for, why stick with content that you know will keep disappointing you?
I'm glad you are diversifying your content but I personally feel your passion for art, animation and writing analysis would be better spent away from League and into more games beyond that (in particularly really liked your take on "Despite everything, it's still you" from Undertale). The indie scene in particular is chock full of incredible and unique takes in terms of character design and narratives I'm sure you will enjoy. League is clearly not worth the time for people who are into the lore, art and setting of videogames anymore. I hope I wasn't too personal or intrusive with my question. Cheers.
So that's a very long question. I'll start with the short and cynical answer:
I am doing League of Legends content because that is what my audience wants, and that is what makes me most of my money.
My channel is a League of Legends channel primarily, the algorithm likes it and pushes it that way, and League of Legends is an absolutely enormous intellectual property with an absolutely enormous player base, which means there's a big audience for my content about the game. A large audience means more engagement, means more ad revenue, more sponsorship opportunities, more subscribers, and so on and so on.
That's the cynical part of the answer. I don't want to sidestep it with some guff about "being passionate about the subject," because the truth of my job is that it is a job. I'm not sailing freely on the oceans of creative impulse pursuing my bliss, I'm trying to pay my rent and my pets veterinarian bills and pay down loans and have enough left over to help my friends when they need it.
I approach this job much the same way I approached being a freelance illustrator - having passion for the subject is a nice bonus, but you don't always need it to do good and valuable work.
And with the cynicism out of the way... I also just genuinely love the fucking League of Legends universe. With all its many, many stupid flaws and its garbage corpo owner and its years of systematic neglect and the constant disappointment, god help me, I still love this stupid shit. And when management gets out of the way and lets the good writers at Riot be good at their goddamn jobs, amazing things can happen.
The Ashe: Warmother comic is still such a beautiful short narrative work, with such visual verve and empathy for the characters it's depicting.

It zeroes in so acutely on the idea that Ashe and Sejuani are shaped by their difficult relationships with their mothers, and that THAT is ultimately the difference that drives them apart when they should by rights have had the chance to be sisters. When they become warmothers of their own tribes, it is the memory of their mothers that drive them, and just as the Freljord is divided by generations of strife engineered by Lissandra, the matriarch of the whole region, that generational trauma resonates into Ashe and Sejuani and sets them against each other.
Or Ekko's short story, where he has been accepted to the fancy Piltover academy that's supposed to be his golden ticket out of poverty, his chance to escape Zaun, everything his parents have worked their whole lives to give him, and...
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Like, FUCK, you can't just invent these silly cartoon muppets to throw at each each other in your dumb MOBA beat 'em up and then give them INTERIORITY like this??? Apply their silly cartoon powers in way that explores their emotional difficulties and works thematically with their internal philosophies?
god dammit I love this stupid game's universe, I cannot be saved, leave me and go before it infects you too!

Fighting Games News Roundup
EVO Japan 2024 ended just a while ago, and we got a bunch of hype announcements out of it. Here is a compilation of all the news.
Characters:
youtube
Marco Rodrigues was revealed for Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves. I was sure he would be in, but as a fan of Kyokugen I was happy to see him. The snappy art style for this game has evolved into something wonderful. Also check out the English dub for Marco.
youtube
Slayer got his reveal trailer for Guilty Gear Strive. He was already confirmed earlier but the trailer is a real treat. They have done a lot to make him look awesome. The special UNIVERSE! counter is especially sublime. Also check out the English dub for Slayer.
youtube
Akuma got his gameplay trailer for Street Fighter 6. Akuma was announced a year ago with the season pass, and he's finally coming. I was still not expecting how absolutely terrifying he looks here. The new Shun Goku Satsu is possibly the best ever seen.
Lidia Sobieska was announced at the end of the Tekken 8 Season 1 trailer as the next upcoming fighter.
Ninomae Ina'nis got her reveal trailer for Idol Showdown Next Fes, the upcoming version of the free Hololive fighting game.
Games
EVO Japan 2024 had playable demos for the following upcoming games:
Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves
2XKO (including Illaoi)
HUNTERxHUNTER NENxIMPACT
youtube
We finally got a proper look at HUNTERxHUNTER NENxIMPACT. Although the graphics leave much to be desired, the gameplay seems to be a return to Marvel vs Capcom style hyper fighting, which has left the community very enthusiastic about this game.
youtube
The arcade company exA-Arcadia is collaborating with game developers to revive old fighting games. You can check out all the trailers on their channel. Some highlights are Chaos Code NEXT by FK Digital finally getting a release, and a new entry in the game series that arguably pioneered anime/airdash fighters, Asuka 120%.
youtube
As mentioned before, Idol Showdown is getting another version with new mechanics, new assist characters and a new playable character.

Inktober Day 22: Ghost
 I swear I almost didn't make it. Chose a champ I'm fond of because I thought it would make it easier. It did not. This how I feel when I dun sling that E at folks and steal their souls out.  
I made it, I made it past the previous years 22 days in a row of inktober. I have achieved. I also just had my first drink in a month. I did good.
