    Yeah I went into it completely blind. Never played LoL but the animation style looked cool, so I’ll just check an episode for the animation.

    And damn it was a well written. The only flaws were scenes where suddenly a dude has a hammer weapon, and it was like “where did that come from… oh yeah this is based on a video game so that’s probably his signature weapon in the game.” So they had to put it in there. But there were only a couple of things like that and it’s a really minor nitpick. And we can’t expect them to make LoL show without throwing a few bones to LoL fans, right?

    Yeah it really doesn’t make sense how good that show is.

      Yeah, they had to get in the obligatory scene of Jayce using the hammer just to keep up the pretence that this was in any way connected to LoL. Ditto Vi popping the bubble shield, IIRC.

      On the other hand, the way they incorporated Jinx’s ult? Oh my God. Chef’s kiss. Flawless.
