Oh. My. Lord.
First of all, this is so cool. We're finally getting a darkin champion again, and it's a real monster this time. There are loads of parallels to norse mythology in this one, particularly to Fenrir and Ragnarok. We've been in the Disney champion category for a while (which I don't really have a problem with), but it's super nice having something to balance it out.
Her voice over is perfect IMO, it fits like a glove. I can't wait to see her kit, even though she'll be a jungler, allegedly, which I rarely play.
I think two different dashes and a move speed buff on their ult. They just dropped the ability rundown and champion insights, if I remember in the morning I’ll drop a link.

Really liked the soundtrack in the trailer too, slight Doom vibes.
After the ruination fiasco i couldn't care less for the cinematics anymore. Just a bunch of eyecandy that will give hints to a lore that has been fragmented and bent for their marketing purposes...

Just a bunch of eyecandy that will give hints to a lore that has been fragmented and bent for their marketing purposes till it became nonsense.
The fact that they're meddling with some of my favourite parts of the lore with this cinematic makes me worried about some of my favourite champions, can't wait for jax to remove his mask just to reveal the face of a kpop artist underneath.
Have you watched this cinematic? What aspects do you think they handled poorly? I am not super well-versed in the darkin lore, I mostly only read Ionian stuff, so I'm curious.

Are you excited? What do you think?
I'm imagining it'll be a ganking jungler similar to kayn but not sure what sort of movement abilities they could give it.

I just looked it up and holy fuck it looks cool. It's mad how they can still create unique concepts with all the champions already out there. https://www.leagueoflegends.com/en-us/event/naafiri-abilities-rundown/
It was stated somewhere that they'll stop making new champions at some point. It think that won't happen until all Darkins are released.
League and Magic the Gathering both foster a deep love of mine regarding kickass playable non-humanoid or high-concept characters, and both similarly have lead designers frequently come out and say "nope, our market research says people don't like this. We're not making more. nuh-uh. really sorry."
Then they do some shit like this and it slaps. iunno man.
An actual quadruped champion? Fingers crossed that she(?) doesn't turn humanoid like Bel'Veth...
She looks like a canine version of Rek'sai, so I'm hopeful
