Good song but it feels like so much of the screentime is dedicated to showing Linkin Park. Feels like its more a music video for them than it does for worlds.

Feels like its more a music video for them

It is.

It's Linkin Park's official music video for their new song from their upcoming album.,

[u/rebelstand → u/andehh_]

Congratulations to Linkin Park for being S13 World Champion

[u/Artemis96 → u/rebelstand]

Feels like its more a music video for them than it does for worlds.

It by definition is a music video. The title says "Official Music Video".

[u/HorrorOne837 → u/larswo]

He meant it feels like an MV for LP, not worlds

[u/andehh_ → u/[deleted]]

Its the version you upload on the Linkin Park channel, not the version you upload on the League of Legends channel.

[u/ItsKaZing → u/[deleted]]

Not really, Take over, GODS, Rise and Phoenix is how you should do worlds video. Hell even Starwalking is better than this weird ass Linkin Park glaze video

[u/Threshstolemywife → u/ItsKaZing]

its the official MV for the song, there's no way they dont demand some screentime

[u/frank38889 → u/[deleted]]

Well,as a Chinese speaker, I can tell you that redditors aren't the only ones complaining about this. Some people on the Chinese forum even said it was "a piece of shit"

[u/urban287 → u/frank38889]

Korean comments are hilarious "Why does the ending feel like my shit has been cut off midway?"

[u/frank38889 → u/urban287]

LMAO

[u/NotFBI555 → u/[deleted]]

This is a worlds song not linkin park. I get you're super butt hurt that your favourite band is getting criticised but trust me nobody cares about them. We care about a good storyline not your band members taking all the spotlight lol

[u/Shadowsw4w → u/[deleted]]

its not small minded at all to have riot runing like such a great piece of narrative with this shitty AMV,This AMV make me want to give congratz to linkin park for winning league world 2023

[u/Haoszen → u/[deleted]]

Let's say that's because LP needs every bit of spotlight they can get.

[u/ihave0idea0 → u/Haoszen]

They totally have no drama with a new person that joined...

[u/urban287 → u/[deleted]]

Shouldnt be

[u/urban287 → u/[deleted]]

Why should it be? None of the others were. We're not here for a Linkin Park music video. We're here to celebrate worlds and the players. The LP scenes take away spotlight and time that should have been on the players and moments.

and I say that as a massive LP fan.

It will always be a LP music video, it doesnt need to have animated versions of the band in there for no reason.

[u/Teemowneds → u/[deleted]]

Brother Linkin park rn needs league more than league needs washed up LP cmon

[u/superninjax → u/[deleted]]

It's jarring. I'm not a LP fan and it's extremely jarring, feels like every other worlds anthem cinematic is just better because of this.

[u/superninjax → u/[deleted]]

Sure.

[u/Heliosyntax → u/[deleted]]

What the fuck are you even talking about? Do you even understand the criticism being made? People want a music video that honors the story of Faker and T1 and the insane Worlds run that they made last year with all the narratives that come with it. Do you seriously, genuinely think people would be okay with giving that up because "well um maybe this band can get League some new players in NA!"? Look at all the Korean comments under the video. They're fucking livid. Are you gonna tell them they deserve less?

If League is dying (it isn't) and Worlds is declining (it isn't) why the fuck is their solution hiring some fucking band and giving them so much screen time in a video that should be focused on ONE THING and ONE THING ONLY, celebrating Worlds?

[u/Upstairs-Birthday-43 → u/urban287]

Seriously relax dude. Linkin Park is making this the official MV for their song, which will help reach some new audiences.

[u/Upstairs-Birthday-43 → u/urban287]

Also Naz X was in his video.

[u/urban287 → u/Upstairs-Birthday-43]

and it was even worse there. Whats your point?

If its a gotcha to me saying we havent had them before, fine. Okay. The worst one had it. Great.

[u/Upstairs-Birthday-43 → u/urban287]

Also Imagine Dragons was in the stuff for Arcane

[u/urban287 → u/Upstairs-Birthday-43]

Not a worlds anthem, and they worked them into the setting so it was fine and wasnt as out of place.

Again. Here we're taking time away from the achievements of the players and the storylines of the tournament.

[u/Upstairs-Birthday-43 → u/urban287]

Half the video was about T1. Fucking Caps got a shit ton of screen time and tbf G2 isnt making it to Top 8. Ill be impressed if G2 manages to beat either Fly or TL at this point.

[u/Alchemic_AUS → u/Upstairs-Birthday-43]

Why are you bringing up imagine dragons for the arcane song???? Do you not know the difference between worlds and arcane? Why don’t you mention the ACTUAL WORLDS SONG they did which doesn’t feature them. Get out of here.
