You know, I'm not really into animated shows or movies.
I play many games but League of Legends isn't something I'm interested in.
**When I saw this on Netflix, I thought "well not for me".
Boy, was I wrong.**
After reading many articles, I decided I should give it a try and launched the first episode.
And the second, and the third and so on and on.
I was blown away. I am still blown away.
The story is great, and far reaching. **I know nothing of league of legends, didn't need to.**
The setting, this steampunk/victorian/magical world is so unique.
The characters are full of life, full of emotions, doubts. They are not empty shells but full on humans/humanoids. More so than many live-action characters.
The **graphics and animation** are the most amazing I've had the pleasure to witness. I mean, **every scene is grandiose**. Like moving paintings. What a feast for the eyes.
And last (but not least), **the music is perfect**. The main title by imagine dragons is on point, and the score complements the story so well. Case in point, many scenes don't have any dialogue, the animation and the score being sufficient.
Emotions are high at the end, I can't wait for what's in store next year.

Please, please, please, do watch it. Even if games are not your things, even if League of Legends isn't. Even if animated video aren't.
**Watch it.**

Never played league of legends, know nothing about the characters. In fact, to be honest, I was a bit prejudiced against this show. I thought "It's based on a game, It must suck". A few months after it ended I saw it has a rating of 90+% on Trakt. And however subjective ratings are, you don't get scores north of 90% if you're shit, so I decided to check it out.

Was not disappointed. This is the best work of art I've seen in the last several years. The animation is stellar. You could pause it on almost every frame and set it as your desktop wallpaper. This is not an exaggeration. Almost every frame looks like it could have been painted by an artist. The voice acting is phenomenal, the expressiveness of the characters is spot on.

In terms of story, I only saw 5 episodes so far, so take it with a grain of salt, but I think there are many storytelling tropes here that people would find familiar. However, this is by no means a bad thing. Story-telling tropes exist for a reason - they make good stories. You only need to do them right. And this show does. There were too many modern shows and movies that tried to "SuBvErT eXpEcAtIoNs" just to fall on their face.

To summarize, I'm not one to give 10/10 ratings lightly, but I think it's completely deserved.

great a and stylish action, beautiful story arc , with great resolution and one the best antagonist , breathtakingly imagery. The story handles the burden of setting up game characters beautifully, not coming off as a series needed to put unnecessary character to setup game character, except victor part seems to comes out of nowhere, though the two main character and their story chef's kiss . 9/10

The production team has worked real hard to make something worth the money they were given. The characters are well drawn. And the animation is okay. The effort is obvious seeing the catch lights that are on any character, regardless of lighting.

The story is rather boring, and uniform. Stealing is good. Capitalists are bad. Magic exists. It's all a mess. So far Netflix has released only three episodes, and the idea is how good it is to have people live on taxes. Don't worry little serf, your offspring will have a beautiful life thanks to the taxes you paid.

So much better than Dragon's Blood.
Characters are more interesting and the story is more immersive.
Voices are good too. Plus creative animation.
