I'd like to thank every emo / hardcore / pop punk band that led us to this moment. I always thought my first love song would be about a former SO, but here I am writing about the best ADC in EU. XD

When we were doing research for the image we wanted to create, he was someone that showed up. Letter to Ashley was a great inspiration for what we wanted to make!

Very curious about development of this type of content. Do the three of you spearhead this? Just curious where the ideas come from. Obviously takes a long time to produce?

We made this in about 3 weeks. It was an idea Vedius and I had, we worked with Riot Mooncake, an absolutely incredible producer, to bring the idea to life. Vedi and I wrote the lyrics and worked with a production partner to compose the song. Huge team effort, Vedi and I are super lucky to get to work with a production team as good as the LEC's

Did u guys also played the instruments? If so i want a live performance at the spring finals, you guys are actually too good. Much love<3

Haha nah. Drakos and I really wanted to but it would take way too long to do that + write lyrics, so we hired a company that we've used before the write the music (instant waves). We made some changes, I wrote the solo that you hear and Drakos + I write all the lyrics.

I can play it on guitar though, it's pretty straight forward!

I mentioned this in another comment but we hire a company called Instant Waves to write the actual music for us. They've done that for a lot of our other songs too. It would take too long for us to write and edit a song from scratch. I can play it on guitar though!

It's also Ender, not Medic ;)

Tell me it was inspired by BFMV

Was inspired by the song I'm Not Okay by My Chemical Romance ;)

Very important question, Spotify when?

It's already on spotify chief. We have a great producer!

So you're saying there's a chance?

Honestly? I would love to sing that infront of a live crowd and have a stadium of people all screaming BACKSTABBED BETRAYED.

Shit would be lit.

If Quickshot can be taught to scream you could get a pretty dope Beauty and the Beast style symphonic metal band from that!

I'm down. Andy, Drakos. Sign me up.

This is so lit, I was expecting another legacy titles kings promo and Im sitting here hit with this.

LEC production strikes back "lcs has cooler songs" - yeah not anymore, suck it up Quickshot!(was it him?). If this doesn't replace the silver scrapes when G2 FNC goes to 5 games in playoffs I riot.

To be very very clear - when I said LCS has better music in PGL it was the ad break music, the champ select music the general show music. Not the music videos we produce as supplementary content.
