With Leds in his eyes I think he means the fact that Shen appears with no pupils in the comic
ah! I was thinking like LEDs the screens. (And was assuming some text to speech error had occured)
His eyes still have pupils but they are glowing white with the energy inside of him. When he connects to his power he can see the spirit realm on top of our world. Look out for the tales of runeterra short.
Every time you mention Yevnai, a kitten dies.
Actually, I'm quite allergic to cats.
Sooo...
Yevnai! Yevnai! YEVNAI!
;)
Man this gave me so much chills. Crazy memories. What a good weekend we're gonna have!
Read moreHello Mr Odin! I Loved the comic even with those little artistic fails detail's ( like Shen having an undercut and then having none. We loved the undercut so much!!!)
I'm shy but I'm adventuring this time to write, in the hopes you sir at least just read this. I'm a lore fan, soon to be 30yo. Since I'm playing LoL I've loved the lore and I can say you're one of my favorite writer's at riot.
I will try to summarize my comment 1- the end with Zed and Kayn touched something in me, I'll elaborate, I've always tough that Kusho was a bad father, but for being negligent towards Shen in favor of Zed, not for being a abusive paternal figure to both! Less to Zed maybe. And the end confirming it, but... Making Zed grown up past the abuse he received from kusho, and even with his mistakes, Zed trying to be a better father figure to kayn make me cry a lot like I haven't done in time, I was abused at my 15yo in my search of a replacement of a paternal figure, because my dad died...
Thank you so much. I am glad to hear the story resonated with you. And I'm terribly saddened to hear you experienced abuse. (But I'm glad therapy is helping you and that you had the courage to engage with proffesional help!)
Please know that reaching people like you, is always the real goal of my writing.
In every story, I am hoping that I am being honest and that I am not alone. And hidden between the lines of any story, I am whispering and screaming to reader... that you are not alone either.
"You are not alone."
Because you're not alone. None of us are. Knowing other people have experienced similar pains. Have made similar mistakes, or suffered similar injustices, is a strength.
Knowing other people have seen and felt things like you... means knowing empathy is out there, and that healing is possible.
Thank you so much for kind words... and for taking the time to send them.
-Odin
Read moreHello, If I am sorry, I would really like to know how to speak correctly. In my region there are no rioters involved or who care to answer these things. What I said is personal, I don't want to make anyone feel bad. Okay, now I understand some things more, I like your explanations. Regarding Zed and his friendship, the only thing that Shen obtained was Jhin (and that surely escapes 1000 times more) The fact that Zed says that he will kill him seems excessive and makes no sense, Shen only gave him good things. Hopefully they treat Shen better, I am seriously thinking that she is the saddest and most unhappy character in the game. I feel like your relationship is like this--> https://imgur.com/nycGZnG I understand about yevnai, everything was summed up and was open to misinterpretation. It seemed strange to me, you know? It doesn't change my image of zed if you put that character on or off of the history, Zed and his friendship with shen was e...
Stupid questions ps: Shen has a mother?
y.
Are the Leds in your eyes always on? Huh?
Akali still wants to kill Zed? Probably.
Where's Jhin? Oh he is still jail. Wait.... what's today's date? Uh... hard to say... probably in jail.
Hey folks - we're going to be delivering a mission to grant 140 tokens with an objective of "Play 1 game." We don't want to swap out the existing mission because that would cause players to lose progress, so adding another mission to grant the extra tokens is the best approach.
Sorry for the headache in the meantime. We're grateful for your feedback and patience during this bumpy transition from working in our HQ to working from home. Unfortunately, some things slipped through the cracks, but we appreciate the hell out of you and are working aggressively to fix these issues.
The 140 token mission should be live sometime next week.
Ender is the best part of the LEC.
Edit: the LEC broadcast team.

HAHAAA YESSS I KNEW HE DID IT ON PURPOSE IN THE FINAL FIGHT! Such a relief to hear it officially though. I asked this on a different thread but if you dont mind answering, who would win in an all-out fight between Zed and Shen? It was stated many times both in comics and in the comment section that Zed was holding back, but what if he wasnt? Has he completely surpassed Shen, or are they equals?
I think they're equals... and because they trained together they know a lot of each other's techniques and fighting styles. (not all but they had the same foundation... hence the panel where they land in the same pose.) . I also think it would be hard for both of them not to hold back. And I think they respect each other too much to use traps or dirty tricks. So I feel like a "fair fight" would probably be decided by the battlefield or situation. This is just spitballing... but if Zed was protecting Kayn.. I'd bet on him winning... but ditto for Shen defending Akali. So.. shrug.
Read moreI loved the comic with all my heart, even though the Kusho part was kinda cliche- it very much took me off guard!
I dunno if you will anwser this but- I don't mind if you don't!Both Zed and Kayn are my most favourite champs ever, lore wise, design wise, game wise.. everything. I really love how you portrayed them in Zed's perspective and I know Zed isn't a "hero", hes done a lot of horrible things but as he said, most men have. Especially growing up in a war torn land and witnessing all those dreadful things at such a young age, I don't blame Zed for the way he thinks, that doesn't make him good or "justified", but it definitely doesn't make him a completely bad person.
Although I love the whole badass facade Zed gives off a lot.. I was really hoping that by the end of the comic Zed and Shen could have at least remained allies. I understand where you were trying to go with Zed- and I understand with the circumstances it would be very hard for Zed to rema...
I think in a small way Zed and Shen's relationship did heal. They did work together which indirectly sets a precedent that they could work together in the future. For instance, if the world was in trouble.. or if Yevnai was in trouble or one of her sons got in trouble.. I kinda feel like Shen and Zed would put there feud on hold again. And I think in a way they both know that now. (in part because Shen DIDN'T kill Zed when he had the chance... and because Zed DID keep his word to Shen.) Baby steps.
I'm not sure about Akali and Kayn. And don't know any plans for them. But I do think an interesting buddy story could be told with the two of them having to team up.
Read moreHello, I like the comic but I have been disappointed a little bit in some things ... 1) the cliche. I hate edgys protagonists with unlimited powers that are invincible and are cool in everything. Before the comic, Zed scared me, now he is a fantastic hero that everyone loves. If he's ruthless or extreme, none of that was seen in the comic. Please, if you have an idea don't change it, I would have liked to see Zed killing vastayas. Even if everything remained the same, that scene would have made a huge difference. 2) Currently Shen should be on the verge of suicide, because committing suicide is what I would do if everyone abandons me and if the only person I trust lies to me non-stop (and Zed says that maybe will kill him WTF) expected that Shen and Zed be friends again, or that reestablishes the confidence of both, or something different. Why did all this happen without anything changing between them? Zed used Shen to capture Jhin, he did the same thing that Kusho did to him, us...
This is a bit hard to read... but I totally get english is your second language. However I suggest trying to use paragraph breaks in the future, as this really hard to read in one big block
---
I'm not sure I think Zed l lying to Shen was really a choice... and possibly it was the right thing to do. Even if Shen knew the truth, Zed and Shen are on different paths now. They will never be friends again... but Zed was still holding onto a false hope.
Zed decided it was better for him to be disillusioned with Zed than for Shen to be disillusioned with his own father. That's probably not fair, and maybe Shen has a right to know. But Zed is flawed... and blinded by his need to feel he's worthy and honorable.
Shen I think is a tragic figure in this comic... but that's because this is Zed's view of him. And Zed's view is clouded by guilt. Shen, I would argue did his homework... and knew what he was capable of and importantly knew where his em...

DRAKOS! Why no beard? Now there is no representation for beards on the LEC broadcast team.
Its already in the process of regrowing, I'll be fully bearded again in two weeks.
Who is the owner of the cute dog?
Her name is Appa, she is a little over a year old :D Samoyed is the breed and @Appathecloud on Instagram.
It's like they decided to get the best team from each region, and then there was a Fnatic fan on the board.
edit: in this thread; Fnatic fans getting salty over a joke. And honestly, Fnatic are not winning the finals. Well deserved second place coming up.
Fnatic is ahead of G2 in playoffs
Just want to ask two questions I sent to you in message.
Would you say Zed guestimation during the fight to be factually correct? That Kusho had only dabble in Shadow Magic for a few months?
When was the flashback panel where Zed told Kayn to get close to their patron, in relative to the event we observed? My guess is somewhere in issue 1 2, but was it before or after Jhin attack?
Not entirely... he was guessing and kinda being intentionally insulting But he was correct that Kusho hadn't trained for as long as him.
Issue 1.
Hey Odin, loved the series overall. I think its the strongest out of any of the series so far. Could I ask why you decided to sorta reign in Akali a bit, since the way Michael left off with Akali, it looked like she was kinda done with the Kinkou and their complacency. And as a side note, are you able to share what you're going to be doing next since it'd be dope if you can work on another champ
Well.... in one issue. Akali had as many pages as Zed. She was a lot more fun to write than Zed. ( I actually only got into writing as a comedy writer, and it's still the most rewarding.)
I almost rewrote the whole series with her as the lead. But didn't...
I think, like the idea of Akali being a slighty younger character than Michae'sl version... and a bit more snarky and lower class.. My wife read a draft with alotta Akali and just said that Akali was very much me in my early twenties... And that made the idea if making Akali the lead feel... not exactly wrong... but self-serving rather than audience focused. (Shrug) It was an odd choice to make.
Who sets the page limit, and why?
Can you tell us about ratings restrictions scenes?
Also, why does Zed still have it out for the vastaya? I mean, everyone seems to love Ahri and her fluffy ears and tails.
And isn't the black ink a natural byproduct of harvesting magic, kind of like nuclear waste is a byproduct of nuclear energy?
Is there a reason that Zed insists on being a grouch to vastaya in the current day and age?
Marvel. 20pages.
Mostly just people Jhin killed (dead bodies) or people Zed and Kayn Killed (dead bodies). Even dead bodies are difficult with our age restrictions. This is a non-technical answer but in my experience at riot for some things we are pg13 but for most things we are PG max.
The ichor is a natural byproduct of harvesting (and damning) magic. It's not exactly like nuclear energy. Diffused the magic is strong and just sort of neutral. It's gonna do strange stuff... that's mostly just strange. Trying to force it or limit it into "good" and helpful magic means you end up with a negative or evil byproduct.
