New LOL championship Music

             With the League of Legends (also known as LOL or League) Group stages behind us and the finals approaching Riot games has collaborated with the band Imagine Dragons to create a song titled "Warriors" for this special occasion. In an artical by Jason Moth called  "League of Legends Championship gets epic new music video and song composed by Imagine Dragons" Jason talks about how the video is vastly different form all other League music videos. This new music video is the first video that focuses on the players and not on the champions (the in game characters that people play as). Jason went on to talk about how the video communicates how the players feel about being on the stage and having 16 other teams working to keep you from winning $2,000,000.  
              I very much agree with what Jason had to say about this video. Riot has never made a music video on the players of league and it is very interesting to see especially since few ever actually think about the professional players. It was also very interesting to hear that Imagine Dragons had made a song for League and that they are longtime fans of the game. Above all though is that this was a very good song and an even better video that did its job and made many who heard it want to watch the games.
