Volibear, The Relentless Storm | Champion Theme - League of Legends

This war-hymn of the Ursine appears to be a fragment of the much longer poem ‘Ode to Ruin,’ dating back to before the War of the Three Sisters. While some of the original words have no direct translation, the intent behind them is abundantly clear…
The sky rumbles deeply, knowing him,
As the thunder calls out “Valhir!”
A memory of ancient and faded glory
Beckon from ages past, ever near
Vorrijaard calls you!
And the wild heart within,
By tooth, and with claw, will return!
When Vorrijaard needs you
To answer the call,
Rise now! Together we stand tall!
The ground trembles deeply, awaiting him
The wind howls, carrying the reek of iron,
And earth, starved for centuries, shall soon drink
The rains of war another time
Vorrijaard calls you!
And the wild heart within,
By tooth, and with claw, will return!
When Vorrijaard needs you
To answer the call,
Rise now! Together we stand tall!

I now have a viking beard after listening to this.

Imagine if only login screens were actually still a thing.

Pantheon's theme : feels like I got the strength of 1000 men Volibear's theme : feels like I got the strength of 1 bear who got the strength of 1000 men
-
It really makes you feel like a bear.
-
It reminds me about the login screens... miss those badly, added so much flavour
-
His theme is soo... glorious...
-
I'm just realising we're probably getting another banger like this for Udyr's rework
-
”A THOUSAND SCARS! WHAT IS ONE MORE?”

The demon I just summoned: "What're you doing?" Me: "Trying to sing the new theme for The Volibear"

[The English lyrics are in the description, but here’s the direct pronunciation!] Teimir, himnir, rømnur kendirheim åskanda en helt, Valhirr æn vinde var on melter jeðir frón kalhirr ásþisk fjerner mjaer Vorrijaard kalhirr, veltur vé hertnås Se tånhåg meg króna tyrr Van Vorrijaard, bæoft, bæs marka lån nær isåg vír saman, vír stak Teimir jørður rønmen tí vetirhiem os jørnår heilt vindrings, spaldnid jor kónger hon ærer skaldreinhorr regnås stremnor rei evaasist. Vorrijaard kalhirr, veltur vé hertnås Se tånhåg meg króna tyrr Van Vorrijaard, bæoft, bæs marka lån nær isåg vír saman, vír stak Edit: Many people have asked which language this is. The language itself is technically Freljordian which is a mixture of mostly Norwegian and bit of Icelandic, I believe. While some words might have a direct translation to a Scandinavian language, the dialect is purely fictional.

League of Legends' music might legitimately be the best part of the game, in a good way
-
They had us in the first stream, not gonna lie
-
As a person who lives in the north of sweden i can prove that this is how we speak
-
Compared to other concept art, I can tell everyone in the art team had very different ideas of how they saw Volibear. It had to be really hard to choose one, cause all of them look siiiiiiiick
-
Never thought I'd see something as good as Pantheons Theme
-
the animated login screens were the best thing ever, the whole community is frustrated because we DONT havE it anymore
-
Love this champion. My sister met Einar a couple of times and has his name tattooed in runes on her forearm, so she went nuts when she found this song :)

Listening to this during a storm makes it even better
