On September 22, Riot Games revealed the highly anticipated League of Legends World Championship anthem, “STAR WALKIN’,” featuring Lil Nas X. However, the song did not live up to the intense competitive energy that the tournament embodies. Some Reddit users took it upon themselves to improve the anthem and make it more exciting for the fans.
One Redditor, u/v-23, shared a post on the League of Legends subreddit shortly after the premiere of “STAR WALKIN’.” In their post, they created a video that combined the visuals from the anthem with the audio from the beloved 2014 Worlds anthem “Warriors” by Imagine Dragons. According to them, this edit added the much-needed excitement and pizzazz that was missing from the 2022 anthem. The post has already garnered 9,100 upvotes, and its popularity continues to rise.
The reason behind this edit lies in the community’s unwavering love for “Warriors.” Not only is it considered one of the best Worlds anthems ever composed, but it also perfectly captures the hype and excitement that fans expect from these songs.
