Karthus New VO And Sounds

HUGE thanks to our member Energetic_Fuzion for transcribing the sounds and VOs!!!

NOTE: NOT ALL OF THESE ARE 100% ACCURATE.

Ill bring your name in my little black necronomicon.
Do you have a moment to talk about death?
Whats the incantation again, it' s been oh right, uhm. 
Listen mortals, I speak the word of my cook book.
Dear Diary, met a wonderful ghoul today.
Sorry I am booked through *mumbles* forever.
Urgot, mmm.. I highly recommend death at this point.
I will shred your body and burn your soul.
Your death will be excruciating. 
Life clings like a parasite to the soul.
The song of your life will be brief.
to feel the cores of death for the first time, I envy you.
You deceive your followers, I will enlighten them.
Deaths horse needs no bridal.
You are but the herald, hecarim, remember who you truly serve.
Your light is but a candle in the infinite dark.
Lucian, join her.
Abandon your mortality and find your precious Senna.
You can always join her, lucian, it will be bliss.
You give the death purpose mordekaiser, I give them meaning.
Shallow flesh or shallow metal, both bring hollow.
Sion, we must free your soul from the prison of flesh.
You are only the echo of greatness, but I can give you a voice again.
Death has more meaning than a torment alone, 
you may shackle the living but the dead must walk free.
Abomination, you have cheated death too long.
You are of the eve of liberation varus,
Silence ground walker,
Die for metal.
Join me in this duet of demise.
It's time to wake the dead.
Lights out, forever.
*Singing* YEAAAAAAAAAAAH YEAAAAAAAAAAH WOAHHHHHH When the going gets tough, the tough get a death cap.
What have I done? Created beauty by simply rocking, thats all.
What is that sound? It's the pounding of creations hammer, on the anvil of time.
Metal is the only heartbeat I need.
End it up?
tower diver, gotta get away, get away.
We totally topped the charts in the freljord, 
death is blacker than the blackest black, times infinity.
You cant kill the metal
The sustain, listen to is.
This is ELEVEN

time for my encore.
*singing sounds* 
I am the light bringer, everyone will follow when you die, my song, smite them all. 
Join the chorus of death, 
Expire.
Revel in the undoing.
Your time has come.
Release your mortal coil.
Rest in peace.
Sleep now child.
Darkness envelops you.
Hear my song.
Rhythm of your life, slows.
I sing the word of death.
It is written.
I crave the parting.
Ahhh. the kiss of death.
Die by my hand, and rise anew.
Sleep without dreams.
Angels too, are the messengers of death.
Mosts of angels, or murder of crows.
This power grows with time, as does mine.
A companion for all time.
A tear of loss, a tear of joy.
A crown for the king of death.
It's old master served my patron well.
Ahhh. the song grows.
I hear the echo of a rabadon, it is exquisite. 
None can outrun death.
When deaths grip finds you, it clings tightly.
This crystal will sing with me.
No one can hide from the end.
It will turn their mantels to shrouds.
What can protect you from the inevitable? 
The grave has all the time in the world.
The sands slip away like lies.
Freeze that moment on the threshold of oblivion.
Come drink of the grail.
*Singing**Death sounds* 
*Grunts*

So many souls await, 
We all have the place among the divine, we only have to accept it.
My pilgrimage, begins.
Listen and rejoice in death! 
Adored for those who remain.
Hear me mortals!
Sing with your final breath! 
Die!! 
Surrender!
Parish!!!
Seize to me!!
I watch
Death sees all
Dead eyes never blink..
*ability sounds*


Woad Scout Quinn

Quinn has a new skin!


New Cho'Gath Tip

Try to line up your attacks with Vorpal Spikes so that they kill minions and harass enemy champions at the same time.

(Replacing "Use of Rupture and Feral Scream can lead to mana starvation,but if partnered with a champion such as Soraka or one with a Mana Manipulator,using both skills early can yield positive results.")

    Did you even compare the transcript and the VO?

    There are quite a few mistakes and blanks. This would be more accurate. (the only part I'm not sure of is "We all have a place among the divine, we've only to accept it.")

  • #57 Grabari

    Are these Karthus' sounds all for normal skin or only for skins like Pentakill? I want to know :O

  • #56 Archdmon

    The metalocalypse reference, love it!

  • #51 Ebp90

    Is his voice actor Dee Bradley Baker? 

  • #50 dnagemo

    Oh damn pentakill pantheon confrimed ! Seriously doe change that youtube name.

  • #48 Dankaw

    This is the best VU so far. Riot made Karthus totally epic. 10/10 would want that again.

    Also Quinn's new skin look damn great.

  • #46 Kazaanh

    Finally a death animation that looks great, compared to the last VUs.

  • #42 dragonfells

    That is a ton of lines. Like, he has something to say when buying nine different items... and some items have multiple lines. The new Karthus makes Jinx look like almost nothing, and she has a fair number of quotes and interactions.

    I wouldn't mind at all if Riot went down this path for future VUs and new champions, even if it takes longer to release each one.

  • #44 LordCoconuts

    I want reworked Taric telling something when he buys a gem <3

  • #38 1Theseus1

    The sands slip away like lies.

    I think its lives not lies.

    Pls Riot add more awesome sounds to the game like these.

    It brings more live into the game.

  • #36 Karuuna

    Overall pretty great - but i dont like the Icons.. They look far too similar to each other and the only thing they resemble to me is "Waily Doom". 

    I think they could have come up with more fitting Icons. 

  • #45 LogicBot

    Explosion, wall, swirl, bigger explosion

    Seems pretty accurate to me

  • #34 NoisyThunder

    All five Quinn players will probably buy this skin.

  • #37 reirun

    Guess I'm one of those five players -.-

    Quinn is really underrated compared to other champions. She's my main and I really love to screw bot lane with her. Of course, she needs a reliable support to aid her, but still, I feel proud when I choose Quinn, because I'm sure I know how to handle her.

    Anyway, skin looks amazing, though I expected something Bilgewaterish-like with a parrot.

    I dig Karthus' death animation as well.

  • #39 Clkflynn

    Bahhh...I've never seen a good Quinn player.

    She naturally gets worst and worst as the game goes on and for some reason Quinn players always get caught. You'd think her top lane would be really good, but it really isn't. She doesn't offer anything after the laning phase

    Her roaming after the first tower is down? pls.

  • #41 reirun

    You've never seen because nobody chooses her.

    I've got dozens of overly fed games with her, ending with 0 deaths many times, so.. maybe you've got bad luck. ;]

    @xdxAngeloxbx my thoughts exactly.

    Tier lists have always been about overall percentage win rate. Nobody thinks Quinn can't win games, she's just much less likely to win one compared to an equally-skilled Lucian for instance.

    Quinn has a similar problem to Fiora; she's really strong in lane and most people don't know how to fight her so you get fed a lot of the time or at least do really well. The end result is you either get fed and steamroll the game, making Quinn look strong, or you don't get ahead enough, and you fall off really hard, but the impression is that you lost because of your team (but I was ahead and won lane! Of course you did, you're Quinn). It's a really bad sort of design that encourages the player to think Quinn is better than she is and their team is worse than they are.

    tl;dr: you should learn other carries if you want to win.

  • #47 reirun

    @Shinkada True to that, though still Quinn is my fav champion to pick. I do choose MF, Caitlyn, Lucian or even Ashe. Personally, I'm not limited to just one ADC.

  • #30 retlol123

    Abomination, you have cheated death too long.

     

    Next champ called Abomination?

    Is it possible or does it mean Sion?
