As highlighted by a user on Twitter, the “Heavy Is The Crown”music video is laden with intricate details. Among them is a brief moment where Faker removes his cloak, transitioning into an animation featuring Azir.

With the 2024 Worlds on the way, fans can expect even more captivating content from the developers regarding the tournament, along with possibly more nods to one of the most iconic quotes in League of Legends history.
