It’s really good, and I’m enjoying it. But holy fuck does the licensed music in this show suck! Not only does it not really fit the setting, and is just kinda meh… But Imagine Dragons are diagetic???

Yeah but some people do like that music. I always thought every imagine dragons song sounds the same. whisper whisper YELL YELL
Imagine Dragons sound like they were all lab engineered by Disney Corp
People are free to enjoy whatever kind of music. I happen to think Imagine Dragons is schlock music for car commercials, but that’s besides the point.
It’s just not music that fits with the setting at all. It feels like they just blew a chunk of their production budget on expensive licensed music, because they had that sweet sweet Netflix money to throw around. Not because it enhanced the atmosphere or emotionality of the piece.
There’s some outside context that you would miss if you aren’t a league gamer, and that’s Imagine Dragons being deeply wrapped up with Riot and previous esports tournaments - they have done several themes including Warriors which became a huge song.
It’s kind of the brand identity of Riot now, they have to include it in all their works even if it thematically clashes with the specific atmosphere of a piece
Everyone I know that likes Imagine Dragons is a zoomer. It’s their first band they liked, like Smash Mouth or Backstreet Boys was for millennials. Got to give them a break
WOOOOOAAAHHH-WHOA
Those people are objectively wrong
