This video was created for the sake of creating it. It didn't feature any skins, the character didn't get a rework in his mechanics, it's just an animated song about a cursed mummy and really, sometimes some of us feel the same way, during dark hours of our lives.

Season 1-5 Riot was nice. Not gamewise, but decision making for random things. April Fools jokes, claiming a manatee would be in the game, then actually turning it into URF we know now, Get Jinxed, 2014 Warriors, Pentakill, DJ Sona, and all their media decisions. That was absolutely how you build a community correctly. Not to mention the pretty fire reveals for champs in the day. Like, absolute hot fire. Bard, Jinx, Lucian and Thresh, Jhin, even Yasuo. Like for the past ones (Yone, Yuumi, Samira, etc.) there’s no build. No extra lore expansion, no spoilers, no teases, no cinematics like Warwick’s rework, no hype. Like all we get now is maybe 3 weeks advanced notice in a small sample of gameplay, then the champion spotlight comes out. Meanwhile everyone on the PBE already spoiled everything and saying they’re broken.

So Amumu is, as you described him, a folk tale sort of character. He was a prince from this place called Shurima, but his curse means that anyone he touches withers away. He's a pretty mysterious champion, and a lot of his origins are still unknown, but this video gives you the general gist of it. I'd recommend checking out the 'Tales of Runeterra' series if you want to learn a bit more. They're a set of non-musical but really cool cinematics that give a good feel for each of the major regions in League of Legends, although they haven't gotten to every region yet.

In game, one of Amumu's ability is literally him crying until his energy runs out, and his ultimate ability is the tantrum shown here. So, sadly that's why his lore can't progress because if they give him a friend he would no longer weep and throw tantrums.

Amumu has always been one of my favorites. In game and in lore. The fact they made an MV over him just cemented his status. Especially since it’s one of the best ones, albeit underrated. Edit: the little touch near the end where Amumu’s in the streets. Where all the lights of the houses slowly start going out while it looks like the dark wisps are comforting him - MY god is that so nice of a visual touch.

Great breakdown as always, So after the events of this, Amumu spent many years alone wandering the world, eventually he would be found and asked to join the League of Legends and fight, I believe he does eventually make a friend in Annie, a magical girl with a VERY special bear, you can find out more about her and her tragic backstory in the ''Annie:Origins'' video, and it is great, I do recommend checking it out.

The story of Amumu is very much one of many sad stories. League used to have this old form of lore where the players were referred to as Summoners. There was a Institute of War that housed the Champions and Amumu was one of the residents. It also seem to have a established story of Amumu being a prince before dying and coming back. Now, 2014 has passed and he might be a prince who killed his friend by accident, a evil ruler who's trying to make amends of his actions or a Yordle trying to find a good person. Gramcracker.

Song continuation: "Amumu left the town to anguish in the damage he had wrought. He settled in a swamp knowing there was nothing left to rot." "There he hoped to stay forever, in solitude and gloom. In doing this, he prayed no one else would meet their doom." "Then one year he heard a noise not familiar to that place. A little girl who stared upon him with both a smile and wonder on her face." "He tried to run he tried to hide, but she thought it was a game. She finally caught him and to his surprise when she gazed upon his face, she did not scream she did no die, she was completed left un-phased." "A witches child, her name was Annie, the curse she was immune. When she laughed, when they played, it made his heart beat as if anew." "For his search was over, Amumu finally met a friend. never was he sad again, his curse was at its end."

The animation is meant to kinda replicate the old pop up story books, and the song is the story. So you saying it reminds you of folk and a bed time story is pretty accurate. BTW, amumu is cursed to never die, but anyone near him or whoever he touches will slowly die so he is literally forever alone. And eventually the loneliness drives him mad and he throws a tantrum destroying everything around him and he simply cant control himself. That ledge of hope was as you described, a physical ledge, one which people jump off of to commit suicide because he is so sad and so alone he doesnt want to live anymore, but he cant die and cant kill himself so he has no hope of salvation. Thats the story, nothing else after that. He is just cursed to live forever and alone for all eternity. The end.

In addition to all of these great comments: As far as I know, death is an actual, physical being in the world of Runeterra (Kindred). Amumu's curse is so powerful, that not even death wants to have anything to do with him, so hence the black ravens (his curse) saving him from dying. So the curse both prevents him from having any kind of relationshop AND dying. He has been wandering around the world for more than 9000 years.
