On September 23, 2022, the new anthem for League of Legends 2022, Star Walkin', was released by Riot Games. It was a huge occasion as the 2022 anthem was performed by the Grammy Award-winning rapper, Lil Nas X. 

But it seems that the anthem could not get the attention of the fans. The video and song received a lot of negative feedback from most people. There were complaints regarding the quality of animation, the way it was presented, the content of the video, and the overall appeal of the anthem. 

The official anthem of the World Championship is a prestigious moment for all as it is a celebration of the biggest tournament in League of Legends. So, the expectations are quite high as the previous anthems like Legends Never Die and Phoenix have really set the bar high. 

The League of Legends Worlds 2022 anthem received a lot of negative feedback from the fans. Not only the general player base but also the professional players and casters felt that the song was not up to the mark. 

Some felt that the song looked like a promotional video for the new Mecha skins for Twisted Fate, Rell, and Thresh. They also felt that the video is devoid of passion and direction. 

But that is not all. There's another complaint that the video could have showcased more players. The main focus of the video was on CoreJJ, Meiko, Humanoid, and Chovy, who represent only three teams out of the 24 participating in the tournament. 

There were few sequences where the video consisted of Easter eggs representing other players, but the fans expected it to be more apparent. Many even felt that it was disrespectful to all the teams and also to the players who put so much effort to make it to this point. 

The final complaint of the fans was that they felt the video and song did not sync well. In the previous anthems of the League of Legends Worlds, the iconic moments in the videos made them popular. In this case, the song had a very slow pace. The video was also dull having panoramic shots which were not needed at all. 

In fact, many League of Legends fans agreed that the video begins on a high note but fizzles out towards the end. The lack of proper climax and crucial hype moments that made the rest of the songs popular in the past has left the entire fanbase disappointed. 

The major problem with the World Championship songs is that Riot Games has raised the expectations of the fans through the previous anthems. Songs such as Rise, Legends Never Die, and Phoenix is difficult to outclass. This has made the situation really very difficult for the developers when it comes to future releases.
