The melody comes from Legends Never Die, the anthemic song recorded by Against the Current for the 2017 League of Legends World Championship, where it became closely tied to high-stakes competition and dramatic comebacks. Short samba-style reworkings later spread online as playful edits, turning the serious anthem into a celebratory, carnival-flavoured clip. That contrast is why it endures: creators use the familiar tune to signal triumph, but the samba rhythm makes the moment feel light, funny and instantly shareable.
