First Blood is a long-standing announcement from League of Legends, Riot Games' multiplayer online battle arena game first released in 2009. The announcer calls it when a player scores the first kill of a match, a moment that often sets the tone for the rest of the game. The line became familiar to millions of players through countless matches and streams, and clips of it spread into edits, memes and highlight videos. It remains popular because it instantly signals a decisive opening play without needing any extra explanation.
About this sound
League of Legends announcer voice declaring First Blood after the first kill of a match. Gamers use it for opening kills in edits, streams and montages.
This is the classic League of Legends announcer voice, a deep, formal female voice that declares 'First Blood' the moment the first champion falls in a match. The delivery is calm, clear and slightly dramatic, with a short pause before the phrase lands and a clean finish that makes it instantly recognisable to players. Even outside a game it carries the weight of a competitive milestone, turning a single kill into a moment of triumph or warning. For viewers who know League of Legends, hearing it triggers the tension of the opening minutes, the rush of an early advantage and the sense that the match has properly begun.
