Show drops massively in quality

Retards and trannies gulp it down because of overattachment to fiction

Opinion will gradually sour over a few years as the tanking quality is judged more objectively

Today's "doomers" have tomorrow's popular opinion

just like Stranger Things and when marvelshit turned into ultraslop around and after Infinity War

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO PLEASE DON'T CÙCK ME, 4CHANNEL WILL NEVER LET ME LIVE IT DOWN, POWDER WILL CHANGE THE LYRICS OF ENEMY TO MOCK ME, PLEASE NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

what did Violet mean by this?

imagine the sex

Mow down lesbians with gatling guns. Pistol whip lesbians in the shower. Decapitate lesbians and serve their heads on platters to their girlfriends. Throw grenades at lesbians. Trick lesbians into stepping on landmines. Shoot rocket launchers at lesbians' mothers during important political conferences.

would you still love a man who have lost his dick(but gained cool magical powers)?

Why do the cuck droolers who defend this shitty season with "it's only the first 3 episodes!" when the first 3 episodes of Season 1 didn't need to be defended with the hopes that the show would improve afterwards?

Sorry Anon Babblepe but there’s no ulterior motive behind Maddie, she’s just there to kill the kid

Can his magical powers give him a new dick

cucks Vi

kills the child

how can one woman be so based?

I want to kiss and comfort her in my arms...

The Viktor touch 100% makes people cum when they transform

Because episode 2 was great, only a stupid contrarian would deny it. So that gives people hope

You never will

We gonna see vi and caits tits at the same time?

lemme guess "s1 was a masterpiece that was perfect in every way, fuck s2 I hate it"

Imagine how tightly she was hugging him

1645189425671.jpg - 3840x1632, 358.39K

I swear somebody possibly a rito employee said we were gonna se tits this season

Why does EVERY French cartoon have nudity EXCEPT Arcane?

China

*manboobs
we've seen Jayce's, Viktor's and Salo's

So did Ambessa stage the attack at the memorial? and...the colorful clouds that Sevika spewed into Piltover was poisonous right

How can a kiss between two fiction women characters make manchilds so fucking bitter? It is amazing how fucking out of reality these people are

There's gotta be some kind of lower limit to how little a child character can be developed before being killed or put in danger to force drama between characters otherwise committed to conflict. They have to have a name and some lines at least, especially if you're going to pull the same fucking shit more than once.

A common debate here. The thing is s1 had explicit sex between Jayce and Mel versus the implied sex of Cait and Maddie. Amanda said there was gonna be sex so we can assume there will be explicit sex, also because they’re setting up for a CaitVi reunion which presumably leads to sex. I rest my case, and penis.

the colorful clouds that Sevika spewed into Piltover was poisonous right

Just a little bit

So what is that maddie and ambessa thing anons do we think she’s actually a traitor? Because most people on xitter and tt just are saying they think she’s one because they’re secretly watched the episode 4 leaks

Isha’s full name is Isha plotdeviceberg

Do we think Sevika is going to chimp out when she finds out Jinx killed Silco?

Vi got cucked

The clouds are paint so yeah if people breath it in it'll be dangerous

if he kept his asshole so i could tongue it yeah

wait, is the maddie/cait thing from the leaks?

if so, can people just talk about the episodes that have aired? I dodged the leaks for months and would like to be surprised as the show airs

Yes, obviously assuming she's not already half dead when she's told.
Her arm probably has a failsafe Jinx can use to kill her at any time.

Are these all Cassandra or different ancestors?
The youngest not having the kiramman key makes me think it's a timeline.

berg

every time

Yes they are obviously family portraits. So Cassandra's granny married a british man, her mom married a british man, and she married a chinaman to reset the bloodline.

Asks Vi to join the enforcers, despite Vi's history

Has no problem potentially killing a kid to kill Jinx (though she had a clear fucking shot)

Gutchecks her

And now she potentially screws her subordinate. Like how do have Vi reconcile with her, just be overly forgiving?

finished the three episodes

L-L-L-LE EKKO ISN'T IMPORTANT IN THIS SEASON GUYZZZZZZZZ!!!!!

Appears in all episodes

Appears in the intro twice

literally moves the main plot of the Arcane with Jayce and Heimer

he and the tree literally being the catalyst event that will move the series to its conclusion

his intervention at the core is the literal catalyst for the Vi/Jinx fight going haywire

not to mention he literally saved Jinx/Sevika from dying quicker by malfunctioning all hextech

will only miss two episodes

BUT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GUUUUUUUUUUUYZ EKKO IS NOT IMPORTANT HEAR ME I WATCHED THE LEAKS

I'll never believe any word you stupid leaker faggots say again. What else are you hiding?

brings the bloodline to an end because she decides to be rebellious and larp as a lesbian

No wonder Cassandra didn't get along with Cait

Oh like Vi gave a fuck about killing kids last season. She asks for the gloves to go after Jinx alone, she sent the rest of the team topside because of "nerves" then fails to crush Jinx's head between her pneumatic press knuckles despite telling Kait to "take the shot" given the chance. "No don't shoot at the mute plot device child even though you have the accuracy to shoot a gun out of her hand in the same fucking scene!"
Fuck Vi. She's a worthless liability to an organization trying to prevent a civil war.

Been talking about it a long time bud

He got written out of the show for the next 3 episodes by the way

explain why he wouldn't be in episode 6

I mean sure, but I'm saying with all of that, how are they make her and Cait's reunion believable? Honestly that whole trio are all awful people, I'm just questioning the writing now

Because I still have hope that the rest of the show will be good. If it isn’t exactly as good as one of my favorite seasons of any show ever, that’s kind of fine and even to be expected. It can still be very good.

Half of the shit you wrote was Jayce's doing tho
Oh god it just hit me, Ekko is Jayce's Miles Morales

Champions that could carry a new show

Ezreal

Jhin

Lux

Darius

Yasuo

Riven

Zed

Ahri

Ashe

How about Evelyn and that alien suit chick with the big thrusters

Cait has done nothing wrong this season. Maybe pushing for the further weaponization of Hex Tech but basically everyone's guilty of that. If they're going to try to redeem Vi, she'll have to kill Jinx personally and then lick Cait's boots in penance.
"They killed my parents. Do you have any idea how that feels?" the scene after attending Cait's mom's funeral. What a fucking joke she's been reduced to in 3 episodes holy shit.

Yasuo and Ahri print money, if they do another series it's going to be about them

a Demacia show with Lux as the lead could be really good.

Given Fortiche made this video clip, I'm pretty sure it's reused assets for their next show
youtube.com/watch?v=rhTZTy1rZhw

Jayce literally admits he didn't notice any of these changes happening for years until now, try again

I want to see Yone...

I'm actually surprised that Arcane hasn't wanked Ahri at all. She was like the face of the game before this series happened.

All Arcane champions will fade into obscurity once the series ends. The only ones that will remain popular will ve the ones that were always popular to begin with (Jinx, Vi, Warwick, Caitlyn if you're a noob)

Great show but it is getting ridiculous how the story bends over backwards to help Jinx get away.

We literally have a 5 year old kid act as a human shield for someone who has killed over a dozen people.
And this somehow stops them from just shoving the kid out of the way and finish arrest/execute her?

the gerbil outright states Jayce was his previous apprentice, while Ekko is his new apprentice

It's starting to make sense, plus Ekko's ebin grafitti and skateboard schtick

Maybe is an unpopular opinion but I find Kai'sa really boring, she is just a Samus clone

so if Viktor cures VanderWick he becomes one of Viktors minions yes? LIke Salo where he can just take over his body whenever he feels like it

What dropped for you?
Animation/visuals are just as good as before.
Viice acting and music are just as good.
Story hasn't declined mych either unless you didn't care for your favorite shimmervictim being cured by hextech jesus.

I'm still trying to figure out this music video, i know the whole kindred deal of wolf or lamb choice of death. Why was the lamb destroyed and turned into a wolf medalion? Did she choose a violent death instead of the peaceful one but managed to survive anyway or did she do a deal with kindred in exchange for her child?

Is there a single studio who can rivalise with this studio right now? Because visually I've never seen 3D look this good

Noxians make a power grab and treat Piltover natives with inhuman brutality that makes Caitlyn realise that she was blinded by her hatred for Jinx, allowing her to rediscover the importance of compassion.

Vi overcomes her depression through a cathartic encounter with Warwick/Vander and puts aside any hard feelings that she has for Piltover to help overthrow the Noxian occupation.

Caitlyn and Piltover are ultimately saved from the Noxians by Vi and Zaun, with Jinx likely sabotaging herself in some way that ruins her image as a hero of Zaun and causes her to sink even further into her post-Silco nihilism.

All that CaitVi takes is Caitlyn recognising and regretting her own monstrous behaviour and Vi getting over her self-destructive depression.

This

There's always some twisted rhetoric thrown out when a character points out how Jinx is an actual bad person

I never thought you would become an enforcer

I never thought you would make orphans

I was on orphan who destroyed her family so I'm allowed

WHAT THE FUCK? Did the person who wrote that believed that was a good answer to justify murder?

And this somehow stops them from just shoving the kid out of the way and finish arrest/execute her?

Vi has Jinx's head between a pneumatic press, doesn't kill her

Cait can shoot the gun out of plot device child's hand, doesn't shoot Jinx in the head

Its genuinely ridiculous.

Blur maybe?

I’m just happy that Vi acknowledged she needed to die

Shut up Silco, you're dead and fish food now

Plot is bending backward for Jinx

When Jinx herself said she wanted to die

If anything, Jinx getting cucked out of death was the plot doing everything to fuck her over.

I am her people. I will defend goth Vi with every fibre of being being.

I was on orphan who destroyed her family so I'm allowed

Yeah this took me out of it too

so you see what we need to get the dykes back together is for Vander to die again again

and for Jinx's daughter to die

and for Jinx and Vi to hate each other again

You people are revolting

For the anon that was asking yea redemption is easy af. Vi is the one wearing her heart on her sleeve yearning for Caitlyn. Caitlyn just needs to wake up and Vi will welcome her with open arms or the other way around. Then they have sex.

Nah, that's bullshit. If she really wanted to die, the very next day after the fight she would throw herself into the river and drown

but muh kid

so the plot bent backwards not only to save Jinx, but to conveniently erase the plot point of her wanting to die. Interesting...

What exactly about that dialogue was out of character for Jinx? It's not like Vi went "oh ok good point" and leave. It's just Jinx being Jinx.

She canonically didn’t give a fuck about her being a lesbian. She could adopt. She was mad Caitlyn wanted to be a rough uncouth cop

She sacrificed the concept of ever living a peaceful life in pursuit of a more violent and ambitious existence. That's the moral of the story.
There might be more to the narrative though. Maybe there's something inherently magical about Mel that brought her back from the verge of death. Maybe she stole some sort of magical artifact that allowed her to escape death that she passed on to Mel. Maybe it's some sort of ancestral Shuriman blessing that allows women of the family to survive violent death. Who the fuck knows?

Do a Noxus show complete with the purge and founding of the Trifarix

Next do a totally unrelated show about Sivir and Cassiopeia travelling to find the lost treasures of a fallen empire

Lesbian shipbait everywhere

Cass literally stabbing Sivir in the back

protagonist has a plot development that leads to their character growth

Truly shocking and "interesting".

Yuritards are plotting to murder Isha again

1636843231382.jpg - 1024x1332, 84.41K

Honestly, I get the feeling that Act 3 might mostly sideline Jinx until she makes a shocking pseudo-heroic and tragic sacrifice of some sort, to finally give her life and death some sort of higher meaning. I'll be disappointed if they take the path, but I bet she'll sacrifice herself to take out the wild rune when all other methods fail or some shit like that.

Mel and Ambessa are both loaded up on Solari symbols so their family probably left Targon however many generations ago and keep a few magic doodads around as protection.

I need more pics of the freckle blondie

not already working on season 3 or the next series

allowing Fortiche to work on original non lol stuff that will just flop anyway because it’s not LoL

not already commissioning other animation studios to work on LoL stuff

not even live action stuff is in the works

Sorry guys but we’re not getting our Avengers Rune War anytime soon.

I get the feeling that Act 3 might mostly sideline Jinx until she makes a shocking pseudo-heroic and tragic sacrifice of some sort

I would fucking vomit

I wonder how the fuck they will find room to provide exposition about Shuriman/Targonian magic to explain why Mel survived the explosion. There's just so much shit to cover in this fucking show already.

to explain why Mel survived the explosion

Implying they're going to. Even without the obvious clue in the last episode, a bomb in a room is ambiguous enough to explain away survivors without needing further explanation.

Have you been living under a rock? There isn't a single Arcane thread since August that doesn't mention Vi getting cucked. Hell, anons here have an arsenal of cuck memes for when act 2 airs.

And she deserves it!

What will Singed do?

All these plot lines and I am still wondering how Singed fits into all of this. Why is he even releasing Warwick if his whole goal was muh science?

That line is just strange, "I made myself an orphan, so I have no qualms about doing the same thing...because I did it to myself, you see." I like Jinx but that bitch actually does need to go, and her having a pet child won't change that.

idk why they think Isha's gonna make a difference

Anyone who lays their eyes on goth Vi and still hates her is gay and retarded.

Wasnt his goal to revive her daughter(ori)?

ezreal would be perfect for a more light-hearted adventure show

revolving cast of side characters, he meets a new champ every episode

going around looting tombs is a good way to explore runeterra, he can be in the sands of shurima in one episode, he can be in the freezing freljord the next one

ezreal can do your standard shonen hero tropes of arrogant teen idiot

his morally ambiguous stance means he has space to both fight or help other champions depending on whats at stake

Make more furries

You just answered your own question

So I made this after Season 1.

How will it shift after this season is done you think?
I think Caitlyn's gonna have her own tier like Vi. Not sure if she'll be above or below her though.

who fucked up.jpg - 806x756, 121.58K

Lol chill out retard, are you mentally ill? He's just a child dumbass, kid is made to be adorable just look at his features, it's only natural people want him to be safe. Who cares, go back to the asylum

most forced forced shit this season

It's been 3 episodes faggot

Keep being based

I wonder if Ambessa has the Black Rose on her ass because she and her son found out Mordekaiser's armor is in the basement of the Immortal Bastion

So Act 2 will have to cover...

Jinx dealing with the hero worship and being turned into a symbol for Zaun.

Vi's descent into depression and self-destruction as a brawler.

Warwick rampaging and being a terrifying menace to society.

Caitlyn ruling over Piltover under Ambessa's tutelage as her puppet.

Mel trying to escape from the clutches of the Black Rose.

Jayce, Ekko and Donger trying to escape from the wild rune.

Viktor and his adventures of the Jesus of glorious evolution.

This shit is going to feel rushed and cramped as hell.

"I made myself an orphan, so I have no qualms about doing the same thing...because I did it to myself, you see."

It's a statement half ironic and half-self hatred. In other words, typical Jinx.

I like Jinx but that bitch actually does need to go

Her being crazy quirky manic pixie girl and being selfish is a basic part of her so no I don't think you "like" Jinx.

gets cucked

signs a contract with Facial Abuse

a tale as old as time

What did Vi do that wrong? Like she hasnt killed any Innocent so far

Misanthropic westoids are no longer capable of cherishing children. They unironically normalised saying unhinged shit like "children suck" and they "don't want to have kids" because they're a "burden".

Sorry anon but all that creative possibility went away when they made Arcane canon. Nobody is dying except obvious expendables like Isha.

what doesnt singed do?
he is off to create backstories for new champions

Tell me one good choice that Vi made the entirety of Season 1.
Wanting to bang Caitlyn doesn't count. Neutral at best, but probably also a fuckup.

1636487708764.jpg - 512x512, 171.41K

yeah they only hate the kid because she came in the way of “muh caitvi” kekek serves you right caitvifags buckle up and get ready to witness the biggest cucked moment next week.

complaining people dont die in their own backstories

let me guess, you hate batman year one because bruce wayne is guaranteed to survive?

It's something that does require a pretty direct answer and it's foreshadowed by a whole bunch of things. The shining golden details of Mel, the fact that she was right in front of the bomb when it went off, the fact that she and Jayce came out unharmed while everyone else was scarred or maimed in some fashion, and the fact that it's even mentioned as making no sense by Jayce himself. The narrative has been designed to encourage the audience to ask "how the fuck did Mel live" so it would be really weird for there to be no straight answer.

It’s most likely because Ambessa fucked a Solari and Mel and her brother’s magical inheritance is a threat to Leblanc.

I feel like no character will end truly happy in the series, at most satisfied with what they have left

what character growth? Not wanting to kill yourself isn't character growth. Getting a kid to justify yourself being good isn't character growth. Those are convenient asspulls designed to take a character from point A to point B without having to do the heavy leverage. Real character growth would be Jinx admitting she's a fucked up person, trying killing herself on her own, failing because someone saves her, that person teaching her new values about helping people, then creating a situation where Jinx has to put what she learned to the test, her doing what's right not because of X motive, but because she actually believes now that it's the right thing to do, and then realizing she could do more good if she's allowed.

Instead we have convinient development that prevents her from dying, followed by Donut Steel char giving her a reason to do good stuff she wouldn't do otherwise, which indirectly will leads to everyone loving her because "yaaaay she was a hero all along".

Even that Sevika line is fucking bullshit. Neither Ekko nor Silco could join the lanes for fucking 7 years despite both having massive followers, yet this girl who terrorized the lanes for years and killed plenty of people down there could do it because she killed a few Pilties?? That's so fucking stupid.

Her being crazy quirky manic pixie girl and being selfish is a basic part of her so no I don't think you "like" Jinx.

I can like a character and think that they need to die, anon, and that line just supports that. I like several of the Joker's incarnations, but Batman really should kill that man. Same with Jinx.

Well yeah just look at the current lore of league champs. They all just kinda fuck off.

I think that's the answer itself. Mel had some sort of shielding and it's part of what makes her character mysterious and intriguing. You can never tell if Mel has another trick up her sleeve and that's mainly because they won't explain these sort of things in detail.

My slutty wife

Real character growth would be Jinx admitting she's a fucked up person, trying killing herself on her own, failing because someone saves her, that person teaching her new values about helping people, then creating a situation where Jinx has to put what she learned to the test, her doing what's right not because of X motive, but because she actually believes now that it's the right thing to do, and then realizing she could do more good if she's allowed.

That's literally what happens in episode 4-5, you retarded yurifag

Of course she messed It up but like she isnt as bad as the corrupt cop

Sold out her sister, indirectly killed a child worker, became a cop, ate out a cop, deadnamed Jinx

NO
CHAMPION
WILL
DIE

Her order at Jericho’s.

IMG_0893.jpg - 842x594, 84.79K

Surely they'll finally add Sevika as a champion after that cool scene with a new arm? Please, Rita

I actually fully disagree with that assertion. It can happen that a character does something that's not their usual character and you agree that they deserve to be punished for it while still liking the character but to say that about Jinx or Joker when that's their character on default simply means you either don't like them or you "like" them as a villain to hate and as a foil for the character that you actually like.

I want you to be completely honest with me here, how much better off would Vi be if she just went full sub for Caitlyn and stopped making any decisions for herself?
Just straight up turns off her brain and only does whatever Cait says, absolutely nothing done without her input?

ummmm CaitVi is kinda based now?? wtf?

IMG_2145.jpg - 1116x452, 81.84K

Have Jayce realized she protected them with magic to kill their relationship what with his caveman mode return in episode 4/5 and then reveal what the magic is in a Noxus or Ezreal show.

Silco

did nothing wrong

Even if you're an edgelord who agrees with all the fucked up shit he did, it's impossible to deny he made a lot of mistakes that eventually lead to him getting murdered.

Not wanting to kill yourself isn't character growth

Stopped reading right there. Read more books.

Her brain has been shut off ever since she got locked up

I genuinely dont understand the kid hate, she barely has 2minutes of screentime. Dykes are retarded,.

Sold out her sister

She is a terrorist

Indirectly killed a child worker

Sef defende

Became a cop

That's based

Ate out a cop

Even more based

Deadnamed Jinx

Dont recall this scene but you are probably right

Loving Jinx too much is never wrong

OHHH THE MISERY

PILTY PUSSY KNOCKED THE WIND RIGHT OUT OF MEEEE

ekko will probably spent months in the arcane dimension and lose his tree and his people that he spent years protecting. Vi and Cait, the two people he trusted, were just gassing the undercity and now Cait became hitler 2

Vi i don't even need to say anything

Cait will realize how she was manipulated by Ambessa which resulted in death and destruction to both zaun and piltover. Vi will be her consolation prize at most

Jayce will totally turn on Viktor, his best and only friend left, will also lose Mel(she will either die, leave piltover, or change completely)

viktor will turn a schizo and do a buch of shit due to the Hexcore, might invoke a calamity

Jinx lost her sister, lost Ekko, will either lose Isha too or live the rest of her life alone, what she was always afraid of

i don't think i need to say anyrhing about Mel too

Heimer will basically see his city and his 3 apprentices slowly losing themselves

it's impossible to deny he made a lot of mistakes that eventually lead to him getting murdered

His mistake was letting Jinx crawl her way into his heart of tin and replace Zaun as his highest priority. Which is so endearing that I refuse to see it as a mistake even if it led to his death. Silco probably enjoyed these 7 years more than the rest of his life put together.

The issue with that is that the narrative makes sense without the mystery shielding. Mel dies, Ambessa feels driven to bring order to the lawless region that is responsible for her daughter's death and becomes an antagonistic figure for S2. It makes sense. Mel surviving because of mystery shielding just so that she can get kidnapped by the Black Rose to add even more complications to the story feels convoluted, unnecessary and disconnected from the rest of the story.

When a plot device prevents two major characters from dying in an important and pivotal moment, some degree of explanation is requirement. Keeping such a plot device mysterious just makes it feel like a cheap excuse to keep characters, like deus ex machina, not like a compelling mystery.

She is a terrorist

Lol, so is Cuntlyn.
She commits acts of terrorism yet you’ll never see Vi betray her will you? In fact Vi actually participates in those acts (gassing Zaun) which makes her a terrorist too.

except she never admits she was a bad person and she's only doing good shit because of the kid. When you need a crutch to justify your good actions, you haven't gotten real growth

If she hadn't convinced Cait to leave the others behind, things might have gone different.

She also brought them on the job that leads to the entire plot happening.

If this was an original series Jinx would die for the undercity’s sovereignty. Viktor also dies after becoming corrupted and Heimer’s worst nightmare after everybody works together to defeat him. Orianna also comes back to life in her original human form not robot. Vi and Cait part ways. Cait becomes sheriff and continues her relationship with Maddie. Vi marries Jayce because he’s the only one that truly supported her with the gauntlets and they adopt Orianna because Singed is dead or whatever. The end. Oh and Ekko becomes a leader of Zaun.

female customer

Wait, is that Neeko? Is he still doing that plotline where she transforms to whore around?

this but with loli vi

Jinx has character development

NOOOOOOOOOOOO IT DOESN'T COUNT, KIDS EXIST TO BE ABORTED

are you done? this is getting tiresome

How did reddit manage to shitpost harder than us? Nobody here thought of this.

How does this Ekko conect to his old lore of his friend dying?

Sorry you think not offing yourself is a monumental achievement. Hope you get the meds you need to help you achieve it though

KEKKKK

Exactly. Cait is a TERRORIST. Her ancestor is Joseph Stalin after all.

She pretty much already is if you consider her mental turmoil right now

Tranny Vastaya snuck in and out of the story without anyone noticing or shitposting about it

How did she do it? Just too boring to shitpost about?

Lest.jpg - 1552x2048, 507.42K

Caitlyn is no terrorist

His mistake was being an idiot who never double confirmed that Vi was dead. One would think that him having so many people infiltrated, one would be in Stillwater maybe double checking the list of immates

You make it sound like it only counts as character growth if it turns her into someone who fundamentally lacks the characteristics and personality of Jinx. Your suggestion sails past character development and into the realm of character assassination.

My wife immediately clocked it was voiced by a tranny
Nobody has better tranny radars than women

Nah people noticed, both since the leaks had a hot female VA and the tranny did the generic tranny trying to sound like a woman voice by sounding faggy and turning it up to 11. Hell I paused the episode and watched the scene via the leak and then skipped ahead.

I don't get your insistence on putting quotes around "like" like that. If you like a character for being a villain, then you like the villain. I don't even think you have to hate the villain. As for Jinx, it's her journey, her trial, design, weapons, the fact that she's a still a decent threat in CQC, etc. But I can reconcile all that with saying, yes, Cait should have went for the head, instead of finger.

This isn't your personal safe space. I'll stay here for however many hours I fucking want

Viktor's gonna go become tech jesus

Jayce is gonna become afraid of hextech and wanna stop all of it

No more cute moments of Viktor and Jayce having reconciliatory moments bonding over cool shit they built

Is there a bigger red herring than this s1 scene? We thought we were going to get a long elaborate story of Jayce becoming an asshole and stealing the spotlight while Viktor becomes jealous and descends to darkness and MACHINE.

IMG_6069.jpg - 1178x1228, 57.99K

Good on you
Isha a cute
Vi a cucked

When blitzcrank?

Actually it looks like Viktor is getting reworked into a void mage which is a shame because we already got too many of those. But hey the Jesus look is cool.

Terrorist: "a person who uses unlawful violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims."

Remind you of something? Yes, Cuntlyn unlawfully intimidating and terrorizing the innocent people of Zaun, gassing them and calling them animals, in the pursuit of one individual, Jinx.

and then reveal what the magic is in a Noxus or Ezreal show.

ezreal is a unique case in runeterra
he believes himself to have no innate magical powers and that the gauntlet imbues him with ancient shuriman magic, though he still refers to himself as a mage
in actuality, he has incredible latent magic powers and is possibly more powerful than even lux, the gauntlet just allows him to focus his magical energy into spellcasting
its implied that the gauntlet is holding him back, as long as he thinks the gauntlet is what is special and not himself, he will never actually use his abilities anywhere close to its true potential

ezreal being held back by his gauntlet when he should be relying on himself is an allegory for how he is held back by greatness by putting on personas of what he thinks is cool instead of just being himself

he could have bagged lux years ago by just not pretending to be a ladies man who only cares for himself and just talking to her

She wants to win once just once...

I have hope we are getting classic Viktor still just because Riot accidentally spoiled his character sheet during the making of videos for season 1.

He. Did. Nothing. Wrong.

dinner.jpg - 750x750, 77.74K

Most of those things are probably all connected to each other in some way that it will probably turn into a big group battle in the end. I wouldn't worry. It was like this last season too

What unlawful thing she did? She is a cop doing her job

Probably never. I think we will get Orianna this season, but no Blitz. Unless Viktor just assembles him as a defender for his flock of followers or something.

I fully expect Viktor to eventually pay Singed a visit and offer his old mentor the salvation for his daughter he always wanted, only for her to be so far gone that his healing reconstruction of her turns her into the modern Orianna with a barely there personality/identity, making Singed even more insane and mad at Viktor.
Funnily enough, I fully expect Singed to get out of this scot free. Everything is still in line to have him head to Noxus once all his ties are broken and help them warcrime all over Ionia.

viktor was intended to be an evil techsorcerer who borged people

slowly turned into a misunderstood robo-jesus with bad publicity

but they cant be bothered to change his voice lines so he still has an evil laugh in the game and drops lines like INFERIOR CONSTRUCTS like he is megatron

Did the Ionia invasion already happen?

Unlawful: not conforming to, permitted by, or recognized by law or rules.

Are you retarded or are you just a caitfag from xitter? Is it permitted by law to be able to gas zaunites, or anyone at that? No I don't think so.

She is a terrorist

One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter. Also see pic related.

Self defence

Raiding a workplace because you have a vendetta against the boss isn't self defense.

That's based

All Enforcers Are Bastards

Even more based

AEAB

Dont recall this scene but you are probably right

Dinner party, calls her Powder instead of Jinx

just like marvelshit

The thing is, Arcane season 1 already set certain quality expectation for the show.

I watched marvel shit fully conscious it was flashy slop, thats not the case with Arcane that went from a pretty good character driven drama show to generic flashy slop.

The series IS doing what you're claiming. It's turning Jinx into someone that isn't really Jinx. My suggestion lies on the fact that the writers have decided to do character assassination to Jinx but they're also skipping all the necessary steps to make it believable. Because, as things stands right now, I don't believe for one second that Jinx is a good guy. Not even close.

I don't think so.
If I had to guess, I think we're still in Darkwill's Noxus, either pre-invasion or just at the start of it.
All this shit is going to go down and end up with Noxus getting Singed and maybe some stuff from this new Arcane whatnot to lead to their Grey Legion experiments (Sion and such).

Ambessa in the game does have lines for Swain, but I think (assuming she lives to the end of Arcane) it'll be more her being upset Swain swooped in and stole the power from under her.
Or, it could end up with a big twist that she is The Faceless, the third of the Trifarix representing Guile. It was always implied to be Leblanc but Riot kept saying it isn't Leblanc. Maybe instead it's Ambessa under Leblanc's orders.

gassing innocent civilians including children that have nothing to do with jinx isn’t unlawful? ok retard

Why shouldnt It be allowed? The gas just get them down and none of them are Innocents

Vi marries Jayce

They never retconned away the awful shit he did in the past so even the whole robo-jesus concept was questionable. I've always put game him in the wanting to save people whether they like it or not category with shit like being asked to design a diving suit and finding out that a high percentage of injuries/accidents are caused by people panicking in the depths so his solution was including an emotional override tool to temporarily lobotomize workers.

Any leaks from episode 6?

Himmler you're up past your bedtime

Vi got cucked lmao

The Ambessa/Noxus angle of the story was a total mistake because before the plot was a web of personal interactions, small moments that create lasting consequences, and a clashing of conflicting motivations/plans
After Ambessa/Noxus' bullshit everyone just looks like a retard getting played so Noxus can take their new toys
Ambessa was a good way to introduce Mel's backstory and motivations while offering a glimpse of the greater world beyond Piltover/Zaun but she should have fucked off afterwards rather than making the entire story seem quaint. Sadly they couldn't make Ambessa leave because she is omg brown mommy!!! and bluehairs love that trash

dont think so, best 2d/3d combo animation in industry, not even close
disney struggled for decades to blend 3d and 2d, some anime did it half decent, and i really hated how spiderman spiderverse did it, fucking 4fps 3d animation, with more filters than your usual insta thot
fortiche dosnt need to hide anything, their texture and model work is good enough to work in full motion
turns out it was never a problem of some fancy shaders or high tech fluid sims, just a mater of good hand painted lighting and textures

Arcane came from one of the sloppiest games ever produced. I watched Season 1 fully conscious it was gonna be slop. If it became slop now, then it's just going full circle

The storytelling's painfully tedious.
I think I might actually quit without finishing the season this time.

Is it weird that I enjoyed Singed's little 15 second clips at the end of each episode more than the rest of the episode itself? God, they better not fuck up what little we're going to get of Orianna. I just want to see Singed happy, even if just for a little bit.

Are you mentally disabled

none of them are innocents

Enlighten us then and elaborate

They went after the crimelords of zaun

Maybe at midnight, I heard something interesting out there... plus I have a hunch

they made sure to emphasize that his machine body has caused him to have a colder, more detatched, form of reasoning but he never tries to trick anyone into being cyberized against their will

he is upfront that his modifications will make your life better but also remove pesky emotional responses
so everyone who turns into a robot did so after metaphorically signing the liability waiver and knowing full well that being a machine-man will result in your hormones being drained

It's 4am where I live

NOOOOOOOOOOOO DONT USE THE NON-LETHAL GAS THAT ONLY MAKE PEOPLE UNCOSCIOUS AGAINST THE CRIMELORDS OF THE UNDERWORLD EVERYTHING BUT THAT

Echo on the same tier as Jinx

Buh?

I need more of her

Wait, my family secret is that we can gas the entire undercity *whenever* we want?

I feel like this should matter more

lol youre retarded typical xitter caitfaggot refugee

I'm so pissed that Ekko is one of my favorite LoL characters and they replaced him with a niggerfied facsimile who, besides the hourglass on his face, bears no resemblance to the based punk kid I loved to play
and no I'm not mad about the no-time-travel thing. Honestly, it's better they didn't introduce it and I hope they don't. But the fucking short dreads asshole gangleader with a heart of gold generic cringe? kill yourselves riot
I laughed like a maniac when I saw that art of the Medarda family where Mel's brother ALSO had the same exact short dreads every Californian nigger character has

Then wait until the afternoon

retard

I thought there was a demon in that thing? Atakhan.

pretty sure the gas was shown to have side effects
either way, I'm from piltover and i say gas them all

Kill Them All.jpg - 894x480, 24.63K

I didn't watch the leaks and just saw some of the things posted here
So Warwick will be introduced on episode 4 and in episode 5 already there will be that group hug scene? It isn't kinda fast?

Wasn't some leaker saying 3rd act was ekko focused? You can cope that we will see some of that at least, i can't even do that with Viktor

trying not to laugh at obese women

bro convergence came out not to long ago and he had his mohawk

Whole ass montage of undercity children being abused or running for their lives

Gas use is localized to gang hotspots with zero accidental civilian exposure until its gets turned on Piltover

Yeah fuck it. Gas them all, it would be a fucking mercy.

Caitlyn when she loses her mom to Jinx

"What kind of animals!"

Automatically forgets that is the reality of 99% of zaunites including Vi and Jinx who lost both their parents to piltie nazis who have opressed and abused zaunites for years

It isn't kinda fast?

The whole series suffers from rushed pacing

I personally will wait for everything to come out and watch the 6 episodes left at once. There's gonna be a time skip anyway, and at this rhythm Warwick is showing up at the last act

Yeah but convergence was third party.

The leaker does not exist son, all the leaks so far are false. Maybe not the one from 3 weeks ago, but the rest yes

Orphans orphaned to cops

Heckin real and valid

Orphans orphaned to endemic, uncontested gang activity and run of the mill, daily Zaunite chaos

Actually they like it

convergence

not made by riot and god knows when that actually started production

There was zero chance of her fucking off after what Jinx did

Kill All zaunites.

100635506.png - 3072x1682, 3.21M

Had something interesting in S1 with how both sides fought for good and bad reasons

S2 has hitler caitlyn abusing her lesbo gf and shooting at children

it's like I'm in a fucking fever dream

Will he can still recognize the girls here and there. He first ran into Jinx cause of Singed in episode 4 and he called her Powder and stopped attacking her. No else used that name anymore and his face is still recognizable. Episode 5 is her trying to convince Vi that Vander's alive and the episode ends with him brawling Vi in the dark, but then instead of fighting him she goes for a hug. Episode 6 is where the girls will finally get to talk to him.

To be fair, she was gaslit into it. The problem is how far she will go now.

hitler caitlyn

Yeah, she is the good one now.

im not getting this skin

Jinx killed both her dad's.

Okay no. I’m NTA but this is bullshit. I LOVE children and want some of my own someday, always have. Isha is precious, but she is a fucking walking plot device. She quite literally falls out of the sky and conveniently stops Vi from harming Jinx during their fight, causes extra friction needed for Caitlyn to become more evil and split from Vi, and in general it doesn’t make sense for Jinx to be with a child this season.
It’s cheap writing. This is not simply nasty gen z “I hate kids” stuff. She is not a real child and didn’t need to exist in the first place.

Why the apostrophe?

She wouldn't have lost her original dad if it wasn't for Piltie oppression

THEY CALL IT THE GRAY

This will age well

Probably never met the man.

THEY CALL IT THE GRAY

It's green

Nah, she's adorable.

First season was all about Duality. This season is all about War. There's no good guys in War.
Unless Jinx ends up actually becoming a good guy in this conflict once she unites Zaun...

Did you respond to the wrong person? Unrelated ass meme and I already said Isha is adorable in my post

Why the hell should we compare the acts between each other just because they were the first? S1 Act1 was one of the best if not the best act of the entire series anyway, so i don't expect every act of S2 to be on the same level anyway

Episode 1

Shitty montage of Caitlyn going through the Kiramman archives while not showing us what she found to build suspense

Episode 2

Another shitty montage plays of the exact same scene except now they just directly explain that she found that the Kirammans have access to the vent system and can use it to gas Zaunites during the strike team missions, which was not information worth hiding from the viewer in the first place

Why even fucking bother with the first montage? Why piss away twice the screen time showing us the same event twice? Did no one vet this shit? This is something you'd catch in a storyboard 2 years ago.

you should get spanked for typing that

Jinx needs to die because she's a terrorist

pretending it's evil that she killed elites that force people to live in the filthy runoff of their city

these people are responsible for countless deaths for decades

Jinx is bad bc she did a precision strike killing those responsible and no one else

direction action is... LE BAD!!! Okay???

it’s almost like kid’s a new character that adds to the plot

retard

People need to stop acting like Caitlyn hating Zaun came out of nowhere. She was a young optimistic noblewoman who's entire list of potential trauma in life was standing in a hallway when Jayce's lab exploded that joined the police force and got relegated to being a traffic cop because Marcus didn't want to endanger the heir to the family that bankrolled the Enforcers.

Then over the course of season 1 and season 2 part 1 she witnesses multiple coworkers die horribly to Jinx's trap, rampant abuse of shimmer, the death of her boss and dozens of senior enforcers while simultaneously finding out that a Zaunite gang had corrupted the Enforcers, Jinx's rocket destroying the council chambers and killing her mother when she hesitated in taking the shot, more Zaunites butcher the grieving family of people killed in the attack on the chambers, the degeneracy of mass gang warfare as the Zaunites try to fill Silco's power vacuum, and the one Zaunite she thought to be good get in the way of the revenge for her mother.

It feels like Jayce is less involved with the plot than he should be. Was he not on the council and the de-facto leader of Piltover at the end of season 1?

>direction action

Anyways a lot of people in Piltover are from Zaun. Vi, Loris, Seraphine are all examples of this. It's not 2 cities it's 1 city. They're the same and killing random citizens does nothing to help anyone.

His only concern is Viktor right now

He doesn't want that life anymore.

He was.
Then half the council died and Jayce holed up in his lab to watch his not boyfriend breath softly in his Arcane medbed. So the others took charge.
And then he immediately got whisked away by a magic fuckery and will come back a disheveled mess insisting on crushing all of it.

Lol? I almost died trying to understand your retarded rant. Chill the fuck out, tourist. She's had 1 minute of screentime, you're acting like their relationship is the entire plot of the season. And she's not a plot device lol

i read some posts that claimed that the leaked scenes had better songs then the ones we saw in act 1. any anon here can cofirm?

It’s been 3 eps

they were the same expect for the KDA music instead of Get Jinxed. episode 4 and 5 have placeholder musics.

Nah there was just a slight change during the smeech sevika fight

episode 1, they changed them both for the worse, the others were about the same

I just need leblanc to appear, fuck all the dyke shit

100% I can’t hear it now in the leaks is such a better fit.

no stakes in the writing, the scenes are very cliche and sloppy (think jinx's tear giving away her position to Vi) (3 deus ex scenes in a row during the "assassination attempt") (heimerdinger is jar jar binks now)
delusional

I want demon hunting adventures with Yone, and guest appearances from Yasuo and Shen and the named demons like Noct, Eve, etc

dude I love Ekko and can admit that mohawk looked like ass. I don't like the nigger stereotype hair but it's definitely better to what we had. There was even a test model or art that Fortiche did for Ekko with the mohawk and it looked like ASS

also Ekko was a gangleader with a heart of gold in the games as well

Yeah, they're the same.

Except 1 side has clean water and the other doesn't. One side have all the cultural centers and the other has factories. One side have luxury and the other poverty.

Piltover profits off of Zaun. Sure, every now and then they throw some shekels and pity projects to make life a little better in Zaun but that's only when the Piltover elite are in a good mood.

There is no better way of saying "i'm not happy" than crime. And this goes beyond that. This is Zaun saying "we do all the work, so we should be the ones benefiting".

People only want the status quo when it benefits them. The US voted for Trump not because they believe he'll fix things but because the way things are were considered shit by people and they want to gamble on whether a system shock will improve or ruin life.

She will, but I don't know if she'll show her face directly.
This bit from the trailers is clearly her, but she seems to be morphing into someone else (Mel maybe).
Amara from Episode 3 was probably meant to be a Leblanc as well, with that voice she had being the Arcane Leblanc we'll be getting.

Her lips are weird. It’s the only thing I think of every time she’s on screen they’re wrinkly and ew

?

two replies say that nothing changed

two replies say that a lot changed

hmmm

Fuhrer Caitlyn will take over the cesspool of Zaun and then force Vi to be her personal sextoy.

1637042494133.jpg - 2048x2010, 370.99K

It was Vander who started the riot that killed her original parents. Piltover was protecting thei territory

Leblanc has the ability to take over any of her followers who use her power. It's part of being in the Black Rose. The only way to avoid it is to have your own power like Cassio, Vlad and Elise.

I'm actually pretty hopeful that the show will decide on Noxus as their next big Riot Project and we'll get a cameo of Swain or Leblanc. Hell, I can see Darius coming to Noxus directly to drag Ambessa back.

Actually the vo with the new actress is so much better than what was in the leaks. Trans or non trans the second one knocked the recording out of the park. 100% better angle for the character

For real the mohawk was complete shit. I have a black friend who said Ekko was Indian because " No black person has hair like that"

His new design is better on every metric unless you hate dreads for some reason.

still 0 (zero) mention of Camille or Clan Ferros

So are they just going to ignore her completely? Will Riot just fix her lore themselves? Will they delete her out of the lore?

explain what hoyl justification she had to kill the firelights

also while you're at it, explain why Viktor, deserved to die in that explosion of the council

and while you're at it, also explain why she kept helping the guy who kept Zaun in a state of fear while creating orphans instead of helping her friend, who cared so much for her, and went to rescue her until he was slapped, and that was actually trying to give the people something to live for (aside of water, shelter, breathable air...)

146304496

Careful, the Anon Babble connoisseurs insist that anything changed was better before.

Where are Vi’s tattoos

Certainly. Even if Fortiche and Arcane are done, I think Noxus and the Ionian invasion would easily be the next best option to focus on for a new series.
Get to carry off of the stuff Arcane established, but then add in more of the non-magic supernatural stuff like the demons and spiritual world Ionian mumbo jumbo.

1637685196594.jpg - 1280x1050, 94.42K

Mel mentions Ferros in season 1

explain what hoyl justification she had to kill the firelights

Self defense.

explain why Viktor, deserved to die in that explosion of the council

He didn't, but if you had the ability to bomb an entire room full of the people actively making millions of lives shit would you stop because there will be collateral damage?

also explain why she kept helping the guy who kept Zaun in a state of fear

Silco was the only thing keeping Zaun from being an absolute shithole though, did you even watch the show? There's an entire music video montage right at the start of episode 2 showing just how bad shit is now that Silco is dead.

Clan Ferros

arent they in the destroyed council room when caitlyn becomes dictator in episode 3?

Why didn't the Zaunites pray to Janna PBUH (Peace be upon her) and let her destroy Piltover with her thunderous storm power as a divine retribution?

Reminder that Vi’s design in the game proper means that she canonically gets feminized from long term exposure to Cait

So, why are the fish guy and the shield guy nameless and voiceless characters? feels so out of place to have them be part of the core team with NO info on either of the two and barely any character work

shoots a gun out of the hand of some human shield that is protecting a terrorist with over a dozen confirmed kills in her acts of anarchy

"what a nazi shes lost all morals"

We may be leaping to a few conclusions

This is clearly the VAs headcanon

Yeah but they haven't mentioned them since, nor have they even addressed the whole Camille not being able to exist thing.
There's a bunch of important families, but none of them looked like Clan Ferros.

Their names are Steb and Loris apparently.

Screenshot_4.png - 441x708, 547.98K

Easy, but you need to answer my question also.

Are you actually retarded?

explain what hoyl justification she had to kill the firelights

They're a rival gang that actively opposes drug running and whatever other enterprises Silco uses to control the Undercity. They are literally enemies

also while you're at it, explain why Viktor, deserved to die in that explosion of the council

Viktor isn't a councilor and Jinx wasn't trying to avoid collateral damage. The rocket was meant to antagonize just like an angry person might just start swinging fists.

and while you're at it, also explain why she kept helping the guy who kept Zaun in a state of fear while creating orphans instead of helping her friend, who cared so much for her, and went to rescue her until he was slapped, and that was actually trying to give the people something to live for (aside of water, shelter, breathable air...)

Zaun being a shit hole filled with criminals BEFORE Silco meant that any "nice" ways of improving the city were next to impossible. Silco was a kingpin, he flooded the streets with Shimmer because he wanted money and anyone with money could buy shimmer. Zaun has no shortage of people. What made Silco different was that he was a Revolutionary. He wanted Zaun to gain independence and Shimmer allowed him both the capital, connections and resources to actually contend with Piltover. He had the Sheriff in his pocket and used the Hexgates to move his product out of city as well. Under Silco, people with a knack and drive for crime could rise up and gain power.

Self defense.

firelights never attacked her. THey just wanted to destroy the shimmer. Also firelights never went for the kill. They had their restraining rocks to destroy the material with as little violence as possible. Self defense is a lousy justification for murdering a person who wasn't aiming for a fight

would you stop because there will be collateral damage?

yes, that's what any good person would do

Silco was the only thing keeping Zaun from being an absolute shithole though

Please... Even Silco himself admits that Zaun hadn't had any real development in the seven years he was in power in Season 1. In this same Season Sevika tells Jinx SIlco could never join the lanes as one which means he wasn't eve a real leader, just a gangster in charge of a territory

Reminder that Vi has been having heterosexual intercourse with Loris since Cait broke up with her

Fish guy looks like silco

yes, that's what any good person would do

You're actually retarded.

She doesn't have the power for it.
She's the type of spirit/god that relies on worship to maintain power.

Worshipped in Shurima, strong

This port town moves towards tech advancement and becomes a new nation, stops worshipping her, weakened

Urchins in the undercity pray to her for clean air, returning power

Even if she finally got all her power back, I don't know if she'd really try to kill all the pilties or anything.

Janna Level 2.jpg - 2048x1024, 284.62K

Are you actually retarded?

No, but you definitely are since all your answers literally proved the point that both Jinx and Silco were bad people, so thanks.

Ekkucks crawling out of the woodwork

Jinx blowing up the mural of Janna released a mighty gust of wind (Janna R) that pushed away Vi and Cait so Jinx and crew could escape

Said wind also carried the Zaun Grey (green) up to Piltover

Certain Zaunites like Silco and Jinx have a very strong resistance to the Zaun Grey

This could be considered a blessing by Janna to strong individuals or those who can shape the undercity

Definitely reading into things but its more fun that way

So you're saying the green Gray is Janna's fart?

So Warwick can fuck everyone up and Singed can gloat that his chem monster is better than everyone else’s.

Any good soundtrack hits like the first season?

Are they going to fuck up Warwick's design?

the song that plays during the sisters' fight in ep3 is great
I wanna know what it's called

Who is the strongest character in the series by lore?
Ambessa maybe

Any figure/toy collectors in here? Because they teased a 1/6 scale Hot Toys Jinx figure and I'm about to drop money on that dumb shit. Think they'll make Vi and Caitlyn too?

Jinx LoL Art.jpg - 2000x1180, 262.5K

it's literal slop, I can't remember a single music beat in S2 whereas Snakes, Guns for Hire, and Goodbye were instant classics in S1
Granted, only the first three episodes so there's more time for "hits" but S2 is so off putting because it cannot fucking stop trying to have a soundtrack "hit". Every single episode so far has opened with a musical montage and they just bombard you with mediocre music rather than having specific good songs at the right times

Are you delusional, trolling or do you not know how revolutions begin?

Do you consider the Founding Fathers bad people because that struck back at their masters?

Do you think the Palestine-Israel isn't justifiable on both sides?

Do you think a society has a right to fight back against an unjust ruler by any means neccesary?

Depending on your answer, you might be retarded

Black rose shit look overpowered

Warwick's final form is basically immortal with Wolverine tier regeneration.

I'm guessing Singed wants to use Warwick's blood to cure his daughter AND protect his lab.

If you count LeBlanc then it's her by far.

Well i mean Champions that show up so far
Is she? Isnt she just a magician

MORE ROCKETS

Physically? Ambessa > Sevika > Vi > Vander probably
Generic "power ranking"? Viktor at the end of this season (probably) > Jinx > Jayce > Vi. If you count the Black Rose assassins as proof of Leblanc's presence, Leblanc is head and shoulders above everyone else in the show. If you subscribe to the theory that the mage in Jayce's flashback was Ryze, him > LB > everyone else

The woodkid one

Is there any explanation for how the fuck this whole "Zaun vs. Piltover" thing started?

Well, yeah its magic.

Arcane made magic super strong which is how it should be really. All the league champs are exceptional beings so it makes sense that a level 1 Leblanc could body pretty much everyone but Ambessa

I don't think there is anyone who can take Ambessa in straight up 1v1. tricks not included.

Arcane ending epilogue

Sevika hosting a new chembaron council

Jayce hosting a new Pilt council

In walks Renata as the newest chembaron (her gang dresses liike pharmacists)

Camille walks and hands Jayce a blueprint for a full body replacement

To Ashes And Blood has a prayer to Janna in the lyrics, Jinx poses right in front of a mural of her while firing a rocket, her life is spared on Janna's altar, and she's the one who dealt with the Grey. I think her being Janna's favorite is something genuinely implied at this point. Especially with the bluebird thing.

Janna Chant.png - 463x301, 21.33K

I think Vi is stronger than Sevika and i dont get this Viktor thing isnt he.just an evil robot?

She must at some point. Either that or she's gonna be secretly Sevika

when I heard Lest's voice

iirc:
the entire city is just the city-state of Piltover. Over time, the affluent and better-maintained section of the city forgot/ignored the shittier part of city, like any real-life city. Their industry and inventions also resulted in toxic byproducts and factories that ended up being in the shittier parts of town.
Because the nation's leadership ignores the fuck out of the crime-ridden shithole that is the undercity district, Vander and Silco led a failed rebellion to become a sovereign state. After it failed, Vander gave up and Silco became a crime lord in an effort to build enough influence & resources to try again.

At the time of the show "Zaun" is just a secessionist movement and the undercity is Piltover's ghetto slum. It's like the nice parts of LA being in a war with Skid Row.

Sevika and Renata backstories are way too different to be the same person

that's fucking awesome

Yeah,

A city was founded over a natural canal. This canal allowed for it to florish as a trade hub. One side housed the aristocrats, merchants, markets and academies while the other housed the labourers, factories and shipping yards.

Things were good with people freely going across the bridge. Catastrophe strikes and the laborer side collapses into itself. Zaun is now BENEATH Piltover. You have to take stairs or an elevator after crossing the bridge.

Gases and wastes begin to naturally accumulate in Zaun as the wealth gap widens between the 2 cities. More factories in Zaun, more academies and arts in Piltover.

Naturally, as they were on the wrong side of the bridge, Zaunites are not happy with the state of affairs.

LMAOO THE BROW RIDGE ON THAT MAN

lmaoooo.png - 340x340, 217.5K

Pilties are considered to be godless heretics for choosing science and technology over her divine power. So Janna wouldn't have any problem destroying them.

This

I am so hoping we get a scene of some crazed preacher holding Jinx down and telling her she's the chose one while the camera flashes to murals of Janna and her bluebird

Theory: the hex reactor explodes and causes the flood

I think Vi is stronger than Sevika

I recall Vi getting her ass beat by Sevika without her gauntlets, but that might have been me misremembering and Sevika had her chemtech arm.

Isn't Viktor just an evil robot?

In the games, yeah he's a hextech cyborg which makes him a living arsenal. In the show he's some kind of Dr Manhattan magic-borg which, I assume, still puts him above Jinx.

You know League lore isn't based on any hardline magic system, don't you? Like I know people go on and on about worship=power but Volibear is currently at the height of his power and he has a lot fewer followers than before. Ornn is a recluse but he's still strong. I know about the fading icon but the reality is that this fictional world is more like Tolkien than DnD. The gods do not need followers to be strong and the Etherfiend is not this big bad second death that people think it is.
Riot is very much trying to copy real life religions and mythologies so the best analogy you can on how the power system works between gods and worship would be the elves in lotr. As time went on they went into recess and secluded themselves, and diminished, thus people forgot about them.

Is Janna stronger than LeBlanc?

LeBlanc and Ryze

Warwick

toss up between the rest

Cait

Leaker here in the final Episodes Ryse shows up and solves everything

She's got SO MUCH SHIT under her thumb, but at the same time she's just CONSTANTLY FUCKING UP. Just time after time making more and more problems for herself.

LeBlanc can teleport and create copies of herself, she's an immortal mage that has a bunch of bullshit magic at her disposal, Cait wouldn't even be able to see her before she gets killed.

i mean lamb and wolf are based on bitchass spirits from british columbia worshipped by spear chuckers and shit eaters

Does she?
I dont get LB powers like Ryse is pretty clear how powerful he is with all overwhelming magic that he has while LB just seens as a trickster and thats it

jinx is janna's favorite

based janna going for the schizo

If I had a huge secret society that was all just clones of me you bet I'd be fucking up constantly

yes. yes she does.

Will he ever fuck again?

who's canine legs are these, don't look human, VW?

VW throws Rictus through a window and then the Noxians gang up on VW perhaps

Bro just play the game at this point.

Well but If he isnt a primordial demon some high tier Warriors can take him down

Okay

Gets solo'd by Teemo

Guess Teemo is stronger than her

Mmmmmmmmmm.

wtf it doesnt matter? if lb can handle that thing, and i dont think caitlyn can, then she's more powerful than caitlyn.

Heimnigger made every single wrong decision every single step of the way

Yeah probably not cait but maybe Garen can

lb

ap assassin

getting solod by teemo

Literally the entire reason shit got so bad

Cait would not know what to do with all that brown sugar.

It's not quite clear what he is. Atakhan's not the same as the other demons in that he's not representing an emotion or anything like that.
I think he's closer to what Janna is than anything else honestly. He's like the essence of shadows/darkness the same way Tybaulk is the essence of fire itself.
They were both Morde's lackeys as a show of how fucking huge he was. Leblanc somehow got a leash on both somewhat.

But then she goes and loses Tybaulk to a LITERAL FUCKING CHILD. So I feel like she'd fuck up with Atakhan too if she ever tried to really use him. Hell, he may already be somewhat out there if he's like tied to Zed's power or something.

yeah but garen is a mage

im going to kill myself

I'm personally jealous of Ekko because I can't dye my own dreads white and I think they look really cool.

lb has schrodingers power level
she's simultaneously so laughably above most other characters that it can't be described AND has rock bottom power level because she can only really exist to lose to other characters

Janna and Jinx shipping?

Is LB involved with Annie? I know that she went into a black rose orphanage and put It on fire but i didnt know that she was an experiment

Janna isn't really a character she's just wind

Disgraceful

Look. I'm not gay but that won't stop me from dropping off a load inside that failed male's asshole. You guys are looking at it with a cup half full. There is nothing more manly than pinning down someone like that and making them your woman. Fuck, I'm getting hard right now just thinking about it.

And she is J4 too

I don't know why they changed Lest's VA. Her voice in the leaks was perfect.

That's enough Anon Babble for today

I'm not gay

The faggiest thing imaginable.

has rock bottom power level because she can only really exist to lose to other characters

wait is she a jobber?

Rell's lore pissed me off, why are mages suddenly literally X-Men

goslingposter turns prison gay out of desperation and loneliness

a tale as old as time

The bigger lore for Annie is basically:

Black Rose wants to control Tybaulk

They find a woman who has some affinity for him and put him inside her

Woman can't really use him well and she ends up running away

Tybaulk convinces her to literally walk into a fire and kill herself

Some dude sees her doing this and pulls her out

They fall in love and get married

Have a kid, Annie

Annie realizes she's got CRAZY fire magic affinity and Tybaulk is like "damn, this kid's got potential"

He guides her, presumably into killing her parents (not sure if her old cinematic is still canon at this point)

She goes off into the world with "Tibbers"

Eventually the Black Rose finds her again

Tries to put her in one of their orphanages to train child weapons

She has a decent time there, then Tibbers convinces her to burn it all down and move on

Annie Level 2.png - 2048x1024, 1.2M

Rell lore is one of the worst of the game

goslingposter turns prison gay out of desperation and loneliness

Anon, this is mean. I post my fantasies and you aim for my inner turmoil? Just because you are correct doesn't mean you aren't being rude.

i already have a gf so i wouldnt
my gf is trans too though lmao

Bleach it to a level 10 (which is the colour of the inside of a banana) and then tone it to remove the pale yellow tones, resulting in white.

I think you mess It up a little in the family thing, Annie's mom dies and the Dad marries another woman that already had a daughter(Daisy) which leads into her cinematic

in a show where mel and viktor exist you had to go for the tranny

1637160932009.png - 459x459, 250.99K

pretty much. it's why the "leblanc is a fuckup" meme exists
Her character is functionally Tzeentch. She's all master-planner and playing around the long game. You can't kill her because even trying is just-as-planned. So when you have a character that does nothing but set stuff up, she ends up being the catalyst for a lot of other events to happen, and those events can't always be an obvious win for leblanc because that devalues the event itself.
So LeBlanc, head of the Black Rose, had Cassiopeia literally backstab Sivir on a mission in Shurima: this spilling of Sivir's blood resulted in the rebirth of the only empire to rival Noxus' power.
Leblanc created a secret school to torture and train magical children to make secret weapons: this resulted in Rell aka Teen Magneto who despises Noxus for what it did to her.
She did this TWICE by finding some magical child some dumb dead bitch had. She captured and trained the evil little girl and now you have Annie, a one-girl-nuke who is powerful enough to enslave a greater demon single-handedly and has no allegiance to anyone, and in the process destroyed her academy.
Leblanc tried making a vicious vampire monster through evil science and it created a vampire berserker that tried to learn to be nice except specifically for the people that imprisoned her, making yet another enemy of Noxus

You're acting as if Jinx is a real person when it's a character written by a the writers. The writers writing Jinx to want to die has nothing to do with the writers giving her multiple plot armors throughout the last episode.

why is my twin in this thread

Ah, okay. I wasn't sure what happened with the cinematic and her new lore story. That makes more sense.

Point still stands though, Leblanc really just let Tybaulk run off and make a child that could burn down the world.

It was Silco that threw the molotov, not Vander
They started a riot because Pilties fucked them over for centuries. They were well within their rights to go full French Revolution on their ass.

if only a man would talk to me like this irl

I dunno, bro. That's a pretty hot cat bussy.
And she's got drugs to make it even better.

Based and romanpilled

If she is so powerful as everyone says why does she not kill those fuck ups?

where you get this?

same reason swain doesnt just kill everyone despite being one of the most powerful people in the setting

Damn, the new Tulsi Gabbard champion looks sick.

Twitter, a while ago.
iirc it's from Bridging the Rift or some other behind the scene material they released after S1 aired

AU where Viktor is Silco's adopted son and Jinx is the Academy prodigy?

Viktor should be the one to get some time powers so he can safely travel back in time and suck the life out of child Jayce's dick. Full on kiddie blowjob, cock and balls inside his mouth.

What did Riot Games mean by this?

Of her people.

Please leave shota Jayce alone

why is singed a chembaron but not sevika

muhDiversity ofc

it's almost like writing uses devices you plum

Best characters of the series?
Silco
Ambessa
Jayce

i'll always push for my shotacon viktor agenda

Chuck.

fully modeled nipples

For what reason? They should've done the pussy too.

This made me uoh. I wonder if they painted the whole body.

Just Hope that the next series isnt in Ionia

He has eyes only for full grown beef

He has too many irons in the fire to deal with every little mistake. She is mostly preoccupied with making sure her evil former master who conquered the afterlife doesn't come back and conquer the living too.

the only person who really cared for him his whole life was Jayce, when you love someone you will love then in any shape or form.......including when he's a cute SHOTA with a TINY PENIS!!!!!! TOT IMAGINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I fucking wish the next series is set in Ancient Shurima or Ixtal, they're both barely touched by the lore to the point they can basically give free reign to the writers.

We did in the leak threads

Which characters are going to be lesbians?

Irelia - almost definitely

Akali - likely

Soraka - likely

Ahri - probably safe

Xayah - likely bisexual

Chocolate frosting

Not shurima that shit has explanations and lore for basicaly every single Champion from that region

yasuo vs yone

akali vs zed

noxus vs everyone

singed committing warcrimes

kenan

ionia would be peak

implying they wouldnt pair the two most attractive people together solely to sell skins

they would make ahri and yasuo a thing

Irelia

Isnt she basicaly a zombie

Akali

Build for kennen and Shen

Soraka

Dunno

Ahri

Yasuo

Xayah

Rakan

That's why I said ancient, they can make it about literally any other reign than Azir's, hell they could even make it before Renekton and Nasus ascended.

Sorry Man i cant take those weaboo shit anymore(samurai and ninja) and also not seeing furries crying for "muh war" for 9 chapters
But seeing Singed killing all those shitters would be cool

So do none of you retards have an answer about the maddie in-game thing with ambessa

But why tell a story that doesnt involve any league character?

Nigga, they already are, they leave Ionia to Bilgewater as a pair and it’s heavily implied in the subsequent Ruined King game that they’re fucking.

kennen is one of the masters of the kinkou

heimerdinger is one of the great scientists of piltover

vex was a global-threat with her control over the black mists, and came close to corrupting the whole continent

kled is a near-mythical warrior of noxus who fought alongside sion in his heydey

poppy is the hero of demacian legend

yordles are actually hilariously OP
or at least very well represented amongst the elite, since we see hooker yordles in arcane, so not all of them are ultimate badasses
why does graves think he will be the one to catch them?

One thing to not gloss over is that Annie CAN control Tybaulk to an extent

She literally feels no fear for him and "Tibbers" seems to be unable to take over. Annie setting the school on fire was because the school sucked

Because the setting is still good enough to carry it, not to mention not having champions directly involved means they can actually kill them off and then we don't get the bullshit we're getting with Arcane right now. Besides, they could still have champions as cameos, there's a bunch of immortal champs.

I don't quite remember, but I think she was against Ambessa in episode 4? Or at least Cait wasn't listening to her.
She's also cait's spotter and was bleeding out in one of the of the trailers that looked like it had scenes from the final act.

Yeah thats why the girl with Jinx cant be teemo, he would beat everyone's ass

It says chembaron right there, are you retarded?

in-game

Oh, wait. You're talking about the game. Ignore my post...

Irelia is already a lesbian though.

But who cares about that, arcane is cool cuz we see the stories of the characters that we play in the game and all their ingeractions with one another no one would watch the story of Razir 3rd Azir's grandpa

Yeah thats why the girl with Jinx cant be teemo,

teemo is apparently popular with kids, since teemo is used in storybooks and is the mascot of some pinball machines
its unclear if they actually know teemo exists or if he is shrouded in myth like janna

the child was likely just dressing up like one of the heroes of her storybooks

arcane is cool cuz we see the stories of the characters that we play in the game

Fairly sure the majority of Arcane watchers haven't even played the shitty game, there's a reason they got a huge influx of players after the first season released.

no one would watch the story of Razir 3rd Azir's grandpa

I would though.

Holy mother fucker. Go play the game if you want to be fucking spoonfed. It's a tft augment that gives Maddie and Ambessa synergy. And you get copies of both units after x rounds after fullfilling a mini quest. Fuck off. Either go play the game or shut up about it.

I've never played league. When I watched Arcane I didn't even know it was based on any existing IP until I got online to talk about it. The characters and setting were compelling enough on their own that I watched all of S1 in one sitting.

Fairly sure the majority of Arcane watchers haven't even played the shitty game

I don't know. The biggest poll I ever saw showed that most actually did play at some point.

Irelia is straight and her birthing hips are built for cocks.

1633436082155.jpg - 2458x1035, 608.92K

Hey guys here is a series about that videogame league of legends go play It!

Disclaimer:None of the characters that appears on the animation are playable

Dunno about tjat

Akali has some lines with Kayn, so they might pursue that angle since they're both the pupils of Shen and Zed.

Ionia would be a snoozefest unless its set DURING the war

Plus teemo already showed up in their arcade games. Would be wild if she was just a figment of her imagination and all the scenes we saw with the kid where everyone acknowledges her is just all in Jinx's head which is also what the audiences see.

Forgot pic of teemo.

oq4li4u8o4y71.png - 1366x768, 261.06K

You know about Anon Babble but didn't know about League? The title of the game being in the title of the show. I don't know dude you sound sus.

That doesnt make sense since the girl is what saved Jinx from cait

I hate the stylized montages they do at the beginning of each episode. I was okay with the first one since it heightened Caitlyn's emotional state during those events with everything being sketched out and colorless during her mother's funeral, but the others were pure shitty music video indulgence. Overusing the big music moments drains the impact out of later ones, too. I enjoyed the music during the fight in episode 3, but it felt so diluted with how much licensed music had been playing for all of part 1.

Also, fuck, you don't need to spend a montage showing Cait's group looking for Jinx when we saw them looking for Jinx last episode (even though they strangely ignored the huge battle close by and the goddamn literal fireworks that went off) when the montage's only actual purpose seemed to be showing the big dude with the shield get hurt. But it was so ambiguous because the montage editing to the music didn't even seem to show him get hurt, he blocked the shit with his shield. I only put it together afterward when they showed him limping hard despite nothing happening in the previous scene.

I also think the story is moving way too fast. The memorial attack felt so rushed and sloppy as a major story beat. I immediately knew that the lack of security and people getting in was supposed to be an indication of Noxus meddling to have Piltover rely on them as a military force, which is fine, but all of the shit happening for like 10 minutes into Not!Ikora Rey saying "How did this even happen? We took every precaution!" when literally zero precautions were shown on screen - it actually looked really chill because the memorial is introduced by having two drunks pull themselves out of the gutter and just waltz into the event.

Feel like the show needed another episode or two to put in some more character moments and space out all these huge bombastic action scenes they have.

1638033041310.jpg - 500x420, 52.95K

Didn't they try to make her gay with Riven during the Ruination event?

Not every board discusses vidya

Poor Zac

Ionia would be a snoozefest unless its set DURING the war

you could do a lot of stories that arent directly related to noxus

zed taking over the kinkou and killing akalis father, resulting in a quest of vengenace, is a fairly compelling starting point
with shen and kennen acting as mentors who implore her to continue acting with the kinkous ideals
its well-trodden ground, to be clear, but for a good reason: its a very solid basis for a story

the noxian invasion is the moment people will be waiting for, but ionia itself is ripe for jidaigeki drama

Maddie gives good advice, against the interst of Ambessa. She is clearly in love with Cait. If she is a spy, she's the worst spy ever

Ruination event

fraud bullshit that should be ignored
written by people so clueless that they made rengar speak in the third person like a pokemon

Zed killed Kusho, Shen's father. Not Akali's. He also massacred the whole Kinkou.

I think you are mixing up akali and shen

Funfact: Anon Babble was solely created because of League of Legends were so popular back in the 2009 and 2010s that Anon Babble kept being spammed with nothing but LoL threads. So as a solution Anon Babble created Anon Babble to containment LoL which soon used to contain many other popular video games like Genshin and Gachashit.

season 1 had a troon grooming a kid

now lesbian abuse

are they secretly based?

You know about Anon Babble, a website that is far more niche than League, and is also a website dedicated to vidya and anime, but didn't know about the game? You watched the show, the full title of which is Arcane: League of Legends, and didn't see the name of the game anywhere? Not in the title? Nor the opening? Not even in the credits where it literally says "Based on the game League of Legends"?
Yeah I do not trust you.

Well she has a girlfriend now in LoR.

I thought that was her student? I thought every Irelia follower was someone who died

season 1 had a troon grooming a kid

What?

Cait will get two new skins from the show

I don't even play her much but I'd buy the Caitler skin in a heartbeat.
I wonder if Warwick will get a Vander skin.

Ah you already know about Liana. She's still very much alive.

I don't know what to tell you bro, i just didn't.
Anon Babble, Anon Babble, Anon Babble, and smaller boards didn't talk about it when I was active. And my brain just kinda glazed over the subtitle. It was just Arcane in my head.

Monkey D. Jinx

Singed is tranny, you heard it here first!

uh huh

Literally what the fuck are you talking about? Silco? Singed?

no it was SC2 you fucking newfag

Godfuckingdamnit. I'm so tired of all these characters spinning their wheels. Thank god they gave Caitlyn a Hitler turn and Viktor has become robo void Jesus. It's fucking SOMETHING for the characters to do.

1639034958982.jpg - 1099x1727, 208.42K

jinx definitely came right there

S1 was fucking incredible, the worldbuilding, the envionments, the stakes. Literally every single frame had a purpose.
Im so dissapointed in S2...

what was the point of the LGBT fart attack from Jinx?

what is the point of Heimerdinger in this season? Hes just jar jar binks now

Where are all of the inhabitants of Zaun and Piltover? Every scene revolves completely around the Avengers I mean main characters

THREE deus ex saves BACK TO BACK in the "assasination attempt"

Piltover's arc in every episode is just: attack from Zaun? THIS time theyve gone too far >:(

A faceoff between Vi and Jinx results in Jinx killing her surrogate father in S1, now it results in Jinx losing a finger

We went from killing off fleshed out characters at unexpected times, to every character with more than a minute's worth of screentime having more plot armor than Trump irl

if you unironically like this slop and cant see what dogshit the writing has become I beckon you to watch some marvel TV shows

Like father like daughter

S1 was (writing) slop as well, just better than this season.

please enlighten me as to how, i am willing to listen

Krissi calling cait autistic again

The fart attack was a toxic cancerous gas that Caitlyn was using against Silco's people and was meant to be one last "F U" to the world since she was planning to have herself killed, but she ended up surviving and now is considered a symbol to a bunch randos in zaun.
Piltover's arc is just Ambessa's uprising arc.
The only reason why Season 1 writing was better was because they used it for the world building.

Thank you for your enlightened opinion. If only we were all as cultured as you are. I wish I could be a joyless contrarian like you

Ekko using the Jinx teleporter in his Arcane TFT chibi

I'm unfamiliar with all this stuff but is this a new hint

what was the point of the LGBT fart attack from Jinx?

a terrorist committing terrorism

what is the point of Heimerdinger in this season?

he is shown to have a new purpose helping people on the ground, after having spent S1 detached from the common man
he gets along well with ekko despite their differing backgrounds because they both understand machinery and how it can help people
you see him literally develop new machines, including a bubble device that looks like his turret, setting him up as the creative mad scientist he is in the game after S1 showed that he was too passive and "wait and see" as a councillor

Every scene revolves completely around the Avengers I mean main characters

main characters get main focus, this is a weird criticism

THREE deus ex saves BACK TO BACK in the "assasination attempt"

none of the saves we see are actually pulled out of nowhere
all of it came from people who would logically be in the area

now it results in Jinx losing a finger

she couldnt get a clean shot because of the struggle, so her shot goes wild and hits a finger
its not all that unusual

If they make Jinx x Ekko canon or even hinted in the show I will watch only Blacked x petite porn for the rest of the month in honor.

what we need is ambessa crushing ezreals twinky ass

With Arcane's success, do you think Riot will finally make that old cancelled animation they storyboarded with Garen and Katarina shackled together and on the run?

what is the difference between disagreeing with what you like and being a contrarian? Is contrarianism just disagreeing with you? Me and my partner called the new season dogshit together after getting halfway through it and we were both very exited for it
we already had 2 much more impactful terrorist attacks, this one did nothing but give some kid pink eye.

heimerdinger has zero relevance to the overall plot now

if you actually saw the first season, youd see that around half the screentime is around side characters that get fleshed out and complex personalities

the deus ex saves were all silly af, not a single important death or major injury from a huge combat scene

you dont get it, the stake are low now, we already know the main cast is untouchable this season, whereas last season we lost half the cast of kids to an accident. S2 is just another tv show

Its contrarian because you are disliking the show for nonsensical reasons or points that NO ONE ELSE has found. You just want to say "You like this? But this is bad"

Comparing it to Marvel is just a weak arguement too becasue its a contrarians go to comparison.

Its like arguing for Flat Earth.

Its like arguing for Flat Earth.

not liking the writing of the latest season of this show is like denying physics

You are genuinely so retarded there is no point in talking with you

What were the consequences of Jayce destroying the wild rune for those that watched the leaks?

heimerdinger has zero relevance to the overall plot now

we literally see heimerdinger developing from a politically minded councillor into more of a hands-on inventor who can see the direct benefits of his action

if you actually saw the first season,

you would see a distinct focus on jinx and vi specifically
the second season puts more emphasis on cait and ambessa
nothing out of the ordinary, they just shifted who gets the spotlight

the deus ex saves were all silly af,

they werent deus ex machinas at all, since a deus ex machina is something that isnt foreshadowed at all
which is not true in this case, because the action only features people who were already there
vi was established to have still been in piltover when it occured, and ambessa was not only there to begin with but revealed to have known and caused the attack to begin with
none of it is out of the blue

we literally see heimerdinger developing from a politically minded councillor into more of a hands-on inventor who can see the direct benefits of his action

how does this affect the plot

nothing out of the ordinary, they just shifted who gets the spotlight

the first season painstakingly adds a gazillion background characters populating the streets of zaun and piltover, during Jinx's graffiti attack, not more than 2 people are seen, there is no terror, there is no real world impact, just the expressions of the main character

which is not true in this case, because the action only features people who were already there

lies, the Nox guards showed up at the last second and were introduced because they Deus Ex saved everyone

Yeah I'm with you. The fact that she doesn't even speak is very lazy. An anon said it in a leak thread but it would have been so easy to pull a brother bear-esque backstory for her where its revealed jinx killed her parents in her bombing or something.

Vi's character both seasons is completely dependent and orbital to Jinx. The creators have cultivated several individuals arcs for Jinx but seem incapable of doing the same for Vi. The quality writing is heavily skewed in Jinx's favor even though I heard season two was Vi's time to shine. Just awful.

Heimerdinger was never politically minded, that was the point of that big scene in the first season where Jayce gets all the councilors on his side to oust him

He doesn't reappear until ep 5 and it's at the very end. And presumably ep 6 is another vi jinx Warwick ep.

how does this affect the plot

its literally the character development of heimerdinger
going from living in an ivory tower where can afford to say "take it slowly" to a guy who just runs off and invents a bubble-blowing turret for kids
he is rediscovering the joy of invention

the Nox guards showed up at the last second

you mean the noxian guards who work for ambessa?
the ambessa who is keeping a close eye on piltover politics, is a warrior herself, and is currently residing in piltover, and was revealed to have been the one to give the necessary intel to the assassins to begin with?
they knew when to intervene because they knew about the attack

Today's "doomers" have tomorrow's popular opinion

...And that's a good thing to you? Just shows you're not a contranian, you're a hipster.

I think the one thing the show could have done better is more implicitly imply that there was a death toll in the Piltover terrorist attacks.

I'm guessing there were civilian casualties during them but the only ones they talk about is the councilors.

and

100lb ms skeletal beats boxer with gauntlets that can break walls

does anybody have a clip of the original voice for the vastayan? i cant recall how it sounded exactly

I'm guessing there were civilian casualties

the big guy that was drunk alongside vi asks if she lost someone in the attacks as well, so there were some civilian casualties

Abondoned her sister retard
Literally worse than murder

Dex vs str
Fag

jinx got a triple kill, so she was fed and ahead

The casual yordle/vastayah racism on my timeline is so disturbing
The radical left keeps talking about rights
But the moment when an non-human person/vastayah walks in they act like an wild animal entered the room.
Really makes you think.The piltovians love being so progressive and calling themselves the city of progress yet they cannot accept an non-human person which doesn't want to degrade themselves or their culture just to be accepted by them

He didn't actually destroy it but he touched it and has brief but constant auditory hallucinations in ep5 because of it. He hears a high-pitched ringing every 10 to 15 seconds or so and it hurts him, and he had a vision of a creature for a split second. Whatever happened to him in the wild rune dimension broke him and he now believes hextech is a curse.

prejudice against yordles is a dangerous thing

while you could get away with calling some of the weaker members tiny floppy eared cocksleeves
trying to antagonize poppy or lulu will only result in extreme bodily harm, and not to the yordle

My theory is that Isha will live but watch in ultra4k how jinx dies as a martyr
Which will make her when she grow up become the jinx from league

im still on the Isha is Janna train

Is this new or an old script for the original opening of s1? Kinda sad the last thing the parents told Vi was ‘take care of Powder’, just like Vander.

lies, the Nox guards showed up at the last second and were introduced because they Deus Ex saved everyone

Speedwatcher. This smoothbrain can't figure out that Ambessa was the one who enabled the memorial attack and then back-stabbed the chem-barons after it was over, "saving" the Piltovans, so she could later install Caitlyn and martial law. Ofc the Noxians were there to save the day, it was their plan.

They literally showed how Ambessa sent the black invitation letter to Renni in ep 3 in the flashback during Caitlyn's coronation, the same black invitation Caitlyn got in episode 1.

Ambessa

How? She's barely anything except "strong general".

the jinx from league

Isha is mute, deaf or both

Power wise physically
Probably warwick full transformation, then ambessa, vi, jayce, ekko , jinx , caitlyn, viktor , heimerdinger
With bullshit abilities
Heimerdinger , warwick , ambessa, ekko , jayce , jinx , vi , caitlyn , viktor

Glad to find another believer. I think she is Janna too.

We will see in two weeks
I love you anon
*Kiss*

God this just made me even angrier. It actually would make her being there meaningful and bring something to the story instead of being a quick fix for everything. Fuck. Actually wish I didn’t read that.
Anons can cope about my previous posts, she’s super cute doesn’t mean she should be there

It's Vi's season in that the creators remembered that she's supposed to be a protag. Writing her away for 7 years worked once but they decided to keep it to one year this time so Jinx can play hero again. What really gets me is that the writing for her is so lazy that she doesn't experience any character growth during either timeskips while Jinx does.

Heimer is literally interested only in the progress but at steady rate he knows too much progress too fast can lead to ... This shit
Him being seen in most peoples eyes as an old man ignoring societal issues just further proofs how many fans watched the show but didn't actually understand anything

Those other anons are just easily manipulated troglodytes. You can put the concept of a child in front of them and they start cooing and become willing to overlook shit writing bc dawwww a baby

The only reason they call it Vi's season is cause she's gonna have the sex scene and the romantic plot and that's it.

Caitvi was the worst possible thing to happen to vi's character.

Literally this. It’s such a common consoomer-bait tactic nowadays. Baby Yoda, toss in a baby or kid everywhere

also the whole trope where everything is the last of us and all adult characters with issues need a baby to fix them and make their mental issues go away

Fucking annoying and those people actually think they’re more intelligent than us lmfao

I was rewatching the leaks but why does Jayce have a leg brace? Did he ever wear one before?

woman is important because love story and sex scene

so progressive

Yuri retards

Vi exists because of Caitlyn retard. The whole Zaun and being Jinx's sister thing didn't even exist before Arcane.

Their league selves aren't their arcane selves so what you're saying doesn't even matter. They're making vi prioritize coochie above all else now and turned her into a simp and a cuck

It damn well matters when LoL is their endgame and Arcane is only the prequel.

Good examples

They're already rewriting champion bios and Christian linke himself said they're taking the characters beyond their league selves in s2

Vi was always from a Zaun gang. Jinx was from the same gang, and it was hinted she was Vi's sister since she was released. Caitlyn was her boss, not her love interest.

They were always meant to be sisters. August literally said so.

yeah the only thing that changed is jinx was supposed to be the older one

Praying for Vi to go back to being a bruiser who just likes getting paid to beat people up. Hellfire hinted at it.

That's not my point at all. Vi exists solely because Caitlyn already existed in the game. That means that Vi's most important plot it how she ends up becoming an enforcer and partnering up with Caitlyn. Everything else around it is just a subplot.

Old script. Only the final cut is canon, but I like Silco throwing the molotov, and Vi's parents telling her to take care of Powder

we do see silco throwing the molotov in the leaks so their making it canon

only to you top!cait schizo

I haven't watched the leaks, thanks for letting me know

its kind of a blink and you miss it scene

In Vi's original lore she had amnesia and Vi wasn't her real name and the leader of her old gang killed Caitlyn's parents

I think Vi's endgame won't be the enforcer route so I hope.

They're changing the whole lore. Nothing is fixed at this point.

taliyah pfp

kek

Trannies have claimed taliyah because of concept lore which didn't even make it in to the game, not even canon

Tomorrow is the Afterglow talk. Any idea what time it will be airing?

That is exactly why I'm kek'ing

I haven't been following the lore for a while, is there a list of which female champions have been turned gay so far?

Does bisexual also count?

Trans Taliyah turns me on.

Is this the Brazil only Burger King thing?

Loris looks like Vander
Intentional?

And Maddie looks like Marcus' daughter

they got lazy with the character design

Woodkid’s

that just shows she's crazy and selfish because she wants other to pay for her own faults. typical projection.

Yes, cause Vi opened up to him easily that way. There's something shady about Loris

There's something shady about Loris

What makes you say that

Jilcoschizo unironically using "deadnaming" as a bad thing

masks are finally falling off.

The guy was "passed out" until they starter talking about Vi taking on Silco's empire all by herself. And what's up with the guy joining the elite enforcer squad out of the blue? Vi couldn't have been the one to convince him right? It's all very shady.

Writing her away for 7 years worked once but they decided to keep it to one year this time so Jinx can play hero again.

I try explaining this to Vi fans but they pivot and say that the dyke ship is what hinders Vi's writing. If that was the case, then what's the excuse for Vi having no arc in act 2? Can't really pin that on Cait, that character isn't in her life anymore. The showrunners show more priority and interest to Jinx and her story. If they wanted to cook something good for Vi, they would've.

in general it doesn’t make sense for Jinx to be with a child this season

Just wait for episode 6. Vander is back in Vi's life and she can finally get some closure regarding that.

I am downloading League of Legends. Any tips?

take your phone out
go to the app store
download wild rift and play that instead

ESL please gtfo of my board

Watch Isha having more screentime in second act than any other character but Jinx

I wanna know what happened with Marcuses daughter. I hope she is okay

Yeah, uninstall the game.

They have names. Steb and Loris

it's almost as if difficult decisions are difficult, but I agree with you that too much plot is better than rehashing S1 once more.

presumably she went back with her mother, assuming she's not dead. Marcus is old news now.

the wild rift thing isnt a joke btw
league is a hard game to get into because unless you grew up with pre 2000s rts games youll be kinda fucked. you attack and move with the same button and camera is unlocked by default and they do not tell you anything.
wild rift you got a virtual joystick and decoupled moving and attacking. plus its less toxic since flaming requires people to bring up the keyboard interface.

Oh okay,m I thought he was a single father for some reason

we never see her mother but they might simply be divorced. Marcus' daughters appear in two scenes only.
that being said he asked Caitlyn to talk to her when dying and we haven't seen it yet. either it was cut, either it will be part of Caitlyn's redemption.

Marcus is a single father. There's a family picture where the wife is floating in the sky with wings. Safe to say she's dead.

Star Guardians has them being slightly gay for each other, plus the Wild Rift intro has Jinx with her.

Victor

Has Fantastic leaked yet?

NON-LETHAL GAS

It's specifically shown in the Kiramman files Cait looks at to cause necrotic behavior. Hell, the Grey infecting the water in Zaun is why Silco's eye was fucked up and why his sinuses were destroyed.

Not gonna happen.. the music leaker is gone. u will have to be pacient and wait like everyone else

Yeah I caught that. Looks like he’s responsible for the parents’ deaths in that scene, you’ll miss it if you blink.

is there anything so undoing as a daughter

Jinx has a daughter now

Uh-oh!

Goddamn, why is she a lesbian

Is it a daughter? The vibe so far feels more little sis. The parental figures of Jinx, Vi and Cait are all dead.

intro

It's a trailer.

Potato, Tomato.
