Arcane: Isha Edition

That would be a terrible move marketing wise. Timebomb is super big rn, crapping on that without addressing it would only piss off your existing fanbase and create meaningless discourse. As well as make Jinx into EVEN MORE of a ship bait character who would be a detriment to who she is.

The writers should lay off with the ships (all of them) for a bit and allow characters to develop individually and organically again.

I also can't see Lux being a lesbian. She is prolly the most straight character in LOL

They set Noxus up for a reason.

They won't do Lux and Jinx. Anyone with an iq above 10 can see that.

I’m sure you would have said the same thing about Caitlyn before season 1 aired

Caitlyn was always the biggest dyke in the game

She doesn’t look like a dyke

That's because Noxus is the first season of LoL's new season system. Besides, setting something up too much or foreshadowing something too hard can backfire. A lot of people already have Noxian fatigue from Arcane.

The problem with noxia is you can’t have them be the protagonists in today’s climate because “hur dur empires bad”

Varus will be the only fag(s) in the new series. They could do Riven but that will just be a Vi 2.0.

Riven's more like reverse Vi. A weapon of the empire who becomes a impassioned freedom fighter.

Noxus is probably the most inclusive kingdom in runeterra currently. They accept anything and anyone as long as they are strong, as opposed to Demacia oppressive vibe.

That's a small bonus that doesn't outweigh the fact that they're a domineering empire that doesn't allow people to live how they want and forces their way of life on others, even if their way of life is somewhat meritocratic, in an "if you're strong you get to rule, if you're weak you get to be a blood sacrifice" kind of way.

Jinx can only find peace away from Zaun and its troubles, and that includes Ekko

She will come back eventually. Hero Jinx in the LOL game has lines towards Renata which means the 2 will meet at some future point.

she'll come back in the show, but not to Zaun/Piltover

Viktor: haha playing with the arcane is so fun

Ezreal: GRAHHHH WHO THE FUCK IS STILL OPENING THESE VOID GATES?

I still don't understand why Ekko is supposedly bad for Jinx. Jinx is a character that struggles with the idea of feeling happiness and affection due to her warped idea that she would eventually "Jinx" those that she loves. Wouldn't Ekko never giving up on her be actually a good thing for her? Having someone who actively challenges the idea of her being a Jinx by never giving up on her is exactly what she needs to stop being super depressed and starts being happy.

so is ezreal still just a normal high school student at this point?
or has he already gone out adventuring, perhaps on his way to get the gauntlet?

Lux has been repeatedly paired with Jinx for promotions, they flirt in Star Guardians and official rioters draw art of them together.
Cait and Vi wasn’t nearly as explicit prior to Arcane. They will be together 100%

He is in the city, she needs to get out of it.
Lux does the same but better.
Ekko can settle for Z*ri

Noxus is super-liberal! It doesn't care who you are or what you do, as long as you are strong and make Noxus strong!

Why do people act like this is a positive trait? This just means that Noxus allows the strong to shit all over the weak. If you lived in Noxus, you wouldn't be a muscle-bound warrior chad with a thousand wives, you would be said chad's chattel slave, working in the mines until you die in a cave-in.

So the only reason is because he's in the city? If he was out of the city then it's all fixed?

Wow what the hell? If all of the episode are like highest rated of all time. Why the hell is Christian doing so much damage control?

airship flying away

camera pans back to Vi resting on Caitlyn’s shoulder

”im pregnant.”

roll credits

Would you like it?

No because he is part of her old life and because it doesn’t make sense for him to leave

It would be funny

Because they know that S2 wasn't as good as S1 and that's entirely on writing. Maybe Riot interfering is a problem too but they can't blame their masters.

People are hitting him with logic and he's butthurt about it. Critics don't mean shit. They're gonna get more shows but deep down he knows his writing is garbage.

You mean “I am knocked up.” so you keep the pottery going

lightcannonfags really believe riot will break ekko from jinx now that the pairing became one of the most praised aspects in season 2

Jinx was never really a complete person until it happened

I can’t believe people are actually retarded enough to think Jinx will show up in the spinoff

But he's not a bad part of her old life. He's the guy who never gave up on her. Rejecting that is self destructive. It does more harm to Jinx to think that everything in her old life was bad because it would mean she was in fact a Jinx which is not true.

Timebomb reached its peak and fizzled out. She left him, its over.
Lightcannon is just starting with Jinx in Demacia. And this pairing will completely eclipse Timebomb. At that point nobody will care about Ekko and will praise the queer pairing.

You seethe because you know I am right.

I don't know any LOL lore, so I have no idea what this means.

”I’m like, okay, No, Jayce is cool.' He gets to go to a post apocalyptic future. Okay? I want to do that. But he doesn't, like, get raped in prison. That could happen in my show. If you want to talk about dark, that's how that would go.”

Wholesome and happy soulmates.

”I'm knocked up.”

here's a statement built entirely on conjecture and falsehoods and if you say i'm wrong you actually prove me right :^)

playing the “well nothings perfect” card

I cant wait for you to shit yourself once Jinx is confirmed to be traveling there and then one more time when she meets Lux.

Ekko loves too much Zaun

What if the real reason Vi has her name tattooed to her face is because she’s so dumb and gets hit in the head so often that she needs it there to remind her what her name is when she looks in a mirror

Chemicals in Zaun turned Vi's saliva fertile.

She needs to stay a whole person on her own and Ekko is never (long-term) leaving Zaun.

Their whole romance was about needing to be split up. Check the lyrics to their song. Its a doomed romance on purpose.

Why has the Timebomb song become the top track of Arcane Season 2, despite being a weird euro-pop track, when Europeans don't even play League or watch Arcane?

reggaeton beat

obscure

Listen to any song from a brown countries and it will make more sense

Episode 1-6:

Holy kino!

Episode 7-9:

What the fuck is even going on anymore

Before Cait and Vi's inclusion in Arcane they didn't had yet another rival pairing become super massive. Again I'm not a shipper I couldn't care less, I hope no ship is ever made canon again in this shit but to see the series become a mess of shipping shit more than it already is would be terrible

Also, Jinx will prolly meet Lux but I don't think they would vibe together romantically.

Because a fuckton of third worlders speak French and love being included in shit. Remember Despasido or however you spell that shit? All the thirdies in South America went nuts for it.

No the idea is that she fucked some dude during her emo phase

fizzled out

It literally left lightcannon in the mud. The gap in between fanfics count is getting too big when it was pretty even before the 23rd

reached its peak and fizzled out. She left him, its over.

when linke already said they will continue their story

please anon stop inhaling the gray, it's not healthy

third worlders speaking french

despacito

french

hey Jinx. Remember you can be a better person because in this other timeline, you were there, well I guess not really you, but maybe it is you, but vi died, uhm and you also never blew up the warehouse way back then but uhmmm, but she is a happy person and a good one, and I kissed her too despite her thinking I was her boyfriend when I didn't know her. But you can be like her! You don't have to kill yourself!

I wish Powder was real

Ultra secret episode 10 leaked

But I don't understand why is it doomed? It's just because of the circumstances? Because Ekko wants to stay and Jinx needs to leave? Is that the reason? If one decided to follow the other then they would be fine?

Exactly. Jinx was a completely broken person. She only became whole once Ekko saved her.

Come dance with me, Anon!

I was talking about third worlders in general, not just French. Most of the third world speaks either French or Spanish.

Do not reply to lightcanon mentally ill schizos

Because we havent seen Jinx and Lux on screen yet. Once it happens its Ekkover
It literally happened though. She left, she shouldnt return to the city because her arc is about leaving all this behind since if she is around Vi cant be free and happy. Even the Ekko and Jinx song is about needing to stay apart. Its a sunk ship.

it doesn't make sense how powder liking ekko in an au now means ekko and jinx in the original universe have a relationship.
literally nothing has changed from Jinx's pov and Ekko being able to stop her from killing herself also made no sense.

ywn have a girl like Powder

What a way to start the day

He fixed her and she moved on. Now her next partner will have a wholesome relationship since day 1.
Common occurrence IRL too be it helping someone mentally or to get more fit.

he changed the dynamic from Vi Jinx to Vi Cait and gives no fucks?

Vi is with Caitlyn in the lore and Jinx a criminal blowing shit up they chase they didn’t change shit YOU and the Arcane people are the ones who wanted them to change that

LET ME GO VIKTOR

you were a very bad boy Jayce

PLEASE MEL DON'T LOOK

an android footjob will serve to correct you

Really a kino scene

She looks 14

They don't have a relationship because they didn't had time for that, but they obviously like each other.
She leaving the city does not mean she will be away forever. She just needs time to heal.

war is about to break out

dykes still find time to scissor themselves inside a prison cell that smells like rat piss

Don't worry bro, she's 18 or 19.

Heal with Lux’s sweet kisses

Have a final chance to fuck before the war

Implying you wouldn't take it

He knows he fucked up season 2. He’s also not dumb enough to take IMDB ratings seriously. Reception is more mixed than it is positive. The fact that season 1 was deemed “perfect” while you won’t find a single person throwing a backhanded compliment at season 2 stings him a lot.

Perfect age for her

smells like jinx piss*

fixed that for you
and love is a normal thing to do before a war when you don't know if you are going to come back alive

No it’s not the same there have been hints Caitlyn and Vi were a thing for years Lux is either for Sylas or Ezreal

I've never watched this, I'm about halfway through the first season now.

I have to say that the first three episodes could have been half the length. They made young Powder so cringe that it's hard to take Jinx seriously. The world building is pretty decent, though. Overall the show seems slightly overrated to me, but not buy a huge margin. It's got enough backstabby, romantic GoT type stuff going on that I imagine terminally online women love it.

bullying young PowPow

Degenerate

Jarro Lightfeather never gives up!

You know who looks 14? Seeing her in a police uniform, and in bed with Caitlyn was kinda weird.

Delete this post then yourself. Taste this bad should not be suffered to exist.

if you're weak you get to be a blood sacrifice" kind of way.

Hahaha that sounds super hot.

They made her look like her VA

thats okay we can still gets tons of noxian supremacy porn with them as the bad guys

Just rewatched Act3, It could be far better and we could cope for months if only there's no warwick imo, I can find Riot forced fortiched to add cheap warwickhumandramaslop

is that first post her trying to summon lightcanon into reality?

Could Viktor beat Perfect Cell?

Jinx x Lux gonna be canon

zased

caitvi fucking in jinx piss

cellmates

Delete this post then yourself. Taste this bad should not be suffered to exist.

Fans of this are just as bad as Hollow Knight fans.
I'm going to finish it but the excessive hype is just weird. The show coasts on its animation and music and story/logic takes a back seat

Suffering

has never watched enemy at the gates

crying to reed Shannon

kek they're fumming

She always needed a man to fix her.

It means she was doing a good job kek

CAITVI ENDGAME NEVER DOUBT IT

lmao wtf is this hrt art
no wonder ekkoniggers are irltanny

samefagg

She will be immortalized in all CaitVi's fanfics as the traitor and homewrecker kek

Vi is such a garbage person that Powder only becomes functional sane person in the timeline where she dies soon

Best part of the series

was Maddie a traitor from the very beginning?

Isha was so forgotten.

yes

And the only reason that Jinx doesn't kill herself is because an Alternate timeline version of her exists.

I believe so!
Ep1 she doesn't take her eyes off Caitlyn and tried to build trust with Vi
Also Salo was going to send the Hextech armed enforcers to Zaun... Ambessa wanted that.
Not to mention that in S1 Ambessa already knew about the Piltover/Zaun situation
So she was a spy from the beginning

Man you're really seething about this, aren't you

maddie was so cute unlike androgynyous monster called vi what a waste of design

you shut the fuck up bitch

pitfighter Vi is really hot... shame that they nerfed and turned her into an androgynous for the sex scene and even Cait was nerfed too

it doesn't make sense how powder liking ekko in an au now means ekko and jinx in the original universe have a relationshi

you sound fucking stupid this is a story whether you like it or not the writers didn't just show us the au romance for no reason

(Wo)man named Lux
Seriously though Ekkofgas are ultra delusional and still coping after she abandoned him.
She isnt going back to the city, it’s against her whole arc of letting go and building something new, and Ekko is never leaving, his dream is seeing Zaun prosper.

Its over, its done. They threw you an AU bone so you can forever cope that at least they are together there.

this.

Absolutely we went from S1 to this so ya

you're so retarted. they confirmed the relationship is doomed in every other timeline except the au

did they make teemo trans what is this shit

she isnt going back to th-

“Ma Meilleure Ennemie” (Stromae & Pomme) passes 6 million streams and lands at #4 on Spotify global, setting a record as the most listened french language song in 24h

Holy shit can Timebomb niggas relax?

League of Legends isn't canon, only Arcane is.

And that is her Arcane Skin, with all her Arcane interactions.

Vi's mere existence makes everyone around her miserable

kek

It's not just that man, it's straight up the best song of the bunch.
At least for casual listening, I prefer the use of Ashes and Blood in the show proper, but that's not the kind of thing I'd want to listen to in the background while I'm cooking or working or something.

Yes, it's non-canon material inspired by canon material.

yeah that's definitely what the writers were implying

they confirmed the relationship is doomed in every other timeline except the au

meds

They're cute

There are tons of “what if” interactions between champions . Means nothing.

They're not in a relationship but they could be. The thing is that Jinx has a chance to start over with him and there are feelings unresolved. The fact she had to leave is the only thing preventing her from finding out if something between could actually work. If she one day decides to come back, then it might as well be a done deal unless she comes back as evil or something like that.

Amanda literally said Jinx would only be with Ekko in a timeline where Vi is dead. They would never be together in the canon timeline.

I know they implied that it is doomed in the main universe(which makes it hot, btw), but when did they say that it is also doomed in every other universe?

if they showed it to imply a relationship between Jinx and ekko in the original universe then that's retarded because powder from the au isn't Jinx.
what even is your point?

it makes sense because the show says it does okay!!!!

counterpoint

How dare you

They never implied that. In fact, they're always alluding to the opposite. That the fact Jinx is willing to build something new also applies to Ekko

Linke really just needs to shut up man.
Like, people would give S2 way more leeway if he's not in there fighting in the fucking trenches with people with valid complaints and just showing how hard he fumbled it.
The critical re-evaluation will come eventually, once the honeymoon phase ends and people'll start breaking it down, talking more about it as the hype cools down, making videos, writing fix-it fics, yada yada, but all he does by Posting Through It like this is accelerating that process.

99% of the people who watched the show are not and will never be aware of whatever bullshit discussion is happening on twitter
it doesn't matter

Now that Jinx is able to travel the world, it only makes sense that she would leave her life behind and establish a relationship, and one that's been hinted at in other skinlines (alternate realities, like Powder's) also makes sense. That's why Jinx is going to hook up with Kayn, you see.

Good the honeymoon phase needs to die. They literally wrote a rape by deception into that episode 7 arc

Download LoL

it's fun

If only I could understand its item mechanics. and also play against real players without looking like a retard

League is a fun game. It's only bitter idiots with no self-control who whine about it. It's got a steep learning curve though, and not many teaching tools.

It's true though. LoL is just snapshots of characters in their prime and at the height of their power/relevance fighting against each other in a "what if" scenario.

Jayce, Viktor and Ambessa are all dead.
Heimerdinger's dead too. No, he's not immortal, the undying nature of yordles was never mentioned in Arcane, therefore it's non-canon.
Jinx is either dead or has abandoned P&Z never to return.
Vi now goes by Violet and no longer has her iconic weapons.

This is the one true canon now.

rape by deception

the woman's always the main victim, let's ignore that au ekko basically got his consciousness hijacked and then cucked.

To summarize

Amanda confirmed Timebomb is a doomed ship

Jinx wants to stay away from the city

Ekko will never leave the city

Jinx traveling, likely towards Demacia

Her other most popular ship lives there and will be exiled as well

Timebomb already reached its peak, its all downhill from here

It's already confirmed that Renata will become the new Silco in Zaun

Wrong. She said that it's difficult for Jinx to be with Ekko because Vi not moving on form her made it difficult for her to find anyone else. Basically she said that Vi is toxic for her. And she confirmed it when she said that Vi living means her life is destined to be miserable

Would you consider Maddie to have raped Cait?

In non-canon material, perhaps. She never shows up in Arcane and Arcane is over, so she's non-canon.

Also you'll see people on forums and threads attempting to rationalize it by saying that

AU Powder definitely knew something was off about him okay so its fine

And they're rationalizing it even before an accusation is made

but Linke is based in my book, he just rejected jayviktor fujos and made confirm they were total bro

For starters, just build what u.gg or op.gg recommends, and read those item descriptions to understand why.

Where did Amanda confirmed that? Why is it not anywhere on the internet?

the undying nature of yordles was never mentioned in Arcane, therefore it's non-canon.

Man, it's really brainlet takes hours, isn't?
Anything that exist in official lore is canon in Arcane unless it is explicitly contradicted by the show. You would never say

ummm shadow isles actually does not exist because it was not mentioned in the show

Also Heimer did what he did and did not even flinch ir showed any emotion that implied he knew he was about to die.

and when he woke up his tradwife gf's mind had been infected with FEMINISM

Linke said that Arcane and LoL are both canon and they'll co exist. Riot confirmed that LoL will be updated to fit Arcane and then move on with the timeline

He is ABSOLUTELY a victim. He had those special moments quite literally STOLEN from him.

The more I got of CaitVi the less I liked it.
The more I got of Cait the less I liked her.
The sex scene was horribly hamfisted.

rape by deception

There was no deception, AU Powder knew he wasn't her real Ekko. That's why she says sorry when he hesitates kissing her. We literally see Ekko and Heimer explaining everything to her.

In a livestream.

Yes and that betrayal is absolutely why her death was justified and super satisfying. Enjoy the 9th circle bitch

Yes, it's rape by deception.

gotta admit. this moment was cute

Cait was a boring ass character in S1 just like Ekko. Good girl with no flaws. In S2 they had the potential and everything there to make her a great character but they fumbled so hard.

Timebomb brainless fandom is more annoying than CaitVi faggs --> change my mind meme (it's impossible)

Caitlyn was absolutely ruined for the sake of caitvi.
I still like Caitvi but it's the truth

what?

That was the only part of the sex scene I liked. It was adorable.

bold of you to assume Timebomb fetishists aren't even more turned on by the idea of the soulmates being separated and never truly happy in the canon universe

Hot...

He does realise there was no need to include either the time travel or the fantasy world stakes and that both were to the show’s detriment , right? right?

Awesome resource anon, thanks!

Ekko cucked by lesqueen

I don't think so honestly. I think it got shafted in favour or Vi going on her healing vander sidequest so instead of properly dealing with with Cait did to her and Zaun, maybe even spending a bit more time being more actively antagonistic torwards her being full regime-pilled, and give proper time to Cait actually apologizing to her and reckoning with her actions proper, maybe it could've worked
And maybe save the make-up sex until *after* her sister's not suicidal.

Even if it doesn't fix it completely, then at least she'd be less of a doormat.

The timebomb problem is that it relies on ekko being a saviourfag “fixing” jinx

There was always going to be a need to include some form of time travel because Ekko was always going to have the Z drive. I actually really enjoyed that they showed him using the 4 second guideline. In one of Jinx's suicide explosions you see him bleed. And then later on when he gets grabbed by the Viktor bots, it shows that he ends up in a situation where even the 4 seconds isn't enough to escape (even though he does overload it). But holy hell was the multiverse divergent timeline crap terrible.

She was more complex than Ekko in S1; she was portrayed as having good intentions, yes, but also as ignorant to Zaun's problems and callous (end of E6).
I agree that S2 rushed her.

Wouldn't she think her name is IV, then?

Much rather have a rich hapa who loves guns instead of some stereotypical pixie girl

this, it is like wow either you know the esoteric knowledge and techniques or you don't and suck dick.

Cait was perhaps the most wasted character outside of the he noxians.
What was the point of Caitler if her entire contribution to the plot is a short music video? After that, we never see her acting like a dictator or a commander and it makes the entire thing look pointless.
The entire season should have been her going on the hate filled crusade that was set up during the first act, not whatever the fuck happened later.

Sorry boys, I keep the fuzzy cuffs at home

Obviously, I don’t consider the 4sec rewind proper time travel, certainly not from a narrative structure that linke is talking about.

what a picture.

stfu cunt

holy cute

u need to fix

my wifey

i'm glad i'm not the only one who thought about a viktor footjob in this scene......god imagine he probably made jayce cum in 5 minutes and kept going to overstimulate him

Rare situation which Vi and Caitlyn are genuine happy

Its them having sex

You think Vi will fuck with Caitlyn all day long instead of talking about her feelings?

Which one? I watched the one in YouTube and she said nothing of that. Do you have a link to the one where she spoke about it?

ARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH ITS SO CUTE I CAN'T
appropriate song
youtu.be/LcMSFZZ-erw?si=FGqdzrt3YquFYy-L

Its her own livestream she did after it

Why the fuck didn't they do this? Everyone coming from the balloon would've been so much fucking cooler than having the zaunites just rushing out of some fucking fog for some reason.

It'd give Sevika and Scar some more screentime too. Hell, maybe she gets to say a line or something, damn.

How did they blunder it so hard? It's like watching The Sopranos and in S2 all of a sudden Tony has to fight Thanos

Thats not a counterpoint bro
She left him. Its done.

muh money and time and sheet

but I’m not cold

"We have made you feel more than you're ever felt when watching animated characters."

You sure did! You made me feel bored when you sidelined interesting characters to retread completed arcs and chase obnoxious lesbian drama, you made me feel irritated when you introduced a transparently pointless plot device character that literally only existed to die, you made me feel exasperated when you had Vi fuck her girlfriend in a jail cell while her sister was off trying to neck herself, and you made me feel like I didn't give a shit any more when you turned Viktor into a demigod and had him and Jayce become starchildren and bloop off into the cosmos.

If this is the kind of shit we can expect going forward I'm not holding my breath for the next show, to be honest.

transparently pointless plot device character that literally only existed to die,

Which one, there were 2

Yeah the romantic dance the kiss the locket with both of their faces on it all that meant nothing there was absolutely no implications there.

Vi's gonna get spoiled like a baby

They only “neglected her arc” if you’re a speedwatching moron

So Amanda confirmed Timebomb is dead?
Guess the travel to Demacia-> Lightcannon theory is coming true.

The show is literally too good for the general public and they will eventually realize how stupid they are if and when they decide to revisit the show. Screen cap this post.

There were like six, but I was referring specifically to Isha since she was the most egregious case.

If it was he would be telling them what he made them feel kek

Keep moving those goalpost people you’ll get there eventually

Amanda on caitvi: they’re together in every universe except the ones where they’re dead

Amanda on timebomb: they’re only together in this au universe, in every other they’re not

What’s her problem? She’s the one who canonised the fucking ship

S1 is a 9.5 and S2 is an 8.2 on metacritic. I'm pretty sure he realizes they fucked it with when they chose to go full MCU instead of keeping it personal

What’s her problem? She’s the one who canonised the fucking ship

She probably doesn't know the lore and only recently found out that Jinx can be made a lesbo too, so once she realized that Lux is available she pivoted to that

The amount of copium lightcannon sisters are on right now.
It will be even funnier when they reveal the Demacia project is going to be the Live Action one.

Incorrect evaluation of the ships, she thought that Caitvi was the big money ship that would be the highlight of the season, turns out that she bet on the wrong horse.

What goalpost is being moved in that post?

Our season two is amazing

He’s right and Reddit is wrong

CaitVi was done by her and everybody was saying it wasn’t executed well, meanwhile timebomb which was done by Yee and Linke is getting universal praise

Amanda is a lesbo supremacist and thinks straight relationships are boring

Basically this.
She is pivoting to Lightcannon which is the only big wlw ship in these regions.

The fact that a massive subset of you people spend so much time obsessing over who is fucking is who is like tantamount as to why our species is still retarded

can y'all start posting sources instead of pulling everything out your asses

The goalpost of season two being the worst thing ever written. Some people are slowly realizing this and saying oh wait the first act was good, oh no wait it’s good until act three, oh no wait it’s good until episode 8, etc

you realize its actually the opposite right?

Slowly realizing that they are wrong, that is

we're just having fun bro, it's not that serious

Proof?

Is it recorded? I really wanna see it. Maybe there are some other interesting stuff in there.

delusional

She wrote the timebomb episode

She wrote episode 7,you can see on her instagram how much fucking praise she is getting because of that, they're also praising CaitVi as well its just less people and more on "how bold is she to write a story about lesbians"

I dont know, I am at work.
watch the lesbian react livestream on ep8 and she talks about doing a livestream after it somewhere in the QnA.

The source is either in the react stream or the stream that followed with just Amanda QnA maybe you can find it from there.
Gl

You donkey

They are soulmates doomed to be forever alone. Ekko will never leave PZ to chase her. She will never return to PZ. This is the best and most romantic ending.

I seriously want a source on this. This is the only place where I've read she said timebomb is doomed. One would think it would be a shit storm with how present the ship is right now.

Isha is only pointless if you don’t understand basic storytelling

not the people fighting over which relationships are realistic based on telepathic waves amanda sent them in their dreams.
pic rel

She will be with Lux and he with Zeri
Dead romance

The only reason isha exists is to appeal to lolicons

Hated Isha, glad she died

post more of that crazy chick trying to summon lightcanon into reality by chanting on twitter.

Cruel.

Thank you for illustrating my point

in the end only one ship won

Ez probably wasn't even in Piltover. He's League's version of Indiana Jones, so hes most likely in Shurima or Ionia while the events of Arcane were taking place.

which character had the most impact relative to their screentime and why is it singed?

Yea
Lightcannon
Jayvik got sunk by Linke lol

Those characters don't exist in this adaptation.

Shippers have ruined this series.

She served no necessary function and her role could be seamlessly replaced by a fucking cat. It's not good writing just because you want to fuck the loli, pedo.

Stop. Isha did have the capacity to be a good character. They mishandled her.

Singed by far. The dude is behind EVERYTHING.

you people

90% of it is women, women are evolutionarily designed to obsess over who’s fucking who, why do you think they’re so nosy and gossip so much. Beyond the small percentage of men doing it for fun most men don’t give a shit unless they’re self-inserting or trolling.

Incorrect. Shippers have no control of the series.
Amanda ruined it.

The first episode had me saying it jumped the shark in my groupchat

Kys shipper

It's not that she's pointless, it's that she has nothing going on but her point.
Compare her to Mylo or Claggor, who managed to have decent characterization in their brief screentime despite being made to die just like Isha.

Hmmm. You're right and wrong. Success in life boils down to you ability to give other people what they want. If there is enough of them and its what the shippers want then thats what we'll all get.

Does this look like winning?

Created Shimmer

Responsible for Viktor, Warwick, Jinx all getting powers.

Runs massive Xanatos Gambit on all of Piltover/Zaun to get his daughter back.

Wins.

Yeah, it's him.
Looking exclusively at the main characters (title chars in both seasons) it's Ekko.

Lightcannon

Lux will be in the Demacia arc
Zeri as a throwaway in some short story just so Ekkucks stop crying lol
Cope, you know I am right

I don't care about the fucking.
I care about the wholesome snuggling and slice of life moments like Cait cuddling with Vi on the park bench where she used to go with her mom.

Kys shipper

You're right. I should be more specific.
Shippers have ruined any long-term discussion of this series.

why no love for demacia?

post the full handle you fool

No, bit the final scene of the show does lol
Cya Ekko

here you fucking idiots, ep 7 was written by amanda

aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh
I will only accept demacia if it involves copious amount of incestuous themes and closet homosexuality.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was her coping with lightcannon here too

They confirmed the raven at the end to be Raum

I miss Beatrice. Hope the Noxus show keeps her in. Have her be a normal bird pet of Swain that he keeps. Have her die even before he meets Raum to at least acknowledge the loss of her.

lol

Erm...Linkesisters? Amanda delivered the kino...

Is this real. If so good info

That's so sweet I need to brush my teeth after reading it.

Exactly, and now she said it can only happen in an AU so ship is dead

Alex Yee cannot write for shit holy fuck.

Reminder that Linke wrote the most retarded plotline possible about Jayce and Viktor, so retarded in fact that they've spent 20 minutes of the last episode trying to explain it and couldn't with all the abstract bullshit

best episodes are 5 and 6

People on here are retards who don't understand that

Amanda > Lee/Linke

Linke saying they'll continue Ekko and Jinx story says otherwise

Source?

Amanda is still to blame for dedicating half an episode to an inane shipperwhale engagement farm and AU bullshit

Raum hasn't made a pact with swain yet though, correct? this is all before the invasion of ionia correct?
youtu.be/SYl3PVJb88I?si=nlqjVzSolNxEkPg3&t=76

Ep 7 was the best episode though?

Post source. Seriously you are the only person claiming this. How the hell do we have a clip with Linke saying that the story of them will continue but we don't have one where they say it's doomed?

yep, ep7 was the only one that felt like s1 writing.

What was there to write? The overarching story (Jayce walking, Ekko is in AU with Powder) was given to her. There was hardly anything important. Also half of Powder's lines were weirdly written. It wasn't that good.

E7 was the best in a vacuum, but it was misplaced and misused in the season as a whole.

Tfw no Fiddlesticks in an Arcane show

how much better would it have been for the story if viktor never took shimmer and added void into the hexcore/the arcane
do you think we would have gotten a proper machine herald that would have been closer to the og lore or would they have still fucked it up

holy shit, i really hope amanda make it to the next League series, i need gay/lesbian/hetero drama so bad

If a Noxus show is going to center on Swain (unlikely but humor me), at what point in his story does the show begin?

swain killing black rose conspirators, including his own parents, to earn darkwill's favor

swain conquering neighbouring territories

swain invading ionia and losing his arm in the process

swain returning to noxus a defeated and reviled cripple

swain gaining control of raum and plotting to overthrow darkwill

swain overthrowing darkwill and gaining control of noxus

swain trying to rule over noxus with the trifarix

So are we finally ready to accept that Linke and Yee are bad writers and Amanda is prob better then both of them? Linke is fucking coping like a retard on twitter, ACTUALLY fighting off people who said that the arcane viktor plotline was rushed as fuck

He also said he hasnt decided how Ekko and Zeri will go right in the question before thetimebomb one so…

If that is Beatrice we see then yes he would have tricked Raum but then that skews the timeline of events in Ionia. My guess the bird though is Raum. Who knows

They'll be canon in 10 years dw. Remember how hard Riot tried to push TF and Graves as best bros and partners only for them to cave to the fanbase's demands to make them canon? And while they're not in a relationship yet, Graves is now gay, TF is bisexual and they have feelings for each other canonically.

I disagree
I also enjoyed Ep 2, 3, 4, 5, and sections of 9. This season needed an extra act.

They would have still fucked it up. Cosmic horror beats Dr. Doom-lite anyway.

I just wanted mechanicus Viktor

We still could've had the machine herald with season 1 unchanged. I think they went with the organic design for the visuals. Even though they can animate mechanical designs just as well, they wouldn't have all of the cool space shit outside of Viktor's internal world.

No he didn't. Unlike the allegedly lost Amanda Livestream where conveniently no one saved the clip, the Linke one is public and in both Youtube and Twitch.

The opposite actually, because if you actually look at the substance of the episode instead of clapping like a retarded seal over AU plotlines and shipping shit you’d see that it’s garbage. Time travel is garbage, multiverse shit is garbage, and it didn’t even fucking matter in the end because Amanda herself said that the ship can’t happen while Vi is alive. It’s literally a corporate engagment farm, get all the shipperwhales riled up over le timebomb uwu and then when the FOTM disappears get that sweet yurifag engagement from Lux. You got played.

TF and Graves interacted in canon lore before. Lux and Jinx started because of a literal ad. And Riot makes too much miney by pairing Lux with Ez in China or whatever to make her a lesbo.

7 was the worst episode.

Amanda herself said that the ship can’t happen while Vi is aliv

You're yet to post your source on this

In s1, honestly I felt sorry for vi, vi blew up at powder once after a lifetime of being her protector
but again, in mv it was fully implied how vi usually treated, beat powder and how she usually got her own way, she's a real maniac, cell sex scene was rather very compatible with her own character,
so idk, vi was the real jinx. maybe this is the real theme

Time travel is garbage, multiverse shit is garbage

Both were handled well I think

and it didn’t even fucking matter in the end

Ekko's development and Z Drive happened because of it.

Amanda herself said that the ship can’t happen while Vi is alive

Source? This makes no sense. Vi is able to have a romantic partner but Jinx somehow can't have one? Regardless even if the pairing is doomed it knly adds to the tragic feel of it everyone likes.

It’s literally a corporate engagment farm, get all the shipperwhales riled up over le timebomb uwu and then when the FOTM disappears get that sweet yurifag engagement from Lux. You got played.

Idk man I just think the episode is cool. I'm not a shipper, I thought the Powder/ Ekko relationship was cute. Idc if they get in mainline or not.

how vi usually treated, beat powder and how she usually got her own way

This is bullshit.

idk, vi was the real jinx. maybe this is the real theme

Probably. Subversion is all the rage these days.

This. Even in Valoran Town they added Ezreal to the team.

You act like its a love triangle when there are very clear pairs

youtu.be/F5tSoaJ93ac?si=YutGi1BUEX6aUXWD

Lux and Jinx started because of a literal ad

uh oh...

I think Linke's interview mentioned something about the bird just being Raum by himself, not necessarily tied to Swain yet.

They could intend to change it so he's not totally locked up at the moment and can still send out birds to get secrets, and he'll meet Swain later.

vi was the real jinx

This is probably the real thing. Amanda said in her Livestream (the one that exists on YouTube right now for everyone to check around the hour mark, after they finished the episode.) that Vi is destined to "create" Jinx so her not being there allowed Powder to thrive.

Bro, I was talking about Jayvik. Lightcannon is dead.

That sounds ultra retarded

hahaha imagine what that would look like
youtu.be/SYl3PVJb88I?si=N_rSfDbJMLxGlPBr&t=22

Sorry about that fujo

She literally wrote Episode 7 aka the Timebomb episode

idk, i think the introduction of the purple arm and leg kinda fucked up any chance of full metal aesthetics
I think if instead of that it started sucking up hextech shit around in the lab and integrated into his body, that would have gone well
could have still had the sky plotline if they wanted to as well (still kind of a nothingburger character honestly)
i do agree that it would have ruined any chance of the aesthetics we got which sucks, but I think they could have gotten close even without the astral aesthetic

It would be disappointing if Raum is tied to Swain already, as that means that 90% of Swain's story has already been told.

her live reaction to episode 7, and I don’t need a source anyway because the ship is doomed already. Jinx is gone, presumed to be dead, on an airship to probably demacia.
You have abysmally shit taste and Ekko should’ve been developed as his own character instead of being tied to Jinx, it’s retarded that he has any feelings for her at all after what she’s done and for how long they’d been apart. Time travel and multiverse shit is never done well, it always cheapens the whole setting and leads to retarded time parodox bullshit like Victor being the mage in the blizzard.

hur dur writer said this

Writers also said season 2 was a tragedy and nobody would like how it ends, implying it would be the saddest shit ever. Instead, what we got is

Vi and Caitlyn together

Jinx and Ekko reconcile, and both live after the events of the show

Zaun and Piltover bury the hatchet

Mel defeats her mother and protects Piltover from her

Jayce and Viktor ascend into gay heaven together

It wasn't a tragedy. There's sad stuff that happens with Isha and Vander, but it's not a tragedy the way S1 was. They say a lot of shit but then change their minds later. Stop obsessing over what creators say on live streams when they're just on the spot saying whatever they think at the moment.

Yes he did should be between minutes 30 and 36 of necrits video.

Necrit asks if Ekko/Zeri is done and Linke says he hasnt gotten to that point in the story in his head yet. Which shows Timebomb is not 100% locked in canon like people here pretend.

Add in Amandas statement and the fact Jinx left as an integral part of her story… things look bleak for Tomebomb.
Their song was literally about having to leave each-other.

Ekko should have been developed as his own character

But he was. Just because he helped Jinx after doesn't mean their development is linked.

her live reaction to episode 7

still waiting for the link, sweetie

Ekko should be written out of the show.

Starting to think Alex is the problem

Which shows Timebomb is not 100% locked in canon like people here pretend

I think after the reaction recently, it's gonna be. Can't think of anyone who gives a shit about Ekko/Zeri right now. They're retconning everything anyways so who cares.

lowiqeslbabbling

It probably wasn't locked until they saw the amount of praise it received.
Also Ma Meilleure Ennemie ranking status?

buzzword

I accept your concession

jayvik

I guess it can become canon if the community keeps insisting. I mean, they made settphel canon in the spirit blossom universe and tfgraves are now romantically interested in each other when they were nothing but best friends for 13 years.

She never did a live reaction to episode 7. In fact, in her other stream, the one in YouTube, said she was busy all these days and will just have time to engage with the audience in Thanksgiving.

So again, how come there are no links to this Livestream? Hell even the timebombfags should have some because I doubt she didn't talk stuff about them in a fucking Livestream. When did she do this Livestream? It's been five days since release.

All of this can of course, be killed and we can eta the L if only you post the clip or the link to it. Is that easy to deliver the final L.

Imagine Amanda trying to convice the higher ups at Riot to ignore the well estabilished and praised pairing for Jinx to try a new thing with a new character knowing well that it will have to be censored in China anyway.

A reminder that one of the showrunners had to state on Twitter that what he said of Viktor and Jayce dying from an OFFICIAL NETFLIX interview was taken out of context and didn't confirm anything. We're not getting a continuation for at least 3 years so any speculation of whats confirmed or not is moot, especially since the new show will be set in an entirely different region that Jinx may or may not be in.
S2 had such hack writing you can justify any of your ships because it wouldn't even be the most rushed underdeveloped part of the story.

I think Pascal was the missing element this season

shitskin

She said she and Linke have become best friends and play DnD together, so if she says Timebomb is done - its done.

Lightcannon will be more profitable because they get the timebomb bucks now and in 3-4 years they get the lightcannon ones. Its an easy sell and LC was way more popular than TB before ep7 aired. So it can boom even larger when canonized.

Ofc we will have some years of “tee hee they are just friends!” before it gets confirmed.

these writers shat on every ships fr, kek
dare I say honkler fr fr

using friendships and DnD parties as an argument

This must be a new low for you

experienced director carrying shit writers on his back leaves

production immediately goes to shit

Many such cases, very sad.

all of episode 7’s lovey dovey shippingshit

Ekko bullshitting his way into saving Jinx from suicide

bridge scene in season 1

Ekko being le sad in end

Imagine being one of the firelights fighting under Ekko and you find out he actively tries to save the same schizo who popped a bullet in your comrades skull.
You fags “took the L” when Jinx got the hell out of Piltover, funny how you hyperfocus on getting a source and ignore the logic.

was this show so poorly-received and quickly forgotten that all that is left is timebomb and lightcannon shippers waging war on each other

She literally said she sold him on dialogue and plot points during their dnd games lmao

Jinx having any power whatsoever over other champions' backstories is a level of hack writing that would be unprecedented even after S2.

Imagine being one of the firelights fighting under Ekko and you find out he actively tries to save the same schizo who popped a bullet in your comrades skull.

this is you

Lux/Jinx will print money.
Cute girls doing cute stuff! (To each other)

Holy fuckin shit can you dykes stop self-inserting, not every character has to be a fuckin dyke ffs Lightcannon is a friggin crack ship why are we even spending time giving it attention. Straight ship won, seethe more

Riot is actually pretty based for this, teasing the yurifags for years with CaitVi, only to give them a shit sex scene, Timebomb nuking them completely in the span of one episode. LOL

Anon, she wrote 3 episodes. For all we know what she "sold him on" are things exclusive to her episodes, nothing else from the show. You are giving her more power than you think.

I say 95% you’re a woman and thus inherently have abysmally shit taste.

Lux/Ezreal would print even more money.

Yes and she is the one who is most responsible about the romantic relationships of the characters. She had input into all things Cait/Vi and she wrote the Timebomb episode.

Catradora is 100% times more abusive than Ekko and Jinx. Its kind of insulting to put them together.

in all universe
only you btw

i don't need a source

So you don't have one. GTFO

it's every shipper vs every shipper ig
or at least the most bitter lesbians on the fucking planet vs the world

Nobody cares about Izrael
Jinx is for the girls

your ship is doomed and you're mad, we get it

I would very much like to see evidence of her and everyone else on the writing team admitting this. Surely you have proof, yes?

Amanda doesn’t like Lightcannon you don’t need to worry

You're free to discuss any other aspect of the show. Just start a topic and people will follow.

Amanda was saying the truth and Linke was lying, a shitton of names of writers from s1 were let go

lightcannon

literally never seen anyone who likes this

Go watch her reactions to episodes 2 and 8 where she goes into it.

I'm not watching reactions just for you, if you don't have specific timestamps that say EXACTLY what you're saying, then you're just coping hard.

you NEED approval from le verified authority or else your argument is invalid

no I will not engage in the actual argument being presented

Use your brain for once

yall need your waifu to be a lesbian so you'd feel less bad knowing she'd inevitably reject your crusty ass irl?

shipper with no canon content bragging about a mainline ship not happening

Wild

The literal next question after Zeri is that if they think this means Timebomb is a lock which is where Linke says they want to continue their story forward.

That’s showrunners business though, the actual writing in the episode was the best all season

most pathetic shippers:
timebomb >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>caitvi>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>jayvik

nobody cares about ezreal

Yurifag are truly delusional

Spoonfeed me

nah, I dont give a shit if you are in touch with reality or not. Gonwatch it if you are interested in educating yourself or dont and keep talking ignorant shit, idgaf

If your entire argument relies on comments from a writer and you don't link those comments, then yes, it's bullshit. Because anyone can come up with anything right now.

Linke confirmed Warwick survived the bomb and became his version of the game off-screen. Vi is seen happy by the end because she knows in her heart that both her father and sister are alive somewhere, she's willing to let them go

I just made that up, but if I keep saying "Linke said X and Y" that doesn't make it a proper argument, I just made it up.

Add in Amandas statement

Ok dude. You did right by posting the source and even times for the Zeri statement. I can't refute that because you provided the source and it's there for anyone to check.

Now provide the link to Amanda statement please.

I just hate being a guy irl

And what you said

Well yeah, because she’s actually a writer, those 2 are literal amateurs at writing who pretty much think they don’t need to hire actual writers because “how hard can it be”

Keep seeing people talk about how they trust Fortiche's writing for the Noxus/Ionia show stuff.

They do realize Fortiche isn't making the next shows, right? They're doing their own thing next, meaning the next shows will be with a different studio and in a different style.

Oh hey, I just found another interview with Amanda. She actually confirmed Timebomb as inevitable as Caitvi.
I'm not gonna link the interview though, you go search for it yourself, I don't wanna spoonfed you.

Isha is a divine gift sent to Jinx.

Jinx didn't fumble it, and neither did Vi

Jinx gets a life of recovery as a price, and her sister gets that as well

Blessed and hidden storyline.

Yes,

they want to continue it forward

he hasnt decided if Ekko ends up with Zeri

So - we will probably see them meet each-other again bit it will be some stuff like “to leap forward you have to leave a few things behind” and they agree they have both moved on.

can't wait for it to look like the americanized 'anime' style they've been using for some of the worlds shit
it's gonna be so ass in comparison man, it's set up to get mogged

Anon, they confirmed Fortiche is making the next show. They are developing the Spartan movie alongside the next League series, it's been in development for a year.

Here are the two videos where she talks about her involvement in the scenes and caitvi romance.
During the scenes not so much but later in the QnA. She also comments on how Vi fucked Cait in the cell because of prison trauma or smth.
youtube.com/live/UZVuH-P5ko8?si=amBvytseLEnhycGB
youtube.com/live/bgpWJl1NuTE?si=IzVOYp8qpYXimqNH

She actually confirmed Timebomb as inevitable as Caitvi.

you timebombs just can't stop mentioning caitvi. that's how pathetic you are that your ship is doomed.

Took you long enough to link actual proof. In what minute do they say Timebomb is cooked?

Timebomb copers are truly delusional.

linke we gotta do more lesbians linke

but no one liked your lesbians Amanda

its gonna work this time linke just a couple more lesbians and we’ll be drowning in gold linke

but people liked jinx and E-

I NEED MORE LESBIANS LINKE

Timebomb shitters are Caitvi fags who are upset their ship is being called problematic on twitter

I knew it

nigga you asked me to link you where amanda talks about working on relationships outside of ep7
I dont gaf about timebomb, this is about Caitvi

Jesus Christ are we a bunch of girls? Can we talk about ANYTHING else that isn't shipping?

Dude how come your leap of "we haven't thought about Zeri" to "Ekko and Zeri are endgame" works? It doesn't make sense to make such a huge leap when Linked hasn't even think about her or how she fits in the story. Do you seriously think that "continue Ekko and Jinx story" means they'll just meet each other to sink the story? How that logic works? You don't need to continue their story to do that, a simple short story would do the trick.

Source? Fortiche isn't big enough to work on Penelope of Sparta and Arcane's successor at the same time.

Isn’t Penelope of Sparta odyssey’s wife?

A short story IS a continuation
Jinx left by faking her death and being out of the city is a big part of her arc
Ekko is a return to the city and Zaun is his main focus and concern.
Zeri being considered means Ekko/Jinx not being endgame is also being considered

Clearly. He’s being quite the little bitch on x

Ekko should definitely find a girl now that Jinx is gone and won't kill his gfs any longer.

more like timebomb fags are butthurt their ship is doomed so they hate on the dykes that got a happy ending

Oh I thought you meant christian

what else do you wanna talk about anon
if you want i can talk about how viktor made his fagbots gold like mel
and other stuff like that

It's a YA high school drama loosely inspired by Greek history and mythology.

In a world inspired by ancient Greece, 17-year-old Penelope attends an elite high school with the other famous heirs of the Athenian Empire — Achilles, Helen, Circe, Agamemnon and, of course, Odysseus. These teen royals are competitive at everything they do, including how they have fun, before they return to rule their kingdoms.

But Penelope isn’t like the rest of them; she’s a dutiful daughter on a secret mission given to her by her father, the King of Sparta — a mission to free her people from Athens’ imperialist grasp. For Penelope, high school isn’t a party, it’s war. What starts as a coming-of-age high school dramedy, shifts to an epic adventure as these teens from opposite worlds must learn to trust each other in order to save their friends from an insidious threat.

I think people are misunderstanding who Christian Linke is.
He's not a Fortiche employee, he's a Riot employee. Him saying they're already a year into production of the next show doesn't mean it's from Fortiche. It's just from Riot's creative media team.

Much as it sucks, the next show is not going to look anywhere near as good as Arcane did.

Zeri having natural magic as a result of the Arcane awakening is kino.
New magic, new tech, without the hexcore cancer... A future worth living in.
