balmy kestrel
god damn, now i'm going to have to watch the whole thing over again so i see the bits i missed
balmy kestrel
That 'remember me' scene hit different though
white lily
ahhh man
fiery moat
all my homies hate jayce
Jayce 
dull gorge
balmy kestrel
Remember me
white lily
okay but where is ekko and heimer???
dark haven
episdoe 6 was so peak
my god
@slate turret i was right about singed working for ambessa
also
is this set befor
or after the ionian war?
ivory hatch
no war crimes for singed yet
fiery moat
although there might not have even been an ionian war for all we know
arcane lore is set apart from the other league lore
gleaming lantern
Which means they can rewrite Ionian too
fiery moat
yuh
ivory hatch
it might be in arcane ionian edition
gleaming lantern
Tbh I'm of the mind our league knowledge doesn't actually give us as much of a heads up as we think it does
stone wagon
white lily
wait
so viktor is dead
tf will happen to the ingame character???
this is just a crazy thing to do no

we dont talk about what happened later
how funny
and riot gives me jinx after act 2
vague talon
we dont talk about what happened later
i don't know the written lore of league very well
but isnt viktor there more like a cyborg?
without the hexcore?
maybe he will repair himself with actual machine parts or something like that
or someone else will repair him
white lily
what will i do till next saturday man
balmy kestrel
there is only one thing you can do
keep rewatching arcane from s1e1 until the final act comes out
split sedge
Have only watched episode 4 but I’m jst gonn say I love the les miserable framing of jinx in the intro song

Don't read too much here.
neat dirge
the flashbacks though, jinx getting a friend and re-accepting her past self 😦
void knot
Arcane is so good

I think i'm a bit of a masochist.
might have changed my ringtone to remember me so i get flashbacks everytime someone calls me for the next week
slate turret
<@785172351540264980> i was right about singed working for ambessa
i mean that is the og plot anyways, so he would go to noxus one day or another

orianna
i think
white lily
did u watch
white lily
i physically feel bad after this act
act 2 teaser was litearlly just act 3 fight scenes
they didnt show a single thing of act 2
slate turret
cause they dont wanna spoil why jayce did that
or what is actually happening in plitover
ofc also no spoilers about mel
hollow nexus
I think jayce ekko and heimer got sent to the future or something
a bad one
and sent jayce back to stop it
by destroying the hexcore
slate turret
i think the future was with either hextech destroying everything or just void corrupting jayce
hollow nexus
or they saw a future at least
but we don't see ekko and heimer yet
so I guess they went to a future
slate turret
also i think jayce will use the tower to use it as a weapon, against what? idk
white lily
i want the fight to start with ending of episode 7
ends with episode 8
and idk what in ep 9
everyone lives happily w each other
and the two city unites as one
slate turret
i doubt the fight will last that long
the fight is probably surrounding jayce + party vs ambessa and cait will take over somewhere in between and fight ambessa in a 1v1
white lily
since its the new lore
white lily
the fight is probably surrounding jayce + party vs ambessa and cait will take ov...
imagine cait trains with ambessa
to know her weakpoints
it was allll planned
without telling vi
otherwise she wouldve act asap
HOLLY
balmy kestrel
I think that specific aspect isn't 5head. i think she genuinely was falling for ambessa
thinking she was helping
white lily
hmmm
slate turret
i think there is also a version where hextech got into the hands of noxus and was used for weapons of war which was the thing that jayce saw in the future and think about this way, viktor is a good person so he wont use hextech and his powers for bad thngs, but same powers with a noxian and give him a army , he prob can make a army of undead which wont die or sleep
white lily
the warwick reveal scenes was sooo crazy
tall fable
yeah right
white lily

viktor is like
professor X
and jayce like
tall fable
the blood hunt scene is perfect
slate turret
white lily
the blood hunt scene is perfect
the moment we saw singeds cut hand i KNEWWWWw
slate turret
people who know jayce from og series, know he is not a hero
bro is fcked up
he gave me a reason to hate him in og lore
white lily
but like
slate turret
he gave me one now too
white lily
its literally hextech in his flesh?
slate turret
whose
tall fable
the moment we saw singeds cut hand i KNEWWWWw
yuppp we knew it
white lily
jayce
slate turret
thats not hextech
white lily
on his left wrist i think
slate turret
thats wild rune
white lily
oooo
slate turret
diff things
white lily
mb mb
tall fable
btw actually Viktor did not know about the anomaly right?
slate turret
ofc its not 100% guranteed, we dont know where he went
tall fable
he just know about it when he as Salo met Jayce
white lily
bro that scene was crazy
slate turret
but his weapon was 100% wild rune
slate turret
btw actually Viktor did not know about the anomaly right?
yea , he only called it chaos
i think its a diff rune
that jayce is using
white lily
that one was in the room
tall fable
thats wild rune
i though it was the crystal given by the random mage (definitely Ryze)
slate turret
ryze aint fcked up
he will prob go to plitover himself to fix shit instead of having jayce do it by killing people
white lily
i kinda like jayce tbh
tall fable
COPIUM that ryze gonna be on Ep 9 to solve it all
slate turret
i also thought it could be ryze
but more the series goes on
the less i think its ryze
white lily
well see in last 3 episodes
slate turret
ryze can be the person who sent jayce to plitover tho , when he was a kid
white lily
thats true
tall fable
btw
real shoal
s2 ep 5 || https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l_ZERCKc8qk ||
tall fable
where is Heimer and Ekko
slate turret
even in his lore, ryze was at the same spot where heim saw the destruction of a city, they were in same city once, but it wasnt ryze who destroyed that city, so its another mage
balmy kestrel
They've done it really well making it so you couldn't tell who it was in e3
white lily
where is Heimer and Ekko
either jayce got out early
yea thats the option i think
and they still there
tall fable
I see
slate turret
white lily
cuz ekko has new clothing
so i think they still in zaun at the tree
trying to figure it out
but i think jayce will talk about it
tall fable
So correct me if im wrong, is Jayce like corrupted? cause Act 2 make it believe that the hextech that being used by Viktor is not that bad
white lily
its like
slate turret
bro jayce wanna weaponise whole plitover
tall fable
RIP Isha
slate turret
So correct me if im wrong, is Jayce like corrupted? cause Act 2 make it believe ...
he is corrupted, by what is the question, i think necrit will solve the question
tall fable
FINALLY got someone that really suitable with her
tall fable
and they take it instantly
yeah rightttt
white lily
i wanna know why she cuts her hair tho
tall fable
she died a hero
o7
white lily
i thought it will be by vander
or that noxian guy
during a fight
but no
also
they updated it
tall fable
cool
balmy kestrel
The rune controlling jayce
white lily
yea that
balmy kestrel
Also to back up people saying they got blasted to the future. "i won't fail i swear it" right before he gigacannons victor
tall fable
The rune controlling jayce
Sorcery Rune
white lily
what if these 2 runes are different
tall fable
bro playing Arcane Comet for sure
white lily
but theyre some entities
who fight each other to be the bigger one
and thats why viktor got kileld
slate turret
The rune controlling jayce

the saddest part about act 2 is that
vander coming back
made them be together again
now hes gone AGAIN
i wanna see if they stay together
slate turret
vander cant die
white lily
and they rewrite their complete lore
slate turret
he is kinda immortal
white lily
maybe hes there in act 3 idk
tall fable
yeah
balmy kestrel
The saddest part in all this is vander imo
Such a nobel soul stuck to that torment.
balmy kestrel
Also who's the say the lava thing effected him
white lily
yea saw it
slate turret
white lily
i think vi punched vander in the jaw
it exploded
or was it jinx with a gun?
and it regrew instantly
tall fable
Also who's the say the lava thing effected him
probably because of Viktor metal
balmy kestrel
also regenerative suggests something has to remain to heal. but that 3 core explosion might have just vapourized them.

fk it why Isha has to die
tall fable
just put me on coma till saturday 11 am

I hope Vi did not abandon Jinx after she just lost another important person
Surely right
balmy kestrel
An interesting observation also all of the 'followers' who fell to their knees sounded like metal even if they're legs hadn't changed
tall fable
any discussion on ep 5
is that ep just for Riot to tease Mel as a new champion
Mage champion
hollow nexus
where is Heimer and Ekko
in the future
balmy kestrel
Mel is definitely something
tall fable
yeah
tall fable
that should explain why Jayce and her did not even get scratch from Jinx Ultimate
white lily
that makes LB chase the kid down
balmy kestrel

Brother please

Look at the things Jayce is seeing

those arent void
white lily
they not void creatures
slate turret
void is not that shit
you think plitover would be ok rn if void was involved? the whole city will go down in a day
ruby maple
Yeah man it has nothing to do with it, that's why the Hexcore PURPOSEFULLY LOOKS LIKE THE VOID and JAYCE WAS LITERALLY SEEING VOID CREATURES IN HIS EYES
ruby maple
that's not the void
How much money you want to fucking bet
slate turret
those are not the void, where does it say its the void
huh
every monster creature is now void
great

those are not the void, where does it say its the void
It will be clearly spelled out in Act 3 don't worry

i kinda think ambessa's voice could have been better

she is a mother who cares about her family
she is soft in some aspects too

No it isn't
It's literally fucking Eugenics brother
mint marlin
Ok do elaborate
ruby maple
And the commune was pretty clearly just a front
mint marlin
Sure eugenics play a part
ruby maple
It might be
Depends on what exactly the Hexcore is
But I do believe that there is some connection to the Void
mint marlin
It is made clear from the start that viktor only wanted to help the people (yes mostly zaun but also piltover)
And so when he gets "powers" his only thing and idea is to go do thag
ruby maple
Because like, we see Jayce see the people of the commune as Void-like Monsters and the inside of the Hexcore looks very closely to how The Void is portrayed
mint marlin
It might be deliberately shown to be similar as wr dont know anything about the arcane or wild runes
ruby maple
My hypothesis is that The Hexcore manipulates Viktor to go and create the commune to feed itself
To maybe be able to open a Void rift
And the Voices might be Watchers
mint marlin
But what use is it to the core whrn viktor depletes himself with every cast
Maybe it is a hidden agenda
But viktor did try to create this community
ruby maple
He did later

i wonder who is the real end boss
This is the perfect essence of the series Arcane

austere mist
bro really said "fuck them kids"
slate turret
bro i hate jayce
they better give a good answer to this
otherwise, i am not touching that character
ever again
mint marlin
ok my issues with this part were mostly about plot/storylines being overwhelmed+unnecessary scenes
-they kinda scrapped entire Cait being the villain arc (clearly nazi references there), which i wouldve like to be explored more like MARTIAL LAW is in Piltover and we were shown nothing, not even how it impacted Zaun other than them just taking few punks down
-many characters were thrown aside like the enforcers squad (although wth Maddie bro the scene made me go into shock but other than that we werent shown her anymore)
-the scene where cait and ambessa are training was useless, I know they tried doing parallels again with her filling the hole of her mother dying and Vi leaving but it felt weak and now it would make again no sense if cait was like öööö ye i was just going with the flow
-at some point since they had jinx French revolution, viktor robojesus, vi underground (ALSO IT WAS SO COOL WHY NO MORE OF IT), cait dictator, jayce tripping on shrooms, warwick/singed/ambessa and then wholeass fk else storyline converging it got soooo messy
its kinda off the top of my head
but what i did really like was Jinx's character arc, so interesting, so well done
white lily
why are people saying mel is pregnant with jayces kid

i dont mind 2 seasons at all but the focus has been lost a bit as with S1 it was simplicity that made it incredibly good
and while S2 is still good dont get me wrong
a bit all over the place
BUT we as ppl who are aware of lore and game are obv more sceptical
austere mist
yeah.. some might say their favorite characters dont get justice in term of story arc
slate turret
i also think a lot of characters were shown and just yeeted out , without much showing to them later on, also some character developments were too much streched , like cait goes from good girl to bad girl to good girl to bad girl to "i was always good" " ohh love vi" girl , idk wtf was that
austere mist
they just combine it all, but somehow the climax is working
white lily
s1 was build up
theres 3 timezones
childhood, teen, act 2 which is current
and after ep 9-> current time
is 10 years

exactly, most of them in this season are "yoink you out, no use for now" whereas first one more brought out consequences and everything even if minor character
austere mist
slate turret
mint marlin
ye we roughly know how long it is but some points just dont make sense unless you do some serious maths
(which i cba)
slate turret
exactly, most of them in this season are "yoink you out, no use for now" whereas...
the thing is its all messed up around ambessa , i think she is being the center point of the story's problems but nobody wanna talk about it
mint marlin
you have a point hmm
gleaming lantern
They can't live without viktor
very fragile existence honestly
slate turret
its ambessa's role to in the story to flourish the cait arc
its ambessa's role to provide us someone to hate
its ambessa's role to give a war like feeling the story
all that roles were just eaten away
skipped more like
mint marlin
ye the plot was kinda bunnyhopping around
good points i need to look back on few scenes now
gleaming lantern
I think first 3 eps caitlyn arc is ok but the second one is like that’s all it takes to convince you?
slate turret
ngl, i know the script was already written, but was ambessa in the story from start? kinda feels weird to me, you can replace ambessa with some chem baron and that would work too
austere mist
PAUSECHAMP
slate turret
i was expecting a much darker turn for caitlyn
yes, but it now feels like she was just playing along with ambessa which is so dumb
mint marlin
it could be said that she is still grieving and unsure of what is happening but she is not dumb??
slate turret
nah
mint marlin
but will see what happens in part 3, maybe there is an explanation yet to be revealed
gleaming lantern
like the manipulation of caitlyns emotions was there and then its just poor because I love vi
slate turret
it could be said that she is still grieving and unsure of what is happening but ...
even this conflicts werent shown properly and its just maddie's pov two times less than 2 mins to show cait has conflicts with her thoughts which are not even given by her but maddie
mint marlin
ikr
mint marlin
some scenes could have been spent on showing her moral conflict more
slate turret
meh , ig they were too much time constrained
gleaming lantern
also where’s the bad blood explanation of cait jinx here like I know a lot is happening but
slate turret
we dont know what was the contract afterall
mint marlin
38 min truly is not enough...
gleaming lantern
they didn’t discuss(?) jinx at all during their plans I did actually expect jinx to shoot her
gleaming lantern
like sure jinx is in a good mood atm but does caitlyn know
gleaming lantern
its more confusion on what caitlyn feels more than jinx didnt shoot her tbh
mint marlin
but on a sidenote the scene with silco and vander was one of the best in entire series, that pulled together so many strings and made sense AND gave a whole new meaning to their relationships to vi and jinx
gleaming lantern
tbh its more plausible for jinx to be calm but I expected caitlyn to like show smth else
mint marlin
truly when our love started playing i was bawling
slate turret
tbh its more plausible for jinx to be calm but I expected caitlyn to like show s...
not enough character building for her ig
they better give me leblanc + ryze + asol cameo in last 3 episodes
or i am rioting
gleaming lantern
oh yeah I cried too tis peak
balmy kestrel
Could the lore bunny hopping be because they reduced the scope of arcane overall to fragment it into more shows?
slate turret
nah the way its going, we might not see a new series for quite some time
balmy kestrel
oh i don't mean time wise.
like i heard 3 seasons of arcane for what we're getting in 2 so maybe they're wanting to use the shows to springboard other parts of the lore after seeing what it did for piltover
tall fable
its so peak <:FeelsStrongMan:892376228215017503>
my personal advice
you gotta watch until ep 5
and keep ep 6 for next week
I REALLY RECOMMEND IT
Goodnight everyone I'm going to be fine
gray hinge
and keep ep 6 for next week
oh hell naw
gray hinge
i hate caitlyn
not even for all that dictator shit
but cos she moved on from vi already 
that time my girlfriend dumped me and my estranged sister came back with my deceased father
tall fable
oh hell naw
Dont say I did not warned you
lost quail
episode 4 done
5 is really good
twilit snow
isha shoot vander head off now it's gonna be replace with the wolf head
elder yew
smth worth mentioning
in season 1, jayce and silco convo, Jayce says that what made the city great is people uniting against outside threats
and silco confirms it saying how people are easy to forget that
and now with Ambesa being vilain (outside threat)
we'll see zaun and pilotover fight against her together
white lily
we'll see zaun and pilotover fight against her together
i swear that will be the end
they unite the two cities
winged dagger
this is what jayce saw in one of his flashbacks, it looks like voidish viktor with his staff
absolute cinema
so jayce mustve been brought back in time by ekko after they saw the future
this would be what viktor turns out to be
i think
white lily
just saw necrits video
winged dagger
thats why he kills him
white lily
season 2 is so much better
lost quail
https://open.spotify.com/track/3mVU7NvtY6OYslKyAnDkD4?si=eeed35a52b9f42c5
doesn't say the singer. it was nice
white lily
also all cait vi shippers are exploding right now
because of ep 4 or ep 6
elder yew
also all cait vi shippers are exploding right now
Why explode when it just means possible threesome
elder yew
And maddie death flag
elder yew
i loved ur book
I didn't, it's weird af
white lily
IMAGINE THEY GO TO PILTOVER
and maddie rushes to caitlyn
kiss her on the cheek
while vi there
gray hinge
and keep ep 6 for next week
i was wrong catDespair
well
looks like viktor's not getting a rework
ruby maple
Btw, when we see Salo in Episode 5 before Jayce kills him, there's a flash frame where his head is Hollow
Like he has no mind anymore
And in Episode 6, once Viktor "dies" so does everyone in the commune
What if the "Commune" is just a Hivemind
That's why they are so peaceful, why they are so accepting of death (Salo in Ep. 5 knows that Jayce is about to kill him but doesn't move out of the way)
And why there were supposed to be no weapons in the whole Commune
white lily
i mean
viktor couldve stop jayce easily
he saw him charging up the hammer
i think he knew he will die
ruby maple
also all cait vi shippers are exploding right now
I mean, it's very clear from how Caitlyn interacts with Maddie that it's not actual love and just a coping mechanism
Just like Vi's coping mechanism was alcoholism
ruby maple
he saw him charging up the hammer
Maybe by that time he already accepted that Humanity is something to be ridden of and he wanted Jayce to kill him?
So he could be rebuild as fully machine
ruby maple
The short one on Netflix?
ruby maple
Yeah, but didn't pay much attention
hollow nexus
not much happening in it
white lily
okay so
ruby maple
Should rewatch it
ruby maple
I mean Viktor is alive
white lily
and i saw necrits video
and arcane/hexcore
is like a celestial level entity
like soraka,asol
ruby maple
I mean Viktor is alive
That we know already
white lily
so its way bigger than wild rune
ruby maple
He narrated his plan after he "died"
white lily
i think wild rune holds runeterra intact
ruby maple
i think wild rune holds runeterra intact
NO WAY Runes are important to RUNEterra
white lily
OKAY BRO
white lily
im talking about it like its world of warcraft
ruby maple
Yeah I know what you mean
I'm gonna rewatch Ep. 6 and then I'll look at the teaser for Act 3 again
white lily
theres not much going on tbh
its vi,cait,jayce,mel making a plan
so mel gets out somehow
well see that in act 3
andddd
the fight scene ther
ruby maple
I mean, she kinda got out in Ep. 5
ruby maple
Btw that has to be a fucking Aspect
white lily
thats it basically
ruby maple
Like, we know that Mel is from an affair of Ambessa with someone
white lily
i fucking love how they didnt show anything in act 2 teaser
ruby maple
She fucked Leona
white lily
that is happening in act 2
ruby maple
white lily
i mean we see vi and jinx fihting warwick
but the fight end like this???
nobody wouldve thought
ruby maple
But also I'm 90% sure that the thing on Mel's back is Solari
ruby maple
Or at least Aspect-related
white lily
i want a really good ending
i predict (since arcane is the new REAL lore)
they unite the two cities
im so happy that we see them finally talking it out
like vi-jinx
ruby maple
Riot and Fortiche before S2 release were saying that Episode 9 is the greatest Episode in Television History
white lily
the meetup was crazy tho
ruby maple
I hope they deliver
white lily
i wouldve never think vi acts like that with jinx
white lily
Riot and Fortiche before S2 release were saying that Episode 9 is the greatest E...
PLEASE
dont let that be the fight scene
i dont want that ending
ruby maple
Btw does S2 count as 2024 or 2025 for Awards Ceremonies
white lily
i think they will unite against ambessa/noxus
and then they agree to live in peace
like cait-jinx agree mostly
white lily
Btw does S2 count as 2024 or 2025 for Awards Ceremonies
2025
i think they stop rating/or whatever media after november
like grammy nominations are already out
so i think its november-november
ruby maple
i think they will unite against ambessa/noxus
I think the ending will at least foreshadow the next League of Legends series/movie
white lily
eh
ruby maple
But like a thing that happens in E9
white lily
but to be in the episode? not so much
ruby maple
Will directly tie it to the next show
white lily
and then they agree to live in peace
i really see this ending
ruby maple
I mean, if I'm correct in that Mel is part Solari, then it could lead directly into shows for: Noxus, Ionia and Targon
white lily
i mean noxus can go anywhere tbh
ruby maple
I mean yeah
white lily
everybody talking about ruination to be animated
and they hate it
but we didnt really see the full thing bloom
like lucian child story, growing up, joining theee
i forgot whats it called
ruby maple
But realistically a Noxus show would tell a story of Invasion of either Ionia or Shurima
white lily
noxus in shurima?
ruby maple
Yeah
white lily
never heard that
ruby maple
They have a shitload of Colonies in Shurima
white lily
but i think the best option would be
like theres 3 options right
ionia by itself, theres a lot to unpack
then noxus-demacia
theres a lot of relationships going on anyways
andd
shurima-void
ruby maple
Noxus-Demacia really isn't that interesting
white lily
this 3
ruby maple
Idk why people keep insisting on it
There just isn't much there except for Talon, Katarina and Elise
white lily
i mean im looking at it at a relationship view
garen,katarina,j4,shyvana,lux,sylas
theres a lot going on
but i think shurima-darkin would be the best
ruby maple
Garen/Lux/Sylas are more just Demacia and Freljord
Like, the only real plot we ever got for Noxus-Demacia was the spy shit with Katarina and Talon
And Swain
white lily
but i think shurima-darkin would be the best
cuz if u think about it
or darkin/void whatever
ruby maple
but i think shurima-darkin would be the best
Wait actually
hollow nexus
watch necrit stream
ruby maple
Actually let me cook
hollow nexus
ekko voice actor is guest
white lily
one darkin with a big shield
then thee hook weapon one
and idk
oh the one who hates aatrox
that 3
its like a fyling one with spear i think
ruby maple
Ionia first, which then would go through with Xolaani who would lead to a series/movie about the New Darkin War
ruby maple
one darkin with a big shield
Which one
white lily
wheres necrit stream
ruby maple
wheres necrit stream
Twitch
ruby maple
okay so first
Xolaani my goat
white lily
and the flying one
ruby maple
and the flying one
That's the same Darkin
As the 1st one
Xolaani
Just different forms
white lily
ooh
ruby maple
Yeah she goes through a whole arc in LoR
ruby maple
God, one thing about a Darkin show
We would probably have to see Zoe
Since she's the aspect of Twilight now
silent bobcat
Darkin show would go insane 
white lily
what jinx card theyre talking about??
ruby maple
Also btw even if Viktor's commune isn't a Hivemind, it's extremely clearly a cult
mint marlin
i will link an article when i find it but it is unlikely they will develop new series anytime soon
said by the people working on it/in rito themselves
white lily
Also btw even if Viktor's commune isn't a Hivemind, it's extremely clearly a cul...
necrit talked about theee
hexcore?
or whatever that weird ball is that
its like an egg
ruby maple
Which one
white lily
the one where they got sucked in
ruby maple
There's the Hexcore inside Viktor
white lily
no the other one
ruby maple
And The Anomaly
white lily
the anomaly yes
necrit said its like an egg
and egg is a symbol to birth
i think
and when jayce smashes it? or idk
it represents a butterfly
ruby maple
I feel like it's more of a coccoon
ruby maple
Waiting for something (the void) to get out of it
mint marlin
obv its a hivemind since everyone is connected to viktor lmao and it does resemble a freaky rebirth of a phoenix
ruby maple
I'm still fucking set on it being the Void
white lily
imagine its belveth
mint marlin
so it is an allegory to new beginning/birth anyways
ruby maple
obv its a hivemind since everyone is connected to viktor lmao and it does resemb...
Also in the split frame when we see Salo's "real form" or whatever Jayce sees
His head is hollow
And he wears a mask
