  1. There are plenty video essays/reviews out there that all name Vi and Jayce as the POV main characters. And most of them haven't heard of the game beforehand. So idk why u r dismissing comments like that with generalization

  2. Darius (the guy with the axe) is from Noxus, they believe that the strongest deserve to live and everyone contributes to the Empire. It was initially created by the one and only Mordekaiser started that belief as he was too angry to stay dead, so he came back and every soul he takes from defeated enemies become apart of his army, even the weak souls are used as the foundation of his empire, but Noxus are trying to become strong enough to prevent Morde's return. Noxus's core belief is created by the very being that they're trying to prevent from returning. The Iron Revenant.

    If Arcane does continue, the Noxus story line most likely won't mention Morde, but damn they better have hints to him.

  3. We dont get much on Girll from last cinematc about Noxus. We only have one card from LOR(card game) that resembles her extremly so propably they are the same person for 95%. Card gives us info that she(if it is her) joined Trifarian Legion(they are this biggest and most strongerst fighters in noxus military, they are a legion let by Darius The Hand of Noxus, one of 3 current leaders in Noxus Empire, The guy with Axe that killed king and was speking whole time)

    Right now Noxus Empire is ruled by Trifarx, 3 'people'(it is unsure what one of them is but propably just human, but also there isint any rule that says Yordle or Minotaur or anything cant be one of them) who represents one of 3 major strengs:
    – might(reprrsented by Darius, guy with big as axe in video)
    – vision/Farsightedness (represented by Jerycho Swain, Grand general that comands Raum, Demon of Secrets who is everywere as Ravens that feest on knowlage of the dying making demon and Swain one of most intelegent humane beings on planet)
    – guile( represented by Faceless, we dont know any thing about her/him/it/them, just that they are into sneaky assasins shit)

    Noxus it self is Empire that lives by counquest and war. They praise strong and despise weak but not in phisical way, more of a strengh of your spirit or how strong is your will to fight and help Noxus become even stronger, you can weak in terms of your body but if you have talent that Empire can use and exploit to gain power, you should find a way…or at least thats daddys Swain dream of Noxus that he pushes forward (we all know what humans do and how they are).

    In realty Noxus is gigantic, dark Empire were you have to be realy good at something to mean shit, otherwise Noxus will feast on your weaknes and exploit you to the end (and I dont mean death because recent expantion in card game Revealed that in noxus there is legion made out of zombies). But there are also good sides because Noxus is one of most tolerant places in Runntera, they dont care about your species, race, gender, belives or wealth. If you can be usefull to Empire, you will find your place. (you still might be bullied by higher ups, but you can just grow in strengh to be higher then the and put an end to it)

  4. The actual phrase of "power corrupts" is that the LOVE of Power corrupts.
    There have been a number of powerful people that did not lose themselves to it, but those that Love power will often sacrifice others for it, whether their welfare, relationships, or their lives.

  5. Jinx is a fan favorite character so I feel like most treated her as the main focus in Arcane, it's interesting to know you got enough hate about that opinion to be notable, though no matter what opinion anyone has I guess there always going to be people to complain about it.

  6. I know you've done FF14 before but could you go over the trailers for all the expansions? They are really good! The order to watch would be Realm Reborn (I think you've done this one) , Heavensward, Stormblood, Shadowbringer, and the latest expansion Endwalker.

  7. They completely changed the characterization and personalities of Heimerdinger, Jinx and Ekko between that Legends of Runeterra trailer and Arcane.

    Heimerdinger is exited over dangerously fun technology that's powered by Hextech and literally fell into his lap. Jinx is a known problem that does destructive hijinks mostly because it is funny to her. Ekko is in the same world where Jinx blows up stuff in Piltover, yet still lives on his own as a poor but creative and hearty teen in a scrapyard. And he hasn't got a hoverboard yet.

  8. Noxus as a polity somehow unites fascism, glorified liberal individualism, oppression of the weak, acceptance of immigrants regardless of ethnicity, mass murder, meritocracy and a conniving noble class desperately struggling to hold on to their dwindling power all in one. They are a bit weird that way.

    Essentially if you proclaim that you are happy to be part of the Empire and aid its endeavors, adjust your traditional styles and are strong enough to avoid succumbing to political backstabbing or might makes right challenges then they accept and celebrate you, no matter your origin, looks, eccentricities, libertine behavior or source if dark power. But if you consider your traditional values to take precedence over Noxus, don't accept the supremacy of the state and military dictatorship, or simply stand in the way of someone smarter, stronger or otherwise more powerful and therefore more valuable than you then you will be ground underfoot and no one will care.

    Of course there are some massive contradictions. But when are there not in any imperialist political system and ideology.

  9. I only noticed it now, but did you guys noticed how Darius looks to his right where the girl is hiding while he was talking? He's been observing her from the beginning.

  10. I love Captain Farron (the big guy) he is an amazing character with great potential. He also makes an appearance in the Guardians of the Ancient cinematic, you should check it out. I really hope that one day Benn Farron will become a champion..

  11. Day 1,098 of recommending Metal Gear Solid 5 Red Band Trailer (E3 2013 ). It's been an arduous task, but I believe I am finally starting to tear down her defenses.

  12. Don't worry those who are angry because they see jinx as a villain because that how she gpt introduced in the game.. Those people are the one who dont read the lore haha.. When jinx came out to the league i main her because i love crazy one i also main jhin another crazy one haha.. In the game there are voice line to jinx from the other characters in game saying that it was her fault.. That there was explosion. And all this voice line exist even arcane was not introduce to us yet. So you will be curious what those voice line in game means.

  13. Noxus appears to be a mix of the French revolution and an Italian city state. They want to overturn monarchs but install an anarco-society where the strong rule in theory but is likely ruled by a oligarchy of powerful family's like the madarda's .

  14. 0:20 in your defense, it's all the same world. So potato potato….

    7:50 yeah lore wise when it's straight computing power, Ekko and Jinx are top 5 (i'd argue top 3. Swain and Heimie just know more stuff than the rest)

    10:01 he's Darius one of the trifarix (3 leaders who govern noxus)

    12:25 we don't know more about her, but Noxus has many stories that are kinda similar. Maybe you'd like the story behind Riven? Since it combines Ionia (with the forest guardian) with noxus?

    Noxus is very individualistic, expansive, militaristic etc. They used to be portrayed as the bad guys but they're complex because everyone is useful in their society in someway and accepted and respected for it. So they don't discriminate etc. Power must be earned through competence, but if you're competent (no matter in what) you'll be rewarded for it. In some ways it's the ideal libertarian society. Outsiders of course only see the militaristic part. (I kind of have an idealistic crush on Noxus)

  15. I don't think it's because there is a player/non gamer divide in terms of opinion of Jinx, but rather that your emotional connection to her changes your opinion on the other characters choices and opinions. Such as saying the kidnapping of Vi is her abandoning Powder again, while you know what happened in that alley, it is still an abandonment because, as you say, it is from Powder's perspective to a degree and as such your reactions are painted through her eyes in a way.
    What I think may have happened is that there are people who were either more impartial to the characters direction of growth, people who enjoyed watching Powders fall to the dark side or people who were more sympathetic to other characters who took issue with some of your points in the reactions

  16. I don’t know if you’ve heard or not but there’s a book called Realms of Runeterra that’s a companion to league of legends, that details the various factions of the game world, complete with short-stories, history/current events, and philosophy/culture. I think that given the amount of videos you’ve watched for league, you would like it.
