please dont talk about how many people are or arent subscribed who watch. if people enjoy your content, they will sub just chill and enjoy making what you like
i think the best way to introduce Noxus is……. spoiler
by making normal legged Urgot invade Zaun, the only Noxian that is in Zaun that i know.
Riot already said in 2018 that they are making multiple seasons of ARcane.
I always thought that after this season they will move on to other regions, but now…. idk. There's just so much potential here. Jinx's story can continue, we can see Vi and Cait starting to work together and how that happened, Noxus will 100% want to get involved (even more so if Mel died there), Warwick is almost ready (we can see him in Singed lab), maybe Camillle can come into this whole story now that hextech is popular (and we'll finally have her and Caitlyn storyline), Victor vs Jace stilll hasn't happened and Victor is still not "transformed" fully into his in game version, maybe they can show us some other characters like Twitch or Orianna or Mundo or Urgot or Ziggs, Singed is still doing his experiments, Ekko must build his time device and maybe start working with Heimer, Zaun is now separate to Piltover… so much can happen!
My favorite thing about silco was how he had a coffee mug that Jinx made him on his desk and an ashtray that she doodled on
League of Legends isn't just League of Legends the game anymore either. There's Teamfight Tactics which is an autobattler/tower defense kind of thing, Legends of Runeterra the card game, Wild Rift the mobile game, Ruined King the turnbased RPG, and Project L the fighting game that will probably be released in 2023ish. So if you don't like Summoner's Rift, there are other forms of LoL content out there now. +a rumored MMORPG in the works. That's probably why Riot is okay with sinking so much money into this show, since it is promoting a whole catalog of their games now.
I love how they didn't just make Jinx go crazy because of the Shimmer. She still was trying to reconnect with Vi but realized that there is no going back because Vi loves Powder but won't be able to love the current her and the only person that actually accepted her is now dead. She is crazy but that's not why she became Jinx, she made that choice.
Jinx was always the victim, just alot of bad things aligning
Started out amazing.
Ended with one hell of a bang.
Here's hoping to see Orianna for season 2.
I really think riot should make something about Lucian and senna vs viego because in one of the previous cinematic it seems like that story affected every country in the league world and it would be an amazing story for a movie.
Normal people: Oh my God, she killed them
Me: Enemy Pentakill
Last line in the show “what could have been” god this was so fucking good.
Well, you are damn blind, look at the end of Episode 8, at the very end, before the credits start – Jink is in the room, right in the corner, in the fucking bathroom! behind Caitlin's back xD
1:20 cmon I know u want to say big daddy's
2:45 Funny how u both missed Jinx in the last shot
Should we react to the cinematics? We have seen some but definitely not all and not any in the past couple years.

13:22 That look, that expression ,It's not a look an insane person.
It's a look of pain, betrayed , trauma that she experienced from start to finish.
A look that says " I'm done with this, I'm moving on".
Ep. 3 was the day Jinx manifested.
Ep. 6 was the day where Powder finally died and Jinx was born.
So here's a cool fact in Act 3 people might've missed out.
-Silco calls her Jinx because he don't want her to feel pain and relive the trauma she experienced and have a panic attack.
The name "Powder" and her family is a trigger/switch word for her epileptic attacks/episodes.
-Silco never used Shimmer on Jinx. Not even once.
-Act 3 is a parallel of Act 1
– She accidentally kills her father figure again.
-Silco founds himself in a same situation and dilemna that Vander was facing before and finally understoods him.
-Jinx infused with a Shimmer variant DID NOT make her insane, It kinda feels like it made her stable and stronger.
-Powder finally dies in the end and Jinx was born
Jinx was in the corner of the mirror. He was have a discussion with Vander statue and he seen what he was going Thur with protecting his daughter's.
Silco realized he could not give up Jinx and visits Vander's statue after he understands his motivations.
RIP Silco! You were the hero we did not deserve, but were lucky, so lucky to have! You have been a great human being, perfect father figure and the best guide thru life anybody could ever ask for! So rare to find a character like you these days…
Did anyone mention Jinx just killed Caitlyn’s mom
season 2 was already announced and in production
So listen to my theory…. Swain is already in Arcane. In Arcane we can see that there are always crows watching. And in the final scene of act 2, when the gem hits the floor, the camera focused the gem and then a crown, before this episode my theory was meh, maybe. But now, listen to Mel's mother. Your brother is dead, he betrayed the wrong man. In Swain history. He is betrayed for someone with power.. (Like the Medarda Family).. and in the history, swain is seeking revenge. So… my theory pass from maybe to.. Holy shit possibly, but again.. is a theory
The ending is I think even sadder and "stronger" that the end of the 1st act. Jinx truly is a monster created by all this that happened and I don't know if there was any real chance of preserving that or one person who really was guilty in this situation. It's just like a cruel fate. Jinx lost another dear person and completely rejected her past self as she saw that there is no coming back to the happy past they all had. The saddest part is that it felt totally believable. Emotions, consequences of decisions that would never be expected and misunderstandings created another tragedy.
And it was only Jinx. Pretty much every character experienced some kind od tragedy which changed them. A lot of great quotes. "In the pursuit of great we failed to do good" is probably my favourite as it reflects on so many events in reality.
The show presented all of this so masterfully that it all felt realistic and pretty much every character was believable and likeable for some reasons. Even Silco who was like the biggest villain was presented in a way that made his story tragic. I genuinely felt bad for him at the end.
This show is a masterpiece even if someone never played league and doesn't know the background very well.
And nie we have Jinx who is physically enhanced and have got a rocket launcher powered by hextech. Poor Piltover.
Sevika already looks like she has a champion ready kit. I'd love to see Silco added and even Finn since he has a very interesting character design.
I have commented this on just about everything related to this episode:
"My comment details a theoretical scenario based on a specific character interaction from the game"
Possible Spoilers
What if Season 2 opens immediately after this one.
We see Jinx laying on the ground, just waking up after being knocked out by the blast. We get cuts of the aftermath of the missile. Then it shows Vi and Caitlyn making their way back to Cait's home, and we hear Jinx's VA, Ella Purnell, doing a goofy, deep voice and says "We should have let them be… We could have just let Vi and Caitlyn be happy. We didn't have to do any of this, Jinx." And it slowly pans to the rocket launcher as the talking goes on, and then it pans to Jinx as she slowly stands up. She walks over to the launcher, and then she kicks it and says "Shut up, Fishbones!" And it cuts to the opening credits.
