When powder is dancing with ekko it's animated at 4fps, which is the amount of time ekko can time travel. Also powder dances like her mother in Vanders memory.
actually something like this: During the robbery, Vi died. Because of this, Jace was still exiled (or imprisoned), and Victor most likely simply died of illness. Silko did not get leverage over Vander and, apparently, found his letter -> made peace with him. No one could invent Hextech. Chemtech, as an alternative, became a non-destructive power for the purpose of fighting Piltover, in order to improve the life of Zaun. There are several factors here that were not explained, for example, where did Singed and "Shimmer" go from this universe
Silco probably canceled and the research into shimmer and told singed to stop who then prob left to find someone else to fund his research. Lol just a guess tho like you said they didn't explain everything
I also saw someone say that Jayce might have killed himself, as he intended to do before Viktor stopped him, and that could be why he wasn't transferred to the same universe. I think it makes sense.
@@alycewellin good theory tho it also could be because he had hex tech with him while the other 2 did not. He also attacked the anomaly which could have caused him going somewhere else. It's hard to say but could you imagine if you did get out into your alternate body and they where actually already dead and so you where just like buried alive...
@@alycewellin in that post-apocalyptic universe, Jace, if not dead, then like the others, was turned into a “robot”. So here the logic of infusing another universe into his body breaks down for Jace. And my logic breaks down because if Victor is the same magician from the 2nd episode of the 1st season, then this is ALWAYS the same Victor the Magician in all time lines and universes. But when the Magician gives Victor the fragment, he has tattoos on his hand, on his fingers, while Victor, who touches Robo-Jace’s shoulder, has no tattoos on his arm. And in theory, his body should also be metal, since Victor became a magician just after close interaction with the Hex Core.
So. The reason Zaun looks nice in the other timeline is because Heimerdinger was sent back four years into the past. He says "I've done a lot in this world". Heimerdinger saved Zaun in those four years, cleaned it up, and freed it from oppression. All it took was a little Yordle with a goal to accomplish what Piltover couldn't.
Also probably helped push on the front where hextech should not be created, especially since it caused a death(Vi). I've also seen theories the blast also killed Caitlyn, she didn't drop a gadget that alerted Vi they were coming back to the apartment.
It’s not just that. Hextech was never invented in that world. Vander never died. Silco never flooded the lanes with shimmer. Pretty much everything worked out perfectly for them.
@jayayj5574 Hextech wasn't invented because of the explosion caused by the Hexcores in episode one. It's reasonable to believe after Vi's death Heimerdinger was able to convince Piltover that hextech wasn't viable.
Hiemerdinger is also still a Counciler in this Universe since Jayce isn't there. So most likely he immediately used all his resources directed to the under city. Also this whole innovators competition they got going on is most likely 100% Hiemers idea.
Heimer's species are Spirits from other dimension, when their physical form dies they just sorta respawn in their home dimension. There is a character whos lore about being depressed because of that.
@@Aaniel_al.Meara. Ahh gotchya, I stopped playing long before Vex came out so not familiar with her lore, so the first thing I jumped to when I saw you mention depression was Amumu haha
Love the line "desperation is doorway to oblivion" from Ambessa, which was all the time desperate to solve her black rose problem and also that she was in the end beaten due to Caitlyn's sacrifice which was her last lesson to her.
Maddie worked for Ambessa from the start. She was the first enforcer to bang her chest when Ambessa picked Cait out to be the defacto leader of Piltover. When Ambessa was alone with Vi, she said she was thankful since Vi's absence left a void for Ambessa to exploit. Maddie was always a baddie.
Maddie was also one of the guards who overlooked Renni (the chainsaw attacker) arriving at the memorial in Ep.1, and Maddie handed over the bomb which had a nail jammed into the workings so that it wouldn't explode... that wasn't just a coincidence.
Leblanc (the black rose mage) giving mel props with the "sly girl" comment is probably one of my favorite moments in this episode. Mel being just ruthless and pretty damn smart too. Using her mom as bait to kill two birds with one stone, even her own mom was proud of that.
@@XxPanderosxX Her body is dead. Maybe he did like he did with Vander and transferred her soul to the robot. Although it didn't stay very good, due to an audio of the game
@@alejandro_a.a no I think you missed the point Panderos tried to make. unless they change it again, Orianna's father in the OG lore restored her body, but she came back as a completely emotionless, logic-focused construct who had no love for him. if it remains that way, Singed's daughter is gone and Orianna's been created with her body.
@@mformotivation9152 She's most likely going to get a lore rework, everyone's allowed at most 1 more retcon to fit into a cohesive story with Arcane being canon
1:05:47 that crow is the ancient demon Raum, the demon of secrets, in League Of Legends story, later the great noxian general Swain does a pact or a deal with that demon, so I believe that Raum shows everything to Swain once the events make Swain to do the pact, so Swain saw everything since the very beginning
don’t worry. jinx is not dead. remember in the first episode of season one, powder said that one day she was gonna ride on an airship that looked exactly like the one in the final shot of the show.
Nice catch, didn't even think of that yet. I knew she was not dead from the blueprints of the vents shown at the end, but hadn't thought of this yet. The creators really drop more clues than you realize.
8:55 "But how did everything get so nice" My guess is that Vi's death caused it. Silco and Vander were at that point not on good terms, the death of Vi probably shocked them so much that they forgave eachother to make Zaun a better place. Remember in episode 5 of season 2, where Vi's mom, Silco and Vander are talking about making Zaun a better place, and how their plans looked amazing. They made a promise to her to fix Zaun BECAUSE Vi was being born. Vi'd death caused them to remember that promise and fix it despite their differences. Through blisters and bedrock
It also could have been because Hextech was never invented. Jayce killed a kid and got expelled. Viktor probably never came to stop Jayce from jumping so Jayce more than likely is dead in this universe. Silco and Vander came together after the death of Vi. But also Silco probably found the letter of Vander's apology too.
Ya don't think vis death made silco want to forgive Vander. I think what happened was the enforcer's never went looking for kids as they already had the body of the one responsible and so silco didn't speed up his plans as Vander was not in trouble. Him not speeding up his plans gave him more free time and more then likely found the later from Vander in that time and that's what made him forgive. First season silco was trying to kill vi powder and Vander he did not rlly care about them. Yes he obviously cared for their mother but that obviously did not go to them.
That pink streak at the beginning of the explosion that went into the vent was jinx As for Hiemerdinger he is a yordle and by lore yordles kinda just respawn lol in bandle city
The thing about that is he wasn't in his own time lines so who knows how that interferes with that. We also don't know what exactly happened to him as we where dealing with time travel shenanigans. I do expect to see more of heimerdingers in future projects tho idt he's dead
@@Raoul9753 This pink streak leaves before the blue and pink bomb blew up and we have seen jinx use that shimmer dash before also this pink streak was super straight to the vent and all the other streaks were after it explodes and were zig zags
@@Itsss.chasegYeah also her shimmer streak is a different shade of pink from anything in the explosion. It's extremely noticeable in frame-by-frame, but blink and you'll miss it.
Jinx lived she escaped in the air vents that is what Cait was looking at in the end of the episode and she holding a piece of the bomb and that was her on the blimp at the end. She walked away like Silco told her too in ep 8 , also if you go to the arcane wiki it says she is alive but presumed dead so she survived and left piltover/zaun..
She also told to the group at the very beginning of the show dat she would fly into the big "plane" and it end with this plane going we dont know where !
@@XxPanderosxX that doesnt mean anything whatsoever... they closed off the story of Jinx. There is literally no reason for her to be alive anymore. You are just taking an industrial amount of copium here
I liked the parallel between every time that a person is brought to Ekko's tree they are blindfolded. And then for alternate-universe Powder it's a cute "no looking" walk to reveal a mural of Vi, where once stood the mural of people mostly Jinx killed.
According to the creators,Yordles don’t die - because of their connection to some deep magic of Runeterra, that’s what essentially makes them immortal- something tells me whatever magical connection he has, it took him away before Ekko’s procedure completed. I get the feeling that, like Jinx; we will see Hiemadinger again someday. Absolutely excellent show, BTW. ❤. Also, if you guys love this show; you should checkout all the cinematics & music videos Riot put out for League of Legends. You’ll see some familiar faces in a lot of their shorts & a lot of cool NEW characters.
It's not that Vi screwed up the world. It's her Death made it so the council could not over look Jayce's work. After all a small lab explosion in the main time line is one thing, and explosion that kills a kid in the good time line is completely different. Also because Vi dies and the kids are "caught" there is no obsessive manhunt led by Jayce which ends up getting all the good people in undercity killed leaving behind only the darker impulses. So it's more like Vi sacrifices her life to stop Jayce from screwing over everyone else.
Also. Remember Vi saying to Jayce that kids always died. "You just never had to look it in the eye". The explosion where Vi died made *everyone* of Piltover look it in the eye. And thus felt guilty and horrified and thus be more persuaded to get peace
Yes, but i believe Vi’s death was the main catalyst for everything in that world to be fixed, the time difference between Vi dying and when Ekko was there is about 10 years. I think they brokered a peace between Piltover and Zaun after she (an Undercity child) died and Jayce (a Piltover counselor’s patron) most likely getting arrested for her death. Especially since they were willing to do so on much worse terms at the end of season one. Plus Silco and Vander forgave each other, Silco probably found that letter he wrote him, so they were running the underground together again. They had roughly 10 years for everything to get nice with everyone actually working together, instead of against each other
Episode 7 makes me both sad and hopeful. All it took Heimerdinger was 3 years to improve the state of the city SO MUCH, which means if the council had ever even bothered to try, they could have done the same in the main timeline just as quickly! But... maybe it also means they still can, post-finale? I have faith
It mainly Vi’s death that happened 10ish years prior that most likely allowed them to make peace and establish Zaun’s independence. I think a child from the Undercity being killed in the overcity by the hextech crystals definitely got them to seek a treaty and they definitely arrested Jayce without a trial since a kid died. They would’ve never found out about the crystals and made hextech, and Vander and Silco made up causing them to be able to run Zaun together
The Blackrose leader is not dead, can't be because she's immortal and a key character to the story, she will also likely play a huge roll in one of the future shows Likely the next show will revolve around Noxus and Mel's fight against the Blackrose, they already teased an important Noxian figure in Arcane multiple times through the black six eyed crows, those a tied to the character called Swain, one of the three leaders of Noxus, Mel and her family belonged to the Noxian aristocracy but aren't in any way important to the nation, so her story is far from over and she isn't the leader of the nation, Ambessa was just a random warlord from Noxus trying to get weapons and vengeance
Almost basically a guarantee the next show is Noxus, and its 2025. Mel is coming out, new Noxian champion rework, noxus themed League season. And they said theyve already been working on a show for a year.
@lockekappa500 Noxus is my fav region on runeterra so im really excited, can wait thil we see Swain, Darius, Leblanc and Vladimir, and all the other Noxus champs Considering the current timeline of events, we will likely get dropped in the middle of the Noxus-Ionia conflict where our boy Singed will once again play a huge roll
Time to cry again. Episode 7 hits deep to me on spiritual level so so badly. This show is solid gold. Top 2 animation for sure. ATLA has biased forever rank 1 for me but god damn this show was good. Also to Bridget, i would recommend try TFT (Team fight tactics). Way more new player friendly and less toxic community.
As someone french, the song from Pomme and Stromae was so painful to hear, basically it's a "I love you but you keep hurting me" kinda song, seeing Ekko so at peace is so melancholic
Mel played the long game. She used her mom as bait to lure out Black Rose so she could avenger her brother. That's why her mom said, "You are the wolf." at the end. But at the same time Mel wanted her mom to just leave with her so they could work together but her mom was too obsessed with quest for personal power.
I've been waiting DAYS to talk about this. This ending is so bittersweet, but I'm satisfied. This show took the phrase "every frame, a painting" as a bible. I love the structure of 3 episodes, 3 acts. They stuck with the classic play structure, and it hits hard. After this, I hope they get all the funding and time they ask for, because clearly, they make use of it. I think the first season was 6 years in the making. That's a lot of time to perfect it (which the absolutely did). If they ask for that long for the next series, I will absolutely wait and support the process. They have more than earned my trust and respect. Take my money, my time, my support, whatever you need. I want more of this level of content. The creators said something along the lines of, "What's the point of continuing the world if the show doesn't set up what's to come?" So that's what they did. So many provinces with such rich culture and history. I hope they fully flesh-out these areas. It also doesn't mean we're done with Piltover or Zaun. Now that the series is over, *WORLD/LORE SPOILERS AND SPECULATION* I want to say that many fans thought the Snowstorm Savior was a character named Ryze. His design and function, though hidden, were quite similar. And the Black Rose "witch" with whom we have contact, I assume, is another character named LeBlanc. Singed's daughter is a playable character named Orianna. Lore fans knew that, we've just been waiting for her to come into play. On the note of Piltover and Zaun, there are many, many characters yet to be included. We may yet see them in future series. There's even a group of playable character assassins whose entire lore (last I checked, maybe 4-6 years ago) centered around them being sent to infiltrate Zaun/Piltover.
I don't know if you read this, but... Jinx is alive! There are several indications: right before the explosion, there is a pink streak bursting away from the center of it. Caitlyn later realizes that Jinx is alive when she's looking at the ventilation shafts of that chamber, smiling as she does so. Then, in the ending, we see pictures of a blimp on its way to leave and thus 'break the circle'. Many speculate that we'll see her again in one of the other shows that Riot is working on. Perhaps one that portrays Jinx's friendship with Luxana (Lux), which is portrayed quite often in League of Legends.
It's speculated ( since it's not really explained well) that since Heimer says "I was able to accomplish alot here", that part of why that universe is so good is that since Ekko showed Heimer his little community, he worked harder on the council to help integrate the two communities. With no shimmer or hextech, and Silco and Vander reunited to help Zaun, and Heimer pushing the council, they could make things work there.
not a spoiler, just a fact about "Yordle"s- they're magical creatures, but unlike Vastaya (1/2 furry, hooman size), Yordles (Heimerdinger) when they "die" they just vanish then respawn (not sure how long) they respawn at "bandle city" (yordle town, not shown in Runeterra map, like a different dimension of somesort) so Heimerdinger is still alive. btw- horrible fact, Chem-Baron Smeech, is a cyborg Yordle
As a former league player and jinx main, this show was amazing. There are a bunch of clues that suggest jinx might be alive. Some might be just fans coping, some could be solid. Cait looking at vent diagrams while holding a monkey bomb head. Pink/purple streak jetting out of explosion. Last shot of s2 is a blimp, and in s1e1 powder mentioned she's gonna ride those one day. Also in netflix's arcane after glow for s2 act 3, the cast and creators were asked if jinx was still alive? Ella Purnell sheepishly said "we dont know, we’ll leave that open to interpretation", then she hid behind the question card smiling. Anyway love your guys channel, looking forward to more reactions!
With why everything is so nice in the alternate universe, I'd chalk it up to Vander's survival, combined with Violet's death in Jayce's workshop, helped push for reforms in Piltover and Zaun.
Also, let's not write off the "Heimerdinger redemption arc", he def managed to at least participate, if not initiate, those reforms in these years he's been there, he says to Echo himself "I was able to achieve much here".
Even though the journey of Arcane ends. I hope they'll follow these characters in different environments moving forward. Because imo, Jinx survived and chose to leave the source of her cycle of trauma. There's too much evidence, the streak of her shimmer flash just before Warwick(Vander) is blown up. During Caitlin's inspection of the Hexgates ventilation she smirks and in the midst of narration 'Our story is not over' the remnants of the monkey grenade is highlighted. In front of the fire she's conflicted when asking Vi if she's still in the fight, since she doesn't know whether or not it's best to inform her of what she knows. And there's influential scenes with Jinx where she listens even after stating they're too late. To Silco, while in the cell: 'I think the cycle only ends when one finds the will to walk away.' The known and unknown conversations between her and Ekko. 'No matter what happened in the past it's never too late to build something new.... Sometimes to make a leap forward you have to leave a few things behind.' Solidified with the final shot, being of a blimp Jinx imagined one day flying away on from the very beginning. 'One day I'm going to fly on one of those.'
It’s sad that it’s come full circle with how at the beginning Powder accidentally got Vander killed with the monkey bomb, but now as Jinx she’s putting WarWick and her out of their misery with the same bomb
1:04:52 jinx survived the fall and explosion. If you play it back at slow speed, there is a pink thing that zaps into a conduit right as the explosion starts, and why else would they have the airship at the end with the jinx style “the end?” As well, the producers have confirmed that Jinx did indeed survive, but she “died” so that her legend, her revolution, which was no longer needed, could die as well
Episode 7 is definitely my favorite episode of the season, its so beautiful 😍🥺😭 I'm so happy to know that at least in one universe Ekko and Powder (Jinx) are happy together 😍⏳💣💚💙
+ Heimerdinger, Jayce and Viktor tbf. Viktor was the one who gave Jayce the acceleration rune that made it possible for Heimerdinger and Ekko to make the time manipulation device and Jayce and Viktor destroyed the anomaly.
Powder is alive !!! No body, no death. The first sentence that Powder says in the show in the first episode is ( one day, I’m gonna ride in one of those things ) And the last scene of Arcane she rides one of those things and flies away across the sea, leaving the city. Also Silco say ( I think the cycle only ends when you find the will to walk away ) And also Ekko say ( Sometimes taking a leap forward means leaving a few things behind ) Jinx vs Powder fly away in the boat that she said that one day she would ride Jinx also knows that Vi will never give up on her people, on her sister, on Vander, on Caitlyn on her family and will never let the past or Vander hot Jixn go, she will never be able to let go and move on. Jinx realizes at that moment at the end and decides that it is better for her to walk away, so her sister can be happy with her girlfriend and she can move on.
you might want to add that the music score playing when Cait asks Vi if "she's still in the fight" is the same score that plays when Jinx has got Silco in the chair and he's explaining why he lied to her about Vi still being alive in season 1. basically the music is indicating that by not telling Vi, Caitlyn is doing the same as Silco did to Jinx.
@ that is ones of the beauty of the show that makes you think whatever you want because they left that possibility to everyone things was is better for them to believe or they want to believe 😉 And I respect your opinion
What are you yapping 😅 only cait and vi got a happy ending.. ekko lost Jinx two times, Jinx Lost everyone including her will to live, jayce and Viktor possibly died, Heimerdinger died, Mel Lost jayce and her mother, vander died two more times and was tormented.. want me to keep going? 🥲 Ekko and jinx deserved Happy ending more than cait and vi.
@@tomytouru408 There are like 5 things pointing to Jinx being alive. The pink streak, Cait looking at the hexgate filtration system while holding the bomb and smiling. The scene of the airship at the end that mirrors the airship Powder said she would ride in E01. And the scratchy "THE END" in Jinx writing. Jayce and Viktor are definitely in a different time line. They JUST reworked Viktor in league, it wouldnt make sense to kill him off. Heimerdinger is a yordle so he's just in their town now. They can't die. Vander COULD be dead, and Ambessa also could be dead, but it doesnt make sense that they'd kill a champion in league they JUST released.
I love how Silco misinterpreted Ekko's "didn't you try to kill him?" as a question towards Vander. Vander did try to kill him and it is Silco that forgave him thus his forgiveness response.
In my head, that last airship flying off into the distance is Jinx. She did say in the first episode, that one day she wanted to fly one of those things. And we didn't actually see her die.
Well they definitely existed just both are most likely dead or Jayce might have just been imprisoned hard to say but definitely he existed since someone had to make those first crystals
THANK YOU FORTICHE THANK YOU LEAGUE OF LEGEND THANK YOU NETFLIX THANK YOU ALL AMAZING WORKER ON THIS PROJECT I've played LOL since 2012 or 2013 when I was 12, playing for fun, didnt care about the history around the game and then Jinx came October 10 2013 with her music "get jinxed" and I was like "Oh they can do this in a Video game ?" and pouf 2019 and Arcane came to life Seing the champions i've been playing for 8 years on screen ???? Im grateful cause early 2010, gaming wasnt a good things to appreciate and it change !
In case anyone wants some hopium about the end, there is a cool theory which might or might not turn out to be true going around. Silco last hallucination to Jinx made her conclude that to break the cycle she had to walk away. (which is why she attempts suicide) In season 1 she says the others she will one day ride one of those airships The last shot of the show is of an airship like that one and it concludes in a very Jinx like distortion Caitlyn at the end was checking the conducts under the tower, indicating that maybe they didn't find Jinx body. Putting these facts together, the theory is that Jinx might have survived but chose to walk away without telling anyone, leaving the city through that airship.
45:58 just realized Maddie is the one who handed off the bomb that didn't go off. I thought it was cause they had some no-name engineer make it who wasn't as good with explosives as Jinx. But it was just another form of Maddie sabotaging the defense.
I'm not a league player so my info may be off but i did read that yordles (heimer's species) cant die and respawn in Bundle City, apparently time acts differently there so it saves the yordles from ever dying by teleporting them there or something. So when he dissapeared, he probably died/got seriously injured in the blast and teleported. So at least Heimer is happy in Bundle City 😅
Most people confuse multiversal travel and going to a different time line, basically, jayce was teleported to the future and ekko and heimey, got teleported to a time where Vi dies during the job and stuff
Fun fact that I noticed. If you stop at the right frame around the time Jinks shoots at the intro, you can see a little glimpse of what's going to happen in the episode. Such a little detail that show's how much they care. And btw nobody can change my mind that the actual ending is Jinks reunited with her family. After all the loss she deserves.
In "Warriors 2020" (the song from League of legends) there is a tiny bit of Cait and Vi yeaaaars later fighting ennemies together if you miss them a bit
“Where’d you learn those moves?” Yeah that’s the moment powder fell in love with that Ekko and she’s going to make the machine run again with the bag of blue fragments to get to him
Also the Black Rose witch is definitely not dead. It's impossible to explain how strong, ancient and impactful she is to people that don't have Runterra lore background, but yeah it's as short as I could get. Also I'd love you checking some lore maybe on streams, Runeterra has beautiful Universe page where you can learn it and an official Wiki.
To my understanding.. Sky is Viktors humanity.. because she is not connected to him like the others, she has no touch marks and fades instead of intertwining with Viktor like the other followers.. as the song implied for that episode, Viktor crossed the line by erasing his humanity a.k.a Sky.. as she said he won't miss their conversation..
I like to think that Vi's death softened Silco's opinion on Vander and allowed them to reconcile. Them working together (with help from Ekko, Powder, and Heimer) helped to create the alternate version of Zaun.
Funny, the first time I saw this, I thought that E6 was the heaviest episode. And it definitely broke me. But E7? After everything has had a chance to set in, this remains the emotional dynamite of the season. I can't watch this without losing it. So beautiful. I can't help but think that this is what our timeline desperately needs: more people to do the right thing not because it benefits them, but because it's the right thing for everyone else.
Maybe the ballerina box was from Powder, it has the gems in it possibly..? Like Powder from the other universe followed the instructions he left behind and followed him and is now in the main universe She might be trying to recover Jinx bc that’s where she died with Vander.. maybe creepy doctor could’ve brought her back again like he did for Silco before in Season 1
Everything got so nice, partially because of Heimerdinger, while it's never stated, since he was sent back further then Ekko, he was able to make changes as head of the council.
God what an awesome send off for the series. I can't wait (will have to anyway) for the new regions shows. Peak animation. Jinx's send off was amazing because they were able to hit all the emotions that her dying would cause while still purposefully hinting that she was able to use her shimmer to escape into the ducts (which is highly likely considering nothing they do or show in this media is coincidental). My personal hope is that some time down the timeline Jinx will reunite with Vi and Ekko, perhaps when she's finally forgiven herself for everything she's done. I could easily see it being a storyline or side quest in their MMO if it ever comes out. If not a scene in a future show. Also note on Heimer, we don't know exactly what lore they will make cannon but Yordles do have an avenue that he could still be alive as they basically "respawn" in their home world Bandle City. I think this would still work in canon as it doesn't cheapen Heimer's sacrifice if it's the first time he's died. Just an absolutely outstanding achievement.
When powder is dancing with ekko it's animated at 4fps, which is the amount of time ekko can time travel. Also powder dances like her mother in Vanders memory.
Yup, I noticed a couple of those moves.
The French song during that dance means "my best enemy." In French, friend and enemy, phonetically sound very similar. Ennemie vs Ami.
4fps are not 4s

actually something like this:
During the robbery, Vi died. Because of this, Jace was still exiled (or imprisoned), and Victor most likely simply died of illness. Silko did not get leverage over Vander and, apparently, found his letter -> made peace with him.
No one could invent Hextech. Chemtech, as an alternative, became a non-destructive power for the purpose of fighting Piltover, in order to improve the life of Zaun.
There are several factors here that were not explained, for example, where did Singed and "Shimmer" go from this universe
Silco probably canceled and the research into shimmer and told singed to stop who then prob left to find someone else to fund his research.
Lol just a guess tho like you said they didn't explain everything

And my logic breaks down because if Victor is the same magician from the 2nd episode of the 1st season, then this is ALWAYS the same Victor the Magician in all time lines and universes.
But when the Magician gives Victor the fragment, he has tattoos on his hand, on his fingers, while Victor, who touches Robo-Jace’s shoulder, has no tattoos on his arm. And in theory, his body should also be metal, since Victor became a magician just after close interaction with the Hex Core.
Jayce probably killed himself, like he almost done in the season one
Damn jayce picking his hammer from himself went hard
So. The reason Zaun looks nice in the other timeline is because Heimerdinger was sent back four years into the past. He says "I've done a lot in this world". Heimerdinger saved Zaun in those four years, cleaned it up, and freed it from oppression. All it took was a little Yordle with a goal to accomplish what Piltover couldn't.
Also probably helped push on the front where hextech should not be created, especially since it caused a death(Vi). I've also seen theories the blast also killed Caitlyn, she didn't drop a gadget that alerted Vi they were coming back to the apartment.
I don't think that's all of it, I think because Vi was killed in the heist made piltover think of zaun and consider it more
It’s not just that. Hextech was never invented in that world. Vander never died. Silco never flooded the lanes with shimmer.
Pretty much everything worked out perfectly for them.
@jayayj5574 Hextech wasn't invented because of the explosion caused by the Hexcores in episode one. It's reasonable to believe after Vi's death Heimerdinger was able to convince Piltover that hextech wasn't viable.
Hiemerdinger is also still a Counciler in this Universe since Jayce isn't there. So most likely he immediately used all his resources directed to the under city. Also this whole innovators competition they got going on is most likely 100% Hiemers idea.
Heimer's species are Spirits from other dimension, when their physical form dies they just sorta respawn in their home dimension. There is a character whos lore about being depressed because of that.
You talking about Amumu? I thought he was cursed with eternal sadness and that's why he's always depressed
@WeaselSpanzor no it's about Vex 😭
Amumu isn't Yordle as far as we know
@@Aaniel_al.Meara. Ahh gotchya, I stopped playing long before Vex came out so not familiar with her lore, so the first thing I jumped to when I saw you mention depression was Amumu haha
@@WeaselSpanzor got it
Yeah he is a Yurgle, they don't die.
I like to imagine Silco would be so proud of jinx for pulling that stunt in the finale. She was the one to unite Zaun and as a result achieve peace.
Love the line "desperation is doorway to oblivion" from Ambessa, which was all the time desperate to solve her black rose problem and also that she was in the end beaten due to Caitlyn's sacrifice which was her last lesson to her.
Maddie worked for Ambessa from the start. She was the first enforcer to bang her chest when Ambessa picked Cait out to be the defacto leader of Piltover. When Ambessa was alone with Vi, she said she was thankful since Vi's absence left a void for Ambessa to exploit. Maddie was always a baddie.
Maddie was also one of the guards who overlooked Renni (the chainsaw attacker) arriving at the memorial in Ep.1, and Maddie handed over the bomb which had a nail jammed into the workings so that it wouldn't explode... that wasn't just a coincidence.
She's a warmason, so yep.
Leblanc (the black rose mage) giving mel props with the "sly girl" comment is probably one of my favorite moments in this episode. Mel being just ruthless and pretty damn smart too. Using her mom as bait to kill two birds with one stone, even her own mom was proud of that.
No way she kill leblanc haha she's not even here
@@Lotyc_ Well yeah no way leblanc is dead. More so her hold or even connection to mel from what it seemed.
She didn't want to kill her mom tho
@@runawaycloak1752 Yeah pretty sure Ambessa dying was Leblanc's parting shot at Mel
Completly quiet, then " They got sucked off " had me rolling on the floor
Singed: No matter how much bad things you do. You can always get a happy ending
is he really ? like, her daughter's dead even thought Orianna's here
@@XxPanderosxX Her body is dead. Maybe he did like he did with Vander and transferred her soul to the robot. Although it didn't stay very good, due to an audio of the game
@@alejandro_a.a no I think you missed the point Panderos tried to make. unless they change it again, Orianna's father in the OG lore restored her body, but she came back as a completely emotionless, logic-focused construct who had no love for him. if it remains that way, Singed's daughter is gone and Orianna's been created with her body.
@@mformotivation9152 She's most likely going to get a lore rework, everyone's allowed at most 1 more retcon to fit into a cohesive story with Arcane being canon
this show is absolutely amazing, im so happy i was born in a time where it came out
Hell yeah
actually spitting facts
I come from a different Timeline. Arcane is dangerous we must destroy it !!!
@@Bratelo777Jayce get out of here
Exactly...I know people use that line a lot...but Arcane has gotten me through some shit. I'm so thankful for it's existence.
1:05:47 that crow is the ancient demon Raum, the demon of secrets, in League Of Legends story, later the great noxian general Swain does a pact or a deal with that demon, so I believe that Raum shows everything to Swain once the events make Swain to do the pact, so Swain saw everything since the very beginning
don’t worry. jinx is not dead. remember in the first episode of season one, powder said that one day she was gonna ride on an airship that looked exactly like the one in the final shot of the show.
Nice catch, didn't even think of that yet. I knew she was not dead from the blueprints of the vents shown at the end, but hadn't thought of this yet. The creators really drop more clues than you realize.
Stop gaslighting yourselves people… i dont care about the “evidence”… let her fcking rest in peace.
After Warwick (Vander) grapping her on her waist so she can't run away, I mean, that's enough proof to believe that Jinx is dead
@@xXJTTutorialesXx Ah yes, Jinx has never eluded Warwick before.
With suicidal thoughts wow, yeah she's alive, surely she is alive and didn't die with his "dad"
8:55 "But how did everything get so nice"
My guess is that Vi's death caused it. Silco and Vander were at that point not on good terms, the death of Vi probably shocked them so much that they forgave eachother to make Zaun a better place.
Remember in episode 5 of season 2, where Vi's mom, Silco and Vander are talking about making Zaun a better place, and how their plans looked amazing. They made a promise to her to fix Zaun BECAUSE Vi was being born.
Vi'd death caused them to remember that promise and fix it despite their differences.
Through blisters and bedrock
It also could have been because Hextech was never invented. Jayce killed a kid and got expelled. Viktor probably never came to stop Jayce from jumping so Jayce more than likely is dead in this universe. Silco and Vander came together after the death of Vi. But also Silco probably found the letter of Vander's apology too.
And what makes you think Silco cares about Vi? He even wanted her dead in season one.
Ya don't think vis death made silco want to forgive Vander. I think what happened was the enforcer's never went looking for kids as they already had the body of the one responsible and so silco didn't speed up his plans as Vander was not in trouble. Him not speeding up his plans gave him more free time and more then likely found the later from Vander in that time and that's what made him forgive.
First season silco was trying to kill vi powder and Vander he did not rlly care about them. Yes he obviously cared for their mother but that obviously did not go to them.
That pink streak at the beginning of the explosion that went into the vent was jinx
As for Hiemerdinger he is a yordle and by lore yordles kinda just respawn lol in bandle city
The thing about that is he wasn't in his own time lines so who knows how that interferes with that.
We also don't know what exactly happened to him as we where dealing with time travel shenanigans.
I do expect to see more of heimerdingers in future projects tho idt he's dead
The purple line could also just be the light we saw every time she tried to blow herself up with that same bomb.
@@Raoul9753 This pink streak leaves before the blue and pink bomb blew up and we have seen jinx use that shimmer dash before also this pink streak was super straight to the vent and all the other streaks were after it explodes and were zig zags
@@Itsss.chasegYeah also her shimmer streak is a different shade of pink from anything in the explosion. It's extremely noticeable in frame-by-frame, but blink and you'll miss it.
Jinx lived she escaped in the air vents that is what Cait was looking at in the end of the episode and she holding a piece of the bomb and that was her on the blimp at the end. She walked away like Silco told her too in ep 8 , also if you go to the arcane wiki it says she is alive but presumed dead so she survived and left piltover/zaun..
Yep, you can also see her shimmer trail escaping just before the explosion. It's very subtle but once you see it, you can never unsee it.
People stop gaslighting yourselves for the love of god… it doesnt matter what “evidence” they show to you… let her be fcking dead…
She also told to the group at the very beginning of the show dat she would fly into the big "plane" and it end with this plane going we dont know where !
@@XxPanderosxX And you can see her purple trail bolt thing getting out just before the bomb explodes
@@XxPanderosxX that doesnt mean anything whatsoever... they closed off the story of Jinx. There is literally no reason for her to be alive anymore. You are just taking an industrial amount of copium here
I liked the parallel between every time that a person is brought to Ekko's tree they are blindfolded. And then for alternate-universe Powder it's a cute "no looking" walk to reveal a mural of Vi, where once stood the mural of people mostly Jinx killed.
According to the creators,Yordles don’t die - because of their connection to some deep magic of Runeterra, that’s what essentially makes them immortal- something tells me whatever magical connection he has, it took him away before Ekko’s procedure completed. I get the feeling that, like Jinx; we will see Hiemadinger again someday. Absolutely excellent show, BTW. ❤. Also, if you guys love this show; you should checkout all the cinematics & music videos Riot put out for League of Legends. You’ll see some familiar faces in a lot of their shorts & a lot of cool NEW characters.
that jayce and viktor moment is absolutely spectacular
Jayce talking to viktor may have actually changed how i look at the world
It's not that Vi screwed up the world. It's her Death made it so the council could not over look Jayce's work. After all a small lab explosion in the main time line is one thing, and explosion that kills a kid in the good time line is completely different. Also because Vi dies and the kids are "caught" there is no obsessive manhunt led by Jayce which ends up getting all the good people in undercity killed leaving behind only the darker impulses. So it's more like Vi sacrifices her life to stop Jayce from screwing over everyone else.
Also.
Remember Vi saying to Jayce that kids always died. "You just never had to look it in the eye".
The explosion where Vi died made *everyone* of Piltover look it in the eye.
And thus felt guilty and horrified and thus be more persuaded to get peace
how did everythign get so nice?
Heimerdinger had 3+ years. He learned a lot about the under-city and is still the leader of piltover.
Yes, but i believe Vi’s death was the main catalyst for everything in that world to be fixed, the time difference between Vi dying and when Ekko was there is about 10 years.
I think they brokered a peace between Piltover and Zaun after she (an Undercity child) died and Jayce (a Piltover counselor’s patron) most likely getting arrested for her death. Especially since they were willing to do so on much worse terms at the end of season one. Plus Silco and Vander forgave each other, Silco probably found that letter he wrote him, so they were running the underground together again.
They had roughly 10 years for everything to get nice with everyone actually working together, instead of against each other
Episode 7 makes me both sad and hopeful. All it took Heimerdinger was 3 years to improve the state of the city SO MUCH, which means if the council had ever even bothered to try, they could have done the same in the main timeline just as quickly! But... maybe it also means they still can, post-finale? I have faith
I don't think it's all because of Heimerdinger. It's more because Hextech wasn't invented in this universe.
It mainly Vi’s death that happened 10ish years prior that most likely allowed them to make peace and establish Zaun’s independence. I think a child from the Undercity being killed in the overcity by the hextech crystals definitely got them to seek a treaty and they definitely arrested Jayce without a trial since a kid died. They would’ve never found out about the crystals and made hextech, and Vander and Silco made up causing them to be able to run Zaun together
The Blackrose leader is not dead, can't be because she's immortal and a key character to the story, she will also likely play a huge roll in one of the future shows
Likely the next show will revolve around Noxus and Mel's fight against the Blackrose, they already teased an important Noxian figure in Arcane multiple times through the black six eyed crows, those a tied to the character called Swain, one of the three leaders of Noxus, Mel and her family belonged to the Noxian aristocracy but aren't in any way important to the nation, so her story is far from over and she isn't the leader of the nation, Ambessa was just a random warlord from Noxus trying to get weapons and vengeance
Almost basically a guarantee the next show is Noxus, and its 2025. Mel is coming out, new Noxian champion rework, noxus themed League season. And they said theyve already been working on a show for a year.
@lockekappa500 Noxus is my fav region on runeterra so im really excited, can wait thil we see Swain, Darius, Leblanc and Vladimir, and all the other Noxus champs
Considering the current timeline of events, we will likely get dropped in the middle of the Noxus-Ionia conflict where our boy Singed will once again play a huge roll
@@_Chaosnight_ Yup, get some Blitzcrank, see Orianna in action. I'm excited!
@@lockekappa500 if its a visual rework, it needs to vladimir
Are we even sure that is LeBlanc talking to Mel? Could just aswell be just another member of the Black Rose, which now ended up dead.
Time to cry again.
Episode 7 hits deep to me on spiritual level so so badly.
This show is solid gold. Top 2 animation for sure.
ATLA has biased forever rank 1 for me but god damn this show was good.
Also to Bridget, i would recommend try TFT (Team fight tactics).
Way more new player friendly and less toxic community.
As someone french, the song from Pomme and Stromae was so painful to hear, basically it's a "I love you but you keep hurting me" kinda song, seeing Ekko so at peace is so melancholic
Mel played the long game. She used her mom as bait to lure out Black Rose so she could avenger her brother. That's why her mom said, "You are the wolf." at the end. But at the same time Mel wanted her mom to just leave with her so they could work together but her mom was too obsessed with quest for personal power.
I literally loved watching you guys react to the arcane series not only do I get to re watch arcane but I’m entertained doing so.
The ARCANE is waking UP
Fun fact (now that you're finished): All of the music is made for the show, so you can play it on streams and don't have to worry about copyright lol
48:27 Best reaction 😂❤
53:48 it’s giving “neither can live while the other survives”
And so the masterpiece comes to an end. It has been an honor and a privilege to have gone on this journey with you guys! Thank you so much
I've been waiting DAYS to talk about this. This ending is so bittersweet, but I'm satisfied. This show took the phrase "every frame, a painting" as a bible. I love the structure of 3 episodes, 3 acts. They stuck with the classic play structure, and it hits hard.
After this, I hope they get all the funding and time they ask for, because clearly, they make use of it. I think the first season was 6 years in the making. That's a lot of time to perfect it (which the absolutely did). If they ask for that long for the next series, I will absolutely wait and support the process. They have more than earned my trust and respect. Take my money, my time, my support, whatever you need. I want more of this level of content.
The creators said something along the lines of, "What's the point of continuing the world if the show doesn't set up what's to come?" So that's what they did. So many provinces with such rich culture and history. I hope they fully flesh-out these areas. It also doesn't mean we're done with Piltover or Zaun.
Now that the series is over, *WORLD/LORE SPOILERS AND SPECULATION* I want to say that many fans thought the Snowstorm Savior was a character named Ryze. His design and function, though hidden, were quite similar. And the Black Rose "witch" with whom we have contact, I assume, is another character named LeBlanc. Singed's daughter is a playable character named Orianna. Lore fans knew that, we've just been waiting for her to come into play. On the note of Piltover and Zaun, there are many, many characters yet to be included. We may yet see them in future series. There's even a group of playable character assassins whose entire lore (last I checked, maybe 4-6 years ago) centered around them being sent to infiltrate Zaun/Piltover.
I don't know if you read this, but... Jinx is alive!
There are several indications: right before the explosion, there is a pink streak bursting away from the center of it. Caitlyn later realizes that Jinx is alive when she's looking at the ventilation shafts of that chamber, smiling as she does so.
Then, in the ending, we see pictures of a blimp on its way to leave and thus 'break the circle'.
Many speculate that we'll see her again in one of the other shows that Riot is working on. Perhaps one that portrays Jinx's friendship with Luxana (Lux), which is portrayed quite often in League of Legends.
It's speculated ( since it's not really explained well) that since Heimer says "I was able to accomplish alot here", that part of why that universe is so good is that since Ekko showed Heimer his little community, he worked harder on the council to help integrate the two communities. With no shimmer or hextech, and Silco and Vander reunited to help Zaun, and Heimer pushing the council, they could make things work there.
not a spoiler, just a fact about "Yordle"s-
they're magical creatures, but unlike Vastaya (1/2 furry, hooman size),
Yordles (Heimerdinger) when they "die" they just vanish then respawn (not sure how long)
they respawn at "bandle city" (yordle town, not shown in Runeterra map, like a different dimension of somesort)
so Heimerdinger is still alive.
btw- horrible fact, Chem-Baron Smeech, is a cyborg Yordle
As a former league player and jinx main, this show was amazing. There are a bunch of clues that suggest jinx might be alive. Some might be just fans coping, some could be solid. Cait looking at vent diagrams while holding a monkey bomb head. Pink/purple streak jetting out of explosion. Last shot of s2 is a blimp, and in s1e1 powder mentioned she's gonna ride those one day. Also in netflix's arcane after glow for s2 act 3, the cast and creators were asked if jinx was still alive? Ella Purnell sheepishly said "we dont know, we’ll leave that open to interpretation", then she hid behind the question card smiling. Anyway love your guys channel, looking forward to more reactions!
With why everything is so nice in the alternate universe, I'd chalk it up to Vander's survival, combined with Violet's death in Jayce's workshop, helped push for reforms in Piltover and Zaun.
Also, let's not write off the "Heimerdinger redemption arc", he def managed to at least participate, if not initiate, those reforms in these years he's been there, he says to Echo himself "I was able to achieve much here".
Even though the journey of Arcane ends. I hope they'll follow these characters in different environments moving forward. Because imo, Jinx survived and chose to leave the source of her cycle of trauma. There's too much evidence, the streak of her shimmer flash just before Warwick(Vander) is blown up. During Caitlin's inspection of the Hexgates ventilation she smirks and in the midst of narration 'Our story is not over' the remnants of the monkey grenade is highlighted. In front of the fire she's conflicted when asking Vi if she's still in the fight, since she doesn't know whether or not it's best to inform her of what she knows. And there's influential scenes with Jinx where she listens even after stating they're too late. To Silco, while in the cell: 'I think the cycle only ends when one finds the will to walk away.' The known and unknown conversations between her and Ekko. 'No matter what happened in the past it's never too late to build something new.... Sometimes to make a leap forward you have to leave a few things behind.' Solidified with the final shot, being of a blimp Jinx imagined one day flying away on from the very beginning. 'One day I'm going to fly on one of those.'
It’s sad that it’s come full circle with how at the beginning Powder accidentally got Vander killed with the monkey bomb, but now as Jinx she’s putting WarWick and her out of their misery with the same bomb
Would that even kill him? Nothing in that battle had even scratched him up to that point.
Mel isn't at all stronger than Leblanc, that was just a manifestation of Leblanc .
Also she took what she needed ,the memories of ambessa .
52:51
Him: They should make this into a video game
League Of Legends:
1:04:52 jinx survived the fall and explosion. If you play it back at slow speed, there is a pink thing that zaps into a conduit right as the explosion starts, and why else would they have the airship at the end with the jinx style “the end?” As well, the producers have confirmed that Jinx did indeed survive, but she “died” so that her legend, her revolution, which was no longer needed, could die as well
Episode 7 was not what I was expecting but it was so freaking good. One of my favorite episodes of Arcane, even though it's very bittersweet.
They announced there are 3 spinoffs in the works. They are supposed to be covering other lands in the world.
Episode 7 is definitely my favorite episode of the season, its so beautiful 😍🥺😭 I'm so happy to know that at least in one universe Ekko and Powder (Jinx) are happy together 😍⏳💣💚💙
THE BOY SAVIOR FOR A REASON 🎉🎉
+ Heimerdinger, Jayce and Viktor tbf. Viktor was the one who gave Jayce the acceleration rune that made it possible for Heimerdinger and Ekko to make the time manipulation device and Jayce and Viktor destroyed the anomaly.
Powder is alive !!!
No body, no death.
The first sentence that Powder says in the show in the first episode is ( one day, I’m gonna ride in one of those things )
And the last scene of Arcane
she rides one of those things and flies away across the sea, leaving the city.
Also Silco say ( I think the cycle only ends when you find the will to walk away )
And also Ekko say ( Sometimes taking a leap forward means leaving a few things behind )
Jinx vs Powder fly away in the boat that she said that one day she would ride
Jinx also knows that Vi will never give up on her people, on her sister, on Vander, on Caitlyn on her family and will never let the past or Vander hot Jixn go, she will never be able to let go and move on.
Jinx realizes at that moment at the end and decides that it is better for her to walk away, so her sister can be happy with her girlfriend and she can move on.
you might want to add that the music score playing when Cait asks Vi if "she's still in the fight" is the same score that plays when Jinx has got Silco in the chair and he's explaining why he lied to her about Vi still being alive in season 1. basically the music is indicating that by not telling Vi, Caitlyn is doing the same as Silco did to Jinx.
So Isha, Haimedinger, Jayce and Victor are alive too?
@ Isha no, sorry 😔😢😭
@@davidpascuallopez8103 Sorry but i think all of them are dead including Powder in this dimension.
@ that is ones of the beauty of the show that makes you think whatever you want because they left that possibility to everyone things was is better for them to believe or they want to believe 😉
And I respect your opinion
Arcane season 2 is awesome. I'm really glad everyone got a happy ending. Especially Caitlyn and Vi
Vander didn't get a happy ending
What are you yapping 😅 only cait and vi got a happy ending.. ekko lost Jinx two times, Jinx Lost everyone including her will to live, jayce and Viktor possibly died, Heimerdinger died, Mel Lost jayce and her mother, vander died two more times and was tormented.. want me to keep going? 🥲 Ekko and jinx deserved Happy ending more than cait and vi.
@@tomytouru408 The ironic part is literally none of the above people died.
@@lockekappa500 and you know this how?
@@tomytouru408 There are like 5 things pointing to Jinx being alive. The pink streak, Cait looking at the hexgate filtration system while holding the bomb and smiling. The scene of the airship at the end that mirrors the airship Powder said she would ride in E01. And the scratchy "THE END" in Jinx writing.
Jayce and Viktor are definitely in a different time line. They JUST reworked Viktor in league, it wouldnt make sense to kill him off. Heimerdinger is a yordle so he's just in their town now. They can't die. Vander COULD be dead, and Ambessa also could be dead, but it doesnt make sense that they'd kill a champion in league they JUST released.
The Line is such a beautiful, flawless song because a beautiful, flawless Tyler Joseph wrote it and sang it🔥🔥
Jayce vivió un infierno, pero Ekko tuvo que renunciar a paraíso
They couldn't shut the hexgates days before because people were still fleeing. The hexgates can teleport airships far away to safety.
Singed got everything he wanted, love that for him ❤😂
I love how Silco misinterpreted Ekko's "didn't you try to kill him?" as a question towards Vander. Vander did try to kill him and it is Silco that forgave him thus his forgiveness response.
In my head, that last airship flying off into the distance is Jinx. She did say in the first episode, that one day she wanted to fly one of those things. And we didn't actually see her die.
i love how yall sometimes figure things out (or get close to it) then talk yourselfs outa it, its kinda funni tbh
Bridgette calling Cody immature is everything
"One of these days, I'm gonna ride in one of those things." THE END?
"a reality check from Jayce" that's what I call it!! 🤣 I love the dance sequence, its so beautiful 😻
“What were the indicators??”
😭😂🙏🏼 I just couldn’t 😂 and the fur?!😭
"wanna clap but am also sad" summed this up perfectly
18:54 This whole thing reminded me of the alien abduction SNL skit 😂😂 if you haven’t seen that, HIGHLY recommend.
I find comfort in that alternate reality... where everyone was alright except for Heimerdinger & Violet. Sad for Victor & Jayce not existing.
Well they definitely existed just both are most likely dead or Jayce might have just been imprisoned hard to say but definitely he existed since someone had to make those first crystals
@jamaalgaylord5029 oh yes... the shards slipped my mind.
I loved watching you reacting this show this is my fav and I'll keep watching what you do
THANK YOU FORTICHE THANK YOU LEAGUE OF LEGEND THANK YOU NETFLIX THANK YOU ALL AMAZING WORKER ON THIS PROJECT I've played LOL since 2012 or 2013 when I was 12, playing for fun, didnt care about the history around the game and then Jinx came October 10 2013 with her music "get jinxed" and I was like "Oh they can do this in a Video game ?" and pouf 2019 and Arcane came to life Seing the champions i've been playing for 8 years on screen ???? Im grateful cause early 2010, gaming wasnt a good things to appreciate and it change !
In case anyone wants some hopium about the end, there is a cool theory which might or might not turn out to be true going around.
Silco last hallucination to Jinx made her conclude that to break the cycle she had to walk away. (which is why she attempts suicide)
In season 1 she says the others she will one day ride one of those airships
The last shot of the show is of an airship like that one and it concludes in a very Jinx like distortion
Caitlyn at the end was checking the conducts under the tower, indicating that maybe they didn't find Jinx body.
Putting these facts together, the theory is that Jinx might have survived but chose to walk away without telling anyone, leaving the city through that airship.
45:58 just realized Maddie is the one who handed off the bomb that didn't go off. I thought it was cause they had some no-name engineer make it who wasn't as good with explosives as Jinx. But it was just another form of Maddie sabotaging the defense.
I'm not a league player so my info may be off but i did read that yordles (heimer's species) cant die and respawn in Bundle City, apparently time acts differently there so it saves the yordles from ever dying by teleporting them there or something. So when he dissapeared, he probably died/got seriously injured in the blast and teleported. So at least Heimer is happy in Bundle City 😅
Most people confuse multiversal travel and going to a different time line, basically, jayce was teleported to the future and ekko and heimey, got teleported to a time where Vi dies during the job and stuff
Fun fact that I noticed. If you stop at the right frame around the time Jinks shoots at the intro, you can see a little glimpse of what's going to happen in the episode. Such a little detail that show's how much they care.
And btw nobody can change my mind that the actual ending is Jinks reunited with her family. After all the loss she deserves.
In "Warriors 2020" (the song from League of legends) there is a tiny bit of Cait and Vi yeaaaars later fighting ennemies together if you miss them a bit
“Where’d you learn those moves?” Yeah that’s the moment powder fell in love with that Ekko and she’s going to make the machine run again with the bag of blue fragments to get to him
"They should make this into a video game...." LMFAO
YES!! i was waiting for your reactions guys haha :D
Your laugh when maddie got shot reminded me of santa with the rocking im laughing so hard you dont understand
Not that it means anything, but I started watching this show because I saw you guys watching it. Thank you for that, because I loved this show.
I've been waiting for their reaction specifically
Also the Black Rose witch is definitely not dead. It's impossible to explain how strong, ancient and impactful she is to people that don't have Runterra lore background, but yeah it's as short as I could get.
Also I'd love you checking some lore maybe on streams, Runeterra has beautiful Universe page where you can learn it and an official Wiki.
they are gonna do a whole cinematic universe. they said they are gonna do shows about the other regions like noxus and demacia.
To my understanding.. Sky is Viktors humanity.. because she is not connected to him like the others, she has no touch marks and fades instead of intertwining with Viktor like the other followers.. as the song implied for that episode, Viktor crossed the line by erasing his humanity a.k.a Sky.. as she said he won't miss their conversation..
I like to think that Vi's death softened Silco's opinion on Vander and allowed them to reconcile. Them working together (with help from Ekko, Powder, and Heimer) helped to create the alternate version of Zaun.
Funny, the first time I saw this, I thought that E6 was the heaviest episode. And it definitely broke me. But E7? After everything has had a chance to set in, this remains the emotional dynamite of the season. I can't watch this without losing it. So beautiful.
I can't help but think that this is what our timeline desperately needs: more people to do the right thing not because it benefits them, but because it's the right thing for everyone else.
If it's one think my girl Jinx / Powder is going to do, she's going to make a damn entrance 😂
Heimerdinger exploding is forever etched into my brain… why did they do my guy like that
- I would like to get this tattoo
- But ma'am, this is a scene of Powder and Ekko being happy together
- Yes, and make it colored please
Maybe the ballerina box was from Powder, it has the gems in it possibly..?
Like Powder from the other universe followed the instructions he left behind and followed him and is now in the main universe
She might be trying to recover Jinx bc that’s where she died with Vander.. maybe creepy doctor could’ve brought her back again like he did for Silco before in Season 1
Everything got so nice, partially because of Heimerdinger, while it's never stated, since he was sent back further then Ekko, he was able to make changes as head of the council.
What an incredible series
Sleep because it's almost midnight here ❌️
Watch Arcane final act reaction ✅️
God what an awesome send off for the series. I can't wait (will have to anyway) for the new regions shows. Peak animation. Jinx's send off was amazing because they were able to hit all the emotions that her dying would cause while still purposefully hinting that she was able to use her shimmer to escape into the ducts (which is highly likely considering nothing they do or show in this media is coincidental).
My personal hope is that some time down the timeline Jinx will reunite with Vi and Ekko, perhaps when she's finally forgiven herself for everything she's done. I could easily see it being a storyline or side quest in their MMO if it ever comes out. If not a scene in a future show. Also note on Heimer, we don't know exactly what lore they will make cannon but Yordles do have an avenue that he could still be alive as they basically "respawn" in their home world Bandle City. I think this would still work in canon as it doesn't cheapen Heimer's sacrifice if it's the first time he's died.
Just an absolutely outstanding achievement.
1:00:30 the sky turn into Powder Blue and it gives ekko the drive he needs to save the day the details u catch after watchin a few times
