As an avid league lore (and Arcane) fan, this cinematic exceeded all my expectation. - It is set shortly after Arcane. Mel arrives on the shores of Rokrund, the ancestral seat of her family (this is the same spot as in the Ambessa Blood Sweat and Tears video). She then arrives to a massive arch called a Noxtora. Noxus builds these kind of doors everywhere they conquer, and they always face the Immortal Bastion, the Capital. - Meanwhile, in a secret ball organised by the Black Rose, a red-haired assassin, Katarina, has been sent to eliminate a Target. Lady Elise, mistress of house Kythera and high ranking member of the Rose, organised the event and apparently laid a trap expecting Katarina to show up. - On the northern border of Noxus, yet another expansion is being lead by Darius, one of Noxus' best soldiers. He fights Trundle, the king of the trolls, who wields a club of true ice. This ice is fatal to anyone who isn't an "iceborn", yet Darius managed to survive holding his frozen axe for long enough to win. This is the kind of mad strength that's expected in Noxus. All of these events are being watched by a mysterious yellow-eyed figure and her shadow carvings : A wolf with the Medarda crest on its head, a spider trapping an assassin, and the axe of a warrior in the North. While crossing the door, Mel is faced with an illusion of the Immortal Bastion. First, undead soldiers attack her, part of the grey legion, created by the Black Rose. Then, hemomancers (blood sorcerers) from the Crimson Cult, and finally an avalanche of rocks and armor. I believe this is an illusion sent by the Black Rose to threaten and intimidate Mel by showing her what she can expect in Noxus. Mel is visibly shaken by it, but she steels her resolve, and presses on. Finally the shadowy figure from Arcane is revealed to us. LeBlanc, the pale sorceress, leader of the Black rose, of unknown origin and name. We can recognize her yellow eyes and markings. Moreover, we can see that the tip of her fingers are blackened, while in Arcane, the only "real" thing about the shadowy figure was her fingers. Basically, this confirms that she was puppeteering a clone from afar, from the tips of her fingers. Vladimir is the co-founder of the rose, and is *not* a vampire, but the first human hemomancer. They both created the Rose a good thousand years prior to that, but they're both even older. Vladimir around 1500 years old, and LeBlanc possibly even older, but we don't know. At the very end, LeBlanc wants to do something "bolder", which Vladimir claims is "too much" even for them, and the truth is, we don't know yet what it is ! The community is very curious and divided as to what the last symbol was. It could be the symbol of a demon, but also perhaps of a Darkin, corrupted Demi-Gods sealed into weapons... Either way, this teases something big for the lore !
i still convinced that arcane is before the trifecta so the next bold move may be the invasion of yonia, other that the ascension of Swain and desertion of Riven we really have nearly no ideia of who this war unfolds internally for Noxus.
Simple correction Darius is the Hand of Noxus and the 3 ruler of noxus not just some simple good soldier. I think the fight happened in the past when he was younger
@@muhaiminhussain5843 Well yeah you are technically correct, but as this is a younger Darius, he is not yet the Hand of Noxus (I think he becomes it after the Ionia invasion).
@@muhaiminhussain5843 Yeah that's why I didn't say he was one of the leaders, cause at this point in the timeline he isn't, and I didn't want to spoil that in case the next "Arcane" season has him becoming one of the leaders of Noxus.
@@yellow_flash813 If you refer to the video, he did not fail, you can see that he managed to assassinate the target during his fight with Elise. If you refer to Lore, he only failed in his first assassination attempt, and completed it later.
The redhead is Katerina, a Noxian assassin, and she is fighting Elise, Noxian spider queen. The warrior is Darius, a Noxian general, and he is fighting Trundel, the Troll King. Noxus is invading Freljord and this fight has to do with the terroritory dispute between Noxus and the trolls of Freljord. The couple at the end is LeBlanc and Valdimir, the leaders of the Black Rose.
Katarina has red hair, not pink like Vi. She's one of the oldest champions and was created long before most of the Arcane cast. This design is so much better than her game design though but whenever Fortiche gets to cook that's what happens lol
Vi and Jinx are kinda just nobodies in the grand scheme of Runeterra, like literally insignificants whose clashing fates were just a match to a fire, causing a blow up to lead to bigger things happening beyond them. A crazy Florida-girl with a gun and a punk-turned-cop which is not me knocking them just stating facts, Arcane focused on Piltover and Zaun for just that reason, it's a grounded entrypoint asides ofc from the new redesign of Viktor as he basically became a bio-mechanical demi-god by the end. Moving into Noxus the stakes get much bigger than even that and everything that happened in Piltover will be a catalyst for much larger events on the horizon. The Black Rose is an incredibly cruel and dangerous cabal, but the keep even more dangerous things at bay. In the first frame Mel is landing on the very shore that her mother faced Death itself and saw a vision of herself on the Noxian throne, pregnant with Mel at the time she's lived her whole life in service of achieving that goal, but it's a very Skywalker-esque prophecy that the Kindred (LoL's Grim Reaper and where Ambessa's whole Wolf philosophy springs) showed her. Mel is intended to be the one and people theorize her becoming the Faceless, a long teased third ruler of Noxus after the Emperor was deposed by Swain (The demonically-bonded ruler of Noxus, his six-eyed ravens were seen through Arcane were watching Mel). Darius the axe-wielding commander fighting the ice-troll Trundle is the second leader of Noxus, though that scene was from his youth before he became the representative of Might. Ambessa broke down Noxian Principles of Strength in her sparring match with Caitlyn: Vision, Might and Guile Swain, Darius and very likely... Mel. Arcane takes place a little in the past based on Singed's situation. The red-hair assassin Katarina is fighting with blades she just VERY recently got from another story meaning THAT is the present storyline and in fact her father was long thought to be the Faceless before he was corrupted and pretty unceremoniously killed in said story by the Black Rose. This means that it essentially has to be Mel at this point. Especially with the foreshadowing of her mother's vision.
ok to let you know currently there are 169 champions in league. piltover and zaun really is the smallest place in runeterra so just let you know you will see alot of champions you have never seen before. there are 6 champions in this cinematic (not counting mel who we assume will be in the future).
Except the guy who got killed by the "cait child" every character is a lol champion so yea fan do recognize them. It's really cool because it basically confirm that the next "arcane" show will be about noxus and which character it's gonna follow. If you know the lore though it's not a big surprise since there is a great event in runeterra history that they have to adapt.
In arcane s2 finale, we saw Mel on a ship on her way to Noxus now that's she's the unspoken leader/heir/defacto commander of her mother's army and holdings, this video starts when Mel presumibly just landed on a Noxus shore (so let's say about a month of travel time? from Piltover to whatever part of Noxus that is) so yeah this can be seen as the continuation of arcane s2 into whatever the next show ends up being called, since they don't want to call it "arcane s3" for whatever reason.
Characters in order of appearance: Mel Medarda: She is returning back to noxus Darius: One of the three leaders of noxus, he's fighting the huge troll Trundle: He's the troll, one of the wisest Katarina: Redhaired hired assassin, we speculate she was hired by swain(one of the three leaders of noxus) Elise: Spider human LeBlanc: The mage lady at the end, she was the one threatening ambessa in arcane S2 She's one of the founders of the Black Rose / Black Rose Cabal Vladimir: The mage guy at the end, also one of the founders of the black rose. He has blood magic like choso from jjk
While Darius is one of the leaders of Noxus in current lore, I believe this cinematic is set before Jericho Swain's rise to power - therefore Darius should only be a commander in the timeline of this cinematic as the Trifarix haven't been established yet.
Season 3 will happen. But its not going to be called Arcane. Arcane is just the one type of Magic used in the world of Ruintera. Ruintera is the world the show is based on. So, the title of the next show can be anything at this point. But all of it is connected, as you just saw in this teaser. The Characters you saw in this teaser were from the Black Rose. Red hair, Katarina, Spider Elise, the Leader Leblanc and next to her Vladimir.
Trundle casually inting Young darius his broken axe is actually in the top side of the map in the game Katarina vs elise Leblanc and vlad having a chitchat
Caitlyn is mostly Asian, Katarina is fully white. Vi has pink hair, Katarina has red hair. Neither of them have a resemblance to Katarina. Vladimir also existed for years before that copy cat lmao.
Yah most likely we're probably gonna focus on a new set of characters whenever the new show drops. Noxus is going to play a big part. But i also have a hunch that Demacia will also come into play. We might get to see Luxanna, aka Lux, one of my personal favorite best girls 😊
Just my guess but maybe the "main" plotline will be about Noxus invading Ionia but we will see demacia as a sort of side plot. It seems like a natural progression from arcane to see the antimagic kingdom of Demacia. Plus Lux and Sylas's story is too good to pass up ⛓
they did say after arcane season 2 finished the next areas they are working on are noxus, ionia and demacia so it makes sense that next is noxus and hints at both ionia and demacia for the next one after that.
@@Likespie99 Well I could be wrong but I remember the Noxian-Demacian War being before the war with Ionia which is why I think Demacia will be first. But I do think Ionia is an endgame. Perhaps if it's a two season thing or longer. I could see them focusing on Demacia for one season and then another season they swing over to Ionia. It's been a minute since I read up on the lore. But either way, I trust them to do a good job no matter what they do :)
1:42 A lot of League of Legend's cinematics and content happens early on in the year. Riot Games is worried about other content like the esports scene and other plans of the year the rest of the year.
At the end of the music video, the two people talking are Leblanc and Vladimir. The girl is the shadowy lady in arcane who mimic’d her brother. The leaders of the black rose, the ones who’re hunting Embessa
"if Vi and Cait had a child" is the dumbest thing i've heard.... put some respect on Katarina's name, she's one of the OG champions, way before Vi or Caitlyn...
Relax kid. its a fictional character. They don't even know Katarina and don't play league so obviously they will be drawing comparison on characters they know.
I love when ppl see Katarina and go: Uhh uhh Vi? VI? Because of a drop of red hair But ignore the fact that we just saw her NON tatooed back 3 seconds earlyer.. 😂😂
Just a note, this cinematic is not Arcane League of Legends, its just League of Legends, it has nothing to do with Arcane its a cinematic for the games season. Altho theres a chance its also a little teaser for the next show after Arcane thats taking place in Noxus, but this cinematic technically has nothing officially to do with any type of show
Although nothing is stated in regards of a show, it's abundantly clear that it's more of a teaser for what's to come rather than the game having it's teenage Noxus phase.
correction it is connected but in a teasing way. remember mel isnt in league yet. there is no mention of her other than arcane. 2 also all cinematics are now canon and arcane is too. 3 in old history noxus helped zaun in the piltover/zaun war. what leblanc and vlad talk about sounds more like arcane than the old history.
Riot stated more than one year ago that Arcane was canon and everything lore related from then on would be canon, so, yes, this cinematic has everything to do with League of Legends shows.
Mel is half baked in lol lore, she ain't powerful/impactful enough. She's given with a golden spoon, her, suddenly being able to go head-head with a leblanc clone doesn't make any sense. She doesn't deserve the power that the show has given her, too easy.
6:30 right now its "interesting" with fanbase reaction. ppl love arcane and love mopre is made but getting upset at riot for starting to update character models in game like lablanc to be like arcane design. then here with you calling katarina vi/cait look alike ppl also complaining the unique style kat and champs got is being "melted" together. gonna say this: in past retcon/visual updates happaned and ppl complained either way but for first time this maybe the biggest since riot is full course commiting to arcane continuity and designs. old fans ok with this and some are not and already hardcore lol ppl are calling newcomers expats on twitter with they reason lol will be ruined for good.
Loved your reactions.. By the way there are almost 169 champions /characters in League of Legends and you just saw a few of them at Arcane.. But you still try to guess Vi :D Bro here is the chance that you can guess 10/ 169 .. 10 League of Legends champion at Arcane right now.. one of them is Vi.. But 1/17 is a small chance for true guessing.. Everybody is not Vi :D hahaha
Chance are we are going to see anyone from Arcane unless there is lore that puts them in Noxus. So we are seeing champions in Noxus as opposed to those of Piltover and Zaun like Vi and Jinx
There are NOT different series coming at least not in the near future. This was a very very lose interpretation to what was said during an interview Necrit had with the show runners. They only stated there are multiple projects (projects can mean, games, series, movies, league seasons). The new League sesaon is centered around Noxus so there will be most likely no Noxus series. Since league will have 3 seasons per year now, my guess is that this year (2025) will have season 1 Noxus, season 2 Demacia and sseason 3 Ionia.
Pass Katarina as Cait and Vi child is so funny to me xD, because I see the resemblance that they are pointing out, plus I heard some other channels thinking or feeling the same way.
I agree with a comment that says Arcane characters are insignificant in the grand scheme of Runeterra. But I think they (the film maker or whatever) can and will do whatever they want, including making them significant. Which is disappointing imo. We definitely should've got another set of character for the new series. Which we will I think. Not a single one from Arcane. Sure people will feel more familiar with arcane characters, but I hate that way. I tolerate Mel bcz she's literally fresh new. While other characters already had their fate written on their lore.
It's a shame people coming from Arcane don't know the real Jinx, Caitlyn or Vi. They get some weak watered down version of each character with a needless love twist.
my only issue if this is a continuation is that this is approaching Rey from star wars. why is she good at magic with no training. That was a lot of magic use for someone who was never using it before and never been taught.
Between ep 3 and and ep 4 of Arcane s2 is 3-6 month time skip. Lets call it 4.5 months. Mel gets captured in ep 3. What we see in in 2nd act (her being imprisoned) is not happening at the same time as the other events. Its a rundown of everything that has happened to her. Lets say she wakes up imprisoned a week after being kidnapped. She figures out her brother is fake in a day (for sure less then 48 hours). Her journey from noxus to Piltover would take week or two. That gives us 114 days left unaccounted for. But lets be forgiving and round it down to 100 100 DAYS. Simple and smart assumption is that she has been trained by Black Rose for that period of time. She wakes up on the training grounds, cleaned up, with new clothes and not that surprised of where she is. She also has been trained by proffesionals and not learning on her own. She is naturally very strong with magic and she still couldnt even get close to the level of Ambessa. All that not even mentioning that I am 100% sure Mel as a kid was given a martial training prior to being banished
As an avid league lore (and Arcane) fan, this cinematic exceeded all my expectation.
- It is set shortly after Arcane. Mel arrives on the shores of Rokrund, the ancestral seat of her family (this is the same spot as in the Ambessa Blood Sweat and Tears video).

6:30 right now its "interesting" with fanbase reaction. ppl love arcane and love mopre is made but getting upset at riot for starting to update character models in game like lablanc to be like arcane design. then here with you calling katarina vi/cait look alike ppl also complaining the unique style kat and champs got is being "melted" together.
gonna say this: in past retcon/visual updates happaned and ppl complained either way but for first time this maybe the biggest since riot is full course commiting to arcane continuity and designs. old fans ok with this and some are not and already hardcore lol ppl are calling newcomers expats on twitter with they reason lol will be ruined for good.
W video boldcast ❤🔥🔥
Let's gooo
Not my goat in the comment section 🐐

Loved your reactions.. By the way there are almost 169 champions /characters in League of Legends and you just saw a few of them at Arcane.. But you still try to guess Vi :D Bro here is the chance that you can guess 10/ 169 .. 10 League of Legends champion at Arcane right now.. one of them is Vi.. But 1/17 is a small chance for true guessing.. Everybody is not Vi :D hahaha
you guys need to watch some videos of Necrit, he is a really cool guy that talks about League lore a stuff
Chance are we are going to see anyone from Arcane unless there is lore that puts them in Noxus. So we are seeing champions in Noxus as opposed to those of Piltover and Zaun like Vi and Jinx
We will see singed thats for sure
Singed, Oriana and Mel at best
Red hair = Vi 😂
This guy got a little similar face to young darius on this vid
Darius is still very young in the trailer
So no trifarix yet
Can't wait for Katarina and garen crumbs ❤
There are NOT different series coming at least not in the near future. This was a very very lose interpretation to what was said during an interview Necrit had with the show runners. They only stated there are multiple projects (projects can mean, games, series, movies, league seasons). The new League sesaon is centered around Noxus so there will be most likely no Noxus series.
Since league will have 3 seasons per year now, my guess is that this year (2025) will have season 1 Noxus, season 2 Demacia and sseason 3 Ionia.
I refuse to believe this isn't a trailer in disguise for Arcane Season 3.
Not Arcane season 3.
Season 1 spin off for an Entirely new show with a Different title.
I just hate the fact that annunknown character is the main protagonist in LOL
All lore related content from Riot is Cannon so this did happen, just like Arcane did happen
Pass Katarina as Cait and Vi child is so funny to me xD, because I see the resemblance that they are pointing out, plus I heard some other channels thinking or feeling the same way.
I think this is the way Fortiche likes to animate their strong woman. She also looks like Vi's mom a lot in some of the shots.
"is that vi" "arcane related" oh this is truly the worst of times
already whining
I agree with a comment that says Arcane characters are insignificant in the grand scheme of Runeterra.
But I think they (the film maker or whatever) can and will do whatever they want, including making them significant. Which is disappointing imo.
We definitely should've got another set of character for the new series. Which we will I think. Not a single one from Arcane. Sure people will feel more familiar with arcane characters, but I hate that way.
I tolerate Mel bcz she's literally fresh new. While other characters already had their fate written on their lore.
what is noxus? where is this in the timeline of arcane?
Noxus is a different country/region. Arcane show takes place in Piltover and Zaun. As for the timeline, it takes place after the show
It's a shame people coming from Arcane don't know the real Jinx, Caitlyn or Vi. They get some weak watered down version of each character with a needless love twist.
Feed this comment to the algorithm monster!

yeah it looks rly good but there is something about old school animation that really is special to me
Yah the old school animations are also good! They should check them out 👀
something is disturbing me with that title
Are yall siblings or cousins?
my only issue if this is a continuation is that this is approaching Rey from star wars. why is she good at magic with no training. That was a lot of magic use for someone who was never using it before and never been taught.
We'll she is the newest champion that they just released. Her character spotlight video showing off all her abilities in game was just released.
Between ep 3 and and ep 4 of Arcane s2 is 3-6 month time skip. Lets call it 4.5 months.
Mel gets captured in ep 3. What we see in in 2nd act (her being imprisoned) is not happening at the same time as the other events. Its a rundown of everything that has happened to her.
Lets say she wakes up imprisoned a week after being kidnapped. She figures out her brother is fake in a day (for sure less then 48 hours). Her journey from noxus to Piltover would take week or two. That gives us 114 days left unaccounted for. But lets be forgiving and round it down to 100
100 DAYS. Simple and smart assumption is that she has been trained by Black Rose for that period of time. She wakes up on the training grounds, cleaned up, with new clothes and not that surprised of where she is. She also has been trained by proffesionals and not learning on her own. She is naturally very strong with magic and she still couldnt even get close to the level of Ambessa.
All that not even mentioning that I am 100% sure Mel as a kid was given a martial training prior to being banished
She can repel things, i think thats why she is powerful
It was obviously a vision, not something that really happened.
"The sorceress" explicitly said to Mel that her potential was growing faster than normal because the arcane was waking up.
Mell is not even in the game
FIRST
Astarion 🤣 true
Vlad existed for years before that dude
