We expected a lot. We got a lot more. Arcane became Riot's perfect redemption. MERCH: ► www.designbyhumans.com/shop/N... Links: ► / necrit94 ► / necrit94 ► / necrit94 ► / discord ► / necrit94
Riot balance team: In order to stay consistent with Jinx’s lore and character identity, we decided to replace Jinx’s Chompers with a hextech grenade that one shots both her teammates and enemies
Absolute favorite part in the end is when Jinx hugs Silco, he gets confused, Jinx tells him that Vi betrayed her and is no longer her sister and Silco realizes that this is exactly how he felt when Wander betrayed him, immediately symphatizing with her and embracing her. Embracing her not as "hurr durr I am evil and will use you in my evil plans of evil muhahahaha", but as a person, who experienced the same exact pain in practically same fashion as she did. T H I S I S I N C R E D I B L E . I put all 10s on iMDB for this show, and I didn't even had an account there before.
The variance of level between ruination and Arcane is so massive that it seems impossible that Riot could make such an insane flop before such a completely mind-blowing animated series.
Notice the parallelism between the hextech working for Jayce but destroying jinx's family confirming Heimerdinger's point that the magic crystals can lead to destruction.
The facial animations and raw emotions are so insane. You can tell how these characters feel without them even speaking. I've waited 9+ years for this, I'm so happy.
After years of waiting, this is all I have ever wanted. It was a show of passion and love and care, not just another cash-grab series to sell merchandise. I can die in peace now
