@@peaceking9640 the noxians are just like the chinese soldiers from Fallout 3. They’ve been trained for war since they were just babies…and they never make prisoners
@ When Cait was being choked, Jinx took that moment to swoop in and take out Ambessa’s guard, and then failed because then she got caught too and was saved by Vander
I think between scenes Vi returned to the commune and let her know/ convinced her. It doesn’t look to have been that far. It’s just a voice line saying that “Your not gonna like it.” but it explains why Jinx didn’t jump the gun as soon as she saw Caitlyn and Singed enter the building. It’s possible that Vi told Caitlyn she had help, but didn’t tell her who it was. Hence Caitlyn’s surprised hostile “You!” once she gets her bearings. I think Vi didn’t tell her because otherwise Caitlyn would likely backpedal once she found out that A: Jinx was involved and B: Vi was working with her and considered Jinx her sister again.
Talked shit. Ate shit. If there was any other way Rictus was going to die, I'm glad they chose Vander showing him that Noxian might don't mean shit in the face of a father protecting his child.
@@user-ey4ut9uc8w Was he though? Was he really? He’s a right hand brute who copied Atreus’ style and did what Ambessa tells him to do. A sharp jawline does not make one a chad.
Ironically if she hadn’t upgraded her pistol she probably would have killed him. Then again if she hadn’t she probably wouldn’t have slowed Vander down enough in Stillwater for him to recognise her.
Ponytail nerf is crazy. I can imagine a gimmick where most of the fights that she lost turned out to be ones that she'd suppose to statistically won if it wasn't for her Rapunzel ahh braids.
100% agree, I don't know if it's a symbollic thing, like she has long hair because Vi had short hair, and Jinx is trying to prove she is her own person, but COME ON now, this has happened at least twice now. Could also be her mental state as well, feel like she is walking that fine line adrenaline junky and suicidal. You don't see this happening to Vi, or any other character. Either tie up your hair or cut it.
Oh the classic which is better debate, Strength over Speed. Jinx might not be the strongest, even after her shimmer surgery, but that doesn't matter if she's too fast to be touched, Same deal with Big man, he could probably one hit KO anyone, but that doesn't matter if he can't land a hit. But in this case it's obvious, whoever pisses off Warwick loses, regardless of build.
@@user-ey4ut9uc8w It’s a rather pointless debate when it really comes down to the combination of the three as lacking any one will leave you with gaps in your style. But I would posit that in terms of fundamentals it goes Speed>Strength>Skill Skill alone won’t close a gap in strength or speed for you. You need to have strength and speed of your own to make it worth anything. By the same token Speed is powerless without Strength or Skill. You won’t land many hits or deal any damage without the others. And of course Strength means nothing if you cannot hit your opponent or survive yourself. Of the three I would say Speed is foundational. Speed is survival first, and gives the first key to victory. As Bruce Lee would say “Speed kills.” Evasion keeps you alive and in the fight, victory is worthless if you don’t survive to claim it. Strength is the next. Without it, you cannot ensure your opponent goes down. Even without skill it could still work. It would be difficult, ungainly and risky but it could happen. And when I say Strength I mean the ability to damage your opponent. From a clubbing maul to a needle rapier being able to harm the other is Strength. Skill ensures you can bring the other advantages together but without them, it won’t amount to much. It amplifies your strengths and is the key to mastery but it’s not a fundamental.
Warwick (I still see him aa Vander 😢) saying that here is so fucking cold. I jumped out of my bed going "hell yeah, dad!" I absolutely adore his relationship with Vi/Jinx (Powder). I'm actually super pissed off because now hes truly going to turn into the beast and I'm confident we don't get another wholesome moment like this again
I think it’s because she’s noticed it. She didn’t quite see it on the first shot, but saw it on the second. Which is why she doesn’t fire a third time, instead trying to outmanoeuvre him so she can put him in a position where he can’t block which is why she seems to be targeting the glaive. She’s attentive and perceptive, it just wasn’t quite enough.
The thing i noticed is that hes not blocking the shots. Hes neutralizing them. Whatever runes are on his weapon its like theyre dispersing the magic in the shots. Never seen anything like it Its like its a weapon specifically designed to combat mages
It looks to be an in-game item called Kaernic Rookern. An anti-magic talisman that disperses and absorbs magic. Ordinarily not a good item to face down the physical damage/attack speed heavy Jinx but this is Lore vs Crunch and she doesn’t have the minigun.
Taking Papa Wolf to a new level. Rictus, Ambessa and to an extent Singed missing an important detail. That this is not a beast, this is a man. A father. I don’t think it ever occurred to the Noxians what exactly they were hunting. And it was so satisfying to see this brutish asscrack pay the price for it.
Speedster Jinx confirmed? Okay, yeah, I LOVE SPEEDSTER characters, so if anything, my headcanon is that she's a speedster in the Arcane universe... Of course, she is kinda slower then Zeri, but Zeri has to keep amplifying herself based on lore, so the same could go for Jinx, both sharing a similar gameplay, one based on the ever thrilling madness of the Adrenaline and the other being ... She was in a worker family, and her connection to Electricity rom its every notch and jolted cranny, proves to be all the All-Spark of her Speed. In conclusion : DRUGS!!!
But you already know the ending, Jayce leads piltover, Cait & vi work for him. Jinx stays the troublemaker and Vander becomes warwick. Singed daughter is Orianna and Viktor will clash with Jayce multiple times.
Notice how Rictus caught her braids exactly like Vi did? I think that (along with Isha's death) is a big reason why we see her with her braids cut off in the trailer. She's sacrificing style in favor of practicality which is so unlike the character we've known so far.
You know what bothers me? the guy could have just swung a cross attack downwards and got jinx. but my guy cut like he was darius or something. PLOT ARMOR.
@@kirillsiruk8734 But it is part of his training as a warrior, knowing how to use his weapons to defend himself and knowing the weaknesses of others. In another case, if both of them fought bare knuckles, without weapons or anything, Jinx wouldn't have a chance either. Rictus' strength is incredible
@@Im._.Branxo Yeah but Jinx also kept up with Warwick for quite a while, probably longer than Rictus could have, Jinx has superhuman strength/durability from the shimmer treatment, she's still definitely not as strong as Rictus but the difference might not be too crazy. Jinx is also absurdly fast, the fight literally shows Rictus not being able to keep up with her speed, so he grabbed her braids instead of her.
@@Voxalyst Speed and reflex keeps you alive. That’s her advantage, but without a weapon Jinx usually lacks the power to put someone down. Which is partly why she makes so many.
That moment when he realises he now faces Warwick and his size no longer matters...love it.
Yeah, I doubt any non-champion noxian is a match for Vander now. Honestly, very few champion noxians are.
@@LordVanOskuro

@dtm2741 is it wrong I was hoping Briar was this Singed's daughter instead of Ori?
"your death will be a deep cut"- says the guy who died like swiss cheese
.... i just realized this was a pun
This guy was clean. Him blocking all of Jinx's shots was hype.
Jinx not spacing!
@@peaceking9640 the noxians are just like the chinese soldiers from Fallout 3. They’ve been trained for war since they were just babies…and they never make prisoners
To be honest Jinx was good too. Maybe if she use not a hex weapon, she would win
@@kirillsiruk8734More like if her hair were shorter since that’s how he got the higher ground
Kaenic Rookern OP plz nerf.
His death was an even deeper cut to Ambessa
You can tell she respected and even liked him
1:10 “And this was the moment that he knew-he 🤬 up.”
He made a calculated risk...but MAN was he bad at math
1:03 THAT is a father who is been through worse and still surviving! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Yep. Fought a war, battled with Silco (ex-best friend), got killed, been through Singed's tortures, became a beast... I feel so bad for this family.
Papa wolf be kickin' ass on that sucker!
More people need to mention the fact Jinx attempted to save Cait in this moment! Like that is huge!!!!
What do you mean attempted?
@ When Cait was being choked, Jinx took that moment to swoop in and take out Ambessa’s guard, and then failed because then she got caught too and was saved by Vander
@@Jun-sx9yg If Jinx hadn't intervened when she did Caitlyn would be carrion. Even if Vander finished the fight Jinx is the true hero here.

Jinx keeps using her passive for movement speed 😅
But then the braids starting to look real grabbable.

Jinx really need to work on that pony tails lol. Lost to Vi for that too.

and what did you think was going to happen? he still doesn't have his muzzle so he ain't done transforming
So one eyes belong to the beast, and one eye belongs to Vander created by Viktor to help him see reality.
Nah both eyes are from the murk wolves. One head has yellow eyes the other blue
Nah, the Murkwolf has two pairs of different coloured eyes which we saw Singed extract.
U mess with jinxs you get Warwick and a serious mega punch👊
I believe in this case is a mega backhanded slap

Nah, his body posture afterward, and the shadow we see through the window shows that it was a forearmed strike from his right hand.
