So apparently there was no lore in the Jinx cinematics. Wish she had some buddies 😔
She got whole movie bruh
Yep, several of the trailers are for skins, its kinda like a multiverse, there is canon jinx, star guardian jinx, Christmas jinx, Odyssey Jinx and a lot of characters has like other versions
Before Arcane I've seen Jinx as a crazy Harley Quinn counterpart in league. But now, every old cinematic hits different 😭
Lux is the blonde haired demacian girl with the giant laser. Her using magic in the end is of particular notice because magic is outlawed in Demacia. She is a mage in hiding up to that point. Check out the comic book, "Lux" . You get a whole breakdown of Lux and Sylas
I wish too, I wish Arcane can do something about it in the future.
rn I am basically coping with reading Fanfic of Crackship (Jinx x Lux, they kinda close on the star guardian universe).
I love the realization the “Vi, The Piltover Enforcer” is indeed an enforcer. She works for “Caitlyn, Sheriff of Piltover.”
With not for
Talking about Sylas and him making a sword out of his hand. The character is a mage, and in Demacia magic is outlawed. This bit with him making a sword is an awesome touch, because in the game, Sylas's ultimate ability allows him to copy the ultimate ability of an enemy near him. So in this cinematic, he conjures garen's (the guy he is fighting) sword out of thin air and is going to finish him off with a magical copy of his own weapon.
Should have taken Lux’s ult like he always does to me in game lol.
Despite garen hating magic because a mage killed his uncle. He unknowingly wields a magic sword, that why sylas was able to take the magic from his weapon. This supported by swain's quote againts garen "demacia, hypocrites who wield the very weapon they hate".
"Demacia magic is outlawed"
It's a bit more than that. Demacia is actively holding a genocide against mages, including mages born within their own population. Sylas, who escapes the prison he was in (still with his chains) with the help of Lux (that girl that fires light beams) and is now the leader of the mage rebellion that causes/caused a civil war in Demacia.
The copy of the sword is deeper then the game ulti ... theoretically garen is a sword master not a mage, but in the fight sylas absorbs magic to copy the sword. From where? Simple from the actual sword that have powers from Kayle herself. Garen ultimate is actually Kayle's sword falling over opponents... aspect of justice
I don't play LoL but I play Wild Rift. I wish Sylas will be playable in Wild Rift!! He's so cool 🥲
3 things:
1. You should think of Odyssey, K/DA, True Damage, and all the other skin lines as being in different universes or alternate realities to main lore, and thus shouldn't compare the Arcane lore and character characteristics to other cinematics, especially since we don't know how Arcane fits into overall League of Legends lore yet.
2. Arcane is designed as a Piltover/Zaun focused prequel to the games lore, but it also doesn't fully align to the games existing lore. It changes some origin stories and timelines that impact quite a few things. And as far as I'm aware, none of the story writers have said if they will retcon the lore to fit with Arcane, or will Arcane become just another skin-line universe/alternate reality like the ones mentioned in #1.
3. League of Legends: Wild Rift is mobile (Android, and iOS) version of the game.
Glad to see more new people getting into the universe.
I think Arcane will stay its own universe, maybe some elements will be brought over into the main universe later but not all of it.
They made no attempt to change any of the main lore to fit with Arcane.
In Zeri's story (which released after Arcane Act 3) she rescued Ekko's parents, who are not mentioned in Arcane whatsoever, so they are presumably dead.
I would really like if Riot brought Silco into the main universe.
Riot said that he won't become a champion, but already put him in TFT, so I'd like to see him as a card in Legends of Runeterra or at least mentioned in a new Jinx story.
So far, Riot has said that Arcane is not canon for LoL. I'm assuming it is because they want to keep their options open for making dramatic changes like killing off champions. If it is all canon, then we know who has plot armor. But if it isn't canon, then all bets are off the table.
@@wynq Yep. Riot & Fortiche Productions said that Arcane is its own canon (for now of course). Like MCU/Marvel Comics. I would love it to stay that way, as you mentioned, that would make everything less predictable.
true arcane lore dont fit into camile lore
Although Arcane does deviate a bit, it is incredibly faithful to the actual LoL lore.
the thing ive always taken from Warriors, way before Arcane, was Vi not needing her gauntlets to be a badass. We already know that, but her taking on urgot without her gauntlets or other piece of equipment is just such an awesome detail.
Agreed!
Garen - Commander of Demacia's army.
Lux - Garen's sister and a mage
Sylas - A mage outlaw who taught Lux how to control her magic.
Galio - A living statue built to fight against mages and also Lux's friend.
Ezreal - A kid from Piltover who likes to go on adventures around the world.
Kai'Sa - She fights the Void and those little creatures.
Urgot - A former Noxian executioner turned Zaunite miner prisoner who leads a cult and also rules lower parts of Zaun.
Garen - Commander of Demacia's army, where magic is completely forbidden.
Lux - A mage
Ezreal a kid?? Ok..
@@shevalane Garen is a member of the royal family ruling Demacia but I don't think he's actually leading the army, that would be Jarvan the 4th j think
@@redsnowtk1678 bro he's literally a kid XD
@@redmoonknight1130 Jarvan IV is the king of Demacia and Garen is the leader of army.
This a potential Arcane spoiler based on game lore.
In game, Vi and Caitlyn are both enforcers. They are partners. Vi is basically the bad cop to Caitlyns good cop.
Man, if Vi's thinking she's still gonna reach Jinx, joining the enforcers is the absolute worst thing she could do.
@@kenjutsukata1o1 She thinks Jinx needs to be stopped cause of all the mayhem she causes.
@@kenjutsukata1o1 Based on the teaser for Arcane Season 2, she's trying to PROTECT both Jinx and Caitlyn who are on a collision course where one of them will very likely die. That's her reasoning for abandoning Zaun which is the reason why pretty much every Zaunite champ in game calls her a snake for "switching side", Ekko, Zeri, Renata, Warwick. Everyone tells her she turned her back on Zaun, but they don't understand that in Vi's mind, becoming an Enforcer and stopping her sister herself is the only way she can think to protect the two people she loves. Season 2 will likely deal with that.
In the canon lore as far we know Vi is still an amnesiac, she didn't know that Jinx was Powder until they shared that moment in the Vault from Vi's biography well into adulthood. Jinx was just this criminal who was obsessed with pissing Vi off from her perspective because she can't remember her childhood up to the point where she started her own gang, Arcane and Canon are two very different set-ups. Riot may change the canon to be more like Arcane like people are asking, but I wouldn't hold my breath because that would just fuck a lot of other things up that would take too long to go into. Like the Brackern, or Camille's origin, Jayce not being the one to invent hextech etc etc.
In the game, Caitlyn is known as the Sheriff of Piltover and Vi is an enforcer. Jinx is a chaotic entity who enters the lore later as an antithesis to the law and order Caitlyn and Vi represent.
They already gotta have sex
Both of you should totally watch the "Awaken" and "The Call" cinematics, they're just as good or maybe even better than the "Warriors" cinematic you both just watched. It's just as action packed, visually amazing and the music is really good as well.
Those are classics that everyone should see who start checking out the cinematics, but my favorite is Kin of the Stained Blade. The animation in that is amazing.
Those two are the best cinematic from LOL
I've been waiting sooo long for Awaken and The Call ahhhh
'breath' is awesome too..
warriors is still the best :(
Fun fact there’s a star guardian universe where jinx has buddies! Lux (the blonde girl) is in it too and its stated that they’re childhood best friends. Love your reactions btw!!
On the side note, the goggles are indeed Claggor's, and you can see Caitlyn's hat in the episode 2 of Arcane. First in the family picture, and for a second time when she's fidgeting with it while convincing her parents to help Jayce. There are a lot of easter eggs, it's really cool to see you're starting to notice them!
_(Btw, Ange, I agree with you. Jinx is the best character :p)_
Damn right she is! 😅💙
She is also wearing the hat in episode 4!
@@cthulhuwu_ That's not the top hat, just the enforcer uniform hat.
easter*
@@GentlyUsedFrog Oh thanks ! There was something bugging me in the sentence, couldn’t find what it was ^^’
Star guardian cinematics is really good, its a league of legend skin line. They have 3, jinx and ahri are in it
Second this idea. They are so good.
And Lux
Caitlin was holding her hat in her hands into the second episode, talking with her parents before the trial.
It's also on a rack in the background in her room in episode 8.
I think we can also see her hat hanging somewhere in her room in episode 8?
The Call is by far the best cinematic Riot has produced thus far. Cant wait to see you guys react to that.
Definitely give "The Call" a react its an even better cinematic than warriors
Awaken is the best
and then theres the 2023 one🤣🤣
Funny cause when the Warriors cinematic came out.. It was the first time people realized Vi had hands under those gauntlets haha. We legit thought she was a cyborg
😅
All league of legends players thought the same hahaha we dont had a great back story for her
@@ESP_Blinks not all players... I never thought they were. . . lol
I mean, anyone who ever read Vi's lore knew she was just using hextech gauntlets! 😂😂😂
@@lumanianilin1198 Haha well it's pretty obvious now. But back then, specially the number of citizens in Pilt and Zaun who did body enhancements and how popular it is, even people who are lore experts needed that confirmation. But it was a nice trivia!
cant wait for you guys to react to "Awaken" and "The Call". There are no Arcane characters on those, but you simply MUST :D
And in that order would be awesome.. saving best for last(The Call)!
I believe there's a high possibility we see knifelegs in season 2, they already namedropped her clan in Arcane.
PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!
@@EgoJinpachi_ In the scene in which Mel is introduced, her assistant mentions House Ferros.
@@EgoJinpachi_ you saw the 2 chairs empty in the council right? One was for Heimer and another one was for Camille's clan. I think they even dropped the name. It must be Ferros. Camille isn't what we know of yet though.
So a short explanation of each cinematic:
*Warriors:*
3 stories. The first one is as you said between Demacia and Freljord. It's like a small Demacian expedition that are trying to get Lux (blonde girl, Garen's sister) out safely since she is a mage. The guy they were fighting is called Sylas and he was locked up as a mage since being a child in a Demacian prison. He got out and the chains he has are the one's he was locked in. He is a leading a rebellion against Demacia and their anti-mage politics. He is very, very powerful. Lux calls Galio who is a specially mage statue out of magic absorbing material (I believe it's either a type of stone or wood). Galio is like an anti-magic protector and he hasn't moved in decades/centuries until this point. He is a huge dude.
The second story is happening in a Pilovan prison. Some goons are coming to free Urgot (the crab guy, he is not the one Ekko is fighting in Seconds). Urgot is like a chem baron and we might see his story in season two. I believe he has Noxian origins. Vi and Caitlyn are the ones who put him in prison in the first place and they are here to make sure he stays there because he is extremely dangerous, especially ideologically.
The 3rd story is about Ezreal (the blond guy) who is an explorer in search of his parents. In this clip he entered a place in Shurima (the desert) that was holding back the void (you'll learn more about it on the coming year - it's a huge thing in Runeterra and it might relate to what happened to the Hexcore in Arcane). The artifact is called the Tier of the Goddess which is an item in the League of Legends game. Anyway, he is taking it and thus dispelling the protection from the void and it immediately comes to invade Runeterra. The girl who comes to save him is Kai'Sa (you saw her in KDA. She is the dancer of the group). Kai'Sa is a void symbiote. She is trying to protect Shurima from being invading by it. You'll get more of that in The Call cinematic. Warriors is a really fun one in terms of champion selection.
The recruitment ad by Jinx is featuring hers truly, the big guy Malphite (he is tiny here. In the lore he is an entire mountain. One of the largest being in Runeterra (second to Aurelion Sol I believe who is a huge space dragon that creates stars. More on that in The Call). So, Jinx, Malphite, the sword guy Yasuo. You'll see a lot more of him in other cinematics. There is one specifically for his and his brother's lore. The villain Jinx is fawning over is Kayn, who is a very interesting character that fights against the weapon he is holding. It's called a Darkin and it relates to many other lore things in Runeterra. I think you'll learn about it later in As We Fall music video about Varus. The last champion we see is in the end and it's a girl called Sona. She is a musician that is mute. She is Demacian by origin. She has a really cool story on the universe website.
Third cinematic is a launch trailer for the mobile game version of League of Legends called Wild Rift. It just features a lot of fun characters and there is no lore. Jinx, Lux being bored studying in Demacia, Yasuo fighting some Navori people with a spoon and also being bored, Blitzcrank being lonely (you'll see him in Arcane season two I believe). The last team character is Teemo who you saw in the "Don't Mess with Yordles" Tales of Runeterra cinematic and in a children's book in Arcane at Marcus' daughter's room. The enemy team is made of Zed (shadow ninja), Ahri, Camille (you'll see her in the Awaken cinematic and maybe in Arcane season 2. She is very important to the origin of the hex crystals in Piltover. Braum and Malphite (looking more like mountain this time but still small compared to the lore). Basically Jinx brings everyone to have fun away from boredom signifying the game is really fun and it makes for a fantastic trailer.
Lastly, Jayce and Caitlyn were released in Wild Rift because of Arcane. They existed way before in League of Legends. It's their modern outifits.
I hope this helps. For much more information especially of Warriors, I recommend watching Necrit's video on the subject. Love how you enjoy the League ride. Eagerly waiting for the Ekko theme cover. Might hop into your Patreon since you guy's provide so much great entertainment with this League content and I really appreciate it!
i hope they read this one
@@EgoJinpachi_ Thats not short, but its a good explanation. thats why i hope they read, even if i dont think they will
Sona is Demacian? I always thought she was from Ionia.
@@3LastSon she was born in Ionia but lives in Demacia
@@EgoJinpachi_ It is succinct. There's a lot of extra context. For example, just for the Snowy fight scene, there's a huge significance to all that. Demacia, the guys in armor, don't trust mages and people with magical ability (they're like pretty racist about it), so all their mages basically either get conscripted into a special super secret police force, sent to prison for existing, or both. The guy with the chains is called Sylas, he was conscripted when he was a kid then betrayed and thrown in jail, and those gauntlets on his arms are made of a special magical rock native to Demacia called Petricite which absorbs and nullifies magic. They had him in those chains for years, just draining the magic out of him, until he figured out that he could turn it around and use the rock to steal magical abilities from other people.
The blonde girl is called Lux Crownguard, she's the little sister of Garen Crownguard, and the Crownguards are kind of a big deal in Demacia. They're not royalty, but they're sort of the most famous and important non-Nobles. They're the Beckhams basically, but if the Beckhams you know saved Britain from monsters countless times. Well, she's a mage, or more accurately, was born with the innate ability to wield the arcane (remember in Arcane, Jayce's ability to turn magic into a tool for everyone was significant because most folks can't just do it), which she didn't know until she was already quite a public face of the family. For a million and one reasons, it's not really a good look to have one of your super famous popular common families all of a sudden up and have one of their kids get disappeared by the secret police, so she's allowed to basically continue being cool and magical.
One day, she's run out crying because she accidentally did a magic again, and she runs to this famous Petricite statue that I think at the time is just called The Protector, and she has so much magic she literally wakes the damn thing up. It becomes alive, it has a voice, and it can move and talk because she's got so much magic that just being near her, it absorbs enough to come to life.
So she's like "wtf, how am I so magical" and starts researching and stuff and eventually she finds out there's this other super powerful dude called Sylas who got nabbed by the secret police, and so she uses her social position and power to go talk to him and eventually he's like "It's distinctly not fair that just because of who we are, we live in cages," and she's like "I don't live in a cage," and he's like "Don't you? You have to dump all your magic into living statue just so that people don't find out about you, your family hides your power and your gifts, and you go along with all of it." And she's like "Oh damn," and eventually she decides to help free him, thinking it's humanitarian.
But dude been in a cage having his magic drained for like a decade and so he's got a bit of a chip on his shoulder and starts a mage rebellion in Demacia, actively attempting to murder the king and topple the old order. Eventually, he runs off to the Freljord (just north of Demacia) and recruits a bunch of their raiders (many of whom have ice magic) to help him come back and attack Demacia.
Enter this sequence, where Lux's brother tries to stop him and gets his ass handed to him, and Lux sees a mage blasting dudes with ice who gets killed and drops his scepter, and she's like, "Ok, well, no more hiding I guess," so she pops off a beam of magical light powerful enough to summon the protector, who's real name is Galio, who shows up just in time to save Garen and rally the Dauntless Vanguard (the soldiers around them). The significance of this is that there's like a hundred of these dudes around, so there's no more hiding for Lux. She still believes in Demacia, but she's essentially "outed" now, because there's no way to contain the truth about her with all these soldiers around.
...that's all the context missing from *one* scene in that trailer.
I love how honest you guys are about simping for arcane -- its beautiful and authentic and its what keeps me coming back
We’re glad 😊
Galio keeps vigilant watch. Built as a bulwark against enemy mages, he often stands motionless for decades.
So basically a Demacian Custodes
The blonde girl is Garens sister, the Demacian with the sword. Also fun fact, the brass robot is Blitzcrank, and was made by Viktor!
Ohhh wow!
@@CarlieAndAnge - Think this person just spoiled it. XD
@@CarlieAndAnge LUX ( sisters garen) cant use magic in Demacia thats why is boring.
I think blitz is arrive in season 2
@@neogetright7542 I mean Carlie and Ange have already stated they don't care that if they get some spoilers by familiarizing themselves with the lore. They said they'll take some spoilers with the added knowledge of understanding and knowing these characters for the future seasons of Arcane. So I wouldnt worry about lore related spoilers. Knowing what Viktor looks like is a HUGE spoiler, and if they already havent seen what his champion looks like, they definitely will soon.
12:15 her name is Kaisa she also appears in KDA videos with Evelyn Ahri and Akali
15:01 Lux blonde girl
Akali was my favorite probably followed Kai'sa and Ahri
Giving a summary of the characters that appear in Warriors:
Caitlyn and Vi: Both are working partners, because yes, Vi is now an enforcer.
Ezreal: The blond boy who steals the blue gem, called "The Tear of the Goddess" (an in-game item) is a treasure hunter from Piltover. He visits several places in Runeterra. Some say that in this video he is in Shurima.
Kai'sa: She came from the Void, probably the greatest danger in Runeterra, in short, the Void that consumes everything and Kai'sa is the only survivor from there. The monsters of the Void feel an insatiable hunger, and we'll be getting more updates on this place this year, according to Riot Games.
(She is the dancer in the KDA universe as well).
Lux: She is a mage from a noble family of Demacia, she is also the younger sister of Garen (the warrior who also appears in the video). Up until this point, Lux had never shown her powers due to Demacia's oppression.
Sylas: It's the guy with the chains, also a mage from Demacia. It turns out that in Demacia the use of magic is forbidden and Sylas with all the other mages have been imprisoned for years in Demacia's prisons, now he wants to overthrow one by one who is in power.
Galio: The stone giant, is a sentinel of Demacia, he absorbs magic. We recently discovered that there are more giant sentry guardians in Demacia!
Saying magic is forbidden in Demacia is the greatest understatement I have heard in a long time lmao. I would love two new series in the way of Arcane. One for Demacia's mage inquisition and one for Shurima's slavery problem
@@tilltronje1623 Yeah, it turns out that the story of Demacia is based on the true persecution and annihilation of the mages, something that can be compared to a very sad story of reality. I leave it light for the absorption of information to be more digestible.
You guys freaking out about Vi and Cait gave me life. It's so stinking cute!
I don't know much about a lot of the characters but as someone said, The girl with the shoulder canons in purple is Kai'sa, she's in K/DA ! (this is just her OG look I believe, something to do with her body fusing with these type of bugs??? Im not 100% sure off the top of my head)
And the blonde girl is Lux and uses "Arcane" :) (that is all I know but there are theories/potentially canon that her and Jinx are friends.. in an alternate universe version! SORRY LEAGUE PEOPLE Im not fully sure! )
Nice! Thanks heaps 😊
Also the guy you were asking about in the welcome aboard. "yasuo" Hes in the "true Damage" music video! :) (Along with Akali! :D, who is in K/DA )
@@CarlieAndAnge ALSO! (Sorry promise this is my last comment!) Caits outfit, you can ACTUALLY see a Easter egg of it in Arcane!
In epi 2, young Caitlyn is holding the hat in her house with her mom and dad, and in Caits bedroom, you can see it in the corner hanging up! Or at least a very similar outfit! :)Which I thought was cute af!
From what I've seen a lot of people ship Jinx and Lux
@@LangkeeLongkee Oh yeah I have seen it too!
Lux's story is so cool. The graphic novel about her is really good! The Warriors cinematic hits even harder with the context
Galio lands
- He: "what is that?"
- League player: "you have much to learn, young one."
😂
To summarize Warriors: We have Freljord, Zaun, and Shurima. Garen and Lux are siblings and they're protecting a Demacian keep on the borders of their land from Sylas, a guy who was imprisoned for years for being a mage. The chains he uses to fight are those he was held by in his prison. He used Lux to get out since he can steal magic (he stole Garen's ultimate ability, his sword.) No one besides Garen knows Lux is a mage and they're royalty, so in a desperate situation she uses it in front of her soldiers to call Galio, a giant colossus from Demacia made of anti-magic metal (also what Sylas' chains are made of bc it absorbs magic) to come help. He's only awakened by gigantic bouts of magic. Demacia hates magic sooo Lux revealing such a thing is a big deal.
Zaun: The one released from the giant glass is Urgot, though the guy Ekko was fighting looked quite similar. Urgot has crablike legs that shoot like shotguns whereas the guy Ekko faces has normal legs :) A lot of people in Zaun have those masks for the air. His men are freeing him from a prison, Vi and Cait are there to stop them since they're enforcers. Quite simple.
Shurima: Ezreal is an explorer and treasure hunter who has a magical gauntlet. He's taking something called The Tear of the Goddess from a temple, and it set off a trap from the Void. Kai'sa comes in, having been trapped in the Void for years. Her suit is a symbiote and has adapted to her body. She goes around Shurima killing Void creatures, you'll see her again in the newest cinematic music video The Call helping a girl named Taliyah.
Unfortunately it wasn't the Freljords but on the Demacian border just before the Freljords.
@@presidentjesus5063 Yeah, I mentioned the border but still I'm counting it as Freljord for the sake of snow = Freljord most of the time lol.
@@PlaneToSpain No worries. I watched uhm Necrit's video on it where he tried to pinpoint the probable setting on the map and I believe he pointed somewhere In Uwendale or High Silvermere, Demacia (or im between!)
Big lore time about warriors:
In Demacia magic is forbidden and all mages get arrested just for being a mage, even kids and such, so the "magic sword" guy, Sylas, escaped from jail and start a rebelion against Demacia to free all the mages, that was the battle about, because Garen and Lux (the blond lady and Garen sister) is part of a militar family (the Crownguard, so Garen Crownguard and Lux Crownguard)... And yes, Lux is a mage and it's free because she hide her power from everyone to not get in jail... So in the final she use her magic in the middle of the battle to save Demacia from Sylas... She shot her magic to the Sky to wake up Galio, the big statue guy, who as made with a material that absorbs magic, but to wake up (he's a statue after all) he needs A LOT of magic close to him, that's what Lux did, give him the magic power... Sylas chains is made of the same Galio's material, that's why he can absorb magic too, and his power is basically copy all magic he fight against, so he can't do magic on his own, he need absorb someone magic first, the touch of the magic sword it's because he absorb the magic of Garen sword, meaning that Garen have magic power too (again, in Demacia magic is forbidden, so it's really "funny" how the "face of demacia" have magic powers xD)
About the purple lady she's Kai'sa, a girl who was in the void for a really long time (that's why she looks like a void creature, being purple, yes... almost all the purple things in league of legends are void or singed related :b) and then is now hunting all voids creatures around Shurima. Ezreal, the blond guy, is an "archaeologist" (some people call him a thief xD), he's from piltover but he more like a hermit, don't have a place, he just explore the world to get some artifacts and he pretty much just explore around Shurima (and sometimes Ionia and Freljord), in warriors he was after the artifact called "Tear of the godness" (it's an item in the game) and active a trap that realease void creatures, that's why Kai'sa was there fighting against the void.
Well, yes, Caitlyn and Vi are now partners and they was fighting Urgot, his lore is a bit weird... He's like a... "self-proclaimed" god and some people in Zaun believe him, so there's a whole religious cult praise him xD
Interestingly, Ezreal has explored every region in Runeterra EXCEPT for Ionia and the Shadow Isles
@@HY0 really? I'm so sure I read something with him in Ionia... Well, mistake happens xD but still, most of his "job" is in shurima
@@HY0 now I'm thinking maybe I got the wrong memory from that writer guy who fell in love with Ahri when he saw her taking a bath 😂
@@wellesoncarvalho Haha no worries! Yeah, I think he explores the most in Shurima too, but he had some fun stories in Noxus and Demacia too. According to him, apparently the tacos in Noxus are really good 😂
It's always nice to see you both slowly learning new characters' name. When Arcane Season 2 is out, I bet both of you will be excited to recognize them IF they do appear.
Also love the reactions. :D
We cant wait! Thats why we’re watching these. Thanks! 😊
the pure fact that video games have reached a point that they play on our emotions is absolutely amazing in itself
For Shurima:
1. Descend into the tomb
2. Rise of the ascendet
3. Legends of Runterra; Shurima
4. Taliyah the stone weaver
5. Rek'Sai the terror from beneth
Thanks!
Quick aside about Wild Rift: It's actually a promo for the mobile version of League. Which is apparently much easier to get into than the computer version (it's a bit simplified), so a good entry point if either of you are interested in getting into it.
I'll summarize the 3 stories in Warriors:
-Vi and Caitlyn are both enforcers and find a secret experiment: his name is Urgot and, despite the similarities, he is not the same guy that Ekko fought in Seconds.
-In what probably is the frontier of Demacia and Freljord, Garen (guy with big sword) and his sister, Lux, are being attacked by Freljordians. Magic is forbidden in Demacia, and Sylas (guy with chains) is a Demacian mage that can sense other mages and steal their powers. Lux is also secretly a mage, but reveals herself to summon Galio, who is a construct that becomes activated by magic. He is Demacia's ultimate defense against mages.
-Ezreal, who is an archaelogist from Piltover, is trying to steal the Tear of the Goddes (which is an item in LoL). He is attacked by creatures from another world called The Void. He is rescued by Kai'sa who was once trapped in The Void and now uses a symbiotic armor that she got there to fight The Void.
All the characters I named above are playable in LoL.
I'm so happy to see guys reaction to “Warriors"....btw if you think Warriors cinematic is so good...wait till you see “Awaken" & “The Call"
One thing you've gotta know is in some of these animations especially in 'Welcome aboard the odyssey' one is not all of them are connected to the lore (a lot of them ) they are just promotional videos for the release of the skinlines, although some of them like 'Warriors' have some connection to the lore.
Yeah thought so. We do mention that somewhere in the video
+1 The cinematics are lore based but all other stuff is commercial
@@MrLoppiet But they also treat skinlines has separate univerises like Star Guardians, Odyssey, Battlecast/Resistance. But only the most popular ones have their own lore so far.
So to help clarify some of the characters on the "Warriors" cinematic:
- Girl with blonde hair and a magic wand at the end is called Lux
- The big statue guy at the end is Galio
- The demacia guy is called Garen (Galio and Lux are both from Demacia aswell)
- The guy that "makes" a sword out of "light" is called Sylas (the sword he makes is a replica of Garen's sword due to the ultimate ability of Sylas in game)
- Girl with purple painting and black hair is Kai'sa (you saw her in KDA)
- Guy with blonde hair and blue eyes in the same scene than Kai'sa is called Ezreal
As for the other 3 you got them right (Urgot, Caitlyn and Vi), hope this helps.
And I'm with Ange, Jinx is indeed the best character even before Arcane!
Yeah. and Statue guy is a "gargoyle" : In architecture, and specifically in Gothic architecture, a gargoyle (/ˈɡɑːrɡɔɪl/) is a carved or formed grotesque with a spout designed to convey water from a roof and away from the side of a building, thereby preventing rainwater from running down masonry walls and eroding the mortar between. but in fantasy and such they can be turned to life, often as protectors of the buildings/area. which is exactly what galio is.
I've been waiting thanks for the upload.
I just love seeing you both get excited watching these
😅
Kai'sa (the girl in purple with the floaty things hovering behind her shoulders) is in K/DA with Ahri and the others, but lots of people sort of miss her/forget her, since she's not front and center in any of their vids for more than a few seconds (and it's easy to overlook everything else when Ahri and Evelynn are there 🙂 )
She's sort of the dedicated enemy of the swarming guys from deep below the earth (the Void), since they killed everyone she knew and loved, and tried to kill her as a little girl, only she somehow survived it, and ended up fused with one of them, which gives her destructive powers but also results in her needing to struggle against the urges from the void part of herself that are always whispering to her to kill and destroy and kill some more until everything non-Void is wiped out.
Some people give her and the art team grief because she's 'too sexy' for a half-monster hybrid, but those people are just sad and wrong and Kai'sa is awesome and kick-ass and proud of her hotness NYAH!
Please do awaken and the call :3
i think they will, we just play the wait game
@@maschenny28 yoi bro, btw gatau kenapa seneng gitu liat orang reaction pdhl g trlalu bsa bhsa inggris wkwk
Soon! 😊
Thanks again guys, lovin it
I literally get so excited when u guys post league videos. I love seeing your reactions! Lol
Thanks so much! Plenty more to come
You felt bad for watching "Warriors" already? 😅 Then I recommend watching "The Call" at the end. The animations are 🔥🔥
We cant wait 😍
Love y’all’s reactions as always, and I got a couple things to say
1) the big statue man at the end of warriors is called galio, he’s a living statue that protects demacia when he’s needed
2) the guy that made the light sword is sylas, who is a mage that can steal other peoples magic and is trying to overthrow demacia.
3) the girl that shot the light on the sky is lux, garens sister and a mage
4) the explorer stealing the thing from the cave was stealing an item from the game, the tear of the goddess, and he awakened the void, which was defeated by Kai’sa, a corrupted girl that fights off the void
Oh yeah and the dude cait and vi are fighting is urgot (you pronounce the t), who has a cult of people that believe inflicting pain on themselves makes them stronger, so he’s cut off almost all of his limbs and replaced them with lots of shotguns
Thanks! 😊
I know I’ve watched this reaction of yours before, it’s just, I can’t get enough of your reactions. Your enthusiasm is so contagious! This is probably my 5th rewatch of this video? I repeat watch most of your videos though.
At last, reaction that I've been waiting for😆
Urgot (no silent t)
sylas is the guy leading a msgic revolution in demacia (kingdom of garen (big soldier dude) and lux (blond magic girl)
kai'sa (purple void girl), ezreal blond young adult.
Thanks!
I cannot wait for their minds to be blown on the coming animations haha
Waiting every week for these reactions. 👌🏻 Subbed.
The cinematic and the actual music for “You really got me” I just love it all
I like the idea of a 2nd watch. The idea of watching these reacts is to see how you identify the caracters, what you thing about them. Sometimes, that's really hard to catch in a single shot.
We’ll do it more! Thanks for the feedback 😊
Your reactions are so enthusiastic, love it x'D the purple girl is Kai'sa from KDA btw, only that is her true form in-game. Odyssey Jinx is a skin (every character you see different is a skin, like KDA) and also an alternative universe, so... yeah Jinx doesn't have friends really. Just a quick curiosity fact, since you love Arcane's trio: these are some quotes from Caitlyn to Jinx in-game: "Perhaps Piltover can rest easy without you, Jinx. But Vi..." (we can see how much Caitlyn cares about Vi, so cute) and "Is there a point to this madness, Jinx, or is it just a channel for your pain?" :)
It'll be interesting to see if we get to see more ""happy"" (double quotation marks, lol) Jinx in season 2. We saw some glimpses of her in season 1 (when Silco was yelling at her for killing the enforcers, messing with 'Chuck'). Since she's 'free' now I'd like to see that reflect in her behavior more. Publicly happy psycho, privately still as tormented as ever.
I was about to tell them about the Kai'sa and K/DA skin but you got my back here :D
@@Zealot2GameParkCZ always on top of the situation 😂
Thanks so much! Super helpful 😊
You guys are too awesome ! Love your videos. You can tell your really enjoying content
Yeah we love it! Glad its translating to you guys too 😊
LMAO I just found you guys but I loveeeee the reaction; so genuineeeee.
These skins cinematics have their own lore as well, it's like Runeterra's alternate dimensions.
Urgot is one of the Chem-Barons and replaced most of his body with augmentations. The Chem Barons all use Chem tech mixed with either augmentations or their poison.
This is the one of the best reaction I ever watch please keep goin💙
you guys rock it is so entertaining seeing peope who dont play the game but are invested in the lore and cinematics ;)
Really love how you both are getting engaged with Runeterra's lore. I believe Necrit has videos about breaking down the cinematics with lore info and easter eggs.
I miss Odyssey. There's nothing I want more than this skin line getting its own mini series. Malphite just grunts. Yasuo barely speaks. Sona is mute. Our loud girlie Jinx talks more than enough for the rest of the crew lmao.
This was honestly one of the best events along with Burning Tides.
That was an awesome event! I loved the MMO boss feel of Kayn
i must say, i really like that you actually watch and try to understand what you see. This is very refreshin to see in the reaction scene. Keep it up 👍
Wow thanks so much!
You guys reactions & chemistry are the best ngl, i'm better as a human being just by witnessing that.
Oh wow how nice! Thank you ❤️❤️
Whoa! I waited for this desperately. And I got the reaction I hoped for. 😍
Your guessings may lead to a wrong direction sometimes but it just shows how involved you are. Your in League for about 2 months now, right? Most of us are in for several years. You are doing great. Love it! ♥️
These cinematics were the cause for us league nerds to BEG Riot to do a show or movie for years while they were already secretly working on Arcane . You will see so many champions you need to know more about! 😉
we cant wait 😍
"I guarantee you that will probably be the best cinematic that we watch."
- League players every year the new cinematic gets released
No but honestly this is top 3 with Awaken and The Call for most people.
Kin of the stained blade is my absolute favourite tbh
you are fun to watch 🤣🤣🤣
can't wait for another league related reactions 😊😊😊
I love how you guys treat Jinx like a real person and that you're actually seeing her in a better head space. If you want a little fun coping info (though it's just a fan art I saw online) there's a pic of Vi, Caitlyn, Jinx and Silco like they were taking a break on the set of that last episode in Arcane at the dinner table. It's fun to think that they were just acting in Arcane and are actually all close friends behind the scene like real artors. Silco was even having a cup of coffee!
Bahahaha that sounds amazing! 😂
I’m really hoping you’ll react to Kin of the stained blade! It’s super good and features the swordfighter you’ve been seeing in this video.
"I guarantee you, this is gonna be the best cinematic we watch" to that i say... Yes but No.
There's "the climb" with all the Senna/Ruination storyline.
There's "Awaken"
There's "Kin of the stained blade"
Then, if you thought this looked unbelievable (which, it 100% does), wait till you watch "the call" which looks basically more real than real life itself, we as real human beings living real life, don't have that same level of graphics, WE are the simulation compared to "the call"😂😍
the pause and 'enough said' got me lol
Ey you guys made it to the 10k milestone congratulations. welp I was here since 3k, can't wait for you guys to make it at the 50k milestone. Ill still be here.
Aww thanks so much. Means a lot ❤️
You guys seem so sweet, I love your reactions.
Thanks so much 😊❤️
sorry about saying that but jinx is one of the loneliest champions in the game and the friends that she has are just just the guns and the bullets that she created
And she's not even the best lonely character in the game. Amumu takes that title!
😔
24:00 yes I agree I’ve been a jinx main since 7 years now after I watched the “Get Jinxed” music video and I just have loved her every since.
2:38 Big dude in the armour with the large sword is Garen Crownguard, he is a Demacian. He's head of the Dauntless Vanguard, Demacia's elite warrior company that goes out to face threats before they can really threaten Demacia directly.
3:05 Dude in the white cloak with the chains on his arms is Sylas of Dregbourne, he is also a Demacian. He was born with magical ability to detect magic in others and since magic is poorly regarded in Demacia, he was pressured to turn himself into the Mageseekers, which he did. They realized how useful that power was though, and they instead decided to recruit him to use his power to detect other mages to instead root out magic-capable people in Demacia and imprison them, as magic is considered 'an affliction' in Demacia and as I'd mentioned before in another video, Demacia will lock up their own citizens if they're found to have magic. During one inquisition to find a mage, the 'mage' turned out to be a young girl and Sylas was having some doubts about how free he'd be able to live with all the arrests he'd been part of, he attempted to defend/protect the girl but in doing so brushed against her and realized the true nature of his magical power; he could absorb other mage's power temporarily. He couldn't control the magic he accidentally absorbed from the girl and the resulting outpouring of lightning magic killed the child and two other Mageseekers, making him a dangerous criminal in Demacia. He was captured and imprisoned in a cell, bound with petricite chains to contain his magical power, until the eventual day where he was accidentally set free by Luxanna Crownguard, Garen's younger sister.
3:46 That's Kai'sa, she's one of the girls from K/DA, the one with the little floaty crystal-bits over her shoulders. This is her default/basic skin, her outfit is a sort of symbiotic creature from The Void, which is a sort of weird alien dimension that exists parallel to Runeterra. She was lost to the Void as a child and managed to survive by bonding with this life form that became the suit. I think she's supposed to be the lost daughter of another League champion, Kassadin, but I've not checked that lore connection in a while and he doesn't really appear in a lot of other media so that connection won't mean a whole lot to you.
3:55 Even back then Caitlyn was still whiffing critical shots by aiming for the shoulder instead of the head. God damn it Cait you have a passive called Headshot but you keep plinking their shoulder for crying out loud. First Sevika, now this nameless goon.
4:04 Not really, chemtech rebreathers like that are kind of a common feature on a lot of generic Zaunite punks, I think the dude with the big gun in the Warwick video had one too. Urgot is actually a Noxian that was imprisoned in Zaun by Chem-Barons after being sent there by Swain as a distraction so Swain could usurp power. The dude Ekko fought was a nobody.
4:26 Should also mention, this character is Ezreal. He's also from Piltover as I mentioned in a previous video, his diving into this ruin to find a magical artifact would make him a good character for a separate series where we just follow him around the rest of Runeterra seeing weird locations rather than any one set city, since we could get to explore a lot of fringe and hidden areas of the world and cross a lot of other characters, like Kai'sa here, since she's turning up to fight the Voidlings that came rushing out of the depths when Ezreal took that magical Tear of the Goddess.
4:36 Urgot can be pretty strong in the right hands, but he's a bit challenging to play. The chain-drill thing there is his ultimate, if he hits a champion with it and they're below a certain threshold of health, he can pull them into the grinder and instantly kill them. The only thing that can stop the guaranteed kill is if someone else kills Urgot before his target is pulled in, as the target is rendered helpless as they're dragged towards him.
5:01 That's Luxanna Crownguard, Lux for short, she's Garen's sister and another champion in the MOBA. One of my favourites as well, though she doesn't demonstrate a whole lot in most of the videos she appears in. Sylas taught her somewhat how to control and wield her magical power during the times they met while he was imprisoned, so while she's somewhat indebted to him for that, ultimately he was more or less just biding his time to be able to get an opportunity to escape. Their segment of this cinematic is revolving around a Winter's Claw assault Sylas launches against a northern fortress of Demacia as retaliation for all the injustices Demacia inflicts on it's population. Despite coming across as a villain, Sylas is really trying to fight for the freedom of magically gifted citizens of Demacia to live without persecution, which makes the entire situation really fucked up when you look over the rest of the lore and realize for as bright and shiny Demacia is made to look it's really a pretty dire near-fascist regime.
5:28 "What is that?"
That giant statue is Galio, the Petricite Colossus. He's a giant statue that was constructed of the anti-magic stone that Demacia is popular for and is utilized as a weapon against mages as he is normally immobile and inert until he's awakened by a large amount of magical power. He's Demacia's kind of trump card against magic users and I believe he's actually developed a sort of bond with Lux on account of her having enough latent magical power emanating from her that she alone can awaken him, so her skyward beam of light from the previous scene was probably her literally calling to awaken Galio to come to her aid. He's actually a bit of a tragic character because Galio is a really friendly personality, but he's dormant for decades at a time until powerful magic awakens him, and it's almost invariably some mage enemy of Demacia that he's tasked to go and fight. Once he destroys the mage(s), he falls dormant again as he can no longer be sustained without the magic calling him to action, and in the intermediary time between awakenings everyone he knew from the previous time he awoke has either aged considerably or passed away. Lux is the only one he's been able to see and meet repeatedly, as her own magical power is great enough to awaken him with her presence, and so he is actually very protective of her being the only human mage friend he's ever made.
5:34 Lux probably incinerated like 20 dudes in that moment the title cut in.
6:52 I'm pretty sure it is pronounced Er-Got but I can understand reading it Er-Go. A lot of the names are kind of weird, the only way to be sure is to hear how Riot staff pronounce the names, or if they're ever said in game by a character.
7:38 Yeah, Garen in the Legends of Runeterra video is tiny, tiny boy by comparison. In every other thing he's appeared in, he's always had a much larger figure, it was a bit of a meme when the Legends of Runeterra came out that it was Baby Garen before he started his protein shakes daily.
7:56 As I mentioned before, Sylas' magical power is to absorb magic and use it himself. As well, the chains/manacles on his hands are also made of petricite, the same material Galio is made of, and it's property is also to absorb magical energy. If you look real close in the part of the scene when Garen rushes Sylas and gets blocked by the manacles, you can see some wisps of energy coming off Garen's sword and flowing into Sylas' manacles. The sword itself has some magical properties, and Sylas was able to tap into that to recreate it in an attempt to basically kill Garen with his own weapon, as it's "supposedly" blessed to be able to fight magic, it would be a terribly irony to be killed by the magic of his own weapon in a fight against mages.
9:28 Yeah, the northern fortress in the Warriors segment is bordering the Freljord. The main body of the enemy forces attacking with Sylas are the Winter's Claw, one of the pseudo-barbarian, viking-esque tribes of Freljordians that live in the land. They're a warlike raider clan for the most part. I also want to mention that Braum is Freljordian, though he doesn't swear alleigance to any one clan, he views all as brothers and sisters though he does hope that they can all unite into one clan one day.
10:08 That stone that Ezreal took is the Tear of the Goddess. It's an item in League of Legends, it provides a gradually increasing bonus to mana as well as a few other effects, incidentally it's also a fairly important item to Ezreal's typical item builds so it's also a cheeky reference for him to be grabbing it in the first place. The purple light and all the little creatures are kind of a consistent theme to keep in mind going forward with League lore, as the colour purple, purple creatures and the like are typically associated with The Void, that parallel alien dimension I mentioned. There's all kinds of weird monsters and horrors that come from the void and they almost all have a typical naming pattern including an apostrophe: Vel'koz, Kha'zix, Rek'sai, Cho'gath, Kog'Maw and even Kai'Sa, the dark haired woman in purple that later appears.
10:58 :^)
11:23 Vi and Caitlyn as seen here would probably be another 3-5 years from the point they were at in Arcane, maybe. Vi and Caitlyn after the time skip in episode 4 are probably somewhere around early 20s, Jinx would be about 17-18. By the 'current day' of Runeterra, Jinx is 22 while Vi and Caitlyn are 24~27 years old, but by the the frame the game characters are directly concerned, Vi is definitely an Enforcer in Piltover and helps keep the peace even though she's still as much of a punk.
11:45 "I think you paused it in the perfect spot."
The League of Legends fandom wiki does use that exact frame as the character banner header for Vi's page for a reason.
12:12 Kai'sa actually hunts the Voidborn, as she's spent many years since her childhood surviving in the Void by learning to fight back against the creatures, and now that she's managed to return to Runeterra properly, she uses what she knows about the Voidborn to kill them in order to prevent what she feels is an otherwise inevitability of the Void overrunning Runeterra.
14:34 The soldiers were already in the fortress, but Galio has long been a figure of slight reverence in Demacia for his role as a protector, not quite worshipped as a god or anything but a lot of Demacian citizens go out to the plinth/plaza where Galio normally stands when he's not activated to pay respects and honour. It's where Galio became aware of Lux's magical power even from her being a toddler, and his presence as a symbol of Demacia's strength and protection serves as a rally for the soldiery of the nation to unite, because they know that Galio comes to life to fight their greatest enemies and save the people. All those soldiers are 100% prepared to lay down their lives at that moment.
15:01 Lux is a strongly aspected Light mage, though she does have a particular legendary skin that changes form, and one of them is a kind of spritely, fairy-like nature aligned one. There's even a video specifically for that skin, Elementalist Lux. You'll probably come across it eventually. It's just okay in my opinion, not really any lore than just a hype piece for a decorative skin to let everyone know you paid $30 to suck ass and get destroyed. :')
15:16 Fuck, I wrote a novel. Anyway;
Thicksword McLargearmour: Garen Crownguard, head of the Dauntless Vanguard of Demacia. Lux's brother, dutifully keeping the secret that he knows his sister is a mage despite the fact he should, by all law, turn her in.
Chaindaddy O'Swagger: Sylas, a mage-hunter-turned-criminal by accident for trying to stand up for people's rights. Imprisoned for something he couldn't help and for accidentally damaging the status quo, he met and manipulated Lux into helping him get free of incarceration so that he could attempt to reverse Demacia's treatment of mage kind through violent insurrection.
Blondy Laser: Luxanna (Lux) Crownguard, a noble daughter of Demacia, terrified of being exiled or executed for having magic, she's both accidentally endeared herself to the living monument of Demacia's defense, Galio, and the greatest enemy of the current regime, Sylas. She was actually being lead into marrying the crown prince of Demacia as part of a familial ploy to protect her against threat of being accosted for being a mage, as no one would dare make a move to imprison the Queen of Demacia. The status of that plan is unknown but assumed null.
Prettyboy Rocksnatcher: Ezreal, a son of Piltover, born to two reknowned archaeologists. With a magical gauntlet and unspecified magic powers of his own, he scours the old ruins of ancient history to find clues as to what happened to his parents, who he refuses to accept could have died afield. He actually has an unrequited love for Lux, while she doesn't even really know he exists.
Purple Bodysuit: Kai'sa, a Shuriman girl who was lost to the void following an attack when an intended sacrifice to appease the Void was lost due to mischief. Through sheer determination she managed to survive in a hostile, alien dimension and bonded with a symbiotic carapace to hunt the Void monsters with their own strengths.
Baldy Spidertank: Urgot, Noxian Headman sent to Zaun on a false flag play and arrested. He got himself grafted with chemtech augmentations to replace 'weak' parts of himself and then lead an insurrection in the prison to break out and terrorize Zaun and Piltover. He's sparked a bit of an anarchist collective to follow him, but was imprisoned again by Vi and Caitlyn. The clip here in Warriors is probably a cell of his followers trying to break him out of prison again.
15:36 All incidental events. Garen/Sylas/Lux are all on the Demacian/Freljord border on the north of Demacia, dealing with Sylas leading a band of Winter's Claw to attack them. Ezreal/Kai'sa is somewhere in Shurima, which is the southern continent of Runeterra. Urgot/Caitlyn/Vi are somewhere in Zaun. They're not directly connected, just flash for a fancy video for the most part, but the Demacian part of the events has some canon story basis, so it's also related to some metastory plot that'd been occuring.
19:23 The Odyssey skin line is a Guardians of the Galaxy-ish/sci-fi-ish skin line that coincided with a kind of experimental player-team-vs-environment event update that included some interesting sort of team-co-op gameplay in unique situations and this trailer/teaser was kind of the set-up and lead-in for it's initial launch. An interesting note for the skins with themes, they are considered to be entire alternate universes and while the characters might be the same in broad strokes, their situations and connections can be wildly different. Jinx seems happy with the Morning Star crew because she might legitimately be, she doesn't have the same character trajectory and is functionally a different person. The entire crew are a bunch of characters with no real connection; Malphite is some weird extra-dimensional rock monster whose present lore I forget since he's basically ignored; Yasuo is a popular character for his samurai aesthetic and gets a LOT of skins; the girl at the end in the hood is Sona Buvelle, a mute Demacian woman with a magical instrument. Not pictured is Ziggs, who is the only character that Jinx would normally actually know. Ziggs and Jinx develop a bit of a history in proper Runeterra because they both are *very* fond of explosions, but Ziggs calls an end to their comraderie when she wants to kill people with her explosions.
21:50 Yeah. It's just a promotion for Wild Rift, the mobile edition of League of Legends.
22:10 The Yordle there, Teemo, has a blink-and-you'll-miss-it cameo in Arcane. He's on one page of the children's book one of Silco's goons are reading in the scene where Silco and his thugs are in Ren's room, Marcus' daughter, to intimidate him. The big robot is Blitzcrank, he was created in Zaun and I'm not going to talk much about him because there's a non-zero chance to see his origin story in Arcane season 2. He spends a lot of time wandering around Zaun trying to help people but he also spends a lot of time alone and pondering the nature of life.
22:14 That rock dude is what Malphite actually looks like normally, quite a difference from his Odyssey skin. Braum is there with Ahri, Zed on the left appearing from shadows. Particular note is Camille on the right, in the front. She's from Piltover, and we could possibly see her in Arcane as well. Her family are the ones that were likely providing the hex crystals Jayce was experimenting on to begin with.
23:41 Correct, default Ahri has black hair.
24:11 "Tell me a better character."
Uh... shit. I dunno, that's a big ask. Jinx is always a lot of fun for her chaotic personality and the kind of hijinx she can get up to, but it depends a lot on your tastes as well. I personally really like the kind of dynamic that Twisted Fate and Graves have going as semi-bumbling criminals travelling the world looking for big scores
27:25 She doesn't wear it and I can't check right now because I don't have an active Netflix account right now, but I'm pretty sure I remember a scene where Caitlyn is sitting around at home idly playing with a hat. It might not be spot-on for her signature top-hat but it's kind of similar from memory. It is a little more played at with her basic uniform cap than a full on top-hat though, so she does still have fancy headwear for at least the part of the series she actually wears it. It's kind of weird to think back and realize that most of Arcane she's actually not got a hat on. That's the real crazy shit.
27:35 That'll likely come to happen in the future. We saw Jayce fashion the Mercury Cannon/Hammer and use it, to some unfortunate results, but if he follows a similar sort of trajectory in Arcane as his path takes in Runeterra proper then he'll definitely take up as a defender of the city and fight to protect his hometown, which will undoubtably cross paths with Cait, who is on the path to become the new Sheriff.
28:41 A fair amount of the videos are kind of promotional and lore. A lot of the Worlds videos involve pro players using champion imagery so it can end up being confusing to see normal looking dudes demonstrating weird powers and shit, they lose a lot of impact without the context of who the players are, the characters they play regularly/played in competition and a bunch of other details, so while they can be cool to watch for the experience they're kind of eh for 'lore' since they're really just hype pieces for the yearly tournaments. That said though, the Worlds opening ceremonies and their performances can be some real bangers, especially the year they opened with K/DA's real life singers performing on stage with Augmented Reality projected digital overlays of the K/DA champion skin artists performing in tandem. That was pretty fucking cool.
As always, I'll be watching your adventures in this learning endeavour with great interest. As someone that's been really into the League of Legends lore in all it's iterations over the past 11 years, I don't need much more of an excuse to mercilessly loredump nerd shit at a couple of confused beginners because it helps me feel like I didn't waste 11 years of my life reading shit that doesn't matter. :) _Someone hold me my life is meaningless._
WOW! Thanks for taking the time to write all this out….
24:10 I'm gonna pitch you something here. A lot of the community will agree with me while some wont. Also I am a bit biased.
The only character I genuinely like more than Jinx is Jhin. He appears in the Awaken cinematic. From a game design standpoint and lorewise there is a general agreement among players that Jhin is the best crafted character in the league universe. Obviously debatable ofc.
I believe he might appear in season 2 of Arcane, as he has been known to conduct business for a wealthy Piltoverian family. Some fan theories suggest that Jhin is in fact Silco, but thats highly unlikely unfortunately.
I doubt he will appear any time soon. First of all because he does not fit into the state of lore that Arcane is currently in. Secondly because they have a lot better rivals for Caitlyn and Vi in store now with Sevikca, Camille, Warwick and Urgot as well as Noxus. And third because he is way too brutal for the show.
@@tilltronje1623 Wouldn't Jhin be the perfect foil for Caitlyn's detective arc? If Vi is going after Jinx without Caitlyn as the trailer implies, then Caitlyn's gotta have her own situation. Maybe alongside Jayce to develop their sibling-like relationship more? I guess it depends on how much Noxus we're going to see. If we actually end up in Noxus then they won't have time for that (unless they increase the episode length), but if Noxus is just going to be a presence in Piltover then it's possible we'll see Jhin.
Also I have a feeling the show isn't going to shy away from brutal. They can do things "tastefully" while still getting the message across, not to mention I wouldn't be surprised if they escalated the violence a bit for the next season.
@@kenjutsukata1o1 If the show continues after season 2, we might see him. But from a film-making standpoint, having a major character like Jhin just show up out of nowhere to be a villain for season 2 wouldn't work. They've already set up a lot of potential villains. Not only will Jinx be a continuing antagonistic force, they've also set up Warwick, Sevika, Darius/Swain, Mel's mom, Renni (chem baroness who lost her son; she actually has a pretty significant story in the lore), and potentially Renata Glasc, the newest actual game character who happens to be a chem baroness as well.
To choose a villain outside of that massive pool of already-established characters would be a bad move, I think. Not to say I wouldn't want to see Jhin eventually. It just doesn't make sense yet.
Jhin being Silco was always quite dumb because, ya know, Jhin is Ionian, and more than that, he looks like a regular dude under the mask. No scars or anything, he is painfully bland and he hates it. We didn't even have to watch the show to dismiss that idea.
@@Goomsies You're not wrong, as much as I wish you were :-p
5:44 Warriors is not the best cinematic by far imo, not saying it's bad by any means, it's great. But there are some way more impressive ones, both technically and artistically. like Kin of the Stained Blade or Awaken, or "Breathe" (tho that one is for the card game) just to name a few
They havent gotten to those yet so its a good thing that they are surprised by awakens quality because it will not go down watching others
I can't explain how much I love you guys
Oh wow katie! Thanks! We love you too ❤️❤️
for the animation quality, "The Call" and "Light and Shadows" are by far the 2 best ones. 2 different styles, but both so beautiful
Love your reactions. Subscribed, notification on.
loving your reactions. after finishing the cinematics you should take a look at all the champions and their skins, you'll probably find some new favorites.
I love how I'm able to learn about this world with you guys hahaha thank you for sharing and leting me be a part of it too!
Oh wow thats great!
gosh I'm so hyped when u get hyped watching the chars from arcane (cait, vi etc) goosebumps :D !!
I know I'm late but that first video, Warriors, makes me so emotional, because they all end up coming together, even as everything looks impossible with their relative situations. It's beautiful, especially Lux, the mage with the staff, she calls on Galio, the Gargoyle to help defend against Sylas, a mage she trusted and who taught her almost everything she knows about magic.
One of the best reaction channel on youtube.
Love your videos from the Philippines ❤️
❤️
One cool little Easter Egg for long time League players in the Wild Rift video is that Lux has an ultimate skin that came out quite a few years ago. The video promo for the skin features her fighting Malphite the giant mountain of a champion (he is also one of Jinx's crew members in the Odyssey video). Before Jinx comes to grab her when Lux is studying you see her sneak a peak of a drawing of her fighting Malphite which is a cute little callback to that promo video. Then when Jinx brings her to Wild Rift and she sees Malphite in the distance she perks up because she'll get to fight him again.
Its so cool seeing people being introduced to the world of runeterra even if they dont play league the story and the world are so amazing and there are so many amazing characters
The giant white statue is Galio, he is made of a stone that absorbs magic when he absorbs enough he "wakes up". the blonde girl is lux, she is a mage so powerful that she alone is able wake him up.
Yo this stuff is just making me more excited for Season 2!❤❤
I like you guys you’re just chill people
Aww thanks! 😊
Jinx on release: some crazy Harley Quinn haha boom explosion girl.
Jinx now: one of the most flushed out and beloved character in the LoL universe.
Can't wait to see the call and Breathe cinematics reaction
So a quick breakdown of warriors 3 little stories.
Cait and vi are taking on urgot who basically leads a cult like gang of people obsessed with augmenting their bodies with chemtech or hextech. He's originally from noxus but was imprisoned in piltover and wants to take over zaun.
In Demacia there's a civil war going on between demacia and it's mages who are generally locked up or persecuted because magic is scary. Garen is fighting with Sylas, the lead mage revolutionary, the guy with the chains.
Lux is the girl in white, she's garens sister and they're nobles. But she's also secretly a mage. At the end of the video she 'comes out' and reveals her magic to make a signal for Galio, who's a giant golem made out of demacia's magic absorbing stone (but also is kinda friends with lux). He can only come alive when there's magic around. Mostly it's a big moment for lux where she's hoping demacia will still accept her.
Lastly there's the story of ezreal (blond guy) who's in an ancient tomb or vault. He's an untrained mage from piltover and an archeologist/adventurer. His glove is an ancient weapon from shurima for mages that makes it easier for him to use magic. As he's trying to do some grave robbing, a bunch of void creatures show up, which are deadly monsters from below. Kaisa shows up to help him, she's always looking to try to stop the spread of the void creatures. She's bonded to a symbiotic void creature herself, after she got lost in a void cavern at a young age.
In warriors, the girl with the black hair throwing explosive, her name is Kai'Sa and She is also a member of KDA group.
Glad you guys rewatched it, definitely too much to take in in 1 viewing.
💯
You guys are the best reactors for league of legends content💯💯
Thanks so much! 😊
@@CarlieAndAnge 😊💯
3:15 This moment is priceless: Your reactions to just seeing Kaytlin and Vi say all about how good Arcane was.
It blows my mind thinking that there are probably (i don't really know) dozens of cool stories in this league of legends universe.
We cant wait for more…!
You two are really so good, I love a lot watching your reactions videos and it is awesome watching this one after I won two ranked matchs with my love Jayce
Thanks so much! 😊❤️
The guy with chains is called Sylas and he was chained up by the demacians for being a mage and having magic abilities. He is able to steal ults in the game (the big moves they can do) and In Warriors he stole Garens ult which was the sword that appeared
There's a cinematic of that samurai dude you saw, is a very lore friendly short movie called "Kin of the stained blade"
Nice! The Climb is another cinematic with a character from Arcane. Ekko. That is actually one of the most visually stunning cinematics. Also you should watch, Senna's Shadows Embrace cinematic and The ruination Cinematic. All of those are amazing. Probably should watch them in that order too!
The warriors cinematic always always gives me goosebumps. Just ... chef's kiss
