[@gorrarz5760]

there is a theory about singed and orianna. so in the original story the father of orianna was a toy maker. it got rewritten to prosthetics engineer. both things are hinted in the show. singed admires the toy boat that viktor created and singed probably designed the augmented arm of sevika. and furthermore and thats where it gets a bit creepy, orianna is sometimes just called ori, and that is an anagram for rio. and rio is the "a rare mutation" singed "cultivated" that "must survive". so maybe his daughter orianna got sick and he had to preserve her body, maybe even turned her into rio and hopes to get her back in the future.

[@sasukebyak]

You guys should watch "Twist of fate", Climb, A new Dawn.

[@jackspratt7264]

The best thing about Arcane was going in and knowing NOTHING about it. Everything was new and a surprise. So why would you spoil some of the biggest character reveals for yourselves 3 years out from the sequel? Honestly, whether you say you don't care or it doesn't matter... it's just dumb.

[@Jess-Wong]

the ANNIE is really really great. a "must check it out" kinda cinematic

[@ughgowonsscalpandcrunchyvo4926]

I love how Arcane fans are immediately starved for more that they just go ahead and binge watch League of Legends animation videos 😭😂

[@notsoptimistic]

why do I see you everywhere

[@rickymoranjr9609]

@ughgowonsscalpandcrunchyvo4926 I'm one of those fans

[@magnusscheck4425]

There's a quote Warwick says when he meets Jinx in game: "You were there... let me forget" Riot knows what is doing.

[@psychoboyjack285]

One little detail: The last few remakes they did on characters all have Arcane into consideration (Interactions of Swain, Fiddlesticks and Warwick). So there's hope that Swain appears on season 2, taking into consideration that Noxus is now in play.

[@starknight2262]

Yeah but arcane is not in the same canon universe as the the league of legends game lore. It's two separate universes. If you actually read the actual lore of Leauge of Legends you would see it's not the same as arcane. Their are major differences between the two. For example in the lore jace and Caitlyn never actually knew each other like they do in Arcane. Read Jace's lore and Victor's lore and as well as Ekko's lore from the game and you will see some huge differences from the arcane series.

[@tr9o9r9r]

@@starknight2262 Meh, arcane is 110% canon. It's just have has it's own vison, and all league cinematic have own perspective on story if you don't see. League lore is very fluid and changes very often and that's it, don't confuse people.

[@wabbajack8283]

@@starknight2262 Arcane is and will be the canon source for now on, everything in the previous lore will be or is in the process of being retconned for the Arcane cinematic universe.

[@TheArrowedKnee]

@@tr9o9r9r AFAIK Arcane is kinda like what the MCU is to Marvel Comics. It's heavily tied to it, but it's it's own thing in regards to canon.

[@Bash434]

there's so many more cinematics you guys should see, can't wait for the next ones :D

[@clep337]

The Curse of the Sad Mummy is my favorite cinematic, go check it out! The director of that music video became the director of the Arcane story!

[@ninjafohhiya]

Vander was referred to in episode 1 as "The Hound of the Underground." As well as being called a "lapdog." Plus a bunch of other teases early on. Some very good teases.

[@TomEllisLovesU]

the moment I heard "Hound" I already felt it coming. I knew the differences in lore (although small) but they most certainly will adapt it

[@kamenballer]

lol in my case. I didn't pay attention to the small details when I started Arcane since I know some of the Characters. My misfire in the details was I thought Vander will be Dr. Mundo in the future stories, I don't know why I think of that I just did after he inject himself with shimmer in the end then my second misfire was I thought Silco = Swain, again idk why I think that I just randomly did without thinking it through. lol

[@TomEllisLovesU]

@@kamenballer the Silco Swain sure was a trip lol

[@beagle6876]

When Silco tells Vander in Episode 3, "I'll show you what you really are-" there's a snippet in the music from Warwicks theme.

[@Nata-ch2bk]

36:10 -> At the moment we don't know yet what's canon and what's not, the development of the universe is still new. For now I think they stated that Arcane is its own thing but I'm sure down the line they will retcon the other sources to fit Arcane's story and make Arcane canon. There are a good number of things in Arcane that are different from the website lore written stories and biographies. For example Jayce's and Viktor's storylines are changed a lot for Arcane, their personalities as well. That's because a lot of the stuff in the lore is hard to use to fit in a story like Arcane where multiple character storylines need to fuse with one another. In the website they are more independant stories.

[@Nyx__]

Yeah for now we just gotta assume that Arcane is it's own thing and that it will take some parts of previously established lore, but not everything.

[@RenegadeSamurai]

I think it is different but also it is not, since they changed a few lore things in LoL too that seem to fit the Narrative of Arcane. I guess you could see it is "in a slight alternate reality" thing

[@UncleForHire]

Why do people keep up voting this, each thing clearly had their own lore, lol, the card game, and arcane all have different lores so each can be considered a different cannon

[@meandhomelandersgiganticballs_]

just one little fun fact: One of Warwick's voicelines when he meets Vi in game is "Who taught you how to punch?"

[@mhel8757]

speacially the line... " ive seen that fear in your face before" voice line of warwick to vi.. and in episode 3 where vander saw vi fear in his eye when vander inject shimmer

[@turtletime2899]

"The fear in your eyes... I've seen it before." To Vi "You were there." To Jinx

[@wabbajack8283]

@The_Terror that just means that he still has a hint of his previous memories as is speaking in a third person view.

[@CainWhitefang]

to be honest it feels more like he's taunting her

[@rickymoranjr9609]

@meandhomelandersgiganticballs_ that might be what he'll say to Vi in season 2

[@Spaghetty]

Yoooo!!! i was waiting for this when you guys mentioned going deeper into league cinematics. Its great that its 1hr long too lmao!!

[@Domura]

Some of Vander's grunts and growls when he's taken the shimmer are almost exactly Warwick's snarls in the game, and a major point of Warwick's history is that the transformation that lead to him becoming Warwick didn't fully take until he died. Given that they've released a teaser announcing that a Season 2 in production and it ends with the musical sting loop that represents Warwick's Blood Hunt ability from the game, it's certain that he's going to be a factor of the next season. There was a lot of implications and supposition from the lore elements in the game that all the characters from Piltover and Zaun had some kind of large web of connections between them, in between cinematics, story pieces, bits and pieces of lore and character interactions, but it wasn't ever really spelled out objectively until now. Arcane is basically one massive confirmation sequence of all the lore people had been assuming for a few years now. Also, that one video with the 'easter egg' about cupcakes and Caitlyn being called cupcake and being 'similar' to the Bittersweet Lulu skin cupcakes, I'd have basically instantly dismissed that entire video on the grounds the dude making it is an idiot. Caitlyn in game has an ability, Yordle Snap Trap, that places a bear trap with those exact same kind of cupcakes on the pressure plate. This is where the 'cupcake' appellation comes from but this brainlet clickfarmer video just wants pretend internet points as fast as possible, so he does a surface level scrape 'secrets' video that gets a lot of details wrong. 'The Lanes' could be a cheeky reference to the lanes of the map, sure, but the Black Lanes is an area of Zaun that fits where they would have been. The krug in the cage is mentioned as being from Legends of Runeterra but they use a screencap of the jungle camp of krugs from the MOBA, which tells me that not only does he not know what he's talking about, but he's also shit at researching the subject. Orianna also isn't Singed's daughter, she was the daughter of an inventor that replaced parts of her body with clockwork prosthetics as parts of her body failed from an illness she contracted trying to help people in Zaun deal with toxic gases. Singed had nothing to do with it, so whatever conclusion this guy jump to is flat out wrong.

[@gerbie42]

Love the reactions, it's always cool to see people enjoy the amazing world of Runeterra! Alright! So, to make the wait a bit shorter, there's plenty of other Runeterra related videos you can watch. - Awaken, another amazing music video with some of the regions. - Kin of the Stained Blade, you like the guy with goku hair? You'll love this vid! - Warwick: The Wrath of Zaun, a short video teaser about Warwick. Since you guys now know it's most likely Vander there's nothing spoiled - Fiddlesticks: Terror in Demacia, If you thought the shadow Isles guy (Thresh) was the stuff of nightmares.. Watch this and find out who really is. - Ekko: Seconds, The teaser video for Ekko's release in the game, this shows a bit more about what Ekko can do, so if you don't want to see that yet, skip this one! - Call of Power | Ryze Cinematic, a video about Ryze, the runemage (who was definitely not in arcane by the way, the timeline wouldn't add up if that was Ryze in his previuos human form) - New Expansion: Empires of the Ascended, A video about the Shurima region in Runeterra, featuring my favourite champion Renekton. - New Expansion & Region: Call of the Mountain, A video about Mount Targon. These are some, there are more.. if you end up watching these I'll make another list, Enjoy!

[@BMHorakhty]

Some explanations, Targon : Mount Targon is the highest mountain of Runeterra , Solari and Lunari are mortals enemies who worship Celestial beings knows as Aspects. Leona (Shield and Sword) is the Aspect host of the Sun ( Solari) and Diana (Crescent Sword) is the Aspect host of the Moon (Lunari) they are former lovers. Blidgewater is the pirates part of Runeterra Ionia is an other region with an Asian theme. Warriors 2020 Cinematic : -Demacia is an anti-mage society and Sylas ( guy with the chains) attack them because He was discriminated due to his powers. The big statue coming from the sky is Galio a statue of Demacia who activate in presence of magic that's why Lux shoot up to the sky so that Galio came to help her and her brother Garen. -The girl who shoot some projectiles in the cave is Kai'sa a girl who got infected by a creature from the Void , to make it simple the Void is another dimension with some horrible creatures who try go get through. The guy with her is Ezreal with an magic gauntlet . Little detail the thing Ezreal stole in this cave is a Tear of Goddess an actual item from the game always build on Ezreal.

[@kairo8155]

If you love the samurai guy, you've got to watch/react to Kin of the Stained Blade. Gorgeous Cannon Cinematic about his past & Present.

[@Serkong]

Awaken

[@katchii93]

i was just like you, i went into arcane blind (i only really knew jinx and i loved her even before the show) but i got into the lore because of the show. im glad you guys are learning more about the world too! so fun to see :D

[@Brby1]

For 17:00, when Silco brings wounded Jinx to Singed, he tells him "I had a daughter once, too.", implying Orianna is already dead.

[@raistormrs]

and that means something in a fantasy world ? 😉

[@lucastavares206]

I'd like to point out that not everything that we know is true in league is technically going to be the same on the show. A lot of these characters are being rewritten constantly by riot, and also their designs. Example: Cait, vi and Ekko look very different from the game, and their lore is also kinda different on the game. Singed is more cruel, Jayce is more of an awful person, etc etc.

[@cheromexa3574]

pinche spoiler que se aventaron XD pero valio la pena porque esta documentado en video. los amo chicos son geniales.

[@supermonkeyyyyyy]

14:02 same reaction, but the reverse when Viktor revealed his name in episode 2. You see, League players have never seen human Viktor or his face before, ever.

[@powthehamster]

If you guys want to see more of jinx, you can watch enemy which is the official music video for the series and Welcome aboard.

[@MACReact]

The Enemy music video was originally in this video. We recorded it and everything. But youtube blocked the video 3 times because of it (it was supposed to be posted yesterday) and we couldn't wait any longer because we have other videos planned so it got cut out. But people seem to really be enjoying these videos so maybe we'll do another one with more cinematics and include the Enemy reaction that we already recorded.

[@powthehamster]

@@MACReact don't be pressured! I was just suggesting. Post when you can and most importantly, when you want.

[@itsheay4795]

@@MACReact You can react on nearly everything about League of Legends. The song enemy gets blocked because the Imagine Dragons own the song. The rest like 'Awaken' or the Annie-Cinematic are free to watch

[@somerandomdude4365]

Being a big watcher of anime the pace at which Arcane episodes were released and the schedule for a new season maybe only being a year away is fucking light speed. Gotta love it

[@TearsOfLa]

At the end of the Get Jinx'd video, she does a little finger gun and shoots the monkey. They pay homage to that with Powder doing a finger gun and shootingan enforcer in the Enemies video for Arcane. Note, Get Jinx'd came out in 2012. So Arcane, and the title track Enemies, both referenced a decade old music video multiple times

[@Nyx__]

14:05 You have just been witness to the GLORIOUS EVOLUTION!

[@LuisSanchez-cm8yi]

I always get chills watching the Warriors cinematic.

[@fabianglathe6131]

9:10 Also, two more things I noticed regarding the „Vander turns into Warwick“ Theory: - in the very first Coversation we see Vander having in the bar, when he defends that hunched merchant guy, the two cutthroats say to him: „So you’re Vander. *Hound of the Underground* . I expected something… younger“. Struck me like „oh damn that’s an obvious nod“ on my first rewatch - second: when Vander drinks the shimmer in episode three and then kills Deckard, the sounds he makes in his shimmer form are VERY VERY reminiscent of Warwick’s various ingame Sounds, especially to those you hear when Warwick chases enemies with his „Blood Hunt“ ability or jumps on them with „Jaws of the Beast“

[@Oscar-mf4od]

Really happy to see you again on league videos, especially now that you bring Arcane back and its hidden details and took a taste on cinematics. Another good quality cinematic like Warriors is Awaken if you ever want to watch it and also Kin of The Stained Blade, my favorite at the moment because it has history and feels almost like a movie. Keep up the good work guys, cheers! 50:41 Since i saw you were a little confused on this part of the video well basically the guy with the chains is named Sylas, in game he can steal other characters abilities when he catches you using his chains 50:14. The sword itself is not an ability but when you playing with Garen (the buffed sword man) you can use your ultimate to summon a big as magic sword on your enemy and instantly execute him when having low life. 50:57 Pretty much what was going to happen if his sister Lux hadn't revealed her powers to call Galio 51:23.

[@CaptWaffles]

I cant wait until you guys see "BREATHE" (“BREATHE” | Official Launch Video - Legends of Runeterra ). That art is so beautiful.

[@cai6084]

sooooo... the second video you guys watched was kinda weird, a lot of things didnt make sense like: - The cupcakes kinda look like lulu's cupcakes, but they were there as an easter egg for caitlyn. That was a kiramman's house after all, so they were a hint that cait was somehow involved with that place. Also not only vi calls her cupcake in LOL, she has A LOT of interactions calling her cupcake in Legends of Runeterra (league's card game). -saying the eggs close to the Krugs were possibly bc of Teemo's skin, but skins have they're own separate universe so it would be weird to merge with the cannon universe. Also krugs are first (and more known) from league and not legends of runeterra...the picture the guy shows is literally in leagues map (i'm being picky, i know). - to be fair that could be ryze, but only if they retcon a lot, and i mean A LOT of his lore, bc ryze is centuries old, by the time he got blue there was already a rune war, so it would be weird to see him normal after centuries. (But that as i said could be retconed and they could make that mage ryze anyway :/ ). - "themed pirate shooting range" THERE IS LITERALLY A REGION CALLED BILGEWATER THAT IS ALL THEMED ABOUT PIRATES, that shooting range is themed around there. The guy in the video made NO research at all....... -again, that shooting range is inspired by Bilgewater, pirates, that statue was a OBVIOUS nod to mermaids. WHY THE FCK would that be cassiopeia? she's not only from noxus, she's also not that famous to the point of being used as a muse for a shooting game.............. Other than that it was ok, but weird. Sorry if i was too picky lol

[@matthewvido3902]

The guy with the big shield named Braum in League of legends at 44:20 is also the voice actor for Vander

[@everforward5561]

Vander isn't quite a werewolf, Singed pumped all sorts of genes and chemicals into him. He's a sort of chimera that just looks primarily like a wolf, with limited human memories.

[@razzledazzle1]

When Warwick gets near vi in the game he asks her “who taught you how to punch?”

[@quellingblade3758]

On the music video in 49:30 the warrior one. It is said that the one that vi and caitlyn fighting is benzo. Vander's homie

[@17thknight]

Love that you guys went so in depth, here!! There were so many details that kept popping up and explained so many game interactions. My favorite is when Swain, a demon possessed tyrant of Noxus, reads Jinx's darkest secret and says "Faces in the flames... It was all her fault..." And only now do we know why. Edit: Madison has it right, Leona and Diana (sun and moon priestesses) were once in love but now opposed and everyone is hoping they get back together.

[@bryceconner5371]

I love that you guys got to see Viktor's League outfit. In episode 2 when Viktor dropped his name, my jaw actually dropped and I screamed because he looked nothing like what he did in game and I thought he was just an important non-game character that was going to be prevelant in the show.

[@kamenballer]

Me too. I always view Viktor as an Old dude/Old Character like Silco but in Arcane he looks young or a little bit older to Jayce.

[@mr_biggsmoke4202]

Oh if yall curious who the giant was at the end his names Galio and the mist knight dude is called Zed now lastly the blade robo chick is Camille

[@TearsOfLa]

ok, so Arcane is its own thing loosely connected to league lore, like how the MCU features characters from the Marvel comics, but doesnt follow the same lore. Arcane is the MCU to League's comics, so the cinematics and stuff are more based on league OG lore because they were made to promote the game, not the TV show. Some things from the Progress day cinematic especially show this. Heimer loves hextech in the cinematic vs heimer hates hextech in Arcane. Ekko has a hoverboard in arcane, but not in the main canon. Jinx is harley quinn in OG, but is just the trauma queen in arcane.

[@Dewrassd]

The arm on viktors back which shoots the yellow lazer is in the show when he demonstrates that and the gloves in front of heimerdinger.

[@feriztiojanuarabdau3339]

Alright, I'll give some context to the cinematic. 1. Thresh Unbound Thresh is the keeper of the Shadow Isle, he's bound to his life to stay forever in the Shadow Isle, and in this cinematic, he's free because what happen in the Ruination Event across Runeterra. 2. Don't mess with Yordle Yordles is magical entities in Runeterra world, well if you watch Arcane you must be know that Yordles is immortal and magic is somewhat a scary things. And in Bilgewater there's bounty for Yordle. And it's not Noxus, it's Bilgewater 3. The Vaulted Road. In this cinematic it's happening in Mount Targon Region. Lunari and Solari is a tribe who're against each other for their beliefs. The couple who run from the chaser basically violated the tribe law because they're in relationships. And about what happened in the end (they become star constellation), it's because both of them became The Aspect or the god, people who can climb to the peak of the Mount Targon will ascended and become The Aspect. 4. Double Double Cross About the guys who hold the card, the name is Tobias Felix, or League player will know him as Twisted Fated, the guy who's using rouble barrel shotgun name is Malcolm Graves and the pirate girl is Sarah Fortune alias Miss Fortune. In Bilgewater there's literally sea monster as big as Kraken and stuff, and some even have a cult about all those beasts. And yes, in Bilgewater it's a wild west. Even the island itself is controlled by the pirates. And here's too not Noxus. 5. Ionia - The Lesson In Ionia Island everything from the land to the plant is a living spirit thing, everything you take from the nature you have to give it back too. Or the land itself will take your spirit/life. 6. The Piltover and Zaun - True Genius I'll skip this, if you watch Arcane then you probably know about all the characters and the region. And yes because of Arcane, it's not canon now. 7. Noxus After Victory. The place in this Cinematic is happenin on Freljord - Noxus border. Noxus is expansive empire in Runeterra some said they're evil some said it's just ideology. And for that expansive idea they gonna use anything for the resource, magic, manipulation, kindness? 8. Shadow isle - Non Escape This cinematic is happening before the Ruination and Thresh still bound to the Shadow Isle. And no, u can't live there, u will be dead even before touch the land 😂. Those 2 people are from Buhru Tribe, the indigenous tribe from Bilgewater. For generation the Buhru Tribe is responsible for renew the magical wards surrounding the Shadow Isle and keep the world from The Harrowing. The Harrowing is the event when The Black Mist from the Shadow Isle is leeching out to outer world. And The Black Mist is like ghost? who can take your soul and bring it back to the Shadow isle. Thresh here is still retaining his "dead face" because he's bound to the isle, in the Thresh Unbound Cinematic he have human face and can shapeshifted to human because he's no longer bound to the isle and can use full of his power. 9. Freljord - The Raid The Freljord is a harsh and unforgiving place-where the people are born warriors, who must persevere against all odds. The tribes of the Freljord are often considered wild, rugged, and “uncivilized”. In this cinematic, it's telling about the raid From the Lissandra Frostguard to the Avarosan Tribe. The shield dude is Braum, he's the most loved champion in the game, even the interaction in the game from Braum is so wholesome. 10. Demacia - Before Glory Umm about Demacia region, i kinda hate Demacian because how racist they are, and i can be writing all days about how much i hate this region. Well there's none to tell about the cinematic too either, it's basically just how kid admiring their hero. 11. Warriors And this too, i think this cinematic need more understanding of the lore about what happening in each region there. Basically it's telling about what happen in current timeline in Demacia, Piltover and Shurima. Arcane timeline is a past timeline. 12. You Really Got Me It's promotion video for the mobile game League of Legend : Wild Rift

[@Chuanese]

There are some insane details that forshadow the season. Such as vi grabing powerder the same way vander grabed silco on the bridge. Elo sitting on the chair in a similar way on 7 jinx does on 9. The rocket launcher with eye scar similar to silco and refer to silco love for shark the 1st ep.

[@Aceries_]

One more hint at Vander being Warwick that I don't see mentioned (sorry if it is). I've seen people pause at the right time on the finale when Jinx is getting confused with Vi reminding her of everyone. She starts seeing the little scratchies around the characters. When she mentions Vander, he has an outline like that of Warwick.

17:32 dunno if you guys will see this, but... Orianna got very bad when she breathed a quimic toxic on the air in zaun, her lungs starting failling and her father made a surgery by himself on his daughter. The lungs now was robot lungs and after some time, Orianna was sick again. Slowly both made a prostheses of every single organ so she could live it. She slowly loses her memory before the transformation and her father also get sick, but then she talked with quimic Baron (someone like Silco) and he gave it her a hextech gem. She made her final decision and the most sad choice: Orianna builds a prosthese of a heart that would hold the hextech gem and replace her own heart. Then she change her father with a sick heart...with the last thing he had from his daughter: her heart was inside him and he got better. After a time, he sold every doll on his store (He was one of best on this thing, If I not wrong *Hope not and if i do be wrong, i'm sowwy*..he sold many kinds of dolls...except for tehe "white and golden doll" (Orianna).

[@arifkarim4184]

it would be really nice if you guys could check out more of LoL cinematics, they're not only just like about the lore of the game and its characters, there's quite a variety to them, like, Riot Games made like music group/band with their characters like KDA, Pentakill (which i think was mention in one of the vid you guys watched) and True Damage (which Ekko is in it n Yasuo, the samurai guy with like the Goku-like hair). Basically there are quite a lot of amazing cinematics that they've done and so instead of you guys freezing yourself till Arcane S2 comes out n leaving us with no contents XD it'd be nice to see you guys react to more of those

Regarding Warwick (Vander after he becomes a werewolf): in the Arcane season 2 announcement video you can hear his theme at the end of the video, so he will most likely be quite an important character in season 2... but damn I can't imagine how the interactions between him and Jinx, Vi and Ekko as well as what his relationship with Singed (his creator) will be... + Viktor's glorious evolution is gonna be dope af. Those two factors alone will make season 2 really hype.

[@Zealot2GameParkCZ]

Hey guys, I'm glad you checked League of Legends cinematics to learn more about the world of Runeterra. I really enjoyed your reactions to Arcane.

[@nixeduswavebreak]

Probably too late to comment, but that last video you guys watched is crazy to me. It came out 8-9 years ago, I watched it, it was just a cool video. That last giant monkey she fought was the same monkey that killed her family, the screws on top of the head show it was the one she broke, fixed, and then used. Her dream was interrupted by the PSTD that is her monkey bomb, adding size to really hit home that is her largest obstacle to overcome, not in reality, but in her head. 55:43 is the time stamp for where the monkey is.

[@ddvjbh]

fun fact at 44:00 Braum (the guy with the shield) and Vander in Arcane has the same voice actor.

[@jinzok]

First channel that actually wants to learn the Lore of Arcane. +1

[@h-lad]

Another fun tidbit about Vander maybe being Warwick, is that in episode one where Vander confronts the people trying to rip off the little professor guy, they say "So you're Vander, the Hound of the Underground" so... that's kinda awesome

[@nafereuskortex9055]

13:59 do not worry too much, he will likely get a redesign, his current lore might be retconned to adapt to Arcane rather than the other way around.

[@DudemitnemHut]

A good sign to look for if you ask yourself when does something takes place is jinx eyes. If she has pink eyes (from the shimmer) it's after she got "transformed" if the eyes are blue it's before.

The characters as they are in Arcane are different (sometimes significantly) than they are in the games. Jinx isn't really a murderer and generally just sticks to vandalism, destroying property or otherwise disrupting the day-to-day operations in Piltover.

Hey, guys. When Warwick meets Vi in game, he says: Who taught you to punch? That's definitely a strong hint towards number 1 Spot

[@Dewrassd]

As someone who played the games for years the whole Vander = Warwick (the werewolf) thing was just a fan theory, LIke R+L=J from game of thrones which people where theorizing about since the first book came out. The game never cemented the notion that Vander was indeed Warwick just eluded to it and kept people guessing. So we had no idea either. Also we were never sure if Jinx and Vi were actual sisters or just "Gang Sisters".

[@twistedtempo200]

They r real sisters

[@Dewrassd]

@@twistedtempo200 That's my point. Is that them being sisters was confirmed with the release of Arcane. Prior to its release, it was never fully confirmed that they were blood related and not just "gang sisters" Understand?

For the Shadow Isles one.. as soon as the get walked about 10 feet away from the wards, Thresh knew he was there. Thresh always knew when someone set foot on the Shadow Isles, and he loves torture, so he probably freed the father's soul with a task he couldn't refuse... lure the son away from the wards. Thresh then spooked him and he dropped the gold liquid that protected him from the Black Mist of the Isles. That's why, when he almost fell of that ledge and looked at his hands, that was his soul trying to leave his body. Thresh could also teleport anywhere on the Isles so really it wasn't a chase as much as prolonged torture. The best opinions for the kids death are 1) the Black Mist slowly killed him over the course of a few minutes (totally feasible) 2) Thresh sent a hook his way and that's why he fell, then Thresh just punished the mother by watching her son's soul get ripped away.

The Monkey bomb is Jinx's champion spell in the card game. The card is called get excited. The activation cost is to discard 1 of your own cards to deal 3 damage to anything. Arcane kept the flavor that the monkey bomb is powerful at the cost of sacrificing something (in the case of arcane Mylo, Claggor, and Vander)

PLEASE react to "How Arcane Masters Tragedy, Trauma, and Tone" by Savage Books, I think its something not only you guys but every viewer would enjoy watching. Love yall.

[@tsukkirina]

[@gankr3546]

Viktor does look pretty glorious

[@joshuas7383]

I remember seeing a kindred lamb mask in the show

[@hentacletentai2160]

Riot Games don't copy strike people by the way, except for the original Warriors music video(not the one in this video) which is owned by Imagine Dragons, and the audio in miss fortune animation workshop

[@pla9galctrl75]

Fun fact the robot in jinx's wild rift is blitzcrank and he's viktor's son

[@lukasF777]

Yes, in the game the Champions Interact with each other, and that says things about Lore, WARWICK's lines for characters VI and Jinx are very specific.

[@erisianpope4979]

49:33 "Is that his friend?" .....Um.....what? Do you greet your friends with a dropping sword slash? Los Knowing the context of enemies and allies really helps one enjoy these cinematics.

[@siriosnight9869]

you couldn't resist a minute to know more XD XD

[@keyronkathrynekathrynkeyron]

Fact Voice actor of braum in 44:00 Is also voice actor of Vander 🥰

[@fixylieberus2925]

"she doesnt have a parachute" i think she doesnt need it, her blood is like 80% shimmer

[@verax31]

I had a lot of fun watching with you! Pls do more on league cinematics!!!

[@kairo8155]

Most of Tales of Runeterra videos are not exacly Cannon. Main goal of them was to portray a glimpse of what each region is about.

[@mintyfresh4855]

21:04 "Awww.....who would hurt him?" League fans: All of us.

[@somethingwrong2701]

Wooah I've been waiting for your reaction to these, I love you Guys

[@TheOfficialPotatoTY]

they also call vander "the hound of the underground"

[@mickaelsflow6774]

Ah! I was wondering if you'd see Get Jinxed somewhere. There we go! The beauty of it was... this was our intro to Jinx. Insta crush for the Blue Lady! :D (And now... now... darkness... and love!)

[@ShadowAngelS2K]

The lanes in the series is not a reference to the lanes in the game, it's just a name. Singed got his face burned but thats not the reason he hides his face, it's because while creating Warwick he got scarred. Jae Madarda should still be alive, he was described as an adventure not a soldier.

[@Noxshade]

I can't sit here and lore dump all day, so here's one character: The "Saber-like" girl from "Warriors" and "You Really Got Me" is named Lux, and she's from Demacia, the same nation featured in "Before Glory." Demacia is a small kingdom that was founded by refugees from magical wars know as the Rune Wars. They are super prejudiced against magic and mages, which is hard for Lux because she secretly has laser-light magic powers. In Warriors, she and her brother, big sword man Garen are fighting the man with chains Sylas, who was an imprisoned mage and who became friends with Lux, then abused her trust to escape the mage-prison. Lux is super hesitant to fight him since she knows he's kind of in the right, but decides to oppose him when he uses goes to kill her brother, showing her magic power before the entire Demacian army and summoning Demacia's anti-magic stone colossus, Galio.

[@MACReact]

Oh wow, was she forced into exile or something after she showed everyone her powers?

[@Noxshade]

@@MACReact Unclear, since there's been no real Demacia lore since then. But at the end of the cinematic the entirety of Garen's legion an Garen back her up against Sylas, so they may keep her secret...

[@armageddonhusai]

21:08 awww who would hurt him? Us: Everyone I guess...... IoI

[@issacko866]

should definitely watch Necrit, he does everything league lore related, he's the lore god

[@testpattern23]

this is why this show isn't just good, it's legendary

[@cody2oo]

Guys should watch Enemy music video with JID. Lots of little easter eggs and character moments you'll get after watching the whole show.

[@kamenballer]

I really like the backstory of Viktor here in Arcane, in my POV it's like the Ultron A.I. discover a not famous and not rich Tony Stark that makes him succumbs to dark technology.

[@heliopaws]

so close to finishing this show and then i am right back here to catching this once caught up lol

[@zaphirahh5355]

the second to the last cinematic is a trailer for the release of LoL in mobile

[@bullymaguire6937]

Vi also has a theme song called Here Comes Vi, the singer even did a remix with get jinxed

[@arielbarcelo1701]

Turbo chemtank is actually an image of item in the game where it grants you "movement speed:)" that is why in arcane they are super fast. i love watching this type of video btw. I watched it till end:) new sub :)

[@Graph3.14]

If Arcane become more successful, we will prolly see a lot of Runeterras Region. My guess in Season 2 would be still Piltover/Zaun with a glimpse of Ionia Noxus War.

[@henryadomako7397]

League of legends cinematics are incredible especially the Awaken music video and Ruination

[@ice_bucket]

I watched you guys.. the whole hour 😂✌

[@jemanvilla9867]

you should watch some more.. the samurai guys Yasou has his own long video.. if I remember correctly that was ( Kin of the Stainedblade) or somthing... and Annie Origins will surely make you cry..
