Did you read the comments on the last "Agatha All Along" video? Many of your subscribers are expressing concerns about M.T. They either don't want him involved or want you to review his work before it’s uploaded to the channel. His work is sloppy and needs improvement; he often reaches far and gets many things wrong.

I did hear a theory that what Viktor is doing to the citizens of Zaun seems like he's curing them, but he may be inadvertedly infecting them. The Hexcore he worked on was kind of corrupted. Regardless, very cool scenes.

[@lazybones4752]

Why do I have a feeling that Viktor is the one who save Jayce and his mother in the blizzard and not Ryze. That hooded figure is just like how the way Viktor is wearing a hooded clothes, esp when he was holding a staff.. It looks super weird

[@LoveYourself-318]

but viktor would not be in the position he is in currently without jayce, viktor even almost threw his life away before jayce interrupted. It just wouldn't make any sense.

Btw Viktor is receiving a rework to match arcane soon so if he becomes a cyborge is to be determined

[@KaisserVince]

I hope so too

[@snakerat4161]

He's already a cyborg, well actually only his consciousness remains in the current canon. He has no magic at all, I'm assuming the rework will make him a mageborg now.

[@FenrirAlter]

We saw Vander hanging on the walls of singed in a short scene in S1. WW is Vander + we got a Event when Vi and Warwick are playing against each other on the new ARAM Map, saying that fighting against Warwick reminds her of a certain someone.

[@lovebirde]

Thanks for this! Amazingly thorough breakdown. I watched everything so closely last night and have spent a ton of time analyzing theories from season 1. I’m not a LoL person so the weaving of the references there is really helpful. I’m so far loving the animation and next level of their already incredible layering of styling. I agree with some that the pace is fast and doesn’t allow for as much breathing room for emotional beats but I’m hoping that shifts. They just have so much to pack in. Also, it’s def Vander. Seems like Silco is at the bottom of the lake (was that real tho? Water was so clear and jinx didn’t seem affected by its toxins). It also just makes so much sense with him hanging in lab at the end of last season and what I know of his lines/backstory and other things in LoL. It’s gonna be devastating, I’m sure esp bc he can speak and has vague memories in league-prob will be true here, too. Plus, caitvi kissing was so amazing! Even if then they immediately had a falling out and Cait friggin hit her and now may go dark. Vi def will go into devastation/underground ring fighter from what we know. Just wish they could’ve been happy longer than 2 seconds. Please let them be.

[@eternal7912]

Janna who is said to help the people of Zaun by giving them fresh air, is represented by a blue bird. Jinx has blue hair and pumps the Grey to topside using a fan in an old Janna temple. Coincidence? Also where did you get that its not clear if Warwick wasn't a mutated human, and the theory that if it was its Silco? One, we already glimpsed a more human Warwick in the final moments of season 1, and two it being Silco makes absolutely no sense. One, Silco was still alive while Singed was working on Warwick, and when he did die, Jinx let his body sink into the water. Singed doesn't know where SIlco's body is. To top it all off, Vander's story lines up 100% with the hints about Warwick's backstory in the lore. Warwick is Vander.

[@AsmatVillasin-u6o]

It hurted me so much when vi and jinx were fighting

[@dakshrai]

Sky was inspired by viktor and the last rune missing in the hexcore was the rune of inspiration! That’s why the hexcore consumed sky and this resulted in viktor getting the hexcore leg!

[@renx81]

He actually already had the leg at that point. He was trying to transform his whole body when Sky tried to intervene.

[@dakshrai]

@ he had the hexcore leg then? No I think he got it when sky got sucked in the core no?

[@renx81]

@@dakshrai You're wrong. He did the leg thing first, then he had that triumphant running scene at the harbor, followed by him carving runes to his whole body, realizing he was out of shimmer but proceeding with the experiment anyway, which is when Sky tried to intervene and ended up getting disintegrated. If anything, it was the lack of shimmer that caused whatever happened to Sky, because shimmer was needed to counteract hextech's corruption of living matter.

[@dakshrai]

@ alright!! Saw season one a long time back! Thank you for the clarification! I still think sky has some connection to the inspiration rune because se literally says she is inspired by victor like all the time and now she is in with victor in most of his thoughts too! Anyway let’s see what happens at the end so s2act3

[@oluwabunmiadedotun3807]

Is Victor some kind of messiah now?

[@illuminatedstonepersonisp6869]

hes the machine herald

[@Mariizoala]

i think viktor is jesus and sky is God. my theory

[@gilga3039]

yes i think like that too

[@fahmo_]

in the League of Legends lore, he basically tries to use his machine/cybernetic skills to help people with illness, injuries, etc in Zaun. a cult arises that believes in machinification (they call it the "Glorious evolution), and they make him their messiah/icon. i'm not sure how they will portray it in Arcane - likely something to do with the people he cures.

[@animezilla4486]

I guess

[@jomyrace7653]

its so cool that every end of each episode is a warwick teaser

[@Rayzacks]

I think the person saving Jayce as a kid and his mom is Viktor and this is a huge paradox because without Jayce, Viktor never could've survived but yeah I guess this big core is something like a "Time Machine" or some stuff. My guess is that Arcane is just a big loophole that will always repeat itself with Viktor being the anchor.

[@raimondolle5707]

Necrit a league lore nerd believes it was ryze a league champ who saved Jayce and ryzes mentor was the one who blew up the city around 200 years ago which scared Heimerdinger.

[@Rayzacks]

[@saranaila5905]

For the hexcore i think it was ment to be confusing. It's magic acting on it's own, with no orders. Even the characters involved don't understand what's going on.

[@raresechimenco6993]

There is a shadowy organisation in noxus called the black rose, led by LeBlanc, which could be her but with a different appearance. The hextech is going wild, uncontrollable, immense magical power. I am surprised camille ziggs or zac didn't have any screen time yet

Disappointing analysis, there is a clear difference between ppl like Necrit who know the lore and ppl who are given a script to read for content. Not one of the "Easter eggs" discussed Leblanc's involvement with the Black Rose and he constantly mispronounces character names. Also we knew Warwick was Vander over a year ago.

Season 1 felt like it had a lot of dialogue, but in a good way. It made us get more immerse into the story, enjoy more the characters. Now for the first 3 episodes of season 2 it feels like they were rushed, it feels empty. Still good, but well...

[@abrawolf]

It'll probably work better when watching it all together, a lot of what's happening right now is all payoffs from s1 setups

[@RisingSignals]

I definitely feel a difference in the writing and pacing.. it's off to me, and the emotional beats don't get a moment to breathe.

[@Bluewolfzer]

Same thoughts but then again, the creators themselves wanted to move on into a different league of legends animated project after arcane so maybe that’s why its rushed? They’re speed running wrapping up the arc? Though I do miss the quotable quotes 😢

[@horizonblack8351]

It was rushed because of the chaos situation, not empty as all. A lot of story driven into together with the mystery of Arcane woven their fates in the background

[@OceanPulsew]

@@abrawolf its not a reason. Act 1 from season 1 felt like it was a mini show. Sometimes i even forgot act 1 is the same as act 2 and 3.

breh almost like you never saw the first season. (no insult) they showed in the first season how vanders body blew up after landing and using that much shimmer before the time skip. And after showing the outlines of Singed "project" it had the same proportions poor vander had after his transformations. it makes perfect sense warwick even in league has the voice line towards vi "Who tought you how to punch like that?" remembering his own hazy past. and they added that voiceline before arcane or probably during its development together with Warwicks rework.

I hate cait more and more throughout the episodes.

[@fleabag6477]

Vi had over a decade to grieve, Cait was bombarded with attack after attack after attack not even 24 hours after her mother; 's death....And when she had a good shot on the woman who killed her mother and caused destruction to her friends and people, Vi stopped her because "omg what if you miss and hit the kid??? " Such a dumb cop-out because she wouldn't have missed it. And about Martial Law, it was Mel's mother who really orchestrated everything even going as far as helping Jinx and her people with the attack during the memorial so idk how ur blaming Cait, she deserves justice for her mother's death and it keeps getting taken away from her.
