Netflix often has a bias in their selection of who to publish, hence why a lot of "netflix made" shows that arent techincally netflix "made" have very similar tones and biases.

The void is not a "Multiversal" thing, it is just contained to the one universe, and wants to consume that universe. Not EVERY Universe. Same with Dark Star, it is not canon to the main story-line, nor will it ever really be relevant. The Main Canon has an established universe that does not interact with the others, this includes the Void not going into other universes.

I think they mistake certain skin universes which have multi-versal story properties (Dark Star (Event Horizon), PsyOps/Arctic Ops. Star Guardian, Pulsefire and Odyssey) as interacting with the base universe as well which is an additional leap in logic, they have not taken that step yet. I think the Ekko game is a big contributor to this, but I believe the intention was just for it to be just an easter egg/ for that game itself to be non-canon as Ekko looks through separate universes. Arcane wasn't regarded as canon when Convergence came out so Convergence on its' own suggests Arcane to be a separate universe, now Riot has firmly declared Arcane canon so much of the old lore of Piltover is conflicted. Riot has just really bad stewards of the IP throughout the entire reboot experience post-2014, they mistreated writers who left and took their story directions with them, Legends of Runeterra is famously pretty bad at being consistent in-universe and Riot Forge games legitimately did their own thing: specifically the Nunu game and some of Convergence as well. They just didn't continuity seriously and now they're paying for it.

I appreciate you doing a video about Arcane/League of Legends, but maybe contact a League KZbinr before you post it. Lots in here is outrigtht wrong or at least inaccurate. First, Riot made Arcane, not Netflix. Second, the multiverse as such doesn't exist. There are some skin lines (KDA, Star Guardian, Odyssey/Dark Star, High Noon from the top of my head) which are canon in their own bubble, but separate from main Runeterra lore. The Void is THE threat to existence in Runeterra, but not in the other universes. They have their own story and lore. Third, there are a lot of places and regions on Runeterra that are disconnected from Arcane and still canon, albeit not as developed and refined. Strictly speaking to modern lore Noxus is one of the most important areas, even the timeline puts Noxus' foundation as the year 0. Whatever happens in Arcane is canon, but stuff that happens around it, too (Ruined King sealed, Ryze looking for the World Runes, Ixtal being on the path to connecting with the outside world, the Mage Rebellion in Demacia coming to a close, Lissandra keeping an Eye on Nunu and WIllump to stop the void and many more). They dont have to fit Arcane, at most they just have to not contradict it if they even cross paths. I do agree that league lore is confusing and needs a serious cleanup, but given the current focus in the company any lore development is very difficult. They had to fight to give Nidallee new voicelines. I pray Arcane will be followed by many more amazing shows expanding the lore of league like a story about LeBlanc keeping Mordekaiser in the Death Realm while he builds his army, Azir reviving Shurima, the conflict between Solari and Lunari, Jax fighting against the Void in Icathia, Ryze vs the Darkin. Lots of cool stuff I hope to see tl;dr: More research please

I kinda disagree with you, like hard. The thing is any old lore is just legends, Riot just said that everything GOING FORWARDS is cannon, if they think that noxus shouldn't have Mordekaiser then it won't, it's all around Arcane and everything after that. And yes the skins are different universes, it's explicitly said in the cosmic/star guardian skin lines that they are multiple timelines, convergence told the same thing. What they got wrong was the Bel'veth void, that it's different from the watchers void. The all-consuming, universe devouring void is the one in Freljord guarded by Lissandra, that's the dark star from cosmic and star guardian, the Bel'veth one is a region that's infected by the void and started to spread like cancer, in that regard you're correct the Bel'veth void is a world threat (like Viego or Mordekaiser), the watcher's void is the universe threat.

A few corrections: 1. Saying League is not known for its "groundbreaking lore" is misleading. It has GREAT lore, there's a ton of people invested in the story of these characters 2. Viktor's lore flip flopped back and forth all the time. It was not as simple as "old Viktor was more complex and they made him a comical supervillain". The original Viktor was a comical supervillain, and then they changed his lore like four times flip flopping his morality. 3. The Dark Star skinline does not want to destroy the multiverse. The skin multiverses are entirely separate and have no bearing on the story, with the exception of Spirit Blossom, which are actual spirits in Ionia that just take the form of certain characters. Dark Star is NOT NEARLY the main villains of the League IP. There is also nothing suggesting that the Void is after the whole multiverse. 4. You are correct that Viktor and Jayce's stories are different, but you're wrong about why. The Viktor we see is the man before he became full metal, so using his current League lore to say hes different isn't quite accurate cuz Viktor hasn't gotten to that point yet 5. The Riot Forge games, most notably Convergence, were mostly created before they announced the unified canon. Convergence also does not fit into Arcane. Ekko is NOT the same character. Ekko in Convergence is League Ekko, NOT Arcane Ekko, and the story in Convergence is about League P/Z, NOT Arcane. The other games have nothing to do with P/Z so it's impossible to say how accurate they are to Arcane, but odds are it's entirely inaccurate because in League lore, magic is a commom practical all across the world, and not some thing that needs to be discovered. Jayce and Viktor look like idiots trying to find "magic" when they can go to one of a dozen different locations that use magic commonplace. This is why the Arcane merge DOES NOT WORK, because they have to spend the entire universe to make it work. 6. However, this does NOT mean it changes the Void or any of the skin lines. As said earlier, Dark Star was never relevant to the main universe. There is nothing suggesting the Void doesn't exist (outside of Jayce and Viktor being dumb and not knowing that Shurima exists). The other skin lines were NEVER relevant to the main story so they are unchanged 7. Bel'Veth is not the empress of the Void. The Watchers are the rulers of the Void. Bel'Veth is just a particularly sentient monster that BELIEVES herself to be the empress of the Void and is trying to overthrow the Watchers

Jayce and Viktor developing hextech works out just fine for the lore. They did not "find magic", i suggest you to rewatch first season. Piltover's council and Heimendinger spends like first 3 episodes arguing with Jayce, saying that magic is dangerous and the primary reason why Piltover was built. To make life for common people who cant use magic better and to create sanctuary from other mages and their wars. And for that they focused on science. While most of the world stuck in pre-industrial period, with different kind of mages ruling commoners and warring with each other, Piltover is century ahead of them in scientific field and industrialisation. What Viktor and Jayce did is opened a way for common man, who doesnt have any talent and knowledge of magic, to be able to use it, like and ordinary mechanical device. They combined technology and magic to achieve that. This trope is generally called magitech, here it is hextech.

They didn't throw out all the old lore, they are just going to improve on it so it makes more sense, that's what they did with piltover and zaun in arcane. All the void lore is still relatively cannon, it just hasn't going through the refinement process that has happened in arcane. When they said that going forward everything from them is cannon, they meant all other forms of media as well, not just arcane. If you watch any of their champion trailers or cinematic shorts since everything has become cannon ie the bel veth one, it proves that void and it's lore is still cannon and part of the universe but it hasn't gone through it's refinement process yet. I really do not understand how you came to the conclusion that they are just "throwing out lore" and all the big driving plot points of league is just gone. 16:48 Yes they are reminding people that void is the main villians of the whole ip, released after they said everything going forward is cannon.

@@chuckled125 The difference with Star Wars is that Disney explicitly threw out the old EU lore, and said that only the movies were canon. Then, they sometimes reference events or stories from the EU, but the default approach there is "assume it's not canon until we make it so". Basically, the old lore was discarded, but Disney left themselves the option to opt in to bits and pieces of it and "recanonize" it. With League lore, they're doing the opposite: Assume everything we've got right now is canon unless Arcane (or one of the following projects) contradicts it. The shows and other new media will be the new default source of truth, but only as a clarifying thread... so, for comparison, if Disney was running this project, right now the Void is completely decanonized and does not exist, but they reserve the right to someday make a show about characters from the void or throw out some reference to the void, in which case it becomes real again. With Riot's approach, everything we know about the void is still true, but a show might come out that takes all of the disparate and sometimes contradictory storylines and smooshes them down into one single timeline of events, which will be the new "correct" canon. As an example, the lore around Kassadin, Malzahar, and Kai'Sa is pretty convoluted, and the rough outline is that Malz is a void prophet who tricked Kassadin into throwing his daughter Kai'Sa into the void, so he would follow her in and Malz could convince him to join his void cult... probably. It's not super clear. They came out at very different times, and each one has lore that might contradict the other. If Riot makes a show called "Voidborne" or something, they could straighten out that story, and anything they say IN that show is now the new canon, but until that time, the loose messy version of the lore is still generally true.

The story in Arcane happens in Piltover and Zaun (Noxians do show up in the show but we didn't see the region). There are MANY regions in Runeterra. For example, they could make a show based in Shadow Isles and the story of Arcane would have no effect because the regions are so far apart and there's little to no crossover. So no, the lore won't be affected by Arcane unless it's specifically a PnZ lore. Also, Riot WILL continue creating "alternate universe" skins.

3:57 sorry but Riot actually had a Lore Keeper to keep up with the basic lore of the game Champions that cane out actually had anywhere between 3-5 paragraphs of history and lore. There was also a tab located on the players tab called Runeterra News which actually gave players small snipits of game lore. The original lore of the game was the world was in such chaos between the many of waring factions that the Institute of War was created. There every nation would send their best champions to duel it out on the 5v5 map or the 3v3 map controlled by Summoners. It was a game within a game. Which ever side won the duel was granted whatever they originally came in with. This was to stop the land being destroyed by war, magic and famine. So if Noxus wanted to take over X amount of Demician Land they would come to the Institute of War and battle it out. If Noxus won they took that Demician land, likewise if Demica won, Noxus would be denied that land grab. A little bit of research or talking to OG League players that cared about lore would have reviled this fact.

Ruined king, Darkin, Volibear's followers, Jhin, Gangplank, pyke, 10 primordial demons and all other demons. Dark star is just a skinline and will never be relevant.

I think the void can be considered the main villain since 1. It wants to destroy the whole concept of existing making it the biggest threat scale 2. Out of all villains it has the most champions connected to it lorewise (on either side) 3. It is important in a lot of history of Runeterra (for example the creation of Darkin and war of the demigods and three sisters) Out of all main villains void is the mainest but of course it is not the only threat in Runeterra

I think you guys somewhat misrepresented league's lore. Technicly the skins are other universes, but the main universe was said to never interact with any of the other universes. Also "void" is the main universe's main villian, not an alternate threat. In the main league lore there are a LOT of inconsistensies, but not because of the alternate universes. Also, Arcane just made it a LOT more confusing. What is magic? Are half of the league champs really rare mages? The existanse of magic and mages is basicly made rare from being common. All in all, league lore is and was never a multiverse, and arcane as a canon series did more bad than good. Watch tbskien's video on Why Arcane should not be canon...

Spirit Blossom isn't actually an alt universe. It's one of a few Lore Skin Lines. The spirit blossom champions are representations of spirits in the Ionian belief on the afterlife. (Most notably Kindred, as spirit blossom Kindred is what Ionians believe Kindred looks like. Kindred is one of multiple (but most recognized) grim reapers in this world and has two skins that represent them in different regions. Base is as of yet undefined, but Chosen of the Wolf is Noxian and Spirit Blossom is Ionian.)

Okay okay. So I play League since 2015 and am highly invested in the games lore since the beginning. I even choose champions to play after how i liked their lore. And yes, I get it. It is definatly necessary to make more clear what is canon and what not. Especially between new champions and old ones that are not updated yet. That aside, I AM a Viktor main. Mostly because his lore. I spent way too much time diving into his and Jayces lore and i loved the way it was written were they were describing the same events but highly change depending on what view point you read. And thats what I don't like about Arcane becoming canon. Old Viktor was so cool for me because he actually believed that mechanizing people was the way to go to help them. He wasn't just plain evil at first, his morale and look on things highly distorted by his traumatic past before becoming obsessed and a maniac with a whole cult surrounding him and stuff like that. But that's what i really liked about his lore. With all the little side stories they wrote you could see his decent into madness but the idea he had wasn't born out of hatred or evil intentions. It showed a character that had good intentions but they got warped the more he dove into madness. And now....we have a viktor that just does these things because he is ill. Not because he is convinced its the right thing to do but because HE needs to do it to survive. It feels so lame in comparison for me and changes his chatacter so drastically that it is basically a whole other person. Sure, that could change in season 2 but the way it is now it feels really disappointing for me that they went this route. I really hope it changes because i loved arcane as a whole but more like an alternate version then completely deleting the old chars. Still, i really enjoed this episode and it mentioned a lot of stuff i also noticed ^-^

I completely agree with this! In my head, I tend to consider Arcane as an AU.

As someone who has played League since beta and also played DOTA in WC3, I was EXTREMELY skeptical of how you guys would cover this. But, you guys did a pretty good job. There were a couple things y'all got wrong though. -Not EVERY skinline is canon. Many of them are just fun bonuses to the game. (example: the LUCHADOR and ARCADE skins) Some skinlines are. (Example: SENTINELS and CHOSEN OF THE WOLF) -There is more than one "Big Bad" for Runeterra. The Void, The Shadow Isles, the Watchers (can be argued to be a subset of the Void,) Lissandra and her tribe in the Freljord, The Darkin and remnants of creatures and characters from the Rune Wars are all similarly "Big Bads". -Also, with the way they have constructed the world, you can see that they are building it towards an MMO centric structure. 2 (or maybe 3) base factions in a "starter continent". Intertwining of multiple races within the major factions. Separated and/or isolated landmasses for higher level areas and expansions. Entire "undiscovered" continents for future content. (Camavor) The lore is being geared towards the MMO, not the shows. The shows are microcosms within the greater universe that is the canvas where the MMO will be drawn. Think of the MMO as a collection of books all within the same universe, and each show will be a separate title within the collection. Other than these quick points, you guys were pretty spot on. Good job with the video. I hope to see more of this in the future. Edit: Also, it would have been nice for you guys to delve DEEPER into some of the lore. But, seeing how the video came out, probably a good thing you stayed mostly surface level.
