@jasonskeans3327 nope, she's the one to burn it down, and then someone will come and heals it with GLORIOUS EVOLUTION!! But they might go in a different direction, but I hope not

[@troikas3353]

Im hoping Jinx ends up betraying both and truly just wants to watch everything burn. Powder was the only character in S1 with no interest whatsoever in the politics at play, she wasn't thinking about anything beyond just surviving her mental issues through her next minute and everything she did was motivated solely by getting validation from silco as part of her toxic codependency with him. And getting that validation meant she spent nearly a decade murdering Zaunites for him, she's killed and hurt more of her own cities people than she has Topsiders by a wide margin at the end of S1. So her suddenly caring about Zauns revolution or being a leader would be a bizarre left field shift.

[@mathies3598]

Im predicting in the heat of the moment, Vi breaks her promise to Caitlyn in order to protect jinx, which will leave her relationship with Cait (temporarily) broken, while still not being entirely reconciled with Jinx either. Thus: she now has neither. And she will blame herself as usual. Enter: Goth Vi

If you look closely, you can see that Vi is wearing her Enforcer badge and the same Piltover gear as Caitlyn when she's on the hoverboard with Ekko. Her Gaunlets are also new models if you look at the details. At this point Vi's hair is long and stained black as well, so it has to be after her Pitfighter era. All this together means that hopefully she reunites with Caitlyn again and rejoins the Enforcers in Act 3. Figures crossed at least, we pray. Since Ambessa is fighting Enforcers and the Firelights are only attacking Noxians during that fight, it might mean that Zaun and Piltover unite to drive them out as well, with Caitlyn promising independence if they win. This season is looking so cool I can't stop theorising. Never had a series make me so scared and so excited at the same time.

[@XOISHTAR]

Considering her look during the “you were right” line, I think it’s from a fair bit later than the reveal of her first iteration of her enforcer uniform… maybe they will have an encounter between Vi and Jinx (the one from the other teasers where Vi finally calls her Jinx but is wearing a first iteration without the goggles) and it goes extremely poorly making Vi realise that she has been holding onto a ghost of the little girl she always saw Powder as, and so she finally goes all in with Cait’s side.

[@XOISHTAR]

I also think that everything happening with Vander/Warwick occurs the same night as the council attack (because Vi is in her season 1 gear and all the red night looks for those scenes) and it’s taking him down alongside Cait that first gets her to join the enforcers (when we see the first iteration look with her uncomfortable) because she thinks it’s because of Jinx and joins mainly to try to stop her and save her (not as nonviolent as in season 1, but still not willing to accept that Jinx is who her sister is… until she faces her again on her own and Jinx proves it) only for it to be at the same time as the attack on Piltover with the colourful explosions. I’m not sure if it is a legitimate emo phase… because she’s in a fighting pit. Maybe it’s a mission to try to convince Imbessa (if I’m misspelling that, I apologise and let me know… I’m referring to Mel’s mom) to ally with Piltover, and is forced to prove herself in an arena fight. That’s my theory at least. It would be interesting if it is a full emo phase where she’s trying to be on her own… maybe after having to face what happened to Vander, she walks away from it all and is brought into the enforcers by Cait when she hears that Jinx is the one being blamed for Warwick/Vander’s rampage. I have absolutely no idea on any of this so if any ends up being right, I’ll be just as surprised as everyone else. I just think it’s going to be a push to get Vi to join the enforcers, and another one to get her to fully commit to fighting Jinx for real. I do see her and Cait staying on the same side but it being a bit tense at the beginning because of Vi holding onto the ghost of Powder.

[@kalebkaiser7505]

def not a random child since we see her and jinx together in the background of a different teaser. I'm 100% sure Jinx is going to follow Silco and Vander's footsteps by taking in her own adoptive daughter. Especially considering how much Jinx and Silco have paralleled each other a lot in season 1.

Elijah's reaction to pit fighter Vi is a whole mood 😅😂

[@healstorm]

The mural was the most shocking thing for me. It is the perfect example of Zaun ditching Vi after she “abandoned” them; because you know, she used to hold this title of “Vander’s prodigy” but now the one standing beside him is Jinx, Silco’s weapon. It hits even harder when you remember Vander’s last words to Vi was that she had to protect Powder, now that serves as a foreshadowing to Jinx becoming the most important symbol for Zaun. Also, she is finally stepping out of her sister’s shadow and having Vi looking at that mural, Jinx is proving her she can be useful. I swear I could talk about it for like 5 hours straight.

[@blurrble5]

[@adriankuban3134]

Before the explosion Jayce is positioned right next to Viktor meaning Viktor's hexcore limbs could instinctively protect both of them with some sort of shield. I don't think Mel needs to survive because her arc seemed complete with her choosing peace. In my opinion Mel dying would be both thematic and ironic because her death also signifies the death of peace in the region and because of her mother, her death is the cause of the war.

[@jeffkoenig7402]

[@andrewmendonca6876]

"You were right, Cait. My sister is gone." Omg. That made me tear up a lot.

[@pollointerestelar7439]

11:17 an explanation that I liked was this phrase from South Park: "A goth believes that deep down the world is totally f*cked up. But an EMO thinks that deep down THEY are totally f*cked up." A more complete definition would be: Emo: A distinct subculture emphasizing emotional expression, introspection, and personal authenticity; Fashion includes skinny jeans, eyeliner, band t-shirts. Sensitive, shy, introverted, or angry. May suffer from low self-esteem, anxiety, or depression. May use self-i***** or su***** as a coping mechanism or a form of protest. Goth: Subculture with a focus on dark aesthetics, individualism, and the macabre; Fashion influenced by punk, Victorian, Edwardian styles; Emphasis on dark attire and makeup. Introverted, creative, intelligent, or mysterious. May have a sense of humor that is dark, ironic, or sarcastic. May have an interest in occultism, paganism, witchcraft, or vampirism. May have a fascination with death, decay, graveyards, or the supernatural. So Vi has gothic style aesthetics, but emotionally falls into the Emo category (of course, you can be Emo and Gothic at the same time, there are no rules that prevent you from doing that).

More importantly, having seen a higher res screencap of it now, it's not a wolf at all but a dog wearing a pair of spiked collars. In other words, it's a reference to Cerberus, the watchdog of the Underworld from the Greek mythology. Something that might resonate with Vi and definitely deliberately parallels Vander's role in Zaun.

i wouldn’t be surprised if vi did underground fighting as a way to make money before becoming an enforcer. she spent most of her life in prison and had no formal schooling before that. but she’s also super recognizable cause of her hair and her relationship with jinx. hence the goth look.

[@DrWatson4]

Emo Vi could just be a Vi undercover since she’ll be highly recognisable with the red hair and jacket and tattoos but if she’s got mat black hair clothing and make up on chances are she’ll be recognised a whole lot less especially in the Undercity which I’m guessing will be a no go area for her in her normal attire since Jinx is the one running it now

[@seanrilian]

This is my initial thought as well. VI has dealt with a lot of hardship, but does not seem the type to deal with struggle by going through an emo/goth phase/mode. Perhaps there is even another brawler they take in to custody that looks like Vi with face paint and she assumes that identity for recon purposes.

[@mr.moviemafia]

Elijah is EASILY my most anticipated Arcane reactor!!!

[@SaiyanHeretic]

Based on rumors, teasers, and what little I know of League lore, I think Arcane S2 goes like this: Act 1. Takes place in the immediate aftermath of Jinx bombing the Piltover Council. Mel died, so Ambessa is on the warpath and pushing what remains of city leadership to declare war on Zaun. Cassandra also died, so Caitlyn wants revenge against Jinx specifically. Cait puts together a strike team and Vi joins up, finally accepting that the sister she knew is gone. There is a second Undercity uprising, people rally around Jinx to unite as the newly declared state of Zaun. Vi and Jinx directly clash, and some device she makes explodes, triggering a disaster across Zaun that puts a damper on the movement. Vi thinks her sister is now *literally* dead and she disappears into the depths of Zaun. And obviously, Jayce and Viktor survived the bombing, because they have Plot Armor. The big weird orb is part of Viktor (and the Hex Core's) plan to forcibly techno-evolve people - he's called the "Machine Herald" for a reason. This trailer gives us our only look at Jayce thus far, his keepsake magic crystal fused to his wrist from the bombing, gripping his hammer as he prepares to confront Viktor. These scenes could take place during Act 2 or Act 3. Act 2. After a brief time skip, Zaun is worse than it's ever been. Jinx is on the run, hunted by new criminal factions which have risen up in the wake of her latest fuck up. Look out for Champions like Urgot and Renata Glasc to at least get name-dropped. We find that Vi is living as a pit fighter. This is when Singed unleashes Warwick, perhaps on Jinx's trail, which is what bring Vi back out of her self-imposed isolation. Notably, there's a shot of Jinx with Zapper, her sidearm from the game, and notably with a prosthetic middle finger on her left hand. Caitlyn has settled into her role as the new Sheriff, but she now has to deal both with the trouble in Zaun and mounting pressure from Noxus, as Ambessa is bringing her armies to the City of Progress. We briefly see Ekko in Piltover Academy duds, so this is probably because he's become an apprentice under Heimerdinger or something, as they are both working on a way to bring peace to the sister cities. I expect this is when Viktor's subplot will really come to the fore, his plans a narrative contrast to whatever they are doing. Act 3. War truly comes to Piltover/Zaun, as Noxus openly attempts to invade and occupy. This may have been prompted by Viktor's plot giving Ambessa a pretext to move in and "save the world" from his supposed madness. All the shots of Caitlyn, Vi, and Ekko in heavy armor are likely during this time. We even see the Firelights helping in the fight against Noxian soldiers. Vi's hair is not fully black anymore, but it's still streaked with dye and grown much longer in the back. Jinx has also dyed her hair with streaks of purple and seemingly cut off her braids (!). Can't tell which side she's on anymore, but thematically, it would be interesting if she's fighting for Zaun against Noxus and this earns her a bit of leeway with the law. A sort of, "We'll let you go this time but from now on you're Public Enemy #1" kinda thing from Piltover's Finest. That would nicely set up the status quo of the games.

Im pretty sure Ekko is with Jinx considering the art of her is very similar to the one that was in the firelight base and we see a firelight when Jinx is surrounded by the blue haired people so she might have been scoping her out for Ekko. What i also noticed is that golden arcane stuff on the people was yellow and white vein ones whilst Viktor had purple vein ones when he was messing with it so is there like a good and bad arcane/thing. And the shadow looks very similar to Silco and when Powder is being taken by Sevika you can see she looks a bit different to how she was with Vi so im wondering if her hallucinations get worse and she hallucinates Silco and wants to go back to him or something as Sevika seemed calm when taking her away, not as if they were in danger like fighting Vander/Warwick so those two might link.

I think Sevika is supporting Jinx because Jinx is actually doing what Sevika wanted Vander to do from the start, take the fight to Piltover. While Silco just adjusted the undercity to his Zaun idealism, he still didn't rise against Piltover, at least not yet, but now Jinx pulled the trigger and Sevika is saying Jinx is a symbol, just like how they saw Vander.

[@PaintItBlue92]

[@AlexRyzhy]

Calling it now: nothing NEW happens per se to get us emo Vi (frankly she's traumatized enough for it already I think), BUT she's stuck at Piltover (for obvious reasons) punching some bag in an expensive topside gym and it EATS at her. So maybe it's a moment of planning or some stalemate, and she needs a proper fight, needs to feel like herself again, like a fighter from the streets of Zaun, so she goes back to the Undercity and joins pit fighting. But everyone and their mother knows her in Zaun, knows that she's their new symbol's "treachorous" sister, so she does in disguise. Cover the very recognizable hair, cover your face in face paint, and hope that your punches aren't familiar enough to them. (And then it all goes to shit anyway!)

[@SwordTune]

Personally I don't think there's enough time for a side quest. And it also doesn't match Arcane's style. Pit fighter Vi is going to be part of her main arc. She very likely get disillusioned with everything, Enforcers versus Undercity, and goes deeper into despair.

[@AlexRyzhy]

@@SwordTune I mean yeah, but also I think that hardly contradicts what I said? I think it'll be a big part of Vi struggling with disillusionment and guilt and helplessness/uselessness and losing her identity, so she tries to reclaim it through fighting in Zaun again. Then she either blows her cover and provokes some escalation, or escalation happens elsewhere and she misses it due to being AWOL which adds to her ever growing guilt, and either way it's back to action. In those moments where she jumps onto Ekko's board and stuff she still has some black dye remaining on her hair, so it all likely happens very rapid fire. But also also I think SOME kind of timeskip is bound to happen (which is not unheard it, see: act 1 and act 2 in season 1), because all that cult around Jinx and those murals (pretty sure there was also a statue in one of the teasers) will not spring up overnight. Anyway, we'll see very soon, it's all just theorizing either way. Arcane trailers were always good at hiding the real timeline and reasons of things happening.

[@otto1449]

10:00 Sevika still doesn't have to like Jinx to follow her. Up until now, her actions have never really been dependent on what she actually likes, apart from smoking. She is a character who does everything for the cause which she sees as the goal of the Undercity: the freedom, independence and self-reliance of the nation of Zaun. It doesn't matter to her if a Vander, Silco or a Jinx is at the head of this movement as long as this head figure pursues their vision. However, she herself is not a visionary like Vander, Silco or Jinx, which is why it is almost in her nature to submit herself to them as their right-hand "man", at which she is definitely one of the best I have ever seen. As long as she serves under a visionary, she ensures maximum productivity of the movement. I think she's my favorite character simply because of how unusual it is that a character who in other stories is nothing more than the extended arm of the big bad boss is so fleshed out and well written here. Jinx reflects the spiritual state of the Undercity while Sevika is the physical embodiment and I think that's pretty damn awesome.

The prevailing theory that I believe is that early (either before ep 1, or at the end of the first 3 ep arc) in season 2, we deal with the fallout of Jinx’s attack to end season 1 and it hits Vi hard. She turns angry, goes underground into the pit fighting stuff, and that’s the early status quo (with a time jump involved) in season 2. The story progresses over the course of the season with Vi gradually being forced out of hiding/inaction to reconnect and reconcile with Caitlyn and join the fight on the side of the enforcers because she has finally recognized that Jinx has to be stopped

18:19 we saw this shot in s1, it's the guy who saved Jayce as a kid, but this time with the hexcore instead of the rune stone thing he used originally

[@NerdBird-uj2bo]

I love watching this after season 2 and seeing everything pan out.

[@eternal7912]

If you look closely at that last shot of Jinx blowing up, you can see she's firing fishbones at Vi, but it blows up in her hands. Either its a malfunction, or the shot we see of Cait using her hextech rifle in the last trailer is her shooting Fishbones so Jinx doesn't kill Vi. My bet, is that's the finale of Act 1, which leads to Vi thinking Jinx is dead, and having a falling out with Cait. Act 2 is where Vi gets her goth pit fighter look. And Act 3 will be when she gets that last look and teams back up with Cait. Also it seems like Jinx, Vi, Cait, and Ekko will all team up to fight Ambessa, which is why you see Ekko with a pink X on his chest. That said, the trailers for season 1 were quite misleading, so I guarantee things aren't going to play out quite how we expect them to.

THE SEVICUT CAUGHT ME OFF-GUARD AND I STARTED LAUGHING SO MUCH

[@Kyoril]

Elijah. "okay. I am going to do a complete watch through. Then retrace back and pause to discuss at relevant points." 3 seconds later... Proceeds to pause and discuss every other frame...

[@spectra-inventa]

The things hanging around Jinx are her dolls of Milo and Clagger.

[@bugglet]

hey Elijah! just wanted let you know that the child being carried away isn't powder! it looks like the child we see standing next to her in the teaser trailer, right before we see sevika! So this must be a new character

[@novabiggs5081]

Now, she needs to react to the new Vi clip they released for Geeked Week.

[@gilberttrancy7300]

NOT THE SEVICUT😂😂😂

[@MarxistMomentum]

2-minute Arcane trailer for Elijah = 20 minute reaction video. 😅

[@Nyx__]

The instant trauma face when you pressed play. LMAOOOO This show is a drug fr

[@troikas3353]

unrelated tot he trailer but since you asked; Emo and Goth are both different music subgenres and subcultures that originated from different parts of 1970's Punk Rock. Punk itself is a Leftist political subculture that really took root in reaction to Margret Thatcher's aggressively conservative UK government in the late 70's and 80's. Goth specifically also has a long history of ties to the Queer community as part of its foundation was a rejection of conservative's definition of what sexual identities were socially acceptable. Examples of the musical differences are; The Clash are classic Punk Rock, Siouxsie and the Banshees or The Cure are Goth and My Chemical Romance or Jimmy Eat World are Emo.

[@ellysondanielc.romero7476]

In my theory: when Jinx exploded, Ekko will use the Z-drive to reverse time and possibly try to save her.

[@artloveranimation]

I think the black shadow with glowing eyes is a vision of Silco, like his silhouette is either looming over Jinx or maybe even Vi?

[@noecruz3565]

When I saw the trailer I was speechless, JUST WITH MY HEART IN MY THROAT at how epic the trailer was, seriously. Never before in my entire life have I been as emotional as ARCANE was.

[@Moompl]

18:20 that’s the same guy who helped Jayce in episode 2 19:12 That’s actually Jayce, we know bc that crystal is the same one on the wrist band that he wore. It likely got fused to his skin in the bombing. We can also compare the red stripe on the pants and it lines up with Jayce’s outfit from last season.

[@davidkoudelka10]

Maybe Goth Vi happens because she’s undercover and trying to get into in a fight ring? Because when Vi hope on Ekko’s hoverboard her hair still has streaks of black in it. I think it will be in one of the last episodes.

[@Taj_SAS]

She fights the enforcers at 16:33 and that looks exciting. Does this mean there will be a war between Piltover and Noxus?

[@jeremy1860]

The first season set such a high bar that I am terrified that, even if this second season is good, it'll feel like a downgrade if it isn't at least as amazing as what came before :(

[@nini-o7s]

I miss watching your arcane reactions, can’t wait for November 😩

[@anqeliquex]

i’m SOSOSO excited. and the fact that ashnikko is doing the music for this season GODDD im so excited 🫶🏼🫶🏼

[@audreydoyle5268]

Right?! I've been listening to Paint The Town Blue on repeat within minutes of it coming out

[@brunnogomes5821]

Jinx is gonna make Piltover taste the rainbow, motherf... ✊️🏳️‍🌈

[@shadow_is_weird8991]

Sorry for being *that* person but I WAS SO HAPPY WHEN STRAY KIDS HAD A SONG IN THIS SHOW BC I LOVE THEM SO MUCHHHHH!!!!

[@raine_storm_x]

YES OMG !!!! LIKE TWO OF MY WORLDS COLLIDED 😁😁😁

[@Taj_SAS]

The way Zaun didn't give a fu*k about Silco Silco didn't help Zaun like he thought he was

[@benjamminleft]

He was a tyrant, they were loyal out of fear.

[@fangirling3]

November seems so close and yet, so far

[@zachdixon413]

I’ve seen what I’m about to say in the comments as well, but Ekko means just as much to Vi as Caitlyn and Jinx. I do agree that something happening to one of those 3 might be what triggers that wardrobe, emotional change we see.

[@kaylahere6789]

I miss ur arcane reactions so much 😭

[@yeoldehotdog306]

I loved the look of Jinx's possible new look, with the hood, I stared at it for ages picking out the little design choices; but she has a mechanical middle finger AND she's cut her hair, you can see the remnant ls of it under her hood.

[@greywarden5513]

Crop top Ekko with his eight pack hanging out and his back length hair(in a bun)?! Can already fed the thirst…

[@marilynbrammer8670]

I was waiting for your reaction! I think Vi breaks because she realizes Powder is gone. And I think in a moment of grief and anger, Caitlyn gives her an ultimatum. Without the two of them in her life she feels she has nothing left so she gets a bit lost. I don’t want to see bad Cait. I’m nervous about it. I do think in the third act Cait and Vi will come to their senses and come back together to do the right thing.

[@audreydoyle5268]

Cait is seriously giving deranged Kuvira vibes

[@thesushimaker0.0]

Recommendation!: You *absolutely have* to watch the *Maze Runner* movies! Trust me, these films will completely blow your mind. From the very first scene, you’re dropped into this intense, mysterious world where a group of teens wake up in the middle of a giant, ever-changing maze, and none of them know why they’re there. It’s not just a simple escape story-there’s danger at every turn, especially with these terrifying creatures called Grievers that come out at night. The maze itself is like a giant puzzle that they’re constantly trying to figure out, and every time they think they’re close, something crazy happens that throws them off. The suspense will keep you on the edge of your seat the entire time because you never know what’s going to happen next, and just when you think you’ve figured it out, there’s a massive twist that’ll leave you shocked. What really makes *Maze Runner* special, though, are the characters. They feel so real and relatable, and you get so attached to them as they work together to survive and escape. You’ll be rooting for Thomas, the main character, from the moment he shows up because he’s brave, smart, and determined, even when everything is falling apart around him. The friendships between the characters are so powerful, and you can really feel their bond as they face impossible challenges together. There are moments that will make you laugh, cry, and hold your breath because the stakes are *so* high. But it's not just all heart and emotions-the action is *insane*. The chase scenes, the battles with the Grievers, and the heart-pounding moments where they try to escape the maze are so well done, it feels like you're right there with them. The special effects are amazing, and the whole world of the maze is like nothing you’ve ever seen before. Plus, the mystery behind who put them in the maze and why is so gripping-you’ll be dying to know the truth. And when the twists are finally revealed, they will *blow your mind*. If you love movies that are packed with action, suspense, mystery, and characters you can really connect with, then *Maze Runner* is perfect for you. It’s like *The Hunger Games* and *Divergent*, but with even more heart-pounding tension and surprising twists. Once you start the first movie, you’ll be hooked and want to binge-watch the entire trilogy because every film builds on the last one in such an epic way. You won’t be able to stop talking about it after you watch it. Seriously, these movies are *must-see* for anyone who loves adventure, survival stories, and mind-blowing mysteries!

[@Nameless00Soul]

I love your breakdown here. Also gonna need a reaction to the new pitfighter vi trailer, pleeease!

[@btgardener39]

Pretty sure you're definitely going to appreciate THE ART of Vi in the new "Nothing to Lose" short clip. 🤩

[@Taj_SAS]

I'm glad you're probably the only person who accepts that Vi admits that Jinx her sister is gone at 6:51, not like some people who say that Vi is lying to Caitlyn Let's be real guys, Jinx has gone too far in her actions and has caused a war.

[@fishleaf1093]

Official Season 2 clip out, starring Vi.

[@shadycactus7896]

9:40 FYI, Vi is topless in this scene 😳

[@blazingstorm9351]

Are you talking about Vi in the pits?

[@mkraulis]

I think the Firelights will give Jinx a safe place to hide from the Chem-Barons. That is why Ekko's vest is painted, just a guess.
