Regarding Jinx and Vi as sisters, Arcane was the first time we got official confirmation of it, but it was very strongly implied in the voice line interactions in the game and story descriptions prior to Arcane that everyone "knew" they were sisters.
@redroseibarahime87552 жыл бұрын
that's true. We got official confirmation of the sisterhood finally in 2019 when they were officially announcing Arcane. There was a slip up by an employee in 2015 in an interview but it was strongly denied at that time. But in fact, they planned the whole origin story of the 2 sisters from the start- they just didn't reveal their real connection- instead we were stuck with the presentation of them being somewhat related to each other because they are like cat and mouse and the GEt Jinxed video. They just saved the good parts of the story for the series because it would be boring if the players already knew the whole plot like other videogame adaptations do it. They even rewrote some parts for it because the original lore doesn't match exactly the first ACT. This is in fact the strong part about Arcane and the League lore universe. They mostly never animate things that are already told in a trailer but which are about to be told(--> go watch "The Call" for the best example - there, you can also see how small of a slice Arcane actually is in Runeterra). That's why I highly doubt at this point that we will see Urgot fighting Caitlyn and Vi in the series (at least not in S2) because this was already shown in the "Warriors" cinematic. BUT if Arcane continues to be such a big hit maybe they want to tell the whole story about Piltover & Zaun regardless of that it has already been teased - after all, it is just a small scene in a cinematic- the story behind that was not elaborated in detail until now. . Here is a little making of Arcane - the developers speak about the process of making Arcane with some parts from the developers diary- if you are interested: global.gotomeeting.com/join/775625029

So even if Jayce for example doesn't feel like in the game in S1 this may be because his deveopment goes further in S2 -same for Victor and the other characters.

The trailers that they dropped for Arcane confirmed that they are sisters.

First, the wild rift trailer is 100% more light hearted but that is also because its a non-canon trailer for a new game they released and a lot of the other champions in that trailer are much more light hearted then they are in the lore (you just didn't notice because you have no baseline for them as opposed to jinx). As for the get jinxed trailer, it was released around 7 years ago and riot has said that arcane has been in development in some form for 8 years, so they probably had some idea as to what they were doing with her when they made the music video. Is this your first exposure to the actual gameplay of league? This gameplay footage and advice is a bit outdated, but is still good. In case you didn't know, league is constantly updated with not only new champions but graphics updates, new items, and even entirely new game mechanics. The little guys are minions that push towers for you, or if you kill your opponents minions you get gold and experience to level up and buy items. LoL is a game with a very high skill floor to get started, so yes there is a lot going on it it, but I think you guys kept up really well. I think it is really cool how you associated her gameplay to her personality in arcane (on another note, vi is indeed a tank and takes the hits for other people XD). Finally, as for if vi and jinx are sisters in lol, is a strong sort of. There are a bunch of voice lines from both them and other champions hinting that they are sisters, but we never had a solid piece of lore/story saying that they were sisters (or I could be wrong. if so, lore nerds correct me) I also want to throw out some suggestions for future stuff. Lol just came out with a new cinematic that is really good, so I would suggest you guys react to it. I would also suggest that if you love the lore of LoL as much as I do, the short stories that riot puts out are amazing and worth a read (even if you don't react to it). Putting these two suggestions together, the new cinematic actually depicts parts of some of riots newer short stories, so I had a lot of fun watching the cinematic, then going back to read the short stories. if you want, I can provide the exact short stories the cinematic depicts. Even if you are not interested in the shorts, watch the cinematic. It is epic XD Hope I helped a little bit, and I look forward to your next reaction and your next arcane episode.

I had to come to compliment this legendary wall of explanation. Also would like to add, the moba genre that league belongs to flowered from DotA; a mod for Warcraft 3 Frozen Throne which was, at least partially, developed by the legendary 'Icefrog'. Gameplay is structured the same, as a 5v5 with creeps (minions of DotA). It was incredibly popular, but eventually the devs decided they wanted to do more with the DotA concept. Icefrog was involved in the development of DotA2 and others went on to make League of Legends. And like that, a whole genre was born, off the passion of a bunch of nerds.

The version of Jinx in the game (and in trailers prior to Arcane) is much more funny and fun-loving than the tragic version we see in Arcane. And I don't think they had any idea that Jinx and Vi would eventually be sisters. Also, back before Riot became a major media outlet creating series and pop music, and LoL was just one of many MOBA games, the female characters were much more one-dimensional (and had a lot less clothes on). Hard to believe that the "Get Jinxed" video was done by the same studio that eventually became Studio Fortiche and went on to create Arcane.

Arcane changes all the characters to the point that they are more like alternative versions of themselves instead of the same one. Arcane improved every character by a lot, so Jinx is shown more serious instead of the fun crazy self of her in-game version. You should have reacted to "Welcome Aboard" instead of the spotlight. Arcane is the first time where it was officially said that they where sisters, before it was just theory.
@sophocles20832 жыл бұрын
Heavy Arcane spoilers below: The reason she's less unhinged in arcane is because her transition hasn't finished completely. Throughout the show we see her protest the voices in her head, which we can assume cause a fair bit of suffering within her. At the ending though, we see her embrace the voices that have tormented her for years, and she let's go of any semblance of Powder and by extension restraint and guilt within her. She becomes a manic sociopath with the chaotic and impulsive tendencies of an 8 year old, which is around the time she suffered her life scarring trauma, because trauma often causes such developmental blocks as a defense mechanism since people can't accept what happened, and rather stay in the mental state before the traumatizing experience.

Quick simple explanation. The 1st trailer was to promote the launch of League of Legends for mobile, Jinx was not the focus, that trailer never really happens. The second trailer was to promote the launch of Jinx when she 1st came to the game(PC), and even tough the events here never happen, the city, and everything related to Jinx do exists or connects to the universe. The third trailer was just a video explaining the champion(Jinx) to the game community. Something that might be worth listening to are the voice lines for the champions, there are multiple of them and are all available at "SkinSpotlights" channel (Jinx is from piltovel/zaun, so, something related to piltover/zaun might have her involved). The theme songs for such champions are also cool, mainly "Vi champion theme", they also have the Original design in the background for the champions, which is cool to see the differences. The theme + Original design are available at League of Legends original channel.

Alright, got a couple of things to say, (sorry for the essay). That champion spotlight was before the general game visual update that happened a few years ago, so league doesn't look like that anymore, looks WAY better, smoother, far more modern. - I'll give a simple/GENERAL overview to untangle the gameplay clips. It's a 5 v 5 game on a huge map divided diagonally, top left to bottom right. There are several roles a champ can be. There are two types of damage: physical and magic. Each champ has their basic 'auto-attack' and unique abilities. Positions you can choose in game: Toplaner, 2 Botlaners, Midlaner, and Jungler. - You earn gold for killing any enemy unit. Each champion is either ranged or melee (Jinx would be ranged*). There are three general lanes, middle, top and bot lane. Everywhere else is the jungle. At the two opposite ends are each team's base. The goal is, simply, to destroy the enemy base. - Those little guys are 'Minions', theyre generated by your base and act independently. You farm (kill) enemy minions (and enemy Champions) earning gold. There are other monsters in the jungle that are worth more gold (a position is 'Jungler' they roam the jungle killing monsters for gold. Gold is to buy items in game, to get stronger to be able to help your team). - Roles, some champions can occupy multiple roles - the terms below are common over many games: "Mage" (magic damage dealers) "Assassin" (physical or magic damage dealers, very mobile - high burst of damage) "Fighter/Bruiser" (sustained damage - usually a front line champion) "Tank" (absorb a significant amount of enemy damage, engage enemy team - front line champion) "Support" (champ that helps other champs, healing, shielding, keeping enemies away, stuns...etc) "Marksman/ADC" (i.e. Jinx - Physical damage dealer, delivers high amount of sustained damage. "Attack Damage Carry" - i.e. if they're 'fed' enough enemies (and earn a lot of gold) buy items in game to increase damage 'carrying' the game for the team) This is VERY GENERALLY how the game works. It does have a bit of a steep learning curve. But very addictive once you know how it works haha

so I just want to make things straight, there was an event when Arcane was released which is RiotxArcane, where it explains what happened on the Worlds ( Arcane was released around the World competition or after). Arcane and the Lol game and Wild rift is a multiverse just like what happened in What if or Loki. in the core universe it was never been mention that Jinx relation to Vi until a story in LOR where Jinx is confirmed to be Vi little sister but such as her background. I think the game universe will be so different than arcane, such as how she might be never be traumatized before or others (there are a lot different background stories on all characters). so yeah that's why you might felt that Jinx is so different between trailers.

Ah okay. So Arcane is a different multiverse than the game. That works and is a way for them to keep them separate and not be tied down to keep stuff in Arcane that works in the game but might not work for story telling 🙂

The evolution of Jinx as a character concept early on, comes mainly from the expanded lore of her new game skins: the Odissey Jinx one is "guardians of the galaxy-esque" themed, in which Jinx is portrayed to be a quirky mechanic with an attraction to explosions and bad guys, while another skin is Star Guardian Jinx, a "sailor moon-esque" themed skin in which she is portrayed as a cocky, magical girl loner with a troubled past and a heart of gold. All together they lightened up the tone of Jinx while also adding to her complexity, making her a very fun character.

To answer your questions about the Vi/Jinx sisterhood, that was actually a fan theory that was never confirmed until Arcane. Also Jinx was released for League of Legends on October 10th, 2013.

So the first trailer - at the point of League of Legends gameplay, there are no real "good" and "bad" because of the way the matches run and the teams are picked. Any team can pick any combination of characters. League is like the "all stars" or "olympic games" for all of Runeterra. Champions are "invited" to play in these games. So you can have instances where Vi, Jinx and Cait are on the same team (not ideal based on how teams are normally built, but it's been done lol). So while watching these scenematics, keep that in mind - any group of people you see interacting one way you will mostly definitely see again but in a completely different way in either the same video or a different one.

The first video is Wild Rift, much like Tales of Runeterra, the other league game - it's pretty light hearted. Granted with Arcane they made Jinx, and a lot of the characters in Arcane are more serious and "realistic" then sort of goofy personalities with quirks in their original states - also Jinx is a fairly old character now in League and I really feel that the Arcane Jinx is more of the now intended integration of her personality and back ground since she has stepped away from the whole "Harley Quinn" vibe in which I'm sure she was originally inspired by. I can't imagine how odd it was to watch gameplay breakdown of Jinx in League of Legends - can't be very exciting unless you actually play the game lol. I would recommend if doing a bundle of videos on a character definitely skip that unless you have an interest in learning about the game itself, though since Arcane does typically utilize each characters abilities from League of Legends in might make a fun experiment to try and point them when they were used in Arcane.

This is from a LoL era in which lore was an afterthought. As you could see, LoL is not a narrative driven game, so lore was never on the forefront. Arcane comes from a change in philosophy within riot games, to try and make a more cohesive universe, probably because of plans to move forward more games and move into other kinds of media. I love what Arcane brought to the table but I can't help to feel a little nostalgic watching the old trailers.

Yes they "change" some story things to make Arcane, but don't worry they made a great job doing all make sense. The story of this champion back there when was released were too diferent, because the story hints at Jinx had a lost sister, but the hints were different meaning, she was more a insane criminal with an obsession on Vi and Caitlyn and seems that her sister were another character from LoL, the time passed and Riot games started to change and fix a lot of storylines when suddenly Arcane appear and they confirmed that Jinx sister is Vi.

The Vi/Jinx thing was HINTED at being sisters, and perhaps explicitly stated in places. BUT Arcane was really the big open CLEAR revelation that they were sisters. Similarly, there have been many references in game to Vi and Caitlyn being partners . . . but there were only hints of them being "partners", which again, the show is building on. Similarly, we know that Jayce and Viktor are going to part ways, but how and when, and what the exact details are has never been elaborated upon. "Ekko: Seconds" fills out Ekko's story in a similar way that "Get Jinxed" kinda filled out a bit of Jinx's story. There are other hints about in-game characters: Mel's family may be running afoul of Swain, a Noxian general. We may have glimpsed Warwick and had his backstory fleshed out more than we want. (likely coming in Season 2) Riot's done SUCH a good job building onto their long-standing lore without doing too much "nuke and pave" on the previous storylines. Glad you're starting to find how much detail they've put into it! Thanks for the reaction.

@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames The game is becoming faster, since almost most of these new champions added to game everyone of them has leap dash or somekind of other way of mobility, items become progressively better and same with runes, all this stacks to bigger damage and quicker game, which makes killing enemies and pushing to the enemy base faster, the average game is now around 25 minutes, of course you rarely you still meet those 45 minute matches though teams need to be very well balanced to get this kind of result.

@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames and if you think Jinx was well made because her development respects her gameplay, let's take a look at the others : - Jayce is a high damage range champion that can switch to a even higher damage melee weapon. His gameplay needs a lot of reflection but still has a very impulsive style. - Viktor is a mage who casts powerful spells he created himself using something that look like "forbidden" technology. - Vi is a bruiser. She has all the skills you need to engage and win a close-combat fight using her fists. The more she stays in a fight, the harder she hits you. - Caitlyn is a real sniper, she uses her range to harass and takedown opponents. She has a role similar to Jinx, but her gameplay is more strategic as she can set up traps. - Heimerdinger is a mage who places turrets, he relies a lot on the safety of those. He is very strong if he manages to take a position and less powerful if you manage to force him to move. Annnnd Warwick is... about to come :D
