Eventually die? yes. Obvious that Jinx would be the death of him instead? NOPE.....

[@Somecrazydude07]

The parallels are really beautiful in this series for both Vander and Silco having sacrifice themselves for both Vi and Jinx. Vander with taking the fall for their crimes, fighting a shimmer husk and consuming it to save Vi from an exploding building. Silco ultimately putting aside his dream of a Zaun nation to protect Jinx, even going as far to kill Vi because Jinx couldn't cope with Vi triggering her trauma or worse, turning her back into something less than "perfect". Rather nice touch to have both say their goodbye to their respective fathers figures.

The moment Silco died, Jinx's voices in her head died too. Probably the most terrifying part of Jinx's rampage is that she now knows exactly what she's doing...

[@shadyatem]

Im glad I’m not the only one who noticed that, after Silco died, it was like she finally had perfect clarity. She knows exactly who she is now. Jinx

[@sarithaharidas4358]

Yes even I thought about it like jinx was clearly aware in last ep as to what she is now I don't know if it's the shimmer effect or when she hears or misunderstands some part of silco speaking in front of vander statue but I'm atleast satisfied that she's aware now. but really felt bad that the person who truly accepted her for who she is now even though silco was an evil in many ways but at last his only thing was that his true love for jinx as daughter 😭I'm just thinking what will happen or how jinx will be in season 2 because she lost the person who loved the most I plz don't want her to be alone man🤞I somehow know that jinx still loves vi but she doesn't want to get close to her as before when she was powder because jinx knows that she's changed in her life so what I feel is like in season 2 just assumption vi still tries or goes to find her sister and wants to be with her but jinx may avoid it or just stops vi from getting close to her. even though this shows season continues I wish nothing but the best for jinx and hope both the sisters reunite even though they both have changed in their own ways I hope they will fully get along.

[@MycoArsenic39]

Even in death, he never blamed/hated Jinx. He really did genuinely loved her as a daughter, and accepted and supported her to the end. Silco was loyal to her as she was loyal to him. His last words were, “Don’t cry. You’re perfect,” so that way she doesn’t carry anymore guilt than she already has for being who she is, a Jinx. :( 🥺 Despite being a villain and manipulating Jinx for his own goals, Silco is a very complicated character. His relationship with Jinx is loving, complicated, but also quite toxic, because he is enabling her chaotic behavior and personality, not helping her with her trauma and PTSD. But he's not a parent, he never had kids, plus he's a kingpin and a criminal. Also, he's sees a bit of himself in Powder in Act 1, someone who was betrayed by the person they care about (Vander and Silco/Vi and Powder). But in the end, he did genuinely love Jinx as a daughter, and would rather let his dreams of having his Nation of Zaun have it's independence to be crushed than giving his daughter up to the authorities. He accepted her for who she is, something that Vi couldn't do (which is understandable because she wants Powder back, not Jinx). But overall, Silco is my favorite villain/character in this series. I both hate and love this two-face man. I love how Riot added so much complexity to their characters, not making the villains into cliches, even the minor characters. I cannot wait for season 2. :)

[@CCVelcro]

Silco was unironically a really good father figure, sacrificing his chance at a nation that he wanted for Jynx, giving her advice, caring for her.

It very much seems silco did not want a zaum nation without jinx at his side to watch it rise

[@Hounlaiga]

Ironically, Silco became what he hated about Vander. Giving up on his dream for the sake of his daughters.

[@jasonwilkins1969]

Kinda reminds me of Mayor Wilkins from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. A villain who unexpectedly is a great father figure to the villain whom he has come to see as a child of his. In rewatching the third episode, it becomes pretty clear that for all Vi says about Silco corrupting Powder and creating Jinx, it is clear that Jinx was born the moment Powder was abandoned by Vi. Edit - after looking at all of it again, he was a terrible father figure. I think I was just so relieved he wasn't grooming her for a sexual relationship that I gave him way too much credit for his abusive treatment. Thanks for pointing out that I was wrong everyone.

[@jasonwilkins1969]

@@Hounlaiga I think he finally understood what Vander meant when he said it wasn't worth it. Vander said to Vi, "how much are you willing to give up to go after the top-siders...Powder for instance". Silco realized how much his nation would cost and decided his daughter was not worth it and would rather die (either at Jinx's hands or his own people) or give up on the dream (and let the peace fall apart).

[@vanmeerbeeckglenn]

''Don't cry, you're perfect'' Silco talks about the last episode, not about Jinx

[@PokerPenguini]

She repeatedly said "Im sorry" like she did when she was a kid. In many ways, this was the same situation, she fucked up. But instead of being met with hate that vi showed back then. She was met with something that was more brutal. She was met with love. "Dont cry. Your perfect." She probably then realized, that Vi wasnt the person she could stand by. Knowing that there was someone out there who still loved her unconditionally. That it was actually possible to 'love a jinx'... It probably put alot of things into perspective for her. Perhaps the love was all she needed in the end, she realized that Vi wasn't the person she could find it from. Its a romantic idea, but wouldn't have worked out in the end, she decided... not like this, not how they were now.

[@antoine121]

I mean Vii had her chance on the bridge to get to Jinx and she decided to help Kait instead. And even before Jinx shoots at the counsel Vii still said nothing to her. Vii is not showing the love that she needs to.

No but this scene makes you realize how unfair this poor girl's whole story is: Jinx/Powder was unloved and unappreciated by literally everyone, at some point those who did either died or gave up on her... except for Vi and Silco. And, tragic irony, THEY are the one that fail her and ruin the most. Both genuinely love and care for Powder/Jinx, but they have blinders on. Silco saw Jinx in Powder and loved the chaos he saw in her, but that (plus the fact that he's very messed up himself) is why he couldn't give her the emotional and psychological support she needed. He made her feel needed and appreciated as long as her "weaker" and more sensitive side didn't come out. Instead of telling her to fight her demons he told her to endorse them, which is why their relationship is actually very very toxic, even if the feelings at the bottom of it are genuine. Vi was what Powder needed for all these years. Someone who wanted her to fight against her trauma and not drawn herself in it. But differently from Silco, Vi has so much trouble acknowledging and most importantly understanding and accepting Jinx and how that's her sister's reality now. Neither of them accepts that Powder and Jinx coexist in the same person. She is the only one who knows, as well as she knows that these two, each with their own faults, are the only one who still love her. That's why she couldn't let go of either of them for so long. And this scene does such a good job showing this: Silco encouraging Jinx to kill and Vi trying to help her, but ending up making things worse because she doesn't know how her sister's mind works and since Silco trying to stop what he knows is coming. And Silco finally giving in to his softer side to let his kid know to not let his death affect her the way her family's did; Vi being respectfully silent as she understands and sees how Jinx is this unrepairably damaged fraction of her sister she left behind, with the overall knowledge that, like it or not, now it's too late go back for Powder. If she wants her sister, Jinx is what's waiting for her.

[@madtitan0825]

I appreciate Silco’s development into a caring father to Jinx, but one of the reasons Powder becomes Jinx is cuz he spoiled her too much, every time Jinx messed up he convinced her and himself that she’s not the problem, cuz of him she never learn from her mistakes even when she accidentally killed him, in a way he probably afraid that she can’t take criticism and run away that’s why he spoiled him so much in these years

[@kyziahsmith542]

The fact that Silco said to do not listen to her means that he knows how to stop triggering her trauma more than Vi, tbh if she didn't mentioned them and Jinx listened to Silco, Jinx wouldn't probably had accidentally killed him😭

@@josend It could be argued that she was aiming for Silco, because when the gun "clicks" at the very last second when Silco is holding it, we see Jinx instantly snap her head towards the sound.

[@xxstar-bluesxx]

In truth. Vi was never helping Jinx, not even for her mental health. Even if she tries to fix her, Caitlyn is right, she's too far gone. She wanted to run away from the padt because of how much she was beaten up from it. Tbat's why Silco tried to shut Vi up. He's not fully evil. He cares for Jinx, even tried to bring her back alive. Silco was trying to make money too even to upgrade Zaun, it was still Piltover's fault for not checking them up or helping the citizens of Zaun either. So Silco has to run on to things even taking care of Jinx for 10 years.

Vi really did try to help her sister, but she couldn't possibly understand who Jinx had become, how broken she is, how changed she is. All she manages to do is trigger her trauma, trying to get the old Powder back. And so despite all good intentions and her love, she falls short. The distance between them is simply too great for reconciliation.

​@@tomsrudzitis4942 I'm not LOL fan so I have no idea what will happend next but at this moment it looks like Zaun losted only sensible leader. I like Jinx but she can't be a boss nor Sevica (even if I like her too). Jinx is too crazy, chaotic and concerned around herself. Sevica is not powerful enough. Only Silco had head for business, plans, connections, vision, patience and intelligence to put this plan in real. And as much as I like Jinx not everything have to revolves around her, she went mad far before it happends (the last operation also helped). So I really hope it wasn't Silco's last breath. He was constantly taking shimmer's doses and it looks like he was resistant to poisonous gas, so, perhaps, he was strong enough to survived (and what we saw was only loss of consciousness, not death in fact... one of guy she shooted before survied and end up in prison). If Jinx could be rescued after bomb blast... Singned made more craizest things than that :))

All the memories and trama jinx went thru.. Jesus. Vi didn’t want jinx, she only wanted powder. Vi and mylo created jinx. Jinx just wanted to help, and she got punished and left. Let’s see it from jinx eyes anf silco. They both thought vi left her for dead. Imagine being hit anf left by ur own sister, even hearing that little “ur just a jinx.” Words last more than you think. Silco was there for her and raised her. From the moment she jumped into his arms, they were father and daughter. And with all the trama of seeing ur friends and family dead. That haunts even sane people. Vander showing up as his last form when he died, shows how much it does. And silco was there for her and listened, he never even tried to hurt or hit her.

It's interesting to see the still of her when she first meets Silco as a child and the one here where he dies. The first one, the lighting is very warm, almost inviting (if you don't know the context) and both characters are veritably bathed in it. In the second one, though, the lighting is very cold and both she and Silco are in shadow where even that cold lighting can't reach them. The first scene is also very cluttered in the background whereas the second is very empty on the side of it that Jinx is on. There's really nothing except a few splotches of pink paint, it very much conveys a sense of isolation that the first scene does not. I may not be a lighting artist, but I love how it can be used to tell a story.

[@berry9747]

Jinx didnt mean to kill Silco. You could see that when Vi was bringing up each of their families names. The monsters slowly get bigger and bigger, Jinx told Vi to stop but she didnt, As the monters were like 10x bigger then her she felt helpless and dropped to the ground. Silco saw how much pain Jinx was in thats why he was struggling out of the chair telling Vi to shut up and not listen to her. Jinx ment to shoot the monsters around her and not Silco.

[@Jassiij27]

I know a lot of people judge Silco parenting skills based on what he's done on the show and yes he has the loving her unconditionally part down but he wasn't a completely good parent. People get on Vi saying she couldn't accept Jinx without thinking about how Silco couldn't accept Powder. No one acknowledges how Jinx is now compared to what she was under Vi's care. When Jinx was with Vi she was a child so there wasn't a lot she could do but Vi did her best to teach her, protect her, never put her in dangerous situations, encouraged her, and wanted better for her. Vi kept her grounded and mentally stable with the only time she triggered her was when Vi told her she wasn't ready. The only problem was Mylo who as we see made her feel less than what she was. Silco gave her a home and cared for her but look at what she became over the years. A child like Powder doesn't grow into Jinx unless she saw events she shouldn't had seen or did things she shouldn't had done for her age. Powder must've went through a lot of traumatic experiences also he never got her help for her problem, she shouldn't be harassed by Mylo when she fails or is in a fit of anger. He turned her into what he wanted her to be. If he done things like Vi Powder would still be Jinx but most likely Jinx will just be a persona that helps her survive and not who she is. She wouldn't had tried to kill herself along with Ekko who saved her by kicking the bomb away. Because of Silco she's alive but now she's insane. In my opinion Vi isn't perfect but she's better for her than Silco is.

[@maryelitherrera5993]

I'm still trying to understand why she shot in Silco's direction. I know she didn't want to kill him, but I still don't get it, was it because she was actually trying to shoot the voices? Or was it because she noticed Silco tried to shoot Vi and she just reacted?

@@itsjustvin7630 you know I’m glad your said that, cause I was also wondering the same thing, Heimerdinger is one of Pitlover’s founders and has been around for centuries, how the hell did he let the undercity become so poor and damaged? You’d think it would have been a problem to be addressed at some point. I hope we get more backstory on how both cities started. I’d like to know how they became so divided.

[@itsjustvin7630]

@@shadyatem thing is it fits his character. youre so focused on your past trauma, trying to prevent it but consequentially preventing positive possibilities in the pursuit of progress because of potential downfall that you lose sight on whats been going on around you. Heimerdinger is essentially the mega boomer. Which is why its shift in his development when he does visit Zaun and sees it with his own eyes and realizes that his earnestly genuine gestures arent enough to fix what has happened to it. And even moreso he met Echo, a child, who's showing and now teaching him things that he never thought of when it comes to progressing into a better world.

[@realpablosolis]

I just finished Arcane over 2 hours ago and mind fucked about it. Initially I had a thought Jinx was shooting at Vi also, which I was wrong. Anyways to cut my analysis of Jinx short. During shooting Silco in an attempt to save Vi, the Powder(Herself) that she was came out and instinctively shot at her adoptive father. Why did silco pick up the gun? No, it's not an attempt to shoot Jinx, which I thought and some others think too. It was to shoot Vi which is shown, Jinx is on the ground in a mental breakdown between the two telling yelling at her, for Powder or Jinx to come out on top, but then you know what happens. Reason why it was to really shoot Vi, well Silco is still strapped to the chair and can't really shoot Jinx while on the ground. As to shooting Vi? The reason is for her to stop her from taking him back to topside. Well, no. She doesn't know about the deal that was made between Silco and Jayce. So why? For him to stop Vi from making those delusions stop appearing in Jinx's mind, because Vi is the one that keeps triggering those manifestations in her mind. Silco knows all about why she's going through that, but one reason he never tried to help her was, because he's been using her for his own dream of having his own nation. To add more, once he saw Jinx on the ground in a mental breakdown by Vi's words (as to having mental expertise) and as a father tried protecting her in his own way tried to kill her sister. That's why I think this is the real reason. Vi, she has as many problems for Jinx's mental state, but not getting into that here. Well, some thought analysis, but a short one.

[@thesadseal2electricboogalo597]

Fun fact: if you didn't cry, you're lying through your teeth

[@futsurepolaris6304]

Surprised Silco didn’t go down the Bondrewd route.

[@n0bleonline222]

After Jinx shoots Silco, she's shown clearly in that triggered mindless instinctual state like in episode 4 on the ship. Then after a couple breaths you see the exact moment her brain kicks in to full awareness again and... instant regret. Jinx didn't chose to kill Silco, but in a triggered state she instinctually shot at the threat of the sound of the pin drop in Silco's gun. That's entirely the reason she then chooses the Jinx chair, yet again, she was a Jinx to her family. There is no Powder, Jinx situation there, nor is it a conscious decision. It's just tragedy. Once again, Powder unwittingly killed her family. But this time she killed someone who loved her perfectly. This is probably Jinx's breaking point. The moment she starts talking to her guns, especially with her favorite gun. 😭😭 Like the post I saw in someone's comment earlier: ( Jinx breaks my heart, more than usual, in her final scenes. There's such a sense of resignation and sadness to her; it's in her eyes, her expression, and her body language. I imagine that she's thinking that Mylo was right, all those years ago: She's a jinx. And if she's a jinx, she's going to be the worst bad luck Piltover has ever experienced. No truce. No negotiations. No peace. Jinx will show them all. Let it all burn, and chaos reign. War is coming... Thanks for the video. )

[@gameraider100]

Well, with Silco fighting for an independent Zaun and raising a chaotic daughter with a love for bombs and helps him ... Her being a "tool" is a given. She loves violence ... He wants freedom from Piltover. Beyond that though, Silco loved Jinx because she was just like him due to tragic pasts. He found a kindred spirit.

[@Hazbinhotelwolf]

I feel likes was vi falt because she keep telling things to jinx what hurt her and slico new that vi saying that to her it hurt jinx so he was trying to stop her and that why he pick up the gun to shot vi to stop her from hurting jinx and takeing her i away because he is scared of being alone again and the look on his fase when vi said you will never have to see him again his fase was like no plz don't leave me i dont what to be alone again. Jinx change his life he would give up his dream for her because she is more important than anything... Rip silco you will be, missed 😭

Does jinx or powder dead in the last episode of arcane? plsss,anybody answer this, srsly i don't understand the last scene of episode 9😫

[@noxiouskunk7069]

Both Silco and Jinx had painful and tragic pasts. Silco was going to shoot and kill Vi to protect Jinx from Vi bringing back any painful memories, Vi’s pleads with Jinx got through to Powder for an instant and in this Instant, Powder turned on Silco and shot him dead. Powder protected Vi but this devastated Jinx as Silco was like a father to her. In the end, Jinx is who she chooses to be! Possibly to honor her father figure Silco.

How is Silco a good father figure? The dude fed her negative emotions and used her as a tool for years. Somehow in the minds of most Arcane viewers telling Jinx that she is perfect just nullifies the past, I guess lol. Silco was a very cool character dont get me wrong, however the dude is a terrible father figure and a terrible leader. Sure, loyalty blah blah blah. the dude gave up their nation for a psycopath. Grayson and Vander are the only 2 people that made any sense in that whole show.
