VIKTOR THE SAVIOUR?! - Arcane Season 2 Episode 2 "Watch It All Burn" REACTION!!

[@carronline1]

viktor on that jesus grindset

[@pabloc8808]

The Jesus arc is HERE

[@miklauzknaus]

Let us all join in the GLORIOUS EVOLUTION

[@n0bleonline222]

The reason Viktor left Jayce like that in episode 2 is because he saw the plans for the hextech weapon he made for Caitlyn when he took Sky's book off the table. Jayce promised Viktor that he would never make a hextech weapon again (a very subtle detail they show us from Viktor's perspective) Now, looking back to Episode 1, in the last scene where Jayce places the hextech crystal in Caitlyn's new weapon, we see a disturbed look on Viktor's face. It's like he felt it.

[@chelronin7843]

Would he even need to? Isnt he connected to hextech? He would just feel when its being used to harm others no? He also used his pwn life force to heal that dude, basically doing the complete opposite of what Jayce is doing with it.

[@randomsetofletters]

Nah. He would have left Jayce anyway. I doubt that in his current state he cares about any plans, just took Sky's notebook.

[@cdelio8716]

Not a spoiler but the fact that we always see Sevika gambling then she got the slot machine arm ties perfectly on her character

[@itsnotgayifitsclay]

Viktor he seems like in different league, like a legend.

[@nolangerrans6083]

“Jayce, join us and we can be a league of legends.”

[@chalkenjoyer]

Arcane Jesus

[@mx9226]

*Warwick shows up behind him* “I’m Arcane Jesus, you dull creature, and I will not-“ *gets slapped through a wall*

[@batmanvsjoker7725]

Jinx when seeing the wanted posters of herself: "They couldn't even get my eyes right!"

[@batmanvsjoker7725]

*Sevika when testing her new arm* Sevika: Really? Jinx: Don't you know me by now? 😏

[@Pengguie]

Biblically accurate Viktor

[@AsimovPetrank0]

viktor is gona split the sea to two next as arcane messiah

[@emmanuelmartindale8309]

Best reacting ive seen so far to this scene.. it instantly made viktor my fav character

[@jugokove]

this was my favorite of the 3!!

[@CaraPrezReacts]

All of them were just INSANE! But Ep 3 might take the top spot for us

[@OrdinaryCritic]

No it’s not

[@budaikax]

@@OrdinaryCritic it's not his favorite? lol how can you possibly know that

[@OrdinaryCritic]

@@budaikax because his favorite is different from what he says it is.

[@アキコ2003]

​@@CaraPrezReactsepisode 3 is my favorite just because of the vi and cait kiss, it was very well made and intimate

[@cartoonishidealism582]

Something I just realised after rewatching this episode I… don’t think Sevika knows that Jinx killed Silco?

[@maksforest8316]

Yeah, I also was thibking that. But at the same time, what if she heard it when Jinx was threatening Smitch?

[@debunkintheories922]

I don’t think so either. That’ll probably be bad later. Sevika will have to decide her loyalty to jinx, or silco.

[@raverdeath100]

does it matter? Sevika is loyal to "the cause"

[@AppleBaron]

​@@debunkintheories922She isn't loyal to either. She is only loyal to Zaun.

[@CapitanDePlai]

@@raverdeath100 exactly

[@rygornspectre7142]

24:00 the double heart belonged to the two headed Murkwolf.

[@prismprotector]

Did you guys notice he decides to leave cuz he sees the hex weapons blueprints? Jayce betrayed him TWICE. By not destroying the hexcore, and building weapons.

[@kenshi4296]

Viktor's story brings me to tears, of joy and sadness

[@rygornspectre7142]

23:56 Ok so they are sticking with Viktor pre-Arcane story were after a falling out with Jayce, he goes into Zaun/Undercity to help the unfortunate. He would help those in need by augmenting their deformities, disabilities, and even did brain surgery by modifying them with tech. He kinda became obsessed with that, calling it the "Glorious Evolution" which kinda became a whole religion. Viktor here seems to be moving towards the same thing but instead of plain tech, he is using magic-metal stuff. Another note: Over the years, Viktor's character in the lore was far from consitent. He's good guy one story, a bad guy in another, and mix between the two in most which was a mess so its nice to see him being written so well in Arcane.

[@JollibeenosHasYourCoordinates]

You guys have to watch the music video for "Get Jinxed" now, it's Jinx's theme song and it has appeared twice in the show now

[@rygornspectre7142]

8:35 Smeech is the same species as Heimerdinger, a Yordle, so he's immortal too. 12:33 The brambleback is actual creature you can find the game. Nicknamed Red Buff for when you kill you get a temporary buff. 15:28 Very well done reveal but also a bit of the Undercity's perspective of the Enforcers: Faceless, soulless monsters who appear through the Grey fog. 16:00 Claggor's goggles from last season.

[@LordHaragnok]

Not immortal enough after this episode lmao

[@rygornspectre7142]

@LordHaragnok eh, he'll walk it off.

[@AppleBaron]

Yordles can't die of old age, but I am pretty sure they can be killed. Like elves, basically.

[@rygornspectre7142]

@@AppleBaron I'm pretty sure if Yordles could be killed, Vex would have found it already.

[@reymaragagad3341]

Not really sure if smeech is a yordle or vastayan, but yordles are basically bundles of energy so if they are killed they just respawn back in Bandle City, not sure if they have issues about memories etc. after revival though. If Smeech is Vastayan then he a ded 🐁.

[@jackier3046]

I just want to appreciate the fact that whenever Viktor speaks, there’s like a distortion to it. In the beginning after he wakes up, when he says “What am I?” It’s first introduced. Whenever he first speaks to Jayce, it’s Viktor talking but then as he continues on leading up to the final scene, it’s the distorted voice taking over, basically meaning we’re losing Viktor (which if that’s the case I’m not ready for).

[@ansonyin3507]

If viktor say “time to evolve “ at the end it will be goosebumps and fit like the story of the game

[@Sirbartholomew]

I dont think the victor arc is going were we think. The arcane acts more like a disease, i think its just using victor by showing him visions of sky so that it can spread to more individuals. Hes probably not saving them like he thinks rather hes infecting them with the arcane. We already saw in season 1 that the hexcore can control victor when he tried to destroy it.

[@Oltahos]

I feel the same. Everyone thinking this is some savior story is in for a rude awakening soon.

[@Mirvra]

To be fair, it does set up for the Glorious Evolution perfectly though. Either the Arcane is actually bad and it's revealed later down the line, and Viktor goes full Glorious Evolution in rage to combat it. Or the Arcane is honestly good, but Jayce or someone else does something that ruins it or twists it, maybe even forcibly removing it from Viktor and in an act of desperation to return to this saviour-like state, Viktor ends up starting the Glorious Evolution.

[@pabloc8808]

Maybe the Arcane is simply trying to do its own form of good, by "fixing" everything it can fix, whether you want it or not. I don't think it is evil in the sense of having some grand scheme to consume and control everything, it's more like it tries too hard to help and it's too powerful to be stopped, so it does "good" against your will.

[@Sirbartholomew]

@@pabloc8808 im not saying it has a grand plan im just saying it behaves like an organism and does what it needs to to ensure its survival. And like any other organism it does that by spreading/multiplying. It’s not actively malicious or evil but if Jayce for example were to try and shut it down it would fight back.

[@RomanyGypsy92]

You're one of the few reactors who actually picked up on the slot machine fitting well with Sevika's gambler personality.

[@BaconAddict2]

You aren't the only one excited for the ✂✂

[@tonydanatop4912]

I kinda wanted to see more of smeech actually I adored how he moved

[@waxyhen21]

I was wondering why there were so few comments, then I realized i got here pretty early lol

[@CaraPrezReacts]

Early gang

[@waxyhen21]

​@@CaraPrezReactsthe amount of chills I get after rewatching the episode again, peak cinema

[@rodrigofrancogomez6919]

Great reaction !!

[@JollibeenosHasYourCoordinates]

Viktor becoming Hextech Jesus wasn't on my bingo cards, but I like it

[@ItsJinxNow]

I saw some videos where they were comparing Victor to Jesus🤣

[@emmanuelmartindale8309]

About the healing thing.. in the trailer that area hes at is more developed. so im guessing hes going to build something that will do faster healing... his intentions are good but is this thing really good? I feel its just showing sky to control him.

[@shanajeangedeon9060]

*knock knock* Hello, do you have time to talk about our lord and savior Viktor😃

[@LegitLord2000]

Viktor will either be God or Satan depending on if he gets corrupted and mind broken with his power. The main character in this show will be him

[@mikekungfull]

Guys you clearly not have played the game. If you did you would know better not to call Victor "the saviour"

[@sheep4715]

i think it's obvious they don't, and they didn't say they played league, arcane is not only for league players to watch, it's for all, and that's why it's so good, the only advantage we players have is that we get things easily because of the in game lore and so it's easy for us to understand and grasp the narrative, for them it's the first time they have heard of the name heimerdinger...

[@Mirvra]

Except anyone that actually takes the time to learn of Viktor knows that he's got two sides to him. The side we see on full display in the games, and the side he shows to his followers that come to him for healing... He's got a literal cult around him of people and creatures whose lives his Glorious Evolution saved or massively improved, and they certainly consider him ''the saviour''

[@Aaniel_al.Meara.]

Okay? They never said they did? And they don't need it to watch Arcane? What is your point even about?

[@mikekungfull]

@@Aaniel_al.Meara. No point. Just simply advising without spoilers. They might feel bad if they will keep calling him the saviour and find out the truth later into the series.

[@Aaniel_al.Meara.]

@@mikekungfull umh thats exactly how shows works? It's called a plot.
