Never watched Arcane before. Do I need to play LoL to understand the full lore?

Nope, not at all. Which, high-key, is one of the best parts about this show lol.
Also, thoroughly recommend the show. It's an absolute masterpiece.

Riot made Arcane canon, and most of the lore is gonna get a rework, so this is just a LoL thread

Here’s the thing though, some of us don’t want to go into the League thread just to discuss Arcane

I mean, its a powerscaling forum, so sadly you would need to touch a bit of the game since one scales to the other now
I don't play LoL and barely know anything about the lore, but the canon is a mess right now. The rushed ending made a bunch of characters end up noncanon and nonexistent. It will take some decades for riot to fix everything

Watched arcane season 1 in 2021, it made me want to play the game, downloaded it and deleted it from my pc after one match cuz it's crap, watched arcane season 2 in 2024 and it also made me want to play the game again, downloaded it and then deleted even before a single match cuz its fricking CRAP

Following.
On episode 8 of Season 2.
Can't credit this show enough.
It's the pinnacle of animation. There isn't a show that's more beautifully produced than Arcane. If there is, please enlighten me, but I doubt it. Every episode of this has the same quality as the Spider verse movie series. Spectacular.
Makes even the best looking animes look mediocre in comparison, not gonna lie. I am almost jealous that League of all things got such a makeover. Yet I can't even be mad.
S1 is easily a 10/10. The story is simple but flawlessly executed with good characters and even better dialogue. Heavily amplified by otherworldly production value. The direction of the show alone makes even the most simple storytelling beats go so unbelievably hard.
S2 is... messy, but mostly in a good way. There's a lot going on because of everything that happened by the end of S1. Really feels like they've condensed what could've been like 4 seasons of consequences into 1. Despite that it manages to hold itself together and flow just well enough to make itself sweet. It's still extraordinarily good. Even more beautiful than the 1st season in many instances. And there's so much climax.
I really wonder how it'll end. Only 2 more episodes left for me.

Finished the show. I will say I thought the very end was a little underwhelming. Not gonna spoil anything but some story threads seemed forced and this entire thing really feels like it should've had more time to brew.
Anyway, I can now firmly say my favorite character is Viktor. Closely followed by Jinx.
Both of them consistently had the best writing.
Also, have no words for Singed.

lmao they fricking retconned everything, Viktor used to be like Iron Man but with Ultron goal instead, now he's some deity.
I like this change but I understand the viktor mains that got mad

He/Him- 7,461

Arcane was meant to be an AU, no Viktor main would have complained if the new base Viktor was instead turned into a legendary skin where he is the Arcane Herald instead of the Machine Herald
In any case, since Riot has ****** up and will not amend the massive lore inconsistencies this has created we are to merge the Arcane and main League profiles, with Arcane taking canonical priority
So uh, whole PnZ cast is like tier 9 and a bunch of other champions from the region basically don't exist until Riot bothers to rewrite their lore.

Hear me out: don’t do that until the Arcane profiles get revised. A lot of them need work, some characters don’t even have pages yet, and it’d be a lot easier to fix them without having to wade through shit from the games.

Nothing from the game itself, cinematics and prior color stories/comics can be used for the profiles now since Arcane is the "main canon"
Like for example, besides the very limited time rewind Ekko lost all his hax and time gadgets lol
