From what I heard, Singed is responsible for a lot in the LOL lore. A war happens, Singed is there. A cult is out of control, Singed comes to say hello.
I dont really follow or play LoL but i heard somewhere that basically high chance that most current timeline of LoL Heroes/Character suffering can be traced back to singed shenanigans lmao.
The dude is the hidden mastermind of all the events in Arcane. - Created shimmer - Enslaved a large majority of Zaun with shimmer - Basically created a cure for death through his experiments - Mentored Viktor and gave him the means to begin his arcane transformation - Saved and transformed Jinx - Created Warwick - Revived Viktor and helped him achieve his "final evolution" - Supported Noxus in their battle against Piltover - Created Oriana - Was the only one in the end who didn't lose anything of importance.
@@sassenspeyghel4155 He never seemed to care much about his physical appearance though. You never saw him trying to change the way he looked throughout the show, he just hid his face so others didn't gawk at him.
At first I was mad that Singed was the only one who didn't lose anything. But then I realized that because he had nothing left to lose, this was the only possible ending for him...
To me, Singed was basically trying to advertise in the most public way possible the potential of his projects to Ambessa during that prison break. He wanted her to see the utter destruction he could do to tempt her, and thereby gain access to her resources. Also, remember, Ambessa REALLY needed to find a good scientist after heimer and ekko went MIA.
The guy only has a few appearences and barely interacts with any of the protagonists for more than minutes. Yet he manages to have a colossal influence over the entire series through his actions. Brilliant.
@@offlaner745 he should've been the one to get the vgu instead of victor considering he's the first champion ever made as well. new voice lines to other champions that are in arcane and voice lines to orianna would've been awesome.
The story of Arcane is all letting the world burn for a daughter. In that, Singed is indeed the undisputed champion. The only messed up things from the show he's not involved in were the Grey, the original suppression of the Zaun rebellion, and the Black Rose. Everything else terrible that happened in the show was either directly or indirectly the consequence of something he did in order to resurrect his daughter.
I'm glad they use Singed gradually. It's easy to blow your load early with a villain that's this influential but they're letting him build his status up gradually after the death of Silco.
He is quite the character, and his story works with the theme of love, making people do great and awful things. I wish he would use Hextech with his experiments to take them to the next level.
He will most likely save Viktor, and use Warwick’s/Vanders blood on him so he can potentially save Orianna, and from Viktor’s monologue it almost seems as if he expected this to happen, I wouldn’t be surprised if the hex core gave Viktor some insight into the future, as their are different types of magics in runterra and their combination have influence over the world, like the hex crystals themself let you alter physics, time and space, and example of this is Ekko’s time winder, and restoring the youth to people by either repairing the damaged DNA and or reversing time, what It can technically do both
it’s interesting how viktor spent so much time with hextech only to have a bottle of shimmer fix his physical health immediately. while singed could save his daughter potentially with a hextech gemstone after ruining the whole undercity with his shimmer
Not many casual watchers know how smart Singed truly is. He is dismissed as teh crazy doctor but oh hell he is the mastermind of most things, all related to his daugher's revival obviously.
I loved it when he conciously waited in his cell, not leaving with the others because its further proof that he planned this whole thing probably even to the point where he came to the rally just to get arrested because he knew ambessa would show up and he knew ambessa would be impressed by warwick. In the end Singed wanted Ressources so he pulled this insane 5 Head Stunt. (Also him cutting his hand super early, etc.)
This scene in act 2, when Singed took Viktor's hand without any hesitation, GOD i got chills... Viktor was at fkin messiah's level, with more knowledge than any human being, and Singed was still the one in control. "Child, you sure did grow a lot ! Now let your grandpa have a better look for a second… oh, and you can search in my mind, I've nothing to hide". Absolute fearless move.
we've seen Leblanc already. when Kino doppleganger was pressed againist wall and evenfually turned into Mel herself you would notice 2 long stripes under her eyes. that's Leblanc's iconic makeup. plus there is a character labeled as "illusionary sorceress" in the episode 5 credit scene.
@@vgmarkis It will most likely be a Noxus/Ionia themed show, seeing how they are making the connection with Singed and Noxus through Ambessa. It only makes sense.
I don't think Viktor's death is what made Warwick go crazy with the lava eyes I think singed injected the serum when vi and jinx where outside the tent.
That's up for debate, but if you look closely in the hug scene after Warwick got rid of Rictus from the tent, he does have the white glowy marks on the forehead that people who were helped/saved by Viktor's magic have. And everyone who had those marks got affected when Viktor "died" so that would include Warwick too, logically. As for the lava, when Viktor was peeking inside Vander/WW's psyche, there was this theme of red and lava already inside so I don't think this has anything to do with Singed's serum, it's just the ultimate manifestation of the beast.
Vander was touched by Viktor, and when Viktor "died", everyone connected to him also died, but vander was not fully connected, so he's alive but with negative side effects.
@@Attya-y2y That wouldn't really explain why Viktor's death would cause Vander to lose it though. He was already in control prior to even seeing Viktor. I think the stronger implication is that Singed was successful in seizing a moment of chaos in order to inject Vander. The shot of Singed standing alone in the tent without his sirum is too purposeful for it to be otherwise. But who knows, we'll know for sure on Friday.
@@kassaken6521also, maybe, everyone that was cured by viktor, had some major flaws in them, like evil. Remember just before vitktor cured the first guy, he and others were trying to kill him. So he removes the entire evil from them. But vander was never like them. He was always good. I wonder what viktor actually did to him/ his soul or whatever he does
Everything Singed says is profound and shows he thinks on.a different level than other characters in the show. He is both extremely intelligent yet also wise. He lacks morals to a degree, but he is still wise, and outplays everyone because of it.
What cant be overlooked in comparison, however, is, that he also doesnt really have, or take responsibility though. And 'others' vision or goal might easily be seen as failed if they didnt.
i just love how the show characterized him like he maneuvers the other characters around to somehow do his bidding even indirectly hes always been there even in viktors childhood

That's what you get when you hang back in the shadows and let all the colorful, prideful, and important people kill each other while you play the long game.
One thing that got pointed out to me that I missed, is that Jayce is not the reason for Vander's transformation - him "killing" Viktor (we'll see if he stays dead) was not the catalyst for Vander's loss of humanity in this arc's finale. It was Singed and his sirum. When everyone left the tent to checkout what was causing all the refugees to scream, it left Singed alone in there with Vander. Then we see chemicals spewing out of him as he loses control, then we cut to a conscious Singed standing alone in the tent. The implication seems to be that he was successful in using that moment of chaos to inject Vander with the concoction that he was talking about with Ambessa.
And in Act 3, Singed will be reviving Viktor and thus the Machine Herald will be reborn but at the cost of Viktor’s humanity…..AND I AM TERRIFIED OF THAT! Act 2 put me on an emotional roller coaster and it crashed my feelings into bits! As for the hate on Jayce, WE as the audience don’t know what he went through or why he did what he did but there has to be some explanation on WHY he killed Viktor. Although it broke my heart to see him shoot down Viktor, but even I knew something dark was going on in Jayce’s Visions.
Singed is amazingly written and voiced acted too. It is kinda interesting to me just how good he balances being an actually clam and decent person to a scientist who crosses the boundaries. It actually feel's just how lonely and desperate he is to get his daughter back. I think the most cutest and saddest thing for me how his daughter's room is painted, it has toys, it is is basically perserved to wait for her as it was before and the little girl is beautiful and shiny, while her father is twisted and and beyoned her doors are horror's which await her and her father's legacy. I'm mostly curious how they are planning to bring Ori back into the picture.
just a minor detail you might've missed. at 1:35 - That is a murk wolf (they're also part of summoners rift as monsters in the jungle). it's a wolf with 2 heads and he got them from the Freiljords where they live.
One of the most hauntingly beautiful moments is when Singed was explaining how Vander was once a man, victim of tragedy, and the image briefly flashes to him carrying his daughter. He was essentially talking about his own backstory.
@@KvngLeroy1 I will try it but for the record bunnies or cows are easier and any side effects of scellafication are on you (those might include the following; anger, extre loss of body heat , urge to eat flies , nesting habits, crying blood, pealing of skin, headaces, trying lay eggs, extreme hunger and some un forseen ones added on top)
I once was Singed one trick (him and taric, just them), but after 2019 I quit playing the game. Now watching arcane I feel really happy that this dude is THIS important, I feel like that "investment" I did when I was younger playing him for hours almost exclusively payed of in a sort of way. I love this show and I love how the voice actor interprets him, just perfect
I think Arcane is going to end with Orianna being reborn with hextech after Singed recovers Viktor and Warwick, more resembling her version from the game. Another thing worth mentioning is Singed's influence on Viktor. He basically planted the philosophical seeds in him that were catalyzed by Jayce betraying him. I think he's going to resuscitate as the crazy cult leader "glorious evolution" Viktor from the games, partially due to Singed's influence.
@VGMarkis 8:07 I think something people missed is that it might not have been Victors ‘death’ that caused Warwick to go insane. But rather in the confusion Singed woke up and activated the plan. I am fully in the corner that Singed is masterminding this, activating warwick was the best way to cause Victor to see his own finite power and accepting the blood from Warwick. However with his death it might no longer be up to Victor if he accepts it or not.
Someone pointed out something that I didn’t realize initially. I just thought it was Viktor’s death that caused Vander to go berserk, but actually Singed took advantage of the chaos and used that serum he originally came to inject Vander with. Pretty sure that’s the main reason why Vander lost control and looked like lava was gushing out of his insides.
For any lore nerds out there: Can you explain how Warwick is attracted specifically to Singed's blood (and later Isha's in the underground mines)? It seems implausible that these were the only two characters in Zaun who were bleeding at the time (especially with Ambessa's military occupation and all the violence her forces use). I know that there are three episodes left in the Season, so maybe it'll get explained then.
Likely the blood transfusion Singed gave to Warwick in Episode 3 created a form of connection between the two, so Warwick can always detect specifically Singed’s blood being spilled and track him down and save him. It’s a way for Singed to maintain control over his big scary bioweapon monster.
Season 2 is fantastic but it seems like elements here and there are being rushed. It's a pity they only went for 9 eps and its the final season because its clear that they had so much more to tell.
Tbh I'm really glad Singed got a spotlight in act 2 since Heimedinger and Echo are still gone, Jayce only breifly appears, Loris, Maddie and Sevika kinda all disappear past the first episode and the Ambessa/ Noxus stuff comes more into the forefront. So having someone who up till now has been in the sidelines not only getting his moment but being intertwined into the central plot was awesome to see especially his Ambessa interactions. He ain't just some mad scientist side character.
8:05 I think that this shot means that Warwick wasnt enraged by Viktor "dying" but, because Singed gave him the serum? Especially that Vander wasn't fully healed and didn't have this crystal parts all over his body.
I hope they will alter the lore a bit, so he isn't just a genocider. Some Noxian scholars could just have learned how to produce shimmer and they used it with an ill intent. Like idk, Singed wouldn't want Orianna to think of him poorly. But still, what will he do next. Will he want to give a cure for death for all of humanity, will he want to make himself immortal, will he want to restore Orianna's original body, will he just retire and spend all the time left with his daughter. There are plenty of possibilities, but I just don't want them to turn him into a crazy villain who enjoys killing. He isn't evil. He is just dedicated and determined to take any means to achieve his goal. Now he technically did just that, but will he settle on that? And I also want a visual update for him, maybe with a slight gameplay improvement. I especially want some heartbreaking voicelines with Orianna. Daymn, they could also give him Aurelion Sol/Jhin treatment with 30 minutes of voicelines.
The connection they gave singed is so good. Orianna is still one of my all time favriote champs, so seeing her acaullty get huge lore importance makes me happy
Just finished watching Season 2 and I'm shaken. It was well written, to me at least, but I don't know if I've formed a more in-depth opinion than that. The time skips were annoying, I guess, but that's a problem Season 1 also had, right? I have a ton of questions. What exactly is Black Rose, why was everything in that dark timeline all... is spongy the right word? Licheny? And what were those creatures? They didn't look like the robots in the last few episodes. The Arcane is implied to be sapient, I think? If so, what are its intentions? What was that form Viktor took with the mask? How was Vander still able to move after the nightmare ended? His mind was gone, and I thought every bodily function was now sustained by Viktor. With him gone, shouldn't Warwick have died?
Out of all the characters in this show, he was the only one who got a real happy ending. He didn’t give up a single thing and was still rewarded. Vi & Jinx who? Jayce & Viktor who? Caitlyn & Echo who? Make room for SINGED aka the REAL hero of the show!
Singed has been one of the most memorable parts of the new season. His discussion with Viktor was very well written. EDIT SPOILERS: he’s the only character who got what he wanted in the end 💀 goat fr
7:56 i dont think its jayce raining on the parade - well he certainly did to a degree - warwick/vander was alone in the room with singed who only got chocked out, we see the frame of him standing up. previous in ambessas camp we see singed fucking about with his chemicals, he gave something to warwick/vander, i dont think viktors healing shenanigans had gotten entirely through to vander as every time we see vander he looks more like warwick. other people viktor has healed look like entirely new people, with the marks/eyes being the sign of them being 'healed'
8:00 Don't think Jayce is directly responsible for Vander losing control. Viktor's death just distracted the characters in the greenhouse who ran outside and they left Vander alone in the greenhouse with Singed who must've woken up and administered the serum
Singed went to the rally because he had it all planned out. When Silco died he lost the funding for his work and as such any hope to save his daughter. He knew that Ambessa would fund his work if she saw what Warwick could do.
I wonder is Viktor will have anything to do with Orianna's comeback to life with hextech. When Singed touched Viktor's hand it gave Viktor the information about Singed's daughter, just wondering about the meaning of that detail, why did they show us that?
I think going to act 3 we are finally going to see singed flip somebody. Singed is a smart man, now that he was defeated in a physical confrontation he won't make that mistake again.
Keep in mind this all happens before Noxus invades Ionia, since now Singed got in with Noxus through Ambessa Edit: I wonder if we'll get a series in the future about the Black Rose doing everything in their power to prepare for Mordekaiser's 3rd crusade, since Noxus seems really keen on Hextech weaponry as a way to fight him. I love how Mordekaiser is functionally the final boss of League of Legends, and every experiment LeBlanc performs and schemes around is all to fight Mordekaiser Mordekaiser es numero uno huehuehuehuehue 🇧🇷🇧🇷
@@0verl0rd67 The writers have confirmed that while the story of Arcane was over, they have plans to tell other stories in Runeterra. Nothing has been made official but Noxus might be the next destination.
Im really glad that they are centering the world of league around arcane now. Sure this means that thing that contradict arcane are now non canon (like Reveck in convergence) but it also makes the lore much more cohesive.
I love Jayce. If anything, the last two episodes made him even cooler. He’s clearly seen some shit and I’m fully expecting his actions to be justified. I’m not falling for the clear and obvious presentation and lack of information that makes him look bad. Most of all I can’t wait for Ekko’s epic return. Episode 7 of season 1 was Ekko’s episode after all so I expect the show to do it again after not showing him at all during these 3 episodes.
as impressive as he is, its unassuming Ekko, out of all the scientists, who invents the greatest invention of them all, time travel, its feat none before or since have mastered, I hope they state just how big a deal this invention is in the show.
Now that I think about it there's a way for arcane oriana to become a the champion oriana, victor returns and prosperity goes down the "glorious evolution" road and makes a fully hextech body for oriana to "resurrect" into Heck, maybe blitzcrank can even fit as a "prototype" to develop oriana's hextech body, this way they can even somewhat tie in the "hextech" skin line as victor creating them as warrior under him
Very well done Video, Although, to be fair, we only know that Singed’s Family Name is Reveck, we still don’t know his First Name or at least we never heard it still.
This what you called peak mad scientist. Singed had very low screen time and most of them are non dialogue but arcane delivery what a mad scientist is all about insane series.
Singed was the first league champion (at least, he was in the base roster and someone called him the first and it's ool so I'm saying it!) and he is continuously proving why that is. He built this house, what can you expect other than perfection?!?!!
Yeah, until Orianna figures out just how much of a monster her dad has become, or she gets taken by piltovan execs as a potentially extremely dangerous being. If anything, that ending is really manupilative because it likely won't last long at all.
He's a very interesting character, and much thanks to videos like yours it's easier to appreciate the details that they show and that are hidden in the game/lore. What I am very interested about now, is since Caitlyn almost killed him - which would also kill his daughter, will he become more dangerous and not so uncaring for his life? Nothing seemed to trigger Warwick when he was injured, unless he faked it or Viktor preventing it? I love this show and the speculation and jabba around it, been nothing like it. Hope for more
Idk about some of you, but Singed feels like Mr. Freeze when they revealed his daughter preserved in a casket while he tries to find a cure or in which case a means to revive her.

That's what you get when you hang back in the shadows and let all the colorful, prideful, and important people kill each other while you play the long game.
One thing that got pointed out to me that I missed, is that Jayce is not the reason for Vander's transformation - him "killing" Viktor (we'll see if he stays dead) was not the catalyst for Vander's loss of humanity in this arc's finale. It was Singed and his sirum. When everyone left the tent to checkout what was causing all the refugees to scream, it left Singed alone in there with Vander. Then we see chemicals spewing out of him as he loses control, then we cut to a conscious Singed standing alone in the tent.
The implication seems to be that he was successful in using that moment of chaos to inject Vander with the concoction that he was talking about with Ambessa.
And in Act 3, Singed will be reviving Viktor and thus the Machine Herald will be reborn but at the cost of Viktor’s humanity…..AND I AM TERRIFIED OF THAT!
Act 2 put me on an emotional roller coaster and it crashed my feelings into bits! As for the hate on Jayce, WE as the audience don’t know what he went through or why he did what he did but there has to be some explanation on WHY he killed Viktor. Although it broke my heart to see him shoot down Viktor, but even I knew something dark was going on in Jayce’s Visions.
Singed is amazingly written and voiced acted too. It is kinda interesting to me just how good he balances being an actually clam and decent person to a scientist who crosses the boundaries. It actually feel's just how lonely and desperate he is to get his daughter back. I think the most cutest and saddest thing for me how his daughter's room is painted, it has toys, it is is basically perserved to wait for her as it was before and the little girl is beautiful and shiny, while her father is twisted and and beyoned her doors are horror's which await her and her father's legacy. I'm mostly curious how they are planning to bring Ori back into the picture.
my guys needs a rework
just a minor detail you might've missed. at 1:35 - That is a murk wolf (they're also part of summoners rift as monsters in the jungle). it's a wolf with 2 heads and he got them from the Freiljords where they live.
One of the most hauntingly beautiful moments is when Singed was explaining how Vander was once a man, victim of tragedy, and the image briefly flashes to him carrying his daughter. He was essentially talking about his own backstory.
Very accurate title, because SINGED WON ARCANE
Oh my lord even more so. MAJOR SINGED W HE GOT HIS HAPPY ENDING
Well , as bio-engineering student when ever Singed ( or Viktor) make an appearance my brain just goes "NOTE THAT DOWN! NOTE THAT DOWN!"
Make me a Humunculi
@KvngLeroy1 On it! But it might be a tad bit... furry
@outsider4851 If you're gonna make me an animal make me a crocodile please
@@KvngLeroy1 I will try it but for the record bunnies or cows are easier and any side effects of scellafication are on you (those might include the following; anger, extre loss of body heat , urge to eat flies , nesting habits, crying blood, pealing of skin, headaces, trying lay eggs, extreme hunger and some un forseen ones added on top)
I once was Singed one trick (him and taric, just them), but after 2019 I quit playing the game. Now watching arcane I feel really happy that this dude is THIS important, I feel like that "investment" I did when I was younger playing him for hours almost exclusively payed of in a sort of way. I love this show and I love how the voice actor interprets him, just perfect
I think Arcane is going to end with Orianna being reborn with hextech after Singed recovers Viktor and Warwick, more resembling her version from the game. Another thing worth mentioning is Singed's influence on Viktor. He basically planted the philosophical seeds in him that were catalyzed by Jayce betraying him. I think he's going to resuscitate as the crazy cult leader "glorious evolution" Viktor from the games, partially due to Singed's influence.
Well holy shit.... here you dropped your crown 👑(it's quite heavy)
@VGMarkis 8:07 I think something people missed is that it might not have been Victors ‘death’ that caused Warwick to go insane. But rather in the confusion Singed woke up and activated the plan.
I am fully in the corner that Singed is masterminding this, activating warwick was the best way to cause Victor to see his own finite power and accepting the blood from Warwick. However with his death it might no longer be up to Victor if he accepts it or not.
arcane is simply a master class on how to adapt videogame lore to tv. Every change they make is not only tasteful, it adds depth to the characters
Imagine the final boss of arcane is Singed and his moveset is him judo flipping the shit out of everyone
my goat singed carried the show for real.
Someone pointed out something that I didn’t realize initially. I just thought it was Viktor’s death that caused Vander to go berserk, but actually Singed took advantage of the chaos and used that serum he originally came to inject Vander with. Pretty sure that’s the main reason why Vander lost control and looked like lava was gushing out of his insides.
It's definitely possible that could've been the case as opposed to the Viktor "dying" thing. On me for not mentioning that possibility.
For any lore nerds out there: Can you explain how Warwick is attracted specifically to Singed's blood (and later Isha's in the underground mines)? It seems implausible that these were the only two characters in Zaun who were bleeding at the time (especially with Ambessa's military occupation and all the violence her forces use). I know that there are three episodes left in the Season, so maybe it'll get explained then.
Warwick has blood transfusion with Singer maybe that's why he was atracted to Singed
I was wondering this too, commenting so I get notified if someone knows lol
Likely the blood transfusion Singed gave to Warwick in Episode 3 created a form of connection between the two, so Warwick can always detect specifically Singed’s blood being spilled and track him down and save him. It’s a way for Singed to maintain control over his big scary bioweapon monster.
Might be a specific blood type Warwick goes for
the isha thing was because he was already nearby i think
Honestly so excited to see Orianna do that first Waltz
The only thing share between his lore and gameplay is He always two steps ahead 🏃♂🏃♂🏃♂
He literally WON Arcane, you were absolutely right
Season 2 is fantastic but it seems like elements here and there are being rushed.
It's a pity they only went for 9 eps and its the final season because its clear that they had so much more to tell.
Geneva conventions? More like Geneva suggestions.
He was my fav character both seasons
Tbh I'm really glad Singed got a spotlight in act 2 since Heimedinger and Echo are still gone, Jayce only breifly appears, Loris, Maddie and Sevika kinda all disappear past the first episode and the Ambessa/ Noxus stuff comes more into the forefront. So having someone who up till now has been in the sidelines not only getting his moment but being intertwined into the central plot was awesome to see especially his Ambessa interactions. He ain't just some mad scientist side character.
8:05 I think that this shot means that Warwick wasnt enraged by Viktor "dying" but, because Singed gave him the serum? Especially that Vander wasn't fully healed and didn't have this crystal parts all over his body.
I hope they will alter the lore a bit, so he isn't just a genocider. Some Noxian scholars could just have learned how to produce shimmer and they used it with an ill intent. Like idk, Singed wouldn't want Orianna to think of him poorly.
But still, what will he do next. Will he want to give a cure for death for all of humanity, will he want to make himself immortal, will he want to restore Orianna's original body, will he just retire and spend all the time left with his daughter. There are plenty of possibilities, but I just don't want them to turn him into a crazy villain who enjoys killing. He isn't evil. He is just dedicated and determined to take any means to achieve his goal. Now he technically did just that, but will he settle on that?
And I also want a visual update for him, maybe with a slight gameplay improvement. I especially want some heartbreaking voicelines with Orianna. Daymn, they could also give him Aurelion Sol/Jhin treatment with 30 minutes of voicelines.
I thought back of your first Singed video when I saw him popping off as a cold mf this season. Awesome to have this follow-up!
Singed in Arcane: I have become death, destroyer of worlds
Singed in-game: FLIPPITY!
Singed VA, OMG BRO, he don't miss.
The connection they gave singed is so good. Orianna is still one of my all time favriote champs, so seeing her acaullty get huge lore importance makes me happy
Just finished watching Season 2 and I'm shaken. It was well written, to me at least, but I don't know if I've formed a more in-depth opinion than that. The time skips were annoying, I guess, but that's a problem Season 1 also had, right?
I have a ton of questions. What exactly is Black Rose, why was everything in that dark timeline all... is spongy the right word? Licheny? And what were those creatures? They didn't look like the robots in the last few episodes. The Arcane is implied to be sapient, I think? If so, what are its intentions? What was that form Viktor took with the mask? How was Vander still able to move after the nightmare ended? His mind was gone, and I thought every bodily function was now sustained by Viktor. With him gone, shouldn't Warwick have died?
Out of all the characters in this show, he was the only one who got a real happy ending. He didn’t give up a single thing and was still rewarded. Vi & Jinx who? Jayce & Viktor who? Caitlyn & Echo who? Make room for SINGED aka the REAL hero of the show!
Mix, mix, swirl and mix...
I happy he won he never betrayed anyone and held true too his goal
Singed has been one of the most memorable parts of the new season. His discussion with Viktor was very well written. EDIT SPOILERS: he’s the only character who got what he wanted in the end 💀 goat fr
8:04 since singed is standing there fine, I think the reason Warwick became molten and angry is due to the serum
my favourite breed of character is the one who barely appears and yet is crucially important. the Singeds and the Eren Krugers.
7:56 i dont think its jayce raining on the parade - well he certainly did to a degree - warwick/vander was alone in the room with singed who only got chocked out, we see the frame of him standing up. previous in ambessas camp we see singed fucking about with his chemicals, he gave something to warwick/vander, i dont think viktors healing shenanigans had gotten entirely through to vander as every time we see vander he looks more like warwick. other people viktor has healed look like entirely new people, with the marks/eyes being the sign of them being 'healed'
8:00 Don't think Jayce is directly responsible for Vander losing control. Viktor's death just distracted the characters in the greenhouse who ran outside and they left Vander alone in the greenhouse with Singed who must've woken up and administered the serum
Singed went to the rally because he had it all planned out. When Silco died he lost the funding for his work and as such any hope to save his daughter. He knew that Ambessa would fund his work if she saw what Warwick could do.
I wonder is Viktor will have anything to do with Orianna's comeback to life with hextech. When Singed touched Viktor's hand it gave Viktor the information about Singed's daughter, just wondering about the meaning of that detail, why did they show us that?
I think going to act 3 we are finally going to see singed flip somebody.
Singed is a smart man, now that he was defeated in a physical confrontation he won't make that mistake again.
Singed is the DEFINITIVE most important and impactful person in Arcane
Keep in mind this all happens before Noxus invades Ionia, since now Singed got in with Noxus through Ambessa
Edit: I wonder if we'll get a series in the future about the Black Rose doing everything in their power to prepare for Mordekaiser's 3rd crusade, since Noxus seems really keen on Hextech weaponry as a way to fight him. I love how Mordekaiser is functionally the final boss of League of Legends, and every experiment LeBlanc performs and schemes around is all to fight Mordekaiser
Mordekaiser es numero uno huehuehuehuehue 🇧🇷🇧🇷
@@0verl0rd67 The writers have confirmed that while the story of Arcane was over, they have plans to tell other stories in Runeterra. Nothing has been made official but Noxus might be the next destination.
DROP THE KNIFE, DROP THE KNIFE got me 😂😂
I need figures/statues of the characters in Arcane. Their designs are some of the best the League brand has produced.
Im really glad that they are centering the world of league around arcane now. Sure this means that thing that contradict arcane are now non canon (like Reveck in convergence) but it also makes the lore much more cohesive.
i hope next lol fortiche project is going to be singed gassing the fuck out of ionia
maybe thats when/how we get orianna
I'm pretty sure if this gets expanded Ionia or noxus would make sense next
so many story lines and povs in the show. i never got bored watching it. except for the black girls part i cant lie
I love Jayce. If anything, the last two episodes made him even cooler. He’s clearly seen some shit and I’m fully expecting his actions to be justified. I’m not falling for the clear and obvious presentation and lack of information that makes him look bad. Most of all I can’t wait for Ekko’s epic return. Episode 7 of season 1 was Ekko’s episode after all so I expect the show to do it again after not showing him at all during these 3 episodes.
Like many of the character in this show, singed is freaking amazing, he steal every scene hes in.
as impressive as he is, its unassuming Ekko, out of all the scientists, who invents the greatest invention of them all, time travel, its feat none before or since have mastered, I hope they state just how big a deal this invention is in the show.
Now that I think about it there's a way for arcane oriana to become a the champion oriana, victor returns and prosperity goes down the "glorious evolution" road and makes a fully hextech body for oriana to "resurrect" into
Heck, maybe blitzcrank can even fit as a "prototype" to develop oriana's hextech body, this way they can even somewhat tie in the "hextech" skin line as victor creating them as warrior under him
Very well done Video,
Although, to be fair, we only know that Singed’s Family Name is Reveck, we still don’t know his First Name or at least we never heard it still.
This what you called peak mad scientist. Singed had very low screen time and most of them are non dialogue but arcane delivery what a mad scientist is all about insane series.
Singed was the first league champion (at least, he was in the base roster and someone called him the first and it's ool so I'm saying it!) and he is continuously proving why that is.
He built this house, what can you expect other than perfection?!?!!
as a singed enjoyer i am having a blast with every second of singed
Singed the only guy who got a happy ending.
Yeah, until Orianna figures out just how much of a monster her dad has become, or she gets taken by piltovan execs as a potentially extremely dangerous being. If anything, that ending is really manupilative because it likely won't last long at all.
He's a very interesting character, and much thanks to videos like yours it's easier to appreciate the details that they show and that are hidden in the game/lore. What I am very interested about now, is since Caitlyn almost killed him - which would also kill his daughter, will he become more dangerous and not so uncaring for his life? Nothing seemed to trigger Warwick when he was injured, unless he faked it or Viktor preventing it? I love this show and the speculation and jabba around it, been nothing like it. Hope for more
Idk about some of you, but Singed feels like Mr. Freeze when they revealed his daughter preserved in a casket while he tries to find a cure or in which case a means to revive her.
What was he doing in front of fhe cave with (what I suppose were) wolves inside?
Jayce obviously went to the future with Ekko, saw the void invade through Viktor and was sent back by Ekko/Heimer
singed biting the curb in 4k when
Agreed. He's The catalyst for so much
Oh Singed is a absolute monster …or is that Warwick.
(a little Mary Shelley humour. :) )
