      I don’t know shit about Leagues of Legends and as a filmmaking student I was hearing so many good stuff in my classes when this came out, the reviews and when I checked out I was blown away. I don’t watch a lot of animated content, before Arcane I watched Invincible and it was amazing and I was like “I don’t see another animated show being this good for a long time for me” then Arcane came out and I was so impressed, it is a masterpiece and one of my favorite shows of all time.

    I love how the difference of treatment between topside and the lanes is shown through so many details.
    A telling example is how the enforcers in topside use bolas to stop criminals, while in the lanes they don't hesitate to point a firearm at children.
    As for League, I stopped playing years ago but I was a top laner at the time, with Irelia as a main (before her rework).

    • @OfficialMediaKnights
      @OfficialMediaKnights  Рік тому +6

      That's an excellent catch!! It helps solidify the world-building, and though it's not necessarily vocalized that much, we see how the people in undercity are forced into squalor.
      Irelia was really cool up until the life steal nerf, it was one of the things that made her a really good champion!

  • @cubablue602

    First two episodes are basically world building and set-up. Very well done but what follows from here goes to a completely different level. The first couple of episodes kind of get overlooked in this show but it must be appreciated how perfectly they set up everything to come. No pay-off without the set-up.

    • @OfficialMediaKnights
      @OfficialMediaKnights  Рік тому +5

      Exactly!! The first two episodes had to do a lot of heavy lifting, and that's what ultimately makes us care for the characters and what they're going through. Without a proper setup, a story will have a hard time to properly flourish!

    Initially, I played Legends of Runeterra for half a year before Arcane was released. That game provides a lot of league of legends lore. Moreover, there are cinematics, called Tales of Runeterra about every region of that fantasy world. So if you want to know more about the world of Arcane, watch them. Also, there were cool campaigns in LOR about characters from Arcane, but it was temporary event, so they can only be found on the Internet. Arcane persuaded me to try League. Although my beloved character is definitely Jinx, my main is Diana, since she is jungler.

      Ohhhh nice! A jungler! Eventually I’d love to learn the role. I’m a main Adc…I did ok as a support but I like how independent you can be as a jungler. You guys can change the tides of a game early on! Thank you for the recommendation on Tales of Runeterra! I’d love to learn more about the lore. We’ll also eventually watch the characters animations 😃

    Arcane is, from start to finish, an amazing show. Every aspect of it, from the music to the animation, storytelling, character writing... all of it is just off the charts. We had no right to get something this powerful out of a video game adaptation, but we did, and I'm eternally grateful for it. As for what you are in for, by the time I'm writing this (seeing as you've finished the series) you are well aware that what you are in for is pain. Beautifully executed pain.

    since you asked my main, it's zoe. she's basically a child but as a God, she causes trouble and loves to play around and is basically one of the most powerful champion according to lore
    but if I ever see her in arcane, she'd probably get along very well with jinx because they both love chaos

    I play league regularly, I switch between Teemo and Urgot as my mains. You may not have recognized him in the first episode, but the scientist in the underwater lair was Singed. They also didn't confirm or deny it, but the fan theory is that the one who rescued Jayce at the beginning of this episode was Ryze using his realm warp and that the stone he gave him was a used up powerless world rune.

    I started league of legends after watching my friends play, but league of legends has now branched off into a series of games centered around these characters and this world - Team Fight tactics, Legends of Runeterra, Wild Rift, the Ruined King and there are other games and shows in development. So there are other ways to enjoy the characters even if the League of Legends MOBA experience is not enjoyable. In fact, I think the World of Runeterra and its champions are what MCU would have been like if their characters originated from games and branched into film and entertainment.

    One thing to bear in mind is that this show is telling its own story and isn't beholden to the LoL game. It's doing its own thing with the characters, a bit like how the MCU is different from Marvel comics. Jinx and Victor especially are very different from their game counterparts.

    In retrospect (spoiler for people's motivations), giving up the kids' location was a pretty great move from Silco. Two outcomes: Either they don't find them and Vander does nothing which weakens his position by making him look scared and pathetic exactly how he's framed at the end of the bar scene, or they do find the kids and in that situation, Vander has to act, Marcus and the enforcers probably end up dead at that point (I mean, were they expecting to escape from the lane alive? Marcus is a moron who's lucky he didn't find the kids), considering Marcus' relatively high status (he's not sheriff but he's probably second in command among the enforcers) war is inevitable and Vander's position might not be compromised in that case, but Silco still gets his war and he gets to force Vander to take part in it. It's a win/win for him. The only "good" outcome would be Vander having enough sense to keep Marcus & co alive as hostages so he can defuse the situation but even that isn't guaranteed to work (and you can be sure Silco would send someone to murder them to force the hostilities so it gives him more opportunities anyway).

    What makes this series great is it is not in fact a League of Legends adaptation or lore expansion, it could`ve been just that but Christian Linke and Alex Yee understand that would be an insult to the fans. No, this is a Greek tragedy loosely based on some "League" champions` deep cut lore and the character portrayals and relationships are different. Viktor`s a villain in the games and also a robot.(Playing into Evil Russian stereotypes which this series thankfully avoids.)Jayce is far more arrogant and unlikeable in the games. Heimerdinger`s mostly the same but is not as responsible with his experiments all the time in canon although he is better in this respect than his assistants gone rogue Singed and Viktor(Also absentminded on occasion which makes sense for a 307 Year Old) . Vi and Jinx were theorized to be sisters for years because of their shared Zaunite origins, punk aesthetics ,unnatural hair colors, problem following rules and love for violence but Riot only confirmed it(As well as Jinx`s real name Powder)recently. Plus, a lot of champions who are archenemies tend to be siblings and many players saw their taunting of each other as sisterly banter. The characters are far more flat in the games in general with hints of tragic backstories limited to deep cut lore, special champion interactions and flashbacks that are very vague and often of questionable canonicity.

    I just saw the first Episode earlier and now this! Woo! Thanks for the quick uploads and I'm looking forward to more! Loved the variety in editing in this one!
    To build on what someone said here, I have compiled several playlists just of League cinematics (including all the Tales of Runeterra clips) from Riot's official UA-cam channel for anyone interested in diving into the lore after watching Arcane. Theyre organized thematically to help give anyone a digestible way to consume all the content (cuz there's alot!). I've been following reactions for a while with this show and it's come in handy for reactors and casual fans alike as supplementary content, so hmu if you'd like to have this on hand!
    I play lots of roles in League, Caitlyn is my fav to play rn. I was a Leona main before, but the most fun I've had was playing with Blitzcrank :)

Oh and Blitz…ughh!! He’s caught me a few times with that claw. Definitely been the reason I’ve died a few times while using Samira 😂

      @@OfficialMediaKnights Probably the most notable ones of the bunch, and ones folks will probably ask you see the most besides some music videos and specific champion trailers are the League of Legends seaasonal cinematics.
      LoL has opened the last couple of years' seasons with a jawdropping cinematic to hype the players for a year's worth of gaming. I'm including the original Official Teaser Trailer from 2009 for the launch of their beta just so you can compare the production quality to how the cinematics are made now.
      I think it also goes without saying that those who have played this will probably have heard of these cinematics to some degree. In my personal opinion, I would save these for last in your viewing to allow you to soak in everything else the world has to offer first! But it's here if you want to jump right into them:

      @@OfficialMediaKnights The Second playlist I will send you will be a compilation of all the Runeterra related mobile gaming cinematics. They're unique and fun, but also tell their own side stories within the world of Runeterra. If you've played either Legends of Runeterra (the card game) or Wild Rift (the mobile version of LoL) you might've come across these.
      As I understand it, League lore has been that of 'soft canon' - a sortof flexible interpretation of the lore is allowed through its different IPs, including these games. Someone can come correct me if I'm wrong - but I do prefer keeping the lore sortof contained to the game they're attached to (Legends of Runeterra has this, Wild Rift tells it differently, maybe). Some stuff lines up to what's been read in lore, some, maybe not so much/is too vague to confirm it lining up to 'base' lore. I haven't played these games too closely too, so I'm not sure how true this all is.
      Regardless, this playlist will contain lots of very good insight on different regions and champions. You'll see that I've split it from Tales of Runeterra cinematics to then WIld Rift cinematics. Tales of Runeterra are all quite interesting and usually tell a short story from a region, while the Wild Rift cinematics focus more on showing off the champions they're reintroducing to mobile gameplay:

      @@OfficialMediaKnights Third playlist - Music Videos!
      You might've heard that Riot Games was first a music company that just 'happened' to make a game - it's simply put that Riot has put out some amazing music over the years, but they were definitely a game company first (but their music simply kicks ass to be regarded as another thing on its own).
      On this playlist, I first listed Get Jinxed and Enemy, two tie-ins to Arcane. Get Jinxed, being the release trailer for Jinx into LoL and I believe Fortiche's first animation with Riot Games. The rest are all very good watches as well, my personal fav being 'As We Fall'. There is one I purposely skipped over as I think it fit in bettter with the next playlist after this one:

    I would recommend watching "Call of Power | - - - - Cinematic - League of Legends" before EP 3 as the cinematic is about what Heimerdinger fears. Don't worry it doesn't spoil anything or reveal any ARCANE characters, with the exception of people speculating that - - - - is the guy that gives Jayce the stone.
    If not, then It's 1 of the first ones to watch after ARCANE.
    I do think it's a good idea to slot it in between EP 2 and EP 3 though. It's only 5:30 min long.

    I main Malzahar, but I don’t expect him for several seasons in Arcane. They’re more likely to start moving to other well-populated areas first.
    A good show to react to would be Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD. It starts slow so it can build a world but it’s wildly character-driven. It has a built-in reaction fan base and it’s over 100 episodes to keep people coming back.

    • @OfficialMediaKnights
      @OfficialMediaKnights  Рік тому

      Ahhh Malzahar! He’d be a great addition to Arcane. I do hope each season focuses on the origin of different characters like this first season. And maybe an over-arching storyline between all of the seasons. Thank you for recommending Agents of SHIELD we’ll definitely add it to the list 😄😃

    This is my least favorite episode (they're building...). So I give my recommendations here and I will comment on "Arcane" later. Sorry if you've seen everything already because the shows I'd like to see you react to are really obvious choices (we never know).
    2 movies:
    - JOKER (I've never managed to watch a full Batman movie because I find them so boring but "Joker" is... something else!);
    - ARRIVAL (it's about... just watch it).
    6 Series (none are sci-fi/supernatural shows, which you seem to really enjoy, but I guarantee they're all excellent):
    - FARGO is an anthology series, so you don't have to watch all seasons. Black comedy. Everyone prefers season 2 but my favorite is the first one;
    - THE QUEEN'S GAMBIT. So much suspense. Very entertaining;
    - EUPHORIA. I thought I was too old for this teen series but I really liked it and the UA-camrs emphasize the cinematographic, technical and artistic qualities of the show. As filmmakers, you might find some interesting stuffs in there;
    - Some people on Earth haven't seen BREAKING BAD and BETTER CALL SAUL yet. Good for them: they can react to these essential masterpieces and gain many new subscribers ;
    - BLACK MIROR. OK, this one is a kind of si/fi, I guess. Every episode is a unique story so you can watch just one of them (my favorites are 1x03 and 3x01).
    Sorry for this loooong comment. Whatever you react to, I love you guys. ❤❤❤
