Then there are characters like Caitlyn and Ekko, who deserve their time in the limelight before too many new champions show up.
Since the Vander-as-Warwick angle ties more into the season 1 arc, that storyline might be the safer bet. Based solely on her hairdo, some have guessed this woman might be Orianna, a champion of Zaun made entirely of clockwork that Arcane may choose to introduce, but more importantly, it hints at a deeper, more emotional motivation for the alchemist’s single-minded, somewhat amoral experimentation. Singed himself might even invite further development, given that he was seen gazing longingly at a woman’s portrait inside a locket. There’s even speculation that Warwick is Vander, Vi and Jinx’s adoptive father, transformed further rather than killed by his sacrifice in the opening chapter. League of Legends players spotted the silhouette of a wolf creature known as Warwick in the shimmer laboratory run by the shrouded character known to gamers (but only called “doctor” in the show) as Singed, who created the beast in the lore of the game. The show has also localized its narrative to the twin cities of Piltover and Zaun with only hints of the expansionist nation of Noxus, and as such, only League of Legends champions from these locations have been explored (with the exception of that initial glimpse of Ryze, the mage who saved Jayce and his mother).Īrcane season 2 should probably continue this trend before widening its scope, and certain hints indicate it probably will.
ARCANE LEAGUE OF LEGENDS CHARACTERS FULL
The good news is that Arcane has already excelled at pacing itself when it comes to revealing champions in their full power, allowing its main characters to be featured using recognizable in-game weapons while keeping its supporting cast in earlier stages of backstory development. But it’s inevitable that Riot Games will want to introduce new champions and that players will want to see them, and how they are integrated into the existing narrative will be a crucial factor in the show’s continued success among both gamers and non-gamers alike. They’ve never played the game and are content to follow Vi, Jinx, and others they’ve already met, and characters like Viktor and Ekko still have plenty of origin story left to tell. Half of Arcane’s audience couldn’t care less about seeing more established characters from League of Legends enter the story in season 2.
