Pssss did you see yhe new Arcane poster?👀 I don't recognize that Viktor

Yeeeeeeeeee

Ok so. Yeah.

This is definitely a shot of Viktor from season one. For one thing, his right hand is ungloved and is not augmented.

For another, his hair is shorter, closer to Act 1 than Acts 2 or 3.

Also, and very strangely, his crutch is on the wrong wide. But the mole above his lip is on the correct side, so it’s not a mirrored image.

Which leads me to the conclusion that this was probably photoshopped together from multiple images of him, possibly one where he was using his cane rather than the crutch, as he used the cane on the right side. Either that or they just thought, presentation-wise, that it looked better on the right and no one would notice (laughs in crazy obsessed bitch).

I’ve been scouring images from season one, and I haven’t yet pinpointed where this might be from. The only thing close is Viktor’s character poster from season one.

It has the shorter hair and almost the exact same expression (except in the new poster he’s looking at the camera).

Overall, I don’t think he’s going to look like this… at all in season 2. He’s going to have scars, he has to. Unless the Hexcore full on shielded him from Jinx’s rocket, which I suppose is a possibility. But mostly I think they threw together an old image of him to mislead us.

And my final thought that I will leave you with is this; thanks to the layering, we can’t see Jayce’s other hand. And I’d like to think…

i sincerely apologise for the person im about to become when arcane season 2 finally drops

haven't seen that meme yet

I’m still losing my absolute mind over the many ways they could change Arcane Viktor into his LoL form or at least make him a mid-point between their own original writing for arcane or mix it with the 2012-2016 League lore

Literally every time I see this scene I start thinking about how Viktor already seems so in control of the death ray lol -

Fr giggling and kicking my feet at this foreshadowing - like you can already tell he’s got good practice with it, especially with the way it’s being handled and the precision of the hermitdonger carving

I honestly like to think that he steals it along with a hextech crystal (just to par in with the original-ish lore between Jayce and Viktor’s argument),

Also judging from how ‘alive’ the hexcore itself seems and the way it’s got a good grip on Viktor it might be safe to say that it’ll have a pretty shitty effect on him mentally but Yk benefiting him physically - maybe that’s what’ll make him wanna go into his glorious evolution and feel nothing ..

ANOTHER THINGG

Blitzcrank eughhhh I’m not quite sure if he’ll be introduced/made by Viktor in Arcane tbh, but that’s all depending on how long this season will go for (pleaspleeaseplease be long I’m desperate) COUGCOUGH Urgot too maybe ? COUGH

I’m just really interested to see how he’ll go from This mf to this mf (I will still love him no matter what)

One thing I am praying they don’t do is turn Viktor into his modern LoL supervillain-like character who sends his mind-controlled chem slaves to go do the dirty work, I really don’t think it would fit in with his character or really compare up to the other antagonistic roles other characters have

Alr random ass talk session is done sorry guys I wanted to rant about the best boy
