Ambessa

Ambessa continues to pull strings from the shadows after she makes Caitlyn commander at the end of the first act. She feels that the Black Rose is behind the disappearance of her daughter Mel and Piltover scientists Jayce and Heimerdinger, preventing her from using Hextech. She uses Rictus and the Noxian army to ambush a rally in Zaun and capture many Zaunities with Singed among them.

Singed caught Ambessa’s interest and they began working together after making a deal where she wanted to take control of the bloodhound Warwick and in return make him a valued advisor. She asked Singed to lead her to the beast, and he did so by guiding her to Viktor’s camp using his invention. Ambessa also taught Caitlyn melee combat, which she used to take down Vi later in the act.

After finding Viktor’s place with her followers in the Undercity, Ambessa sets up camp to attack Viktor and take the beast. She caught Vi, but she realized late that Caitlyn was setting her up. After Warwick is freed in the last episode, he kills her best man Rictus and she uses her army to take down all the other characters in the camp.

Caitlyn

After her fallout with Vi, Caitlyn finds a new partner in Maddie and continues to find her way in Piltover. She is recovering from her mother’s death, which has also led to her regaining her logic over overwhelming emotions. While Ambessa pressures her to put an end to the Zaunite resistance, she still doesn’t believe that violence is the answer to peace between the two places.

After Warwick kills many enforcers on the way to the prison, Caitlyn visits the prison cell with Ambessa to confront Singed. After speaking with him, she realizes that Singed was the one removed from Piltover’s science council, and she becomes angry with him for inventing the Shimmer, which has ruined the lives of many people living in Zaun. Caitlyn captures Vi near Viktor’s camp and makes a plan with her to save Warwick and betray Ambessa to protect her people.

Jayce

After his strange encounter with the underground gem net in Act 1, Jayce has aged considerably and is now being controlled by the voices in his head. He also sees Salo leaving and talks to Viktor through him, but he is adamant that Hextech must be destroyed. Jayce walks up to Salo and hammers him down to kill him while using Viktor’s Hextech energy to leave. That’s not even the most shocking thing he’s done in this act.

Later, he visits Viktor’s camp in the undercity and almost kills a child his way using his weapon, but he stops himself. Out of the kindness of his heart, the boy guides Jayce to the Herald, which is another name for Viktor. After entering Viktor’s camp, Jayce notices Viktor flying up and he shoots him down.

Heimerdinger and Ekko also do not mysteriously appear in the second act, but they may play a significant role in the final act.

Jinx

Jinx has been relatively less chaotic after spending her time with Isha. After being saved by Vi in her last encounter with Caitlyn, she has moved on from her past. That is until Sevika comes to her and tells her how she has become an icon in Zaun. People are forming a resistance and they need her to show up. She shows up to rescue the Zaunites after they are captured by the Enforcers, only to meet Warwick and realize he is Vander.

She approaches Vi and they both look to meet. Warwick begins looking for a solution to return him to Vander. They bring him to Viktor, but he can’t fix him right away as he is more complicated than others to heal. As she grows closer to Vi, their relationship becomes stronger than ever. In the cliffhanger ending scene of the second act, Isha grabs her gun and takes the Hextech beads from her and Vi’s weapons to cause a huge explosion.

If Isha sacrificed her life here, it would be interesting to see the impact on Jinx’s mind as she grew close to her while staying together, almost treating her like a little sister.

We

We didn’t break up with Caitlyn and has gone completely goth in her fashion style and fights in the dens of the undercity to spend her days. One day, Jinx shows up at her place and tells her that Vander is alive. The sisters team up and try to find a cure to fix Warwick and turn him back into the man they know. However, she tries to follow Singed back to Ambessa’s camp and is tackled to the ground by Caitlyn.

They later hatch a plan to trick Ambessa into not releasing Vi and present her as bait for Ambessa. We hit Ambessa at the right time to knock her down and escape her camp to run back to Viktor. By the end of the second act, Vi has clearly come to terms with his current self and feels complete with his family until the explosion caused by Isha.

Victor

Viktor parted ways with Jayce and began healing the Shimmer addicts in the undercity, his following reaching new heights as a peaceful community surrounded his place. They call him the Herald as he cured many people’s ailments, including Sal from the council who lost his ability to walk after the first season. He meets Warwick and already understands his vision of uniting Zaun as a worthy reason to return him to Vander.

Slowly healing Warwick, he was reminded by Singed that human nature cannot be repaired and uttered the words League fans were waiting to hear: “Glorious Evolution.” After that, Jayce killed him in the undercity to stop the use of Hextech, but he may not have died as he still spoke in the afterlife, understanding the true meaning behind humanity’s greatest asset and flaw. The final act could also revive him back to the mechanical form that League players know and love, but Riot could take a completely different path with his story.

Sing

If you missed Singed due to lack of screen time in the first act, the second act not only satiates your hunger, but also gives you the reason for his disappearance: Warwick. More on the bloodhound next, but Singed appeared near Vander’s statue during the convention, and he had a small shrapnel that he used to cut his hand. Although he was captured and transported to Piltover Prison, he continued to spill his blood, leading to a trail for Warwick to follow and kill the Piltover enforcers around him.

He began working with Ambessa and Caitlyn to give them access to Warwick, and he also revealed the purpose of the experiments, which was to revive his daughter from the dead.

Warwick

The theories have indeed come true and now it is confirmed that Vander is Warwick in Arcane. The bloodthirsty dog ​​is out on the streets of Zaun, following the scent of blood. Warwick looks a little different than his in-game image, but that’s because there’s still Vander inside him. He also hugs Vi and Cait as he finally realizes they are his daughters through regained lost memories. Hoping to find a cure, Warwick goes with Jinx and Vi to Viktor’s camp.

When Jayce puts a hole through Viktor’s chest and Isha fires the overloaded Hextech weapon, causing an explosion, Warwick’s future in the series is up for debate.

Honorable Mentions: Orianna and LeBlanc

As Singed worked with Ambessa and Caitlyn, he also showed them that the reason behind his work was to try to find a way to revive his daughter. Ambessa also found his pocket watch while in prison, which showed his daughter’s face. They also referred to him as Reveck, confirming his connection with Orianna as a father according to tradition.

Once Singed leads them to the room with his daughter, we can see a statue of the Ballerina on the side, which is an easter egg showing what Orianna will become in the future, making her the Lady of Clockwork. According to lore, Orianna’s body is replaced by metal, and her father, Corin Reveck, turns her into the ball, which is her weapon in the game.

The Black Rose continues to wreak havoc and they capture Mel to find the artifact. As Mel talks to the person next to her, she realizes that the person is her brother, Kino. However, she understands that there is a puzzle that she must solve in order to escape the prison, and that’s when she realizes that LeBlanc was looking for him and that Ambessa had a daughter with a soldier in her previous life. Mel uses the mysterious golden artifact on her back that used to survive Jinx’s rocket to break free from the Black Rose’s chains.

It’s clear that the Black Rose wants that artifact or something similar from Mel, and now that they know it’s her, the final act could see LeBlanc make his final move to create the future of the stories coming from Runeterra after Exciting.

First and second act of Arcane’s the second and final season is currently streaming on Netflix. The last act of Exciting falls on 23 Nov.
