What to expect from the next episodes?
Noxians
One of the first images from the trailer shows Mel and Councilwoman Kiramman waiting for a big person to come down a vehicle. From the red clothing and the discipline, we can assume they are noxians. However, from the armor, we can see that they are not from the Trifarian Legion, which means one of two things about the possible Darius feature: he won't show up, since he is the legion's general, or he will show up and the legion doesn't exist yet, since it was created by Swain.
Viktor and Singed
With the revelation that Viktor is Singed's apprentice, we can expect to see the results of their partnership. Maybe we will see the importance of Rio, but I think Riot will leave this open. We might see that Viktor will become someone colder and more practical due to his interactions with the chemist. But it is almost certain that Singed will have his importance in the Glorious Evolution. The only question remaining is if we will see Viktor as a robot in Arcane.Jayce and Vi
In the trailer we will see that Jayce will forge his hammer and will team up with Vi to fight Silco. In this scene we already have both of them with their classic weapons. This must happen towards the end of this arc, in its final battle.
Conflicts on the Bridges
Through Marcus' manipulations, the bridges were closed. But we know that Vi will be able to go to Piltover to team up with Jayce, so we can assume that these barriers won't stop her. Maybe we will see the flashbacks from the last time there was a battle on these bridges, but maybe there won't be time in the last episodes for this.Ad
Caitlyn and Vi
The series gave plenty of signs that this couple is confirming itself. Vi flirted with Caitlyn all the time, maybe even casually joking around, but still there were plenty of scenes where there wassomething
between them. And Caitlyn has shown to be interested in women when they were at the brothel. So it might be that in the third act we will see this couple finally being confirmed.The Firelights
At the end of the series, we will see that the Firelights will have a lot of importance, at least in the first episode, since Caitlyn and Vi are with them now. We are yet to find out who their leader is, if it is really Ekko or someone else. His rescuing Vi is a clue that it might really be Ekko, but him being so hostile towards Jinx indicates otherwise. There is a possibility that is a bit too crazy that this is another version of Ekko, from a different timeline or something like that, which would explain his behavior and would still allow it to be a different champion.Conclusion
