Only Necrit can get a 15 minute video out of a 10 second clip of something we theorised years ago.

I've been playing League of Legends since SEASON ONE, but I attribute 99.9% of the League lore I've learned over the last couple years to solely Necrit and his videos! The actual game doesn't really tell you much about the world of Runeterra.

Really like the ‘Orianna being singed’s daughter’ theory. Singed is doing all this experimentation to find a method of curing his daughter but what if he eventually turns to Viktor (just as Viktor asked singed for help in s1) for help. Because Viktor will turn his eroding body into machine singed might ask him to do the same for his daughter.

Video: nothing but sounds yet Necrit: AHA! LORE

The blood infusion might have another effect, in the game Warwick is known for hunting for blood, so by giving Warwick Singed's blood he might be making him think of him as an ally or family or something like that and thus saving him in case of Warwick breaking free (which he probably will)

Singed is a nickname i assume comes from his recent appearance so he could very well be Oriannas father.

Singed is my favorite character from season 1. I REALLY hope they don't turn him into a full-blown villain - he is much more interesting in the show as is.

They could tweak the timeline a little with Ionia. Have the invasion go for years, then now Singed is contracted. His weapons turn to be so devastating that even the pacifists in Ionia decide that enough is enough and join the war. At the same time, the land reacts strongly against the Noxians after suffering a huge wound The result is that the war ends

The tanks that Singed’s blood is channeling into is reminiscent of a heart that has four chambers. I imagine the green chemical is some sort of healing steroid. It would explain Warwick’s rage and Singed’s insanity as steroids can cause some psychosis.

When you hear the ragged breathing at the beginning in the dark, it sounds like vander when he's breathing at the end of his fighting. Also I believe that shimmer is a product of Rio from the very beginning.

The "main dangling experiment" is what Singed mains will call their manhood from now on

I honestly think the vgu of the arcane character for league will be orianna, with her potentially being singed daughter then maybe the new vgu will include voicelines between her and singed

Total: Singed's motivation for creating Warwick can be found in his story on League's website. In it, he seeks to create both a "brute" and a "thinker" and ultimately merge them together. It's crucial to remember that Singed is also driven by the pursuit of prolonging his and his daughters life

If Orianna will be Singed's daughter, there is a chance Viktor will be the one to make her mechanical body alive. Maybe he'll make Blitz early in season 2, then start to make prosthetic for himself and for last two episodes Singed will ask him to give life to his daughter. Maybe Corin will make her robotic body? Too many "maybies" but I like to think this can be possible

Would it be possible for singed to use his blood as a way to make sure warwick doesnt hunt him because of his specific blood type? Feels like a pretty 'singed' thing to do

"Singed has one big achievement under his belt... A war crime"

I'm not surprised Ambessa will be very important for Season 2. It makes only sense that after the ending of Season 1, she would bring down the might of Noxus on the Chembarons. I really hope we are still under the reign of Darkwill, because that means getting an animated Ionian Invasion.

IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS 😭😍

The theory I proposed in season one is that the Ionian invasion happened in the time skip or during the beginning of arcane. That led to Swain swinging to the top of Noxus and purging the Nobility. That led to Mel's brother dying and her mother coming to Piltover to fight back against Swain. In my head that made most sense considering the old timeline, tho they might change the timeline completely. New theories. Chemtech will be developed, which will be less efficient than Shimmer, but has less side effects. Oriana might not be Singed's daughter, but still someone close to him (would like that more, but daughter would be much easier to follow). I'm guessing that Singed will fail regardless, but his problem will be solved with Victor's help. It would be a great link between the characters once again. I'd guess that the first step is Victor and Jayce creating Blitz and then they use their gained knowledge to go further. The Singed storyline will ultimately divide them tho and something there will turn them against each other. Probably some moral code or difference in ideals. Maybe this is thinking too far tho and we will stop this season after their first milestone, Blitz.

She shooting powder on my warwick till my screams ekko

I personally believed that Warwick is basically made to be Singeds ultimate "Bloodhound" while also being an experiment in terms of the "Rejuvenation" concept. The reason for why I believe that is that singed is maybe infusing Warwick with his blood in order to find his daughter and make warwick get used to the smell, the issue is that Warwick in his current state is not too hesistant of cutting ppl down although the several teasers and voice lines have shown that he does seem to be able to show mercy towards "innocent girls" which aligns up with his past self and thoughts about Vi and Jinx.

There is a huge missconception in this video. RIO wasnt being infused wuth shimmer, it was the source of the mutation. Singed said, the mutation MUST survive referring to keeping the rios ability to produce shimmer.

I’m interested to see the reasoning why he chose vander to be Warwick. Was it just because he was already almost dead and right in front of him or was there a more specific reason

7:38 "but why would singed do this?" My immediate thought wouldn't go to money, he still has plenty of prospects in zaun, outside of shimmer. But what can noxus provide that zaun or piltover can't? Revival of the dead amd extension of ones life; something noxus has shown they are very adept in, with sion and blood mages. I can definitely see Singed striking a deal with madarda to revive his daughter using noxus resources, in return he makes weapons for them.

You're one of the few creators that get me so excited to insta see their video on release!

He has done it again, when the world needed him the most.

theres also a possibility that orianna is the arcane inspired VGU we're getting next year. they might try to update her lore and appearance to match the fact that the original canon doesnt exist, and is replaced by Arcane

We don't know Singed's real name : he could be Corin Reveck, Orianna's father. Maybe Singed will ultimately fail to save her with his method, and Viktor will help him by turning Orianna into the cyborg we know. It could be interesting.

Ah man, i was really hope Sevika is the next champ, she looks so promising. Imagine one of her kit can change her from fighter to assassin with that blade and shimmer to empower stuff 😢

Maybe Viktor will help Orianna as a thanks to Singed for helping him in S1. Viktor will have his glorious revolution moment and then kind of "prove it" with Orianna, making it a sort of "the student has become the master" sort of deal between Singed and Viktor when it comes to their shared battle against mortality. It might not actually be what Singed wanted, having his daughter be a robot and all, so it could be a point of tension since Viktor would basically just be using Singeds daughter to prove how much smarter he is. It would fit very well with the sort of morally puranical revolutionary Viktor will probably become.

My theory is that Singed is infusing his own blood into Vander because he had already been experimenting on himself for years or even decades, and his bloodstream somehow has already assimilated the Shimmer to the point where it doesn't make him go mad (like Vander) or give him a rush (Jinx), Silco seemed to be somewhat accustomed to it too. Think of it as a "safeproof" way of making the Warwick transition faster, safer or even stronger.

i really hope they keep the link between noxus and singed, and the invasion of ionia cauze its really nice to see how it all goes together and is connected. If he really found a way to metigate shimmer and shimmer really is connected to the void maybe singed also has found or will find a way or a weapon against the void and the watchers ?

Victor goes mad for perfecting the human body, Jinx goes mad crazy, Vander (Warwick) goes mad becoming hungry for blood. The anti-shimmer works. But to the cost of their sanity.

Im actually quite surprised You didn't mention Chemtech at all. Green stuff being worked on by Singed seems as a perfect way to implement Chemtech being used in Zaun as it was supposed to be Zaun's cheaper answer for Piltover's Hextech. This season could show how Zaun all started to depend on Chemtech after seeing what Shimmer did to Silco, Vander, Jinx and the Council at Piltover. It just seems as a natural progression when one person has that incredible power and everyone wants to have it too for their own with cheaper or less safe ways. That would open door for characters like Urgot to appear in 3rd season but also for Singed to become the chemtech master who sold chemical bombs to Noxus. The Awaken story of Cait and Vi fighting Urgot could even be shown as they could become a duo fighting to protect their Cities for Shimmer and all its succession after what it did to their families. Basically, all the doors feel open for Riot as the story could go anywhere in any order as far as their hold to the timeline on bigger events. I may have forgotten or gone over some details so feel free to respond and correct me

I'm honestly amazed how nobody talks about a possible connection of the Void makeover of the Game and Arcane 2.

Also, I think it's safe to assume that the link between Noxus and Singed will be Ambessa. Her daughter is most likely dead from Jinx's attack on the council (The voice actress confirmed she's not a part of season 2, so Mel is gone), maybe she thinks she needs the upper hand on both Piltover and Zaun to prevent anything like losing her daughter from happening again. Cailtyn's mother is also most likely a goner.

Been waiting for this one, happened to refresh my sub feed 20s after the publishing of this video. Funny coincidence 😊

Interesting that chem tech seems to be a refinement on shimmer i think. Chem tech need not be one chemical, it could be any variety of chemicals. Can't wait to see how Viktor progresses in s2

It may not be worth mentioning, but some of the original Warwick lore had singed as Warwick’s apprentice. And that the two of them were foes to Ionia and Soraka. They might draw on sending Warwick to the frontlines of the Noxian war.

Dr Mundo will carry Arcane Season 2

I HOPE that Fortiche is getting paid what they deserve this time. They made animation history.

I just realize that Mel's paint of the Noxian ship looks just like the red sail in Saint-Petersburg Russia, which is a symbol for their high school graduation. This might be some hidden detail tell us more about season 2.

Something that is said in singed and ww story is that once singed found out that ww was alive and didn’t die, he says that he has to recover him somehow for "the next phase".... so maybe there are things that we don't know about singed plan. Maybe he wants to somehow control ww

I actually think the reason there is no shimmer around is that this is the invention of Chemtech

I popped off when I first heard the music box playing in the teaser. Orianna is my main in League, so I'd LOVE to see her in Arcane

maybe singed infused his blood in order for ww not to attack him in case he would bleed near him?? idk if that even makes sense but just put it out here ;P

Bro. While your videos are always good and fun, it's obvious you had A LOT of fun making this one ❤

I just realized the violin solo at the beginning of season 1 is just "What could have been" bridge slowed.

finally you drop this, i need my fix!

I knew It lmao no one can stretch content that much as our boy Necrit

Love this lore and your theorys😍

Thank you for making my day better

Singed created Shimmer and now he gonna make Quimtech the contrapart of Hextech

I have a slightly different theory, but along the same vein. I think that Shimmer is a precursor to ChemTech, Zaun’s answer to HexTech. Warwick, and a lot of other places you would see ChemTech in we got Shimmer instead for Arcane S1. I think instead of the green being an antidote, it’s the next step that Singed has found. Since Vander was almost dead and took Shimmer as a last minute performance booster to save Vi, the next step is a sustained life from the brink. Or even death

Hmm, is Singed's backstory stablished in arcane? Can't remember now, but it could retconned so his actual name is Corin Reveck, Orianna's original father in the lore. This would at least tie up their lores more closely to their old counterparts. I could see a younger Singed getting expulsed for trying to make a cure for his daughter in piltover, as far as I remember his original story is similar too.

i hope they expand in s2 to places outside of piltover/zaun; doesn't have to be much, just start planting the seeds a little and not even because of impatience, i just don't know that they have enough material in the region to sustain an entire season, primarily because of timelines and character progression etc. don't just have a bunch of time-skips pls. haha that said, i have full trust in the team that they'll make a banger follow up; whatever they do will be exceptional, no doubt great breakdown, my man. looking forward to the next one by the end of the week. lmao

"You clearly dont own an air fryer" face as the thumbnail

Oh the invasion to ionia ... when u mention about the children as weapons, it hurts My poor boy Kayn 😢

I started playing the game 2 months ago and I watched the show when it came out (I was 10 now I’m 13) and I am more than excited about the new season. I’ve been waiting for a long time!! But the thing I’m most excited for is to see if they show more of the relationship dynamics between jinx and vi. I’m not entirely sure if they will show them but they might. I hope they show at least around 10 minutes of them.

This was a great warm up video for the 2 hour long TBskyen video where he talks about animating on twos

If they add Orianna I will be so happy! Orianna being Singed's daughter is also an interesting new theory

I assumed the green stuff stuff was Chemtech. I thought that singed possibly found a way to make a synthetic, more versatile from of shimmer and that was why the teaser had such a green hew. Like how season one had a very piltover/hextexh stylized theme. I wondered if season 2 might have a zaun/Chemtech stylized theme. I don't know but I'm excited to find out more!

Rio - Ori. Grasping at sraws but damn that would only make all of this sadder for me

Im so hyped for November

11:00 Singed "moral" is like Noone gonna seek and i have excuse xD

I found someone last year still talking about arcain 1. He was talking about it over the years it's nuts

1:47 because you're good at it. Also loved the way you kept looking down at the progress bar of the video 😂

I dont see anyone commenting this but.. I think what he is doing is similar to hemodialysis with the green tank... there is a medical procedure where doctors stop your heart and put something other than blood in your veins (idk because im not a doctor)... and then perhaps he is infusing the green liquid with blood so warwick can survive... the green thing can be also what creates dr mundo..it matches his history since he also wants to enhance the humankind (i think so)

Hear me now, I predict that the quote Jinx uses in the teaser for Arcane 2 "I'm glad it's you... Had to be you." is used against Warwick when she finds out who he is when she encounters him. That is what I think and have been saying ever since the teaser got out. Pls tell me what you think of it. Could it be?

Wait was Singed trying to help Rio? I always assumed the show was trying to say that Singed was the one who put Rio in that state at the end of season 1.

I don't see people talk about this but Signed and Medarda have a very easy link between them. - Noxian invasion of Ionia used Signed's weapons. - Medarda came to look for weapons but won't get any from Piltover. - She will go looking in Zaun and find Singed who just lost Silco's backing and is in need of another. - Singed will agree to help Noxus by developing weapons.

One step closer to the glorious evolution.

I think what'll happen is that Singed would most likely get in contact with Ambessa in some way and that'll be a way we can get the Singed we all know and love that gassed Ionia (I haven't watch the rest of the vid yet so I dunno if you talked about that past 6:34 XD) It would also probably lead into a connected series that'll dive into the Noxian invasion on Ionia. That would be hype for alot of reasons, 2 being the brothers and Riven

Oh Necrit, you mad lad!

necrit said why is there so much time as i checked how much time was left I LOVE THIS GUY

I always thought shimmer came from Rio, not that it was used to help Rio. We see Rio suspended in a tank when Viktor goes to see Singed, and it looked to me like they were pumping stuff out of Rio, not into. I thought they were farming Rio for Shimmer. Which, if Shimmer no longer exists, it could be because Rio died. Anyways, I agree with the Singed = Ori's dad theory, and he'll give the chemical weapons to Mommy Medara to help find a cure. Now i hope Singed is the updated character for League since hes furthest from what hes supposed to be in Arcane

Perhaps Singed and Corin Reveck met at some point, Corin made Orriana but singed infused his daughter with the automaton made by Corin.

Vander is warwick for sure.... Jinx friends aswell at the start of the series(the orphans), one of the is defs Twitch

I was waiting for this video ^^

We saw hints about Warwick, Singed and Orianna. Teaser explained in one sentence. there u go

Glad s2 seems like it'll have more Singed since he's one of my favorite characters. Although I'm a little sad my other favorite Zaunite isn't likely to show up any time soon, that being best boi Mundo.

I just realized the chamber rio is held in is green which could foreshadow singe's breakthrough

pls Riot release some short stories or any lore for this man this is getting out of hand

love the part where you look down at and mention the video time haha

can’t wait to see Ambessa be Noxian Fiora, paralleling Garen and Darius

My guess is Singed’s first attempt with shimmer or any type of Chemtech WILL work on Warwick or whoever else he’s expirementing on, BUT it’ll lead him to believe that it will work on her but it won’t, it might make it worse which would lead him to take her to Viktor where she would get body replacement with Hextech.

You should start a podcast i love listening to you before sleeping

Ionia invasion already happened in Arcane. Ambessa obviously have connections with Zaun, possible with Singed as well.

what about the spike machine on warwicks back? that makes him go rage mode, how would that tie in to the healing theory? i could be miss remembering but wasnt the idea always that warwick has that spike on his back that makes him bloodthirsty and enter a sort of blind rage? what if warwick is a weapon of mass destruction made for noxus by singed?

I think it would be cool to see singed fail with shimmer ultimately and viktor took the experience and step on the true pathway of glorious evolution to harness hextech and build orianna for singed

I think the metal sounds in warwick theme's are supposed to reference the big clock tower (forgot the name). They sound like bells ringing.

If they do a timeskip its still possible to keep the singed experimentation as Warwick flashbacks,

I'm just going out on a limb here but I'm almost 100% sure Orianna, Singed, and Camille are going to end up being tied together in Arcane. Camille's lore is likely to end up being retconned timeline wise due to how long she's had her hextech heart vs how new the technology is to Piltover and I'm also absolutely positive that we'll get another series with a different title for the other region.

Oh man I can't wait to dive deeper and deeper into the League universe. So great

So if Vander turns into a werewolf after his shimmer is removed with chemtech, could it be that Rio turns into Chemtech drake when she receives the treatment?

1:20 LMFAO, guess Riot gotta get that ESG score up hahaha

3:26 chills

I love Necrit! Whenever he puts out a new video, I can leave the stress of being a grown up behind for a few minutes and just enjoy pure escapeism into my favourite lore (well ok, I do love me some Warhammer, too)

They could also give us a flashback where singed creates the formula and does it like Oppenheimer and regrets it but creates a new one later for the funds or something like that.

To add to the creepy body horror vibes, the silhouette of warwick hanging there with his arms out looks a lot like a uterus.
