"You are no Medarda" spoken by Mel, and getting bestowed "you are the Wolf" by Ambessa is perhaps the most brutal slaughter sight of character assassination I've witnessed since ages.
#Arcane S02 negativity#Mel Medarda#Mel ready to leave behind the Medarda name for her own principles and beliefs was good#because leaving behind her legacy meant leaving behind the need to proove herself in Piltover to stick it to Ambessa.#Her voting in favour of an independent was a vote for peace and not Piltover's glory.#And let alone Mel is character brimming with capability for pacificism persuasion and political saviness.#That's why I loved her so much not golden laserbeams which aren't explained unless one plays LoL.#Mel's fox principles triumphing over mercilessness and pure brutality as statecraft should've shown mercy understanding and compromise#create a much better safer future. (Something something breaking the cycle of violence.)#Whereas S01 established that the Medarda name stood for ruthlessness and Mel tried to reframe that legacy.#But what attachment should Mel than have to the family name if she was ready to be her own person free of the burden to prove herself?
