This is something I’ve wanted to do since my first one, I have updated my character tierlist from s1 to s2 now that it’s finished! I always think these are fun so I just wanted to post them. As you can see my opinions on many characters changed quite a bit. Also these are in order, even for very minor characters. The “first” one is accurate to the one I made in 2022 when I first watched the show, I just remade it so the tierlists match.

ARCANE LEAGUE OF LEGENDS: Season 1 ↳ "Oh, the misery."

[silvercat-s]

I strongly disagree with the idea that silco's parenting only harmed jinx.

Jinx enjoys being strong, she likes feeling capable and in control and those things did flourished under silco's parenting. He believes in her, he supporters her 'hobbies' and he has complete faith in her potential and abilities (even when she fucks everything up for him).

Unfortunately, silco is a damaged man that sees softness as a weakness in their world, and as her father figure, this is a lesson he tries to instill on her constantly. He wants her to be as strong as he believes himself to be. y'know, the same way Vander tried to instill his own worldview and values in Vi? that's not grooming - its parenting.

The irony is that silco was never truly able to kill that softness in himself. he never really killed that 'weak man', despite the way he encourages Jinx to let Powder die, and if he had, he might have actually survived her.

It's less about Silco seeing jinx as this 'perfect weapon' to mold and more about him projecting himself onto her and trying to heal his 'inner child' in a Very fucked up way. Supporting her and teaching her all the hard lessons he feels like he had to learn on his own

So yes, it's a tragedy that Silco refused to see and nurture the 'powder' side of her, due to his own brokenness, and she did suffer for it. But he wanted her to be strong enough to thrive and survive in their fucked up world, and you can't deny that he did raised one hell of a powerful and capable young woman

The mines they kept us in.

Quick(ish) greyscale study because I wanted ti practice. I got tired midway and probably won't finish it. Posting it anyway because it's not so bad.

Yes I know that you shouldn't smoke in a mine, but there's no OSHA in Zaun.

Season 1 put such a heavy emphasis on the idea that Jinx and Silco were family. We saw them hug each other, we saw silco cradle her as a little girl, we saw her climb in his lap like she was a little girl, we saw silco kiss her forehead, and not only did we see all of this physical behavior, we also had tons of dialogue that backed up this theme.

"Who, Jinx? She works for him. She's like his daughter."

"Let's just say I didn't always see eye to eye with my old man. She'll come to you when she's ready."

"This is for your own sanity. I once had a daughter."

"fear haunts us all, child."

"Is there anything so undoing as a daughter?"

"You're my daughter Jinx, I'll never forsake you."

So clearly season 1 wants us to know that Jinx is Silco's daughter and Silco is Jinx's father. So why was this completely abandoned in season two? In season two, NO ONE refers to jinx as Silco's daughter, Jinx herself NEVER refers to herself as his daughter, and she never refers to HIM as her dad. No no on the contrary, when Vander comes back she's calling him dad left right and center despite the fact that she never called Vander dad when she was little, when he was still alive. This is so odd to me because I'm fairly sure that Jinx spent more time with Silco than she did Vander.

Happy (Shimmer) Holidays!

Even the chem baron can enjoy a sudden snow day with his family! Too bad his right hand lady decides to use this chance to have some revenge for all the bullshit she has to deal with

Imagine when Jinx bonds with Isha and truly cares about that kid, she's going to get double smacked by the realization that if this really how Silco felt about HER then he was really never going to give her up to Piltover or give up on her in general. Sure Silco affirmed this before he died but now Jinx's in the same position as him (and Vi). Now by bonding with Isha, Jinx can see that she was far crueler to herself than anyone that actually loved her (Silco, Vi, etc) was. So no matter how much she messed up Silco wasn't going to give up on her like she almost certainly won't with Isha. And it hits her like a truck that the way everything went down didn't need to happen the way it did last season.
