A Small Detail Hinting at T1 and Gen.G in Arcane 2
After a while since its release, the series Arcane 2 has reached its final episodes. However, for some viewers, the last episode hasn’t completely resolved the issues that the film hinted at, and there may be at least Arcane 3 in the future. Nevertheless, Riot has cleverly embedded some interesting elements, including a detail that references T1, Gen.G, and many other teams.
Specifically, in one scene from the last episode of Arcane 2, viewers see a giant clock. But instead of numbers, it displays the logos of teams that have won the World Championship throughout history, as well as the top teams globally.
However, while teams like T1, Fnatic, Damwon Gaming… (which have actually won the World Championship) appear in the inner circle, DRX is left out, and next to T1’s logo is Gen.G’s logo.
Notably, DRX’s championship has been likened to one of the most miraculous titles in League of Legends history. They were not highly regarded but managed to defeat a series of past champions, including the mighty T1 of 2022, to claim the crown. Yet, it’s unclear why Riot has seemingly “downplayed” this team.
Fans Are Engaging in Heated Debates About the Arrangement of T1 – Gen.G
Although Riot (perhaps) has recognized the two championships of Samsung Galaxy in the past as belonging to the current Gen.G, the exclusion of DRX to the outer circle and placing it next to teams that have never won the World Championship has left many viewers upset.
Moreover, T1 has established its title as “the greatest team in League of Legends history” with 5 World Championship titles and 2 successful defenses of this title, yet they are ranked alongside teams like Fnatic or DWG, causing many to feel uneasy.
However, it seems unavoidable that the center of the clock is a detail related to the film rather than League of Legends in general. Therefore, the appearance of team logos as easter eggs makes more sense than being a main detail in the film.
