That decision led to multiple musical performances and resimulations of Piltover and Zaun, where a new era of the animated Netflix series happens, but with the creation of unique animations that help the audience understand the center of the show. The opening of the show was a great opportunity to reach beyond the usual League of Legends esports audience and explore the entire cultural conversation, said Nick Troop, executive producer of League of Legends and Wild Rift Global Esports. Also, while dedicated viewers understand who Jinx and Vi are, it’s not all about them to know their personality as sisters. What we wanted to take was easily known themes and extract those that were put into the story that we told this year, told Intold Tales. I guess it’s not possible to put in a pre-enthusiastic clip throughout the show. The creative team said they should be allusioned to their relationship rather than show exactly what happened between Jinx and Vi. The opener began with a resemblance of a happy, sibling relationship for the duo. But as the whole process progressed, Troop said they should reinforce the dynamic in which Jinx and Vi continue to like each other and not share, regardless of the conflict between them. You can try to bend existing tape, but ultimately you just ended up with an euthanasia expression. Basically the show is too damn good to do that, said Troop. Instead, this is about. Let’s do these unique moments that drive the message out of the story we want to tell. As an example, while the creative team tried to create a visual representation of the Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde traits that are central to Jinxs character in Arcane, Troop said that it isn’t as important as being able to show that’s part of her character. You look for things that will still be sufficiently cohesive to people, even if you don’t say anything, said Troop. We turned it into a simple outline, sat in a show, for Arcane, and said that would be the story. Troop said he made this outline after watching the series at least five times before the planning began and added that the showrunners for Arcane applauded more of the new clips and the enthusiasm they spent years creating brought to life more of the world. The first three episodes of Arcane start on Saturday at 10 o’clock. On Netflix, the day after Worlds 2021 is over.
