"League of Legends's" "Arcane" on Netflix was a massive hit and it featured two colorful characters of Vi and Jinx with a not so sunshines and rainbows backstory to their upbringing. However, the duo's appearance on the series was not a coincidence or random for their feature as the show creators reveal the reason for their upbringing to the mainstream media.

Arcane creators Christian Linke and Alex Yee were also the duos behind Vi and Jinx in the Summoner's Rift, especially as they also brought the first cinematics and music videos for the sisters. However, a report from Engadget explores more of why the creators chose the duo for its debut in the Netflix series.

Linke and Yee said that Vi and Jinx were their biased characters in the game and that is one of the main reasons why they were the stars of the show. The Champions are also the ones they think that would stick around in the years to come, as the duo leads the show's production and development as the series continues. 

Vi and Jinx are also the focus of both the creators of the Summoner's Rift.

However, Linke and Yee do not close the book on other characters to come on "Arcane" from "League of Legends," and it will develop in the years to come.

Other lore and warring kingdoms are also present here, like Demacia versus Noxus, the Frejlord, Ionia, and not to mention, the Void. 

Champions are waiting around to be introduced in the coming seasons, and it would give "Arcane" and fans what it asks for from the gaming company. 

Netflix's Arcane and its Success 

The hit animated show from Riot Games and Netflix brought back the popularity of "League of Legends" to younger audiences and those unfamiliar with the popular MOBA game. Despite the game debuting in 2009, it has given the world a new style to play, compared to previous titles and similar ones that are now available for gaming. 

"Arcane's" success is not only rooted in its lore and popularity in the game, as it is a media of its own and brings certain elements that can stand alone from the popular title. It is confirmed for a Season 2 that would continue the story of Vi and Jinx, the popular Zion sisters that faced catastrophe during the age of war with Piltover. 

Netflix is thrilled to have "Arcane" on its library and it remains a series that wowed the audience and brought a massive consumption despite releasing towards the end of the year. 

Vi and Jinx are returning for a second season and it continues the story of the sisters and the war for Piltover and Zion. However, fans want more and they want it fast from both Netflix and Riot Games.
