Caitlin on her warhammer arc

eddie

Hey alicia, unrelated to Arcane. Do you already know when youre reacting to the next MCU movies?

It’s Sad seeing vi say don’t change but kaitlyn already did change

RF

The thing about urban warfare and insurgencies/terrorists is that you can't really win by regular old military might. Like, just taking from real world examples you just can't, It's a different ball game. Escalating that kind of conflict with militarist actions also doesn't really end the conflict. These types of situations have a hydra effect. Cait could've killed Jinx and maybe Vi could've saved the kid, but what do you think will happen to that kid after that? After seeing something like that go down with the look she gave Vi? Or all the other kids left over after every raid Piltover carries out. Fighting terrorism with pure militarist actions just makes more terrorists. It doesn't matter if you kill Jinx, you just end up making more Jinxes. The people of the underground have geniun griveness over how Piltover treats them (while Piltover went into a new gold age from the hextech gates, becoming wealther than it ever did the underground only became worse, none of that wealth or prosperity trickled down for example), some of them turn to terrorism, but combating it with pure force is pointless. It's kind of similar how punitieve justice isn't actually effective at combating crime, and why coutries that focus on rehabilitation have more success than places like the states. Continue escalation just leds to longer wars and further bloodsheed. Jinx exist because of the concils and by extation Piltover pretty much suck. Their innavility to uplift and unwilingess to help the people of underground. Unless these causes are address at their root it really doesn't matter how many Jinxes or Silcos they kill. EDIT: Bassically TLDR: Piltover can't win by just flooding the underground with enforcers and hextech weapons alone, not unless they are ready to just kill every single Undergrounder (again, see real life examples in just the last 60 years for that)

The biggest thing, I think, is that Caitlyn DIDN'T have the shot. She might have killed the kid which was what Vi wanted to prevent. If Caitlyn hadn't been so tunnel visioned on Jinx, she might have seen Slot Arm about to blow the place.

Bigboi2damax

It's surprising how you deduced that she orchestrated the attack at the memorial, but didn't realize she was gonna pick Caitlin. It's like he said, her name has power, and she likes power.

Ky McKenna

Maybe I'm weird, but I'm fully on Vi's side when it comes to preventing cait from possibly harming or killing a child, Jinx or not.

I love these first 3 episodes AND your reaction. thank you alicia! Im a little scatter brained right now so bare with me here. first of all a thing i think you missed in the finale is that this whole thing was jinx's suicide. you can see it in the way she RELAXES when vi has her pinned down. and when savika blows the vent she says "this isnt how its supposed to go!".

Adrian

Cassandra K: I made sure ventilation was built in the undercity to keep the Gray out because the people deserve to be able to breathe. Cait: Fuck that! Gonna use that toxic gas to poison the undercity air, harming countless innocents for the sole purpose of finding one person! Who cares if this rallies the Undercity against Piltover even more if it means getting Jinx am I right? Genuinely can't believe Vi of all people was okay with Cait releasing the Gray into the streets like that. Kinda like that Jinx redirected it right back into Piltover as (Intended "Final" because lets be real she fully planned to die in that fight) fuck you to topside.

them mommy issues finna hit like a truck with this Cait Ambessa thing

BakaSama

I really didn’t know what exactly to expect from this Season, beyond just a continuation of the civil unrest and Jinx storylines, but these first three episodes have blown all of it out of the water. I’m particularly interested in the Black Rose subplot and to see if I’m right it in getting the vibe that something very dangerous/bad is under the city.

Mr. Ewok

Shout out to Mr. Drunk Man for being the only real one for Vi at the end!

Mr. Ewok

Also, as an autistic human, I appreciate you doing 32:30, the noggin gets glitchy sometimes on social ques and such.

Julio Castillo

When LeBlanc and the Black Rose is involved.... you know shit's goin down. I don't think Elora was part of the Black Rose, if she was she wouldn't have been paralized the moment the Black Rose kidnapped Mel. A lot of fans suspected that Swain was the one who killed Ambessa's Son, turns out..... the actual culprit was much worse xddd. And i want to say..... by how things are developing so far..... Viktor has the best chances of becoming my favorite character of the show, just the design he had last episode with the long dark-blue robe and the enlarged cane to now use as a staff...... all the stuff involving him were cool as hell. Tho he's gonna have to be exceptionally written, because it's gonna be really hard beating my boy Silco as my favorite character.

Spicoli

Cait literally shot the gun out of the kids hand from across the room, how are we worried about her missing Jinx's head. Now how many do many do you think will be dead because Jinx is on the loose still? Also, did not expect the Black Rose to be pulling up so soon into this series.

Hawk

It don't even MATTER if Cait had the shot or not, y'all. Both seasons of this show have started with a young girl mourning the death of their parent figure. Drilling Jinx in Isha's arms - in what universe would that end it? How many rounds do y'all need to see a cycle?

Mae

Just noticed the falling petal mirroring Caits moms funeral right b4 Cait shoots the mirror. God this show is so freaking awesome

Mae

Also the fact that powder/jinx was fully intending for this to be her last stand is heartbreaking. “Finish what is left of my family” she wants the tie btwn her and vi to be finally severed and to die. And for the painting of piltover to be the capstone.

TheRealLoRider

I'm team Caitlyn, I trust her with the shot

Mae

Alicia defending all the beans and calling Ambessa’s BS

Lt. Jolumbo

It wasn't about trusting her with the shot, she was telling VI to get away from her before VI had chance to restrestrained jinx or take the girl away. VI could have handled it better but she was totally in the right.

Trystan

Not gonna lie, as much as I love the writing and Cait and Vi's relationship, the constant up and down drama is starting to get pretty annoying imo. Almost feels like a manga author just shitting out conflict just to stretch things out. I'm really glad other plot points are starting to develop, I'm super hyped about Warwick (the teaser was actual what made me watch season 1), I just hope the focus will be a lot more on the new storylines and we won't have to endure Jinx drama for another entire season.

Nick

i know it probably wont happen but seeing the Black Rose getting involved have me hyped for LeBlanc (or any other character connected with them)

Rx1867

Cait missing would have been less dangerous than her hitting. Her rifle went through a metal plate Vi was able to use as cover against Jinx's minigun. If she'd gotten a headshot, it would have killed both Jinx and the kid.

Azel !!

Ngl jinx not getting killed multiple times now because of silly character plots is starting to get annoying. I get the story is 'centered' around her too but plot armor is annoying in animes for a reason.

WillGlacier

It's so cool to see people actually worshipping/ talking about Janna. I completely forgot she is a wind spirit living in Piltover and Zaun

WillGlacier

Holy shit seeing the Black Rose legit makes me think the next series has GOT TO BE in Noxus ! (and if it is. PLEASEEEE give me swain origin bro has such a cool bio! Might learn more about the pact he made with Raum)

Spacefrog

I can't decide if the kid is playing dress up, or if they really are Teemo in disguise.

Emaliar

the thing i loved most in this episode that mr shild boy is going out of the room with pure disgust to the war situation i feel a backstory about he was on the bridge war or somthing

Lance Ivy

today on vtuber news vtuber alica unsure about her position on domestic violence lol

nervouspirate

Ok no one call me hater, I love this show and almost everything about it is a 10/10, but the soundtrack is kinda ass right? Am I the only one? The show’s like 60% music videos and most of the songs are straight up dookie.

Verdigree

If you look closely a the opening, you may notice a number of times black roses appear :)

Liesmith

A little off-topic, but I love the new background. The li'l rats eating cheese look like they're watching Alicia's screen and enjoying the show along with her.

jdoggivjc

The art style change combined with the song at the beginning was so sick.

Dain Greywall

Lest the trans queen <3 god damn her character and voice is amazing.

Obie

There was no way Caitlyn could be trusted to make that shot. Especially when she's so exhausted she was struggling to stand without leaning on something, and when their weapons were, for lack of a better term, "glitching".

Jathby Dredas

8:02 - did you seriously almost say "Spoilers."

LittleMoist

and so completes Caitlyn's descent into inarguably the title bearer of "the worst"

Randomocity732

the only thing I don't like is the modern pop music, it rips me out of the show each time. Otherwise, I love this show

Dynahier

OK hot take: Caitlyn is right and Vi should have let her shoot. "But what if she missed?" She shot the gun out of the childs hand without hurting them. And additionally, Vi could have pulled the child away EASILY with her gauntlets on. And even if the child got hurt, I remind you how nonchalant Vi reacted to the death of the kid Jayce killed: "One dead kid? There’s hundreds more where he came from, thanks to Silco and thanks to people like you who stuck their heads in the dirt." KInda stuck your head in the dirt Vi

slavicandsapphic

Cassandra: The people of the underground deserve to breathe Caitlynn: how bout nah

Vegvisir92

if Cait had taken that shot, Isha would just become the next Jinx
