This looks like Arcane animation style.

Actually, no. On a close up it looks more as a painting. 2D art and not a cinematic?

HYPE Train!

The image is 2D.

The shorts are always 2.5D.

Imagine if it turns out its just a desktop wallpaper or smth of Xal smirking yet again lmao

[Makorus]

It obviously is a tease for the animated shorts. We've got three weeks until the expansion so it makes sense.

Good. We could use the hype.

Hopefully the short will shade some light about Xal'athat past.

[Mekkle]

[Foreign Exchange Ztudent]

Are any of these recolors available to Earthen?

I only see the blue and gold variant in the wardrobe.

Anyone seen this one? It's a really good speculation vid about the Titans actually being behind the First Ones and the Shadowlands.

This is madness.

Even worse, imagine if it's a trailer about Xal but she barely features in it and only shows up at the end, smirking, of course.

For a character that's supposed to be our next big villain, they've done an awful job of showing anything related to Xal, so far at least.

I like the idea of the First Ones being a scam invented by the Titans to divert blame from themselves being the reason the Shadowlands are the way they are.

Additionally, they can pretend they are "special to the First Ones" to elevate themselves as needed.

This could even be the reason they apparently have a special connection to their Zereth while Zovaal got banished for messing with his: only they are allowed to play with them. Because they made them.

I saw the video. I know this might sound typical of me, but I genuinely do not like it. A lot of things in the video are straight nonsense and after chatting with the creator of the video on it, the video itself is simply based around wishful thinking due to them not really liking the idea of the First Ones being above the Titans.

The video itself is kinda silly too, with the theory that the Titans created the First Ones as "arcane entities of pure geometric design" or that places such as Zereth Mortis and Zereth Vitae were created within the Twisting Nether (which is silly as the Nether, based off current lore, is implied to be the realm of Disorder and most likely has its own Zereth workshop behind it).

What "special connection" to their Zereth are you talking about? Cause nothing in the game implies the Titans have a special connection to Zereth Ordus whatsoever

This is a video from one of Pyromancers followers. It is nearly as mad as his own stuff.

I'm by far not against speculations, but Pyromancer and his fans take their speculations into conspiratory directions that are too mad to take serious. Like, since the introduction of domination magic, whenever somewhere are some runes it is always "THAT IS DOMINATION!!!", instead of considering that it is just normal runes. Like, the one image that shows sargeras before he became the leader of the burning legion where he wields a sword with blue runes and has blue runes on his stuff. It is just arcane runes. Nothing with dominiation. More often then not, stuff is at their face value what it is until proven different.

Second time I've seen this, don't know much about LoL characters, could you elaborate how this eye closeup reminds you of what appears to be a Warrior-type character? Cause otherwise it feels like this is drawing on very superficial comparisons of two "mighty female" characters.

Of course there's nothing new under the sun, and media openly steals from each other, but we gotta stop with these silly comparisons of characters that have nothing to do with each other.

What "special connection" to their Zereth are you talking about? Cause nothing in the game implies the Titans have a special connection to Zereth Ordus whatsoever

Well, the Titans have been to Zereth Ordus, but I rather understood that as them being invited there, to be taught, "educated" about the ways of Order.

[Chickat]

I can't recall the last time i actually did that.

I mean most classes that cant heal need to eat occasionally.
