Clancy and Viktor Are The Same Person

Tyler deciding to become a bishop to face Dema head on reminds me of the lyric from Not Today "I waste all this time tryin to run from you, I'm out of my mind." I see this as confirmation personally that he knows that continuing to only try to escape Dema isn't going to fix anything and is going to fight it from within

Additionally, Arcane leans heavily on color symbolism as well. I about lost it when they first entered the sanctuary and were surrounded by yellow flowers, though Viktor spends so much of his time in the astral, purples/indigos/blacks, until he encountered Vander where we were flooded with red. I also lean towards the first verse of the song actually being about Vander. I have said elsewhere, Viktor was never really repentant about what he was becoming while he was in motion, he was not ashamed of his 'final form' and did not care if anyone remembered who he was before. Hindsight is a hell of the thing, but until Ekko literally knocked some sense into him there was no remorse there. Vander on the other hand, he would have wanted to be remembered for who he had been and not the monster he was forced to become, and who had to ultimately be the sacrifice for the cycle to be completed. I love this show so much even though it hurts me so badly. >.

(jinx is not dead btw)

...Did you see the song link Reels? The final note when Clancy opens his eyes in Paladdin BEGINS the Line, and the closing piano of The Line, Opens Overcompensate! Forming a Circle! 💥 whoa!

Thanks for this. I don’t watch Arcane, but love hearing how the story intersects with Lore!

fun police here, this is incredible... for all of the wrong reasons, you are detained.

I don't think Tyler (Clancy) is Viktor in the Lore or Arcane. If the two are tied together I believe that Clancy is Jinx and Ekko is Torchbearer. Jinx wanted to break the cycle she kept repeating. Ekko saved her from that mindset. It's the same cycle her mentor Silco warned her of that would continue long after her and Vi were gone. So her only option was to walk away in the end. It's all there & there's some good theories on the Jinx ending that make sense to this idea.

arcane broke me I love arcane and hate it

this is kinda irrelevant but have you seen that for the line mv it's literally just viktor and tyler in the mv soo..

i don’t think that tourch bearer is Judas because it doesn’t make any sence for me
i think tourch bearer is jesus in that lore because if you think about it you maybe realise some conections: tourch bearer guide with tourch, guide=Jesus. and a lot more but one of my favorite is in video heavydirty soul tyler sings ,, can you save my heavydirty soul” just asking God for help aaaaaaaand tourch bearer spawn in the middle of the road- Jesus give himself and help us

I don't know the show and if I'll like it

They didn't do the art thing like they did with Imagine dragons

If you only knew.....
