Isha and Warwick's deaths in Arcane season 2 Act 2 will surely cast a dark shadow over the upcoming events in the next set of episodes. It's worth seeing how Jinx copes with the loss of her adopted sister and father figure. If the past is anything to go by, she will either go into self-blame or channel her rage against Piltover.

Furthermore, Jinx's emotional state will play a crucial role in her ability to lead Zaun to independence. Her tumultuous relationship with Vi will likely come to a head in the series finale. Also, if Vi continues her allegiance to Piltover, the truce between the sisters can lead to more friction in their relationship.


Do Viktor and Vander return for Arcane season 2 Act 3?

In season 2's final act, Jayce killed Viktor after discovering the true dangers of the Hextech technology. Viktor's return in Arcane season 2 Act 3 is highly speculated due to his deep connection with the magical powers of Hextech.

In Act 2 of Arcane, Singed's human-wolf hybrid, Vander/Warwick, died tragically. If Viktor is revived in Act 3, Vander might also return due to their shared connection to magic.

Meanwhile, Jayce returned from the Anomaly without Heimerdinger and Ekko, who are expected to reappear in the final chapter. As Jayce underwent a transformation upon his return, fans wonder if Heimerdinger and Ekko will experience similar changes. There's also speculation about Ekko gaining time-manipulation powers and whether his invention, the Zero Drive, will feature in the show.

Act 3 may also reveal where Jayce went and what he experienced inside the wild rune. Perhaps he was transported to a new dimension where he saw a dystopian future ruled by Hextech and was motivated to kill Viktor in order to put an end to it.

At the end of Act 2, Mel escapes from the clutches of the Black Rose after being kidnapped and tortured by the mysterious cabal. With her latent powers awakened during her escape, she may leverage it to give Piltover the upper hand in the battle or help broker peace between the two cities.

As seen in the preview for Arcane season 2 Act 3, Ambessa’s soldiers enhance their powers by consuming the drug shimmer. Thus, making the epic battle even more deadly and possibly costing the lives of several fan-favorite characters.
