On July 21, on the occasion of the second anniversary celebration of the League of Legends mobile game national server, the highly anticipated second season of the animated series "Battle of Two Cities" released a new trailer video. The protagonists this time are Ike and Heimerdinger, who will perform a "stealth mission" in the new season. Although this video only lasts for more than 50 seconds, the atmosphere presented is relatively relaxed. The great inventor we are familiar with obviously watched too many spy movies and wanted to be addicted to undercover special services. He and Ike came to an important room in Piltover and sneaked into it through the ventilation duct.
This clip is content that has never been shown before. It also indirectly confirms that the two popular characters from the first season will return in the second season of "The Battle of Two Cities". This infiltration operation was led by Heimerdinger. He took advantage of the yordle's short stature to carefully explore the ventilation ducts. Ike said sarcastically, "Isn't this your territory?" Apparently the place they wanted to sneak into was Piltover, and Heimerdinger was a member of the Piltover Council in the first season, but he ended up Choosing to leave that position of power.
After detecting that the guard had left, Heimerdinger also used League of Legends content to make jokes, saying that "the red buff has left the jungle", while Ekko reluctantly said that he should not think of passwords next time. Sara guessed that the two men came to the heavily guarded Pi City room this time, which was probably Jace's laboratory. They came to steal the Hex Crystal. The core of Ike's character is the Z-drive. This device can travel back in time and can be said to be a powerful prop at the level of "The Flash". Ike once abused this power, affecting the timeline and his future self.
In the early background story of Ike, one night, Ike went alone to explore the ruins of a recently bombed laboratory and discovered a blue-green crystal fragment with magical light, which was a sea with the potential to change the world. kes crystal. After Ike returned home, he conducted fanatical experiments on the crystal. In a not-so-scientific attempt, the crystal exploded and formed a vortex, triggering a cyclone that distorted time. Ike saw many branches of reality, and he finally harnessed the power of time and space through a device that could control a short period of time.
However, because "The Battle of Two Cities" rewrote the setting of Zaun in Piltover, the origin stories of many heroes were invalid. At least in the plot of the first season, Ekko did not yet have a Z-drive device. But in the Easter egg at the end, Ike met Heimerdinger who came to Zaun. The two genius inventors hit it off and they set out to develop a new device. It is very likely that it is a Z-drive, and if you want to develop this thing, you will need the power of the Hex Crystal. That's why in this video, we see Ike and Heimerdinger sneaking into Piltover, they are here to steal Jace's treasure.
Heimerdinger admired Jace's talent and had witnessed the development of Hex Crystal. Moreover, he was more familiar with Piltover than Ike, so he took charge of the command of this infiltration operation. But based on past movie viewing experience, Sara felt that this infiltration would not be easy to succeed. After all, Heimerdinger lacked infiltration experience, and the Yodels had a sense of contrast. They would definitely cause a lot of trouble. In the end, Ike completed it. Finish up and get the crystal. As Jinx becomes the new king of Zaun, her battle with her former friend Ekko will become the highlight of the second quarter of "The War of Two Cities".
The show will be launched globally in November this year. Riot Games has confirmed that the second season will be the final season of the series, and they will develop other content in the future. The "Battle of Two Cities" animated series is adapted from the popular game League of Legends. The second season is still created by Christian Linke and Alex Yee, and the animation part is handled by Fortiche Productions. Previously, they had shown Vi and Caitlyn in Enforcer uniforms in the trailer, who were also on the opposite side of Jinx. The first season is the origin story of the hero, and the second season is all about growth and conflict.
As the long-awaited work of League of Legends fans, the first season of "Battle of Two Cities" achieved great success and won widespread praise.The second season is about to be launched. The audience is looking forward to seeing more exciting plot developments and character portrayals, and Riot Games has successively released materials to warm up. We also get a poster this week featuring Jace, Viktor, Ike, Jinx, Vi, Caitlin, Mel, and Ambesa. Victor here is a character from the first season, who has not yet entered the "glorious evolution", and Mel also stands with her mother Anbesa.
This is also in line with Sara's previous prediction. Mel may have a special artifact and successfully saved himself and Jace, but other people in the council were killed by Jinx, including Caitlin's mother, which plunged Piltover into trouble. There was chaos and the battle between the two cities became more intense. Victor may be partially disabled, which prompts him to seek to modify his body, and subsequently causes disagreements with Jace. But it is also possible that in order to avoid spoilers, the official released the poster in a misleading way. Mel may die or be in a coma for a long time, so Ambesa has reason to send troops to Pi City.
In any case, there are less than four months left until the second season of "Battle of Two Cities" is launched, and we will get more information before the series is launched. After the great success of the first season, Sara sincerely hopes that the second season can end smoothly, tell the follow-up stories of these heroes of Zaun in Piltover, and then open up a new film and television direction for Runeterra. Riot Games is not alone in this project. They have established a Riot Entertainment department and must be developing other film and television works. Please stay tuned to "Battle of Two Cities" in November to witness the gorgeous ending of the final season.
