  • I really enjoyed the show as a whole, and it is one of the most visually stinking shows around. Buttttt…season 2 had a lot of issues. Short list:

    spoiler

    I think they had a real issue with the “We should work together to beat this bigger enemy” when they did not resolve the existing class disparity issue. To me, Echo had the best storyline, but the others were lacking/unexamined. Vi working for Piltover could have been a cool season unto itself, but it was just “Watch us gas Zaun to find Jinx.” Ending with a single person from Zaun on the council and calling it good is the most naive “Let’s all just get along” shit I have seen in a long time. Piltover was never swayed away from fascism, so is Zaun just part of it now?

    Overall it felt like some cool ideas they decided not to explore or did not have time to, and it just came out as “We can work inside the system to fix it” which literally never works.
