In League of Legends, players assume the role of an unseen "summoner" that controls a "champion" with unique abilities and battle against a team of other players or computer-controlled champions. The goal is usually to destroy the opposing team's "nexus", a structure which lies at the heart of a base protected by defensive structures. Each League of Legends match is discrete, with all champions starting off fairly weak but increasing in strength by accumulating items and experience over the course of the game.
League of Legends was generally well received at release, and has grown in popularity. By July 2012, League of Legends was the most played PC game in North America and Europe in terms of the number of hours played. As of January 2014, over 67 million people played League of Legends per month, 27 million per day, and over 7.5 million concurrently during peak hours.
League of Legends has an active and widespread competitive scene. In North America and Europe, Riot Games organizes the League Championship Series, located in Los Angeles and Berlin respectively, which consists of 10[5] professional teams in each continent. Similar regional competitions exist in China, South Korea, Taiwan, South America, and Southeast Asia. These regional competitions culminate with the annual World Championship, which in 2013, had a grand prize of $1 million and attracted 32 million viewers online. The 2014 and 2015 tournaments each gave out one of the largest prize pools in eSports history, at 2.3 million dollars. Winners also receive trophies, such as the Summoner's Cup, which was made by silversmiths Thomas Lyte.

But I might shoot you, in your face!

@zen-kun
remember spamming this back in the day thinking it's just some cool music video showing how crazy jinx is for no reason at all, but watching arcane and knowing her backstory now hits different
@HNblaz
Wow it's weird to see you here
@leodrk3955

@Neochill1992
After watching the end of arcane, this music video not only hit different, but also makes so much more sense
@ThuongNguyen-lq6oo

@TheFabulousRBK
Let's be real here; we see she's off within the first minute of Arcane.

2013: "Meet Jinx! The chaotic comedy in its finest."
2022: "She is the embodiment of consequences created by corrupted society."
@cookiebombcasualemail5284
2013: I'm a freaking force of nature!
2022: I am a monument to all of your sins
@TinkerGrape
No she is pure evil by nature
@ShadzeriosFIN
@@TinkerGrape It depends which version of Jinx you are referring to. League of Legends Jinx is still a ball of chaotic comedy, but the Arcane Jinx was someone who witnessed terror and abuse during her childhood, which caused her to become what LoL Jinx is because she lead herself to believe that she is not worthy of being rescued. Thus fully favoring and adoring the no longer stable version that she is. This song resembles both versions of Jinx in a sense. The childish mind that Jinx has, the chaos and destruction that she has been surrounded for all her life and becoming that very destruction that threatens the many lives in the present time. "Powder" was Jinx's previous name before she gave it away. Whenever Jinx refers to "Pow Pow" she means her younger-self who would have never agreed or wanted such destruction to happen.
