With so many different personalities, there's a little bit of something for everyone in this show that explores these video game champions and their lives in a more visual way. All this being said, there are a few fan-favorite characters that stand above the rest according to Redditors.
Jayce
According toAppropriate-Arm-2077,Jayce is one of the most well-written characters of the series. This Redditor states that "If we’re talking about writing and complexity in my opinion it’s either Jayce, Silco, or Jinx." As one of the many League of Legends champions in Arcane, Jayce is often overlooked and this carries onto his persona in the hit TV show.
Jayce is one of the most expressive charactersas he showcases how he feels and the ways that the rebels and enforcers affect him. He is a soft person, but a scientist with a determined goal at his very core. Though his story is tragic, he is ultimately striving for the truths of the gems and the universe of Runeterra.
Mel
Mel Medara is a cunning and mysterious woman whoMartaDS20believes is one of the best characters in the show as they say "I might be the only one, but Mel is my favorite." Mel knows what she wants and there are even fan theories that she could potentially be LeBlanc, the champion from League of Legends.
This Redditor feels alone in their belief that Mel is one of the best in the show. However, she has certainly left her mark on audiences with her dazzling appearance and helped prove that video game adaptations don't have to be made just for fans.
Singed
UserIWillNameMyFirstChildZoewas surprised on an Arcane chain about the show's best characters saying, "How is Singed not even an option? The amount of character development he got was insane."

Singed is a great example in the show of how effective and frightening the serum that Silco developed in part 1 is. Though he doesn't really play much of a part in the latter half of the season, Singed is really cool to watch as he transitions from a normal-looking person to something more deformed.
Sevika
RedditorDiesofLigmasays that Sevika is the "true pinnacle of character development" as she, a villainess, fights Vi and stuns audiences with her powerful Shimmer using a mechanical arm.
Not only is she an interesting character, but her arm and its capabilities hint at the development of Vi's iconic gauntlets that are powered in the same exact way. Though she has limited screen time, the woman has quite an impact with her sinister smile and clever demeanor.
Ekko
RedditorEuphoric_Tax8703likes Ekko, whose new Firelight Skin was just added to the game, most out of all the characters in Arcane. The Reddit user writes "Ekko my boy," which just shows how likable this character is and how familiar he feels to audiences. As a cute kid or the leader of a pacifist resistance effort, Ekko is someone who wants the best for his friends, family, and other people that grew up in the same position.
When Ekko uses his watch to distract Jinx in the show, it calls back to his abilities in the game and makes him more complex of a character because audiences don't know exactly how he's changed since he was a kid under Vander's wing. It will be exciting to see how next season might explain more of his character.
Caitlyn
UserNevaehW8says that "Caitlyn is like my exact type. I love her so much and her growth."This character started the show as a wealthy citizen of Piltover with little experience of what the rest of the world is like. By the end, she and Vi are working together to stop the Enforcers from exploiting the power of the Hex-tech gems.

Caitlyn is fun to watch, especially when paired with Vi, and she also changes because of her newfound understanding of the world due to her time in the rift. Overall, she has one of the more interesting emotional and mental journeys in Arcane.
Viktor
UserSeraphBlade210likes Viktor, but this Redditor really just wants to see Viktor get "his glorious evolution on screen" because they would love to see "him descend into Machine." Viktor is very obviously ill while also being one of the most talented characters inArcane, making his story a tragic one in some ways.
Heis a powerful mage in League of Legends and it's speculated that Viktor could be Arcane's season 2 villain despite the ending of season 1. That being said, he is an easy character to empathize with and people love him for just how fragile and brilliant he is.
Silco
According toggSennT, "Silcowas honestly the best character after Viktor." Silco is the villain of the show, but he is also really smart and exciting to watch because of his mystery and fatherly attitude towards Jinx.
As an evil character, the show does a great job of humanizing the man and making him both frightening and reasonable in the same breath. This Redditor is certainly not alone in their opinion of the character as he is one of the most referenced Arcane characters on Reddit.
Vi
RedditorTokitsukazeslists their favorite characters with Vi in first, Ekko in second, and Caitlyn and Heimer tied. Vi, Jinx's sister, is a rough and tough girl who knows how to take care of herself and has always had to defend herself.
Vi is one of the best characters in Arcanefor a lot of Redditors because she knows what she wants, can kick butt, and only takes what she needs. Vi is also extremely understanding of others and is one of the most moral characters in the series by far.
Jinx
A poll made byImveryunoriginal17proves that Jinx is one of the most beloved characters of the series as she is number one. Jinx is a complicated character, no doubt, but her complexity is what makes her so interesting to every viewer. Compared to every other character in the poll, Jinx was the only one to receive over 200 votes for being the best character.
Overall, Jinx has shown to be one of the most interesting and relatable characters of the series even though she is driven mad and a little unhinged. People still love Jinx because she's the main character and she is ultimately the victim of all the trauma that has forced her to become the woman she is.
