As Riot Games continue to go from strength to strength following the triumphant release of their League of Legends-inspired Netflix show, Arcane, cosplayers from across the globe have recreated the show\u2019s now iconic champions in droves. We\u2019ve seen stunning renditions of everyone from main antagonist, Jinx, to an insane recreation of fan favorite inventor turned Shimmer-obsessed scientist, Viktor. Up next on cosplay hitlist is Powder\u2019s tortured sister, Vi, who has been brought to life by LA based cosplayer theelfinartist (Brie) in an outfit that will have your jaw on the floor (probably because Vi put it there). League of Legends Arcane Vi cosplay is spectacular They note that they\u2019re not a huge League of Legends player \u2014 but they\u2019ve learned a lot about the game\u2019s characters and lore. \u201cI\u2019m not a hardcore LoL gamer, but many of my friends are, so I\u2019ve gotten to experience it through them and have always been inspired by the gorgeous characters\u2019 designs and exciting lore!\u201d they said. \u201cI\u2019ve cosplayed from LoL a few times before, and when Arcane came out I was absolutely obsessed with both the story, characters, and gorgeous art. I had to bring these kick-a*s characters to life!\u201d Starting their Arcane cosplay journey as Jinx, Brie was quick to bring Vi to life, too. \u201cVi is another favorite character of mine and her character speaks volumes to me,\u201d they told Dexerto. \u201cI relate to both of the sisters so much, but I\u2019m also a sucker for strong-willed characters with muscles and tattoos so I knew I had to do my own spin on Vi with some casual and fashion cosplays of her.\u201d Brie\u2019s cosplay isn\u2019t the conventional red leather jacket, though, as they wanted to put their own spin on Zaun\u2019s feisty fighter. \u201cUsually I make my cosplays from scratch (like I\u2019m doing with Jinx) but with Vi, because I was taking a fashion spin on the concept, I only made the wig and then shopped and styled her outfit from my closet, tweaking things as needed.\u201d It\u2019s the unconventional nature of this cosplay that makes it so unique, however, as we can imagine this fashionista version of Vi stalking plague-ridden streets of Zaun in search of their beloved Powder. Steampunk-esque tattoos snake down their arms, with a white sports bra hugging tightly to their muscled form. Wispy magenta hair ripples down to their shoulders, and that iconic facial tattoo peeks out from beneath hooded eyes. View this post on Instagram Speaking of that stunning wig, it was this that caused Brie the most trouble. \u201cThe wig was actually completely reconstructed from a different LoL cosplay wig that I had used in the past!\u201d they state, recalling \u201cthe wig was very resistant to the dying process, which made it a bit more intense of a styling job than I originally intended.\u201d View this post on Instagram For those (like us) who are obsessed with Brie\u2019s fashion twists on classic characters, fear not! There are more League cosplays in the works. \u201cI\u2019ve already cosplayed Evelynn, Akali, and I\u2019m working on finishing my Jinx cosplay, but I have plans for more Arcane characters and other Akali designs!\u201d Will we see Brie transform into Piltover\u2019s finest sheriff, Caitlyn? Or is Viktor more up their alley? Time will tell, but until then we can\u2019t get enough of their Vi.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>League cosplayer delivers justice as Arcane\u2019s fearsome Vi Riot Games, theelfinartistArcane, Riot Games\u2019 League of Legends-inspired Netflix show, thrust fans into the turbulent world of age old champions Jinx and Vi, but one cosplayer has brought the pink-haired powerhouse to life with this stunning cosplay.
