I'm not really interested in the Séraphine option as she's going to do what she does, and if she has the security of the magic regulator/law reform she'll be able to make a much greater impact if she doesn't fear losing control of her magic and being outlawed. So this would be buffing her capabilities and confidence regardless.

So you think magic is going to allow her to navigate the undercity without a locals help she can trust? Or the moral support she'll get from this. On top of the fact that Zaun as well as peltover was founded by people running away from the Rune wars. So the law may be repealed on Piltover side but would Zaun care?

Edit: Who's going to be her guide anyway? Her song opposes Silco and she doesn't know the firelights to ask. This likely won't happen at all without Jinx or worse case scenario is it happens but something goes wrong off screen.

I don't think Jinx is the sole local they know, given its likely she knows some of the Firelights. They can easily step in to assist her with knowledge, or find someone who can. She's also an empath and will be able to tell if someone is double dealing her.

Meh maybe, but given the shit situation in canon and overall culture, I can't see them letting Piltover monopolize mages. Even if Piltover would probably prefer if Zaun did let them do so.

Ekko as a friend of Jinx? Or Zari? I could ship either one.

I'm going by what we have in the text and I don't think we were ever told Saraphine knowing any of the firelights. Plus Jinx has reputation none of the firelights have which will make a difference on top of the personal connections with Saraphine.

Also Silco would feel more comfortable striking at firelights over a Kirraman. He even said it last time, if he lays hands on Jinx it's gonna be a problem.

As for the monopoly on mages, I don't think even peltover will start recruiting them because they're legal. The issue is the Rune wars are a generational trauma. Basically just because it's not systematic anymore doesn't mean the individual is going to change their minds.

Well we haven't seen Zari much on screen so I couldn't say in her case.

These two are close enough... I question how successful magic law reform will be,
I think people are underestimating the usefulness of "A Visit To High Silvermere", true it is partly bonding with Lux, on the other hand we are connecting with a foreign power which is a major food producer. I feel it works well with Kiramman Way.

I really wish it was choose seven

Very much so, it is less that people are underestimating the High Silvermere thingy and more that we have so many essential projects that we simply cannot afford it...

- Magic Flow Regulator
- Hextech Hydroponics
- Undermine Kiramman Way

Split:
- Grenades vs Pow-Pow

Contention pick 2 of Five:

We say that, but would anyone be shocked if it turned out Freddie Mercury was some kind of musical spellcaster?

It wouldn't be a fun vote if I gave people enough options to pick everything they want.

For a handy recap, here's where things stand as far as the three leading plans:

Plan Meaningful Changes to Life in Jinx's Home : Grenades - 17 Votes
- Grenades: Lots and Lots of Grenades
- Magic Flow Regulator
- Hextech Hydroponics
- Shimmer Research
- Undermine Silco's Monopoly: The Kiramman Way
- Mage Law Reform

Plan Meaningful Changes to Life in Jinx's Home : Pow-Pow - 14 votes
- Pow-Pow
- Magic Flow Regulator
- Hextech Hydroponics
- Shimmer Research
- Undermine Silco's Monopoly: The Kiramman Way
- Mage Law Reform

Plan: Friendship is Political Business
- Pow-Pow
- Magic Flow Regulator
- Hextech Hydroponics
- A Visit To High Silvermere
- Seraphine's Zaun Concerts
- Undermine Silco's Monopoly: The Kiramman Way

What they all agree on:

Magic Flow Regulator
Hextech Hydroponics
Undermine Silco's Monopoly: The Kiramman Way

Points of Discussion

Grenades vs Pow-Pow
Shimmer Research and Mage Law vs Concert and Silvermere

Also, I'm a bit surprised Kiramman Way is such a strong consensus pick, considering I was expecting people to jump Jinx doing some Piracy and dragging Caitlyn into it.

Plus getting a little private time with her could be useful for all kinds of stuff, and I wasn't just thinking of that. I'd never really seen a mage in action, after all. Seraphine couldn't really cut loose in the middle of the city, but if Lux and I were out in the middle of the countryside far away from anyone else...

This sounds like visiting Lux will improve the magic flow regulator.

It's probably due to violence proving Silco right. Fighting people for the food would hurt Zaunites and it isn't a long term solution.

When it comes down to it this is probably due to shippers vs Vi/Zaun concerns.

Edit: It's too bad we didn't go whole hog on destroying Silcos base and minimizing him before the next arc.

We may fix things with food but that just puts him back to where he was before the deal. People still have the smog to remind them of the separation and no counter message to Silco's propaganda.

Hey, you're the one who wanted thematically coherent plans instead of things we think would be cool individually, and the theme du jour is responsibility.
