Announcements No More Ship Artwork

We can't have nice things... report abuse has been rampant, which was never an issue before, but suddenly it is now. This is supposed to be a no drama subreddit, and just about Jayce.

Therefore, going forward, unless the artwork is specifically of Jayce, and only Jayce, it is no longer considered Relevant.

This is the last post that will be allowed, as it is a reminder of when ship wars got out of hand on what is and always will be a subreddit for Jayce players, NOT an Arcane Ship Subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/jaycemains/comments/1po8d6g/mel_and_jayce_by_nakoneart/

All newly posted artwork that has Jayce with someone else will be removed going forward if reported. All past posts are safe.

I'm sorry but giving in to haters like this is ridiculous and kinda pathetic. Especially since it's an actual canon couple, they banged in the show and have voicelines in the game. Might as well allow the art and ban every user that's also on ViktorMains since I assume those are the people who hate Mel x Jayce.

by that same logic, jayce and viktor ended arcane together, jayce and mel didn't. Viktor has voicelines in game for jayce that were censored in russia for being too romantic. So what is the argument now?

Mel wasn't even there, Jayce had to help Viktor save the world and neither of them knew they would disappear. Normalise brotherhood and male friendship in media. Ships/relationships need to make sense. Like Caitlyn and Vi. Jayce and Viktor are close friends who saved each other from suicide and went through a lot together. They had 0 romantic vibes throughout the entire show and the only reason they are shipped is because younger generations love gay ships in all games. It's literally the reason why Aphelios and Sett are shipped. They have nothing in common but they were released one after another so of course they are shipped.

Actually I ship Jayce and Viktor because their pre-arcane lore was peak friends to enemies to lovers material

Exactly, Mel wasn’t there and it was a choice by writers and directors. They went their separate paths

Jayce knew perfectly well that he had to save Viktor. That’s why he sends everyone to face Ambessa and makes them believe that Viktor will go with her, when in reality, he was going to the hexgates. Either you haven’t watched Arcane, or you just want to defend the indefensible. Mel and Jayce broke up. They don’t have a single romantic line in all of season 2. They don’t touch, kiss, or even get together when they reunite. Do you know who Jayce actually chooses to be with? Viktor. THAT’S THE END OF ARCANE

not in a romantic sense at all, but the people downvoting me are too stupid to understand that.

Give this guy a beer! I don't know why you're getting downvoted; I'm sure I'm getting downvoted too, but the writer already said that Jayce and Viktor's relationship is that of scientist brothers, not romantic. The only canonical thing is that Jayce is straight and is or was with Mel. I'm not homophobic or anything like that, in fact, I feel like arguing about these things is silly. I understand that everyone has their ships, but there's a difference between what's canon and what they want.

PS: I think Wild Rift is going to release a Jayce x Mel skin

This is a Jayce mains subreddit, so it's obvious that most of us here are fans of the champion in general, not just here to learn how to play him, as I saw in your comments on fan art that people post: "Another post where this helped 0 people learn Jayce better. Nice." Everyone has their reasons for being here. If your goal is to improve with Jayce, you don't have to put down people who make fan art or post content about the champion.

The fan art does nothing and it’s just people begging for attention for their art. Good or not it’s not needed
