At Rank 15 is the Jayce/Viktor pairing, commonly referred to as “JayVik.” Over the year, it has gained over 5000 new pieces published, a considerable majority of its 7700 total works. This is the first time the pairing has reached the top 100 on this list, even counting Arcane’s debut run in 2021.
The Caitlyn/Vi ship (CaitVi, or Violyn) is not too far behind, finding itself at rank 17 on the list. While CaitVi earned slightly less new works this year, with just under 5,000, compared to the other Arcane pairing, it has a considerable lead over JayVik in the total works category. Caitlyn/Vi has over 11,000 works under them, compared to JayVik’s 7,700.
