I'm feeling conflicted by the show 😅
I really wanted to love the final season. Despite the mind-blowing animation and art style, I'm disappointed by how rushed the final season was.
If Act 2 felt rushed, Act 3 felt like it was on a speedrun to finish as urgent as possible. (GoT final season flashbacks)
Act 3 alone deserved a season of its own. It felt like the writers were forced to wrap up 8-9 episodes worth of storytelling into just 3 episodes.
But pacing issues aside, I still had a great time watching it. Some scenes made me go "LET'S FUCKING GOOOO", and some scenes made me cry ugly tears.
If I had to rate it, I'd give Season 1 a perfect 10/10, and Season 2 a flawed, yet a great 7.5/10

Oh I thought season 2 is better
I’m yet to see it though

It's definitely better in terms of production value!
But there were some side plots and characters which definitely needed more time to be fleshed out.

Story is a challenge, not production then

Yep! I could re-watch the show just for the visuals alone. I've got a very soft spot for animation haha

I feel quite opposite
Act III has a good pace
if it will be a season of its own then it will be a very boring one

Ah I might have to disagree on that part.
Season 1 pacing was perfect. It allowed proper development of characters and the story progressed really well which made an impact.
But there were quite many subplots in final episode alone which could've easily filled up two more episodes.
For example, I didn't really like how Zaun vs Piltover's decades long conflict got immediately resolved by Jayce's simple speech.
And Sevika got completely sidelined in Act 3. She barely got any dialogues, but was elected into the Union Council without any explanation.
Things like these could've been properly delved into if we had some more episodes
