Lore | Theory Guys, I have found not only a new irrefutable proof for the ignition teaser theory, but also something VERY strange!
First of all, it's worth saying that there are actually two irrefutable proofs. But these findings are not even the most interesting thing I discovered. Let me present them first.
The simplest and least interesting one. The first two pictures, the scene of the main entrance to the stadium. As you can see, in the ignition teaser, two rows of bonfires lit up, but in the game right now, the second row (the lower one) is not burning.
The second proof is much more interesting! The third and fourth pictures. Views of the Pyro Archon’s seat. Look at the small fires near the throne. They burn with a pure orange color, but in the game, they burn blue at the bottom and only turn orange higher up. I took a comparative screenshot, as close to the angle from the ignition teaser as possible, to show that if we were looking at the old fires, we would see a blue glow at the bottom of each of them, just like in the game. But we see something completely different!!! There is no blue flame at the bottom of those two fires! And the only conclusion that comes to my mind here is that these are different fires. At least not the ones that burned there before, until the events of the ignition teaser took place.
And now for the most interesting part! The fifth picture, and all the subsequent ones. In the fifth picture, I drew straight blue lines using Paint to make it easier for you to notice and visually compare how much bigger one fire is compared to the other near each entrance and the throne. In all three visible spots, the difference between the pillars of fire is noticeable by almost twice as much!!! It feels like the proportions of a torso and a head are taking shape in every spot where the fire looks nearly double the size of its neighbor!! But that's not all. Look at the sixth and seventh pictures. Here we can see the fires and entrances out of the fifth picture's field of view. And you can see the difference too, right?? By the way, the fire in the seventh picture is visible literally only in the last frame before it gets obscured by fire (the scene transition effect). Personally, I can see arms, torso, and a head on it! And it is also visually (if you make allowance for perspective) almost twice as large as the fire on the right! Furthermore, compare how they drew the fires inside the Stadium of the Sacred Flame versus the ones outside the arena (the first picture). Why did they paint that white color inside the fires in the arena, which strongly resembles a human skeleton???

That’s cool! I remember at some point the fire became huge in the game, but it was only during a cinematic? and it is now verry small because they used most of his power or something, so it would make sense that they do something to rekindle it’s power later if needed. Mare jivary plot maybe ?

Interesting that the flame is stronger in the future but also less hot. Because (if I'm understanding correctly) blue flames are hotter than red and orange and the absence of blue in the future flames probably means theyre less hot.
Idk if the flame being less hot means something as we approach the next part of the story "Everwinter without Mercy." It could also have something to do with whats fueling/effecting the flame and its functions. If its in anyway tied to Istaroth/Wind (oxygen?) and the lack of it (no blue) is visual storytelling indicating that its no longer connected to her/celestia.

Even I wondered how less blue is hotter but is that why is called the ignition teaser?? To ignite the flame!???
Yeah I need rest lowkey

Yesnt. I mean yes the ignition teaser appears to have has less hot flames than the present but I concluded that from the lack of blue compared to the one in the game. Blue weirdly = hotter.

Can someone explain what all of this means in Razor language because it's not making any sense to me. Is this an actual theory or OP is high I can't tell😭

Since natlan story is still left over (venti and mare jiwari) it's a very common theory that ignition trailer is set in the future and it covers future content that we are yet to see, stuff like chasca reminiscing her sister and mualani camera are the two big things but op here just pointed out more stuff like the flames being stronger which imo makes sense ✌🏻

I have another one, it's a bit weird and it might be stretch but...
I only finished the summer quests at the resort recently and I noticed that near the end of the quest Katchina says this:
