Although initially reluctant to take shimmer out of fear that it would kill him, Deckard eventually relented, with the drug giving him superhuman strength at the cost of some of his cognitive abilities. He later took the drug a second time in order to capture Vander on Silco's behalf and then took it a third time during another clash with Vander's children, which enabled him to defeat Vi and help Silco take down Vander. He then moved to finish the job by killing Vi, but was intercepted and strangled to death by Vander, who had taken Shimmer himself as a last resort.

After Silco took charge of the undercity, Huck was one of the many people who became hopelessly addicted to shimmer, to where abusing the drug forced him to live in squalor with a community of other addicts and severely damaged his body. Nearly a decade after Vander's downfall, Huck encountered Vi and Caitlyn while they were on the run from Silco and tried to repay his debt to Vander by obtaining a healing potion for Vi from a local apothecary. Unfortunately, his drug addiction ultimately got the better of him and led him to sell Vi out to Silco in an exchange for a vial of shimmer. Shortly after Silco's death, Huck encountered Viktor and tried to rob him after noticing his expensive-looking staff.

Background
Sky Young was a woman from Zaun and was a childhood acquaintance of Viktor. Eventually she grew up to be an assistant in Jayce Talis and Viktor's laboratory in Piltover. She was an aspiring scientist who had a crush on Viktor and also admired him as a scientist. She would attempt to get closer to him by offering to walk home together but Viktor was oblivious to her approaches and feelings, focusing more on his work. Sky had a notebook that detailed her own independent research that she wanted to show to Viktor and gain his insight. However, she walked in on Viktor attempting to use the hexcore to transform his body. It appeared that Viktor lost control of the hexcore and was about to be consumed by it, so Sky tried to pull him away in order to save his life. The hexcore disintegrated Sky into a pile of ash, and when Viktor regained consciousness, he was left distraught by her death. After Viktor was healed by the hexcore, he believed he was communing with Sky within the hexcore. However, it was the hexcore who assumed her form to guide him towards his final evolution.
