The Legion or Wycc Legion is a group that is primarily active on VK's annual PixelBattle. It consists of many subunits which are called "legions" with a small L. One such subgroup, Legion VOL "Apollo Gloria" is the greater Legion's main presence on Pxls and has been active since Canvas 28.

The greater Legion has at times been more widely active on Pxls, particularly during the Legion Invasions of C43a.

History

In 2017, the Russian social network VK launched a short-term analogue of Reddit /r/place.  The community consisting of viewers of Wycc220 channel took part as Legion. One of VK Pixel Battle's features is a constant war over territory due to large number of participants and small amount of space. After those 3 days were over, some of legionnaries moved to Pxls Canvas 6. Formally, it was the predecessor faction for Legion's current iteration. The Legion, in its entirety, is a highly organized paramilitary structure with hierarchy inspired by the Roman legion. VK Pixel Battle has been consistetly relaunched in both 2018 and 2019, with the last one bringing a small portion of the Legion back to Pxls.

The history of current iteration starts on October 29, 2019, when several legions led by the chief artist of the Legion Molodoy#8805 announced themselves on Pxls.space on Canvas 28.

Canvas 6

Immediately after the end of the first PB, one of the legionnaires called the others to pxls. Despite the lack of a clear command and plan, the legion drew a series of artworks related to Wycc220. Legion left pxls without even waiting for a reset.

Canvas 43a

On this canvas, the Legion with renewed vigor after VK PB2020 began to develop large projects again. The central idea this time was to display the officers of the Legion, as well as those who made the greatest contribution of all time to its development, for which the art received the name "Pillars of the Legion".

This canvas is typical for the Legion with constant updates due to the high employment of the Legate, who alone was engaged in the development of art. In general, the canvas went without conflict, apart from a small disagreement with Antde, which led to the creation of the seventh anti-legion. After the negotiations, the conflit was resolved, and the Seventh Anti-Legion collapsed.
