Veigo's love was both beautiful and obsessive. He was so happy to be with her and he loved her with all of his mind, body, and soul. But he also couldn't accept that she wasn't in his life. He is a man who wanted all in his life, but above all, he wanted his love to be with him forever. He is... the Ruined King.

I really hate the part where Ahri tries to show Viego visions of him being abusive because then it's not a story about how a good man with an obsession can turn into a monster with an obsession but it's "he was always bad bruh obviously she never loved him, he was just dumd" because then there's no way of let it open to a "what if he wasn't that obsessive" or a "what if he never lost her", "what if he never fell in love" because in all cases you'd just say "meh, he was evil either way, dumb villain without motivation."

amazing backstory also i cry when viego wife died

[durshurrikun]

Could the old man at the left be Ledros( who doesn't seem to be carrying his shield though) while the woman at the right is Kalista?

Thresh has to be the most evil person on Runeterra. To think his manipulation was the cause of Viegos suffering and the suffering of the world...

[lemartacus]

does any one by chance know what style of animation this is?

[supermeow]

Did Thresh plotted the assassination of Isolde ? Probably yes, otherwise it sounded too coincidental that he would meet already mad Veigo again.😂 Also when Isolde died in the first time, The doll box was tossed into the sea and a piece of her soul turned into Gwen.
Since that moment, Veigo and Isolde were still married, Does that make Veigo the step-father of Gwen ?😂🤣
imagine this scene:

Veigo (chained and revived):Gwen, you have grown stronger, from now on, you.... you have to keep going, Daddy, will always, ....
be proud., , , , of
Gwen: Veigo .... no, this cant be true.... Veigo what have i done? what i am fighting for ????!11
Veigo became plastic and stop talking ....

The end .

I want to say that forcing Necrit into the game is just lame. I don't have anything against him, but he has literal no skills in terms of voice acting. His character is forced, out of context and feels uselessly empty.

That being said, this version of the story doesn't seem to follow the original canon.

Viego wasn't loved by his people and, he was completely unfit to rule a kingdom.

He was a spoiled prince, growing up selfish and narcissistic.

He was forced to inherit the crown because his elder brother, the real heir to the throne of Camavor, died for unknown reasons.

After meeting Isolde, he abandoned more and more his duties as a king.

The assassin sent to kill him was a result of Camavor's fumed allies due to Viego's uninterest towards governance and enemy nations' picked opportunity to strike.

This video and Necrit's narration is just too vividly black and white for how grey the whole facts actually happened.

Riot Games really need to work on firm points when weaving League of Legends' narration.
