i don’t think lucian had any chance of becoming like viego, but i get what you’re trying to say. they both have similar stories, but one of them comes from a place of love while the other comes from a place of obsession and instability. i also think it’s interesting that lucian/senna is perfect portrayal of a healthy relationship, viego/isolde is a portrayal of an abusive one. they’re exact opposites of each other in ever possible way and i think it’s cool :)
What make this comment even more interesting is how good Viego resemblance to Hayden Christensen are especially in the splash art but he also have a similarity with Davy Jones as well so he is like the combination between Darth Vader and Davy Jones
Same, there is such a huge potential for interesting lore to be made, still I believe there will be at least something interesting when he'll be on pbe
Viego has 0 connections to the death realm, in fact he hates it seeing that he hates Kindred. Plus, Mordekaiser does not live in the death realm, only a pocket dimension within it. Plus when he was born, the tales of Mordekaiser's reign has long been forgotten in Runeterra

@@gadrielvanorion9872 there's no way that his dad is vlad brother. The darkin where ages before mordekaiser who was approx 80 years before the ruination. Most likely he married into royalty and he's a step uncle. Either that or he's more of a great great great uncle type of scenario
@@davidforde2507 if vlad is his uncle then vlads brother is viegos father as in vlads story its said he got traded BECAUSE he had older siblings who had the right to the throne a throne viego would inherit later so it makes sense anyway,
It's ironic how little respect he has for peasants yet he's willing to destroy the world over his obsessive love for a former peasant girl. I'm actually really curious to see more lore from Isolde's point of view to see how she sees him. Because Senna seems adamant about saving her soul from him and she cried out to Senna while being ripped away from her by Viego so it doesn't seem like she loves him as much as he loves her. It's definitely an interesting story they're building here.
I hope to God that Riot doesn't go with the "abusive boyfriend" trope like so many other unoriginal games and stories. Maybe his wife, a person from fking turbo-ancient times, is just tired of being tied to the mortal realm. Maybe she just wanna enjoy the proper afterlife with Viego, but he's too stubborn to see that better option.
Yea that’s very uninteresting tbh. It’s so easy do the “she doesn’t love him” bull shit cause it makes Viego see creepy and stalker like. I know the story of finding your love is cliche too but it’s honestly one that ages better and makes the characters look better. Just my opinions
I Need You I mean, my bets are that although Isolde loves Viego, she doesn't like what he's become and what he's doing because of her, and wants the ruination to end so they can both move on together.. it's bittersweet, in a sense because Viego is too blinded by his grief to see what his wife truly wanted
Viego being the nephew of Vladimir should actually give him a good chance of being aware of the Darkin. Considering that's where Vladimir achieved his blood magic from.
@@zackrose6261 no, the other is a monster that wants to destroy everything in the hope that it will kill him too. "I march to death, though I wish it was my own"
Maiden is not the body, because we already know that the Ruined Queen is gonna be a champion this year. Meaning that wouldn’t make sense gameplay wise and lore wise
KEKW Mordekaise,Aurelion Sol ,Jax(he was a combatent in the original Rune wars) , Rhaast , Aatrox ,etc...The ruined king isn't nearly close of bring the worst problem Runeterra has to face , between the World runes being in the wrong hands , Mordekaiser being "alive" , the Whatchers and somehow a Celestial fucking shit up and Bard having to clean the mess Veigo really isn't that big on the main lore.
@@pedrocarmo3161 idk about that. He definitely is not at the level of Aurelion Sol or the runes, but from what we can see the Mist is expanding or something, and if left unchecked it will still cause quite some damage. Beside, Viego himself might be very powerful as he probably is the vessel of the Mist, which might be on par with the power of an Ascended? But that might be a big stretch... hopefully the new game and his lore might give us more insight. Can't wait for Necrit's video on it.
@@SpottedPredator well, he kinda did. He loved shurima and it's people and fought the void for many years until he went corrupt. When he first corrupted a host he was concerned for that man's safety until he accidentally killed him. He felt betrayed when he needed help the most. Both aatrox and pantheon know that the gods are eldritch horrors behind a sweet mask. Pantheon decided to be better than them, aatrox decided to destroy everything.
I get the whole "going through hell and back for your lover" thing but come on my dude. It didn't work out for Orpheus when he came to rescue Eurydice, and it certainly won't end well for you.
Yea no Orpheus only had to walk and not turn around to get his wife back and he still didn't manage but this dude has to rip fragments of her soul out of others to MAYBE see her again.
I personally don't even get it. I get it if she genuinely needed rescuing or revenge on the people that killed her. But not destroying the world to bring her back to life. No one should be this wrapped up in someone that their whole world is just 1 person. It's like did you even have a life beforehand. It's just not healthy.
@@fitmotheyap so you'd willingly put yourself in a constant state suffocation, paralysis, and blindness in an empty void for all eternity just to kill a few hundred presidents?
I mean, Lucian can, so can Darius and Val but that would be all of them. And Darius even only partially. I don't think anyone else lost the person they loved. I mean, Camille threw her lover aside as if he was trash but that was her choice so I would count that. Sure others suffered in other great ways but again, that is a different kind of pain.
@@ancientofdays8644 Skarner lost his entire race of people, azir was betrayed and killed by his best friend, and yi got his entire village, and probably wuju killed
@@sekira4516 according to lore he can yes, he is powerful enough to bring someone back to life but he will need a sacrifice or they may not come out right
What I got from this: -vladimir is veigo's uncle -Isolde(veigo's wife)'s soul is scattered, trapped within senna and might be one of yorick's ghouls or even the maiden -kindred might be afraid of the isles -thresh is a bitch
Considering their interaction with BoRK, Kindred are not welcome in the Shadow Isles. The Lamb cannot feel fear, but Wolf certainly would. Which is interesting because I don't think that he fears anything else (aside from their past as The Pale Man)
@@Starryeyeddreamer2001 nope. Vladimir and Swain are currently playing with demonic stuffs and Viego is like a thousand time more powerful so he just doesn't care at all about fiddle x)
Either the kingdom or the old name of the Blessed Isles cuz the kigdoms territorry is probably gone or taken while the Isles are his domain so they can have those lands to "rule".
A lot of people are saying he is a simp, loving and devoting yourself to your wife and having those feelings reciprocated don’t make you a simp. edit: OK it’s been confirmed his late wife no longer has feelings for him, so now he’s a simp.
That voiceline may be a tiny bit outdated. Since you know, the Blade of The Ruined King is just his weapon. And Viego wasn't born on the blessed isles, so his sword was probably not made there.
Half his lines aren't ghost/death puns. Vladimir probably disowned him long ago, he's clearly not on the same page, shames the bloodline ... heh bloodline ... vampire.
So I guess he is the more desperate version of what lucian was, willing to do anything to be reunited with his love even destroy the whole world if needed.
@@Tall-Hobbit Didn't they say one of them was a champion who had to decide who their loyalties were with? heroes or ruined king? That sounds like it could be his wife
His wife or maybe lover will maybe top laner mage/fighter her skills maybe AP or AD. Also, that dude needs some time out for his wife. He's simping too much.
"The gods denied me her salvation and I deny my mortality!" I can imagine him actually saying this. Even though I still think that Thresh was the who sabotaged the ritual, he stole Isolde's soul beforehand and she was actually imbued by the last light of the blessed isles. She saved Senna from becoming full wraith and the Maiden with Yorick is actually Isolde's corrupted body, and when Viego revived her, another soul took over thats why in Yorick's interaction She called the BoRK "The blade of the father"
@@leticiatrindadr8706 You make it seem as if she didn't love him and he held her captive. From what we know that isn't the chase. The newer cinematic if anything only proves that she doesn't approve of what he is doing now, not that she didn't/doesn't love him
@@ChesterZirawin Yes but his disparaging remarks against peasants despite his wife being a former peasant girl herself doesn't paint a good picture of him and how he would've treated her.
@@hiimchrisj I think the line of peasant is just a metaphor on how anyone or anything means nothing to him, since again, He only came back for his queen (and to probably destroy the world doing it lol) But They truely did love eachother, that may be the reason why he is so attached to his queen (in the cinematic he even states “she is my world) Since his life revolved around his lover, his queen. He couldnt let her go, so I highly doubt they never loved eachother. Since the queen doesnt give him any special powers, like you said she is a peasant, so theres really no other reason for him to find her if it isnt to reunite with his lover

@@davidforde2507 if vlad is his uncle then vlads brother is viegos father as in vlads story its said he got traded BECAUSE he had older siblings who had the right to the throne
a throne viego would inherit later
so it makes sense anyway,
@@davidforde2507 read his lore again. I think you missed a couple of important plots
Visually, he's pretty much what Vladimir should've been, even the accent fits that vampire-ish design Vlad has.
Actually Vlad has an amazing VO in LOR
I mean, he is Vlad's nephew
wish he had a deeper voice though.
Compare the dark water vlad splash to viego, looks crazy similar hmm
Lestat
He talks about Isolde so much that even I am missing her ._.
I got the opposite vibe, I feel like I understood why Isolde went to Senna lol
@@quitegauche same vibe as that deli lady in national treasure
It's ironic how little respect he has for peasants yet he's willing to destroy the world over his obsessive love for a former peasant girl. I'm actually really curious to see more lore from Isolde's point of view to see how she sees him. Because Senna seems adamant about saving her soul from him and she cried out to Senna while being ripped away from her by Viego so it doesn't seem like she loves him as much as he loves her.
It's definitely an interesting story they're building here.
Dammit i didn't even notice that isolde didn't want to return to viego
I hope to God that Riot doesn't go with the "abusive boyfriend" trope like so many other unoriginal games and stories. Maybe his wife, a person from fking turbo-ancient times, is just tired of being tied to the mortal realm. Maybe she just wanna enjoy the proper afterlife with Viego, but he's too stubborn to see that better option.
Yea that’s very uninteresting tbh. It’s so easy do the “she doesn’t love him” bull shit cause it makes Viego see creepy and stalker like.
I know the story of finding your love is cliche too but it’s honestly one that ages better and makes the characters look better.
Just my opinions
L to u
I Need You I mean, my bets are that although Isolde loves Viego, she doesn't like what he's become and what he's doing because of her, and wants the ruination to end so they can both move on together.. it's bittersweet, in a sense because Viego is too blinded by his grief to see what his wife truly wanted
Viego to Kindred : My name is Viego Montoya. You killed my wife. Prepare to die.
Wait.
Viego: "You would stop me?"
Aatrox: "You would fight me?! Come, let me show you hell!"
These two have a lot in common.
Except one is just destroying everything to get his wife back and the other is basically a monster that just loves violence.
Yea but one is killing everything to get his wife back the other is killing everything in hope of dying himself.
@@zackrose6261 aatrox canonically wants to suicide, but he is sealed into a indestructible sword, thats why he wants to end everything
Viego being the nephew of Vladimir should actually give him a good chance of being aware of the Darkin. Considering that's where Vladimir achieved his blood magic from.
@@zackrose6261
no, the other is a monster that wants to destroy everything in the hope that it will kill him too.

Viego's still a big character for causing a cataclysm that lasted for years
@@pedrocarmo3161 idk about that. He definitely is not at the level of Aurelion Sol or the runes, but from what we can see the Mist is expanding or something, and if left unchecked it will still cause quite some damage.
Beside, Viego himself might be very powerful as he probably is the vessel of the Mist, which might be on par with the power of an Ascended? But that might be a big stretch... hopefully the new game and his lore might give us more insight. Can't wait for Necrit's video on it.

When he first corrupted a host he was concerned for that man's safety until he accidentally killed him.
He felt betrayed when he needed help the most. Both aatrox and pantheon know that the gods are eldritch horrors behind a sweet mask. Pantheon decided to be better than them, aatrox decided to destroy everything.

I get the whole "going through hell and back for your lover" thing but come on my dude. It didn't work out for Orpheus when he came to rescue Eurydice, and it certainly won't end well for you.
The guy skipped going to hell and straight up brought hell on runeterra
nah Orpheus was just stupid
Yea no Orpheus only had to walk and not turn around to get his wife back and he still didn't manage but this dude has to rip fragments of her soul out of others to MAYBE see her again.
I personally don't even get it. I get it if she genuinely needed rescuing or revenge on the people that killed her. But not destroying the world to bring her back to life. No one should be this wrapped up in someone that their whole world is just 1 person. It's like did you even have a life beforehand. It's just not healthy.

What I got from this:
-vladimir is veigo's uncle
-Isolde(veigo's wife)'s soul is scattered, trapped within senna and might be one of yorick's ghouls or even the maiden
-kindred might be afraid of the isles
-thresh is a bitch
Considering their interaction with BoRK, Kindred are not welcome in the Shadow Isles. The Lamb cannot feel fear, but Wolf certainly would. Which is interesting because I don't think that he fears anything else (aside from their past as The Pale Man)
Very good insight
More like Kindred(Especially Wolf) is ANGRY at the Isles, they represent death, the Isles is fond of cheating them.

Okay but Uncle Vlad is something I never knew I wanted
blade of the ruined king - "Forged in a land unwelcome to us."
And now, the thing which rules that very land stands before the Kindred themselves.
That voiceline may be a tiny bit outdated. Since you know, the Blade of The Ruined King is just his weapon. And Viego wasn't born on the blessed isles, so his sword was probably not made there.

"The gods denied me her salvation and I deny my mortality!" I can imagine him actually saying this.
Even though I still think that Thresh was the who sabotaged the ritual, he stole Isolde's soul beforehand and she was actually imbued by the last light of the blessed isles. She saved Senna from becoming full wraith and the Maiden with Yorick is actually Isolde's corrupted body, and when Viego revived her, another soul took over thats why in Yorick's interaction She called the BoRK "The blade of the father"

@@ChesterZirawin Yes but his disparaging remarks against peasants despite his wife being a former peasant girl herself doesn't paint a good picture of him and how he would've treated her.
@@hiimchrisj I think the line of peasant is just a metaphor on how anyone or anything means nothing to him, since again, He only came back for his queen (and to probably destroy the world doing it lol) But They truely did love eachother, that may be the reason why he is so attached to his queen (in the cinematic he even states “she is my world) Since his life revolved around his lover, his queen. He couldnt let her go, so I highly doubt they never loved eachother. Since the queen doesnt give him any special powers, like you said she is a peasant, so theres really no other reason for him to find her if it isnt to reunite with his lover
