Miss Fortune, having grown more vicious, burns down a tavern for having Gangplank's insignia upon it and presumably kills everyone within... and just before, this sequence ends, her eyes light up blue— indicating that she accepted the Deal with the Devil Viego offered her, and that he's residing within her right now.

 Ruined King (Video Game) / int_25a6c734
comment
Not in This for Your Revolution: Only Captain Fortune and Illaoi start off with the goal of defeating the Ruined King. Ahri wants to look for her past on the Shadow Isles, Yasuo wants to protect Ahri, Braum wants some of the Water of Life to heal his people, and Pyke is simply being compelled by whatever force animates him. Over time, most of them realize that Viego needs to be stopped and sign on for real; Fortune is nearly sidetracked by her desire to finish off Gangplank once she sees that he and Viego have 'allied.'

Easter Egg: Zig-Zagged, as it is mentioned the game was intended to release in 2020, before Gwen's release in League of Legends; there is a doll that the player can find in the Shadow Isles that was intended to be a cameo/teaser for Gwen, but she was ultimately released about 7 months before the game in April 2021.

Gangplank of all people admits that, after a few Break the Haughty events in a row, he's realizing that his hunger for power and cruelty are more harm than good, and his arrogance leads him to constantly consort with forces he can't control. He even parts with Illaoi on somewhat good terms and hands over the amulet needed to stop Viego.

Character Development
 Ruined King (Video Game) / int_3b113b7
comment
Character Development: Most of the main party, with the exception of Braum (Who prompts much of it through his inherent kindness) and an antagonist, get development. Miss Fortune begins the game terrified at the concept of become She Who Fights Monsters. By the end of the game, she's colder and more ruthless, as shown by her burning down a tavern of Gangplank's supporters. Notably, this is the only negative development of the main cast; Fortune isolates herself completely after Illaoi tells her the truth of Gangplank's survival, and is one of the only ones not celebrating their victory at the end. Illaoi realizes that her goddess works in more mysterious ways than she believed, and that she can't always take her at face value; sometimes, to achieve her desired result, she has to do the right thing, fitting with Nagakabouros' philosophy. Yasuo realizes that he needs to forgive himself, slowly warming up to the others and recognizing that his self-destructive loner personality isn't helping him at all. He becomes much more emotionally open. Ahri rejects her self-hatred and belief that she can never be more than a monstrous killer. Pyke lightens up considerably on the List, learning to bond with the rest of the crew and even coming to an accord with a couple of his targets. While he's still a Serial Killer by the end, he's set his sights on grander goals— namely, the Ruined King himself. Gangplank of all people admits that, after a few Break the Haughty events in a row, he's realizing that his hunger for power and cruelty are more harm than good, and his arrogance leads him to constantly consort with forces he can't control. He even parts with Illaoi on somewhat good terms and hands over the amulet needed to stop Viego.

Secret Test of Character
 Ruined King (Video Game) / int_3f7a958b
comment
Secret Test of Character: The reason Braum is in Bilgewater is because he wants to find the Blessed Waters as a terrible plague is spreading through the Freljord. However, Maokai tells him that the cure can no longer be found. Despite that, Braum still sticks with the group as he's that kind of person, and when they encounter Maokai again, he gives Braum some of his leaves, which contain enough motes of blessed water to make a cure for Braum's people.

Bittersweet Ending
 Ruined King (Video Game) / int_40cc0c7e
comment
Bittersweet Ending: On the one hand, Viego is defeated, saving Bilgewater, and most of the heroes have found some closure. On the "bitter" end, however, Miss Fortune and Illaoi permanently break their trust when Illaoi confesses that she saved Gangplank, Gangplank escapes execution, and Miss Fortune slips into becoming a monster herself— and with the implication that she's possessed by Viego, it seems Bilgewater may not be saved after all. Overall, while a solid victory for the heroes it carries darker implications for the future.

 Ruined King (Video Game) / int_6293c185
comment
Sequel Hook: The ending has a couple of things regarding certain champions: Gangplank manages to escape during the final battle, and Miss Fortune decides she's done playing nice. She'll make it clear that Bilgewater is hers now, and if Gangplank wants it back, he's gonna have to take it. The game ends with her beginning a bloody purge of Bilgewater, personally hunting down and murdering anyone she so much as suspects harbors loyalty towards Gangplank. She is also shown with glowing blue eyes, implying that Viego is still hanging around within her. Yasuo tells the group that he will be heading to Noxus as there is someone there who may need his help. It's very likely that he's referring to Riven, who in recent lore was found by her former comrades in Ionia and taken back to her homeland to be executed. And finally, Pyke puts Viego's name on his list.

Badass Crew: The playable roster of champions: Miss Fortune, a pirate captain and expert sharpshooter. Illaoi, a Badass Preacher who can call on the power of an ancient sea god. Yasuo, a wandering swordsman who can manipulate the wind. Ahri, an immortal half-fox woman with powerful soul magic. Braum, a jovial and absolutely ripped folk hero whose shield is his sword. Pyke, a sea-dwelling revenant with a vicious kill streak and ghostly powers.

The Defroster: Braum wins over just about everyone over the course of the game, particularly those like Yasuo and Maokai who had lost most of their faith in human goodness. Even Captain Fortune is charmed, though she ultimately doesn't defrost.

Destructive Romance: As much as Viego loved his wife, their marriage ultimately ruined the world. And this is before it comes to light that he was an abusive husband who attacked Isolde verbally and possibly even physically.

 Ruined King (Video Game) / int_9053903
comment
Ignored Epiphany: Ahri shows Viego the truth of his memories as a Control Freak, which seems to genuinely shock Viego— who then rejects this realization, shouts that they are lying, and continues.note  This is a Justified Trope if one knows how Shadow Isles wraiths work in the wider setting— their worst character traits are amplified, and as such Viego is literally unable to get over his obsession with Isolde.

"Not So Different" Remark

"Not So Different" Remark: When talking to Miss Fortune, Pyke notes that both of them share the same deep hunger for revenge. She even goes further and says she's got a list of people who've wronged her not unlike him. He even muses on sharing Gangplank's kill with her.

Foreshadowing: Just before Viego is sealed, he offers Miss Fortune a Deal with the Devil— and we don't see her respond, though she says afterward that she turned him down, with the implication being that she issued a Shut Up, Hannibal! to the Ruined King. As the last scene shows in a Wham Shot, the reason we weren't shown her reaction? She took the deal, and brought Viego right into Bilgewater.

comment
She Who Fights Monsters: Miss Fortune is afraid of becoming a brutal pirate lord in the same vein as Gangplank. Throughout the game she teeters on the edge of going full villain but never quite succumbs to her anger and hatred. At the end of the game, she massacres everyone in a tavern just because Gangplank's flag was hanging outside, apparently playing this trope to its ugly conclusion.

Can't Hold His Liquor: When Yasuo softens enough to offer a toast of friendship to Braum, the larger man either isn't used to the kind of stuff Yasuo drinks or takes a bigger swig than is advisable. He ends up on the floor, much to Yasuo's amusement.

Ship Tease: Between Braum and Illaoi. She makes a very unsubtle overture to him on Fortune's ship, but Braum is too seasick to accept. Yasuo and Ahri get quite a bit, though given that Ahri is flirty with everyone it can be hard to tell. But the two certainly open up to each other more than the others and they both look forward to meeting again.

Continuity Snarl: Though the game is clearly intended as a prequel to the Sentinels of Light event and has some very clear foreshadowing (Pyke's development clearly leads into him becoming a Sentinel for one), pretty much everything with Viego being revived and defeated ends up being repeated in the event itself— the game can't be canon, as many other depictions of the story have elements that already happened in the game and the event reverses development from the game, such as Gangplank realizing that he can't rule Bilgewater if he lets it be destroyed, and the main cast having already fought Viego, with Miss Fortune even having implicitly made a bargain with him. Similarly, Isolde's soul being trapped in Bilgewater contradicts Isolde being split into many pieces and scattered across Runeterra.

Exact Words: When she learns Gangplank is behind the resurgence of the Mists, Illaoi says Sarah believed he was dead and that she herself did not expect to find him in the Grey Harbor. This is true, but it hides the fact that Illaoi knew Gangplank was alive, having helped him recover. She was even the one who gave him the Buhru artifacts, though she genuinely didn't expect him to use them against Bilgewater.
