This whole year has been about The Ruined King, also known as Viego and his coming attack on the world of League of Legends. Over the past few days, the League of Legends team has certainly ramped up their teasers. Now, the announcement for “Rise of the Sentinels” has come along with a release date of July 8, or Patch 11.14. Here is what is known so far.

For those who may not have been paying attention, this has been coming for a while. As they stated at the beginning of the year, most of this year would revolve around Viego including the three champions released after him. The first was Gwen who was the doll of Viego’s love, Isolde. Then the next two would be the artillery mage Yordle and a new Sentinel of Light who would be a midlane marksmen. According to some leaks, it is possible that this new champion will be named Akshan.
The other Sentinels of Light who are trying to stop Viego are Lucian and Senna. Also, the lore states that Lucian’s dad trained Senna and then she trained Lucian. Now that Lucian saved Senna they are thought to be the last two Sentinels of Light left alive. The rumors are that Akshan is a new one and it would make sense that he is the one rising to help them fight the darkness.
As Viego brings the Ruination across every nation, it will be interesting to see where the story goes next. Will they be able to stop Viego or will more help be needed? Could they recruit current champions to be the next Sentinels of Light? Either way this event is about to be a big one for League of Legends, possibly their biggest one to date.
