Now imagine what we are going to read when we'll reach the story in the future, maybe when a new Darkin will be introduced (how Aatrox will turn the wheel of fate, change the battle into a pure bloody carnival). "Violence is elegance". My body is ready.

And more than that, I really like the way TF's character is being uncovered. He is actually being developed! Now he's not just a selfish gambler, but a guy with his own fears and weaknesses (he's definitely NOT a Marty Stu. And it's great!), he shows proper reactions and we are able to speculate about different situations between him and Graves. Great job, Riot!

We're all very happy that you're enjoying the event so far. Moving TF into a different space as a character, and having progression for all of the Champions involved as far as their story arcs are concerned were very important to us. It means a lot to the team when we see these responses. Thank you very much.

This is so much better than Shurima.

What confuses me most is how the gunfight in the first act was essentially a PG rated bloodless superhero fight where guns are firing and no one gets hurt, then act two hits and it's just super concentrated, brutally gory ultraviolence.

Did they just want Gangplank's scrimshaw to be extra shocking, so all the actual violence happened after that scene?

I like the part in which bloody guts fall on the ground.

Too bad Graves still can't have a cigar.

Agreed. Malcom is also being developed, albeit a bit slowly. Now he's actually heard TF's reason for dipping out at the last second, and why it wasn't betrayal. Now lets see what GP and MF are going to do.

Also MF seems to be attempting a rather gutsy move, maybe setting ablaze Gangplank's ship and raiding his warehouse? It seems very clear that MF played TF and Graves for fools and made them cause all of this havoc to give her an opening.

So did you get rid of T.F.'s lust for magic in his new lore? Because that's a part of his character I've really liked. He was willing to trade in his best friend for something he deeply desired.

I'm also enjoying the story so far. Twisted Fate's a pretty fun character.

Heck...I just bought a pack of steel throwing cards at Wall Drug. Something I'm sure TF would appreciate.

Wait, I read it and thought it was amazing, but how was what TF did not a betrayal.....its still seems like he set the job up so graves could get caught and TF can get the powers.
