Fortnite is the first game to actually fight them for the top spot on Twitch consistantly so they realised they can't just ride on the post DOTA wave where every other game was incompetent, too complicated, or just a mod and actually advertise. They've been pushing more ads the last few months, but the start of the new season is another good chance to push another way and perform some loss retention at the same time.

tl;dr - Riven was caught working on an Ionian farm and brought to trial for war crimes. Lore retcon now has evidence of part of Riven's blade being in Yasuo's elder's corpse, yet suspiciously that detail wasn't in the report that put the blame on Yasuo. Riven admitted to doing it, but there's definitely room for her being set up for it too, having massive PTSD, and straight up wanting to die because of the things that happened during the war, in addition to the person that spoke about the missing information in the autopsy saying they were silenced from correcting it.
The story didn't really discuss the Ionians traveling down that line of intruige, since it was focused on Riven, nor how exonerated this made Yasuo.
