Lolesports removed VODS and now every game is spoiled even with spoilers hidden checked :(

Original Post — Direct link

Title says it all. The hide spoilers check doesn't work on the Schedule page, only VODS actually hid the games. This change is super negative for me, as half the point of watching the games is that I don't know who is gonna win.

Why were VODS removed? Makes no sense to give us an inferior product for no reason.

I'd post an SS but I don't want to spoil anything for people who have other places to watch the games, but for me I only know of Lolesports and they ruined the website. Le sigh.

Hey friends, super sad this happened during playoffs which is such an exciting time of year. There was a bug regression with the spoiler protection feature. We are working on a fix and should have it deployed today.

Hey, still cant even find the VODS. Tried to watch last week's games elsewhere and they got spoiled for me.

The new site is atrocious for this the use cases of "Want to know when games are" and "Watching game VODs later", which are the only two reasons I ever visit the website. What was the rationale behind the changes made?

Hey gnomehouse, can you tell me more about not being able to see VODs at all? There are some leagues that we don't support fully (like NACL or LPL sometimes). But for most major leagues (LCK, LEC, LCS, etc.) VODs should be visible within a few hours of the match concluding.

I would also love to hear what is frustrating about finding when games are.

Are VODs no longer being offered on the official site, or did they vanish due to this bug? I still don't see VODs

Hey Useful_Department852, which VODs are you looking for? They are still offered on the site, but we have consolidated all of the information that was on the old /vods page and /schedule page into just the homepage. You can now access VODs straight from home by pushing the "play" button next to a completed match.

Is that not working for you?

3 Ranked Splits is Too Much

Every Dignitas Baron Throw Ever (2013 - 2024)

I was testing new Lethal Tempo on PBE and noticed that the "Riot Dev Post" and weirdly even Phreak in his rundown were wrong. LT is NOT an On-Hit rune, it's an On-attack Rune!
