Genuine question - what is it you’re looking for as fun? I can make some guesses but figure it’s better to ask

interesting changes, but would like more info

The major difference is that you can't select whatever prismatic you want. They are powerful, but the round you get a prismatic, it is similar to getting a augment, in that you get to pick 1orf 3 randomly shown to you (you can reroll like augments though) Same thing happens if you buy a prismatic anvil. Thier is no way to directly purchase a prismatic item.

Do you know if Riot plans to do multiple balance changes during this run of arena? Because I feel like that would definitely keep engagement up, if some of the top tiers/annoyances got nerfed.

Yes, we are planning to do balance patches. We are also looking into to doing a small content drop at some point (with probably a few new augments/prismatic items)

Hey Meddler do you guys have any concerns about the extended Arena run competing for engagement with the PvE mode, given it'll be out for an entire split, or are you guys taking that into account when evaluating both modes

We’ll keep an eye on it certainly, if Arena is to become permanent though it’ll need to show engagement either maintains through event modes or that its player base comes back after an event mode ends

Only one new map, interesting. Does this mean there will be duplicates of some maps? As I understand there would be up to 8 2v2s happening at once now and I think there are only 5 (?) arenas. Or are there more new arenas that they just didn't reveal?

Overall super cool changes, can't wait to try out this new arena, especially the new item system!

Each arena holds 4 people (2 teams of 2), so one of the five will be unused each time

It does. Shadowflame works like this:

  1. Who is dealing the damage? It only checks damage dealt by the holder (this includes their pets and other things like items that are sourced back to the originating champion).

  2. What type of damage is being dealt? It only proceeds if it's magic or true damage.

  3. What percent health is the enemy at? If they are below the threshold, it crits, dealing the increased damage.

It has some other hidden rules, like not applying to summoner spells, but Liandry's damage would fall within these, since it deals magic damage and is being dealt by the Shadowflame holder.

All of that having been said, I would say Liandry's Shadowflame Yorick is a...bold choice.

I feel like grubs mostly help ranged champs (they can basically poke the tower even when enemies defend) and champs that have problems taking down towers. Most side laners don't need them

As a Kennen player I love having grubs. Before I did nothing to turrets.

Scope

Reports for exploits leveraging the anti-cheat kernel driver vgk.sys.

What does that have to do with your original claim that the "driver" is not calling home, and OP saying it is calling home even when the game is not running? That's obviously "a feature" that you installed, not an exploit

If vgk.sys is communicating externally when vgc.exe isn’t on, that’s not intended functionality. It would be eligible for a bug bounty.

Worlds 2016 when all of the pros were playing solo queue in NA are the best quality games I can ever remember playing in. Got to play with Faker 4 times, all on my team, we won all of them except when Mancloud didn't want to give him mid :P. Ruler + CoreJJ (actually I think it was Pray and Gorilla) duo was also the most gapped I'd felt in a bot 2v2 up to that point.

So far not 1 rioter responded to similar claims, or any security concerns.

It's more important to reply to comments about "lulz cheater outsource mails to fiverr lul".

It has been responded to on other social medias ( https://x.com/deteccphilippe/status/1778502812403700045?s=46&t=iCQaeykeGHTksKoO4TeHHw ), but if you can prove this is happening, we do have a bug bounty program operated by HackerOne offering significant monetary sums to anyone who finds a vulnerability

I think K3o can probably say it better than me. https://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/1c1kgrk/dev_vanguard_x_lol/kz3yi9u/?share_id=HibAEyoDgZgQOqPJUCFjv Hope this answers your question.

Vanguard for LoL doesn’t have the current restriction system that VALORANT has for certain players.

If you’re on Windows 10 and you’re getting this message on VALORANT and you can’t support TPM 2.0, please write into Player Support. If you have already, you can message me your ticket number.

Y'all just sleeping on my Shaco x Fiora fanfic or?

So is someone going to photoshop Lee sin with a 2nd health bar and dark souls HUD or do I need to do it?

Can we get a breakdown of cheaters PER SERVER? Because Asia is a majority of players. China alone has 29 servers. So if the only statistic you give is is based on totals numbers then it seems flawed and dubious as if you were using Asia's higher cheating statistics to push Vanguard on the remaining players. I would love a graph with each server laid out and each amount of cheaters per rank on each server.

None of the numbers or graphs contain data from outside of riot regions. So no they wouldn't impact the numbers we shared here.

To clarify point 1. I meant a non-Riot game. Lets for example here, say I'm using a trainer on Far-Cry 2; an old, single player game.

After a brief lookup of some I found online, seems like it would be ok. If it’s one that’s just a bundled CheatEngine or other similar products, you may encounter an issue. We’d look to close League during that interaction though, not to ban the individual account.

Perfect thank you ! Visual Studio should be fine too I guess ?

Yep, should be good. If you ever want to try anything yourself though to make sure, we are running in the PBE, if you have an account there.

3 things quickly:

  1. Back to point 6: If, hypothetically, I use a trainer tool on a single player game. Would this be something seen by vanguard and risk a ban? Or will vanguard just whinge crash my LoL/Val game until I close it? Does Vanguard even see this if I don't have Valorant/LoL open?

  2. Does Vanguard run while the LoL client is open or only when a LoL game actually starts?

  3. Does Vanguard run while the Riot Client is running or only during the launch of above Riot games?

  1. If you're using a prohibited third party tool related to League in training mode, there's a good chance you'd still get actioned.

  2. It'll run when the respective clients of the games open, but not Riot Client.exe itself. So, if you are logged in on Riot Client, vgc.exe (which is the actual Vanguard program) launches when you click the Play button for League of Legends and the client pops up, and then closes once you close the client.

Hello there. I used AHK to press down key combinations, there is no logic involved. Is this bannable with Vanguard?

For example, I have my top 3 item slot actives bound to numpad 1-3. I will have Q trigger numpad1, W triggers numpad2, and E triggers numpad3. This way I can "attach" item arrived to certain spell keys.

I do this because I have RSI and struggled to hold the shift key or press further away keys than what is right below my hand.

https://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflegends/comments/1c1kgrk/dev_vanguard_x_lol/kz4dl39/ K30 says it better here than I'd be able to. hope that answers what you're wonderin.
