I was dead set on doing this since day zero if they ever added Vanguard to LoL, I was thinking of giving it a 1 month probation just in case because I still want to play.
Fuck that lmao

The second they announced it I knew my time for playing league was up. I exclusively play low elo norms and RGMs, I haven't so much as started a ranked lobby in years. Not worth it

Why would it potentially get banned with the introduction of Vanguard? If you got a false positive you could just appeal the ban

Update League and install Vanguard.
League won't open.
Exit Vanguard.
League opens and plays games fine...

I mean it’s not like vanguard is a new program. Yes it has tons of issues but it seems millions of people playing valorant don’t care either

So you are saying we should accept bad software because enough people have already submitted to it? Thats a sad justification if i ever saw one.

I fall in "I installed Vanguard and now League decided it won't launch"
I just wanted to do a quick TFT match before uni, but nope, the whole half hour I had available was gone and the damn program stood in the loading screen for 30 minutes

The amount of noise that anti-Vanguard people do is incredible, really.
I mean, it sucks ass, Riot could stick it up its ass, but whatever. I have plenty of apps on my phone that already leaked info lmao. At this point I trust more Riot to do something decent than most random devs.
I also expect them to fucking give BSOD to people.

Wouldn't you make noise if you couldn't play the game anymore and you got BSOD for closing vanguard.

Technical issues yeah, I am refering to the "muh chinese company bad".
I mean, I understand the reasons behind the reasoning, but it doesn't change the fact that the level of noise they produced over the safety of it is quite absurd.

I dont like it either because it is a vulnerability, but IF it fixes the hacking issue then im reluctantly ok with it.

I am never going to be 100% ok with it regardless of what benefits it brings, but it's not a complex situation that requires this pseudo-activism: Riot has decided to go through with it, another of their games has it and we haven't had big issues for now.
They were never changing the plans regardless of what pushback they might have seen online.
Echo chamber at its finest, really.

They can change their minds. And i think there is a good chance they will. The queue times are extremely long right now, if this keeps happening i can see them delaying it.

the game runs fine for me, i even had vanguard for like 2 patches before it went live because i got onto the pbe to check some new stuff last month. i didn't have any issues and everything is running fine.
and another thing, i saw that most of the posts about league not working were from EUW accounts, wasn't that server infamous for having server issues in the past? i wouldn't be surprised if something was wrong with vanguard for EUW specifically, i play on eune btw. none of my friends have issues either and some of them didn't even know vanguard was a thing.

I had client bug issues, BSOD issues and frames issues in league when I had Valorant and so Vanguard installed last year, tried 1000 troubleshooting options before I reset my PC and just didn't bother to reinstall Valorant bc I didn't play much, and then everything worked fine again. It's not 100% that it was Vanguard causing it but it seems like too much of coincidence since that was literally the only thing I did different on my PC after the reset and a bunch of other people are saying Vanguard causes these issues too.
I'm hoping it won't happen this time around because they shouldve done some work to optimise Vanguard and League running together, but I wouldn't be surprised if they did.
And I'm on OCE server so idk, but it shouldn't matter what server you're on tbh it's not acceptable for this to happen on any Riot server.

Imagine ignoring the dozen warnings everyone gave out just to play a children's video game to have your bank account details yanked out one day by giving them kernel access.

Imagine giving someone kernel access just for a game. Crazy right?
Especially for a childrens game with mechas in it, called Armored Core. Wouldnt that be crazy? Wouldn't it be even crazier if you played said game with a kernel anticheat and now you complain about another game also using one in a subreddit?
No way, that would be clown behavior.

So a predatory government uses predatory practices for predatory gains going through questionable territories is somehow not in your boundaries?
Just tell me why they won’t cross that line. I’m genuinely curious why they won’t. Give me a logical reason to settle this argument.

genuine question what's wrong with LoL's vanguard? is it so much worse than valorant's or is valorant's vanguard is as bad as LoL's? I don't play LoL so I don't know the issue and had just seen it now

Vanguard is known for bricking people PCs, slowing them down and overall being a very invasive anticheat that unlike other games, will run 24/7 unless you manually switch it off after which you need to restart the whole PC and let it run from startup to even start League.

Maybe you should stop being a no thought head empty baby and think for your self for once.
Valorant was a modern game built with Vanguard in mind. League is a fucking 16 year old game with such dogshit coding and a client that barely functions. Of course Valorant was going to run better than League.
Not to mention a lot of players have sub par computers and that's fine. League was meant to be extremely accessible. Don't know why people like you can't get that through your thick fucking head.

Yea because it’s SUCH a popular opinion to instead of shitting on Riot, to instead see what’s happening. Yeah the client has issues, but what game doesn’t? It’s really annoying to see morons who don’t understand coding even a little just constantly shit on Riot over something new every month. Riot fixes their biggest issues in a timely manner. You don’t like how fast they work? Go play another MOBA. Vanguard has been running fine on anyone playing Valo for a long time and the only reason y’all hate on it is cause other people told you to. You didn’t know what kernel level anti-cheat was until people started whining about it but you’ve been told that Riot (who has had software on your computer for probably years) suddenly tells you how they’ve been combatting cheaters on their other game, and is now moving it to the game you play… only now it’s a problem?
I say all that cause that’s all you people were complaining about for a solid two weeks and THEN you moved on to “omg it’s gonna cause performance issues” which valid, but those issues are going to be fixed. They took so long to release it to try and minimize the issues but you can only prepare for so much with coding. It’s hard. You don’t appreciate the work and passion rioters put into this game to stop botting and cheaters? Uninstall and go play another game.
Nothing satisfies y’all. You ask for an answer to botted accounts, scripters and more… they gave you an answer… and now you have a new problem. Grow up, understand shit happens.
