Riot please, not again...

I’m part of the official League Partner Program with Riot Games. You can read about the program here:

[alondite]

nothing better than a program that runs itself once you turn on the pc, its perma running in the background while you do other stuff, but the second you go into actual league (the ONLY reason why its there in the first place), bastard says "nah im not runnin"

[MaxBurnHeart]

"You need to have Vanguard running to play."
But Riot, I do have Vanguard. You forced me to it!
"Don't care, disconnect!"
Another day in Summoner's Rift.

Thanks to all of you for sending me e-mails or tagging me on X!
Looks like Vanguard is having another major problem.
I got submissions from NA, EU, Turkey, LAS, Brazil - so I guess nowhere might be safe...

"Ah shit, here we go again" - CJ

[MohamOverKill]

I can imagine it happening in the Esports

[thekilla]

They were right about Vanguard solving the cheater issue.
If nobody can play the game then there can't be any cheaters.

[ArmanMZ]

I think I can handle that if we get a $800 Lux skin with Phreak's signature on it

[DiscountSupport]

Every day my decision to quit has become more justified

"One time, i thought League was working fine... but it died"

[ghosttiger]

the fact that people email vandiril instead of riot support is crazy though

[DjMillaz]

My favourite part? Earlier when I checked server status after my game crash, Riot had nerve not to say they had issues with Vanguard but we had the issues and we should try "troubleshooting" methods to fix. As if it was only a few people and it was a "you" problem.

[shcemx]

Happening in NA too, 6 people in my game, including me, all dc'ed. Two of them never rejoined back.

[microwave]

Guys, listen. Rito needs our help! We need to buy more $500 skins so they can fix the bugs and add more bugs to fix.

[GdBearman]

It's almost as if kernel-level rootkits shouldn't be a thing...

[BWEADGUY]

i guess this is riots idea of telling us to take a break

[aidaniel]

ah yes, my top mid jg dcs, leaving us with me as support and bot sona, enemy top mid ad disconnects leaving viego to powerfarm everything on the rift for more than 5 mins. eventually everyone joined back and viego went thanos

[RottenHeretic]

I love turning on my PC, to see the little icon pop-up in my peripheral vision, ignore the cmd that pops up for a split second with weird Chinese symbols on it. To then go into the Riot client only to be met with " Please restart your PC :3, no vanguard ".

IT'S RIGHT THERE, I CAN SEE THE ICON. IT'S NEXT TO YOURS!

[strongerthanever]

I can't believe it's a new thing, I've been seeing that happen from time to time since long ago. To both me and my teammates. I usually managed to reconnect, but sometimes League would just close completely and I couldn't get it to open again.
