"The game is still alive, but...." "Given that the game is still alive, but..." Make up your mind

[amanosatoshitranslates]

West always thought mobile gaming market is not worth until they find out it is. They tried to grab some but nobody is willing to play the thing that they don't know.

[catalinpth]

The game isn't completely dead yet, but it's unplayable. The matchmaking system is bad, miserable, and nothing is being done about it. The report system is useless, interesting events don't exist, everything has become a gacha that is meant to squeeze players out of money. Good players have quit the game, the competition has disappeared. It's a shame, because graphics are EXCELLENT, the controls are EXCELLENT, it's superior to any similar game

[MrfunnyStuffk]

The only gripe i had is the loading screen just take way too long. Mlbb took like 8s just to load in which is crazy. Really hoping they fix their loading screen time.

[Popsicleed]

Wish this was available in india. Why is it not even available?

[TheHeir]

Unfortunately, LOL WR here in PH is dead.. sad but true.

[mfahao]

Nope, introducing the game to India is NOT gonna help at all. And Riot didnt missed any opportunity for doing that. What Riot need to do is keep the investment on eSports and game updates (features/skins etc). Remember MLBB start off as a joke too back in South East Asia but Moonton start investing heavily in the eSports (prizepool keep getting better), media, keep updating the game and become popular and the population start taking it seriously as professional. Because of that, they also got the sponsors they needed - which further increase the prize. Their recent mid season cup in Riyadh prizepool is worth USD 3Mil…like 😱!!! Many eSports Org in SEA created started off by having MLBB team competing in the pro league. Their world championship (M series) began just 6 years ago.

I think Riot just want to focus on its big PC version. If they really want in Mobile version, im sure they can do it already by now more than Moonton can. Its not a lost chance, Riot can still do it, they just chose not to. Perhaps ego, thinking mobile games could never mount to anything. Well Moonton has so far proved that wrong 😂

[mrchiccolatte]

U kept saying wild rift is dead in 2022, wild rift is dead in 2023, wild rift is dead in 2024 and now wild rift is dead in 2025 😂. But the game is very much alive with it's constant updates, skins, events and champions added every month. The game is very much better than it was 3 yrs ago.

[nanoyabness]

wildrift actually not that bad. It’s better than any moba mobile games

[samirankalita]

Problems with Wild Rift:-
1)Their enmosity with MLBB which offended most of the hardcore MLBB fans especially in SEA region.
2) They were too late to the mobile MOBA market.
3) Slow paced game on mobile device
4) Copy pasting LOL pc on mobile
5) Not enough marketing after the initial few ads
6) Not launching the game in India....since MLBB was banned back then Wild Rift could have easily taken the whole Indian MOBA community

[daymon]

One of the problems is they putting so much unnecessary add on. Causing prolonged the game and end up your phone cannot withstand the game due to battery consuming.

[awoel]

I hope with the release of Arcane, Wild Rift can have a boost in player base

[Byakuya_ML]

Wild rift was league experience in phone. The problem was why would anyone want to have league experience on phone? That slow paced game is more suited to sitting on your chair and turning on your pc.

[TonyStark-elgj]

League of legends wild rift didn't release in india and other parts of the world it's still in pre registration

[bunnytokki_]

Remember those days when League players said Wildrift will kill and end MLBB? Good old days lmao. Seriously, I genuinely love the League's lore than MLBB and when they announced Wildrift, I was so hyped because I wanna play it and I didn't have a pc to play League. As it turns out, MLBB's gameplay is far more fast paced and digestible mechanics for a casual player like me. I ended up quitting because why learn a new MOBA when you already have an account from another MOBA which you invested in with skins and heroes.

[DEPITY]

WR's first year could have been better if the developers were able to cater the community's concerns. They are very slow on bringing patches every now and then. What they really wanted is just for the LOL pc version to be played in a mobile device. They wanted to rival MLBB but forgot the foothold they are stepping on.

[martinamartins]

I played this for like 3 Months.. but the game feels so incomplete to me... Now I'm currently playing HOK but I also feel like it was also incomplete

[Zorahime]

if only they released the game much earlier😔

but i still play it every now and then

[angamaitesangahyando]

Imagine recalling every time to buy items.
