riot responds to 3rd party app ban

League of legends third party applications 2022 season 12

Personal opinion is riot should just add the jungle camp timers in game. I know blitz shows it pretty nicely and if riot just adds it it would maybe incentive people to play jungle more and open it up for more people ( a goal riot has stated they want to work towards )

When you think about it, it's comical that there's no real way to see someone else's runes unless you use a 3rd party app. No preview in the loading screen, no way to check in-game. You just have to guess their secondary runes or experiment until you find out.

[True_]

Honestly, I've got no problem with importing tunes, that's perfectly fine. I think the issue is with enemy's summs timer, which I feel gives an unfair advantage against players who aren't using it. It's a neat feature, but if riot had any problem with these specific 3rd party programs, it'd be with the summ timers

Next, Riot will increase the chance of permanently banning your account if you don't play with skins

[SherrifOfNottingham]

Spawn timers should be implemented through the game, as for "assistants" that give you at a glance info of your teammates and opponents are valuable resources and if they're worried about it being fair.... just implement those features into the game directly. I personally don't like to use other people's rune sets, though it is nice to see what the recommended (or at least the most popular masteries) so it can give you a starting point.

As far as I'm concerned changing skins shouldn't be an issue, since part of owning a skin is wearing it so other people can see it. But they want to quell all the people from being able to get "free skins" even if it's faked, it's really unfortunate for the custom skin community, like cheerleader morgana and gentleman singed.

Imagine riot banning people because they use blitz or porofessor and not because they are toxic or they int on purpose your game ^^

[notthalis]

This just in: playing in 5-man groups in Normal Draft is now a permanently bannable offense due to the unfair advantage it gives.

[devastatheseeker]

The fact that people need to use so many third party apps just to make the game better should show riot that they need to seriously revamp league pc. Refund everyone's rune page purchases and just give every champ 2 rune pages each like wild rift and people won't need to have apps that import runes.

[Shaguin]

Thanks for telling us about the banning.

[iiiivvvv]

Something funny I think is that the only time I thought someone was overtly using third party programs they were complaining that the enemy team was full of golds while we were all bronze in a game of ultimate spellbook. We literally lost before the game even started, in a for fun gamemode, according to them, and that guided their gameplay accordingly

[Motis]

Riot be like : " Oh no ! Third parties know our game better than us and can code things better than us ! Let's remove them ! "

[milccmann]

Matty always quick with the news. what a champion

[QuestionableLogic_]

Mortdog (A developer on TFT) once said how Riot generally views Overlays is that if it gives you information that you could have gotten before the game started, it's fine, and it's likely this philosophy extends to those third party apps as well.

[yassinebenabdallah]

Finally. No one will see my 26% winrate on rengar and start complaining about it

[mitsos]

RIOT: No we are not gonna perma ban the trollers but we are gonna perma ban the ones that are trying to help themselves by putting times in camps

[goobermeister]

Riot is kinda like Apple. Jungle timers should've been a thing years ago, but they never added it. When a third party app adds it themselves, Riot gets frustrated.

Kinda crazy.

[sorbbae]

breaking news: being anywhere above iron is now a bannable offence as you have an unfair advantage over other players, thanks!

[alanc]

Riot about to hit the same problems that OSRS did. Lets just skip to the chase and ask Riot to collab with these 3rd parties or implement a better client.

[Jvcques]

There are a thousand of problems they have to fix that make the game horrible and yeah, this is what they do.

[nosc_c]

To be fair, if any of the main apps start being bannable they will just stop working before that happens, and unavailable to download again. Happened with an app called curse like 7 years ago.

You guys can sleep at night, you won't wake up to a banned account.
