This my greatest joy, i constantly need to justify not installing LoL to my friends because of Riots shitty anti-cheat. This proves that kernel-level is just unnecessary. And ive always wondered how you can claim it grants any protection at all when MacOS users can play without it? Its not like you couldnt cheat on a MacBook.
Yes, I used to bot league of legends and still have contact with people that do it to this day. Botters just switched to hackintosh VMs to circumvent Vanguard
It feels very nice knowing that my assumption was not completely bonkers. Thanks for confirming my sanity 🙏
Although, then I wonder, what is even the purpose of Vanguard apart from data collection? Because this attack-vector clearly negates the entire purpose of Vanguard.
Well, it probably also saves them a lot of money to only maintain a single anticheat system for both Valorant and League, compared to the 2 independent ones they had before
A nice fuck you to cheaters and “hnguuu we can only prevent cheating with kernel-level invasive software” alike

Data is worth a lot
Yeah. I know. Even though I hate Riot I guess some part of me wanted to believe their garbage anti-cheat wasn’t ONLY a harvester for private data

If you have to constantly justify not installing LoL you might need new friends. /s
Its just jokes, no hard feelings ❤️ Although it is annoying that they just accept spyware to play a game, but hey, thats their choice
