      There's also Direct Memory Access, which happens at the hardware level--basically, instead of trying to get at the RAM via the kernel, you get at the RAM via a PCIe card that just reads from RAM like any other component would
      On FPSes you can also often abuse QoL/accessibility features like crosshair highlighting by having a device read the pixels at the center of your screen and emit a LMB input when something turns red. What are you gonna do, ban people for left clicking? (You can do statistical analysis on the inputs, but...Vanguard ain't statistical analysis. It's a thug with a crowbar telling you he'll stand in your living room and bonk any suspicious processes.)

    As someone who played on the Chinese server, it is nothing like any of the other servers.
    The main distinction would be China’s flat out size as a country. There is no way you can have a singular server host that many players across such a large and wide country.
    What did they do? They split China into roughly 30 separate regional based servers for players to select ones that have the most comfortable ping. This means that each and EVERY server was segregated and individual from one another and required a purchase of a region transfer to be moved to and from once accounts were made. This also means that each and every server had its own distinct player base as well as ranked ladder. Demacia’s ranked ladder would be completely separate from Noxus’s ranked ladder much like how NA’s ranked ladder has nothing to do with EU West or EU North’s respectively.
    Examples: Players playing from Taiwan typically selected a server named Black Rose, while I played on both Ionia and Zuan from Shanghai because the pings were both below 20.
    That being said, it baffles me that the NA server decided to completely fuck over their pro scene and west coast players by moving their SINGULAR server to Chicago rather than add a Midwest server as well as an East Coast server instead.

      I didn't realize that Riot decided to move their server. No wonder as of recent the game has been...a bit clunky to me. And maybe it was just my imagination, but some of the players I was playing with...start dodging a bit...too good. I'm E1/D4, and yes, there's always at least 2-3 smurfs in every game (which Riot refuses to do anything about since it boosts their player base), but a lot of them dodge at angle you wouldn't think they can or the player behavior is just strange. It's to the point nowadays in order to ensure a skillshot hit, I would just point-blank things at times just to be safe.

      Yeah, its true it sounds crazy, but if we analogize this to something in real life, it isn't so crazy. Imagine instead of a video game, Riot ran a pick up basketball league. They matched people based on skill. Every once in a while, you get a crazy dude who stabs the basketball with a knife to cancel the match so they don't have to lose. The player keeps showing up using fake names and IDs and keeps ruining games. After a while, you will call the police on them and them that they aren't allowed to be part of the league, and that they will be sued if they continue. This sounds pretty normal and fine imo.

    There is no speculation to be made about any form of sending requests to riot's API to be blocked by Riot Vanguard. It's literally how their client works. Lobby crasher and all the other exploits in the client just abuse POST and GET requests which Riot doesn't care to check. From what I know in the last 4 years the only thing they cared about enough to add a check for literally ddosing clients by spamming game invites and some lobby crashers..

    As a developer, I will say many of the issues with the league client are not really technological but the result of lazy developers/bad prioreties or poor dev management. In theory (just like the game) the client should just be a user interface that allows you to request that actions be performed on the server, for example 'queue me up', 'edit my runes', etc. Just because you have a client that doesn't use web technology doesn't mean you are immune to primitive exploits like the ones shown here.
    In my personal opinion, serverside anticheat and correct serverside access control could be used to make it nearly impossible to tell the difference between a cheating player and a good one. That is to say that cheats can only take advantage of artifically increased latency to make moves based on the state of the game in the future. (and ofc scripts which will always be an issue in every game no matter what in my opinion) If you want an example of this take a look at the most advanced minecraft anticheats, the developers of these anticheats don't even get to control what data the game sends between client and server and even with this incredibly sigificant handicap they can still bring cheating to almost zero without installing anything on a players computer.

    On the topic of LCK games not using a "true lan" because they still connect to an online server even though everyone is together -- riot actually does self-host local servers on premises for Worlds specifically because of networking problems that they've had in the past for tournaments. So they definitely know about the concept and have experience with it. I'm surprised they haven't done this for the regional season matches like you're pointing out, since those tend to always be at one location for the entire season, it'd probably be much easier to setup than worlds, since that moves between several locations during the tournament even.

    Tl;dr riot's trash spaghetti code client is still a root for most problems of these kinds in the game. I genuinely don't understand why they don't shift to a one-client style like Valorant which they literally have the functional code for and they could probably transform to league in maybe a month of work behind the scenes? This would solve so much more issues, make it a more modern client and not cuck people with random google chrome pop-ups that interrupt their games (I have a couple friends that claim they keep getting randomly stuck in chrome lmao).

    The community is not afraid of Vanguard itself, we even encourage Riot to develop and ship it out. What we dread is: When it gets compromised, any infection nests directly at the base of your machine, which from a cyber security standpoint is equivalent to a doomsday scenario

    Honestly I dont know how I feel about vanguard because its kernel level software. Everyone says that its just meaningless paranoia, but its important to understand that when you give any software kernel access like that they bypass all security protocols in place on your computer. Software never asks for this sort of thing because its not ever necessary to except for this one situation for cheat detection.
    This includes both the security of not having crappy code brick your computer and not giving away access to all the data currently running on your machine. I had a lot of issues with games/software not running properly when I last had vanguard installed for Valorant and it was very irritating that I was closing out of vanguard to play other games and then restarting my computer to be able to play Valorant.
    I just absolutely do not have faith in Riot to not write and push out dangerous spaghetti code. I dont want to rely on their amazing track record of cybersecurity and believe that they arent just giving other hackers a really easy backdoor into installing ransomware on my system. Not worth, rather just deal with cheaters occasionally.

    Online gaming is so plagued right now. I remember cheaters being a problem for every game as long as I've played games, but currently the amount of people who hack has grown soooooo much more. I believe it simply comes to 3 core factors:
    1) Many popular games actually have been developed quite some time ago and with lack of constant technical upgrades they just won't be able to protect it's players from new hacks
    2) People who design and develop hacks are learning and adopting to existing systems that are supposed to prevent hacking + we have AI now that also powers the hacks (fairly enough this can also be used against hacks too)
    3) Online games are getting a little bit out of hand in terms of accessibility and every game tries to be mechanically WAAAY too advanced for average gamer, so the last resort for many of them is just to purchase / download hacks.
    PERSONAL SIDE NOTE:
    Remember when we had so many click and point abilities? Remember stunning/snaring GP with point and click and NOT being mad about the fact he has Orange to cleanse the CC, because it was NOT hard to land CC at first place. Now you have to try hard to land abilities and in case of mistake from GP side - he can always cleanse that mistake. Do you feel the same as you did when we had those simple abilities? And this is just one example of how frustrating game design leads towards a popularization of hacks in games.

    One thing to note is that with the leak of the source, that could entirely be tied to the DDoSing of servers and gameclients by malicious actors, as the source could possibly include the encryption method used to hide Riot IDs. The source itself must include the functions used to encrypt information, and if the people who got a hold of the source have the knowhow, they can reverse these functions and make a tool that would let them ping and decrypt information from an account.
    With the Chinese client being vastly different (This could also be the case fo GArena as well), this means that the encryption method they use locally is different to those used on the global client. This is a significant point that I think should be made, since it was only AFTER the source was stolen that these things began to happen, and since then, actions have only escalated.

That would take years of work, even without taking into account the fact that they would have to code new champs items and all for both games at the same time.
      Overwatch and Overwatch 2 are an example of what they had to do to remake Overwatch in a new engine: stop working compleatly for a long period of time in the old game to make the new one. If Riot did the same the game would just die for not having new content for months or years.

    Windows has extensible firmware inerface mapping, which allows you to load drivers that disguise your cheat's client hooks as system calls (and much more) before the kernel itself is even loaded. Vanguard can still observe and compare your system's performace to anomalous in-game behavior, but it isn't a silver bullet. Cheating is just a little harder, and you'll likely have to replace hardware when you or someone else using your cheat is caught. The likely result of implementing Vanguard is that selling cheats becomes less lucrative, and the number of BLATANT scripters in high elo games decreases. The people cheating quietly will continue to cheat quietly, as they do in Valorant.

    Simple solution, make dodging a part of the game. Some of us only have time to play 2 games a day at most. Give me one or two free dodges a day. It could also vary depending on elo or how much you play.
    Like high elo where matches take forever to find don't get a dodge. But if you play more than 6 games a day you get a bonus dodge.
    Also T swift is for men too

    It is surely a fun to watch people relaying on Vanguard as a remedy against all cheats, since even in VALORANT it isn't that effective. Yes, it is a kernel level anticheat, which is basically free rootkit for any malware to blend in, but so do the cheats nowadays.
    And after news that Vanguard was suspended and them removed from test servers, it seems that it is unlikely anti-cheat will be present at least for the next 3-4 months, or even to the end of the year.
    I guess that most of the issues that League has, it is being outdated from the game code, security-related issues, as well as generally outdated frameworks which people can exploit, laugh their asses off, DDoS, and tinker with them as they pleased.

    The boosters/booster pawns don't even need hacks with lane que. They just run botted accounts in there opposing lane and feed themself 6 early. With the riot AI improvements, and actual AI they even chat when you call them out to create static.

    Probably two years ago or so I got a scion in my game who legitimately could keep ulting constantly as well as change the direction of his old middle. We were in the jungle one time and he literally did a 180 with his old and an area that’s about a fourth wide as a lane.

      You've had genuine luck lmao. I've been through the same elo's and I've spotted quite a few more. I'm mostly talking about scripters / botters which still falls under 'hacking' or cheating though, not as much as these lobby crashers or drophacks. As you start approach diamond there's a lot more scripters around, more common in streamer lobbies and being caught in 4K with riot taking no action lmao. On the other end, you have people botting in ranked to force demote accounts to iron to sell them afterward, which is still being done very much so today. Seen a lot of them, I have shit luck

    • @wnsjimbo2863

      ​​@@DIDeusIratus i consider scripters as hackers in this context and they are rare (even in master).
      Not only this but its obvious they are cheating, they play 2 champs (xerath casi ) 90% of them, the other 10% just adc players.
      And at the end its fine , they still lose most if their games because scripts are not powerful enough of you are not already good player and most of them they are not
      Ps: the funny thing is i am otp noc which makes their scripts 100% useless, they can't dodge point and click cc 🤣🤣🤣🤣

    People say scripts and other types of hacks/exploits are uncommon for LoL, meanhile I've encountered hundreds from S4-S11 at the top of the ladder. Players who've been openly doing it, those who wanted to hide it, those who sold accounts/boosts and whatever else there is to think off. LoL highelo has always been plagued by scripters and other types of exploiters and even if I quit a while ago, I've seen people say it has become way more common when I'd argue, it already was pretty common to begin with. The majority of players just are not within the space where this occurs the most.

    Funny you didn't mention how Vanguard is actually a rootkit that is installed on your system on a kernel level, in layman's terms that means the program is given privileges as powerful as your operating system itself. Do you trust Riot, a subsidiary of Tencent, a Chinese company, enough to let this rootkit run on your PC.
