Hello guyss,

After Surrender at 20 shut down (RIP), I was kinda lost. The replacement JungleDiff feels overloaded with ads and honestly the design just isn’t it for me..

— no disrespect though.

So I decided to make my own blog about PBE preview changes: Surrender At 15

Mainly built it for myself and friends to have a clean overview of PBE updates and upcoming skins, but I’ll be active there a lot! I also added a chat so you can interact with others — emojis, gifs, the whole thing is setup.

And yeah, it’s completely free and has zero ads.

If you’re into clean, simple website for PBE leaks and updates, feel free to check it out, Thank you guys

Over 1 hour of me, a normal dude, doing fucking IT work to try and open your game? How is this normal?

Let me elaborate: Vanguard has been glitching for a while. I've been meaning to fix it so I can play some league of legends. Ended up deciding to do that tonight.

Followed every single instruction - from restarting and entering bios, enabling secure boot, setting up a PK, etc... then reinstalling league 3 times total, reinstalling vanguard 3 times total, restarting pc a total of 11 times. Going into my AMD, thoroughly checking everything... restarting FUCKING AGAIN... Nope. Vanguard still doesn't turn on normally.

I did nothing, man. Everything was working fine for a year straight. One day I turn my PC on and it just doesnt work. I've changed nothing, done nothing. I just spent over 1 hour playing unpaid IT-guy to try and play the most toxic game I've ever downloaded in my life.

Maybe I'm just stupid for even trying. Y'all don't deserve the players you have, man. What a joke.

I wanted to vent, thanks reddit

I have been suspended 3 days on League for typing a bad word that i'd rather not post here. Then after the suspension was over i played a few games normally and got suspended again for ''toxicity'', same logs shown, didn't say anything else since i played those games while being chat restricted. Tried to chat directly with the support tru their bot but it keeps creating tickets. Can i get assistance ?

Edit: It was an error and my suspension got lifted, thanks for the positive comments.

dude, I recently got my region of residence changed to be USA but when I go into the actual game, my server options are only eu. I tried submitting a support ticket like I did when I wanted to change regions, but they just copy and paste it this stupid essay of personal questions that I need to answer to switch regions. I DON’T WANT TO SWITCH REGIONS. MY REGION IS ALREADY SWITCHED. I KEEP TRYING TO TELL THEM THAT BUT MY RESPONSE IS TO THE TICKETS GET DELETED RIOT SUPPORT IS SO GARBAGE. does anybody know how to fix this? its been almost 2 weeks like this idk what to do other than just lose my fuckin account

Vanguard kicked me out of champ select now I am sitting at -4lp. I lost 20lp from this? Like what.
Riot please fix.

I’m beyond fed up at this point.

League of Legends is the only game on my PC that crashes like this. Not Cyberpunk, not newer demanding games, not anything else. I can run heavy games smoothly on a high-end machine with zero issues, but League somehow manages to crash violently and sometimes even make my entire PC crash/restart.

My laptop is an ASUS ROG Strix G18 with an RTX 4070 Laptop GPU and an i9-14900HX. This is not some weak setup struggling to keep up. It handles everything else perfectly fine. The only game that behaves like a broken piece of garbage is League.

I also keep seeing frequent vgm/Vanguard-related errors, along with other system-level nonsense around the crashes. That is not normal. A game like League should not be capable of dragging an otherwise stable high-end system into full crashes when literally every other demanding title works flawlessly.

And before anyone says “update your drivers” or “check your system,” I already did. I’ve done various system updates, checks, troubleshooting steps, and everything else I could reasonably do on my side. I even contacted Riot Support, and that was completely useless. No real fix, no meaningful help.

What makes it worse is that I’ve played this game since the beginning. I’ve been around for years, and this issue only started second half of last year. So this is not me discovering some random ancient issue for the first time. Something changed, and Riot’s garbage low-level anti-cheat / client / whatever mess they’ve built is the only thing on my PC that causes this kind of violent instability.

At this point I can’t even play ranked on my main account anymore, and that account was Master. I’m not going to let a random crash decide the outcome of a game. I’m not going to queue ranked knowing Riot’s broken mess can nuke my client or my whole PC in the middle of a match.

I’m genuinely at the point of hating this company for it. It’s absurd that one of the oldest games I play is also the only one capable of crashing my whole system while modern AAA games run flawlessly.

Has anyone else had League be the only game that does this?

Even if I am active on my computer, my client will set me to away after a few minutes.

Nothing's changed, no new setup or anything like that.

But since the past week I had league games freeze and crash without client noticing it, so you have to restart the whole client in order to get back in.

Ok, scared me that something is broken in my PC but w.e it happened like 2-3 times maybe it's a league thing.

Now, it won't even let me open Spotify, Discord, Steam. Turned off Vanguard and everything is fine.

Mostly posting to see if anyone else had weird stuff happening recently, and to spread awareness ig.

But, it seems a lot of people have been having these issues for a long time? I never had any issues at all until literally the past 2 weeks.
