More than 2 years since taking over League of Legends, Riot has made the community go through many emotions
From the package with full League of Legends to 2022
In early 2022, Riot officially converted all accounts used on the Garena server to Riot's server. And all accounts that have been converted on time will have a “reward”, which will own all the generals who have participated in League of Legends until that time. Of course, for gamers who do not have full generals, this is an interesting privilege to help them be more interested in switching to “new home”.
As soon as he took over, Riot gave all the conversion accounts at that time with full generals that made the community extremely excited.
At that time, this move of Riot was really an advantage. Although there are still many difficulties during the conversion, but many gamers have proved extremely satisfied. Only thing, short joy is not gang and then the issues that Riot brings to Vietnamese players.
Vanguard and continuous apology when LoL players cannot enter the game
Since Riot has officially applied the Vanguard mechanism to prevent gamers from using the tool, hack or frauds into League of Legends, players fall into the scene of “bad crying and laughing”. Because, not only does some unrelated software have conflicts, but Vanguard sometimes makes gamers unable to enter the game or access but cannot play. More heavier, many gamers were also thrown out in the match and were deducted.
But the problem that starts occurs when Vanguard is applied to League of Legends and once made players unable to enter the game or conflict with software available on the device.
However, Riot is simply to apologize and overcome the problems later. What about compensation for gamers? Those are just concepts in the expectations of the player. In fact, nothing happens after these incidents from Riot to satisfy its customers.
Handling the drama “32 players”
One of the incidents that Riot shows the main strength is the negative “32 players”. At that time, this negative crop was ranked 3rd by the International Legends community in the top 5 of the largest negative cases in the history of League of Legends. However, in terms of damage, the case is not inferior if not the most heavy.
Riot thoroughly resolved the case of VCS players to arrange the score.
But one must admit one thing: these are the moves of Riot forced to make professional League of Legends and not bring any benefits to normal gamers. However, this has contributed to completely changing VCS as well as Esports Vietnamese.
Eliminating promotional events and recently is a series of important mechanisms in League of Legends
One of the most obvious changes of League of Legends while still in Garena and after returning to Riot is the promotional events to recharge the card almost completely disappeared. However, the original player can still pass. But “water drops” when recently, Riot announced the removal of the Hextech chest system and the quintessence of blue.
But recently Riot made players angry because of eliminating the Hextech chest system and the quintessence of blue.
Of course, not only Vietnamese gamers but the entire League of Legends community will receive this update. But for Vietnamese gamers who are familiar with Garena's incentives, now just returning to Riot has been removed from the most basic benefits, annoying is inevitable.
Moreover, according to some players, the deposit for Riot does not matter if the benefits are guaranteed to be worthy. Only thing, Riot is doing the opposite and forcing the player to “hook” in any way. But the method that Riot is doing is probably backfire compared to the expectation of this NPH.
