Riot Continues to Frustrate League of Legends Fans, Leaving VCS Community “Throwing in the Towel”
In the recent matchup between GAM Esports and CBTC Flying Oyster, the focus was on the high-stakes gameplay from both teams, but the match ended up being overshadowed by a series of unfortunate events. Instead of intense battles, the audience of VCS and the wider APAC region found themselves at a loss due to technical issues. The match was marred by a game delay of nearly an hour due to a critical bug that Riot has yet to resolve.
During the match, the champion K’Sante, played by Rest, became unresponsive due to a game-breaking bug. Instead of effectively contributing to team fights, K’Sante was merely a spectator, unable to execute any meaningful actions. This situation was reminiscent of a “glitch” that rendered the champion ineffective, which placed significant stress on the CFO team during crucial team fights.
Riot Faces Pressure to Continue the Match and Provide Relief to VCS Teams and Fans
As the situation unfolded, Riot was forced to continue the match despite the lingering bug affecting K’Sante, which remained unresolved. This has become a troubling scenario in the history of League of Legends. Previously, there has never been a match where a bug rendered a champion ineffective while both teams continued to play.
Moreover, reports indicate that this issue is not something that can be easily resolved, further exacerbating the frustration among fans. The constant technical issues in League of Legends have led to a sentiment of “throwing in the towel” among the community. This particular incident has highlighted a significant bug that directly affected the match, forcing teams to resort to subpar strategies just to bypass the ongoing issues.
