Game breaking bug/hack.

Romatis·11/12/2014, 10:37:01 PM·73 votes·23,512 views

I just played a game a couple of minutes ago as adc, and our support morg who had been trolling the entire game randomly got a penta kill. I wasn't watching, but shortly after she got a quadra with what appeared to be multiple botrk active affects. As someone who takes ranked rather seriously this kind of frustrated me, because even though it was advantageous to me it is still cheating. I am unsure if anybody else has posted about it, so I apologise if others have. Please investigate this player.

Edit: Just checked this player match history, which is complete wins in ranked. This needs to be patched asap.

Sorry we've been more radio silent on this than usual. When these things happen, we try to limit the amount of exposure that exploits get until after we've fixed them. This sometimes means remaining silent. We've had a team working to patch this exploit, which is beginning to roll out as we speak. In the meantime, members of our Player Support team & Gamer Security Unit have been banning players using this exploit, and are going to continue to do so until this has been fully resolved.

This kind of crap happens from time to time, and when it does, we drop what we're doing to address the issue. It's serious business, and we don't take it lightly. I assure you that the banhammer will be swift, and there shall be no hiding for those that took advantage of this.

the reason your post keep getting deleted is that riot already knows what is going on, and would appreciate that you stop talking about it, as to minimize the damage.

FIX IT RIOT. AT LEAST SHUT DOWN RANKED UNTIL YOU FIGURE IT OUT.

If it's any solace you're losing 20LP and that player is being permanently banned.

We are aware of an item exploit that some summoners are using. We are actively detecting and banning players abusing the exploit as well as working on a long term solution to this issue. Thank you for your patience while we work on this."

Riot deleted my thread too, I dunno why. But, Okay now three games with this guy "How does he". He plays Varus, and buys not 1 item, not even starting item. He constantly has potions with nothing in inventory. Not to mention, at lvl 11 he was 1 shotting our whole team. He would just walk up, and we all died. Weird thing is, he did no damage to towers or inhib, but when it came to attacking us, soon as he did or got close, we just dropped from 100%. He keeps making new accounts, all low lvl, im sure cause he gets banned. This shit needs to be fixed man, of course every game his whole team is asking for the hack, and im sure its just gonna get worse. Now at the very end, he bought two items, but the whole game he had nothing and was 1 shotting us, I dont know if you guys can see this link with my match history but, he has 17 kills at lvl 14 game ended. 10k gold, almost double what everyone else had, and way more minions kills.

I should note, the item he bought was infinity edge, so I dunno if its broken again, like Lucian 1 shotting everything with it,

Jinx just one shot everyone in a ranked game. I did not know this was going on. Would have been nice if riot let us know.

hack your not introuble and trust me other players feel the same way you do, but in this instance according to the guidelines for reporting a bug somewhere you crossed their line and they had to delete the post, it isn't they are trying to cover it up they are bound by those rules to keep these fourms escalating out of hand as well as protect the rights of those players even if they are cheating $*%*ards. trust me I feel for you it happened to me as well but only in a normal game, thx god I wasn't in a ranked one like with your situation or I might be doing the same thing you did. Teemo when in doubt just punch a teemo!

I think its sad how people need to exploit the game as if it is a single player video game to advance within the ranked system. I think riot stated they are in the process of permabanning all these people as they should, if you notice these people in your games report them at once. This isn't right, and it hurts the competitive nature of this game.

Riot should just disable the botrk as this bug/hack is too huge , disable it now until the bug is fixed

Hey, So I'm wondering what is going to be happening to people that used this exploit to boost other players? E.x. duo-queuing with someone using the exploit to raise your MMR. Also, what is happening to the people that just created smurf accounts in order to use this exploit with-out worry of having their main account banned? Is it going to be an IP ban that they get or something like that? I really don't want to have to play with players that did this.... It annoys me to have to play with people that are clearly boosted to a higher MMR and then can't compete and just ruin the game for you.

How come BOTRK hasn't been disable already? Just disable one item while the problem is fixed and everything can go back to normal, seems like a good temporary solution and a pretty obvious one at that!

I just saw this myself on an eve with no items. Suddenly she just started instagibbing the entire enemy team. You'd think that'd be enough of a bug to warrant a shutdown or something...
