Seriously, why does League need to tab me out of other programs 8 fucking times? What's the point of having sounds for the alerts? Like seriously, god fucking forbid I try to play ANYTHING ELSE while I wait for a fucking game.
God I hate this as well.
I like to do things when I'm in champ select and waiting for the match to start, and I can hear everything going on from the client. There's no reason for the client to pop up simply because we hit 5 seconds.
Can i have fucking old client back because this new piece of shit eats resources and sucks. I literally cant watch a youtube video while this piece of shit is patching
oh my god this shit. if it popped up and that was that, it wouldnt even be as big of an issue as it is. I have no fucking idea WHY the client needs to come up when theres 10 seconds left in the lobby, as ive clearly already input my champion and rune picks, but whatever right? so what if it kicks me out of my chrome tab for a second
EXCEPT ITS NOT A SECOND. FOR SOME GOD FORSAKEN FUCKING REASON, WHENEVER IT POPS UP AND COMPLETELY ECLIPSES MY YOUTUBE VIDEO OR ARTICLE I WAS READING, IT STAYS FOR THE LAST FUCKING 10 SECONDS UNTIL GAME START. NO MATTER HOW HARD I SPAM CLICK MY CHROME TABS OR MY OTHER GAME, THE LEAGUE CLIENT SITS THERE SCREAMING """PAY ATTENTION!!!! YOURE ABOUT TO HIT LOAD SCREEN AND SIT AROUND FOR 5-15 MINUTES DOING NOTHING!!! CLICK ME!!! PAY ATTENTION!!! LOVE ME!!!" FOR THE WHOLE 10 SECONDS. LIKE, GREAT. NOW THAT VIDEO I WAS WATCHING IS GONNA PLAY THROUGH THE ENTIRE LOAD SCREEN OR THAT GAME I WAS PLAYING IS GONNA GO ON WHILE IM AFK. THANK YOU SO MUCH.
anyways the current league client is a literal steaming shit pile.
My personal favorite is how the window pops up in front of everything but doesn't actually take cursor focus.
Bro to check your runes and summoners or someone is talking to you or you forgot to swap, is actually good
Taking focus when a queue pops is fine. Queues can take several minutes, so people often do something else during that time with the expectation that they will be alerted. When a queue pops, you only have a few seconds to act. It makes sense to take focus in this case.
However, the other half dozen times the client is programmed to take focus are absolutely unnecessary. If someone has accepted a match, they are well aware that they will soon be put into champ select. If they alt-tab at that time, it stands to reason that they are doing so with the knowledge that they are currently in champ select. There's no need to set focus back to the client on basically every event a few seconds apart. If Riot released a public API to enable third-party clients, someone might actually make a good one.
So annoying that I swapped the game to run in windowed mode and got a dual monitor setup as well.

one thing that bothers me about your client is how fucking needy it comes across, like it's something special. I launch the game and the icon starts flashing orange like it's important, I click on it to see it's not even finished loading the log in.
Needy attention whoring move
When I am watching youtube waiting for the client to do its thing the client brings itself upfront over anything else I was doing, I try to type to log in and the client doesn't even have the log in section highlighted despite forcing the shit to override everything you're doing.
It's an attention whoring gimmick, and it bugs the shit out of me every time I want to play the game but I am also doing other shit with my computer.
I made post about how annoying their client is 16 days ago
yeah it's annoying as fuck
God i wish i could upvote this 10000x
Yeah this also annoys me
So the League client is pretty much a cat?
