The League of Legends client is still broken, stop focusing on TFT.

It is INCREDIBLY frustrating that Riot has decided to introduce a new dedicated game mode whilst their main game is suffering. The client has been a bug riddled mess for an extremely long time, they've had plenty of time to do something about it, people have complained incessantly about it (rightly so), yet it seems like they have done absolutely nothing about it whatsoever. All we get are excuses, skins, and gamemodes that people will forget about in less than a year's time. Introducing a new gamemode is not going to help revitalize your playerbase if your base game is inherently broken. Do you know how annoying it is to have your game randomly crash in the middle of a winning ranked game while you're all focused on a new gamemode that people are already unhappy with? If your company still lacks the experience to manage one game, making another one is not going to fix the problems in the first one.

Not how this works. You cant stop development on one thing to have them fix something completely different, especially something where the issue is 99/100 times user end. Different teams do different things. TFT team doesnt know how to do anything with the client.

I have an extremely difficult time accepting that the programmers who are working on TFT, which is a part of the same client, have absolutely no idea how the main game and client work at all. Point is, when there is a glaring issue with your game, making a completely separate game mode gives off the attitude of "we don't care".

the game code and the client code are 2 VERY different beasts

and the one of the likely culprits of the client being a shitshow is they're using an extremely dated version of chrome because they had to support windows XP, now that they've dropped support they can update to the latest version. That's gonna take some time though, they probably have to undo a lot of hacks they made to make it work with the old chrome
