I want answers

Over the last 6 years I've played this game more than I would care to admit. I've unlocked almost 70 champions and 12 skins through INFLUENcE POINTS and Blue essence if I had bought all those champs it would have cost me 41,650 Riot points and the skins would be another 10,955 Riot points for a total of 52,605 Riot Points. 52605 Free Riot Points I have earned from playing this game. I don't like to float my own boat either but thats a lot of stuff to unlock through playing. I've even had a Riot employee comment on one of my threads asking "have you ever thought maybe you're just better than other players?" <-FYI/PSA the answer was no I didn't/don't think that, because arrogance and pretentiousness cause people to lose games. I truly hope that didn't come off as arrogance. If anything I was hoping for an appeal to ethos. That is to say, I wanted to let you know how much I have played this game so that the next part doesn't just sound like a raving lunatic or a tilted player. My favorite champion hands down has to be Akali. I've always enjoyed playing her but about a year ago I really started to learn her in's and out's. I was reaching 20+ kills a game with only 2 deaths or so per game, and in some games I would not die at all. I got so good at Akali in fact that she was put on the free to play rotation for 2months straight and every thread on here was "nerf akali" "omg akali broken" "omg get rid of champs that counter aggressiveness" "omg this akali just got 6 kills in a row on me because I refused to learn from my mistakes".

The problem I came back after a small hiatus during tax season this year and nothing has been the same. Practice mode everything is fine and all my abilities go off normal, dmg normal, champion still feels like butter. Hell even some of my first games in April were like that. Playing Akali was like spreading the world's smoothest butter onto a piece of toast. Then the fire nation attacked. Now every time I play this game one or more of the following things will happen in one of my games. **1) My abilities don't go off when I'm spamming them and in range. **(Ok lag ill blame it on lag. Except I have no latency? issues) Here is my favorite example from a game with an urgot. Urgot after being killed by me and my jg says "drop hacks" and then the next time i fight him my w doesn't go off at all. Meaning I was forced to stand there like a retard because someone else claimed "drop hacks." I know he can drop a slow w/ dmg, then machine gun me then flip me to keep machine gunning me then ult me for a kill. Why would I not go into my invisibility to counter at least some of that?

**2) I am seeing extra movement commands and attack commands being thrown in. **(Ok lag again? except I don't know how lag is making extra commands, if anything lag should be preventing some commands)

3a) my champion getting random stop movement commands. Like click to run somewhere and then sit there wondering where the fuck my champ is and why they aren't on screen even though they should have been already. Omg wtf is happening and why did my champion stop moving altogether?

3b) same as 3a but instead of stop commands my champ is just moving way slower than they should be. taking me 40 seconds to get to my tower from respawn? take me 15-20 seconds to get to the edge of the base from respawn? like i have 200 movement speed? I thought the lowest was like 320

4) abilities being thrown on cooldown without me ever pressing the button. LIke in one of my last games I ulted twice after respawn and my last ult (the third one) was on a 20 second timer?

**5) running out of energy on Akali after using 1 q ? **

The worst part is I pulled up a ticket with customer support and a Mr. Skeletor promised me there was no way any of this could be happening. Its getting frustrating. So much so that I have been reporting everyone in any game where something seems the slightest bit off. Because all of the problems I notice go away when Im in a practice game, but the second I hit a live game none of my abilities will work the way they do in practice mode?

honestly its just making me feel insane. I feel like everyone I complain to just turns a blind eye or acts like im deranged. ITs getting fucking annoying and I want answers as to what is happening. If Mr skeletor is right and there are no programs that can do this then that leaves RIOT and Riot employees. so what is going on? that is what i want an answer to. Im tired of getting so fucking tilted in the middle of my games that i start to play like shit. Im tired of breaking a mouse every 5 games because i have to deal with this bullshit. The worst part is it is getting progressively worse and more frequent.

Riot answer me this. Am i going fucking crazy? Or are you messing with me? Or is it possible that maybe just maybe other players could actually be cheating? Im tired of not getting answers from customer support and I'm tired of not seeing any repercussions for the people I have reported cheating. I want answers now. Thank you.

What do they say when you send a support ticket? Even if they don't have an answer they should at least be able to BS some "we're looking for a fix lul" answer.

I'm not sure what to tell you, no one else has been having these problems, or at least no one has complained about them.

I'd like to say it's on your side, but the actual in-game issues are hard to pin down.

I'd say try re-installing the game and it might fix the issues.

haven't had a reply. The only reply was from a Mr. Skeletor from customer service saying there is no way its happening and they will look into it. '''

I've deleted this game like 10 times now because of this shit. no it doesnt go away when you use the fix tool or when you just delete/redownload. I would like to say its on my side too dude.. I would like to be like "oh shit i did really bad there, oh well now i know what not to do."

and yea its subtle and its something you wont notice unless you have played over 500+ games on a champion thats how i started noticing it. now its just getting worse and worse.

Maybe if you have a way to record your screen you can record this happening and send it in, maybe they'll give you more credibility. Other than that, if it gets unplayable I guess it's best to just stop playing, I can't think of another fix. (Unless any of the other replies are helpful :p)

Any particular skin you or your teammates are using? I know whenever I use GK Darius, my latency spikes from about 50 ms to 250 ms and it gets completely buggy at times.

Then again, I have to find out what's causing my screen to alt+tab by itself, so please don't mistake me for some troubleshooting prodigy (:P)

Its happening with all skins on akali havent payed enough attention to skins on other champs.. Seriously I pretty much only play akali

It could be that in the game... you spend a longer time actually doing things than you do in practice tool.

If it is only happening recently, it could be that your keyboard is having some issues? Not entirely sure. I know i occasionally have issues of skills not going, but theres many things i can contribute it to instead, but it is only based on the various situations.

Keyboard? maybe like i said its been happening for 6 months and I feel like im going crazy because no there is no way to prove it and it could just be me. however ive been playing games for about 20 years now and this game for 6 so I would like to think I know the differences in pace from practice to normal game. And the way its happening just has me thinking there is no way its just error. It seems malicious. that's it.

the fact that your abilities not going off too elaborate on that for me if you can.

and its late im typing like shit sorry for no sentence structure here
