When do we get 4k Support

I don't really see any recent threads regarding this, all of them are 1 or 2 years old so I'm just going to post this. Why does league still not support 4k Resolution? In game the graphics look beautiful on 4k, especially the champion textures, but there's still some issues that I think could be easily fixed. Here's a screenshot so you can see for yourself: https://i.imgur.com/i6zrGZX.jpg The minor issues are the really small turret armor icons as well as smaller emotes, though since I use a lot of emotes I find it a little irritating for them to be smaller. One of the bigger issues is the fact that the chat is tiny, especially in ranked gameplay because I miss some call outs since when the chat is this small, I do not notice a lot of what is going on. The last issue you can't see in the screenshot, but it is the cursor being smaller in 4k resolution. Though I can scale it up in the settings, it doesn't quite scale up as large as it would normally be in 1920x1080, and so I've noticed that I find it harder to target a champion/minion for auto attacking while the cursor is smaller than usual.

Since there are already scaling options for the chat and cursor in the interface, I think a simple solution would be to simply allow you to increase the maximum scaling amount, since they are still too small at maximum scale when on 4k. As for the turret armor icons and emotes, I think either a scaling option could be added for icons and emotes too, or this issue can just be fixed so it won't be a problem anymore on 4k resolution. Thoughts?

No, they should fix the game first. 4k = more bugs and I can't stand with that

I would bet my ass that not even 0.1% of the player base run this game on 4k. Doubtful about your "support".

maybe only 0,1% of the players is affected, but they do offer the option for 4k res, so they should properly scale everything. Everything else but the emotes works properly in 4k, so they should be able to fix them too. I wouldn't even mind if 1080p was the highest resolution possible, but since you can play in 4k, it should work properly. since it doesn't, you really should not go around and blame people for wanting their game to look nice and proper, even though it doesn't affect you.

Play at 1920x1080, that should still give you a crisp picture as it is half the 4K resolution.

They actually fixed a ton of issues with 4K. It's definitely easily playable and supported now, but like back in Season 5, it was unplayable.

It isn't just 4K, it is any high DPI monitor like newer laptops. Most of the game works okay, but the Chat box is still tiny
