Why doesn't League of Legends have 2-step Verification?

Guy Fox Teemo··2 votes·1,314 views

Almost EVERY SINGLE other game, service, etc. has two step verification.

There is no reason not to have it, to many times have I seen people hacked and had their accounts banned, because of the hacker and it taking weeks upon weeks to try and get their account back, because while I appreciate Riot Support they are insanely incompetent when it comes to permanent bans.

No one wants to risk losing an account they've invested a ton of money and time in. Please make account security much more prevalent and an important issue. Preferably like Blizzard does, with them having an authentication app for logging in, AND another step for your phone.

League Of Legends is the most popular game in the world, it makes sense that they should have much better security options in place. And it not taking 7+ years or never.

I hate two-step authentication.

It could always be optional like most other video game services.

That's fine. But more and more it is becoming required, which is annoying.

Not really. Setting it up normally is mandatory but using it after isnt.

Oh then i hate it. Cant support that, especilly if i cant use my voip number.

No game requires it; They just offer it

Honestly, I'd prefer something similar to Steam's authentication system.

Logging in on a new device? They'll email you a confirmation code.

Otherwise, it will behave as normal.

Overwatch and League of Legends are not even similar games. Stop comparing them.
