Anyone think we could stage a league of legends protest?

What if we got a good chunk of the league community to not play league of legends for a week. As it is it doesn't seem like many people are happy because of how high damage is, and maybe having a protest where we don't play league would force riot to actually think about what they are doing?

It would be hard to pull off. A lot of people are divided between the reddit and the boards. Most are only following one. You would need a lot of people to co-ordinate it. You would need a lot of people in every region boards + EU has a lot of different languages. Then you have to take into account that only a minute portion of LoL players follow the boards and/or reddit daily.

It would be next to impossible.

I get that, but do you think it would be possible, all it would take is a tree of players.

Something like If each player can convince 3 others to stop playing for a week It could daisy chain pretty quickly.

I don't know how many players are currently playing League, but if you can get a percentage to not play for a week, I think you can be heard.

50% is a nice number but too high. 20% could be nice, I guess, but depends on total players.

I'm guessing 10% would be feasible. It could shake them up a bit. It would be radical thou and I would read the ToS before doing something like that. If you impact their sales it might be a viable cause for legal retaliation against you.

Isn't a protest supposed to hurt their sales, isn't that kind of the point of a protest?

If everyone decided to do it of their own fruition, it's fine. If everyone does it out of coersion...It might be a case for the court... It's touchy but plausible.

I wouldn't pay them to do it... I would imply that if we get enough players riot might actually listen to the community again.

As i said, It's touchy. I would make sure to check the ToS.

You would have to get even the LCS players to go along with it, otherwise Riot would not care.

They only care for LCS gameplay and that's it. So they probably wouldn't even notice if their normal playerbase was gone for a week as long as they still have LCS shit going.

This will never happen. It is a very very very small percentage of people that follow the boards and complain about damage creep. And besides riot is already addressing damage creep
