kinky uwu - Summoner's Champion Information - League of Legends

My friends account has been hacked recently (he hasn't had access to it in over 3 months at this point) the name was changed to "Kinky uwu" by whoever has hacked it and been playing on his account since. His username was formerly "Rivaldmans" and he has been a top tryndamere/shyvana Tryndamere Shyvana main for almost 6 years by now and this person has played almost only Cass Cassiopeia in mid for the last several months. with the new changes to the launcher neither him or i know how he could regain access to his account and change his name back without paying money for a summoner name change. they have made purchases on his account recently and that is why he is in urgent need to get his account back. if anyone could give any information as to how he can regain his account and revert the name change, I would be greatly appreciative. I have linked the OP.gg for the account in question

They'll need to contact support through a ticket. They need to tell support that their account was compromised and go from there. It would likely help if they can specifically say when or which matches were not them playing.

Please make note, THEY need to contact support. You contacting support on behalf of your friend isn't going to get anyone anywhere.

Just a heads up, this post might get removed under the No Name & Shame rule.

Best course of action is for your friend to **file a support ticket ** and get in contact with Riot Support to discuss the situation. He has to be the one to file the ticket, not you.

It also might take a little bit of time to get a response depending on the length of the queue. Just have him file the ticket ASAP and make sure he doesn't "bump" or update it in any way until he gets a response because that will just move the ticket to the back of the queue. Best of luck.

Is it just me, or does this sound like "hey friend give me my account back, I want my old name again"?
