Why do the replay sites suck so bad?

Replay.gg suck so bad? I have a couple games where I did really well but replay.gg only saves some every once in awhile and i search every player in the game and still can't find my game I'll get so close too they'll be using the same champ on the same day AND STILL I can't get the exact game I'm looking for seriously? what are they doing? every replay saved? I don't think so! Is there ANY where at all where I can see games before signup and I mean every game in the past month or so? I really would like to save these replays and watch them again or show my friends

It would be a huge waste of their server space to save every replay, and not likely even possible. You have to open it and tell it to record each match because it only automatically saves high profile players.

If you want to save your own replays every game, I suggest getting your own replay program. I use Baron Replays.

As for getting replays for your old games, it's not possible unless someone specifically set them to be recorded (and I think op.gg saves them for only 10 days). You're pretty much out of luck on that front.

There are programs which will record your games and save the replays to your machine.

If you really want to capture every game you play, use one of them.

SkinSpotlights Replay is the best replay software I've found. Its so stable that even Riot used it during worlds to replay pentakills.

auto records every game you enter and labels everything down to your KDA at the end of the game. It's actually pretty awesome, and it auto starts when you start your computer, while being fairly lightweight so it doesn't bog down your performance. You can also use it to make highlight clips and such if youtube is an interest of yours. It's only from your perspective, however that's really all you need to look at to get better yourself.

Alternatively you could utilize OBS to record your games, but that's a much heavier weight program. I've used both and they both work great for me. OBS would let you permanently save them to your computer directly though, I think Plays.tv uses some sort of cloud system.

and they work without any screen cap stuff? I really thought these sites were cool at first because I played well not knowing i was "recorded" in a sense so It's not like I tried to show off or something it was just me having a good game and doing everything right without getting flustered from making stupid mistakes I could learn how to always play like that constantly like that by watching these again but thanks for the suggestions I'll check them out hopefully they won't slow down my computer or anything my processor isn't great right now
