The rewarding move for people can “break” Riot's security system is not new. Previously, Riot Games also awarded $ 100,000 to the person who could find the error of the Vanguard system built by this publisher for Valorant.
Now, Riot Games has continued to hang a reward to solve DDOS, the problem is very famous in the League of Legends community, especially related to the T1 team. Up to now, Riot Games has not been able to solve this problem and may affect the players of the defending world champions for the new season.
It can be seen that this program is how Riot doubles its commitment to anti -fraud. By encouraging researchers to find the weaknesses of Vanguard, the publisher hopes to patch hidden holes before toxic hackers have the opportunity.
In addition, it is worth noting that the bonus is only for vulnerabilities of Vanguard's nuclear drivers. To win bonuses, hackers need to send evidence of solid concepts and strict rules. If publicly talked about the gap found, hackers will not be eligible to receive bonuses.
However, the fact that Riot is publicly hanging a problem can show that this publisher is “helpless” with DDOS. The 2025 season is preparing to start and if there is no problem to solve the problem, the LCK tournament will surely receive many negative effects, affecting the competition teams.
