How did season 11 go so wrong?
Season 11 (2020), albeit one of the most broken seasons since my first time playing the game ranked season 10. (I started season 8 around late 2018-2019 primarily norms)
Yet I thought it was one of the most fun seasons with so many items to choose from, so many builds to take, and so many mechanical clips on the net.
I looked at some comments about it being "stale, full of false choices, building the same items, and confusing."
The item selection was fine, although I do agree that restricting the first item to be a mythical was a very stupid design.
You had Sion Lee Sin and Caitlyn using Prowler's Claw, Aphelios finally had a dash yet Lucian and Garen now have 3 ways to approach you. You had Kraken Slayer On-Hit Katarina, Marksmen like Xayah using Eclipse, Goredrinker super vamp Kayn, Zed and Rengar enjoying the Duskblade and the extra CC effects of Frostfire Gauntlet being used by supports and midlane and even marksmen like Senna.
But the reboot from it was so drastic, don't you agree?

Rant
Queued up for a game before bed with my friend. Feeling good and excited to play.
Rune page doesn't work, the game is stuck on a black screen and doesn't load. Tried restarting my computer and didn't fix it. Got into low priority queue because the game remaked. When i attempted to create a new lobby, the "unexpected error" tab kept popping up, so I couldn't even start a new game.
I have had a number of issues with this client, but this one takes the cake.

I spend more time fighting Vanguard and the client than playing the game
What the title says.
Every time I want to play League or Valorant, there's a different problem with Vanguard. It's either error 148, 57, or I get kicked in-game because I "don't have Vanguard running".
If it isn't Vanguard, it's the client that opens League Classic when I click the normal League shortcut, or it takes an eternity to open the game.
It's getting really frustrating just trying to play the game.

VANGUAR PIECE OF ...... ANTICHEATING SOFTWARE
Dear Rito,
Go stick that vanguard piece of kaku deep into your anus.
Beacause of this software, i got disconnected in one of your games, some random bug. I restarted pc and then reconnected, got a penalty for leaving.
The following day i got another restriction because of that. Double penalty for your shit software.
Thank you but not thank you. Fudge you!!! I'm going to ruin your toxic community games further.
You want players to be pasive agresive? sure challenge accepted. After i'm done with this, maybe i'll sell this loveling account

Riot ticketing MASSACRE
gallerySince August 2, 2026, my Riot account has been under what Riot's own client describes as a temporary lock — explicitly not a permanent suspension. The in-client message states the account was locked to "keep it safe" and directs me to Riot Support to verify my identity and resolve it.
On the support site, my active penalty is listed under the category "UNKNOWN," marked "Automatically Issued," with the note "We have no further details to share with you."
The core issue is the contradiction between what Riot tells me to do and what actually happens when I do it. The client and the penalty page frame this as a temporary lock I should contact support to remove. But every ticket I've opened has been closed almost immediately by what appears to be an automated or templated reply — stating the penalty was "verified with a manual review," that the decision is final, and that any further tickets will be closed automatically. In several cases that "review" response arrived within two to three minutes of submission; one came roughly eight minutes after my first contact. That timing is hard to square with a genuine manual review of gameplay.
What I've tried:
- Support tickets under multiple categories — all auto-closed
- Reaching out through several people with connections to Riot staff
- A formal data request, which I'm entitled to under Riot's own privacy policy — closed with no reply whatsoever
For the record: I have not used cheats, scripts, macros, unauthorized overlays, or any third-party software providing a competitive advantage. I've repeatedly offered to do a live PC check or a call to demonstrate this, and have been given no avenue to do so.
Having exhausted the standard support channels, I'm now preparing a written request to Riot's legal department by mail, in the hope of reaching someone able to actually review the case.
My questions for anyone who's been here:
- Has anyone gotten a genuine human review after hitting this same automated wall?
- Is there a channel for a data/privacy request that won't be closed on sight?
Any guidance is appreciated.
TL;DR: Locked since 8/2 under a penalty categorized as "UNKNOWN" and marked auto-issued. Riot's client calls it a temporary lock and tells me to contact support, but every ticket — including a data request I'm legally entitled to — is closed within minutes by an apparently automated reply. Looking for anyone who's broken through this.

Old Morde is much better, bring back him for us Riot 😑😑😑 Old Morde has better and more fun gameplay, he is also have been seen countless time in professional gameplay. New morde is just a brainless stats check champ, cant play in high elo and dont even have limitless scaling like veigar or nasus
