They're just trying to match the toxicity of their players.

can't be done, but they're making an admirable go of it.

With the most braindead reason,

There are barely any Linux users...

Riot... I quit the game because I didn't want to bother with proton and get mad when it goes wrong. And I knew kernel anti cheat would come. And all the Linux fans who are addicted enough are running the game on windows specifically. I literally have a friend with a windows VM with graphic card passthrough to play league of legends... That guy gets counted as a windows User....

Fucking idiot create the most toxic environment for Linux users and then say they don't attempt to support Linux because the Linux users didn't bother to fight their shit enough in a detectable way.

well it's good for us, I think. it wasn't fun anymore last time I played it, and it was never a healthy habbit.

The fact that it won't run on Linux anymore is, what finally got me out of it.

I've never spent a dime on it, but I've wasted so much time on League for over 10 years.
Being on Linux exclusively saved me.

I am in a similar boat but I disagree with saved me. I just cared more about my friends than the game and my friends were bad at it, and so I had to adapt my attitude, leading into a more casual experience and the resulting distance to the game.

If I remember correctly and I never did it myself, so please be careful.

He used KVM with qemu and there you can configure a pci through put and he would run the Linux over integrated graphics of the CPU.
