Rank Bug: Custom Matches Allow You To Climb Ladder

Hopefully Riot Games will fix this bugs in rank soon.

Successful achieving your dream rank ladder has always been the dream of many gamers in the League. Despite its hardness and the rotation of metas, many players are going for rank only. As Season 11 has just begun, players have been trying hard for their first 10 matches while these guys haven’t dropped a single sweat.

Recently, Vandiril found out about a group of players exploiting the game with software to transform custom matches into rank matches. The reason why Vandiril noticed it was due to the player achieved 57 wins in a row.

When diving deeper into this player’s profile, looking at his match history, he owns an incredible win-rate with Garen, and his matches only lasted for about 3 minutes. After accessing the replay of the game, it looked like the only thing that he had to do was buy some items then going straight for the Nexus.

After that, Vandiril found out that by using software that can exploit the League’s client. That software costs around 200$ USD, and it makes the Client understands that custom matches are actually Rank matches. Due to that reason, this guy only needs to use 10 accounts (including) into many many custom matches and gain free ELO.

At the moment, Riot hasn’t acknowledged this problem yet. Let’s see how Riot responds to this incident.
