LOL: controversy in the community because of a bug that could eliminate a team from the Worlds 2022

The worst that can happen to Riot Games when a World Cup in League of Legends is being played is to become the protagonist. However, the controversy with respect to the developer is a common evil in these Worlds 2022. All because of the large number of ‘bugs’ that have appeared in competitive games. The company not only had to disable Brianna from the tournament for a few days and saw how dangerous failures appeared in Gear or Darius, but now everything indicates that one of its programming errors has been directly responsible for causing the elimination of the elimination of one of the teams .

The most controversial play of the Worlds 2022

The team affected by this bug has been top eSports . In his confrontation before GAM eSports , which we do not hesitate to define how the best departure of the tournament, the Chinese team stayed just two blows to tear down the rival link. However, he ended up losing the confrontation after his rivals settled perfectly at the base completing an epic defense. This, however, could have been different if League of Legends had worked in the right way. At least, that is what the conscientious review of the departure made by the community in which it has been discovered that a defensive object of Lucian (Jackal) did not work .

In a first look at the video, we see how the definitive Arthur (Levi) seems to fulfill its function correctly. The inflicted damage is expected taking into account the health points and resistances of the rivals. The problem is that Lucian is equipped with the jaws of Malmortius . This object is not very common today, but among its benefits is the following passive: If you were to receive magical damage to reduce your life below 30%, first you want a shield that lasts five seconds and absorbs 150 (+168, 75% bonus ad) of magical damage. The failure is that, as we see, this shield does not appear at any time.

With 210 additional damage points, the Lucian shield should have reduced the lost health points by the definitive Arthur in 504. Something that simply does not happen inexplicably. Seeing the tight starting final and that Top Esports would only have needed that the shooter give a basic to the link (with active passive) Many players consider the bug responsible for altering the result of the confrontation. The victory on this map would have assumed that the Chinese team continued to have options to qualify, being able to compete against Rogue or Dr in a tiebreaker that seemed very likely to see what happened next.

Riot Games has not spoken with respect to the situation , but it seems irresolute. In addition to being practically impossible to determine whether I could hit the link due to the pressure exerted by SETT (Kiara) or what would have been the result of the following clashes in case Top Esports had not been eliminated. Rogue, for example, felt confident to play a ASUS Support that came out terribly badly and conditioned his confrontation against Dr. Maybe the rogues would have gone for something safer not to be in the quarterfinals. In this sense, the butterfly effect seems very clear.

Since the season began we asked ourselves what would happen when a ruling in a competitive game of League of Legends had truly notable effects on the future of the competitive season . Now the situation has taken place in a real stage, and they know how to see how Riot Games has not prepared the game a little more for the 2022 Worlds.
