I think serious cheaters are using secondary devices to cheat now. Like getting DMA card and paying a cheat provider. It's really crazy the lengths cheaters will go to. At that point it seems what is fun for them is more finding exploits and seeing how long they can go undetected like the very twisted version of modifying cars with how expensive it is.

I'm honestly tempted to get back into the game just to figure out how to cheat now. All the added anti-cheat stuff makes it a much more interesting challenge, and I do have the right skillset to tackle this. It would tie in nicely with some of my research projects too.
From a quick web query
There is a bot that spoofs what vanguard sees allegedly
There's also those in for the profit (winning competitions) and a fair amount of attention seeking on Twitch because a lot think better score = more viewers.
Yeah seen the streamers who got exposed on YouTube. Claiming it's all skill until they accidentally reveal their cheat overlay then start claiming they got hacked or its their roommate who messed with their PC.
Better score is more viewers, of course.
Did you try watching a silver stream? It's unbearable.
They do get crazy scores sometimes
Yeah silver has regular slaughterfests.
Seeing how popular those games are I think you would make more money by selling the cheat instead. Also, I would fully expect Riot to find some reason to just not pay you after you reported your exploit.
Unreported exploits are recurring income. Why would they help Riot patch the hole their money is coming through for a paycheck that might never actually see?
Are you guys seriously asking if bounty programs work or
I found a fatal flaw : it's an extremely invasive kernel-level anticheat.
I'll take my payment in euros, thanks.
I wonder how much the cheat makers that would definitely have info to sell to Riot already make annually selling their cheats... 🤔
Isn't this the same anticheat that a random dude found out that if you deleted a random line of code you can then run it in a virtual machine, basically making it obsolete?
They will refuse to pay the money
