Riot Vows to Combat “Feeders” in Wild Rift

in League of Legends
April 2, 2021
  • Riot Games has announced its intentions to work against win trading in Wild Rift
  • The company will actively look for so-called “feeders” and punish them accordingly
  • Riot promises to be careful not to punish innocent players

With esports popularization, all forms of cheating and illegal practices in gaming are also on the rise. Riot Games are taking action to prevent those in their own games as much as possible. 

Riot’s Strict Measures against Win Trading

On April 1, Riot Games promised to fight win trading or, as it’s commonly called, “feeding” in their mobile title League of Legends: Wild Rift. The game company emphasized that this isn’t an April fool’s joke. 

📢PSA: This is no April Fool’s.
We’re taking action on win trading and match fixing.

Riot reminded that feeding is an offense and may yield a ban or other disciplinary actions. 

Feeding is a form of win trading where people will play on two opposing teams, and one will deliberately let his team lose to give his partner a boost. It was a problem with the classic League of Legends and has instantly transferred to Wild Rift. Feeding is especially effective in the upper ranks where there are fewer players, and it’s easier to get two people in the same lobby but on different teams. 

Among Riot’s measures against win trading ban on frequent offenses and week-long bans for less regular “feeders.” Riot will also strip perpetrators of all their season one rewards and reset their ranks to Iron 4. 

The Game Company’s Future Visions for Wild Rift

These actions on Riot’s side are to be expected: League of Legends: Wild Rift has been out for less than a year and yet is steadily growing as an esports. Several tournaments have already been held, and more have been announced, like 2021 The League of Legends: Wild Rift SEA Icon Series Hong Kong: Summer Season by Mox.  Other larger sports and esports events will also feature Wild Rift, like the ELS Premiership and the SEA Games. Moreover, a World Championship is reportedly already in the works. 

 With all that in mind, it is clear that Riot is aiming to make Wild Rift a “cleaner” game by reducing feeding, cheating, and improving the game features. 

The game company concluded with a promise to be careful with the ban criteria as not to punish any innocent players. 

Riot hasn’t been the only party working against offenses in esports. Police forces around the world have also been playing an active role in fighting cheating and stopping illegal gambling.
