League of Legends will launch a new rollback system to create a more fair and positive gaming environment for players

Riot Games announced that it will launch a new rollback system for League of Legends in 2025. This feature was successfully applied to Valorant last year and is expected to arouse positive responses in the League of Legends community.

The main goal of the rollback system is to solve the frustration of players caused by encountering cheaters, especially losing precious LP (ranking points) due to cheating by opponents in ranked matches. Riot Games hopes to create a more fair and positive gaming environment for players through this feature.

How the rollback system works

• LP refund: If the system detects a cheater in a game, the opponents of the cheater's team will receive an LP refund to recover the points lost due to cheating.

• Time Compensation: This mechanism not only restores LP, but also psychologically compensates players for the time and energy wasted by encountering cheaters.

Riot Games said that the system will be launched in the first quarter of 2025 and will be fully operational before the start of the second season. This will enable players to experience a fairer competitive experience in the new season.

For a long time, one of the biggest challenges faced by League of Legends players in ranked matches has been failures caused by cheaters, especially when encountering such problems during a losing streak. With the rollback system, players can avoid losing precious LP to cheaters, providing protection for all serious competitive players.

The introduction of this system marks an important step for Riot Games in maintaining game fairness and improving player satisfaction. For players, the ranking experience of "League of Legends" in 2025 will undoubtedly be more exciting.
