Riot Officially Responds To Accusasions

Some serious allegations surfaced last week, and Riot Games isn’t taking them lightly. As soon as the claims came to light, Riot kicked off a full-on investigation.

Multiple internal teams, including Competitive Operations, Anti-Cheat, and Esports Rules & Compliance, are all hands on deck right now, trying to get to the bottom of things.

The Investigation Is Ongoing

Riot put out a statement saying they’re fully aware of the concerns and that they really appreciate everyone who’s come forward with info. But they’re also asking people to pump the brakes a bit when it comes to wild accusations.

Specifically, some are throwing around claims that Riot employees may have intentionally interfered with the integrity of the competition, and Riot’s saying that’s a huge deal.

Not just because it sounds bad, but because it can seriously damage the reputations of people who might have done nothing wrong.

So far, based on what Riot has looked into, they say there's no evidence pointing to any sort of wrongdoing or shady behavior by the Anti-Cheat team or anyone else involved.

And they’re being super clear about one thing: they’re going to take their time with this. No rushing. No bending to pressure from the outside. They want to do this the right.

They’ve promised to be thorough and fair, and they’re standing firm on letting the facts lead the way. So for now, all eyes are on Riot as we wait to see where this goes.
