    Well, it has been already unplayabe for months. Client works, but when a match starts, you cannot connect to the game. So you get an afk penalty, because their system sucks but the day before it was working fine.

      It works for me. I think you need to reinstall with latest proton ge and new wine prefix. I do remember it breaking for a while tho.

    The Steam Deck should be a call to action for devs to support Linux, not the other way around. Good thing I don’t play League of Legends or have any interest in Riot games. I can now tune them out the same way I would ignore macOS exclusive software. Neat!
