Can I Play Riot Games on Linux Even with Vanguard?
Asked by
TechieTurtle23
I'm thinking about making the switch to Linux for my next PC since I've lost trust in Windows. However, I understand that Riot Vanguard doesn't work on any Linux distribution. Is there a way to get around this, maybe by using a Windows virtual machine?
Answers
I get wanting to avoid Microsoft, but do you really trust Riot? Anyway, if you’re considering a virtual machine, just know that Vanguard is really good at detecting them since cheaters sometimes use that method too. If someone has a setup that works, they’re not likely to share it because they want to avoid cheaters using it and risking getting banned. A better bet might be dual-booting. You can install Linux on a second drive or partition your existing drive to run both systems. Just reboot and choose which OS to log into!

CuriousCat88: So, you think it’s better to buy two drives, one dedicated just for games with that kind of anti-cheat?
