Lately, the LCK Spring 2024 season has been taking a lot of damage. Those annoying breaks in the middle of your favourite games? Yes, it’s those annoying DDoS attacks’ fault.
The LCK Spring 2024 Season: Help from an Offline Server
But wait, the LCK isn’t going to take this lying down. They have a great plan. On March 13, 2024, Aiden Lee, who is the Secretary General of the LCK, shared some news. Lots of people play at LoL Park, which has a cool offline game server set up there. There is no one else on this computer, so it works alone. Stop with the DDoS tricks!
The LCK Spring 2024 Season: So why are you offline?
Aiden had a great idea for why they hadn’t thought of it before. It turns out that Korea has one of the best internet networks in the world. Going silent wasn’t the first thought that came to mind. Still, it’s better late than never, right?
The LCK Spring 2024 Season: Small Steps Towards Normal
The LCK isn’t done yet. Not at all, they’re just going one step at a time. First, they’re sticking to their regular time of pre-recorded shows. After that, they’ll switch to live shows without the crowd. Finally, things back to normal.
Taking Care of Things
The LCK isn’t just doing nothing. Keep an eye out for those sneaky DDoS attackers, especially those who are after local streams like Kim Min-kyo. Assured everyone, Aiden said that they will work with Riot Games to stop these cybercriminals.
How It All Began
Think about this: Tuesday, February 25, 2024. Two huge games are about to start. We were supposed to have a battle, but because of DDoS, we got stuck in a never-ending loop of technical checks. What a horror!
What Came Next
Games had to be moved around, teams had to play from home, and we had to watch games that had already been taped. Those annoying DDoS attacks wouldn’t stop, no matter how much was said.
What’s Next?
So, what’s the plan? This week, Week 6, all the games are pre-recorded. Don’t worry if you bought tickets for any of the affected games; you will get your money back in full.
DDoS 101
If you want to know what a DDoS attack is, it’s when a lot of computers hit a website or online service at once, sending too much traffic to it. As if someone were to hit the pause button every two seconds while you were playing your favourite game. This is not cool.
Quickly Put
That’s all there is to League of Legends. A few DDoS strikes won’t stop the VTBET LCK from having fun. They’re back in the game and ready to go with their new offline service and some cool moves. We hope those cyberterrorists get the message: stay away from our matches!
