This also applies to Valorant. I know a lot of people look down on both games, but it's still unfortunate for Linux to lose access to such a popular game.

I thought this part was particularly interesting:

Half of anti-cheat is making sure the environment hasn't been tampered with, and this is extremely hard on Linux by design. Any backdoors we leave open for it are ones [cheat] developers will immediately leverage for cheats

    To be fair, I think the backdoors they're referring to would be ones meant to allow Linux users to play.

    But with Riot being owned by a Chinese company, I suspect there are plenty of backdoors to go around.
