[GAMER2GO Newsroom]

Riot's Worlds patch adjusts pro staples, trims Hextech Rocketbelt and changes replay access while adding more old champions to Classic.

The replay lock makes sense from a security angle, but it is still a big blow to anyone who used replays for coaching or review. Riot seems happy to trade convenience for control here, and I can already see the ecosystem around analysis tools getting thinner. For a Worlds patch, that is a pretty heavy systems change to sneak in alongside balance work.

And somehow the people most affected are not the cheaters, it is the players trying to study matchups. I get why Riot is doing it, but this feels like one of those changes where the honest users lose a feature because the bad actors found a new toy. The client replay only fix is doing a lot of heavy lifting here.
