Contrary to previous expectations, when Riot Games feared that the bug-fixing process for Viego would take several more months, and this champion risked having to “sit on the sidelines” in professional tournaments until the end of this year. Recently, representatives from the LCK tournament organizers revealed information that the two champions Gwen and Viego are likely to be allowed for use in LCK Summer 2021.
In the case of Gwen, her absence from MSI 2021 was simply because she had just been released, so it is understandable that Gwen would appear in professional tournaments after the new patches of League of Legends have been fully updated. But Viego is different. As of now, the bug-fixing timeline for Viego is still ongoing and shows no signs of being completed by June – the time when the tournaments begin.
Therefore, while many fans are eagerly looking forward to seeing Viego in the professional arena, the news that this champion is about to be “unbanned” in LCK Summer 2021 has left many fans more concerned than excited.
Allowing a champion like Viego, who still has too many potential game-breaking bugs, to appear in a major tournament means that many negative situations could arise. Some opinions suggest that Riot Games should completely fix this champion’s bugs. Because when players ask: “When will Viego debut in tournaments?” it means “When will you fix all the bugs for him?” rather than urging Riot to allow this champion to be played despite his shortcomings.
