📌 Why this thread?
Lately, my friends have been asking which tools I use around LoL – whether it's for runes, builds, performance, or simply in-game awareness.
Since many helpful tools are falling under the radar (or people are afraid of bans), I created this complete, safe & legal overview. All listed tools are Riot-compliant (no scripts, no risk of bans).
➡️ Perfect for Ranked, ARAM, Clash & Coaching.

🛡️ 5. Important Info on Legality
✅ Yes – all tools listed here are 100% allowed and fall within Riot’s public policy (
) or official support pages.No scripts, no memory reading, no risk of bans – all tools are purely surface-level and advisory.
⚠️ Avoid anything that:
- clicks or moves for you
- automatically Flash+spell combos in milliseconds
- controls the camera automatically
- modifies in-game zoom
→ That’s scripting and will result in a permanent ban.
📦 Recommended Setup for Ranked
[✅] Porofessor.gg active (overlay + jungle timer + build)
[✅] Outplayed for replay capture
[✅] LoL+ app for mobile match control
[✅] Process Lasso (only if you're having performance issues)
Optional: Keep u.gg open in browser for current tier lists
