Introduction
Schizophrenia #Vibe
Hello! My name is Vaynged, and I am a Vayne/Singed main on the EUW server. I’m writing on behalf of myself and 10 other Vayne players, many of whom are extremely credible and knowledgeable about Vayne.
The topic of this document is the player currently going by the alias LadicusVibe in competitive play and on LolPros, using the account schizophrenia #Vibe, which currently holds the rank 7 spot in EUW Ranked SoloQ.
Myself and the Vayne players I’m writing on behalf of are either quite certain, or beyond certain, that this player has been using external assistance for years: in other words, cheating. I invite the reader to follow along the evidence trails and the collection of red flags that I’m about to present.
Page 2
It’s your challenge, by the end of this document and the videos within it, to decide
between cheating occurring or an inhumanly rare level of talent.
Cheating and Cheaters
First, I’d like to implore you to expand your perception of scripters and cheaters in
League of Legends. Most scripters, especially before Vanguard, were extremely easy to
spot. They were blatant about it, relying entirely on forcing fights and keeping their
scripts running at all times to maximize gameplay output.
The truth is, sneaky scripters, the ones who use their illegal tools sparingly and
intelligently, are far less noticeable and much harder to detect. They know exactly when
and in which games the assistance is necessary, and how much to use it to maintain
plausible deniability.
This long-standing paradigm of bad, blatant scripters in League has led many players,
even in high elo, to become ignorant and complacent. They would never assume that
someone who can perfectly emulate a highly skilled player could actually be scripting.
There’s always a reason people cheat in games. It can be anyone. For example:
- Schmooey in Guitar Hero - went undiscovered for years, was genuinely skilled
even without cheating, and early speculators were ridiculed until experts exposed
him.
- Elon Musk - seemingly had nothing to gain from cheating and being boosted in
Path of Exile 2, other than satisfying his ego. Exposed by experts in the game.
- Dream - already a successful, respected speedrunner. Cheated, acted innocent
throughout, and was later exposed by speedrunning experts.
- Cloutiful in OSU! - successful, respected, and previously streamed legitimately.
He tried livestreaming his cheated runs too, even joking I’m cheating. to make it seem like he wasn’t serious (why would a cheater say that?).
Good cheaters can be extremely smart, sneaky, and calculated in how, when, and how much they use their cheats - often enough to fool almost everyone.
To quote one of the most credible gaming cheat investigators, Karl Jobst:
“Having talent makes people feel entitled. ... Having talent and deep knowledge of the game makes you a better cheater. You know what tools to use and how to hide your edits. You understand what does and doesn’t make sense - what is and isn’t possible, and what’s believable. When top players cheat, it’s almost always detected by other top players who look much deeper than normal players might.”
Current State of Advanced Scripts in LoL
While the introduction of Vanguard was largely a success and the number of scripters has dropped dramatically, it’s still possible to bypass it. The scripts capable of doing so are well-made and highly customizable, far more than most people would expect, and the best, private versions have been adjusted to look extremely human-like.
Through intermediaries, I’ve been in contact with scripters and script developers. I’ve obtained videos and examples of highly versatile, customizable scripts that can bypass Vanguard. I’ve also received video evidence and technical blueprints showing how Vanguard can be bypassed, but I unfortunately cannot share those due to confidentiality requirements.
This video shows a scripter in Arena using a toggleable function that automatically fights for the player, demonstrating expert kiting, spacing, and evading:

Even without intermediaries or direct contact, anyone can dig around online and find forums dedicated to cheats and LoL scripts - many of which claim to bypass Vanguard, and are endorsed by the community’s own reputation systems on those forums.
For example: www.elitepvpers.com.
(Disclaimer: I do not condone cheating in League of Legends or any other game. You should never purchase or use anything from there.)

This is an example of a script called Zenbot. It appears there’s a private, more exclusive, and undetected version of it with a Vanguard bypass. As seen from the frequent thread updates, these scripts are constantly being improved with extremely precise and customizable options.
Anyone looking through these examples will quickly realize that scripts in League of Legends can be made to look nearly undetectable, especially when used sparingly
Page 6
and strategically by a skilled player. Over time, they can be customized to perfectly emulate a top-tier human player.
Please keep Zenbot in mind - it will make a reappearance later in this document.
Accusers - Concerned Citizens
I’d like to introduce the group of players who are all in agreement regarding this accusation - about 10 Vayne players on EUW, all Masters+: Vaynged, 47, aaron, edificus, Ground, Reptile9, Sorest, vycka, liam1944, sevan, and ATUMOWY.
These Vayne players know the ins and outs of the champion and have a certain unexplainable intuition about her.
Some of the most credible among us include:
- Reptile9Lol – an ex-pro ADC of exceptional caliber, Challenger every season, and widely known for being one of the best Vayne players in the world. https://www.twitch.tv/reptile9lol
- 47 (formerly woahokaybuddy) – a multi-season Challenger Vayne main, one of the most recognized and competent Vayne content creators in League’s history. https://www.twitch.tv/4t7vn
https://x.com/4T7VN
- Liam1944 – for years, the highest-ranked Vayne Top in EUW, likely in the top 3 Vayne Top players in the world. https://x.com/liam_in_paris
- Sorest – a long-time Vayne Top OTP for over half a decade, consistently Grandmaster.
The reason other well-known or competent Vayne players aren’t part of this is simple: they either haven’t been in the loop, don’t care, or don’t have time for this.
Page 12
Collectively, these players have well over 20,000 hours of playtime on Vayne, a significant portion of which is at the highest levels of play. This makes us, as a group, relative experts in the field and on the topic of Vayne.
The Meta State and Recent History of Vayne
It’s important to set the scene for Vayne’s history, especially in the top lane, and her meta state over recent seasons.
Vayne Top had been strong, or outright broken, for years - from Season 11 up until the summer of Season 14. It was a viable counterpick for both non-Vayne mains and specialists in multiple roles. There were multiple players in Challenger every season, in every major region, playing either Vayne Top or Vayne ADC. For example:
- Liam1944 – Challenger Vayne Top on EUW, multiple seasons.
- Kryse – pro player who mained Vayne Top in high Challenger EUW during Season 13.
- Pandore – Vayne ADC OTP reaching Challenger every season.
- Srtty – two-tricked Vayne and Camille to reach Rank 1 NA in early Season 14.
- Hongcono – Challenger Vayne Top in Korea for years.
- A mysterious Korean Vayne Top player reaching rank 2 on the ladder.
- Kerberos – frequently played Vayne in high Challenger on EUW and NA.
- SaskioLol – long-time Vayne Top Challenger on NA.
… and many others.
Page 14
The point is, Vayne was strong enough, or even broken enough, that it was possible to reach high elo in every region and in both roles.
However, everything changed in mid–Season 14. Due to item adjustments, gameplay updates, and Vayne-specific nerfs, she went from being a strong pick to utterly unviable. Any good Vayne player can tell you this.
As a result:
- All the Korean Vayne players quit the game.
- Pandore mostly quit.
- Pro players like Kryze and Srtty stopped playing Vayne altogether.
- SaskioLol mostly quit.
- Kerberos dropped Vayne.
- The rest of the remaining Vayne Tops in Europe and Korea haven’t been able to reach Challenger, barely even Grandmaster.
This puts into perspective how hard Vayne was hit, especially in top lane. All the best Vayne players in the world either quit or dropped 500+ LP on average.
But then…
Page 15
A Player Named shiio
Getting acquainted
There was a player known by the alias shiio on platforms like lolpros, Twitch, and other social media channels. He was a low-Challenger player, primarily playing the ADC role with champions like Twitch, Vayne, and Xerath.
His rank as Grandmaster to Challenger in Seasons 13-14 in the ADC role is visible on the graphs found on his lolpros profile.
Page 16
However, after Vayne was significantly nerfed, shiio role-swapped to top lane and began one-tricking Vayne. By September of Season 14, he skyrocketed to 1200 LP Challenger. At this point, he became the only player in the world consistently reaching Challenger with Vayne in the top lane.
What caught my attention was that, despite never playing Vayne top before, he was consistently outperforming every other Vayne top player worldwide without much effort.
TL;DR IS AFTER THE SCREENSHOTS!

TL;DR (Summary)
The following screenshots can be summarized as evidence of the following key points:
- Alias: shiio on lolpros, Discord, and his account was schizophrenia #ESC.
- He also went by the names manipulativ and shiikyo.
- He appears to have a history of cheating in other games, which will be explored further.
- He generally avoids the limelight.
- The reputable, high-ELO ADC main and Vayne player Reptile9 is convinced that shiio was scripting.
There is also a video that was made about him before his Vayne top era, which can be found on YouTube, titled 1200 LP CHALL TWITCH ACCUSED OF SCRIPTING BUT IS HE? lets investigate
This video is long and includes a lot of irrelevant filler content, but I’ve cut out the most pertinent and suspicious clips.
https://youtu.be/JhpKr8kfJDM
To summarize: shiio was called out about a year ago due to some strange clips. While nothing conclusive was shown, it raised some red flags.
Note: Around this time, Wackaflcka linked the player’s Twitch account as esc_trptmn.
Page 24
Background check - annihilation
To fully understand the scope of this, we must trace events from September 2024 to October 2025. Let’s connect all the aliases this player has used and examine what comes up.
I recommend watching this video instead of sifting through all the screenshots - it covers everything and more through screen recordings:
https://youtu.be/c1TnywUHLZU
Page 25
Page 26
Page 27
Page 28
Page 29
TL;DR: Summary
- His aliases (all connected): shiio, esc_shiio, sadtryptamine, tryptamine, trptmn, shiiokyo, Vibe, and LadicusVibe
- Caught admitting to cheating in virtually every game he’s played
- Self-admitted scripting in League since 2021
- Confirmed scripting in 2023 in high Master, going undetected (matches the rank of Schizophrenia #ESC in Season 13)
How much more blatant can this possibly get?
It's likely that Reptile9 deleting his tweet accusing him of scripting (after backlash about Vanguard not being released yet) and the lack of a ban gave him a sense of confidence and invincibility. It honestly seems like he just doesn't care anymore.

Account selling
The account Schizophrenia #ESC went almost completely inactive between March and May of Season 15.
During that same time, a new Vayne top player suddenly surged toward Challenger on EUW with an insane winrate.
Page 31
Page 32
Page 33
Here’s where it gets interesting:
- No other Vayne top players in EUW have managed that level of success in the current meta - except for shiio / LadicusVibe
- This new account’s second-most played champion is Twitch, and the rune setup/build is identical to that of Schizophrenia #ESC - a unique setup none of the rest of us Master+ Vayne players used at the time
From the perspective of experienced EUW Vayne players, this is a clear signature. It looks like shiio was grinding that account while letting his main decay. I added Enmity #EUW, and he confirmed it.
Page 36
He later streamed his POV to me via Discord while playing on Enmity #EUW - using the Discord tag shiio/manipulativ. Unfortunately, I don’t have direct proof of this, but you’ll have to take me as a reliable narrator. I had no reason to lie back then - this was 5 months ago, and I had no intention of writing this document at the time.
in May, the Enmity #EUW account went inactive for 14 days - just before decay would demote it.
- It was renamed to BRR BRR PATAPIM #VAYNE
- The account was linked to a player known as Black on lolpros as recently as May 21st
- Black’s other accounts are all ADC and stuck in low Master
Page 37
Page 38
This is strong, circumstantial evidence of account selling by shiio/Vibe, and Black as the buyer. For reference, here’s Black’s Leaguepedia page.
As expected, once Black took over:
- The account tanked from Challenger to 100 LP Master in about 150 games
- After just 150 games, the account was performing just like Black's other low-Master-level profiles
- Today, it has over 1,200 games in Diamond, dropping as low as Diamond 4
📌 Note: Riot can confirm this account selling by checking hardware IDs or using internal data tools.
Page 39
Here’s a video segment showing the link between Enmity → BRR PATAPIM → Sleepy Hallow via LeagueOfGraphs.
https://youtu.be/lIwITqWmc1Y
At the same time that Enmity #EUW goes completely inactive, Schizophrenia #ESC becomes active again in May.
Page 40
I had a brief DM conversation with him in the League client. I asked him about the Enmity account, and he casually admitted to selling it for €1,000, saying it was just good money and that he didn’t care.
Unfortunately, I don’t have a screenshot (he unfriended me), but Riot can verify this by checking his messages on Schizophrenia #ESC.
To anyone familiar with the scene, this is crystal clear. I’m confident Riot has the tools to confirm every single claim made here.
Here is him den...ying any connection to the Enmity account. I encourage you to read between the lines - his response is clearly a forced denial. When Riot investigates and confirms the account sale, these conversations will show that he is an unreliable narrator in any future defense.

Clips
What's all this talk without some visual proof?
Let me preface this: the script he’s using is extremely advanced, subtle, and highly customizable. This player has mastered using it in a way that maintains plausible deniability. If he weren’t this careful, he would have been caught long ago.

Closing statement
To the Reader
Thank you for reading. We’ve compiled everything we’ve found about this player. Now it’s up to you to judge.
Is this guy just a mechanical prodigy with an unfortunate history of using shady aliases… or has he been cheating in League of Legends for the past 4 years?
Our collective conclusion: It is 99% likely that this player has used, and continues to use, unauthorized tools in League. The same likelihood applies to our claim that he also engaged in boosting and account selling in May.

To LadicusVibe
You didn’t need to fly this close to the sun and hit Rank 7.
You didn’t need to livestream your absurdly optimized, hidden setup.
No one was going to spend this much time digging into you... until you made it personal.
For a sneaky, smart scripter, you really are a bit silly with covering ur tracks.
Go fuck off.

To Riot
Please. Ban this player.
Look at this truckload of evidence.
And could it please be possible to maybe do something with Vayne? The only high-elo Vayne top in the entire world is a sneaky freakin’ scriptser. Pretty please?
