Server side AC works well enough but as league demonstrates, it's not a silver bullet.

League has a much bigger problem with smurfs and toxic behaviour than it does cheaters to be fair. Adding kernel anticheat to it is strange. There's lots of account buying, sharing, win trading etc that is more prevalent and something vanguard cant fix, but Riot have never been good at focusing their efforts.

I don't know how it is now, but when I played league in the beta and for 4 years afterwards, I only ever saw 1 cheater.

Player toxicity was off the damn charts, but still not much of a cheating problem. Might be very different now though.

League itself isn't either.
