On Wednesday afternoon the Riot gave its community a preliminary review Allowed ezports will work. Instead of conducting official competitions or league tournaments, Riot will partner with third parties to create competitions and events. But the developer still has it certain specific rules for race organizers, including that blood results must be turned off during the race.
Within Riot's official rules of competition for editors, there is a section about broadcasting the game. One of the points of exposure in this category is that the "Show blood" option in the game menu should be turned off. This doesn't change anything about the game except the fact that sparks explode in players when they are shot instead of blood.

Usually, for major tournaments, this method will have to be provided to viewers for each match. But if the contest is broadcasting different ideas, or using video from the first-person broadcast, then everyone in the broadcast will have to have the blood paralyzed again.
While at first sight blood may seem like a big deal, it can make a big difference to advertisers, who have content guidelines. Switching off during events can help make the game as exciting as a potential partner, as there will be no questionable content – except for a very large shooting range.
Aside from just the rules in the game's blood, Riot has a few other rules to broadcast as well. For example, it is a requirement for all broadcast tournaments to stop chatting and "protect against obscene, abusive, or otherwise suggestive, ghostly places." Riot also includes a list of prohibited types of advertising that include things like other sports, alcohol or tobacco products, gambling and guns.
As long as the contest organizers live within these rules, anyone can have one Allowed tournament While individuals and small competitions do not have to register with Riot at all, major events and organizers of international competitions will need to engage with developers for their events.
