ah, nice to see the new client is being made using Wine. I've been trying to get LoL to work using Wine to run it and Winetricks to get a few dependencies like d3dx9.dll, but haven't really gotten anywhere with installing.
I assume since it's Wine based, it'll be running what is essentially the Windows version of LoL wrapped in Wine so that it can be run on a Mac easily without the need to install Wine directly?

Do i Have to downlload wine, where can i? do i need a disk like bootcamp? posted a guide not too long ago on installing Wine. it's trickier to install compared to other Windows on Mac methods, but I think i did a decent job of explaining how to install it. I have currently not gotten LoL to work with this method, but it still runs many other programs leagueoflegendsmac.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=windowns&action=display&thread=1165&page=1as for if you need Wine to run iLoL when it comes out, probably not

It'll have a different launcher/patcher. The rest of the client will be the same. except this one will work and Riot won't have a reason to block it Wait, time out. If the contract with transgender, err transgaming is about using Wine, why did Riot have a reason to block a client that runs through Cider in the first place?

I'm confused. ilol had better fps than boompje for me, this client will have worse fps than both ilol and boompje? Because this one they're developing is a WINE client. The former ones were CIDER. And Cider is better than Wine apparently. Wait, time out. If the contract with transgender, err transgaming is about using Wine, why did Riot have a reason to block a client that runs through Cider in the first place? You got it the other way round. Transgaming client was CIDER.

wait, if the new client is using Wine, then does that mean faster loading times ?

^ Not necessarily, currently we don't expect slower, but doubt it will be much faster.

I just read in another thread that you're trying to get the new client to run at near bootcamp speeds (according to YS), but how is this possible when wine will be slower than the previous iLoL/Boompje?

The reason for this is that YS hasn't been able to test it yet..
So far, the FPS seems equal to the BE or Riot client, but without the freezes.

Yay! This really makes my day. I'm super excited for this new client. It's like Christmas all over again.
