Welcome to Deceive v1.10.0. Lots of fixes and changes here, and we remove the overlay in favor of a new solution that shows you Deceive is active. Let's get into it.

New Active Indicator

One of the most common questions we get is "how do I know Deceive is working"? Because Deceive has no visual change for yourself, it's hard to see whether you're currently using Deceive and whether it is doing anything.

We previously attempted to solve this by using an overlay that sat on top of the League client and showed you Deceive's current status. While this worked decently, it unfortunately didn't have support for Legends of Runeterra or VALORANT.

Instead, we've created a new way to see whether Deceive is active: simply check your friends list! If Deceive is active, there'll be a new entry called Deceive Active! sitting on the top of your friends list.

Here's how it looks in various games:
Deceive_iDbtYqiP3N
ILHxV4YLkb
B7MYeAu8cg

If you want to know whether Deceive is running, simply check your sidebar! You can also check the message history to see exactly whether Deceive is enabled or not, as we'll send you a message if you enable/disable Deceive.

You don't have to worry about us spying on your messages either: the Deceive "friend" is completely virtual and only exists on your own computer.

Bugfixes

Courtesy of @aPinat, there's a bunch of bugfixes in this version:

  • Deceive will now work correctly for users that transfered servers in the past.
  • Deceive is now able to reconnect to chat if your connection drops.
  • Deceive now keeps track of a debug log, which we can use to help you if you encounter any issues.
  • Deceive will now automatically clean up after itself when the game closes, preventing "ghost" processes.

VALORANT/LoR Support

Support is not new, but for clarity sake I'm including this anyway. You can also use Deceive with LoR and VALORANT! To instruct Deceive to launch VALORANT or LoR instead of League, you will need to launch Deceive.exe with valorant or lor as argument respectively. The easiest way to do this is to create a shortcut, as seen in this gif:

To use Deceive with VALORANT, replace the lor in the gif above with valorant. Please note that if the shortcut path contains quotation marks, you will need to place lor/valorant outside the quotation marks: i.e. Deceive.exe" valorant instead of Deceive.exe valorant".

The Usual Disclaimer

Deceive should work properly if you have a normal League/LoR/VALORANT install. If you encounter any issues, please let me know on the Discord.

As always, Windows may complain about the executable coming from an untrusted source. You can mitigate this warning by pressing More Info, followed by Run Anyway. If you want to be completely sure that Deceive is safe, you can also download Visual Studio and compile from source yourself.
