I recently built a PC and installed Windows 10 on it because I primarily built it to play League of Legends (don't judge me). Aside from that, I've also found a couple ways to get my hands on other games as well. My other daily driver already Kubuntu installed onto it and I'd really like to use some distro on this desktop PC, but it's just not really practicable since all the games would be running from exe files or have anti-cheat (screw you League). I don't really see a way around this apart from using virtual Windows for the games within Linux, right?
Not all anticheat-games won't run on Linux. For example, I got Wuthering Waves running on Bazzite, although it uses kernel level anticheat. If a game does not have any anticheat software, it will probably run fine via Proton.
League of Legends used to run on Linux in the past, but I haven't checked how the situation nowadays is.
Yea it used to but it's been killed by Riot's new Vanguard anti-cheat system. It's also kernel level afaik, so it's officially impossible to play League on Linux now
