I've replied to these concerns in bug 46961.

The regression is not in Wine. The regression is because League of Legends
changed. This happened back in July 2018 or so (I don't remember exactly). It
added an invasive anti-cheat engine. This engine was eventually sufficiently
reverse-engineered by Andrew Wesie, who figured out how to successfully run it
under Windows XP. However, he did not figure out how to successfully run it
under Windows Vista or higher.

To be clear, that patch does not claim that it fixes League of Legends in
Vista+. It fixes *one* of the bugs affecting the anticheat engine in Vista+.
But there are others, not all of which have been diagnosed yet.

Debug it? :D

Nobody has claimed that the patches existing work with Windows 7, so I'm not
sure why you say there's "wrong information".
