Hello so as you have seen my subject question is there a way that i could for example in league of legends add myself blue essensce and things like that?

Hi Filip,

 

Fiddler acts as a MITM web proxy meaning that it will serve as a man-in-the-middle proxy that captures incoming and outgoing traffic through HTTP and HTTPS protocols. You could use it to mock server responses and see the result locally without having modified the server. You could also make custom requests to capture and inspect the generated traffic from browsers and any other applications that are using HTTP and HTTPS.

I am not aware of the technology stack used for the creation of League of Legends, but if it uses HTTPS, you could probably mock some of the responses for local testing. It won't change the operations made by the game server (unless you modify the requests and the server is OK with the modified content).

Thank you Nick for answering my question. From Filip

Something else I've wanted to add. It appears that League of Legends is most likely using a certificate pinning which means that the server expects a specific certificate to trust the client - a security setting made primarily to prevent MITM manipulations. If that is the case, then there is not much you could do with

fiddler is mainly a debugging and traffic inspection tool, not a magic cheat engine. it lets you see and modify network requests, which is useful for developers testing apps or learning how data flows. in games like league of legends, it won’t let you give yourself items, skins, or currency. riot’s servers validate everything important server-side, so any local changes get ignored or flagged. trying to use tools like this for cheating can also lead to bans pretty fast.
