LoL that seems same legal topic as moding games, which we know game publishers can not do anything against, if the mod is delivered without the binary and it does not circumvent DRM stuff

It is only an issue if something adds copyright protected material, but not if it changes something copyright protected by removing stuff or even by adding stuff that is not copyright protected.
