Discussion: Additional Mute/Block Function

I really like the mute button. Sometimes when you're playing you get someone who is incredibly toxic, to the point where ignoring them becomes a task all its own. Often times this player saps enough fun from the game to warrant a block.

Personally my mute/block list is a bit long to remember off the top of my head. I would really like to see an implementation that give players a color coded name (Yellow/Red) during champ select (if they are on your team) to indicate their status on your mute/block list. For me personally it would really help me in deciding to dodge some games rather than chance reliving a game with the fun-factor in the negatives.

I'm curious to see what comments people have about this idea, and the way such a change would affect the game given the current state of penalties for dodging in the first place. (Particularly for ranked)

I think that a system to show whether or not a player was already known to be toxic would be very useful. I'd appreciate knowing ahead of time whether or not i can expect a player to troll or make the game a bad experience because if i plan on spamming ranked for a period of time, it's more useful to me to just dodge, and try again in a few minutes so i only lose 5 or so minutes, instead of at least 20 min in a bad game.
