Just got a vayne jg who started with doran's shield at lv1, didn't make a single gank and went 1-9 while spamming "XD" in the chat BTW this was a ranked game not a normal The problem is i am losing LP bcs of a troll that doesn't even get banned or punished for what he did I am too tilted to say what riot should do about trolls . Those guys literally created a smurf acc where they troll until they get banned, except they don't get banned because riot isn't punishing them so they continue to troll players that try to climb ranked.

My question is, should trolling be bannable?or should i lose LP because someone on my team decides to toll ?

Trolling is bannable. Just riot dosent really know when someone is trolling and when someone has a bad game. And saying XD can be excused and starting with no jungle item can be excused by saying "there are no recommended jungle items for vayne so he probably missclicked"

Create a ticket. Simply reporting won't cut it.

They need to review outlandish claims like this. If it's true, then they need to look at the context(they have access to everything they need at least most of the time, they are the developers after all, so if they need more access they can design it so they'll have more) which they should always have, and then make a fair determination. Smite is now enforced in draft games(I should know because the game keeps putting my smite on the wrong slot(I don't consider flash mandatory and although I use it often I do not keep flash on the same slot every time I use it, this is where the game assumes too much) when this happens because I play a lot of fill). If the guy has been assigned jungle in at least one game already where nobody took a jungle item at level 1, that's an indicator that they aren't respecting how normal draft works and at the minimum should get a 2 week ban from playing draft games. It's not a difficult decision to make, and there's barely any evidence you need to deliver the punishment. And honorable and even normal players aren't going to give Riot such evidence, only the toxic ones are going to do that stuff. And if it's not true, they should punish the reporter for lying to them.

Anyone that knows the bare minimum about jungle will know it's not okay to do what you described. But I don't know what it'll take to get riot to actually review reports more often.

I think trolling is quite difficult to punish. Tested this out myself on a smurf a few years ago (five man queue with friends). I went 2/18 or something with Lulu, but didn't get banned even after one of them reported me. We also did a four man surrender in a ranked game because our support was being a dick or smth and we still didn't get banned. Were we assholes? Yes. Should that have been punished? Yes. Were we? No.

All the same, the report system does work. Just look at boards.

It is indeed bannable but it's not always easy to distinguish, especially since 95% of reports are handled by a bot that is constantly learning new things.

Just give us free dodge and less LP for next dodges, we can filter troll ourselves if you can't do that rito.
