If you're not caught up on the issue, here's a video explaining what happened: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d8Fw-zwDdbw

So all five of these players were banned for using a valid strategy that they were smart enough to come up with? How is that in any way fair? Sure, if I had gone up against them I would be frustrated, but I would give props to them for having such a brilliant mind to think of this. Actually, I probably wouldn't even be frustrated. I'd be laughing my ass off at the situation, though I could understand other people's frustrations.

I'm sorry but in a strategy game based on learning and adaptation to both the situation and the meta, players should not be banned for learning and adapting to a gamemode after a year or two prior to its release. This is downright ridiculous. No player, should ever, be punished for strategic thinking.

And before you say, "Well they were just banned for intentionally feeding by the automated system," no, one of them sent a ticket to Riot asking if it was a valid strategy, Riot replied, "Thank you for your feedback," and all that bs, then went through and banned them all by their own hand. I don't have the screenshot, but that's what a majority of the playerbase who are aware of the situation are saying.

I'm sorry but that's just unjust on Riot's end.

You're quite late. They had their ban reversed already.

I wouldnt really call holding people hostage in an endless game and basically forcing them to surrender a strategy, at least not one that should be allowed.

Pretty sure I heard that they got unbanned anyway, I wouldnt ban them but Id tell them not to do it again tbh
