After 10 years we still cannot report a troll in champ select?

Why is that?

because troll reports do literally nothing, the only thing rito cares about is people saying bad words.

Spending a minute on the Player Behavior boards seems to prove you wrong, fam.

Hi im 123 votes

I've literally been playing disco nunu and running it down 30%~ of my games, you can guess 3 times if I've ever been punished for it.

murchalvias23 votes

It's sad to hear you've ever done that in the first place, but honestly it's even more saddening to hear that you haven't been punished for it.

Hi im 122 votes

well ya know when someone pisses you off you could call em silver and get banned, or you could just run it down their lane and have nothing ever happen to you.

Personally I'd like to see a dodge and report option. If you report without the ability to dodge, you are still going to have to play with the guy.

That would be promoting dodges. They can't be like: "hey, dodging is bad, we punish it, but we also include functionalities exclusive to this forbidden action".

The game already promotes dodging.

One of the actual official guides for climbing the ladder is flat out dodging when you think you're ether stuck with a troll or you're auto filled.

I'd like to see the official guide that says "dodge if you're autofilled".

Are you sure this isn't just some random asshole?

murchalvias23 votes

I've never heard of this official guide he's talking about, but I have seen both Riot support and Rioters themselves encourage dodging.

DuskDaUmbreon1 votes

I've seen that in regards to obvious trolls, but never for autofill.

Linna Excel2 votes

Dodging is a valid strategy, which is why riot gives everyone a free dodge in ranked every day. Don't waste your time and likely lose a game while trying to put up with someone who is completely toxic. If you don't dodge, the chances of you losing the next game are high because you are still tilted from sticking it out.

I agree. Some people don't think you can spot a troll in champ select. I guess they've never had their champions banned by someone who then wants to play Nunu adc with smite and cleanse...

He's just trying a new tactic, stop being such a meta sheep trying to tell people how to play! Didn't you see? A challenger player did it! His name was uh...hold on let me pull up the file...Pornstar Zilean! See? Challenger! So stop complaining because people aren't playing the game YOUR way!

I feel like this is sarcasm but on the off chance it isn't...

I'm not telling anyone how to play, I just don't like trolls in my games. Where in my comment did I tell people how to play? If you're playing nunu adc, you should at least take summs that would benefit you lol. I'm one of the few supports who still try even with off meta picks, I even save my pick to try and complement the off meta adc. I love how you basically cited my exact example in your next comment too whilst being toxic to me for saying it lol. Maybe you're mad because this option would ruin your chance to troll games? In which case, YOU are the one who should stop complaining because this game isn't meant to be some sort of clown fiesta, it's supposed to be a moba.

Screenshots and reporting it on the website. Be careful.

"Griefers don't ever get banned"

So are you intentionally ignoring the hundreds of posts in the PB boards from people complaining they got banned for trolling, as well as the Nubrac thing? Or did you actually not see any of that?

LOL

This is what I was thinking about when reading this thread.

How do you know they are trolling?

Have they openly admitted it in chat? or Are they playing something off-meta in an unconventional role and you don't approve of and thus find to be "troll"?

Unless it is the former, there is never any 100% proof that someone is trolling.

There are many champions that work in roles they normally shouldn't, just because you don't like it, does not mean they are trolling.

And if it is the former, then you just submit a report ticket on the site, with a link to the match in question (assuming it goes through and someone doesn't dodge. If that is the case just report them for what they said and include their summoner name)

hey let me ban our adcs hover tell him to kill himself say fuck you all

he didnt say he was trolling

General Esdeath 5 votes

I think "off meta" and "inting" have lost their definitions.

"Off meta" would mean you're not playing the top champ, what you're thinking of is "non-viable", like AP Darius support with summoner 11 summoner 13 and rushing item 3089. And if you want to tell me that isn't trolling, well then I've got some beachfront property to sell to you in Montana.

They don't do anything about trolls in game what makes you think they would do anything about them in champ select? A week or two ago there was a int feeder on the boards making threads telling everyone that he was doing it, he made support tickets telling riot that he was doing it and still wasn't banned.

DuskDaUmbreon2 votes

"They don't do anything about trolls in game" and 101 other lies you can tell yourself while blatantly ignoring all the times it's happened.

The guy only got banned after he made several forum posts and support tickets admitting to inting every single game.

DuskDaUmbreon2 votes

Right...And we're going to ignore the hundreds of examples of trolls being banned on these very fucking boards?

Death by Glamour4 votes

Oh do show me examples of the trolls being banned.

DuskDaUmbreon2 votes

Ah, yes, let me just sit around and spend hours digging up threads that are at over -100 votes. That'll be easy and definitely not a waste of my time.

Go be observant. Go actually look at the PB boards.

Death by Glamour3 votes

Oh sorry i thought it would be as easy as saying something with having no evidence to back it up...

DuskDaUmbreon2 votes

Because this is a fucking internet argument and I'm not going to waste my morning digging for threads that are buried under shitposts for evidence you're going to ignore.

DuskDaUmbreon1 votes

Hey, fam, since I just found it, here you go, a thread where someone was banned for botting, which is a kind of trolling, I suppose.

Chaos Pixie4 votes

How about a report for when the angry person adds you just to call you reportable words?? xD.

MysticElephant3 votes

Why is that?

Just take a screenshot and report it to Customer Support, they have a section dedicated to it.

Juxin2 votes

They expect you to dodge...

Which is a punishable act btw, so you're just as in the wrong as they are basically.

DuskDaUmbreon2 votes

Dodging itself isn't punished. It's 3 LP and a few minutes of time to discourage you from doing it all the fucking time. And the time it takes for punishment tiers to reset is a fucking joke.

Calling it a punishment is kinda hard when it barely even qualifies as a slap on the wrist.

Why is that?

because "mah off-meta picks bro" nubrac tier shit can't exist if you have champ select report option and spoiler report there is a very loud 20% of the community that are actually just troll griefers and people take their "trying to win" spiel seriously. so now...suffering.

Nocturniya2 votes

Yeah seriously, I've had so many games with people intentionally banning other people's (perfectly fine and meta) picks, or instalocking with the intention of trying to steal someone else's lane because they don't want to play whatever role they got assigned.

Seems like a lot of recent queues either have someone spamming the n-word then leaving so they don't get reported, or someone decides they don't like their assigned role so they ban the champion selected by another player. Even if we don't get a way to dodge the troll, a report/ignore/blacklist feature would be nice. Then again, I would think that it would be really easy to review bad behavior that happened in champ select since there's very little content needed for review. Judicious use of bans for actual and false reports would likely improve behavior a lot. summoner 14

As someone who plays off meta champions, like Kalista as a support, I can't tell you how many games I lost because someone gave up because my choice in champion.
