While Refusing to Communicate may be a report option, no one has ever been banned because of it, specifically because there is a mute function. Even if you mute people, you can still communicate through pings.

Pretty sure muting someone also blocks their pings, too.

Newp. It blocks the audio of their emotes, but not pings.

Because if your team is full of assholes that you know you aren't going to be communicating with strategically with, you don't have to deal with them.

What if you mute them all thinking that, and then they actually try to communicate with you?

What if they try to make plays but you can't hear them because you were to quick on the mute button

Fair enough, but most of the time people who say toxic things in chat, literally just say toxic things in chat.

Anyways, I've never used it personally, even when someone is toxic because of the reason you stated, because I've never really had anyone that bad.

That's also what the ping system is for I believe.

There's no way to ping "ward here" There's also no way to "i'll split top, you guys go mid, i'll tp, when fight then go baron" by pinging

I was just playing devil's advocate really lol

That's a nice innovation, a 'ward here' ping good thought. There is a way to split top and communicate i do it all the time. You go top and start to split push, then ping your team to target the middle or bottom tower while you're splitting and they should, if they're not in wood 5, recognize what split pushing is and push aswell, an 'I'll tp' ping can be as simple as an omw ping, and if you want to go to baron just ping assist on the baron pit.
