Just a random question about reporting...

If a player is in a ranked game (NOT normals, ARAM, or Treeline) and decides to pick a champion that they've played only three or four times, do you think that player should be reported for assisting the enemy team or intentionally feeding if they feed and cost you the game?

IMO I don't think the "unskilled player" report fits this type of action because we're talking about a player who irresponsibly decides to pick a champion they've just recently purchased or started to use (ex. A new champion comes out and a player who buys said champ goes off to ranked instead of playing them in normals), compared to someone who just had a bad game or doesn't play with the same level of skill after gaining experience from a long history of playing. Players always have the option to start playing new champions against bots or in team builder, but by not doing so, they can ruin games for others.

What do you guys think?

Personally, I think the Player Behavior rules should be the same regardless of game-type. Therefore, I think it would be silly to make playing a champion for the first time punishable.

What if they pick a champion first time and do exceedingly well with it? It was still irresponsible, it's the first-time-playing and not the score so report them right?

What if they pick a champion they are very skilled with, but have a really bad match for whatever reason? If it's the score and not the first-time-playing that's the issue, then report them right?

Sorry, but the logic behind reporting them isn't solid. They can pick whatever they want.
