Can I get unbanned?

Hello, I wanted to know if there's a way to get my account unbanned, after being banned for toxicity? Yes, this just sounds crazy and immature. I'm not asking you guys to hear some random excuse as to why I was "tilted" from that game, but a way we can compromise together to having me back on the rift. I do have a tendency to rage, if there's an initiator and in both games that were used to justify my permaban, I wasn't the one who initiated harassing. If anything, can we perhaps perma- mute me instead?

Unfortunately for you, reacting to toxicity with your own toxicity is still being toxic. Riot expects us not to fight fire with fire in-game.

You can always contact Player Support, but unless the punishment was given in error, it will not be overturned period. There is no buying it back or anything like that. It's gone.

Unless you use some zero tolerance phrases (hate speech, encouraging suicide, etc.), you are given 3+ punishments before receiving a permanent ban, with each one serving you as a warning that your behavior is not acceptable. You chose to ignore those warnings and continue showing unacceptable behavior in your games.

I wasn't the one who initiated harassing

Also, the whole "they started it" argument does not work here. Harassment of any kind is not acceptable. If you start harassing another player, you are subject to punishment. If someone else starts harassing you first, you should mute them instead of harassing them back.

Riot doesn't unban accounts, so you're out of luck. To get you back on the Rift though, you can always create a new account.
