Int Feeding Question

Fat Sac Zac··3 votes·1,795 views

I just started playing ranked for the first time ever.... but I have been playing very bad, also been using new heroes I never used before in ranked.. which isn't probably the smartest idea. But my question is , can I get banned for int feeding just for being bad at Ranked? Ive been coming into a lot of teammates that harass me after I die a few times and say I'm int feeding... then they start asking for other team for reports and try to get me banned. When I am not int feeding, just bad at the game.

If you're trying to not die and playing normally, you can't be banned. Teammates that harass you for being bad are irrelevant, their words mean jackshit. Just mute them. But saying you will feed is a huge no-no, because it can be taken for intentional.

ok I am really not effected much about what they say.

more worried about getting banned from the reports and they ask for reports from enemy team

Don't worry, invalid reports like those just lower a "credibility score" of sorts for the reporter, which makes their reports less likely to be paid attention to. Basically a practical application of punishment to the boy who cried wolf.

oh okay if this is true then that's good to hear! ty ...

wonder how they can tell if a report is invalid or not.. cause some games I went 0/8/4 or something like that lol

It's things like intentionally getting executed over and over (to towers for instance) outside of things like proxy Singed, dying extremely quickly within a short period of time after respawning each time repetitively, running into the enemy territory repeatedly to die quickly (as in too fast to be normal), etc.

oh okay if they cant detect all of this then I should be fine then. ty again

Asking for reports is bullying and reportable. Pretty sure. Funny how the tables turn.

Fat Sac Zac2 votes

so should I report the players asking for reports against me?

Gary B Enkelis1 votes

Absolutely. I will try to find Riot's statement. I can't find it. Can anybody help? I know it was posted about recently.

If you feel like it. It can be punished, but it's up to your judgement whether or not you feel they deserve it.

Straight up, looking through your match history, you should probably be banned for intentionally feeding.

1/13/1 as Riven with 21 CS in a 21 minute game is pretty clearly griefing your team. 0/19/1 as Kayle? Participating in 1 of your teams 33 kills, while being 19 of your teams 55 deaths. Dealing less damage to enemy champions than Leona while clearly being involved in many, MANY more fights is a pretty clear sign that you're intentionally feeding/trolling.

This isn't you being bad. You know that.

Fat Sac Zac3 votes

please tell me how you know this?

if you spent that much time looking it up youll see ive only played one game with riven ever. also no where in the rules says I have to be in EVERY team fight for it is int feeding. You clearly one of the salty kids in ranked that ruin the experience for new players. Gtfo

I wont be banned for int feeding I finally got a response from support.

nt tho, straight up

why would u evne consider going in ranked with first time riven? that alone says a lot about your intentions. GO PLAY NORMALS OR BOTS

  1. Why. In the world. Would you play ranked with a new champ? That's...not a smart move at all.
  2. You can't be banned for trying-and then dying. You can be banned for feeding. As long as you never said, "I'm feeding", or purposely did actions that showed you were clearly trying to die on purpose (running under an enemy tower, not doing anything while the enemy champ kills you, etc).
  3. If you're bad at ranked-then you should practice. Until you're good at ranked. If you feel like trying out a new champion-try it out in norms or bots. If you feel like it's a specific part of the game that you're suffering in (for me, that would be late-game), I would find guides and practice a lot in bots to get better. If you know that 'you have been playing bad', you should really think about how you can get better. That would be a whole lot better than still playing ranked with new champs and dying a lot.
  4. Think of others. When you lose a game-it's not just you that suffers. The people that play with you lose points-and they could have been demoted because of you.

My advice: No, you can't get banned for being bad. But you can practice to be 'less bad'.

you cant be banned for int feed if you are just playing bad. what you need to consider is not to play new champs in rank til you understand how to play them and the game. go to normals to learn new champs if you go into rank with a champ you dont know you might as well just ff @ 20 because chances are you are forcing your team to play a 4v5. you are setting your self up for failure. and ideally i would suggest dont play rank at all til you have 300 normal wins and 2 legit rune pages. dont have to be fancy with them these basic pages will work for all ad /ap champs.

AD: 9 flat ad reds/marks 9 flat armor yellows/seals 3 flat ad quints 9 flat magic resist blues AP: 9 flat magic pen reds/ 9 flat armor yellows/ 3 ap quints/ 9 flat mr blues with these two set ups your armor seals and mr blues only have to be bought once and can be used on both pages, then you just need the flat ad marks, flat ad quints flat magic pen marks and flat ap quints.

also dont play rank if you cant play at least 2 roles on a comfortable level. and say your main role is whatever you need to be able to play at least 2 champs on that role so you dont get banned or if you get a bad match up pick the better of the two champs. as your backup role similar situation. so lets say you are a "mid player" have your main mid laner and a back up and your secondary role be "support' and have 2 supports you can play ideally a poke/heal sustain support and a tanky cc engage support say something like Sona Leona or if your mid laner champ can be a secondary support like a Lux

i looked at your runes and masteries and you win rate in rank which is 27% in silver. your masteries for champs arent ideal and your runes you have arent great for the champs you are playing.

No you can't be banned.

Fat Sac Zac1 votes

are you sure?

Handy Sandy 1 votes

Yeah, as long as you don't say you're feeding or it doesn't look super obvious like you're just running down a lane into the turret it's not intentional. If you do get banned though you could send in a support ticket explaining the whole situation.

Fat Sac Zac1 votes

well one game I did say "keep harassing me and I will feed".

But I haven't int fed once since I played this game.. maybe I try a little less when I get rude teammates tho.

just a noob in ranked trying to get gud

You can always just mute and report.

Fat Sac Zac1 votes

I always report but I never get that pop up saying anything happens...

You're not intentionally feeding so I wouldn't worry about it.

Itankyou1 votes

As long as you don't say 'I'm feeding' there is no other way that an AUTOMATIC system can prove intention. As long as you don't do that you will never be banned even if it is truly 'intentional'. I can't measure what's in another person's brain. Only circumstantial evidence can be used, therefore, if you are passive aggressive all the time (and make it known to the chat) and reported for intentional feeding all the time, then it is likely you will be banned. Otherwise you are fine.

Gary B Enkelis1 votes

Uhhh. Maybe the system can track frequency and cause of death? Maybe the system has some algorithm like....

if player dies to tower and then player spawns and dies to tower then flag as suspicious? I don't know. I'm not smart.

If player has 0 CS and player has 100 deaths then flag as suspicious. I don't know.

Yeah maybe you're right it can't detect intention, but it can detect patterns and maybe the patterns are accurate. I dunno. Yeah maybe it's not perfect, I agree.

Itankyou1 votes

Ya it can predict patterns, but once you figure out the patterns (the real malicious trolls) then they are good to go and they will report you for being toxic towards them as you get toxic when u are frustrated. This makes the trolls happier and happier.

Gary B Enkelis1 votes

I'm having trouble imagining this. I mean I can imagine something but I don't know how realistic it is.

Itankyou1 votes

i.e. feed mid once, feed top once, feed bot once ---> play normally/semi-bad. Can't detect. Impossible.

Gary B Enkelis1 votes

How do you know their intent? How do you know they're not playing normal?

AdeBug1 votes

he said he did threaten to feed haha this is just a troll asking how far he can go on trolling without getting reported. first time riven in ranked... just wow

Totalwanabe1 votes

well if you have bad stat like 1-3/10-20/0-10 on most of your match you will end up getting punished because those are the stats of an intentional feeders if it happen less then 10% of your total match played no problem but if it's over 50% pray that the riot employee that review your case is very lenient.

AdeBug1 votes

try that stuff for normals first. imo they shouldn't let you select champs with low mastery level

Morality Coach1 votes

It sounds like you were feeding and trying to create an I'm innocent backstory here, no offense.

themachamp1 votes

Its league of legends...with enough reports you will be banned/restricted. Don't believe me? play with friends and have them report you after every single game...you will eventually get punished.....even if you said nothing (yes, we have tried and tested this....took 17 games of saying nothing for a 10 game chat restrict after I asked my friends to report me after every single game).

Just remind them that however terrible you are they have managed to end up in the exact same ELO bracket as you. :)
