A gold player I know is duoing with a Master player playing on a gold smurf account. He went straight from Gold IV to Plat, and I want to know if this is reportable or not.

Yeah its allowed. And now your boosted friend will get flamed to oblivion and ruin games for other players because he doesnt belong in plat. Yayyyy..... :(

Nope. Boosting via duo is allowed.

As long as he is actually playing his own games on his own account, it is allowed. At some point the master won't be able to compensate for weaker player and they both will stop climbing and the boosted player will never be able to keep the rank on his own.

I asked Riot support about this;

To paraphrase them, they are ok with playing with friends. But they aren't ok with boosting.

So it depends on the intention of duoing together. If it's to artificially inflate someone's rank, then it's not ok.
