Is there a known software to kick people offline from the league client?

i just experience (another) match where some edgy teammate that didnt get the champ they wanted threatened or gave a phrase like "3.5 minutes left (before the surrender vote can be cast) you better choose wisely" and after addressing the comment asking "hey (player) wanna run that last message by me again"? and around 7-10 seconds after typing that and sending it i get randomly disconnected from the match. Joining back and making a comment "this isnt the first time ive had someone do that to me, i think thats evidence" the player then went afk after making a few messed up comments after that. Just curious if anyone else experience edgelords like that with the same events occurring?

no.

you'd literally have to hack riot's servers to do that

While it is impossible to directly kick someone from the game, there are a couple things that have the same effect. Some years ago, people would invite other players into a skype call (you know this story is old because its about skype and not discord) and Skype's relative lack of security to DDOS (all they needed was your skype username, and for people who had the same username in skype and on league...).

In any case, you should send a ticket into support. Assuming your story is true, that kind of stuff is an immediate permanent ban.

There are many programs that are used to make DoS simpler for the average (and dumb) blackhat hacker. These programs are normally open-source such as LOIC, XOIC, and HULK.

It's relatively easy to (D)DoS, since it's simply just a matter of overwhelming the targeted network with more traffic than it can handle.

But you were NOT a victim of DoS. Sorry bud.

If you were, your entire network would be down. Phones, playstations, etc would not have internet connection, and you would have to manually restart your modem&router in order to refresh.

It was simply a coincidence that your client and league game shit itself. Nothing more.

No but there is a bug with some kind of caching where if your internet goes out it takes WAY FUCKING LONGER than your actual outage to reconnect .... like over 3-4 minutes for a 30 second blip while speedtest is showing 700mbps.
