Edit: Kappa, obviously...

'Twas a reference to the movie Van Hellsing from 2004, hence the tags, as well as a play on whatever it was from the Book of Teemo - on its own implying it wasn't a serious statement - but I guess some people wouldn't know that.

I wouldn't worry about it cause its prob some kid who thinks hes big shit when in reality he'd just get his ass kicked Really and truly though he'd have to be the worlds biggest tryhard to go kill someone over a game thats potentially in another state/country

move on with life, he wont do anything, also an IP hardly pinpoints your house.

anyway if you want to be supercool, assuming you are in NA death threats are illegal, so you can technically call the cops.

Is this person coming for you?

Probably not, who knows!?

Should you get the police to subpoena his info so you can punish him to the full extent of the law while shedding light on the kind of shit that happens in this game?

YES!

Fucking do it bro!

I would spend money on a lawyer to make this happen.

All you need to do is report him in game. Idiots will say anything they need to get a reaction out of you.

You have a summoner name, Riot has the rest of the required info... Info the police can actually ask for. To be honest, I don't believe it's meant as a serious threat, but this kind of behaviour oversteps a line. Actually, it oversteps a lot of lines. I concur you should at least consider reporting that player to the police. Worst-case it'll give you some peace of mind, best-case the police will come knocking on their door... and that's probably a more efficient way to fix that kind of behaviour than a ban or chat restriction.

And what did you do to illicit this threat? Gotta love these kiddies.

Someone added me to friends list, and then proceeded to message me telling me that he'll come kill me.

I reported him through Riot's support and the copy and paste answer was something along these lines:

We've forwarded your screenshot to behavior team. but keep in mind we can't disclose what happens to his account.

If you ever feel your life is being threatened, please call your local authorities.

I had one of those too: I just told him to come on over. He could bring friends too if he wanted - I'd be ready for them. Said I'd bury them all in the hillside, where their bodies never would be found.

That person removed me from his list without saying another word. Never knew if he was serious, but I was.

Well I am from a certain way of life most don't live and I can tell you this. If someone warns you they are coming to do something 99 out of 100 they are doing nothing but blowing hot air. The really scary people don't tell you anything, they just show up. The bottom feeders and wise guy kids try to get a rise out of people I'm always careful abut I would not worry about this at all.

Meh, I wouldn't bet on him actually having your IP. Think about it. Some raging dude playing a game of League of Legends tells you he somehow found your IP. First thing that comes to mind is: 99% BS and 1% Actual talk. I don't think someone that's able to find your IP would be wasting his time playing League.
