I did an experiment played about 20ish matches as Teemo.

I got reported in almost every single one for verbal abuse even though I literally didn't use chat in most of them.

I'm aware that I won't be punished for this. It's just amusing.

I had mained Teemo mid, and over a two day period I played him 6 games. In two of the games I had people so mad from champ select that they followed me around spamming laugh the entire 20 minutes and then reported me.

33% chance that Teemo pick will induce rage into your team.

100% of the time jungler will refuse to gank for you because "you picked teemo."

I had a Bard in one match that was following me around and ulting me while I was stealthed to show the enemy team where I was. He was telling them where I was, and where my shrooms were in all chat. Also he was flaming so hard it was pure comedy.

i think its down right fuuny that a single champ pick can instill so much hostility from the opposing team as well as your own. If that is truely the case and teemo is doing that in games then Riot has a problem. No champ, just by being picked, should instantly induce that kind of rage on either side.Roit needs to explore the option of rework (full scale more than Sion) and after that fails horribly admit that they should never have made him and promptly delete him from the game. IM not a teemo hater or nothing just tired of seeing so many ppl bitch about him from both sides of the fight.

I just find it funny that there is still so much Teemo hate even though there are dozens of champs now who are more toxic than him.

Sadly, there would be no plausible way for you to know you had been "reported in almost every game". Your story loses a lot of credibility after that.

When you get the popup that says verbal abuse blah blah your behavior isn't in line with league blah blah almost every match, you know.

A. It takes you getting reported a few times (i.e. in more than one game) to receive that notice, so claiming you had been receiving it every match does not really make your story any more credible. B. If you had been receiving these kinds of warnings on such a regular basis, your account would be audited. C. You are not the first person to come here saying "I almost never say anything in chat". Whether this is accurate or not remains undetermined. If you are consistently getting these kinds of warnings, maybe you need to look a bit more objectively at how you speak in game.

So you are here making claims that are not only unsupported, but in contradiction with Riot's standard operating procedures. How is anyone who knows how this system works supposed to believe you?

I'm aware my accounts have likely been audited by the auto feedback system. That is irrelevant because I won't be punished because I never say anything most of the time, and when I do, it is always either neutral or positive. There is a reason all of my accounts have the helping hands icon. I know how to behave.

I can't look more objectively at how I speak when I don't speak. You miss the point entirely. I'm being reported for playing Teemo, not for actual language. This is something that doesn't happen when I play Morgana and it makes me laugh.

I also have video proof of getting the popup a ton of times since I record my matches.

I must assure you I am not missing the point. I am explaining to you why your assertions that a system we are very familiar with has suddenly started operating differently in your specific case is not credible evidence to support your point.

You don't need to be reported in more than one game if multiple people report you....

It doesn't take multiple games. Every time someone says they report, I get the notice. It doesn't mean I get punished though.

I get that messag nearly every game.

Not even joking my chat ban increased when just playing teemo, I didn't even say a word and It just increased to like 58 games I couldn't use chat only 3 times and every 5 mins I could use chat again, I think it was a bug but weird...

You must not have been carrying cause I get honors when I play teeto

Nope, I'm pretty terrible at Teemo. I think I won like 20% of those matches. At most.

LeBraum James GG1 votes

I got raged at pretty hard earlier for going Teemo mid... The typical "WTF PLZ NOT TEEMO" and I carried so hard. I think I almost had more damage than the rest of my team combined. I think people get really stunned when they see a Teemo wrecking, not to mention tilted if on the enemy team. ("WTF YOU LOST TO TEEMO? WHAT A NUB GIT GUD GO PLAY BEGINNER BOTS KID.")

Oddly enough, the only time that I ever got the "offensive language" popup is when I played Singed like 5 games in a row. I didn't say a single word in those games. lol

TrulyBland1 votes

Well, Singed Q is pretty toxic by itself.

LoL, I've been reported as mid Zilean for "trolling" too, sometimes by either team and once with the excuse "for not staying dead." Usually though, it was "for ulting himself" when someone 2 screens away died. People make a lot of dumb false reports and they usually don't lead to anything.

I'm fine with teemo's. Usually they actually know what they are doing or are cheesing the enemy lvl 1, which I'm fine with. Sure I get the whole "aww cmon..." when i step on a shroom, but thats how the champ works.

The irony is when it is the Teemo main is telling you are the troll person that's making people lose when you have a squishy team that's losing in every lane vs. a Yi jungler. >_>
