Rant: Instant-Feedback System is stupid.
tl;dr If you don't like someone, you disagree with someone, you don't like the champion they picked, you don't like a single play they made, or you're just having a bad day, you report people for nonsensical reasons and they get punished because it accumulates. Unless I guess they just don't use chat at all. But if using chat is punishable, then get rid of the stupid chat box. I've thus decided in all future games:
- If I see someone use chat other than to say "good job," I'm reporting them. Why? Because the stupid broken system is stupid and broken.
Triggered. This qualifies for chat restriction, while I literally see people saying "i hope you get cancer in real life and die." If the contents of these chat logs is too unbearable, Grow. Up.
Game 1 Context: (This is the only conceivably "toxic" one)
- At the time, an account with minimum number of champs to play ranked, no real viable supports and I got autofilled. I requested to swap for any other role and was denied, so I took Teemo support.
- First 30s of game: ADC uses Heal out of nowhere
- I ask the ADC to help when I engage, instead of just CSing and watching me 1v2
- I roam mid, gank mid. Talon dies and Annie has to recall, so I start shoving mid lane to tower, to a flurry of spam pings and inflammatory remarks from Talon and Singed.
- ADC joins in, flaming me because they died before I got back to bot lane.
- Singed decides to join back in the flaming because I picked Teemo support. (Specifically harassing for picking Teemo.)

Game 2 Context: The player who was assigned jungle had his one-trick jungle champ banned. So he took Teemo and came duo top with me (we had no jungle) and trolled my lane, including taking as much cs as possible from me and intentional feeding the enemy Garen. (At one point I respond to a "wait how did Garen get fed?") I managed to go 16/5 and carry for the win.
> Game 2 > cloμd: nobody flamed you pregame, you just insist on trolling regardless > cloμd: however, refusing to play the role you were assigned is bannable. so either leave top, or be reported. on that note, muted and > cloμd: enjoy > cloμd: just ff, teemo has been trolling since champ select and intentionally feeding all game > cloμd: teemo kicked me out of lane, so i am forced to farm jg > cloμd: i'm not* hardstuck > cloμd: lucian, please group > cloμd: we will lose if you keep splitting > cloμd: bc teemo kicked me out of top lane and int fed him > cloμd: so will you group or nah > cloμd: i'm carrying, so i think i do > cloμd: we need to group, not split > cloμd: teemo take blue
Game 3 Context: I honestly have no idea. I'm guessing it was someone harassing me based on champion choice or my decision to roam or anything. In case you great elo mongerers are unaware, "report ____" occurs probably in 99% of NA silver games, on at least one team. If your team isn't saying it, the enemy team is all-chatting you to report their "feeder." So in response to someone saying report me, likely among other harassment, I say well...2 lines of text.
> Game 3 > cloμd: lol that's not reportable, but harassment is bannable > cloμd: likewise, gl with it
