What are the punishments for abandoned matches.

I have been having bad luck with toxic teamates recently and last night I decided to abandon my ranked match because of a troll support. (I main bot). Since it wasn't my first offense I have to wait 20 minutes for each match. I had a couple nice matches today especially learning how OP jinx can be and I literally just got into a ranked match with some troll who decided to support tristana, then as the minions come he is pushing in the lane and killing all the cs. I just instantly left, I have two perma banned accounts and I must say I have anger issues so It honestly was the best choice for me instead of me flamming and letting the game ruin my whole day. I am most likely done playing for today but I am just curious as to what the punishment will be now.

It's really crappy to think that these trolls are getting the best of me and I am the one being punished, but that is another discussion.

  • I am already waiting 20 minutes for abandoning matches what is the punishment after that?

Since you left a ranked match, the result was that you got a severe LeaverBuster punishment. But doing this a few times and waiting for the low priority queue and playing the game normally for 5 games in a row without leaving will later lift your punishments. But, doing this continuously will result in a perma ban. See this website for more details from Riot support about LeaverBuster- https://support.riotgames.com/hc/en-us/articles/201752714-LeaverBuster-FAQ

But since you have these teammates trolling and being toxic, I suggest you to best ignore them and use the mute buttons, or do /mute all. After the game, I suggest you to report them using the Report System Feature. And lastly, if you don't like to deal with them, just mute them, ignore them, surrender at 20, and then report if you can. If you can't leave, don't leave (if you don't want your account to get perma banned again), and endure the pain and suffering you are going through. Hope you have fun again! And remember, using the mute button and report systems will help make you and everyone else have a great time at League of Legends. [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]
