@Riot, or @Anyone with knowledge of this

Is saying "gg ez" at the end of match a reportable thing? Just curious on this as I haven't seen any discussions on it. If you didn't say anything the whole game to the enemy team and then say "gg ez" after you win, is that ok? or is it filed under harassment or something? I mean, if you look at it, they're basically calling you a "noob" in a way..

Thanks for any answers!

It is punishable. Riot has clarified this numerous times. It is a sign of disrespect that many players and Riot frown upon. It doesn't bother me all that much but I can see why it is punishable. It is the equivalent of flipping off the opposing team in a sporting event after winning instead of shacking hands.

Copy pasted the following from the summoner's code

Enjoy Yourself, but not at Anyone Else's Expense

"Short is the joy that guilty pleasure brings." -Euripides

Making games is our business, so it should come as no surprise that we want you to have a lot of fun. We want you to get excited, to have tension-filled moments, and to celebrate your success. This doesn't mean that we're okay with you ruining anybody else's day.

Remember, taking a jab at your friend in the middle of the game is a lot different than making a glib remark at a complete stranger. Someone who is unfamiliar with what you consider playful may take your comment as an attack and react unfavorably. If two players on a team start fighting, good communication and teamwork become nearly impossible. Once communication breaks down, the likelihood of victory is drastically diminished. It isn't uncommon for simple, good natured teasing to spiral out of control into a loss, so do yourself a favor and don't run the risk of sabotaging your own success.
