So i was playing a normal game to try something new in my mind when i got that gold player on my team He was playing so bad and always typing in chat and crying i had to mute him i was wondering why a gold player would appear in my game of normals while i am silver and be soo bad he was almost like inting with play style and mentallity of low bronze so after the match i did a small reserch on him and it seems he has a boosted account or bought as he is sitting at a 40% win rate in all matches and 11% in ranked and the champions he had good win rate on (which are in ranked how he got gold) he doesn't play anymore which only made me more suspicious and i wanted to know how can i report such accounts and players after a game ?? this was his champion in the match if that makes any diffrence.

Sorry. No one is better than anyone else in League. Anyone who bought an account is defeating the evil Riot forced matchmaking forcing them into silver.

Normals have different matchmaking than ranked, so it would not be unheard of to have people of different ranks.

Dont know but I put in a support ticket over this guy I ran into who was Diamond 4 solo queue but having below a 45% winrate in silver flex queue with horrible KDA.

There are some old threads on the boards that can help you decide whether or not an account was boosted. typically it begins with recent summoner spell placements being switched. Like where a player would typically place on D the booster would place it of F and so on. Also a sudden interest in one champion for the past 20 games and gaining success would be an indicator for a booster.

They could also be fresh Level 30 accounts playing strictly high rate champs.

Obviously these aren't tell-tale signs that an account is for sure 100% boosted. Riot would have more information on accounts such as last login location and frequency. So I wouldn't worry too much about it. Just report and if Riot suspects they're boosted they'll handle it.

Until then you can stalk their OP.GG profile for their activity. If the account hasn't seen a match in last for 4 days or so you can be assured that the account has been dealt with.

Getting drunk and feeding on your Diamond 1 accounts doesnt mean your boosted just drunk and having a good time.
