I skipped chat restrictions and got a 14-day ban

Title; I get it, I was pretty toxic. However, 1 game and i get the boot for 2 weeks? I flamed a 0/7 tryn and a 2/8 ez because they clearly weren't doing their best in lane and got, quite frankly, trashed on. Why is the tier system there if you can just jump through half of it and get banned.

From Riot's support knowledgebase:

PUNISHMENTS GENERALLY FOLLOW A BASIC ESCALATION PATH:

  • First Offense: 10 Game Chat Restriction
  • Second Offense: 25 Game Chat Restriction
  • Third Offense: Two Week Suspension
  • Fourth Offense: Permanent Suspension

However, it is possible to skip to a Two Week or Permanent suspension based on the severity of the behavior in the game. Excessive negative behavior can result in a Two-Week or Permanent suspension at any time without having a chat restriction on the account.

The only way to skip directly to a 14-day suspension for chat related offences is by using zero-tolerance language such as racism, homophobia, or inciting self-harm (telling someone to harm or kill themselves.)

As KFCeytron linked in their comment, Riot explicitly states that this behavior will be punished more severely than regular negativity.

Well you probably told someone to kill themselves or used slurs. Those go straight to 14 day ban

We would need your chat logs in order to answer that question.
