Is this reportable?

Is this twitch's behavior reportable? He doesn't want to end the game and so he sits back on purpose, pings us to back off turret, and says "try harder ez" because he wasn't going to help since he didn't want to end the game on purpose. We almost lost by the way because the enemy killed me and kennen and started pushing down and almost taking our nexus because of the twitch being cocky and not wanting to end.

What happened in game I was playing arams and there was a gold twitch on my team. The game went well and we were winning but all of a sudden towards the end, we killed the whole enemy team. There was 3 who were going to revive in 10 seconds but we had plenty of time to take down the nexus with the amount of fire power we had as me, kennen, and twitch. Me and kennen were hitting the nexus turrets when suddenly twitch sits in the back pinging us to back off and says "try harder ez". Me and kennen die as the enemy resurrect. Me and kennen almost taking down the nexus. But we could have taken it if twitch actually cooperated. But he was being annoying pinging us to back off and telling us to try harder as if we aren't supposed to try to win in aram? I mean, i want to win, so why does someone have to give me an ugly attitude for wanting to win? Of course im gonna attack the tower, why you gotta sit back ping me and try to make me feel bad for doing so? It's the goal of the game.

The general answer is: Yes, you can report it as "Griefing" or submit a ticket with the games replay. The actual answer: Honestly, as long as he does not type anything actually offensive in chat, he is free to do whatever he wants to do, as that's Riot's policy these days - "Just be kind to the special snowflakes, because they're delicate to bad words, the gameplay doesn't really matter, it will not help us sell more skins."

So yeah, you may actually try to do anything about, but that will only leave you exhausted and will accomplish nothing.

EDIT: Yo, downvoters, why are you booing me? I'm right [zombie-brand-mindblown]

You can try. I wouldn't pin my hopes on him being punished though.

Well toxicity can be super annoying in games, a lot of people are bothered by it and it ruins their fun. There are complains about toxicity on this board on a daily basis. (although you can argue there are complains about -everything- on a daily basis) So, since it bothers people and is super easy to detect automatically, why not have a punishment system in place ?

Besides, you know to really be toxic to the point of being a bit "special" yourself to get banned, so I wouldn't say the system is unfair. I had bouts of toxicity myself, but I've never gotten more than a chat restriction, and that was when I was -really- angry.

And actually, perhaps it does -not- require me to open a support ticket. But I just want to be sure it'll be at least looked at.

And I should have said support people say they can't disclose whether someone was punished or not, for "privacy reasons", but probably because they don't want people to know exactly what makes them punish someone, as it could be abused. I was still glad I got that answer because apparently many people report trolling or inting via a support ticket only to be told the person just had a "bad game".
