Soft inting and alternate accounts seriously need to be addressed

Case in point, the well known Alistar player who only builds movement speed and intentionally feeds, but still acts like he's trying, in every single game. He has multiple permanently banned accounts, and multiple unbanned accounts.

I've had the misfortune of playing with him on two of his accounts today. Everyone in both games reported him for intentional feeding, and there are literally threads on Reddit where he is called out for it, but he's still somehow managed to behave this way in over 200 games this season. I would be extremely surprised if he doesn't have at least one report for intentional feeding in 90% of his 200 games.

All of these accounts should have been permanently banned long ago, and it's absurd that he can evade a ban and continue inting in hundreds of games. What the fuck is going on here?

EDIT: Just got this bullshit again, and this is the first thing they say when they join the lobby: https://i.imgur.com/yAdY5fm.jpg[] https://i.imgur.com/AmS10UR.jpg[]

So looking through your match history, if found the 'infamous' player.

My only question is: How do you define inting, deterministically. (Meaning, you can't just say: "Inting is intentionally losing"). What steps would one have to take, to verify that a player is inting?

You could look at the score? But he isn't doing paticularly horrible KDA-wise. Sure he has a lot of deaths, but he also has alot of assists and kills.

The damage? He consistently does an expected amount of damage for a support Alistar.

Doing role related things? He also often places a shit ton of vision.

The build? Nothing is inherently wrong with his build. You shouldn't get punished for not building the exact same items anyone else does.

And infact, over the last 110 games, he had a positive winrate?

So why do you say he's inting? Unless I have the totally wrong player (I'm talking about the 'Ohmwrecker Alistar'), there isn't any conclusive proof that he is actually trying to lose, right?

And if it's not possible to determine whether or not someone is inting, then how is Riot supposed to do so?

Soft inting is per definition not something you can detect. It's inting, that isn't detectable. So how do you expect 'soft inting' to be adressed in any way?

The player essentially admits to trolling in pre game lobby and people here are still doing the good old fashion "well....was he REALLY trolling though? I need to see a 10000 game sample before I can determine that!"

Amazing.

not sure if its the same guy but i had an alistar in november that built ga and stood in bot lane behind the turret avoiding doing anything and watched us lose. The account had a bunch of match history fileld with it as well, it's really mindblowing that the system doesn't see that an account has been spam reported for inting multiple games in a row and flag it and ban it immediately. Or at least send it to one of the player support people to review and manually ban it or something.

If he has multiple permabanned accounts, that means Riot just hasn't gotten to the rest yet. Unless he ints on all those accounts on a popular stream linking them together, as Tyler1 did to earn himself an ID ban, Riot has to individually evaluate and escalate each instance.

Yeah Rito really needs to step up their anti-trolling game.
