I'm done with 4 mans

Alright, this has really gone too far. I've met so many 4 mans that are great, don't get me wrong, but there are those that are just complete trolls. The game I just played as Yi, our Kayle and Lucian just spammed their summoners whenever up. Lucian was the most toxic, and the rest of them made a few insults here and there. I'm usually fine with these games, I just let it go and ignore it. But not only do they flame and troll, they all decide to 4x report me, and even get a few people from the enemy team to agree to report me too. I'm pretty sure I won't be banned because I did not do anything wrong, but the Lucian was so sure I would get banned, I got kind of surprised. Can you really get banned that quickly if you are reported by a 4 man+? Also, is there some system where if you just false report / report for fun, your reports count less in whether the player gets banned or not? Thanks.

Also on this topic, I want my solo-q back. People weren't as bad, and I loved meeting new people and making friends. Now with Dynamic queue, I have to meet all these troll premades, and I don't even know anymore. It also takes so long to actually find a game with Dynamic, solo-q was quick and easy.

I guess this is sort of a rant, but it's just getting on my nerves.

I don't really see 4 mans ever but I do see a lot of parties of 3. Also the amount of reports per game doesn't matter.

I always manage to get stuck on a four man premade team or three premades and I've learned something....

The enemies premades come to win and work together and pretty much stick together like superglue when first couple of towers go down, while my premades are awful and we might actually win if they trolled instead of actually trying.

For example last night, they had Zed go top. I think it was Kat middle, Veigar bottom, and Anivia support. I don't even think he bought any support items. I was Diana jungle and I think I ended up 18-7, but we ended up losing obviously.

I mean I guess normals is where you break the meta with your buddies so I shouldn't complain.

Reports from teams should be ignored entirely.

Talk about a stupid hypocritical community. They whine about "it would exploited" for countless suggestions as to how to curb boosters and other abusers of the system, but the real abuse in things like this usually ignored.

I mean how many people have to come here and post stories like this???? It's gone from maybe 1 possibly every 3 months, to 2-3 every other day. Talk about toxic.

When you deal with those kind of toxic players, the only rational thing you can do is mute your entire team. That's what i do and i've noticed that i almost never go on tilt anymore. It sounds silly, but it works so much!.

If an enemy starts asking questions about ''your toxicity'' in all chat, its most likely because your team started complaining in /all chat in hope to get a reaction out of you, in that case, just say ''are they still bashing me? i've muted them a while ago'' and the enemy will understand.

It is possible to get chat restricted if you get reported too often because of their automated system, but if you send a support ticket, your punishment will probably be removed (if it ever gets to that point)

Reports do not lead directly to punishment. They lead to a review of the match for the player being reported. 9 reports are no different than 1 report, it just flags the match for review.

Once your account has a certain number of flagged matches associated with it, the system randomly selects some of those matches for review. Once reviewed, if you did nothing wrong in any of those matches, the reports are thrown out and those players future reports become less valuable.

The severity of the punishment is not based on severity of offense. It is a 4 strike system, where severity of the punishment is based on how many strikes you have accrued:

1st strike - 10 game chat ban 2nd strike - 25 game chat ban 3rd strike - 14 day full ban 4th strike - perma

There is an exception for hate speech, racial slurs, or extreme cases of toxicity, that will result in skipping and going straight to 3rd or 4th strike.
