Playing in an Intoxicated state should be punishable.

I didn't know where exactly to post this so i went with the PB since punishment fits this sub board the best.

Anyway. Players who go to a game, hard lose it for their team and think they get away by saying stuff like "I'm high" or "Sorry, had a beer too much" Should receive the punishment hammer. An Intoxicated state should NOT be allowed to serve as a greenlighted, validate excuse for ruining the game. The IFS system should be upped to recognize inchat confessions about being under substance while playing a game and deliver a temp-ban (But not a perma. Let's be reasonable, that'd be too much)

An intended limitation on decisionmaking for the sake of your own, selfish fun, not only in itself has already been made clear is not tolerated unless the whole team specifically approves to it, but the assumption that it serves as an excuse for it is bullshit. Your own fun is not the team's fun, and that has multiple times now caused great public stress and discussions which were ultimately shut down by rioters confirming that if the whole team doesn't agree to it, it isn't okay.

Toxication should not be an exception to that statement.

TL;DR playing drunk or high should be punishable by more than just a lost game.

I agree with OP. It’s not fair to the other people you are playing with. Sure the person being under the influence might be having fun, but it’s not fun for the people on your team that have to deal with your poor intended lack of decision making.

I for one enjoy playing league when on LSD. I dont play ranked games and usually only play on PBE now but I have a lot of fun doing it and like to understand how I react during different points of the trip. While my decision making goes down the drain, my execution goes up the roof. I can easily dodge things and my clicks per second double if not triple when sober.

The most important part is that I am having FUN. Im not stressing and just enjoying the visuals and gameplay.

Check this point of view out from a sports psycologist.

Okay... Congrats the only thing that comes from this is people stop actually typing that they are high/drunk.
