Does Leaverbuster get you permanently banned?

Long story short my account has just come off a 14 day suspension due to https://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/player-behavior-moderation/RheHNNZN-account-compromised-and-suspended

I have no clue how the leaverbuster system works, but will leaving a game due to afk cause an account coming off a 14day suspension to get permanently banned? I'm not asking so I can exploit the system, I just want to find out how delicate I need to be to avoid getting a permanent ban.

LeaverBuster is on a seperate system from IFS. They got rid of bans/suspensions for leaving years ago.

So the only way an account will get banned from coming off a 14day suspension is to display negative behaviour from chat or feeding?

The leaver buster system is simple, but also complex.

It is actually 2 systems in one. The first system is a, grace buffer.

This buffer, builds up over matches you play and don't leave. It likely has a cap of 100.

The second part is where the leaver buster actually comes into play.

When you leave a match still in progress, it consumes your "grace" entirely.

Then if you continue to leave, after <x amount of times> the system puts you into a low priority queue because you were leaving to many games.

You then often have about 5 leaver busters, where you are forced to wait in the 20min low priority queue before the normal match queue kicks in. After you finish those 5 matches (hopefully without leaving again), the leaver busters are removed.

If you get kicked from a ranked game due to afk, will it let you rejoin the match?
