[Anecdote] Instant Feedback is pretty amazing

I have a horror story of a game today. Basically, we get into a game, where I'm mid Diana and we have a duo bot consisting of Annie and Sivir.

The duo bot ends up going a combined 0/4 before 6 mins, so we tell them to play a bit safer. Of course, forgetting to wrap my remark in vubblewrap, the duo fly off the handle and start spewing.

The Sivir told me to kill myself (didn't phase me) and Annie began questioning "lol r u a girl, no wonder ur so shit" (I'm a male) and then devolved into "You're fat and an ugly chick no wonder ur so shit at the game" (logic, right?)

Ended up muting them for a few minutes, I've hardly spoken more than 5 lines to the two, and the suddenly I see the enemy start typing in all chat stuff like "wtf" and "lol Diana you're the one who's boosted"

So I unmute the duo and see them in all chat acting innocent and saying me and jungler were being toxic in teamchat, to report us for abuse, and that we were saying stuff like "this Malz (enemy jungler) is boosted" in teamchat.

At this point, while I have a good skin for internet shit, got on my nerves that I my character is being crimilized and because it's my word vs theirs, I potentially could be false reported. Even if that isn't the case, it's just a shit environment to be stuck in where your own teammates much rather demonize you for no gain. Remuted them and just played in a sullen silence.

Anyway, lost that game miserably (the duo held us hostage so we couldn't surrender at 20 either, fortunately the enemy ended quickly instead), reported the duo in post game lobby, took a 15 minute walk and came back to see that one of them had been punished via Instant Feedback.

So, at least thanks Riot for one good thing since the Tribunal has been taken down and we can see people who's been punished.

Tl;Dr: instant feedback made a very shit experience not sting so bad as justice was served.
