Intentionally feeding in Ranked

I logged off league over an hour ago because of players intentionally walking down mid feeding over 60 kills in under 20 minutes...I was hoping I could log back in and happily see that these players are no longer playing in ranked ruining other peoples or possibly even my day again. These players should not be able to continue to troll peoples accounts, this is a huge issue I've run into in ranked time and time again and they get away with it because "it was one time in a month." So you're telling me they can feed over 60 kills in a game completely ruining other players days and its ok cause it was just once in a while. That is preposterous... This should not be allowed under any circumstance, not Oh well they didn't do it again for a while.

Agreed. It doesn't matter if it is 1 time or 10 times. Intentionally feeding or going out of your way to ensure your team loses is wrong. If it is one time, give them a warning so they know they are being watched and that it is not okay. If it happens again 2 months later? Ban them for a week. Scale up consequences as needed from there until they learn to be a decent human being and teammate.

I get tired of people who get their feelings hurt and then decide to throw the game away or flame you or do everything in their power to make the match hell for you and call you toxic because you told them something other than "gj". Asking someone to ward when they push out or to group up isn't toxic or unreasonable. Explaining (nicely) how doing 1 thing differently could have resulted in X instead of Y happening is not toxic. Grow up and learn to take some criticism people. It's one thing if someone is just being salty and calling you trash/feeder/something worse; it's another thing if they are offering valid advice - which you should probably already know and be doing in the first place. The fact they explain it to you without flaming you shows they want you to succeed and are trying to be helpful - responding with cries of "toxic", flaming every little mistake they make, intentionally screwing them over at every opportunity, and throwing the game harder are not excusable responses.

I posted this tldr not because I want sympathy or anything. I posted this to show how blind people can be to their teammates contributions and how horribly selfish and childish the responses of an ENTIRE TEAM can be to someone for speaking honestly but critically. Hopefully it gets more people to think about the TEAM first and less about making themselves look good. I sure didn't play the game perfectly, but everything I did was to give my TEAM the best possible chance to make good plays and have advantages.

I have had this same problem. They screwed over my placement matches because of that in flex. To be honest I hate that and its annoying. Riot needs to do something.

If it were possible, I wish people would be forced to take a time out anytime they do this, even as a first offense. I don't play many soloq games the last few seasons, and as a result only end up with a low amount of losses, but a good amount of them simply end up being losses forced on me. Had a top laner run down mid because he wasn't babysat by our jungler even though he got bottom ahead right at level 1~2... Before had an Ezreal run into the enemy base over and over even though we were winning, and so on. But because they don't do this often they weren't punished for it while the rest of the team had their time wasted.

Then there's those people where you check their match history and they have several losses back to back and just intentionally play bad if they didn't start off well because they convinced themselves their loss streak isn't going to be ending this game. While some of these are hard to prove, but most of the time they admit to intentionally playing worse, intentionally building poorly or state they are inting but nothing is done due to lack of frequency.
