You should never have a player you reported in a previous game, on your team again

Im not really sure what system riot has in place to handle reports and making teams, but honestly this seems like it should be a no brainer.

If I report someone for something, I shouldn't have to worry about having them on my team again, let alone in the very next game.

I just got out of a game in which my teams support Alistair, after losing a single fight in bot lane, got in a temper tantrum with our adc Twitch, and decided he was going to afk and eventually troll for the rest of the game.

Naturally, after the match ends, I report Ali for Unsportsmanlike behavior, verbal abuse AND leaving game/afk. Not one but THREE justified reports from me against this player, and then I move on and queue for another match.

And what happens? This player is placed on my team IN THE VERY NEXT GAME! I decided to warn the other 3 players that this person is toxic and a troll, and then proceed to dodge the game, because I have no interest in spending another 20-40 minutes with this player, and now im the one that gets punished. Now im the one that has to sit here twiddling my thumbs waiting to get to queue for another match, because this current system has this serious flaw in it.

Riot, please fix this. I should NEVER have to deal with a known toxic player, that I have reported in a prior game, on my team again.

That is the worst, Seen this happen a few times and it is never fun. 5 min ban or insta GG, no one situation.

!00% agree. I thinking blocking them might lower your chances, not 100% sure about that.

Entitlement is just setting yourself up for disappointment and frustration. In general it's best to try not to feel entitled.

In this specific case, that feature would be abused to skew matchmaking, especially in high elo. Also, learn to mute. It helps.

easy way to fix both issues. only do it for low mmr. "bronze to gold" and bring back "unskilled player" reports that dont actually ban you.

What about the Qtpie with DoToT situation, 6 continuous games with them.

Welcome to what happened to me last night. I get a terrible support who ends up trolling and then afking, so I report after the game, wait 10 minutes cause I was still furious and needed to calm down, and queue up again... only to have that support in the SAME QUEUE..

it's stupid that riot has a system designed to try and clean up it's game, yet will actively put it's players in these situations where you are rather FORCED to take. if you dodge you have to wait 5-6 minutes (or more) but if you stay, you'll lose 17-21 lp and 20-40 minutes in a toxic sesspool.

Riot needs to pull their heads out of their asses on this.

better solution, you should just not be able to see peoples summoners names anymore, in champ select its summoner 1-5, then after champ select you only see their champions name.

Wait a couple if minutes before queueing again. I always do when I have had a troll on my team. Usually sets them up with someone else.

This is an awesome solution, but there is a problem that many people would just randomly ban people who do bad in a game, which would eventually stack up and increase que times. Also, it would skewer riot's instant feedback system because of the amount of false bans.
