Matched with someone I just reported for toxicity

Tundra Hunter··1 votes·2,150 views

So, I just played a ranked. <removed by moderation> We were ahead early, until unfortunately botlane died just before an infernal drake. But we were still in the game.

Meanwhile, our top (Trundle) was 0/3/0, which is fine by me, as we were ahead.

But then he started blaming the jungler, of course (me) for "not ganking". (Does it matter if I don't gank top if I give my team drakes, first tower, and 3k gold lead at 8 min in? -giving a kill mid and 3 kills bot, 1st ocean drake, first tower, etc ...)

So I just mute him and continue to play.

We lose the game as now it was just bad atmosphere and this guy just didn't intend to win, he insult me in the lobby. I report him for toxicity.

Next game, match-making put him in my team, and he banned my champion.

Can you please, send this guy an advertisement, or, at least, not put us in the same team as someone we report previous game?

EDIT: I received a message that someone's received a warning. I hope it's this guy =) Thanks.

I always wait 5 minutes before I queue up again for this reason

Good idea... I'll do that =)

That's not possible for match making reasons. It will greatly reduce the pool of players available to play with and make the queue time much longer.

Well, at least punish player like that, or put him in enemy team, not mine

...for extremely high elo, which is completely irrelevant to 90% of the people that play the game.

If the single digit percent of people that are getting punished for tox have higher queue times, good.

Ehh.. it affects those that aren't toxic and lower elo as well.

Ghost hours, lack of support role, multiple people reporting different pools of people that play around the same time = hell for queue times.

So restrict people's ability to do it if they send bogus reports. It shouldn't be that much of an impact to at least ensure you're not matched with that person for a single game or two.

Yea, the impact would certainly be less if the restriction was just for 30 mins. But anything more than that would start to have horrendous side effects.

Even if it was a restriction for a day, it'll get pretty bad.

I don't really think that's accurate. And if it is accurate, the tox problem is a hell of a lot worse than Riot has been letting on. I'd say most games don't have reports. If they do, that's a much larger and much more serious problem.

Most games don't have reports? I don't think I've played a single game of league of legends in the past month where someone wasn't asking for someone else to be reported in the post-game lobby for whatever reason. Im pretty sure most games have at least one person reporting someone for something, even if they may not say they are doing it. Would love to see RIOT stats on that figure though.

Hi Tundra Hunter!

I edited out the link from your post, as per the Board rule against Name & Shame. Calling out people in the manner you used creates a witch hunt which is not allowed.

If you have a problem with someone in game, then be sure to use the report function at the end of the game, or if someone continues to harass you out of game, then submit a Support Ticket.

If you have any questions about this moderation action, don't hesitate to reach out to the Boards Moderation Team via:

That happened to me in placements I was matched with a supp who tower dove at level 2, then flamed me for not dying with him, then fed 3 more times and started piling on with the mid who was his friend he joined with. So i got placed way below where I was last season because they both agreed that it was my fault somehow despite all scorecard evidence.
