Banned for being new at the game and making a mistake

So about a year ago I was unfairly banned in my opinion, I was new at the game and I just hit gold 5. My friends were mad because previous to this I was bronze for about a year until I learned a new champ pool. It was almost a race to get to gold. We all hit silver 5 at the same time but I was able to rank up the fasted and hit gold first. This was only my 1st year playing but I was playing on and off so I didnt know much about the meta. We decided to play a flex game and they told me to play AP draven as a troll and they said it was the new meta and that AD items got nerfed so all AP items were better. Of course I listened to them. After the game they decided to report me via support ticket and told me out toxic I was and I inted. Riot decided to ban me and I didnt try appealing it until now. Of course I got denied. The user who reported me via support ticket even apoligized since then and opened a ticket saying that he lied and that he did infact tell me the meta was AP draven. He has not got a reply to that ticket yet but Im going to assume its denied.

so.... you're going to play the ignorance and (i'm sorry) stupidity card that after at least one year of playing, you did not read that there is ZERO draven ability that scale with AP? Also, was it a full pre-made 5 flex? How do you know your friend is the only one who reported you?

You're pulling the ignorance stupidity card and go into that game "as a troll". Even if new update gives AP 10000x more damage than AD, Draven has ZERO ap damage...

You don't get banned for one inting game, you get a 14 day ban unless you already had q 14 day ban.

It kinda sounds weird.

Firstly, "trolling" like building unfamiliar/unfitting items, is not a banable offense. For all odds people could genuinely try out new builds, and that's fine to do.

Secondly, intentional feeding is, as it says; INTENTIONAL feeding. If you're having a bad game, you won't get banned for inting.

Thirdly, it would be kinda useful to have a chatlog to show. Since you explained they reported you for Toxic behavior, it could provide more context.

If you can read your abilities, I feel it is your own fault. If he had ANY AP scaling abilities you would have been fine. If you build a champ with something they actually can't benefit from, you will be punished. That list is actually incredibly small and admittedly is only AD champs that have no ap scaling.

If it was from trolling, then I feel it is deserved punishment. If you didn't have a prior 14 day, I would be surprised by a perm for it though.

Be stupid, get banned.

Learn to read your abilities, and it won't happen again.
