Depends on the macro

That's actually to the best of my knowledge, some macros are allowed, some aren't, I'm not sure which.

Scripts to perform champion combos, no. That directly interferes with gameplay and gives an unfair advantage.

Binding individual spells or other keybindings to various mouse buttons is fine.

I feel like having a macro to paste pre-set text into the chat would be somewhere in a gray area. I generally wouldn't mess with this myself, just to be on the safe side.

^this. you can reprogram your keyboard to have any key perform AN (as in ONE SINGLE) action. you can do this through the ingame hotkey dialogue though, so i would not use your keyboard macros for that. if you have a multiple button mouse you can also bind keys to those buttons.

if you create macros which with one keystroke perform several actions in succession you are using a "third party software" to gain an advantage. riot can check that easy btw. and you will get a 14day suspension and all rewards revoked. on repeated offense after the initial ban you get perma'd.

Setting something like items to your mouse buttons, or binding something to say "warded" with a key press are fine.

Anything that performs a combo play for you automatically are not allowed, and you will get banned for using

I found this topic looking for a specific answer.

I want to make a macro that says something along the lines that I'm going to /ignore all due to most players being toxic if the game barely starts to head towards losing and then /ignore all... would this macro get me banned, do you think? I don't want to have to type it every game.
