Riot you need to add some human influence to your report system for intentional feeders

Because the whole "it's just a bad game" excuse really doesn't work.

This was what I dealt with in my latest game

Now, before you jump onto the "bad game train:, let's look at his match history and his pre-game lobby behavior. We said "you have tp" because he didn't have heal. He spoke in champ select, but said nothing on this. OK maybe he's going off meta? Game starts, he doesn't leash, he runs into the lane and our bot lane suffers a death. Leona said she's going to support Ugrot top (me) and Varus starts flaming, calling her all sorts of rude things (obviously trying to bait Leona into using vulgar language to get her banned), so when I tell Leona "Don't flame him, just ignore him" he begins flaming me. We lost, but we almost won, he just kept running down lanes and using his tp to the enemy base and dying.

Now let's look at his match history.

Hmm...all negative, all as Varus adc, all with ghost tp...now, let's not beat around the bush and pretend this is a bad player. A new player wouldn't start the game with :) and begin calling people "fat nerds in their mothers basement" when someone decides to play a non-meta strategy.

Riot, please add some live human judgment on cases like this. When the system picks up CONSTANT negative scores and deaths in the 10s, nearing 20s, let it trigger something for a person to watch it. I'll volunteer for it. I'm sure plenty would. We don't have to fear a tribunal 2.0, we can improve it to make it actually good! Don't try to tempt people with rewards, just leave it for people who want to make the community better.

I can hear it now, "but it would take too long!"

Look, I'd rather this person, or anyone who trolls, be banned 2 months later rather than never at all, because right now the system is banning few people because it just says "Oh this guy isn't inting, he's just really shit at the game. Nothing to see here!".

EDIT: Just found something I wanted to added before but couldn't find. The system works as I described, and the solid evidence is this YouTube channel of a guy running down mid in hours of games on different servers, without being banned. The system takes so long to ban an account that was power farmed via botting that just runs down mid.

Don't bother trying to get some1 to review games with int feeders, Riot is mentally stuck thinking their system is working, they will just say 'No matter how much some1 is ruining the game for you, if you start flaming him, ure harassing him and ruining the game for others just as bad.' And since he's avoiding trigger words he won't be banned, but you wil, if you flame the troll that is.

Very solid post about a problem this board loves to pretend doesn't exist.

But if it were something that only gets caught 2 months down the line, you would still be here complaining about the situation.

I believe people actually do review games. I don't know what their policies are or how the review happens but I know that in some instances, reds will watch replays as Tantram has stated he's watched replays of a person who claimed to intentionally feed and troll to see if he would get banned.

How do you even get a 21% winrate. I think manual reviews would actually be useful, or some sort of reintroduction of the tribunal system for Honor 5s and maybe 4s who get rewards based on judgement and participation. Things like these need to be stopped but since it's low elo no one bats an eye.
