Yes, I know it's PreSeason and I know everyone is having fun with new things. That I do not care about. Play your AP Jax mid or Jungle Miss Fortune. My thing is in Ranked do people actually get punished for intentiionally feeding? Do people actually get punished?! It ruins the game for everyone and losing lane is one thing, you got out played, sure it happens but why ruin 4 other peoples experience and quit at 5minutes and troll?

Intentional feeders tend to be a problem with players that get easily angered.

Scenario 1: Your ally dies and you say nothing.

Possibility 1: Ally gets flustered and starts blaming the jungler, mid lane, ect ect. Possibility 2: Ally continues to feed, but tries to do his best. Possibility 3: Ally starts feeding on purpose to get attention.

Scenario 2: Your ally dies and you call him a retarded pos and tell him he should uninstall and leave.

Possibility 1: Ally flames back, loses interest in winning, starts trolling. Possibility 2: Ally mutes you and continues trying his best to win. Possibility 3: Ally was already going to feed even in scenario 1 and your reaction doesn't have any impact on the outcome.

I would say under scenario 2, his feeding is more or less justified by your lack of control. Now that doesn't make it right, but if someone calls you a bunch of names and acts like a child, you are less inclined to try and win.

Scenario 1 puts the choice in the ally player's hands. If he feeds during scenario 1 on purpose, he is solely at fault and he has no valid argument as to why he fed the enemy and became toxic himself.

In order to reduce the total amount of intentional feeders in YOUR game, you can take steps to avoid confrontations that might escalate into a feeling of righteous feeding, or revenge feeding. It's more logical to assume that by partaking in scenario 1, you can reduce the chances of an incident of feeding occurring by roughly half.

Accusing a player of intentionally feeding is one way to increase your chances of getting one on your team. Highlighting every mistake you see increases your chances of getting one on your team. Being a nice player may not reduce intentional feeding to 0, but it will certainly reduce the overall occurrence of said feeding in your games.

From what I've learned. Inters/trolls are hard to detect with Riot's system alone. Unless a Rioter reviews the game personally, the inter/troll will most likely not be punished. Solution to this is: Get video/picture for proof and send it to Riot through a ticket. If you flame a troll, Riot's system will look at the chatlogs and ban you because It can't detect inters as the player might be feeding unintentionally in the eyes of the system. There's also another way. If you could bait the troll/inter into typing in chat about how they are about to int for ex: I'm gonna run it down mid because gg", if they say something like that, there is a higher chance they would get banned as the system can now detect that.

They do get punished, when Riot catches them.

For whatever reason, Riot's automated system is very bad at catching them though.

If you want Riot to investigate a specific player you can always try submitting a support ticket along with some evidence to indicate that they were feeding. They can't tell you what happens as a result of your ticket, but they usually at least investigate it.
