Banned for intentionally feeding when I wasn't

http://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/2512958313/207894882?tab=overview I recently received an intentional feeding ban for this game. I was playing Lucian and ended with a final score of 3/14 with a weird final build which is why I think I got banned. Addressing the troll-looking build, I only had that for the last minute of the game when the game was practically over since the enemy team had over a 10k gold lead and my team basically gave up. I got the GA because it was a bit of a joke since the enemy adc rushed a GA first item. It's still not that troll of an item since high elo players have done it occasionally on Lucian. I got mobility boots since I like seeing Lucian's running animation. Figured I might as well make the last minute of the game look cool. Lastly, I got runaans hurricane because I wanted to see if Lucian's double shot worked with it.

For the rest of the game I was tryharding with the normal BotRK, Black Cleaver Lucian build. While I admit my KDA was atrocious, it doesn't really represent how I actually played especially considering our team was behind for most of the game and most of my deaths were from laning phase. If you watch the game (not sure how to show a replay), I ended laning phase around 3/10. While that is a lot of deaths, I was not intentionally feeding. I was actively playing the game and trying my best. I solo killed my laner twice and killed the massively fed enemy jungler once. I received almost of all their fed jungler's attention since I was the only one on my team winning lane and my jungler was massively behind (he ended 0/10). I admit I should have played more passive, but normals are for practice and I tend to play lane very aggressive and go for outplays in them to warm up and further improve my mechanics. The source of a lot my deaths was not me inting but instead from fights or ganks I could have turned since I was massively ahead in lane (solokilled mid twice, 2 level lead, cs lead, etc). Most of these possible won fights were butchered by my rusty mechanics(which is why I was warming up in norms) and ended with enemy mid and/or jg killing me and escaping at very low hp after burning summs. I also ended the game with almost the highest damage dealt on my team. Just a few hundred behind our adc if that shows I wasn't intentionally feeding. Also had second highest cs about 20 behind our adc. Just pointing out a few things that show I was trying.

Sorry about the word wall. Just trying to show my point the best I can and hoping I can get a response from a Rioter.

Feel free to check out my match history or my op.gg if that doesn't work http://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-history/NA1/207894882 https://na.op.gg/summoner/userName=Confident

Scroll through it and you'll see that I don't intentionally feed. My last worst game was 0/6 on Vladimir. Similar situation to this game. Sold my protobelt and boots for a statik shiv at the end. The score of the game 11-2 at 15min and the enemy team was already ending.

Edit: http://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/2512958313/207894882?tab=builds To any Rioter that reads this, this shows I had my dumb build for only the last 1.5 minutes of the game when the enemy team was taking their sweet time BMing while ending the game with the 19k gold lead.

If you die even once with a build like that (especially if you dump your entire normal build to buy it), it can be seen as intentionally feeding. Because it is. The rest of your game might be fine, but seriously, why are you selling your entire inventory to buy troll items?

I would recommend you drop the habit of giving up before the game ends, no matter how far gone the game seems. If you want to surrender, start a surrender vote. Don't make it look like you were throwing the game by buying troll items.

Dunno why the downvotes, this seems legit. Can you link the exact wording of your ban?

3/14 is really bad, but your entire team did poorly. Kled clearly has a troll build, and the other team utterly ran you guys over across almost every lane.

Might do you good to send in a support ticket on top of this and posting it's reply if a rioter still hasn't responded. Otherwise hope this can be resolved easily.

I think that the best way to prove the item thingies is use the Replay System. Unless you played this game on last patch, in which case: Good luck proving some things.

You know, I genuinely believe that it is possible you were incorrectly banned by the Lucian game. It's clear you aren't an ADC main, and you're being truthful about your item build (People have lied about that before. Someone once claimed to be "trying AP Graves"...halfway through a game with AD runes/masteries)

I mean, maybe Tantram or someone will come in, clouds rumbling and lightning bolt-ready, but until then, I suggest sending a ticket into support and I'll toss a +1.

Well this should teach you not to build troll builds even if its at the exact moment you lose. Its stupid, pointless and as you can see it will get you banned. A lesson for the future. Btw send replay to RITO or smt, should get you unbanned.

If you include your Lucian game, there are 3 games in the past 2 weeks that would, to an observer, appear to be int material. The two you have mentioned and a 0/10/0 Draven game. Even if you weren't inting (I don't quite see how you can average a death every 1:30 and not be inting) some of these games certainly look far from innocent and it is very clear why an automated system would ban you.

OP - It's possible (not likely, but possible) that you were a false positive from the instant feedback system. The only way to confirm this for sure is to do two things (both of them) - keep this thread alive, and get a human response from player support in a ticket.

It is possible that it was a combination of things that you (and we) aren't thinking of that got you banned, and they can usually provide more information if either Tantram et al. show up here or if you get a human (not canned) response from player support.

I read your story and it definitely sounds plausible that you have a case (if you're telling the truth) - just make sure not to lie either here or in a ticket, even little white lies, because they'll ruin your case. Not accusing you of doing so, but just reminding.

Best of luck to you!
