Prime example of scapegoat behavior and blaming restricted players

Post game: https://pastebin.com/RUKqrn7T Match details: https://matchhistory.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/#match-details/NA1/2970971860/92227?tab=overview In game chat: https://i.imgur.com/gguLllZ.jpg You have to open this to see the bottom where Sion suggests everyone false reports me.

So, we started this game off well. I ganked up top and killed their Aatrox, things were good, we had a plan.

Then Ahri turned out to be asleep or just uninterested in doing anything and we started getting snowballed hard. I asked respectfully for us to just end it with an FF because we were so far behind and we were getting deleted, but that was denied. So I kept playing. A few times I died because Xin's W smartcasts in the complete opposite direction that I was aiming ( a common problem with Camille too that needs to be addressed) but more or less the entire team decided it would be better to just spam reports on me for intentionally feeding when I was dying in fights or trying to pick off their backline. Jinx died just as many times and some of my deaths were dumb because of poor judgement, but never was it running into them to feed. I am actually curious if there could be an investigation into this game and if my account is at risk because of things like this, because it happens so often that people like me are victimized by the actual toxic people who get away with it.

Can't really look at the rest of your chat, but if you did nothing wrong, then you shouldn't be punished.

That said, there's no reason to bring up other players being toxic or that you would report them. That's really not defusing the situation, and if anything, it is likely worsening it.

If you did nothing to warrant a punishment, their reports will not do much, even if you are chat restricted.

Just mute them, and, if you want to, report them.

False reports do nothing, but that’s not to say your account is in good standing. If the rest of your chat was similar to your screenshot that could be considered harassing. If you’re going to report someone, just do it after the game, no need to type in chat about how you’re going to report someone, or point out other players’ negative behavior. Just play.

Why did you accuse them of being toxic at 24:52?
