Are these things you can report for?

I get these enough to ask if it is report worthy.

  1. Player says in champ select "Hey guys I was lagging really bad last game, heads up" ^- This was really recent but When people do this stuff and they KNOW they are lagging it really ruins the experience.

  2. Support player grabs smite because he didnt get jungle and follows you around smiting your buffs but isn't toxic in chat. ^--- This has happen to me ALOT and I noticed the reports I do on this doesnt get a banned feedback.

  3. Player picks a first time champ and feeds. ^-- I know sometimes people do well the first time they play a champ. But If they feed doing this is it considered intentional Feeding? (Honestly want to know)

  4. You highlight the champ (Pre-select) (non-flavor of the month) then the other person bans to be a donkey. (I.e; You pick tryndamere top and he bans tryn) ^----- This happens enough that I no longer show what champ I will pick.

I just want to know if I am wasting reports because I know if you false report it limits the power of your reports.

  1. you can report, but its more of a leavebusters thing.

  2. well... no sorry. the system doesnt understand that this guy is trolling.

  3. also no. its stupid that you try a champ first time in ranked, but there is no rule against it.

  4. also nope. system cant tell if player just doesnt want to play with/against this champ or if he is an ass.

ps: about the feedback if someone got banned: i got that message 1 time. its really rare, you only get it when the game you reported this guy in was the one that got him banned

  1. Not really ,as he just warned u that he might lag that game too. If he lags, meh thats fine, if he dcs leaverbuster might catch him

  2. Not sure tbh, double jungling is not against rules really.

  3. No, ofc not

  4. No, as person is allowed to ban whatever he wants, if u are banning after him , ban his champion ,if u are picking before him pick his champion.

  1. No
  2. Yes
  3. No
  4. Maybe. They may have not even looked at the preselects, so it depends on if they were an ass about it.

While I understand wanting to learn new champs, for the love of god don't first time them in ranked... Thats such a dick move and your team mates don't deserve that

  1. Nope! Perfectly fine in Riot's eyes to play ranked with 800+ ping. Or any ping for that matter. As long as you stay connected.

  2. Nope! Perfectly fine in Riot's eyes. He wanted to double jungle! they would say. Riot does not force players to participate. You can stand at the fountain all you like as long as you are not AFK. Same thing here. There are not performance expectations in the rules.

  3. Nope! See most of #2

  4. Nope! Riot is in full support of people being A-holes to one another.

Here is a list of things that are not bannable, and thus should not be reported:

  1. Playing poorly, but still trying (includes your categories 1 and 3).
  2. Trying a new champ, even in ranked. I still try to talk them out of it if they admit it in champ select.
  3. Picking off-meta or underplayed champs (I know you probably already know this, but it relates to number 4).

These things are bannable and can be reported, but I would personally only report them if muting didn't seem to cut it:

  1. Assisting the enemy team (Disco Nunu with Smite following your jungler around, banning your desired pick, and other things designed to hinder your own team's performance).
  2. Disconnecting/Going AFK (if the player is absent for a significant portion of the game, they need to find a better ISP or a single player game).

1: Yes, but only in Ranked should it be a report-able offense.

2: If they are doing it out of spite and you can prove it, yes.

3: No, feeding and learning a new (to them) champ are totally different. You're only playing with these people for one game (hopefully normals). Just give them helpful tips on the champion during the game. Tell them to play safe, ward, etc.

4: Situational. I normally will ban the popular banned champions unless one of those bans will be picked by a team mate that is FIRST PICK. Example: Jax is a popular ban right now. I will ban him if the player that wants him is not first pick. If you highlighted Taric as your support and I banned Taric just to be a dick, then yeah, that should be reportable.
