Proposal to deal with intentional feeders in ranked

  1. Report them
  2. Numerous reports in a single game (although modified for 3-4-man premades) should be sent to a Riot Behavior specialist, who skims over the game and analyzes the reported player's actions and chat
  3. If guilty, player should be hit with a lengthy ranked ban of 2-3 months (Losing 1/4 of the season to play will actually hurt some players) and those who were affected negatively (teammates) are refunded a small portion of the LP they lost in those games; if in promos, it will apply once they exit promos. Exempted in Master/Challenger tier, for obvious reasons.
  4. Numerous false reports will lose YOU LP, to be sure you don't waste their time.

Yes, this is subjective, but so are a lot of the offenses, some being completely ridiculous imo (saying "gg ez" is BANworthy somehow). This will ease some stress from players who deal with this for 20+ minutes, giving them some peace of mind that it's not all that bad. The offender WILL be punished, rather than being permitted to "troll" a game every now and then to dodge the system, and they'll be compensated for that awful experience. It'll also renew some faith in the Tribunal system, which is always seen as a joke whenever you threaten to report anyone. And 9/10, the person I reported for running down mid won't get hit for a long time, maybe ever. How many games has he/she ruined by then?

The issue with such a system is the players that send in reports can't really be moderated to only use it the way that it is designed.

People can be extremely salty after a loss and send in reports for "intentional feeding" despite it not being the case. If enough false reports trigger a manual review, even a glance would take a large amount of time because of the quantity of players that play this game.

OK

1 report flags a account for review why should multiple reports matter if 1 already flags it for review? I mean a manual review would be nice but the resources that would be required for every time a person get multi reported for a game would be HUGE.

Currently Intentional feeding is a minimum punishment of 14 days followed by a perma ban. This is kinda a harsher punishment as they either fix it the first time or lose the account.

No. You shouldn't punish people for reporting. I understand why you add this however this would make people afraid to report abusers if it is a borderline feed. Like starting bad fights on purpose. Or getting caught out warding(constantly).
