title. Is it morally wrong? I refuse to win unfairly. Hasn't happened to me yet. But I'm not supporting an adc that can't play the game fairly, and I'm not helping someone win that's cheating in a competitive scene.

Asking because I figured that i would send the replay video to Riot support should this happen to me and I don't want to be punished for my moral code...

As long as you dont int or anything, then you'll be fine. afk farming isnt really reportable

If I were you, I wouldn't be comfortable making that call. It's hard to know for certain.

I made a super lucky insta-flash dodge of an Annie ult once and got accused of scripting. I wasn't... I just got lucky. But I should hope that none of my teammates would AFK if they suspected I wasn't legit. Not only would that likely cost us the game, but my teammates would themselves be opened up to punishments over a misunderstanding.

How would you know a person is hacking?

Nah, you won't be banned for that.

imo yes. if you are deliberately trying to throw a game. regardless of the reason. you should be 14 dayed at the very least. ESPECIALLY in ranked. even if 1 person on your team is cheating, you are screwing over the other 3 players. and the enemy team could have a hacker as well. there is ZERO reason you should EVER int, troll, or not try in a ranked game. just report and move on
