Is racism still grounds for a permaban?

Just got out of a game with my jungler whom excessively used the word "n*gger (yi). I reported him, noone else did from what i could tell they all left immediately. I really don't like playing with children so I'm hoping even my lone report will do the community some good..?

1 report is all that is needed. And trust me no one wants a player like that in their games. It can HEAVILY increase the punishment tier.

It's not guaranteed to be a permaban, but it's definitely the easiest way to skip punishment tiers. Only one report is needed to flag the match, so when his case is reviewed it'll get looked at as long as someone reported it.

It is not known whether or not 1 game is enough to get their account investigated, but one report is enough to flag that game, yes. Thank you for reporting him, racism is definitely still grounds for a Permaban.

I have personally only seen one instance where I reported someone for calling my team a bunch of racial slurs, and it was a permaban.

The other times I have seen this happen and reported them for racism, nothing has really happened.

yes but sadly not right away.

im from austria and a few days ago i had a game with a player who found out where im from cause i missspelled a word with "ä" (german letter) so he assumed im from germany/austria and just called me h*tler child and jew-hater all game long. after ~30min he started saying "but tbh you are right, jews all deserve to be tortured to death" i obviously reported him and i checked on him right now (3 days later) he was just in a game.
