Even playing with AI also botting?

I play an AI games with 2 players then i realized both of them are botting. Intentionally feeding all lanes and never use any abilities. Plus they are all higher level than my 2nd account. Both of them purposely walk into enemy bots and die for nothing with score 0/12 and 0/11.

Yes, you can, and should, report them after the game since they're IP farming to sell those accounts later.

Funny thing is Riot can always MAC ban them(as well as account ban) to prevent them from ever connecting to LoL server

Except, you know, if they use a program to change their MAC address. Then they just connect.

Actually... it looks like Windows 10 has a built-in way to change your Mac Address, at least on Wifi.

As easy as it is to change/spoof your IP/Mac addresses,it is almost as easy to detect when they're being spoofed from the other end. There are ways to actually modify your MAC though so it's hardcoded into your device that would be vrirtually undetectable but I won't go into that.

The actual MAC address yes, but it's a simple thing to change what your computer sends out as the MAC address.

Heck, I remember doing it as a college kid to get my consoles to work on the college network when they only registered my computer. Just changed the XBOX360 mac address to be my computer's. I wasn't able to be on the network on my computer while I was using the console, but that wasn't that big of an issue.

But a, 90% of cumminty i doubt is willing to go find out how to, and B)thats why i said in conjugation with IP/account ban

I mean, if they find out they're banned, a quick google search would likely tell them that they're being prevented from creating additional accounts via MAC address tracking, then a quick google search after that would tell them how to circumvent it.

This is a huge problem. Player Behavior really needs to work on it. It's far more important than the new honor system.
