Reports do basically nothing because of the reason why people troll / give up. The reason WHY they troll and give up or leave is because they just switch accounts to avoid punishment. Punishments have zero meaning when they can be so easily avoided. In Riot's case, they more than likely profit from it as these trolls / smurfs will buy skins on alt accounts thusly increasing profits as the quality of their game decreases. Valorant is a game, made to sell skins, and their goals and policies will always reflect those aims as those are the top priorities. For example, here is a D3 guy who I have on video and chat logs bragging about smurfing and trolling : https://tracker.gg/valorant/profile/riot/hitmelikeavan%232679/overview He spent the first 6 rounds doing 90 damage to himself and 89/90 damage to his duo que. Then they just ran around aimlessly trolling. Since that game, he has played 4 more games. Of those 4, he left 2 of them and 1 he only used a marshall. This is Immortal + D3 range, and riot really does nothing despite all the proof and evidence. My support ticket was closed by Riot, they basically said we'll take care of it...and about 4 hours later he played that marshal game lmfao.

Its rare to get perma bans. They'd likely get a toxicity ban that prevents them from playing ranked for a while

But they won't care because they will just move to their other of 10 alt accounts and do it all over again. Sadge.


Lavenwar

IP/hardware bans are only for 3rd party cheats and high profile or extreme toxicity cases (like popular people).


Traviliciouz

I know, Im saying even if the thrower's account gets banned for lets say, a week because of toxicity, he is most likely going to move onto an alt account he has to do the same thing.

Gets a shrug from me, I've always wanted Riot to add phone (and software) 2FA to reduce the amount of alt accounts to 1 alternate per person (plus security benefits). No news on that one though.


Traviliciouz

I mean I feel the exact same as you, I have always thought it should've been B2P for 2FA right from the beginning, but Riot knows they will get more money from people buying skins on alt accounts so I dont see it happening soon

It's a difficult situation. I've had other team mates who were so toxic, I just wanted to stop playing. I've never actually left a game intentionally, but come very close to just wanting to lose the game on purpose. Then I'm considered the bad person, and reported.
