• Chatbans are automatic if enough people report you in a match.

• Now trolls are given the power to get rid of anyone they don't like.

• If someone is better than you on other team, you can instantly get them removed from ranked for a week.

• If someone has a bad game, you can get them banned for a week.

Since it's automatic, any premade has the power to delete people from rank, this is going to be insane watching people get banned left and right.

I got chat banned before even though I never talked or typed anything. (I disabled chat because people kept saying the N word in comms). This is going to be a shitshow.

Edit: https://www.reddit.com/r/VALORANT/comments/m3aa2s/now_that_riot_is_going_to_ban_people_from_rank_if/gqq82ti/ Riot developer says they made changes to the report system to make it less likely people will abuse this apparently. Still this is going to increase the amount of smurfs.
