Ban reason: “game ruin”
Why you should be unbanned: so I was streaming a game last night that went all downhill for me. I played terribly, got caught many times and died 20 times. But in no way I was doing this on purpose or to ruin. Everyone viewing me game can see I am trying to not die but I keep getting targeted by enemies. I try to tp bot to save tower some times and die due to arcs long flux range. I tried to stick with team, ward and make gank plays to get us back in and was even close to finishing scepter but the game became too hard since I was too far behind. I do not have a history of game ruining or intentionally feeding, I never do this and never will. I play my hardest till the end and it’s unfortunate I had a very bad game like this one but I don’t believe it deserves a ban since I wasn’t playing with I’ll intentions. I made mistakes, yes but so does everyone and for the most part I play great and average a good kda so one bad game of the season shouldn’t be an instant ban. Please unban me I’ll play better.

I was warding, coordinating ganks and ulting when I could on the important enemy heroes. I played well all night and had one garbage game. Pleas unban

Feel free to explain your actions then – Having 1 bad game in 1 season doens’t justify putting 0 effort and dying doing the same thing over and over again, or diving towards enemy team when you’re underfarmed/underleveled.

So feel free to rewatch the game, and explain what happened in this game instead of trying to shake away responsability by claiming “i play good in general, 1 bad game doens’t mean im throwing”

Thanks

Okay I will do my best to explain all actions.

Death #2: Bara charges super deep into the arc warden going into the enemies tower, i as a good teammate not trying to leave him behind go with him and as I go in he then runs out leaving me to get hit by tower+arcwarden. Not only did he initiate the fight and the. Abandon it immediately being the tank, he also did not stay on top of me to allow me and live. If bara stayed on me while arc used his slow I would have lived since the slow has no effect if near an ally. I believe this was intention of bara since he knows arcs spell doesn’t work if he is near me and the way he let me die was a bit sus. None the less I bring up this death because bara was supposed to be in my lane contesting arcs farm as he is the most op hero in the current map. Bara abandoned lane assignment leaving me 1 v 2 against an arc + kunk which left me doomer.

I am trying to still get experience and stay within decent levels and not get zoned too hard. in the process of me trying to leech xp I do end up dying in some maybe “avoidable ways” but even if the deaths were avoided this would also mean I was not taking any xp from lane. In other words I thought it would be better to risk taking some xp because being leave 6 and 0/4 to me is better than being level 1 and 0/0.

After this I do tp bot and die stupidly twice, however, this is not “grief”. The first time I honestly did not expect them to dive me into tower because in my head I thought since I have a bara and pit (who could tp with ult and scroll) that the enemy wouldn’t be so bold as to diving a tower into a hero that can heal. I was incorrect in thinking both tho because the enemy dove me and not even one team mate attempted to tp or bara didn’t charge them. At this point arc is probably free farming uncontested for literally 10 minutes. This is a huge problem you can’t let arc farm this long without killing him and everyone should know this so I’m not sure why no one was given shit for not attempting to stop bottom or gank, this should also be deemed game ruining but that’s besides the point. Again I tp bot but this time to stop the tower from getting killed, again they dive me, kunkka goes behind trees and X me and gets me as he’s been trying this all game without a single charge from bara to help. Keep in mind if bara and pit did come to help bot both arc and kunk would die. So again I die which seems a stupid death from me but I have no choice because there is no other lane I can go to or jungle so I am trying my best to still get xp and creeps. After laning phase I do try sticking with team for a good amount of the game and did pick up some wards and organize smoke ganks but in the end with my slow start and low hp I was overpowered by the sheer jump potential of sentinel. With an arc and X mark coming my way none stop and let’s not forget to mention the tuskar that would keep blink ulting me into instant kills, it was far too hard for me to recover but this does not mean it was intentional. The team had its moments of good fights but still I couldn’t manage to stay alive. Some of these fights I wasn’t in the front, rather the enemy came from the other side of me making it seem like I was in the front. Overall I did not grief or did purposely. No one defended bottom except me and I died trying to do so. In any other case the bars would be the one getting an earful for abandoning lane and not helping/tping when enemies are ganking. Whenever I got ganked I would mass ping myself to alert allies but no one cared so idk why they got so mad at my death count. I was streaming the game and you can see me trying to escape each death for the life of me. I do not believe I game ruined because my lane was a complete suicide role anyways which means I have to eat the bad lane in order for other lanes to do well, which they did. I think I could have traded not dying with losing a lot of xp but idk if this trade would be worth it, I don’t want to be level 6 at 30 minutes.

It seems like for the most part the sentinel team was targetting me and getting me out the picture as fast as possible since I was once shottable by tuskars ult. They were enjoying it since my team wasn’t attempting to save me much and they were diving me every given chance for kills. When the whole enemy team is jumping u there isn’t much u can do but at least I baited them into their own death a good amount of times. If you watch replay you can see times they dove stupidly and my team punished them so my sacrifices weren’t for nothing. Please do not assume the worst I always play my best and want to win, this was one of my worst games the whole season and I have been playing well for most part with no prior history these past few seasons of game ruining, it’s mostly for my attitude and chat. Please review this, thank you

Death #2 was clearly labeled and color coded as a normal death and has nothing to do with your ban so I am not sure why that is the only death you are trying to refute on it’s own. The rest of your explanation is a vague attempt to claim everything you did was justified as acceptable gameplay when there is a clear death by death breakdown of where the issues were. If you need a reminder as to why you were banned you should probably read the ban in it’s entirety. Appeal denied and an additional day is added for the server leave.

After a long conversation between Shadow and me & Mustard, we decided to reduce his ban by 72h (48h from the original ban, and 24h from the server penalty) – Should you ever find yourself reported for game ruining (gamewise), these 48h from the original ban removed here will be added on top of that ban.

To note, your explanation still doens’t align with what happened ingame, and while you did acknowledge that some of your deaths were bad, you don’t acknowledge why they were bad, or the low effort gaming that lead to them happening in the first place, however you did give your word that you would try to do better in future games where this scenario occurs, and you did try to listen to the options/suggestions given, so that’s why we came to the conclusion of doing this deal with you.
