    100% agree that action needs to be escalated. Their history with punishing known cheaters is abysmal as well.

    For those who don't know, around February 2017 in season 4 there was a summoner using a position manipulator to teleport on top of walls in the feast, game after game. This went on for most of the season without punishment - here's an image (with names removed) of the summoner that was reported a bunch of times.



    You can find the clip of said summoner on a certain moist streamer's clips (check the most viewed all time). Commenting on the summoner publicly in reddit, I had this exchange a few weeks later.



    If the punishment for blatant hacking of the game with video proof is a mere 24 hour suspension with rewards retained, I think we have a huge issue with moderation of cheating and improper conduct in the feast. The integrity of the game mode is paramount if we are shooting for e-sports level PVP in the long run.

    The case I posted here is the most blatant and obvious hacking of the game I've seen with multiple sources of video proof from livestreams (Can you even edit twitch clips?). There is a mountain of evidence, and he got the lightest punishment imaginable. People get worse punishments for chat violations in the feast.

    Let me say that again in its own paragraph to emphasize:

    People get punished more harshly for saying curses in chat than position hacking in a competitive game mode with a mountain of evidence.

    That is a deplorable way for SE to have handled that situation. That's a clear message that they just aren't serious about fostering a fun and competitive PvP environment.

    A moment of silence for the 3 pvpers who have been in the pvp community since season one who got permabanned for saying something harsh during a feast game.
