How to Get Unbanned from League of Legends in 2023

In this article we’ll go over how you should submit a LoL ticket request in order to get unbanned from League of Legends!

It’s no secret that League of Legends is one of the most played and popular games in the world. And, as a full blown PvP game, it gets intense and at times, even frustrating.

With that in mind, there are quite a few reasons for which LoL players land a ban on their accounts. But, unlike most other games, the predominant offense when it comes to League of Legends bans is chat toxicity, followed by scripting.

This guide is intended for those who have had their LoL account banned. For temporary suspensions, it’s usually best to just wait it out.

Can You Unban a League of Legends Account?

Short answer is, yes. Long answer is, well, it depends. There is significant skepticism about whether it is possible to get unbanned from LoL. But there’s a reason for that.

For example, here are a few cases with almost no chance of an unban in League:

• hate speech, slurs, threats.;
• chargebacks (unless you pay back the amount);
• extreme gifting abuse.

The entire process to unban a League of Legends account revolves around submitting a ticket request to appeal your ban. There is no special software, nor a particular Rioter that does that for a living.

A lot of players are reluctant to submit a League unban request due to stories from others claiming it’s impossible.

It’s definitely not impossible (apart from the above-mentioned), and here are a few more key things that matter:

• the accusation behind your suspended LoL account;
• prior offenses (especially in toxicity cases);
• your behavior upon submitting the unban request.

The Accusation Behind Your Restriction

There are quite a few reasons behind account restrictions, such as:

• cheating (scripts, bots, automated tools);
• toxicity (your behavior towards others);
• griefing (AFKing, refusing to participate, leaving games);
• boosting (account sharing, ELO, MMR, level, skins);
• real money transactions (currency, gifts, stolen payment information).

Based on our analysis of the latest 1315 bans in League of Legends that we’ve dealt with (outside of ban waves), we have found that the most common reasons for bans, in descending order, are: toxicity, allegations of cheating, boosting, and gifting abuse.

These four categories account for a significant proportion of the total bans in the game, indicating their importance in maintaining a fair and enjoyable gaming environment. By understanding these common ban reasons, players can take steps to avoid violating the game’s rules and potentially face a ban.

Note that while most account restrictions relate to toxicity, there are a few different ways to be toxic in League, some worse than others.

You have a good chance of getting unbanned from League of Legends as long as you were not punished for hate speech, real life threats, or slurs.

Prior Offenses and Suspensions

Your account’s history is also quite relevant when you submit a request to have your League of Legends account unbanned.

In that regard, this only applies to toxicity, griefing and boosting bans. Cheating almost always carries a permaban, so it’s very rare to have had previous suspensions on the same account, for the same reason.

According to Riot, the escalation process for toxicity usually is:

• 3 day chat restriction;
• 7 day chat restriction;
• 2 week account suspension;
• permanent ban.

However, there are cases where they can issue a permanent ban right after a 3-day chat restriction, for example. This happens in cases of extreme toxicity though.

If you received a permanent ban shortly after a chat restriction, and your chat logs are not terrible, you have a good chance of getting unbanned from LoL.

Your Behavior Upon Submitting a LoL Unban Appeal

From our experience handling League of Legends ban appeals, we’ve seen cases where players have tried to contact Riot Games Support themselves, only to be rude or make threats (of any kind). We want to emphasize that this behavior is never helpful and can even decrease (to as low as zero) the chances of getting your account unbanned.

When submitting a League of Legends ban appeal, it’s crucial to remain respectful and avoid any aggressive behavior. At Unbanster, we’re here to guide you through the process and provide you with the necessary support to recover your account. Our team’s expertise and experience can help you streamline the appeal process and increase your chances of success.

Thus, you should always be on your best possible behavior when submitting a LoL unban appeal request. No matter what you’re going through that day, don’t take it out on Riot Support.

More so, when appealing a toxicity ban, do not be:

• demanding;
• assertive;
• aggressive;
• arrogant;
• condescending.

And, regardless of any circumstances, do not be rude, offensive and don’t threaten them or yourself.

Toxicity is all about reformation, and you need to show that you are a reformed player. Anything else will not result in your LoL account being unbanned,

Last but not least, if you were punished for being toxic, don’t blame it on someone else. Your account is your responsibility. Account sharing is also against the rules, so unless it was compromised, you are responsible for any actions taken on it.

At Unbanster, our team of experienced League of Legends players has helped numerous happy clients appeal and overturn their bans for various reasons, including toxicity, cheating and boosting.

We understand the frustration and disappointment that comes with a banned account, and we are dedicated to providing effective and trustworthy services to help you recover your account. Our team’s expertise and experience can help you navigate the unban appeal process and increase your chances of getting unbanned from League of Legends.

Hacked League Account Unban Request

Note that for “Hacked / Compromised Account” ban appeals, they will ask you a set of extra questions to verify your ownership.

You should have your account ownership information ready for the appeal. Regardless, here’s what you should expect:

• your current IP, email address as well as all other emails used on the account;
• the date and location where the account was created;
• whether or not any friends or family had access to your account;
• any other Riot games you play on the account;
• explanation of how you lost access to the account;
