How does the LeaverBuster system work?
Recently, I've gotten into low-priority queue for leaving around 2-3 matches in a row due to internet unstability.
I would like to ask, how does the LeaverBuster system exactly work? According to the wiki, it is determined by the percentage of the number of matches that you leave, not the number, but I would like to ask what is the threshold where you will get low priority?
Also, I've heard that if you leave too many matches, you can get temporarily or permanently banned. At what stage of time do we get banned, and if I get permanently banned, is it possible to get unbanned?
Another question is, if you get reported by other players too much, can you get banned, or muted in the chat or whatsoever? What is the penalty for getting reported too much?
Thank you for your help.

You could also stick to custom games, or P-V-AI games, The LeaverBuster doesnt cover those matches.
So if your internet is unstable, or you're sched is erratic, avoid normal and ranked games for a while.

Can you wait out LeaverBuster?
Leaving UnintentionallyYes, it's possible for the system to issue a penalty after leaving just a game or two, but it's also possible to re-enter the normal queue after waiting only a few minutes before five games.Does low PRIO queue go away?
To leave the low priority queue and avoid its penalties, summoners need to complete at least five matchmade games without abandoning the matches early. Declining or not accepting a match will also result in the queue's timer being reset.Why do I get LeaverBuster?
Every time you play a game and you don't leave you lose some points but you will never go below the Checkpoint, and if you leave too many games you will get the leaver buster queue.Do bots remove LeaverBuster?
They don't. This message will appear every time you leave a game, but custom and tutorial games will not earn you a Leaver Level. Leaverbuster only applies to games you have to queue up for = Normal, Ranked, Co-Op Vs AI, Dominion, etc.\
