The popular and verbal Twitch streamer known as Tyler1 has been banned permanently from League of Legends. The reason for this is his bad behaviour in the chat, but he's also ruined the experience for other players.

Tyler1's behaviour obviously made him popular as his Twitch channel had a rising number of viewers. All were not entertained it seems, and the viewers were divided into fans on one hand and those wanting him gone on the other.

We don't know for how long game creator Riot Games have watched him, but they've decided to ban him. This action has caused commotion in the community, with the main issue being there are lots of other players getting away with worse.

Here's a post on the ban from Riot Games' official page:

"Hey all,

Instant Feedback catches the most unsportsmanlike players in League, but some people go out of their way to continue ruining games for the community. Because of a well-documented history of account bans for verbal abuse, intentional feeding, as well as account sharing/purchasing, evasion of sportsmanship systems, and player harassment, we will not allow Tyler1 to hold a League of Legends account, indefinitely. Any account definitively used by him will be banned immediately upon identification.

We know we're not perfect, and this dragged on too long, but we want you to know when the rare player comes along who's a genuine jerk, we've still got your back."
