How to Tell If You Are Banned in LoL

Check chat restrictions, queue penalties or account suspensions through the LoL client, account email and Riot Support.

When Riot applies a penalty to your League of Legends account, the client normally shows a notice at login or when you try to use the restricted feature. It may identify a chat restriction, queue delay, ranked restriction, temporary suspension or permanent closure and, where applicable, its duration.

How to check

  1. Sign in to the Riot Client and read every startup notice and reform card.
  2. Check the account email for Riot messages and verify the sender domain before opening links.
  3. If login fails, try account recovery first; a password problem is not proof of a suspension.
  4. If the decision appears wrong, send one clear ticket to Riot Support.

Do not trust anyone selling an “unban service”, share your account, evade a penalty with another account, or spam Support. Review the cited behaviour and use only the official appeal route.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where is the ban duration shown?
For a temporary suspension it is normally displayed in the client notice or Riot's account message.
Is an unban service legitimate?
No. Only Riot Support can review a penalty; never give credentials to a third party.
