Is it considered wintrading to concede on purpose in ranked?

I’ve already reached legend for the month so winning doesn’t matter to me anymore. A lot of my ranked matches are against rank 5-1 players so I’ve been conceding near the end of games when it’s clear I’ve won already. I don’t mind giving them a little bit of a boost on their trip up on ladder - is this considered wintrading or a bannable offense?

its only trading when there’s reciprocity. these people are stangers whondidn’t ask you to concede and thus owe you nothing. so no, not wintrading.

Every time your press concede button, a counter will be added and report to Blizzard.

By the time that counter get past certain threshold then Blizzard will permanently ban your account for win-trading.

So just don’t risk it, fight until your opponent smashed your face to 0 health (and watch their BM as well).
