Something I absolutely hate about Champ Select

Apologies for this angry rant, but I just hate seeing it happen, whether it happens to me or my teammates.

So I am in Champion Select, and I am around First, Second, or Third Pick. I decide to go Jungle, because it is my best role. All of a sudden, my teammate immediately below me, DuoGuy1 (just an example name), locks in a Jungle, and his partner, DuoGuy2, says in chat, "sorry, duo-queue. let him jungle." Then, I have to panic-pick whatever next role I am good at, and I may end up locking in someone I am not good with, like Sona or Lulu. Afterwards, I play the match and then I end up feeding because I have a champ who I do not know how to play. What is even worse is that both of the Duo Queue partners start harassing me because I am not playing well, and it is so infuriating to not only lose my main role but to get harassed from the people who forced me out of it.

And I don't just get mad when it happens to me. When it happens to my teammate, it is equally as bad. Do I stand up for the poor guy and have our team divided into Duo Queue players vs. Solo or do I just be a bystander and let him get pushed out of his role?

But seriously. I have the Pick Order. Why should I have to accommodate the fact that I have duo-queue partners? The two players should still acknowledge the fact that they will not necessarily get their role, even while Duo-queuing, and they need to respect that. Duo-queue is not a legitimate reason for harassing someone out of his or her role.
