Why can allied champions troll you?

Gonna be honest, kinda tilted rn because in my last game we had a Trundle jungle who got pretty fed, but only ever came bot when there was a wave to tax. No, he didn't gank, he just came to tax. So I took his Krugs, which he didn't like. After that he kept using his pillar to cancel my recall. And obviously it's my fault because I trolled him when he was winning the game for us (which he didn't, the support and I did pretty good ourself).

But that begs the question, why is it a thing that a Trundle, Tahm Kench or Anivia can literally troll their own team, potentially killing them. There are probably more but 3 of them is enough to not be able to ban them as a solo player. At the very least I demand that every CC should be able to hit your own team, so it's a level playing field.

A troll is going to troll you whether they have those tools or not. Also, being able to hit your allies with CC would actually be a massive buff to some champions like Alistar Blitzcrank Nautilus Volibear

Imagine if Alistar could just headbutt the ADC out of a bad situation... I could see pro players somehow abusing that, like a slightly worse Tahm Kench W.

I mean you can troll your Aatrox even as Soraka by just healing him while his R, you can troll your teammates by implying that u will go for a gank, by just missing your smite, by stealing all the kills. You can troll your teammate by even flashing away of them in bad situation, knowing they have no smite.

Because the games measured by wins and losses. Some one going Anivia Bard Blitzcrank Taliyah and using abilitys to screw allies over is frustrating but accomplishes exactly the same end result as picking any champion in the game and running it down mid.

Abilitys that can screw allies tend to be very strong when used properly creating a skill gap between good and bad players on them. Them misfiring is part of the power budget and skill curve.
