Intentionally banned my hero so I wouldn't play it...

So there is the gist of it. I chose Garen and my teammate banned him so I would have to play something else. I wouldn't select another character and got penalized for it, this seems to be unfair. If your own teammate bans your hero, you should not be penalized for choosing not to play the match. I had just gotten a new skin for him to boot. I know it sounds petty, but why? Why? And why weren't they penalized? Toxicity and queue times are going to get me to leave this ^&*@ing game.

I'm so tired of seeing this nonsense.

Bans are there so people can ban whomever they feel gives them a strategic advantage, or the team a strategic advantage. I'm so tired of these crybaby posts about people who get their champs banned. Learn to play more than one champion. You haven't even seen the enemy team comp yet -- you have no idea what you wanna play (or at least you shouldn't)

Each player was given their own choice of what to ban and they can ban what they want. There is no penalty over banning what they want because it is their choice. You chose to dodge champion select so because you dodged you just wait a bit to re-queue, that was your choice. Neither of you get a punishment for this occurring. Also, I don't know what other games you have been playing but those are not a big issue.

And if anyone needs an example of how toxic this community is, they need only read this thread. Every post is essentially saying, people being abusive is fine, just take it like the masochist Riot wants you to be.

They're the scum f the earth.

That said, they still have the right to ban whatever they feel they need to, and even though that makes them assholes, it's not punishable. Make sure you have a secondary pick you also enjoy using just in-case, or don't hover anyone at all (then you'd know if it was a target-ban at you or not) if you don't play a commonly banned champion like Garen.
