Two players just made my game miserable, and I'm sure they won't see any punishment for it.

I'd totally call out who they are, except that would get me in more trouble than what they did to make me miserable.

Anyways, in my last game, I had first pick (draft, normal). I enjoy Sett's kit but haven't played him a whole lot yet due to ban rates and popularity. Seeing as I'm first pick, I immediately click him to show my plan.

20 or so seconds later, ban phase comes up. I prepare to ban fiora, and see Sett is banned. At first I thought I'd somehow banned my pick...nope. Both myself and our midlaner who'd shown his pick had their picks banned, by the botlane duo. Naturally this upset me, so I asked in not so few words, What the hell? The response: "His HP regen got nerfed". Ok, so I'm getting trolled for whatever reason, alongside our midlaner.

See if at this point it'd A) only been 1 of us and B) they immediately said "oh sorry, wasn't paying attention and panic banned"-i'd be a little upset, but I understand sometimes it happens. I've accidentally done it when not paying attention. But we'd had our choices shown for at least 20 seconds, and the bans weren't those quick "o crap" bans on accident. I seriously considered trolling the game, given I was already being trolled in champ select, but didn't end up doing it. End up going as Garen, counter picked by a Darius.

I did my best (which wasn't as good as normal given the state of my mind). All the while the botlane duo is occassionally insulting myself and other players on the team in very subtle ways. AKA "top gap". Ways that a filter won't catch, I'm sure.

So what's going to happen to them? Probably nothing. Those 40 minutes were probably the worst feeling 40 minutes of League I've felt in years. I DID NOT want to be playing, and vocalized it at one point-one of the trolls tried to use this to say I was trolling them. They may have reported me too for all I know.

Why the hell is this ok? Why is there NO OPTION for reporting pre-game and post game as of yet? I reported both of them and put detailed text in describing what happened, but again based on past experience, nothing (or very little) will come of it. Yet I'm sure if I'd reacted in how they were trying to get me to-by flaming, feeding, etc-I'd have certainly been hit with something (as a note, my account has never so much as had a chat restriction or warning or anything).

Ok, done venting. But seriously this kind of thing makes think about quitting.

This is league of legends. The only way you can "have fun" is trolling.
