The cancer of league

So, I just played my promo for the second time again, the first game I lost, second game I won after 65 mins, then it came the third.... Oh yes, the dreadful third match where all hell can happen and all hell broke loose. At first, this seemingly harmless player locks into Olaf, not a problem. Then it came to the loading screen, not a problem.... ten minutes not has passed, olaf is at 27%, hmmm, that is kind of strange, but people have slow computers, not a big deal. Finally, after what it seemed like a decade of waiting, we are in the game screen. Oh, what a beauty to see the in game screen after waiting for 30 minutes. We had our typical "toaster" jokes, and all seemed fine. This, however, is like the calm before the storm. 3 minutes in, Olaf give top first blood, by standing still. After Olaf had died, he types: AHAHAHAHAHAHA, and then precedes to type: I WILL TELL YOU HOW I DIED, and as a result, he then precedes to go afk. Now, as I pointed out before, this is my LAST promotion match, the one where I bank on to make plays, to play as a team, and to do whatever to get us a win. Similarly, the Xin Zhao jungle also was on his last promo game, and had similar goals in mind. All that, all that hard work to get to promos, all the feed and all the sadness from toxicity to lead us to the promo, had been naught. They had been naught, due to one person, who admits in his game, that he has a bad computer, yet still play ranked, and simply choose to afk, the choice he had made alone, screwed up 4 people who had worked hard to get there. Sadly, he will get off with nothing but a warning, while I, who lost his promo, will have to grind my way up again, and pray that I get lucky. Whats sadder, is that things like these happen constantly, due to the huge amount of players league have, most players type awfully like what 10-13 years old kids in CoD sounds. As for this recent reset, somehow, getting matched up with bad players, or players who have a bad attitude, is rather common. Of course that this has happened over and over again, but this time for me personally was just too much, I believe I had done my dues to get to where I am, only to be thwarted over and over again by random people, its like you have built something you believe worthwhile, and just to let other people who dont even know you crush that. To be honest, I love League, it is an amazing game, but these constant trolls and afks in game are just killing everything that this game has stood for. Riot, please fix your match making systems, please make the ranked games more forgiving if you have afks or trolls. You goal is to make this game better, right? Anyways, there is much else to say, I just wanted to vent some frustration and anger out, but if you guys ever read this, maybe consider how most players feel, and help us, so that we can help you as well. Thanks

In my opinion, the match making system is fine. I think they need to be a bit more aggressive with the report system.
