Special Icon for New League of Legends players

I am a new player to league of legends. I started playing because it is my girlfriends favorite game and half a dozen times thought I'd never play again because of a toxic player. I've thought about this a lot. I still run into my fair share of toxicity, but I think a simple solution would be to offer new players on new accounts a special icon above their name that wears off after a period of time or a number of games. What this icon means is that the player is new to the game and toxicity to this player is EXTRA bad. When a player with this icon reports a toxic player, it is rated higher than an average report. In other words, being toxic to a new player means a higher penalty. Furthermore, if this summoner honors a teammate, this player gets a point. When a player gets 10 honors (or any reasonable number) from players that are new, they will get an IP boost for a period of time. I think that if you incentivized the good players to remain positive when playing with a noob, and you punish toxic players higher, then it would foster a much friendlier and less toxic environment in game.

at low level, that is where all the toxic people (whom got their main account banned) congregate .

just report them as you see them. It'll get better at the later levels when they don't survive the early stages of punishment.

Just don't retaliate to them, and fighting toxicity against toxicity will get you punished as well.
