Matching up with toxic players

I was having a good day despite losing my first ranked today. With spirit held high and victory in sight, I set up to queue for another ranked game in hope to prove that I'm not the "stupid useless trynd" our support from last game claimed.

I'll make it short: we were smashed that game as well. Worth noting is that our new support, let's call him Brad because all Brads are mean, enjoyed pointing out every mistake made in the game, both for me, our midlaner and our jungler. First through excessive pinging, then the words started piling. Fine. Game's over and I queue up again, after taking some p!ss from Brad in the post-game chat. Bam. Matched up with Brad again. And boy he doesn't hold back when he calls me out for not going 7/0 after 5 minutes. Spent more time ensuring my new teammates know how bad I did last game. Game starts and I just mute him and play. Didn't do so bad but we still lost, and here it begins with me as Riven and Brad as Tahm:

Brad: riven Brad: you are fuking Brad: worst player Brad: i've ever seen I am BrokenH8KRU: remember to report tahm Brad: look at your Brad: match history Brad: fukng Brad: toxic our jungler: ah and report tahm for bein toxic Brad: you are fukng Brad: boosted Brad: ebay opponent support: ebay? Brad: you never played positive our jungler: and riven stop buying accounts out of third party sites Brad: fukng Brad: trash I am BrokenH8KRU: Right Brad: ebay I am BrokenH8KRU: Ez Brad: look at your scores opponent support: Is ebay some sort of insult? Brad: no Brad: ebay.com I am BrokenH8KRU: Does it ever occur to you that players may be good at some aspects of the game and worse at others? our jungler: no but he clearly had no idea about macro Brad: YOU ARE FUKNG DİSASTER I am BrokenH8KRU: My teamfighting is bad and I know it, but I'm good elsewhere Brad: WHY YOU ARE TALKİNG I am BrokenH8KRU: doesn't mean I'm boosted our jungler: i wonder what aspect was good from our side Brad: YOU ARE NOT GOOD Brad: YOU ARE FUKNG Brad: BOOSTED Brad left the lobby

So since I reported him the first game, I'm just wondering where the logic behind queueing up a reported player with the reporting players is? I remember a while back that I got some impression that it can't happen, but I was appearantly wrong.

It's diamond, just mute him. If you stopped matching with reported players in diamond you could make your queue time insane.
