What do I about players like these?

Okay, so I'm new to LoL (like I haven't even reached 25+ games) but sometimes that one player who just blames the team for losing (calling us or just me bot, feed, loser, "hope you get banned soon") has to say all that crap about other people. Is there a system for people like that? Or do I just have to "suck it up"? And sometimes it is my fault because, well, I'm new and I don't know my champion that well (but I do go and train for a couple rounds with the champions I do have so I can get better), but the player does NOT have to call me a "fucking loser at this game" or "you're a bot, I can tell cuz you suck", or "I hope you get banned soon" because that makes me (and other people who get the same treatment) in a bad mood. So to the point--How should I react to these kinds of comments and what do I do? _I know there will probably be comments like "LMAO it probably is because you do suck" or trolls like that but I am grateful to those who actually come here to help me. Also, I'm not trying to feel superior to anybody; I admit I do get angry while gaming, but that doesn't mean players should vent their anger on others by bringing them down. Bringing people down is only possible if you're below them. _

You can build up your mental fortitude by ignoring their comments. Or you can mute them(optimal if their spamming)

Yeah, in the post-game lobby, if you mouse over a player's screenname on the post-game scoreboard, one of the icons that should show up is a red exclamation point. Clicking on that will open a prompt to report the player for misbehavior.

Click on the applicable categories (Negative Attitude for defeatism and constant complaining, Verbal Abuse for flaming and insults, etc.), add in a note if you feel you can offer more precise information about their behavior (particularly useful for reports against trolls/intentional feeders), click "OK", and the IFS will review their behavior and punish them accordingly.

Sorry that you have to deal with those people, but hopefully you deal with less and less of them as time goes on. If someone starts getting on your nerves, though, just remember; mute, report, and move on.
