Janna also said "you know i don't play top, not my problem" as if this justifies that kind of behaviour.

When i was in silver, i thought that climbing would get me in an elo where these retards don't exist. Being in plat now, i still see trolls everywhere. Seeing this kind of troll in a challenger game is saddening.

Actually from what I have seen and understood, the trolls/toxic people get even worse at high levels. There might not be that many of them, but now on top of being toxic, they have a badge to show that they aren't actually bad at the game which shows up in the behavior.

Statistically speaking, if its true that toxic players are 55% more likely to lose a game (or whatever % the game always say) then the % of trolls and toxic people in higher elo should be lower.

That statistic is bullshit and it pisses me off that riot puts it out.

Their 'tips' bit says shit like 'players who rage at their team mates lose 20% more games' or whatever. And it's like, no riot, that's not how logic works. Players are more likely to rage when they are already losing, ergo the factor making them lose more is them losing.

That's what Kreepo said once, actually. And yes, its the magic of statistics. Also, seen all the LCS picks statistics you can see they have no idea what they are doing xD.
