This one time we did an all AP champions match and the enemy team all built armor items and no MR whatsoever. We won the match.

Well BoRK isn't good on everyone, even though its pretty useful in a wide range of situations.
I find that it's become less of a hard counter to "oh god theyre stacking so much health" and is used as more of a good balance between sustain and damage, plus the usefulness of the active.
Also, I honestly don't think Ranked has any more trolls than regular games. I find that being positive in team select and the like helps out a lot, just stuff like saying hi or joking around, and especially being helpful in planning team comp or whatever. If you start out the game like that they're less likely to be angry later. When I have a bad team its usually because someone D/Cs (and it happens a lot more often than I'd like, but whatever).

I feel like I've grown some sort of internal Mute button. I almost never actually mute anyone, I have a weird morbid curiosity as to just how much of a jerk they are.

Depends on the situation, if you need tankiness get the mallet, if your damage, get the triforce, new movespeed is probably silly on wukong.

The point where you're a bruiser?
That you often have to initiate and be in the middle of the fight all the time too?

Try this thought exercise:
When you get your Phage built, and when you are starting to have the cheddar to buy more items, stop for a moment and consider the situation. How many kills and how many deaths do you have? If you have no deaths, you are probably safe to buy more damage (triforce) to get more kills. If you have 10 deaths, you should probably buy some tankiness (frozen mallet) to try to stay alive.
A large part of being good at league is adjusting your build on the go. Like for example, as an adc if you have 4 offensive items and the enemy has talon and akali and you don't get a single autoattack off in fights before you die, it might be worth it to get a warmogs or whatever tank item is popular these days.

ablu you know that phage doesn't build into frozen mallet anymore right?
I'm only saying that since you used phage as an example
There should be a report option just for using the term "KS".

I auto-report anyone who says "gg noobs" or "gg easy" at the end.
Also, I've just had a string of bad games lately. The other day I was actually playing terribly, and yesterday my games were full of jerks. Even in ARAMs. Grr.
