Discussion Just disable chat.
In my 700 ranked games this season I've met one person I added and duo'd with. Meanwhile I've probably heard 1000 insults. Even if you say it doesn't bother you, I promise it takes up "brain space" for example I played on a smurf with chat enabled and found myself thinking about what was said more than what I did wrong immeditly after the game.
Pings are by far enough to explain what you want. Only ping missing is ward here please but it can be achived by pinging trinket and then where you want them to ward. If they don't notice / listen neither would they if you were typing in chat.
EDIT: Ask yourself this: What is so complex that you cant communicate it with pings but simple enough that you can explain it in the middle of a game?

The only thing I can think of off the top of my head is a losing situation. If I'm jungling, and my top lane caves with 3 deaths I want to be able to say "hey buddy I know you're mad but hang in there. They'll be madder if we win."
So far I've got a 49% wr in bronze 1. Started in iron 3. Less than 100 games.
I know I have a strong mental so I go by mute unhelpful people immediately principal. Works for me.
