What is the best way to report TOXIC players?

I know how to report in game but there really is only 3 thing to chose from Inappropriate chat, player tag, and player name. 

Does inappropriate chat report the voice chat, i assume it does both. 

Is there a more direct way through the site or through EA.

I had so many toxic players the last couple days, a little banter is ok or even can be fun for both, and i would never say anything like the stuff i am getting told, i want to share some examples. 

Last round I played, I pinged a hot spot and the person waited a while before dropping. They then went to the hot spot but dropped slow and in circles, landing where 1/2 the people were already fighting, likely dying quickly. I chose to land somewhere nearby instead but close enough to group up, and the person freaked out and asked why. I told them straight up I wasn’t going to slow drop over a hot spot where half the teams had already landed. The guy then started saying he was going to do all kinds of stuff to my family. I had a family member pass less than 24 hrs before this and I just left the game. Something I dont do very often. 

Match before this I had two players, must have been friends. One person was going after boxes I opened only and I said something like come on no need to take everything in the boxes I open, and the person calls me all kinds of names I cannot say on here. Not stuff you call people and not even close to banter. Then i got them punching me in game instead of playing the game. This was more like in game bullying and toxicity via the mic!  

Another match,  and probably toxic friends, so i dont say a single word yet, and when I do talk its like in game stuff, grabbing this evo, I hear someone coming, or some info to help us play. So we get into picking characters and I had Ash picked due to using her prior round but was not even my main and play a lot of characters, person goes 1st and picks Ash and goes HAHAHAH i picked your main what are you going to do, so i put on wraith a character i used to use a lot and 2nd person who picks does the same thing and says the same **bleep** and not i got them both yelling what are you going to do. instantly pressed F to mute them and played and never said a word.

Getting sick of these types of players, seems the more difficult the lobby the more people are like this. Lobbies are taking forever to load too, so waste when this happens. Yeah i mute them all, but then the game never works out.

    This is great thanks a million. Happen again today, dont a say single word, both players yelling at me and land and punch me, all they cared about is punching me and both left. They were mad no one else landed were i landed but i dont know the new map yet and jumped right away, not like i went to the other side of the map. Those types should be banned, takes long enough to queue up! They are sabotaging the game. I am stuck in try hard lobbies and these lobbies are the worst for toxicity. 
    Thanks Again.

    incredible26069​ There is an in-game setting called "communication filter", that you can set to either "friends only" or to "no one", which would block any non-friend's/everyone's text messages and voice chats from reaching you, (this setting will allow you to play every match without having to manually hit the "mute squad" button, but will not prevent your text messages/voice chats from reaching them unless they have the same setting enabled or have you muted as well).

    Note: Anyone you manually unmute will remain unmuted, so if you do unmute someone, just remember that you will have to manually re-mute them on your own later for them to be automatically muted in future matches.

    While the setting won't stop players from ruining matches for you, it would at least make it to where you don't have to hear their toxicity as they sabotage the match, (although there is also an in-game report option for sabotaging as well, which can be found under the middle report option in the same place you would find "abandoned match early", "inactive during match", and "concluding with enemies").
