Black screen after accepting for a game?

I was on my third game of my promos and accepted a queue and right when I was transferred to the champ select my entire client went black and i could not see anything except the buttons in the top right. I'm a little upset because it said that I dodged and i accumulated a queue dodge timer and I lost my promos when i literally could not click on anything. I have never experienced anything like this prior to now. IF this is a bug then I would like it to be fixed as soon as possible.

There is reason to believe this is associated to your friend list. I was told of a potential temp workaround to constantly minimize my friend list before going into a game... and possibly making sure OFFLINE people aren't visible. Right after I did that, it seemed to have helped greatly.

Hopefully RIOT will fix this soon, as there were so many issues in this latest patch that caused black screens, dodge/LP loss penalties, missing bans, etc.

I found a fix that works for me. Please try this and let me know if it works for you to. Click on the upper right hand corner of your friends list, click "group by mobile." "group by offline." - Once both of those are checked this should resolve any issues with matches loading. I think it has something to do with the size of your friends list and sorting the information.
