GAMEBREAKING - Takes forever to get into champ select

TL;DR : Client won't join champ select until 30-40 seconds have passed.

I have the problem since the patch. I'm using the new client.

Whenever I accept a game and get in champ select, the client freezes on the default page without loading into champ select for up to 40seconds. This is really concerning since we already have a limited amount of time in champ select, for exemple in AR URF, we have 60 seconds to reroll and pick runes and masteries.

While with that new lag, I only get 20 seconds, my client doesn't load before that.

Here's what it looks like

Same problem here, but it only "lags" for 10 seconds or so, still annoying.

Found the solution to the black screen before entering champ select. Its number of friends. If your friends list is huge it causes lag in new client. i deleted about a hundred and now it only takes like 5 seconds.

I also have that problem

Also it takes around 3 minutes to the new client to be loaded after the end of the game it's pretty annoying too

I keep having this problem, but its not freezing. I can hear champion select happening but my screen is black. Then the timer runs out, I lose LP and get locked out like I dodged. Gamebreaking. http://imgur.com/8nCi4lN

Same here. I saw some threads that were dating back to like 2 years ago so I thought it was on my side , but this post and many others prove otherwise.

Even though I only get like 10 secs it's still really annoying and I'm looking for a fix.

Same things happening to me, i get about 20s. Since patch 7.4. From the people I asked, it seems to be a minority of the playerbase.

same problem, the more I play, the worse it gets.

Now I'm trying full client repair.
