Unable to Join Game

I've just started a ranked game like usual, nothing unusual has happened, but I am currently stuck in the attached screen. https://imgur.com/4muyTUh

I have restarted/closed and opened the client 4 times now. I was at 0 LP when I queued up for this match, I don't mind a random loss, but I'd really like to not get demoted due to a bug.

My internet settings are fine, my client is updated, but no matter how many times I restart, my client will not allow me to join the "Game in Progress".

Update: 2 minutes after writing the above, it appears my team was able to FF@3 minutes. I'm thankful that I wasn't demoted, but still posting just in case.

Well, I lost 20 LP. Lost even more LP than I would lose with a defeat. Happened like 30min ago. Waiting for a loss prevented or I'm uninstalling this

Game is bugged since patch 9.14 this has been happening to most players to get back into game you have to restart your computer completely. you should make it back into game around the 5-10 minute mark GL

Lads I found another way to solve this, but you might still appear 1 or 2 minuites late into the game. So this is my solution step by step, it may not be optimal but it works for me.

  1. Game does not appear.
  2. Open Task Manager
  3. Stop all League processes.
  4. Restart the launcher and log in.

Here many things can happen and you may have to re-do the first steps (Once I had to do this 5 times, and got 2 min into the game but I play top so I got teleport to get faster into the lane), for example:

  1. There might be an error where the game says it could not connect
  2. Game will pull off same shit as the first time
  3. League of Legends (TM) stops working
  4. Game starts normally and you can play.

NORMALLY I get to play after 1st or 2nd route of these steps, hope it will help and save your LP in the future guys. [zombie-nunu-bummed]
