I think it's related to the DDoS attack that just happened. Link here

I am as well, I just lost a promo game to game crashing in champ select. I would recommend to not play ranked till they get their crap fixed

No friends list. Cannot connect to chat. I lost 21 lp on a ranked that would not launch.... they did a /remake. Careful playing ranked right now. I'm going to stick to norms until the problem is resolved.

Eastern US here. Having the same problem. I think it is a bug in riots client. I guess the best thing we can do is wait it out. Sorry I couldn't help with this one.

Along with not being able to connect to chat and play with friends, I also can't get into loot or crafting inventory. Although I should have earned a box, it didn't say I did. I'd hate for it to have just glitched me out of a box.

same thing for me, i got a s on lee and it didnt say i got the token ( it was my last token for mastery 6 item 3070 ) when i went to check in my crafting inventory i couldn't get in

invites can still be sent through the traditional way of typing in the username in the invite box. and they will still receive the invite.

how does that?

As of this post there are 8 (eight) separate issues on the service status screen of the forums that Riot is aware of. Eight. I assume all of the new content and modes they've rolled out with worlds had some unexpected conflicts in the code. Thinking it might get worse before it gets better folks. Hold onto your butts.

I find it really sad that so many league players are so toxic about this issue. Yes, I understand it's a big invonvienence, but being rude is not going to fix it faster. Have faith in Riot, I'm sure they are doing the best they can.

This may be an east coast specific issue, anyone having this issue NOT on the east coast?

Same issue here in Ontario Canada. It's not just a small area affected by this issue, it is the whole server.

MërmaidOct 22, 20162 votes

Having this problem from the West coast, on both the Alpha Client and Legacy Client. Definitely a server issue.

Samuel444Oct 22, 20162 votes

Midwest here, got the chat and friends list problems, and weird lag all over the place. The lagging has gotten worse over the last couple weeks in general though for some reason. Get an "unknown error" twice whenever I log in.

Still happening to me here in Ontario. There's a popup saying an unknown error is occurring. Keeps popping up every time I try logging in or doing something in the client. I can't load Hextech Crafting or the Store either. Keeps saying loading failed.

I cant see my crafting inventory either< is this just me
