CLIENT bug stuck in champ select, can't enter game

Twice today I have entered a ranked game, got stuck on the champion select screen, and couldn't see whether the game began or not. The first time I actually was able to click a champion, although I didn't see them get selected. At that point I got a "retrieving data from server" message, and did not see any more activity in the queue. I don't have screencaps of this sadly, but I was worried that the client had registered my choosing a champion and that the game was starting, so I closed out of the client in the hopes of reconnecting. When I got back in I found out I had dodged and I had a 30 min timer before I could get back in and most likely some LP loss.

I was stuck with this screen and I restarted my computer, so I'm hoping that I didn't lose more LP or gain a timer. Here is another screencap showing how long I was stuck on that page: http://i.imgur.com/cG8e4QJ.jpg

The steps to recreate this are easy.

  1. Login to the client. This is especially likely to happen if the first time you try to log in it says "Logging In" for a half a minute or so before logging you in, if you can log in at all. Case and point.
  2. Join matchmaking for a ranked game.
  3. Accept a match. Once I'm in champion select is when the bug begins for me.

Am I the only one whose client is behaving erratically after 4.18?

The second paragraph should begin with "The second time I joined a ranked game, I was stuck with this screen..."
