When you're in ranked with ~70 ping but still lag

Thanks to this amazing experience, I was flamed and reported in my first ranked game ever in Silver 1 >.>

I would like to ask what kind of lag is this. My ping is normal and not high, and I test my internet speed which is also perfectly as usual. I did get two bugsplat though, one after I disconnected and reconnected (it happened on my loading screen when I reached 100%), the other is after I restarted the client and reconnected to the game (still happened in my loading screen).

After the defeat I jumped into a custom, but things are still normal.

I don't know if I should queue up for a normal/ranked anymore since this can happen again...

Seems like other players also experience the same issue. Maybe this is related to the server maintenance Riot did a few hours ago?

Same problem. It would be nice if someone from Riot would communicate some status about this problem. The game is completely unplayable right now.

Can't remember the last time the ping display was actually accurate

Same problem right now... Apparently it has to do with Comcast servers and their routing to the Riot servers. This is the second ranked game today that has had this happen and I'm really frustrated that I didn't get a loss forgiven or anything like that because of it.
