Ekko, The Boy Who Broke Teambuilder

Genghis Christ·5/29/2015, 1:17:12 AM·112 votes·12,760 views

My friend and I were playing in teambuilder and while in teambuilder he was choosing people to fill positions on the team (Standard Teambuilder). While in the builder we got the opportunity to choose an Ekko Ekko jungle** AND** an Ekko Ekko support AT THE SAME TIME. I REPEAT. SAME TIME . So we could not pass up this opportunity and took it. Once we did this our whole team said "READY" to prepare for our new adventure. Upon doing this however the game said here was an error and kick my friend and I out (and assumingly our other teammates). After this happened it told us to shut off our client and restart the game, which we both did. When we did this it gave us to reconnect to the game as if we had left a game in progress. After we both saw this we tried clicking on "Reconnect", but it would not let us reconnect. We both have restarted the game multiple times and still cannot do anything other than hopelessly click "reconnect". Please Rito help us fix this issue so me and my friend can play our league.

P.S. You might have to take Ekko out of Teambuilder. I know he can go back in time and stuff but like in Back to the Future if you meet yourself TERRIBLE things can happen.

Edit #1: If you have had this issue please comment and bump (Like) this post quickly.

Edit #2: Another one of my friends got on while I was sitting in the "Reconnect" screen and it says that I am available, but it won't allow him to invite me to a game.

Edit #3: Me and my friend can now play league after about 12 hours with no AFK warning or anything. Regardless this should still be looked at.

~~Edit #4: Would it be "an Ekko" or "a Ekko". I understand if you are to think "duh its obviously going to be 'an Ekko'". However if you think about it Ekko is a name (aka proper noun) and the actual word "Echo" is different (Not a proper noun) . Someone tell me because now my brain hurts. summoner 3 ~~

Side Note: That login bug amirite?

Just waitabout an hour, the server will drop you, then you should be able to log in and play. Sorry about that wasting your time, happened to me with a heparin top/jungle double and that's what I did.

Looks like you encountered a minor Anomaly. Don't let your paradox get too high, now. It gets more dangerous from here on out.

I laughed harder than I should have at this. I mean, yeah, that was crappy as hell that that happened to you both but the title is just amusing to me.

I remember this happened to me before, but in Solo Queue Normal pick. Me and another random dude picked Rumble AT THE SAME TIME. So we were both like "hmm". But we went along with it and locked in our pick. We were both excited about what will happen if the game starts.

Unfortunately, we got kicked out of the champion select screen as soon as the timer was over and we had to start another queue (similar to OP's situation), but I didn't get any error or reconnect options. The champion select queue just kicked everyone out LOL

Happened to me twice now after "DCing" from a match that I couldn't reconnect but had to. Funnily enaugh, these matches stopped existing the moment I dc'd according to lolskill.net, op.gg, lolnexus.com and others. As if the servers just dropped matches and got everyone's client stuck.

First time happened a few days before Ekko release.

The answer is "an". In any case, if the next word starts with a vowel, you use an. Everything else you've said is completely irrelevant to your question, and I presume this is why your brain hurts; or a deadly tumor.

BUTT WAT DOE EYE NO?!

It's an Ekko. Anything that sounds like a vowel should have an, and not a. And even if it's a name, hes still a thing and not an actual person. Sorry Ekko you're not important enuff

And this is what happens when a programmer says "this'll never happen, right?"
