So for 3 weeks now, daily reoccurring ping spikes to 500 flat ping has been occurring... at first you see everyone moving around you, then just the "attempting to reconnect". You have to exit and reconnect client, which puts you really behind- even if you were winning beforehand after several occurances in the same game it's unlikely you'll even be close to anybody like a support. Besides the loss/ lp loss/ getting banned, the worst thing in my opinion is trying to explain to your team that even though you were winning on your own, you didn't decide to run into their tower autoattacking them, or tabbed out, then ragequit client and reconnected- that it wasn't your fault, you don't know why this happens to you and nobody else in the game... I've been on the boards every day, I've noticed others experiencing this and then I almost cried when riot posted that they are doing this migration thing and that its going to take months or years- that Im gonna experience this for months or years.... Im done, I really love this game but you guys really really don't give a shit since its only a small percentage of us.

PLEASE RIOT WE NEED A SOLUTION!!! This is so unprofessional to completely ignore your customers.

It's not just you. This has been happening to me and two of my friends since the 4.17 patch. I've made multiple threads about it and gotten no response whatsoever. It's to the point where I've actively tried to get a game with a Riot member just so they will address this. It's hard NOT to be negative when you've been ignored for so long.

If you took so long to reconnect it put you behind your support then you should really consider upgrading your toaster.

I haven't had any attempting to reconnect issues, but my teamates sure have (especially last game, literally everybody was dcing and reconnecting). I do however still get the absolutely annoying ping spikes every game (100% nothing is wrong with my internet, otherwise other games would have ping spikes too) at least 2-3 at minimum and it goes up to 2k ping and can last even a entire minute.

This happens to me, too! My two friends don't get this, but it happens to me EVERY game. My ping spikes, and it usually just ends badly. Is fixing this actually going to take a freaking load of months and possibly years??
