UNABLE TO CONNECT TO SERVER... That's it. I'm done.

I'm done. I've had it. Every single time I come back to this game and pray to whatever higher power exists that Riot have made an attempt to fix this persistent f!#@ing issue, I find it hasn't gone away.

This is the second time I've been slapped with a 5-game, 20 minute queue penalty and lower priority queues because the client decides at whim that it won't connect from the Champion Select to the game itself. All I get is that persistent bloody notification that I can't connect to the server. Yes, I'm disconnected the firewall, used game mode, reinstalled the client, all the fixes in the world don't seem to have any effect.

This isn't to ask for help. This is simply to say I've had it with this game. I can't enjoy it while on tenterhooks every time I queue thinking it might end in another wasted 15 minutes of trying to connect to the game. I'm sick of being penalised for something that is CLEARLY a Riot issue that hundreds or perhaps thousands of players have. I've done nothing wrong but love this game and put up with it's faults. I come back to it again and again and STILL the same issues appear that prevent me from enjoying what should be a long and fruitful relationship to the best MOBA of all time.

I've had enough. I'm sick of being punished for trying to enjoy your game.

Signing off, havehart

There are times where Riot has this sort of problem. When it's happening there are usually a flood of posts about it on here, either people asking for help or just complaining, along with some mention of it by Riot. If you haven't noticed there doesn't seem to be anyone else vocally having this issue right now.

So please tell me why you think this "is CLEARLY a Riot issue that hundreds or perhaps thousands of players have". From what I can tell this is a problem on your end, not theirs.

This issue isn't new. It happens to me as well, albeit much less frequently than is happening to the OP apparently. It is annoying af. You just can't connect to the game. After a remake or after the game ends, you can play normally as if nothing happened. This started happening (for me at least) when rito removed the old client. You can search for this kind of issues in the previous months and I'm pretty sure you will find a lot of posts regarding this and no apparent fix by rito.
