Keyboard not working during games

Joe Falcone·3/9/2016, 12:00:39 AM·7 votes·22,233 views

Occasionally when a match starts, I notice when I hit keys, nothing happens. I can move my mouse and buy items, but without being able to use spells I am left useless and I'm forced to disconnect/reconnect, which puts me behind obviously. Sometimes when I reconnect it doesn't fix so I have to close league and log back in, and then reconnect. Any solutions? This has been a problem for a while, but it is happening more frequently now. How do I fix it? item 3070

This has been happening to me for the last few days, where i cant use any skills and my keyboard doesnt work, but i can still move with right click. When this happens to me, i tab out of the game and refresh the desktop, then go back to LoL, and it works fine! hope this helped!

Same thing here, but tabbing out and in does NOT fix it. Unplayable when this happens. There needs to be a REFRESH keyboard in game to help reconnect whatever is wrong.

I can hit enter and type and all the keys work, but when trying to attack none of the QWER work.... WTH is going on.

This has been happening to me - incredibly frustrating!! Updated client, latest Mac OS, plugged in magic keyboard, Razer mouse plugged in.

I found that if you Alt+Tab in and out of the game it will give you back keyboard use, if only temporarily.

Almost feels like there is another background process pulling the keyboard input sporadically. Really frustrating.

Same here, QWER won't work suddenly, have to ALT+Tab out and in again.

I'm having the same problem right now. i can type QWER easy, my mouse clicks, so I don't know why the fuck its not working in game. I just lost URF because of fucking keyboard issues. I'm not happy about it.

i have the SAME EXACT problem and it's so frustrating...I don't know what else to do! I've tried leaving the game and closing it all over again and sometimes it will work and sometimes it will not!
