Lags, crashes, and LeaveBuster

I have been playing for less than a month now (Started November 21st. of this year.) and I love the game but if I'm going to be honest, there are some issues that need fixing.

  1. The game has been lagging out like crazy which not only restricts my gameplay but it also hurts the team. I have tried switching from a wireless connection to a wired one and almost everything in between with no luck at all.
  2. Sometimes the game will not even get past the pre-game loading screen. It will either take forever or just crash. Even if the game loads the lag causes it to crash as well.
  3. Because of the previous two issues I have been placed into a Low Priorety Que on multiple occasions because of "AFK" behaviors. Not once have I gone AFK in my matches. It has gotten to the point that now I have to wait 20 minutes before getting a match.

I was told by a fellow player to check my connection through the Lag Report which showed me that I had a bad wifi connection. I did as it recommended but still nothing worked. I am in the process of switching from comcast to a better provider but until that happens I am stuck with this terrible connection and a laggy game.

I am assuming that there is no way for riot to take away those LeaveBuster penelties but they need to fix the system. I know I am not the only one with these issues but to be penelized for issues such as game lag and the game crashing is wrong.

This issue happens to me a lot. It's gotten me losing LP and put into low priority queues, after months of this happening randomly so far there has been no fix. In fact, my last game making this post this occurred: everyone was at 100% in the pre-game loading screen for around five minutes until I tried clicking and the client crashed itself. I tried reconnecting, but then the game had already been remade before I could join back (and I doubt I could've been any help anyway since I'm already ages behind.) Now I'm in low priority queue for 5 games, 20 minutes. Rito?

I doubt this is being caused by my internet nor my computer because it just happens out of nowhere. I've looked at threads dating from a year ago that also have this issue and so far I haven't seen any fixes. I might even make my own thread regarding this issue if this continues.

Yea my advice is find a new game while your still fresh League is fun and all but these crashes arent going away anytime soon, Ive been having them for about 3-4 months now and anytime I ask a rioter anything they just ignore me. If you want a MOBA like league you can try Dota 2, Heroes of the Storm, or Smite. All of them have the same layout as league except they don't have these crashes. Hope this helps best of luck
