Had the same problem. After trying everything else, I just read this, and it worked for me:

Open your Internet Explorer, then Internetoptions -> Advanced and look for the "TLS 1.0" in the list. It needs to be activated (Transport Layer Securty). The Launcher uses the IE Options.

Hope it'll work for you guys too.

"Did not receive a response from the server; retrying". This is what I have been seeing for the past two days; it is frustrating, infuriating, and tiring. Ever since these "new improvements" have come about, I have experienced ok game play, a myriad of lag assaults, inability to connect, crashes, but hey, the new splash arts are looking good though right? This all happened with the release of Azir, and it seems like Shurima is reclaiming everything, including several people's ability to play the game. It wasn't broke before, I didn't have these issues before, so why change it in to something "better" only for it to fall. This is the end of the season, where people are trying to go in for gold+ end of the season rewards, and time is being lost over this, and I know a great deal of people are upset. I never get two days off in a row, so what was I going to do? Throw money at riot for some skins and try to get higher and duo with some people to help them get to gold, instead, I am waiting for a response from the sherlocks over something that doesn't just affect me, but a pretty wide player base. Fix it please Riot, before you go the way of World of Warcraft.

I haven't been able to get on since tuesday. All I get is 'Did not receive a response from server; retrying. (attempt 1-3). I have tried restarting my router, re-installing league, turning off firewall, adding league TO the firewall exceptions, deleting specific 'air' files or whatever from the folder and patching it, the IE trick, turning offline mode on then off again... I've ran out of options to try at this point! D:

My friends who had the same problem time ago said that its useless to do anything.THey all waited till riot fix this thing.So im waiting since yesterday and i will be waiting...

I have the same issue here. From what I have found on the internet, this problem has occurred before, and it seems like it is after a patch every time. All of the old forums also made it sound like waiting is the way to fix this issue (so it can't be fixed on our end). Everything I have tried, including uninstalling, has not worked for me so I am just going to wait for Riot to fix this bug/glitch. Hopefully it gets resolved soon, but it is good to know I am not alone. Upvote the crap out of this so Riot knows this is a major problem, and maybe that will help get this issue fixed faster.

I have been having this same problem for 2 days now, here is everything that I've tried with no change in League's state:

-I have uninstalled and reinstalled LoL -I have reset IE and Google Chrome settings to default -I have repaired LoL Client -I have made sure my clock is on the proper time and date -I have turned my firewall and security settings on and off with no results -I have attempted to run League on a proxy IE server, no results -I made sure IE accepted all certificates from all websites and applications -I removed all foreign applications on my computer that interact with League (LOL Recorder, FRAPS, and deleted all anti-virus and anti-malware programs) -I have Windows 7 and IE 8 (I think, too lazy to check), I've tried installing the latest versions of Windows OS and IE 11 to no avail, #shit comp problems -I've made sure no other instances of League are running in the background and have closed them manually in the Task Manager -IE is NOT in offline mode (and neither is GC, but that doesn't matter)

Anything else I should try before I give up and go play League of Legends 2? Or worse...DOTA 2?

Ok i posted this (for my friends' advice) cuz they just tried everything that riot's admins wrote :)

foxfire10010/16/2014, 11:25:33 PM2 votes

Sounds silly, but to anyone having this issue: try launching INTERNET EXPLORER (not Chrome, not Firefox, etc) and navigating to na.leagueoflegends.com

Internet Explorer keeps its own personal DNS cache, and League of Legend's launcher was built using .NET's internet interface (which is essentially IE with a shell). Therefore if Riot's server's IP address changes (which may happen if they restart the server, say, for a patch) then the DNS cache could become obsolete. Attempting to access the website from the browser will force it to re-query the DNS.

Not 100% guaranteed to fix it, but it's been known to work for some. As a secondary solution, try going to your network settings and changing your primary DNS to 8.8.8.8 and secondary to 8.8.4.4 (Google's DNS servers). If you don't know how to do this, Google it. Sometimes your ISP will keep its own DNS cache that it waits 2 or more days to clear.

OH and funny. I also tried connecting to the league website through IE and It worked.

But I cannot log into my account on the website. This is consistent with the log-in server not responding when trying to log onto the client to play.

Though this was an interesting co-relation

I've been experiencing the same issue since I woke up yesterday (Pretty good turn of fate, at least for my procrastination xD). I've tried everything that they have listed as solutions, but nothing's changed. Would love to be able to play again.

Notice how QUIET Riot has been on this issue. Not even a peep... Ridiculous. How does this game have so many problems?

bigdaddycool3510/16/2014, 4:08:53 PM2 votes

I am getting the same exact thing for the past 2 days now and i'm getting sick of not being able to play since the patch. I use google chrome for my IE and im not going to download interent explorer 11 which is up to date as well so I dont know what is going on.

abstract destiny10/18/2014, 7:01:03 AM1 votes

Hurray, I can finally play again, and after 3 good ranked games in a row, what happens? The damn champion select screen lags me out 3 straight times, causing loss of lp; what the literal **** Riot; this is getting really REALLY aggravating.

How is this not a higher issue by now. I know plenty of people that have been having this issue including me. The steps in the stickied post doesn't work guaranteed. It just sucks not being able to play. Riot plz fix asap.

ChemicalPikachu11/7/2014, 10:51:50 PM1 votes

Same Problem Here. I just used https://www.spotflux.com/ and it worked perfect. It has to be open at the same time as League of Legends but its the only solution for me right now since I have Mac. I read that uninstalling and reinstalling doesn't work so this was my solution to having it work. Let me know how it works for you! ^_^
