I was in the middle of the most EPIC hook as BLITZ-CRUNK in all of Bronze history, and then this happens!!!! I was micrometers away from getting the game winning pentakill AS BLITZ-CRUNK (which is equivalent to grabbing baron by the throat and dragging his lifeless body down mid lane to exert dominance over my opponent), when all of a sudden.... riots servers crash!!! I don't understand the meaning of this?!?!?! RITO how could you do this to me??? Your wonderful, low ping, extremely friendly game where everyone is so friendly with each other has finally broken my heart for the first time ever!!! I was able to handle the Heimer-DONGLER rework, I even accepted the Tal-WIN (talon) rework with little resistance.... BUT THIS.... this is too much for me to handle....... R.I.P. to my BLITZ-CRUNK penta :'( </3

Dont worry, I am obviously a leaver when most of the team on both ends dont connect...

This just happened to me. Kept on getting a loading error. When my computer finally came too, 4/5 of my team wasn't able to log in and 2/5 of their team never connected. This is the second game that I've encountered this and lost 40 LP. Should be refunded...

It's also happening in norms and ARAMS [zombie-brand-clap]

I got the same penalty queue. they should remove those as this is the server fault not ours

Losing LP in a game where there were 5 afk's due to a problem on Riot's end. Classy stuff.

Faptain Teemô3/13/2017, 11:53:08 AM9 votes

Its okay riot, dont change your server status when your getting DDOSd. Not like were losing promos or anything cause of this. bug has been happening and repeatable for a long time. Why ranked queues are not disabled is beyond me.

I am really getting sick and tired of being wronged when there is a bug

Playboy Yasuo3/13/2017, 11:50:29 AM8 votes

Just got a leaver buster even though no one connected to my game... But great I love waiting 20 minutes to queue, also now I'm ineligible to earn loot yay smh please help with this riot.

Dear Riot,

I get that your game is sick right now. I have to tell you though, getting a leaverbuster for one game, where 2 people from each team DC'd is a slap in the face. Acting as though I didn't try to reconnect the whole time; then to punish me for it? Honest to shit its the most annoying part of this. Couldn't you turn off leaverbuster when you knew that people/you are having connection problems?

I hope your game gets better soon, but afterwards I think a conversation needs to happen about how to better handle these moments.

With love, Cojak

PLEASE!?! As much as I enjoy waiting 20 minutes to queue for 5 games. Would very much appreciate this being fixed, aswell as making me not wait 20 minutes. Also I'm ineligible to earn loot now as well.

I understand things happen and issues arise. The alert that was put out did not alarm players as the severity or the quantity of such issue. So, when the game crashes and tells you to check your connection, you do just that. Then you try again, finding that it is riot's issue. So when you try for an ARAM to see if its fixed an hour later, you come to find out you now have no information regarding the client, you have lost LP and now have a lower priority forced on your account(which might stick with my leaver buster history) . The lack of information, communication and follow-up have been frustrating. Good job on fixing the error.

It got me too. Two games in a row, unable to connect to the match. Now I've been Leaverbustered and have a 10 minute wait for 5 games............. The fresh hell is going on Rito? summoner 1

Faptain Teemô3/13/2017, 11:38:11 AM6 votes

just lost 20 LP, was at 80 lp in Silver 1

Riot better refund that lost match. This is THEIR issue.

LotsOfButtStuff3/13/2017, 3:44:10 PM6 votes

Either stop people from being able to go into games, or stop leave buster for now because its not fair were getting punished for a server problem ...

Cynth3/13/2017, 11:04:29 AM5 votes

Welcome to the world of everyone that was just in a game 5 minutes ago. Enjoy the LP loss.

majindosh3/13/2017, 3:28:55 PM5 votes

They should at least remove the ranked game choice....

NoDiscussion3/14/2017, 6:18:57 AM5 votes

Whats even worse I don't think I see a single Red response on this. At all.

They're not even going to acknowledge it.

Ring Ding Jjong3/13/2017, 11:39:50 AM4 votes

Two games now, fml. Thought it might only be ARAM, but nope...

Billion dollar company, and their game is lagging. Seems like they have everything going in order [slayer-pantheon-thumbs]

Gotta love the low priority queue after being unable to fucking load for 10 game. Basically being punished for their server issues! WOOT!

Witch Charmer3/13/2017, 8:02:59 PM3 votes

Id love some compensation due to my low priority queues this sucks.

Zakt0n3/13/2017, 10:13:26 PM3 votes

10 hours gone for promos that auto-demote you 5 tiers even if you win 8-2 , why have us waste time playing promos ? 100-200 hours gone per year climbing back thru those same tiers again. and now this ...a 20 leave buster that will cost me another couple hours due to a game loading bug !!! it's to the point people with jobs or other hobbies have no chance to advance in this ranked system

MonotonousG3/13/2017, 12:11:56 PM2 votes

This is also happening in blind-pick
