Same problem. Don't know why yet because I was able to join a game at first but after the game I got this problem.

PandlienJun 6, 20191 votes

It's a global problem. Restarting the game or computer helps.

Client Error code: 18

Soey LamoyeJun 6, 20191 votes

Its working by restarting the client few times ? not rly . This problem fixed (definitely on my pc!) took arround 20 minutes of my time, i think RIOT games have enought resources to do the same right ? Buy more skins :D, maybe they will fix it !
