Trouble fetching information for this player (Error: 5C)

Daddy FeedLord··12 votes·7,760 views

Just logged on today to play some solo queue but my client is only letting me play blind pick. The full message says "Trouble fetching information for this player (Error: 5C). Affected players should quit and log back in if this persists." I've logged in and out a few times now and it still doesn't work, what do I do. Is there anything I can do aside from restarting my router?

This appears to be a issue with a lot of people, the blind pick game i am in right now everyone has the same issue, we all just decided to play blind because no draft

ppl, last time, this was because the ips were flagged for spam/ddos by cloudflare (twitch prime + rito = v xdd).. if you can, reset your ip somehow (restarting the router can do the trick.. sometimes).. i think there were a few cmd commands but i don't know them sr xd

Can't Connect (Error 5C).

yet if you want to play ranked right away, this is a temp solution:

EDIT: Ok, I found a temporary fix. You can download program called Hotspot Shield (Free VPN), and run it when you are in the client screen. When you get in to the lobby, you can turn off your VPN, so it doesn't drain your MB. You will be able to play a game without issues, but if you restart your client you'll have to do everything over again.

Looks like EUW had the same problem 2 months ago. The post said to turn your router off and back on.
