I've seen this posted quite a few times, so I decided to see if I could help. I read that you just have to hit cancel and re-log in until it lets you in the game without going into the waiting queue. It has worked for all of my friends and I, so please try it if you want. Hope you all get in as quickly as possible.
Poshriel1 votesI just launched the game while the queue was up and the little thing that says league is running in another window thing popped up. Then I hit the ok button.
Th3 Professor1 votesDid that work? I am sure there are a few ways to get it, I am just suggesting the one that worked for all of my friends and I.
Phantasm X1 votes+1 Was JUST going to post this exact thing. As soon as you see it say position 1 wait time 1, hit cancel, log in again, Saw the suggestion and worked for me.
Th3 Professor1 votesYou don't even have to wait for position 1. If you just keep resetting the queue, eventually you will just get in.
TyRamos1 votesYo thanks, let me log in after doing this.
Th3 Professor1 votesNo problem. Just trying to help out the community.
MalaceX1 votesThanks. I'm going to give this a try. I've been trying for over 3 hours.
Th3 Professor1 votesIt should work. I saw a lot of people struggling, so I just posted a whole thing to help.
SammyDayspring1 votesI got in, but every game had at least 1 dc on my team, usually 2. I'm giving up for the night. I hope Riot fixes this. They deleted my early topic about connection issues that people were having.
