This is extremely stupid.

I have leaverbuster for 20 mins at the moment and I waited 10 minutes in queue to find a game, I enter it and then right before it starts it says this: "Oof. The Game Failed to Start." Now I have to wait another 20 minutes for leaverbuster plus my queue time to play another game, which I'm not going to do because I don't have enough time. Please make it so if the game crashes you don't have to wait another 20 minutes for leaverbuster anymore.

I'm getting that same error. I wonder what's going on.

just had this happen to me twice as well. not only does it already suck that draft takes so long to get past matchmaking, but to have it fail to start the game till the very end just pisses me off more.

How about you don't leave games and none of these problems will arise, friend.

I've had the same problems 2 times in a row now. It is very annoying, having the 10 mins wasted in Champ Select.

me and another on the same internet have been getting this message. I'm assuming the game didn't really start and I'm just not able to join because I haven't had leave buster... but this is the... third time in a row with the message? I did restart my client the last time. But it's still annoying to be waiting in que/lobby for 15+ minutes.

EDIT: even after restarting my client- and the other person did too- it's still giving me the "oof game failed to start" error message. ALSO- asked in a lobby and apparenlty everybody has either had bug splats or same error message- which gives me hope that the games I've gotten the message haven't actually started. Cuz I'd hate to get leave buster and banned for... nothing.

This is why I always start new patches with ARAM games.
