Client is absolutely unusable

sasho141·6/22/2017, 3:32:14 PM·23 votes·1,622 views

So I have been experiencing a lot of issues with the League of Legends client lately. Some of them include the client being really slow and not responding, i can't use the loot function and its very hard to join a game. The Accept/Decline screen pops up very slow and sometimes even if I click accept it doesn't get me into champion select. If I manage to get into champion select i am never able to pick a hero and just dodge. I was suspended for "declining" too many games and had to wait 30 minutes and when i am not able to pick a champion i also wait a few minutes. (I have tried using the repair function, restarting both my PC and the client but nothing works) [zombie-brand-mindblown]

Same problem just happened to me today.

You can't start a game. (when you click "confirm" it just stucks and after a while this pops up "Something unexpected happened while trying to create your lobby."
Loot is unavailable, I'm not sure for the store.
Authenticating and loading are 3/ 4x slower.
And maybe not the last but after the 6th/ 7th restart the client opened in the left corner of my desktop.. it's just a black screen that I can't even close. That's for now P.S. I tried full repair. ~~Idk maybe full reinstall will work.~~

I have the same bug today. I got banned for 45 minutes. I tried to fix the game with the tool, then i uninstalled it and downloaded it again - same.

This new client makes me want to tear my hair out. It takes so long for anything to show in the end-game screen, often just saying "Game is still in progress...." for ten minutes before finally allowing me to play again or exit. Sometimes I can't even open Loot or Store until I relaunch the client. I've had times in champ select where I literally can't see the champion list to ban or pick and I get penalized for 'dodging'. Sometimes it'll freeze at 30 seconds and then unfreeze at 3 and I have to pick a champion as quick as possible. Chat is slow, selecting roles in draft is slow, accepting games and club invites is slow. I vastly prefer the old client where this barely if ever happened to me.

Its been really laggy for me too, once a game ends it takes me 2-3minutes to load the scoreboard.

This same thing happened to me... TWICE in a row in Ranked resulting in lost LP and 30 minute ban. I put up a report as well but I honestly don't know if they'll do anything about it... especially the roll back of LP.

How you gonna run a limited time event with the client being broken after event release.

NOTE: LOW SPEC mode, with net at 16MBPS speed.

Guys if you read the BEST REPORT THE BUG you will see this happen before 2 years then Riot fix it. But now the same problem i thing RIOT will fix it or GO DELETE THIS GAME and go live in the real live

Same issue on NA.

Tried going into CMD to flush DNS.
Changed DNS settings
Checked modem and router settings
Permitted League in firewall
Repaired client three times
Did complete uninstall and re-install of the game
Enabled low-spec mode just in case.

Nothing has been able to fix this issue and I can't play any games without risking dodging or getting leaverbuster (I don't want to risk getting banned or losing LP). Has been an issue for almost FOUR days now and not one word from Riot about what we can do to fix this issue or if they're working on a fix.

At this point I may just be forced to quit LoL unwillingly just because I can't play the game anymore which makes me sad :(

PLEASE, if a Rioter reads this PLEASE get someone to fix this issue for us.

Aye, I have it too... it looks like the new missions are playing tricks with some people's clients. Im hoping Riot release a bug fix asap.

Maybe you all share a common piece of hardware and that's somehow contributing to the issue?

I had the same issue .. I was trying to get into a lobby , Confirm button goes black and then nothing happens I waited for like several minutes and then it popped a message saying something about the lobby and that it cant be created After that , I could actually create one .. Still laggy but at least i can join a game now .. So just make a lobby and wait untill the message
