Spectate option keeps showing wrong champion being played

When you look at your friends currently in game, it sometimes does not show what champ they are playing, especially if they are ranking. Other times, it shows the wrong champion. Usually if someone is playing Darius or Garen on my friends list, I will spectate their game, only to realize they are actually playing someone like Malphite instead. I've also noticed that sometimes, if a person is playing Darius, it will say they are playing Garen instead. Is this something intentional as part of a new lore or is it just a bug?

I haven't experienced the wrong champ part but I have been seeing alot of my friends playing games without it telling me what champ they're playing as.

This has happened to me on several occasions. For instance, when my friend was playing as Nami, it showed her playing as Heimerdinger (and it continued to show Heimerdinger for other champions, too). Today, same deal, except my friend was playing as Lux and it showed Fizz. This only appears on the sidebar when hovering over their name in my friend's list--if I actually spectate, it loads the correct champion and splash art and all that.
