[CLIENT] forced to re-patch mid game

This morning I patched the game (a prerequisite for getting into champ select I believe), then proceeded to go through champ select (ranked) - and immediately after the lobby ended and the game began, I got a 'failure to connect' error followed by the client closing. This happens once every few months and I can usually solve it by restarting the client in admin mode. However this time, it forced me to patch AGAIN before letting me reconnect to my game which had already started. We ended up losing badly for several reasons but I'd like to think we'd have had a chance if I wasn't forced to patch an already patched game.

Same, no joke, I just reinstalled the game because the update took too long, I'm probably gonna get flamed for taking so damn long to relogg. rip LP.

The patch is not being applied properly. I restarted my PC, launched the client, only to find it "calculating differences" (even though i had previously relaunched the client several times this didn't pop up until i restarted my comp). After like 5 mins or so, it jumped to "Applying the patches". After that I was able to reconnect, and found the enemy team already taking our base turrets. I didn't get a leave, but might be reported though.

I was in a game 150 stacks on draven, just about to kill vayne at 5 minute mark. League crashes. I log back into league and it says patching and i cant reconnect. every time i try reconnect it just says patching, now i'll get afk ban for something i cant change because rito want me to patch mid game? absolute madness man
