Update | January 15, 12:00 AM PST / 15 January, 9:00 CET : We've deployed a fix for the draft issue and have turned drafting back on.

  • The total number of drafts is currently throttled while we monitor the servers, so at peak load, you may be unable to start drafts. We will update this thread again once we're comfortable with removing the throttle. Update: We've removed throttling.
  • If your draft was one of the original ones that was affected by this issue, we've reset your league to its pre-draft state.
  • Thanks again for your patience while we worked through our solution. Apologies for the inconvenience!

Update | January 14, 10:15 PM PST / 15 January, 07:15 CET : We're continuing to test our fix for the issue. We'll have another update at January 15, 1:00 AM PST / 15 January, 10:00 CET. Drafting is still offline until further notice.

Update | January 14, 5:00 PM PST | 15 January, 02:00 CET : We're continuing to make progress in identifying root causes and testing a proposed fix. We'll have another update at 10:00 PM PST / 15 January, 07:00 CET. Drafting is still offline until further notice.

Update | January 14, 12:00 PM PST | 14 January, 21:00 CET : Thanks again for your patience while we work through this issue. We've made progress in identifying root causes and a proposed fix. We'll have another update at 5:00 PM PST / 15 January, 2:00 CET. Unfortunately, it's still unlikely for drafting to be open before then.

Update | January 14, 5:52 AM PST | 14 January, 14:52 CET : Thanks for your patience while we work through this issue. We're still actively working on a fix. We'll have another update at 12:00 PM PST / 21:00 CET. Unfortunately, it's unlikely for drafting to be open before then.

Update | January 13, 11:05 PM PST | 14 January, 08:05 CET : We're continuing to investigate the issue where players are getting stuck in draft. Unfortunately, we don't have an updated ETA at the moment. Once we have a fix in place, we'll be looking into ways to reset the leagues affected by this issue to the pre-draft state.

Update | January 13, 7:40 PM PST | 14 January, 04:40 CET : We're still investigating the issue where players are getting stuck in draft. We don't have an ETA at this time, but we're hard at work at bringing things back to normal ASAP.

Update | January 13, 4:38 PM PST | 14 January, 01:38 CET : We've temporarily turned off drafting to resolve an issue where some players are getting stuck when the timer reaches 0 on their turn and multiple picks for a single player are made in a row. For those of you who ran into this issue, we're looking into figuring out a way to roll back your leagues to the state it was in pre-draft.

We're also aware of another issue where after creating a league, some players aren't able to share the link to others to join the league.

We'll keep this thread updated as we find out more information and resolve these issues.

Thanks.

Will the draft be re-opened tonight? I have a group of 8 that are just trying to get our League going.

For those of you who are reporting login issues where there's no error message and it keeps prompting to log in, which browser and OS are you using to log in?

Just wanted to throw riot some love. Thank you for making a fantasy aspect to your game. It was a great idea and shows that y'all care about what we (fans and players) want. Keep up the good work and hope y'all get drafting up soon! Thanks guys.

my guess is that it probably wont be up before the end of today... maybe early morning tomorrow, pacific time. but thats just the hopeful guess of an aspiring FLCS champion lol

I tried to swap Link, who was in my Flex spot, for MapleStreet, who I had as an alt. I pulled Link out of Flex and now I cant put anyone or any team into the flex spot. I can pull my ADC out and put MS in there, but I cant get him into flex. I can't even put Link back into flex and he was just there.

The error message says "The exchange would leave your team with an invalid starting roster, with too many players at one position." no matter what I try to put in the slot, which makes no sense since it's the flex slot.

Please help.

Why does fantasy LCS always redirects me to EUNE? im playing in NA, I'd like to be redirected to where i play at -_- and not just auto-sent to EUNE.

Alfin1/14/2015, 11:16:00 PM3 votes

So after another day the draft still won't be up?

WildDwarf1/14/2015, 11:48:49 PM3 votes

ughhh i want to draft sooooooo badly but i cant. Hope the fix comes soon

Led20001/22/2015, 6:08:29 PM3 votes

So with Piglet out and Forgiven locked in as my flex is there no way for me to play an adc this week without dropping piglet? I feel like I should be able to swap around between flex and adc even if the player is locked in. All I want to do is play Forgiven as ADC and someone from my bench as a flex.

Almost 24 hours trying to fix this how is it so hard to fix a small problem I understand the one that happened a few months back but how is this little problem taking as long as a patch to fix?

WaifuLaner1/14/2015, 8:24:35 PM2 votes

Wish it didn't need to go this way, but sadly it does. Just fix it quickly please Amumu

My draft suddenly fixed itself at 1:57 AM EST. It had been stuck at :00 in the 9th round for over a day. I heard the noise and was able to make my next pick, but the final pick was made for me.

I understand that Riot doesn't owe anything to us in this regard, but these updates are quite frustrating. I've been coming back at each posted time to see the same thing. Instead of repeating themselves and letting us know the next time they'll string us along, it'd be nice to get some sort of details on the situation or some idea of how far along the fix is.

Shinjuku Jalter1/15/2015, 10:38:17 AM2 votes

I would like to leave the original teams but there is no option for that, when will it be up in case the drafting hasn't started for those?

ParinoidPanda1/15/2015, 4:10:48 PM2 votes

Thanks for your work fixing this awesome feature. Much appreciated.

Queen Lionheart1/15/2015, 5:50:49 PM2 votes

While I was sleeping, 2 random people were put onto my team and it tried to put a 3rd one on when I booted up my computer, only giving me like 20 seconds to decide... I have no idea what's going on, but I'd really like my team to be reset so I can choose carefully and properly instead of being given a randomised team that I have no control over.

Edit: It's now up to 4 random people, it apparently drafts when I'm not even on the page. What in the world?

AIeksandr1/15/2015, 7:54:49 PM2 votes

Why can't I leave a league even when the draft hasn't started yet?

Edit : I want to leave a league that was reset to his pre-draft state
