Riot, you have a problem with your servers.

I think that maybe at this point Riot needs to consider doing something to fix their god awful server situation. I recently played a ranked match, hoping to reach promos, Ive been practicing all week, ironing out flaws in my mechanics, positions, etc,... But even so, I was helpless to do anything, not because I lost lane, fed, or anything, I wasn't able to do anything because half the game, I wasn't even able to see. Just champions and creeps standing still. It cost me 3 deaths, and almost 5 minutes of in-game time to try and fix this issue which still isn't fixed. This isn't just a one time issue either, and seeing as I have talked to my ISP multiple times about supposed speed throttling, and it isn't them, as I can play many other games with almost no lag, or ping spikes, with the odd occasion of someone from a different region slowing down everyone. If you aren't going to work on server quality then you need to introduce countermeasures to someone who is being disconnected on your end, because losing 24 LP is a huge piss off when it isn't my or my teammates fault.

TL;DR Riot has really bad servers, and they cost me LP and matches. GG [slayer-jinx-unamused]

i am having issue with comcast right now.. its sad becuase i wanted to play ranked today as i can play it during the weekdays becuase of work

i tried rebooting my router and that fixed it for about 5 min then it came back.

and my LAN has no issues.. its once it goes to to WAN out the router that i start ot get 300-500 ms ping.

and that's even though the Haste VPN i am paying for.. it quite aggravating to not be able to play on the few days off you have

but i know its not riots issue becuase if i try to ping things like "google" i get the same issue. so there isnt jack shit i can do until comcast fixed their shit

Meanwhile, as someone who never has any issues with lag whatsoever, I'm not sure it's a server issues, as opposed to some middleman in the routing

Any game or any system a ethernet cord can be your best friend and stop all that.
