Am I getting DDOS'd by Riot or what?

I turned on my PC, and turned on the league client and I noticed, that after typing my login info it was taking pretty long ( 20+secs) for my client to load. But it eventually did load up. After that I played a game, and I got 200 ping for some reason. So I did a speedtest ( DURING THAT GAME ) and my results were : 65 MB Download, 70 MB Upload, Ping 3. I tried playing a video in 4K on YT, everything worked fine.

After doing that ( and getting leaver buster cuz I left that game after all the testing and still having 200 ms) I tried some different methods of fixing this problem. So..

  1. Restarting PC did NOT work
  2. Restarting my router did NOT work
  3. I changed my DNS, that did NOT work either.
  4. I checked in my cmd if my ping to EUNE and EUW servers is high, and it is. On both mine and my dad's PC it shows something between 190 and 210 ms.

I have constant 200ms and that's pretty much unplayable.

Is there any possible solution?

Thanks

I see that moslty Slovak players like me and you have this problem. My ping went from 20 to 220 for no reason, it permanently sits there. So its something with servers.

Btw, I tried playing other games ( CSGO ) to see if I'm lagging there and guess what! I have 10ms on all official CSGO servers so idk

No, the league client breaks on nearly every update. Do a full client repair after every update.

Do you even know what is a DDoS?

Distibuted Denial Of Service

  1. it is an illegal offence
  2. your would lose all connection to the internet, not just high ping.

So no, riot is not booting you.
