Love playing this Game, but I'm about done.

Most played video game in the world, but still nothing telling us our ping before we enter a game (Which has been asked for for MANY years). I could live with that fact, if I didn't live on the East Coast and get screwed with random ping spikes of over 150 ping. Played 4 games earlier today, all was well, then I try to get on after dinner and have 157 ping minimum, with spikes over 500.

Ever try winning a ranked game with a 2 second delay on all your abilities? And then it gets even more frustrating when your team starts blaming you for the loss and there is NOTHING you can do to correct the issue. You have to mute your entire team, no one will surrender even though you are down 10k gold, and then 1 of your teammates afk's (I'm sure they kept arguing with each other). And then the icing on the cake? No loss forgiven. I get done with this extremely frustrating game, and I lose 15 lp. Funny thing? Same exact thing happened yesterday right before Riot put up the loss forgiven. That is now 2 Ranked games in 2 days that I had 0 control over winning, with 0 warning that my ping was fucked up. Do I have to play an ARAM before EVERY ranked game just to check to see if I'm going to get screwed or not? Seriously either something needs to be done about these Servers, put up Loss Forgiven ON TIME, or I'm moving on to better games.

Ever try creating a custom game to check your ping before queuing ranked? Or maybe a quick 3v3 normal..

Yeah, if your too dumb to check...

I don't know why people blame this on the servers. I have a solid 100mb/s wifi connection on the east coast, and when I get random lag spikes, I almost always get loss prevention.

Oh and BTW, it's not server issues. It's called a backbone and part of it between you and California was out of commission today. That means different, less efficient routing and a higher ping. Still not Riot or their servers. Complain to your ISP, not that they could have done anything. Everyone was having issues but it wasn't Riot.
