Riot you are getting really really shitty as a company i dont understand how you can fuck up so bad.

I used to love this game and this company but these past 30 days have been hell.

I was in a ranked game just now when all of my team dced. even me. then i just hit close game because it was taking to long and low and behold game lost with no loss prevention.

No general discussion to complain to so.. here ya go.

FIX THE FUCKING SERVERS!!!!!! I KEEP LOSING WHEN ITS NOT EVEN MY FAULT!

And how is it your fault when your ISP fails? Or when electricity goes out?

There already have been many posts about lags and DDoS and so on. Stop bitching and start googling, please.

Just a sum of what you might find out:

Most of the lag is caused by malicious traffic over Riot's ISP
They are seeking for ways to get more connection relays or direct connection to the network.

Hello good sir, you are the lucky winner to a link: http://community.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/na-support/sYINqsTK-answers-for-anyone-who-is-wondering-about-the-recent-connectivity-issues-na

This happens to actually tell you what's going on, why it's a problem, how it's not just Riot getting hurt and what Riot is doing about it. I did research so you don't have to. Now take a deep breath, realize that raging at a problem you have no clue about is a bad idea, and read the linked post thoroughly. No one likes someone who complains, it does nothing productive and just pisses more people off. Good day.

ACTUALLY, after a bit of digging it was the same issue of ISP failure but this time it was technical and not due to an attack. Same end result, but Riot changed the network pathing in about 20 min to resolve the problem. That's still a critical amount of game time, but I think that's impressive? I'm not a network agent so.....eh.

The time when LCS began, the servers went down the drain. RITO PLS!!

The fact that this has been going on for a month now is ridiculous. I know riot is more focused on the LCS atm but when games, especially ranked matches, are ending in ways that are completely not your fault (Attempting to Reconnect), it discourages players from returning to League. There is no point in even playing a match at this point since you're better off spectating a featured match, in which the players are also lagging.

Actually they've been working on it, it just doesn't happen immediately, especially when it's a problem on a national scale. Don't believe me? http://forums.na.leagueoflegends.com/board/showthread.php?p=45393267#post45393267

Noone implied this was your fault. But then, neither it's Riots. If you were as informed as you're offensive you'd know that.
I'll repeat it for you one more time: It's not a server problem. It's network problem.
