The Good, The Bad, and the League: 1/17 - 1/23

RiotRiot Morgageddon·Jan 24, 2019·2 votes·60,799 views

Our team wanted to be a bit more transparent around server issues, as well as other information that the NA playerbase may want to hear about. This is 100% a work in progress, so feedback around what’s here, or what you might want to see, is highly appreciated!

Your weekly dose of server problem-os, NA League news, and other!

Twitch Rivals just ended, Pre-Season is officially over tomorrow, LCS returns this weekend, and the Season 2019 opening cinematic created a whole bunch of screenshots (someone made a screenshot for every frame in the song...wut).

Follow-Ups:

Wrong Season Border still ongoing
Thanks to everyone who played games with us

**Server Stuff: **

Crafted skins not currently in the store require a relog to use (1/18, ongoing) A change to an old db structure causes a desync between player inventories when new items are crafted. Players can then craft skins, but the Client will think they don’t have the new skin until the Player relogs. Until this can be fixed, players may need to relog to see skins they crafted that aren’t currently available in the store (legacy/limited skins).

**Game Stuff: **

Wrong season borders showing in profile (1/8, ongoing) Well, last season ended and we pushed out the banners for last season, but it’s not the correct banner and can even show the wrong division as well. To fix it, we’ll wait for the next full patch to deploy with 9.2.

Player Support Trend:

Looks like there’s a slightly higher number than normal of log-in issues. Check here for info about how to ensure you can log in before contacting Player Support!

9.2 is live though, appears the fix didn't work?

Which game mode are you seeing this in? Normals, Ranked, etc?

ScarlahJan 25, 20191 votes

For me, my border shows in Ranked but not ARAM.

KüramaJan 29, 20192 votes

Not affected personally but others are. According to SapMagic the fix will be in 9.3 or 9.4.

New jungle has done the opposite of what was intended. You guys claumed that you wanted less ganks because early level gankers we too prominent. Getting rid of xp in the jungle does the exact opposite it makes ganking essential if a player is not playing a good early level ganker that player can no longer scale and carry the game like before. If you are to keep this change to the jungle you need to seveerly decrease the time it takes for camps to respawn because this makes every farm jungler or jungler that can only gank with lvl 6 useless. I dont understand why every time a new season comes jungle gets another nerf. 2 years from now it feels like jungle is going to be a walking support because the camps are so useless to take.

I love winning ranked games and losing LP. So amazing how that works. You win and yet you still lose.. Great Job creating this ranked season... Bravo

Kelb4nJan 26, 20191 votes

You've played a single Ranked game this season. The LP that you have is your starting LP. There was nothing to go down from.

Sorry to say that but now ur matchmaking is like trash. I cannot win all day by playing with some **, even though I am carrying. May u plz fix this? I am done.

I don't really like the idea of having a different rank for each role, I feel like a good player should be able to play in each role on the same level. Playing 40 placement matches is just too much and it really upset me upon release. Also if there is a system that ranks you by role, then I feel like you shouldn't be ranked by win losses but rather by how you play overall in that role.

This new ranked system is completely biased to the extent, that you'll have individual ranked for every lane. In my opinion, is that League of Legends is already bad as it is. No need to try to make it fresh again and again.

Just let it be for a couple of years instead of making such high leaps without testing the issues first!

Kelb4nJan 26, 20191 votes

They've tested positional matchmaking for 6 months + in normal drafts. After that, they now started the deployment on 2 major servers, namely NA and KR, with a working emergency plan to roll back everything as soon as issues arise. Additionally, the option to queue fill without feeding on the positions that you aren't as good in has the potential to lower overall queue times significantly. ADDITIONALLY, for people who just keep playing their one main role, the new system allows for even faster climbing. So stop complaining and just enjoy the service that Riot gives you for free, or stop playing if you don't enjoy the game.

Was looking forward to old ranked. New version of ranked is everywhere. No game has constant. Teams seem to be unbalanced and i feel like im going no where if im playing a different roll since i now am ranked in 3 different positions. I may just become a 1 trick so i can only play 1 roll so its kinda like the old ranked system.

TheeRickJamesJan 25, 20191 votes

How do you expect normal people who have to work a normal job to be able to have enough time to play placements in every single role. As well as having to do 2 separate ques. And now since its this way theres no way ill be able to play any of my other accts. I feel that riot will be the next blizzard and everyone will hate the game and eventually people will play those scrub games like smite and dota. And there you guys will be to rot at the bottom of every game ever created. Even lower than fallout 76 god rest its soul. I hope that whoever thought of this idea will promptly be canned because of their lack of a brain.

I still have silver border in every other queue outside of solo/duo which has my PLATINUM border. Give me my PLATINUM border in every queue, this issue has not been fixed. Not hard.

Hmm, we won't be able to help unless we saw the games this happened in. this is certainly something that Player Support will be able to help out since they will be able to look into your account, your games, and your status with this to see if something broke on our end of if there is something else going on.

Hello riot games ,, i have an idea to make league of legends fair fights ,, just one thing players before joining the game they pick there lanes and some of it goes auto fill okay then make people must play one adc and one support champion not allowing him to pick mage at bot lane and like yasuo only for mid and top not allowing him to get a smite and pick champions jungle because he picked mid lane from the beggining so thats the point to make league of legends great ; because srsly it's not funny to see karthus and veigar at botlane thats not fair

Can you fix your program breaking down? I am in the middle of a match and I get a warning 20 minutes in that my client (As stated by my computer) a 3rd party program has broken down. It kicks me out and I have to restart and re-log into the game. Maybe if you worked more on fixing the real issues and not worry so much about account transfers. People can chill in a server for a bit longer while you fix the REAL issues please.

That's no good. I would give Player Support a chance to look into your issue. From there we will be able to identify if the problem is on our end.

I can add to this as well, every time the game freezes it literally kicks the game back 2 patches and rejects the new updates. Then just recently I ran the hextech repair and it still froze on me. Then after I restarted my computer, because I cannot close the game any other way, I boot back up and then it reverted back to pre-season patch and displayed the Terms of Use as if I just reinstalled the game.

When was the last time you fresh installed the game?

Is your hard drive running out of space? It shouldn't forget the installs you have on it, are you perhaps on a network deep freeze computer?

Baron RedwolfeJan 31, 20191 votes

Right after it started happening, I finally got to see the message it was telling me that I had an overlay, steaming, or some other 3rd party enhancement running in which I do not. I run leagues as the only thing I have going, Chrome is open but that is for music. Discord's overlay is off because it lagged the game. Nothing else is running but Leagues and every time after 28 minutes it freezes and gives me that message. I don't understand why it's being broken. I submitted a ticket but it's been labeled as on hold for some reason.

Couch CommandoJan 31, 20191 votes

I am sorry to read that, but I do see that someone was finally able to get in touch with you and I hope everything works out so that you can get back into game with no issues!
