About to lose advancement series because I'm locked out of the game?

I've played 4 games today. One to get into series, which went well. First game in series we had an afk and lost. Second game they had an afk and we won. Third game was a close match, but we lost. Fourth game, LoL decides to complain about being unable to connect to the server despite me restarting the client multiple times.

I guess, sorry to my team, I'll keep trying because it's about as fun as actually playing?

After ~10 minutes, I hit cancel instead of retry and then reconnected successfully? I dunno, hope it works for you next time.

Always hit cancel then reconnect from that screen, you can usually get in first try that way

sucks you had to figure that out in your promos :c

No kidding.

Got in to face a lvl 8 Riven with 3 kills who was more than happy to spasm on her keyboard w/e I got near the minions. She also harassed our jungler (who had been top) to the point that the game completely fell apart for us, even moreso than it already had.

Oh well...

EDIT: Seems it's not just me. In 2/3 of my last games, allies have had problems connecting. In one, two allies had issues at seperate points in the game.

EDIT: I should have called it quits in the game where I was the only person on my team who connected in the first 30 seconds of the match.

I generally just close the whole LoL thing and start from scratch from the Launcher.

But yeah, it's getting rather annoying to have to fight the damn game to actually start.
