Placed in low priority queue when i never left anything.

Yung Chickin·Dec 2, 2015·2 votes·520 views

I was sitting in the lobby waiting for a friend to finish his game. My internet disconnected for a second so i restarted league. When i returned my friend had finished his game and when we queued up i had a 20 min pre game ban! I already had a 5 min one, but i was never queued up for anything when my internet gave out, so i should for no reason be placed in an even lower queue.

Pls help, or tell me why im an idiot and did something to deserve it, both work. Thanks

If you are queued with someone with a low priority queue then you have to sit through it too. Are you sure that isn't what happened?

positive. I tried to queue by myself and the same thing.

You have a fizz game yesterday where you are level 10 after 30 minutes. Did you leave that and maybe missed the message about your LPQ?

that is the game i received the 5 min LPQ for. I'm not complaining there, i knew i was going to get it, it was after that that this situation happened. As you can see i haven't played a game after that and i only received a 5 min LPQ for it.

hrm...

So you had a 5 min low priority queue, then DCed while in a lobby(not in a game) and then when you logged back in it was a 20 min low priority queue instead of 5min?

Have you ever had a low priority queue before this?

i few times yes, but they were quite a while ago. I was also under the impression that you went to a 10 min LPQ before the 20?

You normally go 5, 10, 20 but ranked games count more so if you had 5 then left a ranked game you would probably get 20. But that doesn't seem to be the case since the fizz game was only a normal.

I'm wondering if telling you it was 5 min low priority queue was just a display error. They had similar thing a little while ago that was telling perma banned players they were 14 day banned.

You said you had gotten low priority queue a few times. What were the timers on all of those and when were they?

The last one was about a month ago, and im pretty sure it was only a 5. Ive never played any ranked games and ive only AFKd a few time because my parents don't understand how you cant leave an online live game.

The way my game crashed was weird, nothing would load and then a message popped up saying "cannot connect to http server". After that the game froze and i quit out. When i started league back up i couldn't log in because the same message would appear.

After a few tries i was able to log on and i got another LPQ notification but just assumed it was the 5 min one. And that's when i queued up and discovered it was a 20 min.

If you had a low priority queue only about a month ago its unlikley that this one was supposed to be 5 minutes unless you have played 100s of games without leaving since then. My best guess is that you didn't notice how long it said it was. I don't think the crashing actually had anything to do with this.

If you need more than that you can submit a support ticket.

Side note: this is a good post directed towards parents if you think your parents would be at all receptive.

i can promise you that it was a 5 minute, and i can promise that i didn't do anything to deserve a LPQ after that. But thank you fore the help, i appreciate you trying to help me out.

Thanks :)

I suggest opening a ticket then. Something definitely seems off, not sure if im just missing something or there was a mistake. But if you got 2 low priority queues in about a month then they shouldn't have both only been 5 minutes. Especially if there were also other LPQs before that.

Best of luck to you.
