Don't open mid in NA

TomiKilla·Feb 23, 2017·1 votes·533 views

After trying 4 games in a row and 'failing to connect to a network server' I was demoted and given 5 low priority 20min que. GJ Riot!!! Dont pay attention to how many times i sat there trying to connect!!!! Anyway I had a game with afk jg at 8min so asked my team to open mid. Unfortunately all 3 remaining reported. No way to know if the afk was banned but I was juts not till March 9th. Thank you riot! I love this game so much.. I guess if ur 4v5 play as long as u can and spend 40+ min try harding and learning from the game which will no doubt be a loss? Unlike me who would rather avoid that. GG

Is this a joke? Your first paragraph describes how you shouldn't be banned for leaving your team in a 4v5, then your second paragraph has you raging at a guy who left you in a 4v5...

So im sat in the school library 2 days ago and successfully que for a game, finish champ select and the loading screen is black. Then a message pops up saying 'failed to connect to league server, check wireless connection'. I panic because this is ranked so I spam retry and yet it doesnt work. Few mins later the game was remade.

Unfortunately I retried this 2 more times for games and faced the same results. I can understand you siding with riot who have provided a free game to be dictators over. But whats wrong with the connection if Im queing for games and its a problem that is popular on google?

The same night when I got home I spent an accumulated 20 X 5 =100mins WAITING ON LOW PRIORITY to ensure the next day I wouldnt continue the suffer. Realising I was demoted in the midst of this failed connection BS.

It really is whatever tbh. Im exhausted my ps4 misses me.

Have you played from that location/computer before? I'd imagine school libraries would have firewalls in place that would block certain traffic. It's possible you were able to get into the client itself, but then the school network blocked traffic to the game servers.

Yea Ive played alot of games there, Ive actually played over 200 total this season so Im guessing it cant be easy to estimate how many reports or whatver deems a ban when u waste so much of ur time. I have just read that riot do not lift or change bans of this nature, which tbf is unsurprising. I cant really wait on a riot employee to make a stupidly vague statement like they always do so i think its GG. The only other ban Ive ever heard of is tyler1 so I would advise fellow summoners to really just not fall in love with this game as deep as I did. It doesnt love you back
