What happens when League of Legends goes down?

Login server failures

Players unable to log in, stuck on the loading screen, or receiving authentication errors are the most common sign of a League outage.

Matchmaking and queue issues

Long queue times, dodge errors, or champion select crashes indicate degraded matchmaking servers across affected regions.

In-game disconnects

Sudden disconnects mid-match, reconnect loops, or high latency spikes can stem from Riot server instability or regional routing issues.

Store and crafting unavailable

The in-game store, Hextech Crafting, or loot systems may become inaccessible during partial outages affecting Riot's backend services.

How do I troubleshoot League of Legends issues?

1
Check your region's server status
League of Legends runs separate servers per region (NA, EUW, EUNE, etc.). Confirm your specific region is affected before assuming a global outage.
2
Restart the League client
Close the game entirely via Task Manager (Windows) or Force Quit (Mac), then relaunch. Client bugs can mimic server-side issues.
3
Flush your DNS cache
Run "ipconfig /flushdns" on Windows or "sudo dscacheutil -flushcache" on Mac to resolve DNS-related connection errors to Riot servers.
4
Repair the game installation
Use the League client's built-in repair tool to fix corrupted files that cause crashes or login failures unrelated to server status.
5
Try a different network
Switch to a mobile hotspot or different WiFi to rule out ISP-level routing issues between your location and Riot's servers.

What can I do during a League of Legends outage?

Play a custom game or bot match

If ranked queues are down but the servers are partially online, custom games or bot matches may still be accessible.

Try Teamfight Tactics or Legends of Runeterra

Riot's other games run on different infrastructure. If LoL is down, TFT or other Riot titles may still be available.

Note any LP loss from mid-game disconnects

Screenshot evidence of disconnect times and report to Riot support for LP restoration if the outage caused unfair losses.

Frequently asked questions about League of Legends status

Is League of Legends down right now?

Check status.riotgames.com and API Status Check for independent monitoring. If both show incidents on your region's servers, League of Legends is likely down for many players.

Why can't I log in to League of Legends?

Login failures can indicate a server outage, client bug, or account issue. Check Riot's server status page for your region before assuming your account is affected.

Will I lose LP if League of Legends disconnects mid-game?

Riot may restore LP lost during verified server outages. Contact Riot Support with evidence of the disconnect and reference the incident from the status page.

Why is my ping so high in League of Legends?

High ping can result from server-side routing issues, ISP congestion, or local network problems. Check if other players in your region report similar issues before troubleshooting locally.

League servers are region-specific. Check status.riotgames.com and select your region (NA, EUW, EUNE, etc.) to see if the issue is isolated or widespread.
