About Riot Games (League of Legends, Valorant) problems

Riot Games problems can affect sign-in through the Riot Client, matchmaking, a client that will not load or voice chat in League of Legends and Valorant. Check the Riot Games status page first, then restart the Riot Client and check that your firewall allows it. During game updates, the client may need to finish a patch before sign-in works.

Official information

Our check and Riot Games (League of Legends, Valorant)'s own status page can disagree. We test from one location and read only the homepage response.

Typical Riot Games (League of Legends, Valorant) problems

An editorial list of typical problems, not based on live user reports.

  • Riot Client does not sign in If the Riot Client cannot sign in while other sites work, a firewall or security program may block its connection, so allow the client and retry. Guide: ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT
  • Matchmaking or game servers unavailable When matchmaking fails in League of Legends or Valorant, compare your region and game on the Riot Games status page before changing your setup. Guide: 503 Service Unavailable
  • Client keeps reconnecting A Riot Client that keeps reconnecting can be affected by an unstable network or a proxy, so try a wired connection or another network. Guide: ERR_CONNECTION_RESET
  • Voice chat does not work Riot voice chat needs microphone permission and the right input device in the game settings, so check both before assuming a server problem.
  • Account website sign-in loops If the Riot account website keeps returning to the login page, delete the cookies for riotgames.com only and sign in again. Guide: ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS

General fixes: Gaming

  1. Check the game and the platform Online play can depend on the game's own servers and on the platform, such as PlayStation Network, Xbox or Steam. Check both where a status page exists.
  2. Restart the console and router Turn the console or PC and the router off, wait briefly and turn them on again. This renews the network connection.
  3. Run the network test Consoles and launchers have a built-in connection test that shows your NAT type. A strict NAT can block multiplayer even when the internet works.
  4. Let updates finish Games and launchers can require an update before you can sign in. Let downloads and patches finish before you try to play.
