They can't really call out an ISP in their status update when it's a bunch of random server hubs in the middle of different states scattered halfway across the country. There have been some official forum/reddit posts with more information about it that Riot participated in. All Riot can do about the bad hubs is the same thing they did last time it happened, tell the hubs to fix their shit. As far as I remember none of the hubs were even in California, much less Riots own ISP.

Edit: The DDoS attack last night is literally the first time in... weeks, at least (maybe longer) that I've had any lag that wasn't on my end, again exclusively playing nights, at random times, anywhere from 1-3 games in a row. That's why I was suggesting you look at some of the fixes people have talked about or at LEAST traceroute yourself to Riot's servers, make sure it's something on their end in the first place.

DDoS from Lizard Squad, same as last night. Prior to LoL they took down most of NCSoft today, along with EveOnline. If you want to watch it in action when it's happening go tohttp://map.ipviking.com/#. Let it run for a bit, then hover over Attack Targets, United States. Notice the huge fucking blob in SoCal.

Riot did something between yesterday & today, which is why the game wasn't completely offline.

That's because there's no one IN Canada retards like that want to mess up :p It really is a federal crime to DDoS like this, but it's damn near impossible to track down. Riot just getting targeted cause they're huge, basically, like most of the random DDoS attack targets.
 
not another 50 min+ game again please and that was a very Dignitas typical way to lose a game

also, goddammit Wildturtle you don't use your ult there to get a passive proc, it locks you into that animation for too long

Has been a very fun series. but good god, TSM's baron play has been pathetic - the only thing keeping DIG in any of these games.

He had in on wayyyyyyyy longer than that delay, I think he just fucked up his presses. It's same delay as Mundo's W or any of those other "toggle" skills.

So is this game just unplayable now or what? I've been trying to get back into it hopping on to try out the new team builder.. i've decayed a shit ton since I last played. Everytime I get on Riot's server are absolute dogshit, tonight my ping is flawless no problem finding a game joining a game but as soon as I get IN the game the lag is crazy minion health bars aren't updating for like a full second after dmg is applied like the next tower shot will be in the air before the first one's dmg is shown.. etc.

I've only played a handful of games in the last week and every single one i've lost has been 'Loss prevented'. What a joke.

Some dudes are ddos'ing major online platforms. They just killed Hearthstone a few minutes ago. Dota2 and EVE took it in the butt earlier this week as well.

I assume CLG is about to curbstomp Curse, but I am really hoping for the Curse upset for the lols.

I think anything can happen TBH as they have had so much time to prepare for each other but I also believe that CLG made a mistake going to Korea.

And the lols win out.

What even happened to CLG. Sweet merciful heavens.
They tried to shortcut building a team by recruiting a player because of his nationality all the while ignoring the fact that they *can't actually talk to him*. That team doesn't have a leader. In the pregame interview, Doublelift said "We have to outright out-play them instead of understanding what they are trying to do and then adapting to that in the next games." Seriously, he said that. I'm glad they lost.

The trip to Korea boggles the mind. That is something you do after you actually make worlds.

Read that and was like Damn, Who is Andy Dinh. Then I saw it was Reginald. Then I shook my head and laughed and moved on.
