So i press play on the main launcher and what would be the log in screen opens up.

In the middle it says loading and then at the bottom, there is somekind of circly spinning thing and next to it says Logging into chat service.

It doesn't get out of that state and the log in prompt does not show. Any suggestions?

I'm also have the same problem. I wanted to search for a game but I was worried whether or not it would become an issue with the champion selection.

EDIT: So I can join a game fine, it's just you can't talk with anyone on your team. Also, there's no option anymore to reconnect to chat like there was in the past when I've had this issue during the Champion Selection.

Works now, re-open your client. Just some server lag.
