Riot is just a small indie company that can't afford good servers. I understand pbe is small and there normally isn't as many players and therefor the servers don't need to be as good there but on the live servers you would think they have good servers already to handle it but apparently not.
Update: took exactly 15 minutes to get a game, absolutely ridiculous
Rate Limiting is valid and necessary.
Yep. Probably just a short term thing though at least, especially with NA open and TFT not yet on other servers. Amongst other things contributing we're seeing some folks playing on NA who normally play elsewhere which will assumedly stop once TFT's fully rolled out.
