Why can't I play LoL Ranked?

As League of Legends is a globally popular game with millions of players, many things can go wrong. The most common reason why LoL Ranked mode is disabled is a server problem. Sometimes it can be a technical issue, usually when a new update is implemented. There's also a human error, like when Riot Games was forced to disable ranked mode after they accidently reverted LoL to an older version. In those cases, your LoL username and password are worthless until the server issue is resolved.
