Failed to find opponent in EASHL

The game searches for minutes then finally says "Failed to find opponent" every time. So the game is unplayable for me. What am I supposed to do. I've done every basic troubleshooting step -- uninstalled/reinstalled the game, restarted my router, etc.

  • This garbage is still happening. I Try searching for a 3’s drop in. Starts searching...nothing happens. Searching, searching, searching. Nothing. All the other world of chel modes work fine, and almost instantly.

    Hey everyone,

    Nobody like to sit at a matchmaking screen forever and I completely understand the frustration that's coming out of this. There are some networking factors that could be causing this though and I've provided some steps below that might help.

    Can you let me know if disabling IPv6 in your router settings has any positive effect on getting you into a game?
