So as you might have noticed, today has something of a theme. Blizzard’s Battle.net and Riot’s League of Legends services are both down after a hacker group’s DDOS assault took them out of service.
The news follows similiar attacks on both EA’s Origin service and the Steam store.
DERP, the group that claimed responsibility for the Origin situation, also admitted attacking Battle.net and League of Legends.

We’ll keep you updated with the latest on this story as it happens. Hopefully there will be some internet still open by the end of the day.
