Seems to be a widespread issue, I'm having it too as well as numerous other players as reported via Reddit & Steam.

Ended up getting me into LP, now after I wait ~20+ minutes to find an LP match there is about a 75% chance that someone will fail to connect to the game and it'll go back to matchmaking.

Exact issue for me too

I cannot connect and I am in LP so I cannot try and do anything else.
