TFT freezes during game since patch 9.22

Aeolith·11/6/2019, 9:23:48 PM·13 votes·2,859 views

Since patch 9.22 I have played about 5 games of TFT and 3 times the game froze out of nowhere (i think twice in the planning phase and once during a round). Granted, I do have a potato PC, but the game never froze like this before, ever. Not during TFT, nor during ARAM. I even put all the graphics settings to the lowest possible and the freeze still happens. It's not even a short, few seconds freeze either. Even after a few minutes the game was still frozen, and I had to restart my PC, as task manager or other methods wouldn't close the game. Not sure if this is truly a bug, or the new set is more resource taxing and my potato PC can't handle it. Just thought I should report this, if it turns out it's an actual issue.

EDIT: I played my first game of ARAM since the new patch.... got the same freeze issue 6:44 minutes into the game.... so it's not just TFT....

I am having the same issue: I have some games on TFT and SR where I experience no freezes and others I do, and with these freezes, I cant move my mouse. I have never experienced a freeze twice in the same game.

A faster way I have seen to get rid of the freeze is to press ctrl+alt+delete, sign out from your pc, login again, and lauch league.

Same here..first happened while playing TFT and then later on on few ranked games. Only way to get my laptop to normal was restarting it..the frozen screen would just stay literally forever.

I’m experiencing the same issue. I have a potato laptop, so I figured it couldn’t handle the new updates :(

Same thing happened to me. Cursor still moves, which seems odd.

Same here. I was looking for help and I found some old comments. They said something about program that helps with sound but, it's the reason why game freezes. I dknt reccomend you trying it cuz it's very old. Maybe we should just wait for Riot.

This has also happened to me on TFT and summoner's rift. The only thing that works is the cursor. Hopefully someone helps us soon.
