The game feels really low in fps despite the fps counter's value saying otherwise

It started a couple patches ago, it wasn't like this. While this is kind of hard to explain, but since recently the in-game counter would count the frame rate to a consistent of 80-90 fps for me, but it FEELS like I'm playing with 20 fps, if you get what I mean.

This makes the game quite unenjoyable to play, as it seriously obliterates my experience with the painfully choppy frame rate despite the good value given by the counter.

I don't know what's wrong, but it sure isn't my eyes and brains magically getting "faster" (as in, my biological spec being so high even 80-90 fps feels too "slow") when I play League. Please fix this asap.

Thanks.

It's possible that you need to complete a clean reinstallation of League in order to resolve the issue. Grab Riot's Hextech Repair Tool and check both the box for 'Reinstall' and 'Clean Uninstall', then hit the Start button. This will wipe all files associated with League to ensure corruption doesn't carry over, then reinstalls the game.

Nah, the game's optimization has gone to shit. Don't listen to the BS "repair client" excuses.

Turn on vsync if it isnt already, with 60 fps itll look better than 80 because of your monitors and how their refresh rate works

Same, some games i have unexplainae stuttering, like randomly 10-5 fps dips that feel much worse. All my friends and I also got 10+ to our ping but that's a whole other issue i have no idea what happened.

the only thing is to push for a solution on this forum, and maybe rioters will stop to give us the usual stupid solutions that never work
