Regarding 9.23 Frame Freezes/FPS Drops
Hey there everyone,
I know there have already been several threads on the freezing/FPS issues over the past few patches, but I wanted to throw in a new post because I believe I may have pinpointed the cause for those whose problems began in 9.23.
I played six games today, two of which had NO display issues, and four of which constantly had ~2 second freezes where the game ignored all my inputs.
My friend noticed in our attempts to review the causes that in the two WITHOUT issue, only one dragon was taken. Sure enough, the four bad games involved two or more dragons being taken.
Elemental rift spawns after two dragons are taken. Coincidence? I think not. Hope this helps Riot out when looking for messy code. If you're having the same issue, check your match histories! See if it lines up.
