I see there's another thread on this, but I'll add this as well for visibility.

ISSUE: Yasuo crashes the game at the start. Tested with default skin and PROJECT: Yasuo, same result for both.

REPRODUCIBILITY: Play Yasuo in SR Blind Pick, Team Builder, Ranked, or a Custom game. Have not seen on Howling Abyss yet so can't confirm its an issue there. EDIT: Crash happens on Abyss as well

FREQUENCY: 100%

Specs: Intel Core i5 3.40GHz Windows 7 64-bit, SP1 16GB RAM GeForce GTX 660 - driver version 344.75

Same happens to me - has been going on ~ 1 week. I don't crash if other players are using Yasuo, I only crash if I pick him. Seems to be the champion itself (tried on both vanilla and Project Yasuo skin with same result).

Crashes immediately after loading screen; killing the process and restarting the full LoL client and loading again seems to work fine (but normally by then it's 2mins ingame and you've lost your lane :P ).

Same here... however I also get a suspicion that the summoner spells flash and/or ignite on Yasuo is a contributor to this problem.

I tested Yasuo with TP and ghost in a custom game and he seems to load normally.

If you all can submit a support ticket with the r3d game logs Riot would be able to fix this much more quickly.

I'm also getting freezes when loading in on Yasuo. I've gotten them on Howling Abyss (Legend of the Poro King) and Summoner's Rift (Team Builder and Blind Pick), always with the High Noon skin.

I'm able to kill the game, relaunch and reload in without hassle, but after having to be late to enough matches, I've stopped playing Yasuo for the time being.

Same is happening to me ive done it over 10 times running with different summoner spells/ runes/ masteries/ skins and it fails for me every time. Ive repaired and re installed and nothing has changed.

Jeerus Sama12/25/2014, 6:38:43 PM1 votes

The same thing happens to me all the time but only when there are other players in the game. When I play Custom-Mode and I don't add any bots the game doesn't crash. I have already contacted the support. Hopefully, Riot can do something against this!

I just got yasuo 2 or 3 days ago and this happens to me as well :( and i have to turn off my computer then sign back in and on to play the game and everyone in game would already be 2-4 lvls behind and it made it hard for me when i fought against a karma and rumble.

Been happening with me for about 3 weeks that I've noticed.
Playing on Howling Abyss (ARAM and Snowdown). Crashes upon loading. Rebooting computer will allow a relog and reconnect which works - but then you gotta come back from behind. 100% crash rate.

Crashes every time I use ignite but when I substituted it for teleport it didn't crash

Gator Nuggets12/29/2014, 12:10:06 AM1 votes

Exact same thing happens to me. Immediately after the loading screen the game crashes and I have to force shutdown my computer, but I'm able to get back into the game (although pretty far behind) after restarting. Fortunately it only happens when I pick Yasuo so I'm able to avoid it.

Having the same problem. Thankfully I have a solid state drive so I can reboot my computer before minions spawn. Please Rito, fix this ASAP.

Same thing here, I believe this has to do with nVidia drivers because I noticed all GeForce cards here.

I have the exact same problem, has been happening since the new Rift came out. Only happens when I play Yasuo, it's fine with any other champion. Happens with or without the High Noon skin, 100% crash rate. Have only confirmed the crash rate on the Rift.

The only thing I have found out to work is as soon as the loading screen happens, restart your computer. if your computer isnt crazy slow, you can start up league and reconnect in time for minions to spawn.

Wish something else could be done about this though, Yasuo is the only champ I like to play!

it happens to me and yas is one of my favorite champs ive tested it and its happend three times in a row now

Riot please fix it or tell us how to

I've been having this problem as well, and I don't have a way to stop the crash. However, I do have a way to get back in faster. If you alt tab out when the game freezes, you can bring up the LoL client from the taskbar and close it. This will close the game client immediately and give you the bugsplat. You can then relog right back in and get into game. I have a pretty fast computer so I can always get back into game before :45 or so. Hopefully that helps.

i have the solution guys ! i had the same problem till i disabled the HUD animation! now everything is perfect

same thing happens to be.

Same issue, project: yasuo skin in particular

intel i5 @ 3.4 16GB DDR 3 GTX 660ti Windows 8.1 64-bit

all drivers up to date

Bare minimum, Yasuo NEEDS to be disabled.

edit: off the wall idea, it seems like everytime they introduce a new champion with knockup synergy, this bug comes back. First Azir broke yasuo, now Rek'sai. Just a tinfoil hat conspiracy. It something causing crashes when it loads champion interaction?

It happens to me aswell, just one time it didn't crash, but after that it keeps crashing everytime, with every skin, and it makes me mad. I have to use ctrl+alt+supr and it says League of legends (not responding) I have to end the process, and restart LoL, and then it works fine.
