League Crashing multiple times on Mac

League Crashes without warning, it isn't the computer because there isn't a huge spike in FPS, FPS is fine, a constant 60 sometimes, It also isn't my internet since there is no spike of Lag or anything that would look like a Lag issue, proved this because after it crashes, my internet is fine since I could search things up fine. This "Bug" or "Issue" has been bothering me for a while because I've lost games because of it, as an example, I try to poke the Lucian Mid lvl 1 before the minions come out, and then I crash, no warning, nothing at all, I believe that the Client is to blame for this problem, being not as compatible with Mac as Windows is, which is understandable, but I don't think the game should crash every few games almost every day. (League only crashed in-game, so far I have crashed a total 9 times, and lost me 3)

This has been also happening to me as well, except for about 1+ years. Nearly every time I play a match of league, no matter if it's Bots/ARAM/Ranked, I've disconnected at least once and many times a few more times. This has definitely lost me team fights and games and a few notable moments such as when doing baron/dragon and not being able to smite because you magically "crashed" while the internet is still perfectly fine and your ping is stable. I'm glad this isn't just me and I've looked for solution in the internet and nothing really seemed to have worked (except maybe getting a new computer which isn't an option I have). This is also only when I play games such as league.

Except, mine is a Lenovo computer (Windows)

Have you tried playing on borderless or windowed mode? Back when I played on MacOS, if I played on fullscreen mode but accidentally alt-tabbed, then tried reopening the game, it would immediately crash trying to reformat the picture to be fullscreen. It never happened when I had it in windowed or borderless.

Either way, have my upvote. This used to frustrate the hell out of me and there's no excuse for it.

Riot doesn't care. I've sent in tickets and posted about this every month since pre-season. If you have the latest operating system on Mac (high sierra) you are basically rolling the dice every game that your game will crash. A bunch of people upvoted a big reddit thread on this but nothing was done or even commented upon by riot concerning the issue. I've lost maybe 2 dozen games because of this bug this year
