[GAMEPLAY] macOS Sierra Mouse Bug when Alt-Clicking

On macOS Sierra, often when I Alt+Left Click (to ping), especially if i drag during the ping (for the smart pings), the cursor jumps to the center of the screen. Something similar to this happened in El Capitan but it wasn't as bad or as frequent, just causing me to often ping the wrong smart ping instead of affecting my gameplay. It's much worse now as it moves to the center so it takes me a measurable amount of time to bring my cursor back to where i want it or causing me to miss skills since the cursor is not where i expect it to be.

Steps:

  1. Load game on macOS Sierra
  2. Alt Click or Alt Drag Click to ping/smart ping
  3. Notice the mouse will jump to the center of the screen occasionally

I've linked a video of the cursor jumping back to the center when I ping. There is a point where you'll see the mouse not jumping and that's because I'm not holding alt, this seems to only happen with Alt being down.

Same here...I just downloaded the Mac Sierra and this shit happens. There are times that my cursor will just move unpredictably.

This is so unpleasant, if you are in a fight and you want to ping a target, the mouse will go nuts in a random direction and screw your mechanics.

This is happening to me on macOS Sierra as well! This other thread suggested that it may relate to screen resolution, but I shouldn't have to change to a lower resolution (or a higher one that degrades my performance) just to fix a mouse issue that shouldn't be happening.

Riot, please fix!

I had the same issue on my iMac Retina 5k running macOS Sierra. But I have just tested it on the latest LoL patch and macOS Sierra v10.12.2, everything seems to be fine. No more jumping to the middle of the screen summoner 4.

Glad to know im not alone. Last post was months ago. Is this still a universal issue? I have tried re-binding my command keys and still no juice.

The issue is still not resolved. I am really curious if Riot ever will read these kind of "reports"
