7 black dots gets stuck on my screen

Nylén·1/14/2018, 6:48:44 AM·27 votes·8,758 views

So ive only encountered this when im playing normal/flex but thats because the only times I play that is when my internet is bad, so when my ping goes up, sometimes 7 (and always 7) black dots gets stuck somewhere on my screen. It seems to be random cause ive gotten this alot now and its never in the same place.they are always in a row horizontaly but the space and size of the dots have varied a bit. If someone got the same issue or know what the problem is (other than my internet) please let me know. ^^

Got the same problem. I'm using Geforce gtx 1080 ti by the way. Randomly horizontal lines of black dots appear on the screen. Had up to 3 of them last game.

It seems that its a bug from League itself, as it happened quite often to me and other 4 peers each with great graphic cards, so the problem isn't from our side. Riot please fix it ITS SO ANNOYING!!

Getting the issue on gtx 1070ti , i7 4790k . It happens when I alt+tab too , so freaking annoying , what seems to solve the issue for now is getting a second monitor , that way i don't have to alt tab .

RookPusher1/25/2018, 8:35:49 PM1 votes

Confirming that it happens here as well. No a huge issue but it is happening.

PTTruTH1/25/2018, 9:15:42 PM1 votes

Same issue here. I've thought about reinstalling but considering you're having the same issue I'm not so sure it would end up helping. It started happening after I switched to playing in full screen mode. It only ever happens after I alt-tab a few times.

I'm on a 1080 and 6700K

7700k 1070, same issue everytime I start the game they’re in different spots. 7-8 blacks dots on my screen

Sounds like a graphics-card issue to me, but it's been a LONG time since I've seen anything like that (on old BFG 6800 GT OC that I pushed well beyond its prime). I don't know how tech-savvy you are... are they pixel-sized black dots, or are they like pencil erasure size, or what?

Cascidy2/18/2018, 12:06:35 AM1 votes

I am getting the same issue. Like some of you I thought my monitor had some bad pixels. But in the past 3 months, the dots appeared when my monitor was plugged into 3 separate GPUs.

I finally confirmed the issue was not bad pixels by checking my stream on Twitch - if the dots appeared on stream, I would know for sure that it's not hardware. Low and behold, the dots showed up on stream here's a clip if you want to see

you will see the screen freeze for a moment when I alt-tab to the desktop
when I alt-tab back to the game, you'll see the dots in the middle of my screen -- at 18s the dots appear right on top of my character

The issue seems to happen when I alt-tab while running the game on fullscreen.

It sucks we're experience this glitch but I am happy to know that others are experiencing it too and that it isn't just me.

Me and a few friends have this problem too, and I don't think that this is a graphics card issue. I have a GTX 980 and still see the 7 small dots, and they are also pixel sized.

I just restarted my client, that seemed to fix the problem.
