[CRASH] Cannot load the game after passing through loading screen, but only if you pick Yasuo

Game freezes and crashes when I pick Yasuo. No other characters. It goes through champ select and loading screen, but as soon as the game starts the game freezes, the fountain is empty and I can't even ctrl+alt+delete to exit client.

As a Yasuo main, this makes me sad. Not been able to play him in the past games even in normals.

1. Pick Yasuo
2. Get to loading screen
3. Game freezes at fountain. 10/10 recreated....for me anyways. Used all skins. NOT a skin issue. Possible reason: I canceled a steam download at the time it was installing something...But I doubt that could have been the reason.

Apparently somebody also had the same issue in a discussion board and someone 'solved'it, but I doubt that is the true way of fixing the bug. Link: http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/bug-report/enqRkaEd-yasuo-bug
