[Crash]: loading screen client crash 2nd night in a row.

On the mac updated client, after successfully going through champion select, the client closes out while the game itself starts up and [this] pops up for 1 second. my friends tell me that I load up to ~60% each time, but never pass that by much. next game crashes and client opens back up with no issue to the [reconnect screen] and this [bugspalt]

attempting reconnecting loops this over repeatedly. restarting the computer helped once, but only that one time. I've even tried the full repair and got no results. for some weird reason, I was able to get into a few coop vs ai games, but not a custom game. I've looked at my connectivity and had no issues with other online games in the meantime, I have plenty of disk space and memory space, in some i was using curse client at the same time, but in others it wasn't even open. no other applications were open. this is a client-game bad interaction as far as I can tell. another note is that the client icon was a generic icon instead of the new round league icon, and the game icon switched between the generic application icon, the round league icon, and the square league icon.

here's a rundown of what I've done, if you need clarification, let me know.

last night: 3/6/17 Taric: crash occurs, restarted client, nothing. legacy client, nothing. restarted computer, had some success, made a comeback in game. Poppy: another crash, restarted client, nothing. restarted computer twice, nothing either time. check connection, fine. friends were able to pull through. feelsbadman. go play another game online without troubles. "its not me, its the client."

next morning: 3/7/17 Kalista coop vs ai, no issues. skeptical but hopeful, decide to practice morde and see if I just got lucky. Mordekaiser: coop vs ai, no issues either. think huh, must have fixed it. oh was I wrong.

this evening back from work: 3/7/17 Kalista: crash occurs. took screenshots between 3 reconnect attempts as seen. decided to try the full repair to see if that was the issue. friends remade before I got back, decided to test out a custom so I wouldn't inconvenience them. Kalista: get through champ select at a custom game.

EXACT. SAME. CRASH.

decide to come here, post my two cents. #IMissMyFriends.

EDIT 1: 3/8/17

Happened again in a custom game. same thing happened to a friend on a pc. its not system specific it seems.

Did this start two nights ago? I have had the same problem (on a Mac also) starting two nights ago, and I think I've figured out that it happens when I have a voice call open in curse. If curse is open by itself without a call going, I can load into a game just fine. If curse has an open call (even with just myself), then I don't load in and can't reconnect (getting bugsplats). Also, when I was in a game and then called someone on curse in the middle, league crashed.

I've tested this with the practice tool and it seems consistent there at least (crashing exactly when a curse call is open). I've been able to play when I use other voice programs. I suspect it happened after curse updated two nights ago, actually.

Let me know if you are able to reproduce the same behavior, though it seems maybe you also sometimes crash when nothing else is open...

I'm not sure how to solve it, but I'm just making everyone use discord for now!
