[CLIENT] I recommend against alt tabbing in full screen mode

It takes a good 30 seconds of black screen before it loads back up, and if you make the mistake of clicking anywhere, it doesn't register in lol and alt tabs LoL again, continuing the infinite black screen.

Border less windowed doesn't do that and you can make it full screen so it is instant.

Yeah, that's what I updated my settings to be. I prefer fullscreen mode for various reasons, but prefer borderless to longer black screen swhen coming back than death timers. :)

The main difference that I prefer is that when you are in full screen and alt tab, league of legends disappears (so if you have browsers up in the back ground if you have a single monitor, it shows the task bar to start apps and such). When you alt tab out of borderless, the client stays up and you can see the game running and such still (but for me a much reduced frame rate) and LoL loses control of the mouse. I'm sure there are other differences, but honestly, just thinking about it with the client still up i can still see what's going on. I have two monitors anyway. I probably don't need full screen.

I'm seeing a similar problem, although I haven't had it be that long at all. Before this patch it was 1 second at the most and after this most recent patch it is now ~3-4 seconds of the black screen and a cursor.

Yeah, it was pretty bad. Evidently I have a potato.
