We should not be having our client crash in almost every game. 3-5 mins into the game, and client crashes. We also invest time and money into the game same as windows users. If your client is not compatible with the Mac os just tell us. This is becoming irritating.
DuskDaUmbreon1 votesI think you're using a seriously out of date OS (or a beyond obsolete computer). Mine runs just fine, with only the rare issue now and then, which generally has more to do with my connection than with my computer.
PapaGreg211 votesI have a 2013 desktop Mac and this happens to me a lot with High Sierra. What Mac are you using and what operating system?
DuskDaUmbreon2 votesMy current one is a 2017 MacBook Pro, running High Sierra. 8GB ram. My only issues are connection-related, except for the rare instances where I get a FPS drop because of a massive number of effects going on at once (Such as if I see a Brand ult with 3+ passive explosions going off, a 7-sphere Syndra ult, and we have a lot of other things going on. Basically: Just the super extreme, rare things that'll slow down pretty much everyone). I do have the rare crash, but it's only every 1/1000 games. I did also use to have large FPS drops if I used my old (2013/14, November) bluetooth headphones, in a Discord call, while in game, although I have no idea if that issue still persists.
My previous one was a 2011 MacBook Pro, and is currently also running High Sierra, with 4GB of RAM (Being used by my brother). His only real issues are when his battery runs low (Which causes the computer to slow down all processes, so that it lasts a bit longer), and connection issues.
If you have non-ping related issues, check to make sure you don't have extra programs running, that you are using 50% or less of your maximum hard drive space (I've found Macs to slow down past that point), and that you have no bluetooth connections. In general, I find it a good idea to keep the bluetooth connection closed when playing League.
If those solutions do not work, reply, and I'll see if I can help you. I'm not a professional, but I've worked with Macs quite a lot informally.

My issue is not even fps drop. I literally bugsplat every game within the first 5 minutes and after that, the rest of the game goes on fine. This started happening after I upgraded to high sierra and patch 8.1 rolled in. I have repaired the client multiple times and still no luck. I have not been able to play ranked games this season because of it as well. I use the 2013 mac air with a 4GB ram. I had no issue prior to patch 7.24b-8.1 rolled in.
DuskDaUmbreon1 votesIntersting. I did have a bugsplat the other day, but that's the only one I can think of...
Might it be a problem with the computer itself? Or something in establishing the connection?

Maybe you should get a computer to play games, seeing as Apple doesn’t think macs fit that description ;)

I think i am just gonna give up league entirely. It's really not worth the stress anymore, especially with the direction they driving the game towards this new season. I am not even looking forward to getting a new gaming computer either just for league with the shit show running at their balance team department right now. I guess I am just going to wait with out for some time until they roll out a patch that fix it.
SugoiSensei1 votesYeah all of my OS is up to date, not sure why there hasnt been much optimization recently for mac users
Az Lusheni Az1 voteslol! jokes on me, I eventually got the 2017 MacBook pro. I guess the earlier models are quite not compatible with the client.
SooperDoocher1 votesso far, i have opened up safari in the background and i keep discord closed, and I don't crash. make sure safari is taking up the whole screen.... no idea why this is working but it is. I'm 12 games deep and no crash. lemme know if this is a fluke or a temp fix
