Butcher Bridge Optimization?

Im sorry if this is the wrong area to post this, I dont often post on the boards.

Today I attempted to play on the Butcher Bridge map and was constantly booted out with bugsplats saying my game had crashed. I would reconnect and within 5 minutes another bugsplat. I do not understand because I played the map perfectly fine on my PBE client and there were no problems. Now thanks to the bugsplats I have a leaverbuster. I just dont get how the map can lose optimization when transferred from PBE to Live.

Yeah, I had this too. It was practically unplayable. Kept getting visual bugs and then got the endless bugsplats. Were you playing on a Mac by any chance? I am, and RIot has historically been pretty poor at developing for Macs so I kind of assume it has something to do with that.

I just now experienced this very same issue while trying to play my first ARAM match on the Butcher's Bridge map. I was booted within the first minute of the game starting and every time I reconnected thereafter. I am also playing on a Mac and I don't usually experience this amount of trouble staying connected to games. I, too, now have leaver buster because of this issue and I don't feel like I can safely play ARAM now. I humbly ask that Riot investigates this issue and an announcement be made when it has been addressed/resolved

Edit: I just tried to play a standard rift 5v5 game and the same thing happened which is strange and it was also happening to another player in my game that was also playing on a mac. Also, both of our shop menus had a weird red highlight discolorment (something I also saw in my ARAM match). I've now had two fail games because of constant disconnects, Riot please address this as I'm sure many other players are experiencing similar issues.

I didn't get any bug splats in like a year at least, but occasionally - especially at the start of the game - my FPS completely tanks.

I have a pretty old monitor, but it's decent regardless. No matter what I play I will always have 75 FPS, but first time I played BB first 5 minutes were completely unplayable.

FPS was going from 75 to 0(i.e. game was freezing) every two seconds for a second.
