So I was excited to try out my new Dragon build and this was the screen I got...

I figured what the hell, might as well stay and see what I can do. So I announced that my screen was jacked up, I should be an easy kill and somehow I managed to follow and find red square markers (enemy targets), lock onto targets and hopefully did some damange and not mess up my teammates. We won and I didnt die

Monkie out :)

I logged out and back in and it did it again, I'll shut the app down and try again, very frustrating...

Logging out and back in does nothing. You need to restart the whole client to fix.

Had a match where my screen froze mid-combat and then went totally black for about 30 seconds. Audio played the entire time and it happened when I was getting shot at pretty heavily.

How I managed to survive until the the visuals returned is anybody's guess.

If that happens, you can Ctrl-alt-del, then hit Escape, and it will come back.

Sounds about right. I tried several combinations of alt-tab/ctrl-alt-delete. I think though I had to cycle through it a couple times for it to work.

Don't worry, some day we'll come full circle and your screen will look like this:
