The game will fully freeze for a few seconds whenever some specific audio cues play. Currently assumed to cause this problem are:
- Magician ult sound after stealing Pocket's Affliction (sometimes)
- Yamato ult invuln sound effect overlaid on top of other ult's effects (sometimes)
- Guardian activation sound whenever that particular Guardian activates for the first time during a match (VERY common)
Here's an example of Yamato ult causing it:

I'm assuming it's audio because it feels like it's related to audio based on the timing this usually happens but I honestly have no proof and no reliable way to recreate it. Pls investigate pls fix :waga:
