Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

For some reason, looking at Treant Protector partially freezes my Dota and macOS. The only way for me to recover after is to tab to another app, then force quit dota. After dota is closed the OS is responsive again and I can retry starting Dota

I’ve tried various graphics settings and they didn't seem to influence the result at all

With "freezing" I mean a long-lasting freeze frame. When I tab out I can usually get out of the freeze, but tabbing back to dota freezes it again. After force quitting dota it can launch normally again until I look at treant

Steps for reproducing this issue:

1. Match 7617743781, every time I (Dark Willow) disconnected was because I looked at treant and my game froze
2. Match 7614484043, as far as I remember, the same thing happened here

EDIT: Either it got fixed today or this doesn’t always happen. I’ve played with a treant protector in 7618090325 without crashing
