My graphics quality is set to Ultra, which has always worked for the game. Has anyone tried it with a lower setting to get Stadium to move more smoothly? I know Blizzard says they’re going to work on it, but who knows when that will be.
You are not alone.
Stadium is terribly optimized. You could try lowering it to medium to get more juice.

Oof. That was painful to read.
This. How something so stuttery and jank could make it’s way straight into a competitive mode. The telemetry alone is egregious. Game is trying to mine all kinds of play data. The customer is the beta test apparently.
Stadium IS terribly optimized, but the issue that the person in your quote describes is definitely more than just Stadium. That’s unoptimized stadium amplifying and exacerbating some issue that already existed with their computer.
Sounds terribly unfun. I wish them the best in resolving it.
Update: Turning the graphics quality from Ultra to Medium helped, somewhat.
Round One: Stable. No lag. Finally playable.
Round Two: Lag when exiting the armory. Once the game started, the lag went away.
Round Three: Stable. No lag.
Round Four: Lag when exiting the armory, lag when leaving spawn room, and off and on lag throughout the rest of the match. Then we lost, lol.
Something about even numbers?
It’s a start. At least I have a shot at going after the season rewards for Stadium now. I wonder what would happen if I went further down to Low. Kinda don’t want to as I’ve been used to playing on Ultra, but I can always switch back.
