League-of-legends – Why do the minions suddenly get faster

league-of-legends

Sometimes, when I'm clearing minion waves and moving to the next tower, the minions suddenly run significantly faster out of nowhere, as if something sped them up. Only thing is, I have no sort of passive or aura that would make them do such a thing.

Is there a reason for this occurring, or am I the only one who has seen this occur?

Since nobody put this in an answer yet... and I have come to the same conclusion.

Periodically minions will 'appear' to move really quickly without any sort of buff assistance. This is because your game has become slightly out of sync and it is trying to quickly sync up the minion positions. You will notice this less with a more stable connection.
