Splatoon 2 players are experiencing a rather nasty glitch right now. When playing League Battle, the game can completely crash. It seems to happen if you look at your previous stats, and if you have more than nine play records/are playing in team and pair subsections.
Nintendo is at least aware of the situation, and is working on a fix. We should be seeing another patch for Splatoon 2 in the near future.
