Anyone else experiencing this weird glitch post-patch?

So after the latest patch (Icebox map patch) I started noticing that every time I die, the instant I die the game freezes for like 0.1 seconds and then the death animation plays. This was never the case prior to the patch. At this point I don't know if it's actually affecting my 1on1 fights but it's really annoying and I don't get why its doing this post-patch. I tested it in the lobby with some friends and it's not doing it there, only in online (competitive/unrated) games.
Everything just freezes for like 0.1 seconds, maybe less, but it's enough that I notice it and I'm not sure that it is triggered as soon as I die or when I get hit in the head, either way have any of you noticed this?

Here are two clips I managed to get showing what I'm talking about.
