Game crashes when attempting to join a server

When I login to minecraft, i try to click a server on the list and when that happens, my game crashes with the following issue attached at the bottom.

Reproduce:

1. Launch the game

2. Click Multiplayer

3. Join the server that is on the latest snapshot version

4. Game should crash

Current workaround that worked:

1. Launch the game

2. Click single player

3. Join a world and leave

4. Click Multiplayer

5. Join the server that is on the latest snapshot version

6. Game shouldnt crash now

It has also been mentioned when joining a test server on spigot: https://www.spigotmc.org/threads/spigot-community-server-1-13.304941

Hope this bug gets fixed in next snapshot.
