Stuck in "Rejoin" match loop

Account currently stuck in an “Attempt to Rejoin” loop. I tried to boot into a quick match and did not load at all. It appeared that no one in the game had any progress on their load bar. I restarted my game and was prompted to rejoin (which I clicked). Once back in the loading screen, everyone elses bars were full but mine was stuck at 0. It has been 45 minutes since I tried to initially boot into the game so surely it has ended but I am continually prompted to rejoin the game that has completed. I have restarted my computer, uninstalled and reinstalled the game, scan and repaired the files. My account is effectively locked in this state and I need assistance.

EDIT

As-of the next morning, booting into the game results in landing on the main menu, freeing me from my prison! However this bug still exists as it impacted me for several hours, therefore, leaving this post up. This being said, if you are impacted by this, perhaps letting enough time pass is all you can/need do.

i had this bug and had to uninistall the game then reinstall

I have this bug right now. Game never loaded, after 20 minutes on the loading screen I restarted, now stuck in a loop of rejoining a match that doesn’t exist

Got that problem many times (1st part), I only faced that 2nd part in a particual brawl (OW weelchair map)

Usually, I simply fail to rejoin the game after restart so I dont have that stuck issue.

But what is working for me rn is using a vpn whenever I get the stuck in loading screen or I get the random infinite “reconnecting” in the middle of game when internet is completely fine.

Seems like it’s a problem with the routing somewhere form where I live and makes the game unplayable in the long run, but using vpn solved that completely. I hope it’s not illegal to do so. Cuz it’s my only option
