Client Requested Disconnect bug?

Can someone explain what this is? Every once in a while, me or a friend randomly get this message which then boots us to the login screen on the Overwatch browser. It simply says ‘Client Requested Disconnect’. Theres nothing that triggers it and it started happening only recently… maybe at the start of the anniversary event.

I’ve got the message before when I was:

  • in a deathmatch between queues waiting for a game
  • afk in queue
  • looking at my profile

It doesn’t happen often but there doesnt seem to be anything that triggers it. I just want it to stop happening… im worried it will happen during a competitive match. Its happened to my friends too so i dont think its just me
