That, and more, is on PTR.

INTRODUCING “WHILE YOU WAIT”

Coming with this patch, we will be removing the current “Skirmish” feature that allowed you to spar while waiting to start a game and replacing it with a brand new option called “While You Wait”.

When in queue, players will now be prompted to pick, if they want to, between the following game modes:

Practice Range - Now available to be entered as a group

Skirmish - Spar freely with other players without keeping track of score

Deathmatch - Compete for the top place on the scoreboard

Custom Game - Pick a custom game from the Custom Game Browser or create your own game mode

Note that Custom Game will have to have the new setting “Allow players who are matchmaking” available in order to be selected

All “While You Wait” game modes are optional and can be accessed by a single player or as a group, but only the group leader can decide which mode to pick.
