Matchmaking Changes
The initial load time into a match no longer counts against a player's abandon timer

Queue times should now be significantly faster when dealing with large numbers of placement and recently-placed players in queue
Moved the Competitive MMR change notification so it no longer overlaps your rank
Fixed continuing to receive the prompt to rejoin a match after you have been dropped from said match
Fixed a case where players would receive a rank change in matches that dissolved due to abandon
