Stuck in Match-making queue "Waiting for opponent"
I was attempting to queue up for a Competitive Brawl match. The queue was taking a long time to find an opponent, but the "cancel" button was no longer on-screen. I ALT+F4 to force close MTG arena, re-opened MTG arena and was immediately back in the match-making queue with the message "Waiting for opponent" displayed. I force closed the game again waited about 15 minutes, re-opened MTG arena and I was still stuck in the match-making queue.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Start Competitive Brawl matchmaking
2. Alt+F4 to force close MTG arena while in matchmaking queue
3. Relaunch MTG arena
4. Still stuck in matchmaking queue "waiting for opponent"

Same issue.
Uninstall/Reinstall didn't work.
VPN/Disconnected during loading screen and it temporarily let me on the main screen- then at any new loading screen it goes right back into the infinite 'ten friends in bottom left of screen 'matchmaking.
Deleted temp files, restarted, reinstalled. No fix.
Logged out/back in when having the main menu screen available. Same issue remains. -

Same thing. Ranked best of 1. Closing and restarting the program does nothing; opening the game on my phone shows the same message.

Same issue. except i wasn't playing brawl but ranked historic.
Alt-f4'd to force close the game after waiting 5mins for it to find a match.
Now 2 hours later my account still loads start into "waiting for opponent"
Not having access to ANY of the settings menu during loading into a match is poor game design. -

having the same problem
1. ranked standard(pc windows)
2. que took over 10 min no match
3. no cancel button so alt f4 to restart client
4. stuck forever vs non existent opponent
5. quick restarted multiple times, tried logging out and in on different devices, repair/installs change nothing, logging in on two devices doesnt even log you out of the game on one ( so both are trying to find a game at the same time weirdly)
