[EU] Game keeps resetting after 30 seconds 'due to an unexpected server error

It's happened about 12 times in a row. Pretty entertaining but not great for actually playing. Imagine groundhog day but its the first 30 seconds of volskaya.

A few of us have stayed in the server for a good few rounds, just seeing how long they can keep this up.

Edit: left and queued up again, only to be put back into volskaya hell.

Edit 2: Nearly managed to cap both points, but server died at the last second :(

Edit 3: Through the magic of friendship, we won a game! Now we're in Paris!

    Hey everyone, sorry for the hassle. There was a server in a bad state, it's cleaned up now. Cheers

    Hey Bill, this is a long shot in the dark, but I assume this is NOT related to symptoms I have seen on the official forums and here on Reddit such as...

    • Insanely fast queue times for Competitive (like within 5 seconds) (This may be intended, but it is different than past seasons.)
    • Competitive Matches not filling up with enough players and going into "Waiting for Players" mode
    • Players attempting to cancel a Competitive queue getting penalized with leaver penalties.

    I will note, I am seeing this mostly in Americas region reports obviously. I have been trying to investigate this for a couple of days now seeing if something changed since season 17 started. So if there is any information you have, it would be awesome.

    The issue here was just failing hardware. This wouldn’t be related to anything like you described. I’ll pass your notes on to our server team to look into if they’re not already. Thx
