When everyone logs in simultaneously the servers feel it. Here is what happens and what you can do about it.

When a large group of players relogs at the same time, the authentication and matchmaking servers absorb a sudden burst. This causes temporary queue delays and occasional disconnections. The system recovers within a few minutes but matches attempted during the surge may suffer from connection instability.
Dedicated game servers with specific names like comet catcher occasionally go offline for maintenance or due to load issues. Check the server status channel in official community spaces for real-time updates. Do not queue to a server showing as offline as the match will disconnect mid-game.
If you experience repeated disconnections during peak hours, wait a few minutes before requeuing. The servers process queued login requests in order and relogging resets your place in line. Staying patient produces faster results than cycling the client.
Server issues frustrate everyone equally. Creed of Champions members use downtime productively, discussing strategy and reviewing replays while waiting for services to recover. The community turns technical problems into learning opportunities.
