Today we're deploying a small patch aimed at improving latency and connections for some users.
⚙️ General
- Fixed an issue where corrupted UTF-8 characters in party metadata could cause players to disconnect from backend services and become unable to queue for matchmaking
- Began our phased rollout of Global Accelerators with Europe.
- Player traffic will be routed through optimized regional relay points before reaching our game servers, which should reduce latency, improve connectivity in areas with unstable routing, and better protect servers from direct attacks

Improved ping reporting in the UI
