Critical disconnects to lobby every 1-3 minutes

[reiayanami00]

As per title, when in game (lanes or brawl) I experience constant disconnects back to lobby after about 1-3 minutes of gameplay. Before the complete disconnect I experience network stuttering and rubber-banding until it reaches a complete freeze and disconnects. When in lobby I am able to reconnect, but this just results in the same behavior until the next disconnect and so on.

After testing this issue is not related to my network or hardware, all of those are working just fine. This is a Deadlock/Steam specific issue.

What's interesting is that I usually play Deadlock with a friend in my party. When playing like that I experience these disconnects extremely rarely. When queuing alone, it is almost certain that I will experience it.

I am running Deadlock on Arch LInux (up to date) on Gnome Wayland with an AMD GPU with Proton Experimental.

I remember reading a thread on the bug forum (cannot find it anymore) that experienced similar issues and they discussed that it might have something to do with game's connection to Steam. I did not understand what they meant so I had no idea how to apply the fix.

If there is other information I can gather to make this issue clearer please let me know how to do that.

Also, it would be very kind if I got my matchmaking penalty removed as I have no control over this

These bug threads seem to experience the same issue as me:
1. Crashing to in-game lobby every minute or so | This is the bug thread I mention in my post, the videos attached are close to how the disconnects function for me but without the stuttering. They provide more information related to this issue in their thread, relating to Steam connection.
2. Randomly booted from lobby twice during match
3. Disconnecting Every Match

These bug reports seem related, but their issue is that they are unable to reconnect to the game after being disconnected to lobby:
4. Disconnect in the middle of a brawl+unable to join a new match+penalty for "abandoning"+game unable to launch | They experienced problems with Steam being unable to sync, which seems related to bug 1.
5. endless reconnect bug
6. Sudden disconnect, incapable of rejoining
