Recent Connection issues

Have recently been having very high network issues with Deadlock and can't quite identify why. Have gone through a full network reset, everything seems to run smoothly, but about 5 minutes into a a Deadlock match I'll start to receive incredible packet loss upwards of 20%, and also slows other things on the network (like discord).

Have briefly tested this on other games and don't seem to have any issues afaik. May be a completely personal issue, but it hasn't been nearly this egregious until the more recent patches. Have validated files and reinstalled at least twice now and am not sure what is wrong at this point.

To add on to this, I'm using an ethernet connection and I've tested it both with AND without a VPN, with no change.

I am also having pretty much this exact same issue. Seems to be more prominent the first time spawnables load in (2:00, 5:00, 6:00, 8:00, 10:00) or whenever a new ability is used. Makes me feel like perhaps it is a shader issue but it happens every match for me, not just the first one.
