When selecting "Play Deadlock" and leaving focus from the game (such as through alt+tab or clicking on another monitor), on returning to focus on the game the roster can be exited with ESC and it will skip the previous screen of mode selection and return control directly to the hideout character. When accessing any other menu in the hideout such as spectating or "learn to play", the roster screen will override that menu and take its place. The other way I've been able to get normal menus to return is to accept matchmaking and cancel.
Cannot replicate reliably. Not sure what the exact trigger is. It has not happened without the game losing focus but I've only been able to replicate a handful of times.
Attached files show the initial discovery and the second clip is also a demo of it overriding other menus when I was cutting the first clip. Loss of game audio indicates loss of focus on window.
