Elimination round issues are currently being looked at as we continue to work through the S3 update!
Not silly at all! Who knows how the inner machinations of Steam might work.
However yes, the issue is still present. I've figured out the real culprit however: pressing the Invite button twice in quick succession replicates the issue. e.g. pressing the P button on the keyboard and the Y button on my Xbox controller simultaneously.
So strange, still not able to replicate it, but still something 100% worth taking a look at as it might affect more players. As this kind of sits outside of launch bugs - would you mind sending this through as a support ticket with those details? :) then our team can start making logs on anyone else who is having the issue as well!
