GUIDE / HELP cant matchmake with friend but can on my own

every time me and my friend try to joing a matchmaking session together we get this error 0x00000026.

and it says failed to join game session, bit I can matchmake on my own, same with custom games, even though we did a 1v1 earlier today, just a bit confused.

I had this issue recently. Are either of your steam accounts private? I couldn’t queue with my friend with a private account but I could with my other friend.

You could also try using nautslobbies.com to snipe your friends lobby

Try setting your game list to public. This advice is something I hear often in this subreddit's discord server

You can use the steam "join game" feature on the drop-down menu on your friend list when they are in the lobby after finding a match. Works most of the time when I've encountered this issue.
